DEATH VALLEY
UNKNOWN DEAD
ARE H0NORED
Cross Erected to Memory OF
Unlucky Pioneers-Eas-
ter Service Held

Stove Pipe Wells, Calf, April 49,
R)-A great wooden cross, fashioned
out of pieces of the abandoned
wagons of unlucky pioneers, today
marked the site of Death Valleys
first Easter sunrise service and re-
manned as a monument to the deserts
unknown dead"
sMounted atop the highest sand
dune on the edge of the desert near
here, the cross was dedicated as
dawn spread over the desert yester-
day. Men and women representing
several denominations commemOrated
the resurrection and paid tribute to
those who died in the sandy wilder
ness with Easter worship and eulogies
of the pioneers.
As the eastern sky turned pink
behind the Funeral range mountains
the notes of a cOntraltO solo, The
Dawn" began the unusual rites. The
worshippers, many of them tanned
miners and prospectors to whom a
church is strange thing, bowed their
heads in prayer.
Put Wild Flowers in Dunes
Women of Inyo county, where many
of the pioneers settled, scattered wild
flowers over the yellow dunes which
are Uttered with the bleached bones
Of both man and beast.
Benjamin F. Bledsoe, former ted
crat judge, eulogized those who had
fallen in the desert as we'll as those
who had successfully crossed it. A
floral wreath was left at the foot
of the cross by the worshippers.
Then for probably the first time in
it's existence, the strains of Onward,
Christian Soldiers" arose from the
treacherous valley.

Bureaus Objects

set forth by its sponsors, are as fol-
lows:
Betterment of trade conditions for
its members in the city of Bismarck
and its trade territory; equitable
legislation; cheaper insurance; mu-
tual protection against dead-beats
check artists and advertising graft
ers; securing and disseminating to
it's members any and all proper infor-
nation which may be of value, inter
est or protection to them.
The Bureau is a clearing house
which is being used increasingly by
all members, it's sponsors say. They
point out that it has become a part
Of the community which daily is prov
ing itself to be more and more indis-
pensable to business as conducted in
the modern way.
The Bureau is fully in sympathy
with the buying public. say its spon-
sors. for by assisting the merchants
in eliminating the Improbable ac-
count, it lowers the cost Of doing bus
mess and consequently reduces the
cost of living.

two Catholics and one jew. The
assistant to the, governor, he says,
is a Protestant, Republican and a
32d degree Mason.
Mr.. Marshall argued that the
Roman Catholic church was commit
ted to the doctrine Of intolerance,
and in this connection he quoted the
Catholic encyclopedia. The governor
said that "dogmatic intolerance"
meant that inside of the Catholic
church Catholics are to be intoler-
ant of any variance from the dogma
of the church. He quoted further
from the encyclopedia to that effect.
AS to the syllabus of Pope Plus TX,
quoted by Mr.. Marshall on the mat
ter of possible conflict between
church and state, the governor said
it had been declared by Cardinal
Newman to have no dogmatic force.
"YOu have no more right to ask
me to defend as part of my faith
every statement coming from aprel-
ate" wrc.e the governor, than
should have to ask you to accept as
an article of your religious faith
every statement of an Episco pal bish-
op."
VI NNHSIOUS OCicUOVu
The governor quoted statements by
Catholic American prelates defend
ing equality Of all religions before
the law.
II think you have taken your thesis
from the limbo Of defunct controver-
sies.' the governor wrote in quoting
Archbishop Bowling on the question
of church and state.
The governors letter said that he
was not a theologian but on theolog-
ical matters involved in the contro-
versy he had taken counsel with one
whose patriotism would not be ques-
tioned-the Rev. Francis P. Duffy
chaplain of the 165th. New York
regiment in the world war. The
l65th was composed almost wholly
Of Catholics.
The governor argued that the an
nulment of the marriage of the Duke
and Duchess Of Marlborough had
been to restore individual status in
the church, not to interfere with civil
courts.

Thanksgiving Waiting for Christmas
Delaware turkeys for Thanksgiving
were as fine as at any time in the
past twenty years. Those that were
not disposed Of for Thanksgiving are
being kept and fattened for the yule-
tide season. According to pr. Frank
Hare, poultry pathologist Of the State
Board Of Agriculture there have been
no cases of disease among turkeys rs
ported to him this fall. All Of the
raisers reported normal success with
their focks and because turkeys are
more delicate bird to raise than
chickens the condition this fall has
been better than for many years. Re
Gently DR.. Hare received two chickens
suffering from typhoid fever They
were isolated cases and through pre-
ventive measures taken BY the grow
ers the remainder Of the chickens il
the fiocks were not affected. Accord
ing to DR.. Hare, typhoid fever is apt
to follow white diorrhea which is one
of the dreaded ailments Of the poul-
trymen of Delaware. When chicken
suffers from either of these diseases
they should be removed from the flocE
~ that the remainder Of the chickens
may not contract the disease. TyphoiC
fever has been found in baby chicks
few days old, the disease having
been passed on from the mother
Wherever this has happened the chicl
has failed to live. The work of test
ing focks is proceeding steadily anC
at this time there are more than 100,
900 chickens that are being supervised
BY the State Board Of Agriculture.
