The early solution as to the iden-

seems more than likely to be de-
layed Indefinitely. William Robin
son, %, the "ringleader," who was
shot and seriously wounded in the
hold-up by Daniel G.. Sullivan,
prominent WATERFOWL druggist,
stills remains defiant. He has re-
fused pointblank to assist the

were. When informed several
times that his chances of living
were not considered very bright, he
only laughed at, the dicks" and
remarked that whether he lived or

departure from the city Of several
young men well known in police
circles has prevented the interviews
on which the police had hoped to
obtain valuable information.

NAME LOCAL WOMAN
TO HEAD CLUBS IN
BISMARCK DISTRICT
Mrs. Florence Davis is Elected
President at Convention
Il In Garrison

Mrs. Florence H. Davis, Bismarck.
was elected president of the eighth
district Of the North Dakota Fed
Grafton of Women's clubs at the fl
nal session Of the eighteenth annual
convention in Garrison Wednesday
afternoon. She succeeds Mrs. James
II. Cooper, Valley City, district pres
ident for the last four years.
Mrs. T. H. Steffen, Wilton, was
reelected secretary treasurer and
Mrs. John w. Robinson, Garrison,
district historian. Mrs. Cooper was
named to the state nominating COM
mittee. Other district officers whose
terms do not expire this year are
Mrs. +. @. Freeberg, Mercer, vice
president; and Mrs. George E. Berg,
Courtenay, corresponding secretary.
The pioneer mother service, which
took the form of an original playlet
called 1.-THE Three Wishes" written
by Mrs. Davis, was high spot of
the afternoon meeting. It honored
Mrs. Mary Wilson, Courtenay, the
eldest pioneer mother present at the
convention. Taking part in the play
iStS IIC eucLll0 VI WHICH was D0SoO
on the fairy story Of the magic car
pet, were Mrs. Wilson, who had the
role Of pioneer mother; Mrs. Flor
ence Davis, who impersonated a
school teacher in costume of the
early days; Mrs. Lewis ]. Mann of
Washburn, who took the part of a
young daughter, wearing a costume
of the pioneer period; and Mrs. Al
fred Zuger, who was dressed as an
Indian woman in the tribal robes
which she received when she was
adopted by the Sioux Indian tribe.
She was introduced by her Indian
name, "Tarca- Luta- Win" The pro-
logue was read by Mrs. Berg of
Courtenay, daughter Of Mrs. Wilson,
and accomplishments were played by
Mrs. E. I. Schultz Of Washburn.
Mrs. Wilson Honored

industrial conditions, was one Of the
speakers during the Wednesday
morning session.
Speaking on 1--WE and the Com
munity," she discussed the necessity
for organisation in the community
to take care of welfare problems and
emphasized the fact that in this eco
nomic crisis everything possible must
be done to get the greatest value out
Of every dollar spent.
She called attention to the two
fold responsibility Of the welfare
worker and his organization, which
is first q duty to the family needing
aid and Second a duty to the tax
payer. She showed how lack of or
ganization is productive of waste to
both the person aided and to the tax
payer and stressed the need for a
carefully-planned program of wei
fare activities which will guard
against making people dependents.
Two exhibits in the convention hall
received much attention. One was
Vic UISploy VI IAc JuIAVl CAuUSS al
ranged by Mrs. Zuger, state junior
membership chairman. A feature Of
this was a pioneer mother doll,
dressed by the members of the Bis
marck Junior Study club, which will
be entered at Seattle in the doll con-
test sponsored by the general feder-
alton. Each junior club has been
asked to enter a doll dressed to rep.
resent some nation or historical era.
Painting Is Shown
Another interesting item of the
exhibit, composed of club papers and
programs, was an oil painting en-.
titled "The Wedding Of Hiawatha,'
the work of Susan Firecloud, a mem.
Der of the local Sakakawea club.
In the other display were the clut
scrapbooks, in which were placed
clippings Of newspaper and maya
zine stories relating to activities Of
the clubs. These were judged dur
ing the convention, with the Wash
burn Study club placing first. Judg.
ing was on the basis Of content and

amount Of space and originality Of

Second place went to the Turtle
Lake Woman's Study club. In the
scrapbook cover contest the Mercer
Study club received first prize and
the Wilton Woman's club second.
The Bismarck Study club was the
winner in the Indian essay contest,
sponsored by the federation, and the
essay will be entered at the state
convention in Devils Lake this fall.
An address by w. C. Gull, Garri-
son attorney, on washington, the
Man." in which Washington's quail
ties as an American citizen were
emphasized, was the concluding fea-
ture Of the afternoon program. Fol-
lowing it were committee reports,
