S. public health tervice mosquito expert, arrived here today from Greenwood, Mississippi, to take part in the Bismarck-Mandan conference at the Association of Com merce 2:30 Wednesday afternoon, to'Work out a program to combat the mosquito pest along the Missouri and Heart rivers. The health officers of the two cities ind other officials, along with repre sentatives of the service and com mercial clubs and the state health department, will be in the conference, with A. L. Bavone, state sanitary en gineer, to preside. ■ The lmminency of the mosquito pfggue was announced by Dr. C. E. Stockhouse, today. He said he ex pects at least three crops of the pests unless a way can be found to suppress them in their breeding grounds along the rivers and in the lush grass that will grow where there is moisture. He said they maye be expected to ar rive in strength by the end of the week, as, on a visit to rew Rockford the other day, he was freely bitten while playing golf. . Joseph Spies will be in the confer ence as a representative of the Lions club. He tried to put a quietus on the pests last summe - and had a fine program mapped out and men hired to execute the plans, when the move ment fell flat through lack of finan cial support. He is hopeful that the program will go through this year.

I j 1. This is Bismarck’s only opportunity to get a building which will meet ( I the community needs at a reduced cost to the city taxpayer. I j 2. Your vote Qn this question will, show whether you want the city to ( ■ go forward or backward. I I Self-interest sways the votes of most citizens—and it should. If I j you don’t vote in your own interest who will? It is to your interest, you, [ 1 fathers and mothers, you, small home owners, you people in moderate ! I I circumstances, to support this project. 11 It will make the city a better place in which to rear your children; r 1 it will increase the value of your property and insure a ready market for it in case you want to sell. It will mean more jobs in Bismarck for Bis -9 marck people and for the young men and women who are growing up here. jS Look over the communities which are drying up and withering away. Jn Do you want Bismarck to be like them? Would you like to own property {#■ in a backward city? The small tax which will be paid by the average prop* Of erty owner for this building is an investment which will bring heavy re nj turns. It PAYS to live in a live, growing town. It will pay YOU, whether fjl you own property or whether you rent. It will help you increase your jfl income. I The Crossroads B Friday morning Bismarck will stand at the crossroads. On one hand Qj * lies the road to civic progress, prosperity and a growing city. j On the other hand lies the road toward civic sluggishness, low prop- i B erty values, a dead city. j Sj The American Legion knows that Bismarck people are progressive. j Jn The membership of the American Legion reaches into every walk of life, I Uj every district in the community. We know by talking with our friends i B that they are supporting the Memorial Community Building. The Legion j is supporting it because it will be a good thing for the town in which the jS Legionnaires live aiyl in which thby are rearing their children. j | The Cost to You ] ■ I So that every voter may be informed the Legion has prepared a table I j | showing what different values of property will pay for this building in the j | way of taxes. I v I Take the value of your property, look at the table, and learn the truth. I ■ I To most voters it means less than the cost of a few neckties. Learn the | | facts. They are right. When you know what’s right you will vote right. j I j Value, of Amount of j j 1 Property Annual Tax ij $ 1,000 ....$.60 jfi 1,500 ••••••• »••,.. .90 l!

CAW DAUGHTERS ENDORSE MEMORIAL Additional support for the memo rial building project was voted last America. After discussing the project in detail they voted unanimously to support it and to aid the American Legion in its campjaign in every way possible. In their resolution of endorsement the Catholic Daughters of America said: “America has grown great among the nations because of the spirit of progress which has imbued the ma jority of its citizens. The same broad principles of tolerance and opportu nity for all which placed the United States in the front rank among na tions should be exercised in building up the community in which we live. “The same unselfish patriotism which actuated our boys during the war has inspired them now in an effort to help make Bismarck a big ger and better city in which to live and to rear children. They deserve the support of everyone now* just as they did when they went forth to fight for the freedom of the world and the safety of our homes. “The memorial community building is firmly based upon sound public policy. It is economically feasible and its cost to the average citizen will be small. We feel that Bismarck will benefit materially if this project is endorsed at the polls next Friday. For that reason we arc going to sup port it with our votes and work in its behalf.” WOMAN SHOOTS SELF Henning, Minn., May 28.—(A*)—Mias Dora Lofgren, 35, shot and killed her self. ' y >'* * ■ - v CITY WARNED ABOUT MEMORIAL RUMORS Legion Denies That Building Will Exceed Cost They Have Estimated Warning against erroneous state ments which are said to have been circulated about the coat of the pro posed memorial community building was issued today by the American Legion committee in charge of the campaign. “So far as we know, no one has challenged the accuracy of the Le gion's statements regarding the cost of this building to the taxpayers of the city of Bismarck,” said R. J. Kamplin, committee chairman. “Certain politicians, for reasons un known to us, are reported to be cir culating rumors that the cost will be in excess of the amount Stated by the Legion. These statements should be investigated carefully. Voters should not be deceived by wild claims. The Legion has gone carefully into this matter and has told the truth regard ing it. The statements contained in the Legion's campaign booklet are correct and can be verified. “The reputation of the American Legion has been staked on the truth of the statements we have made to the people of Bismarck in this cam paign. We have stuck to the truth. There is no reason why we should do otherwise. The proposition is one which should stand or fall on its merits without regard to baseless rumors and Inaccurate statements. We are confident that it will com mand the support of every citizen who is interested in his city, him fam ily, and in rearing his children in a better town.” Announcement was made today at American Legion campaign head quarters that a meeting will be held tomorrow night at the Wachter school building. Dr. F. B. Strauss will be the principal speaker at the meeting at the Wachter school and Rev. Father John 81ag probably will be the speak er at the Rlchholt school building at 7:30 o’clock Thursday night.

For they force lubricant, under tremendous pressure, to every vital chassis bearing on your car.' But—merely forcing lubricants to those bearings is not enough. You must use the right kind of lubricant. Cheap, un known “greases'* are relatively as dangerous as no lubrication at all. Because scores of such “greases” were suddenly offered on every side as “fitted to the Alemite Systems”—many of them of such poor quality that it is virtually impossible to force them into the bear ings to be lubricated—the makers of the Alemite Systems, in protection to them selves and the public, developed special lubricants for use in the Alemite Systems. Those lubricants come as the result of years of experiment. They mark the latest automotive science, known as chassis lubrication. They were developed by the ALEMITE people themselves in WE ARE THE DEALERS WHO NORTH DAKOTA: BISMARCK— Infstad* Garage Stair Motor Co. Myers Service Station MANDAN— Western Motor Co.
