By dint of convincing panto mine and a thorough knowledge of the manual sign language, Fos ter convinced several restaurant proprietors that he was a penni less deaf mute. Thoroughly tak en in by the deception, and mov ed by a sense of charity, they have been providing the alleged unfortunate with meals for the last three or four days.

MONDAY, JUNE 15, 1931 Good - they've got to be good! -^Ma^ X BO|» C Montana Resident Criticizes North Dakota’s Road Marking Donald Kopriva, a storekeeper of Hardin, Mont., doesn’t think much of the way in which North Dakota marks its roads. He was heading eastward early Monday morning when his car went into the ditch at a turn just east of Sterling and burned up. He managed to extricate his wife and four children from the car before any of them were in jured but said it was a close call. Kopriva contends that poor road marking caused his acci dent. Route No. 10 makes a sharp turn to the left just east of Sterling, he said, whereas another road continues straight east. The only marker is a small sign read ing "No. 10, L,” he said, and con tended that it isn't large enough or conspicuous enough to catch the eye of a driver. He also ex pressed the view that the sign is too close to the turn and that it should be in yellow, the standard warning color. His observations, he told The Tribune, were made in charge of arrangements and Mr, Victor Boe, Finley, of registrations. Government Issues Census of Drainage North Dakota has 1,058,123 acres of land involved in drainage enterprises, according to data compiled during the 1930 census. Only 13 other states have more than a million acres listed in this classification, Minnesota lead You don’t worry Sixty... seventy... eighty miles if needed. You don’t worry—you know there is a sure hand at the throttle! And just as casually you light a chesterfield —knowing that every safeguard for its quality, purity and good taste has long since been per* hesterfield in the interests of safer driving and for the benefit of other motorists. A woman who lives nearby, Kopriva said, told him that she gave emergency care to four dif ferent parties whose automobiles had left the road at that point within the last year because of the imperfect marking. In his case, Kopriva said, he missed the sign entirely but his 11-year-old son, riding in the front seat with him, called his attention to it. He applied his brakes and tried to make the turn but was unable to do so, going into the ditch and turning over. He would have been better off, he said, had he continued on the road extending eastward from the turn, since he quickly would have realized that he was off the main highway. The Kopriva family were en route to St. Cloud. Minn., to visit with relatives. The car was in sured. ing the list with 11,357,883 acres. Cap ital invested in North Dakota drain age projects is $3,148,819 while Minne sota has $63,517,687 invested. Most of the North Dakota drainage projects are shown to be in the Red River Valley.
