The paper wasn't talk- ing about a geographic •feature, but rather, a person. That person was Queen Marie of Romania, and she visited North Dakota on Nov. 1 ,1926. The Independent reported that visitors of the q ueen brought food, including homemade rolls, "which reports say she stowed away without butter," and five mallards. The Inde- pendent continued, "The good queen of Romania just naturally gorged herself, right out where everyone could see her do it, and if this is not evidence of a royal gorge, then North Dakotans don't know natural or un- natural wonders when they see them." The train darted through North Dakota in one day on its way to the W est C east, but Queen Marie made it a point to stop at various intervals to allow locals on board. The queen was extremely interested in the farm- ing conditions and techniques that might be used in developing her own country's agriculture. She also showed much interest for the home- makers, and was eager to learn all she could from these common peo- ple. While most of her trip concen- trated on the farmers of North Dakota, Queen Marie did make spe- cial appearances in Mandan, Dickin- ! son and Medora. In Mandan, Queen Marie stopped to meet with the Sioux Indians, who honored her with a headdress and welcomed her into their tribe. The queen's next visit was Dick- inson. There, she left the train dressed in traditional costume to pay tribute to the Romanian people who settled there. The queen then pro- ceeded on to Medora. There, a rodeo was held in honor of the queen. She and her children Princess Ileana and Prince Nicholas dressed in riding garb and rode in the rodeo. The people of North Dakota must have made quite an impression on the queen, for at the end of this one- day visit to the state, the queen said, "It has been one of the happiest days of my life."

Grace Church host By ,lane Cook Reporter Grace Church of Beach hosted the 49th Annual Western Conference on Tuesday and Wednesday, Oct. 24 and 25. Usually held in Billings, Mont., the conference is also held in differ- ent churches on occasion. This year Grace Church offered its facilities. Western Conference members con- sist of pastors and lay delegates. The conferences started in 1968 with different themes each time. "This year's theme was 'Passing the Baton,' standing for the passing of the Gospel on to others," Grace Church Pastor Ben Baker explained. Churches from North Dakota, Wyoming, Montana and Idaho are affiliated with the conference. Tues- day evening also included an ordi- nation of one of its members. In charge of the event this year was Pastor Steve Struts of Faith Evangelical Church of Billings, Mont. "Thirty churches connect with each other once a year to do annual ministry business, inspire each other in their Christi an faith, and sharpen their ministry skills," Struts said. "The community of Beach and Grace Church h as welcomed us with such warm hospitality. We really appreci- ated all they've done." Western Conference Shown is the ordination of Rory Adams, Pastor of Hope Church, Billings, Mont., at Grace Church in Beach. (Courtesy Photo) new Realities and myths about North Dakota newspapers As a trade association for the 90 North Dakota daily and weekly !i newspapers, we want to address in simple language the truth about newspapers in North Dakota. Your local newspaper is here for the long run. Some pundits and so- called experts are already writing the obituary for the newspaper industry. We say: Not so fast. Newspapers march on not only as news leaders and innovators, but as stalwart businesses in commtinities they serve, contributing to the well-being of Main Street and North Dakota. • Newspapers remain a dominant media source in North Dakota. Newspapers in this state have an estimated readership of more than 500,000, plus a growing on-line audience. 9 out of 10 North Dakotans read their local newspaper. Nationwide, more tfian 104 million adults read a newspaper every day, except on on Sunday when readership grows to 115 million. That's more people than watch the Super Bowl (94 million), American Idol (23 million), or the evening news (65 million). • The biggest reason newspapers are read is because you rely on your newspaper to know what's happening in your community. Obituaries, weddings, high school sports, city hall, babies, arrests, yard sales, church meetings, little league baseball, community events, engagements, town business, govermnent public notices, even the ads ... the list goes on and on. Your newspaper connects you with your community. No other medium provides what newspapers provide. (Ever see obituaries on TV?) It's a myth that the Internet and other sources will provide news if North Dakota newspapers aren't here to do the job. The reality is that newspapers make a larger investment in newsgathering than any other medium. In fact, most of the news you get from other media originated with reporting done by newspapers. Sometimes broadcasters read the news directly from the newspaper! This is a time when newspapers are transforming. The industry is adapting and moving forward. We look forward to the future! We look forward to providing news, information and advertising that help connect and build the communities we serve.
