VOLUME XXVI. Eight Pages BEACH, GOLDEN VALLEY COUNTY, N. D., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1934 All Home Print / ml NUMBER ........ I.LL Turkey "Got His In Festivities Held In Golden Valley County During Thanksgiving Holiday Carved In Majority of Homes; Many Colorful Gather- ings Give Thanks For Blessings; President Shares Day With Warm Springs Patients. o, MRS ARNOLD Thursday voiced thanks for past joys • and said a prayer for the future. Many throughout the land attende0 church services before they turned to turkey carving and merry-making around their own firesides. Presi- dent Roosevelt led the way, wielding a knife on a huge bird for the young patients at his Warm Springs health resort. Judging from the reports of local dinner parties on the national Thanksgiving Day, one and all were Tesolved to pool their joys with their families and friends. At least on that day all feasted, giving thanks for the blessing of being surrounded by loved ones. While there were un- doubtedly many parties of which we were unable to get reports, we ltst %hose of which we have learned. Among the gatherings was one at ~he Henry Hildebrandt home south of town, where the C. C. Holistein family, that of Mrs. Luclnda trlfers, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Ulfers, D. A. Cox and family and the members of the A. O. Mogle clan spent the day in the traditional manner. Farther south, at the Abe Beiers farm, Rev. and Mrs. Ellinger and the Misses Kuster and Newman from Beach, joined in the holiday feast- ing. At the Allen Kastlen home, a number of friends were guests of the day. North of the city Mr. aJad Mrs. Louis Zleisdorf were hosts to the Roy Davis and the Hugh Ross faro- flies; the Abernethy family cele- brated, having Byron Abernethy home from Dickinson for the week end. The Dewey Stecker family, the IS KILLED IN AUTO CRASH Price Arnold Driving Car In Collision With Car Was In- jured; Accident Occurred Near Forsyth, Mont. The entire community was greatly shocked to hear that Mrs. J. E. Arnold was killed and her son, Price, an attorney of Billings, seri- ously injured, in an automobile col- lision near Forsyth, Montana, late Tuesday afternoon. No definite in- formation is available concerning the tragic accident. Word received in Beach Wednesday is that Price is at a hospital in Terry, Montana and submitted to an operation that day to relieve his suffering. It is reported he is not seriously injured. It is alleged the car that collided with the Arnold machine was being driven "blind" and that is the im- mediate cause of the smashup. The Arnolds were enroute to Bill- ings, Mont., where Mrs. Arnold had been having hospital care from time to time this year. Both Mrs. Arnold and Price are very well known here and it is with the greatest sorrow that their mauy F~I Oewood group, Mr. and Mrs. friends hear this sad news.

RD M I SS KEOHANE ANNOUNCED l~arriage To John Halbkat Will Be Solemnized In St. John's Church on December Thirty-First. Saturday noon the John Keohane home was the scene of a pretty, one o'clock, three-course luncheon at which Mrs. Keohane announced the approaching marriage of her daugh- ter to John Halbkat, manager of the Beach Red Owl store. Places were set at three small tables grouped around a large one which was ~rtisticatly decorated with a bride-and-groom ce n terpicce flanked by tail tapers. On all the tables the color scheme was carried out in yellow and white, featured by lovely chrysanthemums. At each place the guests, all intimate friends of the bride, found small folders hearing on the inside the announce- ment "Marian and John, December 31st, 1934," which called forth a merry period of wishing the future bride all the happiness in the world. The latter part of the afternoon was spent in hemming dishtowels for the bride-to-be and discussing wedding plans, which will be pub- liched later. Mlss Keohane has lived all of her life in Beach, except for the years spent attending St. Catherine's col- lege in St. Paul, and her host of friends here and in the Twin Cities poin in congratulating Mr. Halbkat and wishing them both all Joy in the future.

Opponents of Gov.-Elect Moodie Raise Question of Qualificafion-I Word came out of Blsmarck Mon- day that Thomas H. Moodie, gov- ernor-elect of North Dakota, cannot qualify with the constitutional pro- vision that the governor "shall have resided five years next preceding the clcction within the state or terri- tory," and political opponents of the Democratic editor from Williston have taken legal steps to prevent his ~p~l~l~ of th~ g~vernor's office. The opposition are of the opinion, based on the allegation that Moodle voted in Minnesota in 1930, he is dl~quaiified to be governor of North Dakota, contending that Moodle has not resided here that length of time required by law to be eligible to hold the office of governor. Moodie is purported to have been a resident of Minnesota in 1930. J. W. Murphy, Fargo, attorney for Mr. Meodle. issued a statement Monday evening denying that the governor-elect lacked the qualifica- tions for the office. The conten- tions outlined in the statement doubt whether "a decision (of the people) in a state-wide election can now be challenged or set aside by the courts; whether ~he constitu- tional provision must be figured as a continuous or unbroken period o£ residence; whether Mr. Moodle's nomination in the spring by the people did not qualify him for elec- tion in the fall; whether absence from the state for a short period of time necessarily removed his status as a citizen of North Dakota. The first step in the~ to stop Meodles Certificate of~ ing issued by the state canvassing board, was the issuing of an order by Judge Fred Jansonius of the dis- trict court at the request of the State of North Dakota represented by P. O. Sathre, attorney general, to show cause why the court should not issue an injunction against the state canvassing board to prevent issurance of the certificate of elec- tion. ~.: The state canvassing board, whlch assembled Tuesday at 10;30" a, m. for the official checking o~ that ~tate vote, agreed that they shoeid ~not issue a certificate of .~leeiim~-to Moodie. because of the pdndlng court action. The board is composed of Secretary of State Robert Byrne, State Auditor Berta E. Baker, State Treasurer Alfred E. Dale, Attorney General P, O. Sathre and A.E. Thompson, superintendent of public instruction. Tuesday, December 11, was set for the hearing on the order to show cause by Judge Jansonius. At that time the state will be represented by Francis Murphy, Fargo attorney, who has been appointed special at- torney ~zener~ ~for the case I~ Sathre. Judge~Janscnim will not hear the case as he expects to beIn court elsewhere h~ the district. Governor office is con- of the state, some Walter wel- ford,on the ticket, would suc- ceed to January 1, while others areof the opinion that Olson will eontlnX~e to be governor until his successor is "duly elected and qualified.~!,::'A Special election is not a remote ~b{11ty in the event the courts de~e Moodie is disqualified, is the reading of the law, according to others supposed to be in the know on such matters. FIREMEN'S BALL PROVES MAGN'T FOR BIG CROWD Treasury Deficits of Organiz- ation Covered By The Fine Response of Public To Ticket Sale. The Beach Firemen are past masters in the art of entertainment as they showed Beach again last Wednesday evening. The occasion was their annual ball, held at the Legion hall, where about seventy couples danced until the small hours of Thanksgiving morning. The hall was nicely decorated with crepe paper streamers, and as each lady entered she was presented with a pretty carnation to wear. At the rear of the hall there was a bowl of fruit punch presided over by Dorothy Noyes and Betty Miller. A local orchestra, comprised of the Rakler brothers Stanley Smith and the Misses Maanum from Golva, was exceptionally fine, holding al- most the entire crowd until the "Home Sweet Home." Financially the dance refilled the empty coffers of the organization, letting them pay up their obligations and get on an even keel. Through the efforts of the various members over a hundred tickets were sold, and all deserve great credit for the success of the ball. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mierosioskl of south of Wibaux were in Beach Saturday, shopping. They became one of the many new subscribers from across the line to the Advance. HAIL AND FAREWELL W. F. Cushing, editor of the Advance, was taken, to the Bis- marck hospltal early Thanksgiv- ing morning by his daughter, M r s. Bradley Tillotscn. Mr. Cushing is suffering from a severe heart attack. Drs. Quain and Ramstad, of the Bismarck clinics, give us very little hope for Mr. Cushing's re- covery, stating that it is just a matter of days before the stout old heart will quietly lay down it's burden. He has put up a noble battle, refusing to take the doctor's demand for absolute rest and cessation of all work and relief from all worry. His heart and his soul were and are in the Beach Advance and in Golden Valley county and he scnda greetings and farewell to his friends in the county and thanks them all for the mighty fine things they have done for him and with him and for their fine support given him in the past fifteen years.
