t LAKE ELIZABETH, Oct. 31.-Our
creamery has received q new coat OF
paint, which appropriately enough is
yellow, the color of butter, and it now
looks fine to the eye. The butter

ed to q coat of paint, which is a great
impro vement to the looks of our little

paint 'ng, but the blacksmith is too
busy insideto pay any attention to
outside appearances.
The Baptist church is now supplied
with song books so that every singer
can have one. This will make great
improvement in the singing.
We have enjoyed sleighride since

day to try conclusions with the grid
iron heroes representing tho High
school OF that burg. When the gams
was called shortly before O'Clock q
considerable crowd had gathered on
the side lines-nesrly all enthusiastic
rooters for the Litchfeld tesm. Litch-
field kicked of to Willmar and the
visitors Immediately began to push
the ball down the field at most live
ly rate BY series OF line bucks; but
the home team soon got possession. of
the ball on tumble and by vigorous
and persistent smashing Of Willmar's
line made a touchdown within Eve
minutes after the kickoff, but failed
to kick goal During the remainder
OF the game no score was made by
either side. The two teams surged
backward and forward over the rough
field, but neither was able to gain
much on the other.
Litchfeld had the heaviest team.
McCusker, their right tackle, looked
like giant among the smaller boys
and was he who made the big gains.
Willmar made some particularly fine
end plays and for an uncoached team
their interfe, ence was good. Both

GROWTH OF FORSYTH

growth since it attained the dignity
of county seat upon the creation of
Rosebud County out of the western
portion Of Custer County, about four
years ago. It now has population
of 1900 and tits attracting new in.
habitants and business enterprises con-

financial needs OF the community, the
third having been organ ,zed within
the last two or three months.

Forsyth and Rosebud County
As Seen by Outsiders

The following article on the resour-
ces and industries Of Forsyth and
Rosebud County was taken from the
Sunday edition of the Butte Miner.
While it does not enter into detail it
takes general survey Of the advance
ment made in the last four years by
Forsyth and Rosebud County:
At the freight division point half
way between Glendive and Billings,
the town of Forsyth was located at
the building Of the Northern Pacific
railroad. It was located in the heart
of one of the most productive terri.
tories in Montana, the development of
which is making it city Of high rank
commercially and socially.
Northward to the Missouri river an
expause Of fine grazing land, traversed
by the Porcupines, Lodge Poles and
Dry rivers, which mingle with the
waters of the Yellowstone at points
tributary to Forsyth. Fine ranches

the business men of the city. Lines
are projected for next spring eastward
to Miles City, and westward to the
Grow reservation. AT the Custer
County city connection will be made
with other lines to give communica-
tion with the outside world; the pro-
posed line west will be wholly for ru-
raj service.
A NEW DEVELOPMENT
A rural telephone system is q COM
paratively new development. but in
the growing agricultural empire Of the
eastern part of the state it promises
to achieve the same triumph that it
has in the Mississippi valley country.
Forsyth is fortunate in being the
pioneer of such promotion. The agri-
culturisJ in these days is pretty we'll
cared for, anyway. With telephone
service and daily mail delivery over
the rural routes, he is growing cit.fied
while reaping luxuries fresh from the
farm.

dot these valleys, and along the yell
lowstone river the line Of improved
lands is continuous to the eastern bor-
der of Rosebud County. South of the
Yellowstone are Otter and Annals
creeks, and the Rosebud river, with
it's fertile valley extending to the In
dian reservations It is the oldest SET
tied valley in eastern Montana, amply
irrigated throughout, and the wealth
from it's lands is poured through For
syth's commercial channels. Fifteen
miles from Forsyth is the boundary of
the Grow Indian reservation, soon to
be opened, and the Rosebud city Will
take care of good portion of the i'm
mense trade originating on the new
ranches.
RURAL TELEPHONE SYSTEM
Forsyth is fortunate in having q
lasting link by which this rich terri
tory is tied firmly to her. The For
syth Telephone company has lines
through the Rosebud valley, which
extend eighty five miles to Ashland OF
the Tongue river in the southern par
of the county. Practically all th'
ranches along the line have taken ad
vantage of this rural service, whicl

and, in order that it might borrow
the entire banking capital of the coun-
try, the national banks were created
with a preference in the matter of
taxation, which forced all banks then
existing to become national banks and
purchase government bonds as the
basis on which to do business-prac-
tically forced loan by the govern
r;ent. AS salve to heal the hurt Of
said forced loan, they were given
many privileges, and these have since
been greatly increased. Let us take a
bank with million dollar capital and
see what are it's profits and the sources
thereof: First, it invests it's capital Of
a million dollars in government bonds
which, we will say, pay two per cent,
and depositing these with the treasury
it gets a million dollars in bank notes
which it lends to it's customers on
short time, taking out the interest in
advance, so that at the end of the
year it amounts to at least ten per
cent on it's capital-total to date,
welve per cent-then, also, it receives
deposits, and a bank with that capital
should have deposits of at least four
million dollars, experience having
shown that a bank may with safety
make short loans of at least rs per
cent of it's deposits, so it will have
three millions to lend and, lending in
the same way as it's own funds would
realize an amount which would be
thirty per cent on its capital of one
million dollars, total to- date-forty-
two per cent. This, all will say, is a
very good profit, but the finaicial vul-
ture sees other feed. The United
States government levies taxes, gen.
orally, in excess of it's needs and when
the money produced by these taxes
has piled up until the government no
longer has storage room for it, it Sc
lects favored national banks as gov

Editor Homiletic Review, New York city:

Editor Homiletic Review, New York City:
Dear Sir: In response to your request for
opinion on the subject Of gifts like that pro-
posed by Mr.. Rockefeller to the American Board
of Foreign Missions, beg to say that the subject
Is one Of exceeding Importance and one upon the
right decision of which much depends. Rev.
Washington GLADDEN. of Columbus, Ohio, has very
forcefully presented several or the objections
which may be urged to the acceptance of such
gift, and DR.. Epiphanius Wilson has, so far as
have seen, presented the most extreme view on the
other side. There several distinctions to be
drawn in the consideration of the subject
First-We should distinguish between the &C.
ceptance of money from a penitent wrong-doer
and the acceptance of money from one who is not
only not penitent but persistent in his course, and
to aliappearances denies thathe is guilty of wrong
doing. We must also distinguish between the
acceptance of gifts from those who are dead, and
therefore no longer personally interested, and the
acceptance OF gifts from those who alive and
who may have a selfish purpose to serve. We may
also draw a distinction between contributions that
are made in such way as to raise no obligation in
return, and those which place the receiver under
obligation to the donor. For instance there would
scarcely be a dispute to the wisdom Of accept
Ing gift from who brought 1t to the church as
result OF the working of his own conscience and
because 1t was impossible to return the money to
the ones from whom he had taken it. In such a
case the gift would be accepted and applied to
some good use, but the minister accepting the
same would not only be free to condemn the meth
DDS by which the money was accumulated, but
could use the incident as an argument against the
accumulation of money in such way by others.
The acceptance of bequest after the death of
the donor might be justified even though the
money was acquired in a way that the church
would not be willing to defend, although in this
case there might be some doubt as to the wisdom
of accepting, because of the encouragement that
the church's action might give to others still liv-
ing and engaged In accommodating money in the
same way as fis
"a 49,
II one attending a church deposits money in
the contribution box, his identity being unknown,
his contribution imposes obligation upon the
church, and there would be disposition to in
quire into the source from which it came If.
however, the money came from one in regular at
tendance upon the church and came in such an
amount as to make the minister hesitate about
condemning the source from which it came or the
occupation by which it accumulated, ques-
ton would be raised as to the wisdom of accepting
it.
Among the things to be considered in decid-
ing this question are, first, the effect that the
acceptance Of the gift would have upon the donor:
second, the effect that the acceptance of the gift
would have upon the donee and third, the effect
