The ladies of the G.. A. r. wish to
thank the merchants of Lancaster
for their unlimited good will in al
lowing the use of their nice china
ware for the Alumni banquet. Each
seemed to vie with the other to
make the affair a complete success.
The ladies say they virtually owned
McDonald's and Baxter & Diapers
stores.
Out of all the dishes loaned us
only one plate was broken, and no
spoons, knives or forks lost. The
committee who collected these
articles wish to thank the good peo-
pie who loaned them their lovely
s1lverware and for their offer to
assist in any way to make the
banquet a success. The Eastern Star
comes in for generous share of
the good wishes of the Circle for the
loan of their five dozen each of
knives, forks and spoons.
The ladies Of the G.. A. R. wish
the merchants, the O. E. S. and
citizens who helped to make this,
the first banquet given by the
Alumni Association, complete
scccess much happiness and pros
perity for their kindness.

meeting. After this part of the pro-
gram letters were read expressing
regret at inability to attend from
Almira Humphrey, Ed. Morse, Jos.
Wohlstenholme and Mrs. Stern.
The meeting was next called to
order to elect officers for next year.
Frank Schreiner said he did not
think we needed a new president
and when Mrs. Tenant asked for
a new one Walter Pollock nomin-
ated Mrs. Tenant, put the motion
to a vote and Mrs. Tenant was re-
elected. She asked for the same
secretary and vice president and
Burne Pollock and Virgil Showalter
were accordingly reelected. The
different classes next held meetings
to choose members of the executive
committee of the association and
then followed for a short time a
social chat among those present.
At about 11:45 the whole company
sang Aud Lang Syne and departed
for home. On all sides were heard
expressions of delight over the
good time enjoyed at the banquet
and also of hope that the Alumni
association would partake in many
more such enjoyable affairs. To
do SO is the hope Of all who were
present and if the good spirit which
prevailed Tuesday evening is kept
up the ASSOCIATION will probably see
many more such gatherings.

A HEART TO HEART TALK.

The average weekly editor usual
ly has his all invested in his news
paper property. That investment
generally represents from $1,000 to
$4,000. But it is worth more to the
town than five times the amount
expended in any local enterprise.
AS rule, the newspaper represents
to the outside world the town it.
self. Poor paper, poor town is the
usual verdict. 1t is therefore to the
interest of every town to support a
good newspaper. Not through local
pride alone, but for practical bust
ness reasons. A newspaper is con-
stantly doing ten times as much
for it's own town as 1t could ever
hope to get pay for-more than it
could charge for if it would. The
more prosperous paper is, the
more it is able to do. Show us a
good weekly paper, full of live local
advertisements with a general cir
culation throughout the country,
and we will show you an uptodate,
prosperous and progressive COM
munity. And we also show you a
paper that is worth five times as
much to the community every year
as the editor manages to make for
himself.

MONTANA WOOL SITUATION.
Further Advance in Price is Expected
Next Year.

The report comes from Lewiston,
Mont, that owing to the attitude of the
great majority OF the woolgrowers Of
the Judith basin, buyers representing
the big eastern houses who were ex-
pectod there this month will not come
this fall. N
The grove. have for the most part
reached the conclusion that wool will
be higher next season than II was this
summer and are not willing to contract
except at an advance over this seasons
figures. The very large growers, while
few In number, take the opposite view.
Fergus county wool averages higher
In grade than that produced In any
other part of Montana, and it brought
the highest average price paid this sea-
son. The large growers say that a still
further advance would bring the price
up to n, figure where Australian woods
Of the same grade would come In COM
petition with the Montana product and
that the growers cannot reasonably
expect the price To pass the importing
point.
However, the situation In the state
at large, and especially in this section,
is such that every eastern house has
recalled its buyers, and until there Is
a change there will be no further con-
tracing for next seasons clip. The
best Informed men In the business say
that the amount in this state already
under contract Ia under 100000
pounds.
