plays great game aid is in good
shape for a gruelling contest right
now. Frank Wrightk and Leo WINS
will be the forwards, with Roy Daily
and Floyd Aldrioh as guards.
Evidently great interest is taken in
Billings in the coming game. The
Billigs Journal published a long
poem, in which the prediction is made
in rhyme that the contest will be "the
greatest ever" yet the poet modestly
inclines to the belief that the Billings
bunch will find forms worthy of their
steel here.
There is siure to be an immense
turnout for this game, yet however
big the attendance, it will hardly
more than pay the expenses of bring
ing the visitors here.

GREAT FALLS SCHOOLS
VIII Not Close, Fever Epidemic Is
Subsiding.

Great Falls, Feb 6-Aftcr some
discussion last evening, the school
board decided that, after this year,
pupils may be advanced in the pri
mary grades and the High school
twice year This action is in part
Tor the purpose Of relieving the con
aesfed condition Of some of the
rooms in the upper grades.
Scarlet fever was discussed al
some length and the board decided
that there was no present necessity
Tor closing the schools. There are
only u children said to be out of
school on account Of this disease AT
present, and this is not an extraor-
binary large number for this time of
the year. 1t is stated that most of
the cases in the city now are those
OF adults and children below the
school age.

Crowd and Speaks of the Future.
Tampa, Fla, Feb 4.-Speakinp to
an immense crowd at the race track
today, William J. Bryan said he
brought to the Democrats of the
south message of good cheer and
declared there is a steadily increasin,
sentiment that makes for the growth
of the democratic party in the Unit
ed States.
He predicted the masses would de-
mand the rights of the aristocratic
class.
Mr.. Bryan said the president had
taken to himself all the authority OF
a czar in the manipulation of his high
office. He declared that prospects
were brighter than ever for demo-
cratic victory in 1912.
Mr. Bryan was the guest tonight at
banquet given in his honor by til,
State Mid-Winter Fair association
and spoke on "The Future OF the
Democracy"
Mr.. Bryan reviewed the recent de-
cision, sentencing Samuel Gompers
John Mitchell and Frank Morrison to
jail on contempt charges and declaree
these leaders of organized labor arc
entitled to the sympathy of the en-
tire people.

Big CLOCK IS NOW
Recording time
1T APPEARS TO BE A FIRST
CLASS TIMEPIECE IN ALL
RESPECTS.

The big clock in the tower of the
new court house is now striking the
hours and Lewistown now has an
accurate guide as to the time of day
or night. The mechanism was adj
justed Friday, and at O'Clock that
afternoon the clock tolled off the
hours for the first time. The bis
timepiece appears to be all right in
every way.
The face Of the clock is some six
feet in diameter, but still the hands
canot be seen quite as far as was cX-
pected. The face of the clock will be
illuminated at night and altogether
the clock is going to be quite a con
venlence to the town
Moving Furniture.
Saturday the work of installing the
new steel furniture in the various of
fces at the court house was begun
and meantime the finishing touches
are being put on the interior, so that
the building should be ready for oc-
cuDacy at the time fixed, March /.
The floors need considerable attcn-
ton yet, but it is not supposed this
work will delay matters any

BRANCH Line TO
LEWISTOWN NEXT
HILL ROAD GETTING READY
TO BUILD TO COUNTY
SEAT OF FERGUS.

Talk of the Billings & Northern
branch from Philbrook, or near there,
to Lewistown, has been received at
Great Falls, and the Tribune is author
lty TOR the statement that it is the
company's intention to build the
branch during the coming spring and
summer. The machinery and tools of
all sorts needed on this piece of con
struction are all stored at Arlington
and the belief among those familiar
with the subject is that Guthrie &
Co. will be given the contract for the
work. This job is really small one,
comparatively speaking, and can be
pushed through to completion in a
short time, the surveys having been
made, and much of the material be
ing already on hand. 1t is expected
that early in the spring an official
announcement will be given out re.
garding the matter.

The "cold snaj'' of the past three
days is evidently over The sun came
out this morning, and the ther-
mometer dropped rapidly, so that the
predicted shifting OF the storm center
has evidently materialized. In this
section the mercury dropped to about
10 degrees below zero. A light fall
OF snow all over the basin country
brought pleasure to the farmers ard

moisture is comparatively small, it

School Hygiene.

is close association with tuberculosis iel-
low pupils or possibly the teacher
Among the fruitful sources of danger Is
the common drinking cup, which must
be abolished for the individual folding
cup or the hygienc drinking fountain
where no cup is needed. Religious or
ganjzatous have found that the microhe
has no respect for the holy communion
cup, so theyrow use the individual cups.
Why not take similar steps to protect
the children who d-fuk many times each
day from the cup used alike by the heal
thy and the diseased?
The following rules for the prevention
OF tuberculosis should be posted in every
school room (D Do not spit on slate,
floor, sidewalk or playground; (2) do
not spit except in spittoon, piece OF
cloth or handkerchief. On returning
from school the cloth may be burned or
the handkerchief put in water until such
time as it can be washed. (3) Do not
put pencils, your fingers, pins, or ii fact
anything else, in your mouth, except
food or drink ; q protect the mouth and
nose while coughing or sneezlng; (5)
peel or wash fruit before eating 1t; (O
do not kiss any one on the mouth or al
low them to do so to you; (7) learn TO
love fresh air, breathe deeply and prac-
tice it often.
In France the covers of the books are
utilized to teach the children how to pre-
vent tuberculosis. Teachers should be
impressed with the fact thattuber culosis
has killed many times more people than
have al the wars since the world began.
II the teacher is Convinced cf the danger
he or she Will in turn convince the pupil
and great step will have been taken IN
the right direction. Unfortunately Il e
medical profession has taken little
est in this question unit recently. Now
nearly all the large cities haue medical
inspectors for the schools. To the cred
it OF the superintendents and teachers
be it said that the medical inspector has
received their hearty appreciation and
support. We have stock inspectors, why
not inspectors for boys and gitls? Is not
tuberculosis among the children as i'm
portant as scab among the sheep? Ii it
pays to spend state money to eradicate
diseases of animals would it not be
good investment to prevent human dis
eases? Typhoid fever, tuberculosis and
many other diseases are preventable,
yet this state furnishes several hundred
victims annually, causing great loss OF
life and property.
Tne general public should come to re-
alize that public health service is second
to none in importance to the community
ani the state. Physicians have ever
been foremost in the work Of preventing
disease. The next few years will see
rapid strides made in the direction of
preventive medicine. Already many OF
ganizations have bee0 formed with that
end in view and steps have been taken
looking to the formation OF national
bures Of heblth. When that is done all
the people in the nation will be united
under one flag, to 90 forth to fight and
vanqush the invisible common foe, the
mcrobe.
