TO ENLARGE
SCHOOL DISTRICT
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT WILL
HEAR PROTESTS ON
JUNE 5.

County Superintendent of Schools
Trumper has issued notice that on
June 5, at her office in Kalispell she
will hear protests against enlarging
the Whitefish school district, No.44.
The Whitefish school district only
extends to the city limits on the
east and does not take in the Nc
Keen addition or the Hutchinson
mill district. These belong to the
Valentine school district but should,
on account of their close proximity
to Whitefish, belong here, as they
cas Aot attend the Valentine school
This matter has been agitated for
some time by interested par
ties, and they have at last gotten
the matter before the county super
intendent.
1t is intended to run the new
boundary lines of the district three
miles farther east, end from thence
northerly along certain lines to the
Canadian line; thence east along
the international boundary to a
point just north of the western boun
Diary of the present district, which
! is near Lupfer, and thence south
A great deal of this land will be
forest reserve, from which no taxes
will be derived, but by taking in all
this territory the valuation of the
district is given a marked increase
and as soon as the conditions are
ripe we can we'll afford a new bricl
school house.

RECORDS
ARE BROKEN

There will be no lack of moisture
in the dry-farming districts of Mon
tana this year. That section has
been visited with the greatest raia-
fall of which there is any record
for the month of May
The rainfall for the first % days
OF May, shows a new record for that
period in May as compared with all
former records available and more
than a quarter Of an inch greater
than any previously recorded rain
fall for the entire month. The to-
tai for the 25 days, according to Vol
untary Weather Observer S. H. Bau-
man, of Great Falls, was 255 inches
The highest previous record was
made in 1906 when with the heavy
storms of that year the record went
2,2O inches, nearly a quarter of an
inch higher than any other record
since there has been a record of
rainfall kept for Great Falls.

NESSPAYS COST
DOES NOT SHOW UP TO PROSE-
CUTE DEFENDANT IN
SHOOTING AFFRAY.

Frank Gay, an Italian section
foreman, though one would not
think it from his name, and Frank
Williams, clerk on the supply car,
became engaged in wordy con-
flict in the yards here last Friday,
over the efforts of the Italian try
ing to carry off couple of pals.
Williams caught him in the act and
ordered him to bring them back
which he did rather reluctantly,
swearing vengeance. Williams was
not easily bluffed, and drew his re-
volver, intending to scare his as
sailant, but he didn't scare worth a
cent, so he takes a random shot
at him after the Italian told him to
go ahead and shoot, the shot being
too wide of the mark to do any
harm The Italian then came up
town and swore out warrant for
Williams arrest. The trial was to
have come off Saturday morning but
Gay did not show up to prosecute
the case, 50 Williams was released
and the costs of the case was taxed
up against Gay for failing to appear
and prosecute.
1t is said by witnesses that Will
liams was in no way to blame, and
that if the case had come to trial
evidence would have developed
which would have caused the ar
rest CT Gay himself.

CIVIC CLUB
STILL WORKING
ARE NOW GETTING READY TO
PROCURE A CEMETERY
SITE,

The WCman's Civic Club have at
last succeeded in raising the neces-
sary $3.50 to secure the $3.50 offered
by the Townsite company, and the
$3.50 offered by the city council for
the Whitefish Park fund, and are
now ready to proceed with the
work of having the site cleared,
broken and sowed. 1t will be only
a short time till the people of
Whitefish will realize again that the
Woman's Civic club are working for
worthy object and that they mean
businesswhen they take up any prop
osition.
The people of Whitefish already
have the use of the ambulance and
hearse; they will soon have the use
of the park, and later on, will boast
of cemetery and mems readin
room, from the efforts of this wide
awake organization.
The ladies are using their best
efforts to improve our city, and tho
the club has only fairly started since
the reorganization they have met
with SO much encouragement that
they are willing to exert themselves
mentally, physically and financially
to gain every point possible in the
upbuilding of the city.
The club wishes to express their
appreciation to the gentlemen, la
dies and young girls who SO kindly
assisted in the miscellaneous pro-
gram given at Skyles' hall on May
"a, by which they succeeded in COM
pleting the park fund.
They also wish to express their
thanks to the many merchants who
SO generously donated to the fund
which Mr.. Skyles started by offering
the hall gratis and to give $5, pro-
viding all other merchants would
give $500.
The president at once got busy
with her subscription list, and wa!
not only met with smiles, but almos
everyone gave freely. Those wht
are more in favor of a cemetery ex
pressed themselves as eager tt
help in that direction, and now tha,
the club has surplus of $35,whicf
has been set aside for nest egs
for the cemetery fund, the cemetery
. boosters will have a chance to make
good
In view of the splendid object Of
the club, every public-spiriteG
woman in Whitefish should be will
ing to give whatever assistance the.
can, and the members of the clul
will welcome any and all such WON
en- to their membership, and no on
need wait for special invitation
They want the moral, broad-minde'
women, and have waiting space o.
their roll for many of them.

MILWAUKEE, PUTS ON
FAST THROUGH TRAINS

Through transcontinental express
service on the new Pacific eXten-
sion CT the Chicago, Milwaukee 4
st. Paul was inaugurated Sunday
evening. when the new all-steel
trains, the Columbian and the Olym-
plan, left Chicago and Seattle. The
Oylmpian left Chicago on its first
westward trip at 1915 Sunday nigh
and at the same time the Columbian
left Seattle for Chicago. The new
route will result in considerable
saving of time between Chicago and
the Pacific northwest.
The Overland Limited of the I'm
ion Pacific-Southern Pacific also
went on new schedule Sunday,
which will cut nearly half a business
day from the time between Chicago
and San Francisco. The train will
hereafter make the trip from the
Windy city to the Golden Gate in
6S hours, instead of 2k hours, as
before.

HAVE YOU
TRIED THEM YET
THE DELICIOUS MUSHROOM HAS
DISH.

The recent damp weather has
caused what is called here the
mountain or sponge mushrooms to
grow in great profusion on the
burned-over land just west of town
During the past week mushrooms
have been all the fad, and men,
women and children, armed with
large tin cans and buckets, have
been seen hiking off to the hillsides
early in the morning to pick the
nice tender ones that grew up in the
night.
There are many here who have
never seen this specie of mushroom
before, and would be afraid to eat
them, thinking they might be toad
stools, but they are so different
that there is but little danger of
making a mistake. When properly
cooked they certainly make a de-
licious dish, and after the skeptic
is assured that they are really good
to eat, he is out climbing the noun
tains the next morning, too, to get
another mess of them
During the past week this deli
cacy has been brought in by the
bushels, and nearly everyone has
mushrooms for dinner. With some
they are SO popular that they eat
them three times day, and make a
meal out of them at that. Seeing
they are so plentiful the thrifty
housewives are trying to devise some
method of preserving them so as to
enjoy this delicious dish after the
season is over.
The Encyclopedia Britannica treats
extensively on mushrooms, and from
the description of the species that
would apply to those that grow here
it would be known as the mOrel. 1t
says, "This delicious edible fun
gus grows after warm rains in the
spring or early summer in woody
places and in orchard. and gardens
often in places where the ground
has been burned over. Like the
champignon, the morel can be easily
dried and kept suspended on strings
in necklace fashion for winter use
1t is generally three or four inches
high. with hollow stem and hol-
low, irregular globose, honey
cOmbed head
If these mushrooms will dry prop
erly it should solve the housewives
problem, and they. can initiate theil
grandmothers of years ago, anC
hang them on string in the attic
for winter use.
Mushrooms are considered a swell
dish in the high-toned cafes in the
big cities, and there has been some
talk by several here about making
arrangements with DavenpOrt's IL
Spokane to send them daily ship

WANTS TO BUILD
A PLOW FACTORY
But the Promoter Wants
Ell Paso to Buy
100000 in Stock

Ell Paso is in line for another large
factory.
Secretary Kline, of the chamber Of
commerce, received a letter Thursday
afternoon from Frank 3. Wilson, who
is the hacker of the new concern, the
Thompson Breeze company, the fac
tory which has put out the only sue
cessful autO-plOw.
Wilson says: I have a factory that
will employ 300 men. 1t will take
$4,000 in stock and site to put 1T in
your city. ] am going to locate in your
territory some place. You have the
first opportunity. This factory is the
ThCmps Breeze company, of Wapa-
koneta, o., manufacturers of the only
proved successful autO-plOw that is
made
Relative to the matter, Mr.. Kline
said: The proposition is undoubtedly
a good one, and would be a big boost
for FL Paso. FL Paso has sufficient
railroad facilities to warrant their
shipping TO all points in Mexico, Ne
braska and Kansas. where the new
pillow would likely find market. As to
the 100000 in stock, I do not see how
we can raise it now, but we have plen-
ty of good sites. 1 know nothing of
the organization, and can not say any
thing definite"
The matter viii be brought up be-
fore the directors meeting at the
chamber of commerce Friday after
noon, and viii probably be turned over
to the manufacturing committee.

Fraternity; Its Importance
10 Civilization and Humanity
Memorial Address Delivered Before Las Cruces Blks
By THOMAS ". NEALoN.

- UTILIZATION rests upon frater-
nifty. All men are brothers, and
not until man forgets this fact
does discord enter. The first murder
that stained a human soul was COM
mitted by one who had forgotten the
fraternal relation. Every war that
ever brought misery in its wake came
when man forgot his duty to his broth
er Every movement that lifted man
kind came from the noble impulse Of
man to help his brother
We are living in an age of fraternity
Men are banding themselves every
where in organizations bearing the
names of brotherhood, and it is no
empty sounding title. When men en-
ter halls together in confidence and
honor, speaking the feelings of the
heart in fun, consciousness that they
VIII be held sacred, misunderstanding
vanish, and the nobility that is buried
beneath the cares Of every day life,
appears and we see our fellow beings
as they are fashiond by their Creator.
The Age Of Peace.
And if it is an age of fraternity it is
no less an age OF peace All over the
world men and organizations are work
ing for peace. The spirit Of peace and
concord is spreading from organization
