Do not forget when you are Sc
lecting sample sheaves of grain and
grasses for the Flathead County

These are only a few samples of
prizes put up for agricultural exhib-
Its that the farmers of Flathead
Valley have an excellent chance Of
pulling down. Flathead products
wherever exhibited at big land
shows have met with greatest sue
cess and there is no reason why
We should not do as well at Min
neapolis and Lethbridge.
The Kalispel Chamber of Com
merce has employed Mr.. F. B. Al
len, professional decorator who
has worked for the Great Northern
in that capacity on their exhibit
cars. and he will have charge of
the Flathead booths at the big ex-
positions.

viting the earnest cooperation Of
the farmers in this exhibition Of
Flathead products which Is q mutual
proposition in which every citizen
of the Flathead county is concerned.

DARR0W IS FREE

Los Angeles, Aug. 17.--Clarence
s. Darrow, the noted Chicago law
yer, was fond not guilty today on
the charge Of having bribed a pros
pective juror in the Mcnamara case.
Mr.. Darrow was showered with
kilograms from all parts Of the
country which began pouring in
within an hour after the verdict
had been given to the world. They
came from labor organizations,
leaders Of organized labor, intimate
friends and many whom he does not
know. Most of them came from Chi
cago. his home, and the scene of
most of his professional activities
for quarter of a century. The
court room scene which followed
the reading of the verdict, just "a
minutes after the Jury had retired
this morning, was one that had no
parallel in the court annals of this
city. Jurors whose phlegmatic coun-
tenances had given no hint of their
feelings throughout the three months
and more which elapsed since the
trial began, embraced the man they
had tried. and with tears running
down their cheeks declared that
it was the happiest day of their
lives.

PROFESSOR HAYDEN RETURNS

Professor Harry Hayden returned
last Saturday night from the Yak
country, where he has been in the
forest service, far removed from
the busy mart of man and the mad
dening crowd Of candidates for pres
ident. He states that he slept in
his blankets at nights with the can
opy of heaven for a roof, and lived
as close to nature as it is possible.
In fact it was necessary often to
live that way.
He says. that he has developed
so much muscle during his vacation
that he will be able to maintain the
strictest kind of discipline among
the students when school commen-
ces.

There is no excuse for an able
bodied man being out of employ
ment in and around Whitefish at
this time. With business good on
the railroad all departments find it
difficult to keep enough men to car
ry on the work desired. The mills
also are unable to keep a full force
OF men, as many of the floating
laborers are finding no difficulty in
getting good wages in the harvest
fields reaping the abundant crops.

AS will be noted in another column,
the Deaconess Association Of the NJ.
e. church has offered to take over the
Brookings hospital and the offer has
met with a ready acceptance from the
Hospital Association. The plan is to
buy the property outright and CON
duct it in connection with some sixty
other institutions of the Deaconess
Association. The Register believes
that the plan is a good n and a
happy way out Of a difficult problem.
The hospital has been a source of ex-
pense, and no little worry, to the peo-
pie of ~Brookings for some time past
and the opportunity of placing it on a
permanent and self-sustaining basis
should be welcomed. Brookings can
not afford to be without a hospital,
which Is something that appeals to
our benevolent instincts and civic
pride, and the Register has no doubt
but that the people Of the city will be
generous in their aid of the movement.

No larger return can be secured
from any form of investment these
days than that secured from money
invested in an education. The young
man or young woman with the edu.
cation has the advantage now days.
AS the time approaches for the open,
ing of u schools this thought should
be more firmly impressed upon the
minds of our young people who are
In doubt as to their future course.
Boys and girls who have graduated
from rural schools should lay their
plans for entering high schools for a
full course. Bookings has excep-
tional advantages in its high school
this year and we trust hat it will be
crowded to its capacity.

condemn the niggardlyness of the last
