With regard to the sewer to be put
IN by the Milwaukee to its depot, R.
yon Tobel suggested that If the rail-
way built and paid for the sewer, a
record Of the cost should be kept and
thereafter property owners benefited
who desired to connect with the sew
er should be assessed their pro rata
Q fthe cost. Two or three other sew
ers that are contemplated under the
same plan would naturally come under
the same rule, and in the case of the
Milwaukee it was decided that the
sewer should be constructed in the
usual way through the Improvement
district plan.
Requests for sidewalks in the Que
lette and Park additions were referred.

B. R. Cole asked that the order re-
quiring him to put in a board walk in
front of his place ON Bebb street be
suspended for the reason that he in
tended to put in cement walk as
early as possible in the spring.
G. R. Edmonds and G. w. Lang pro-

thirty days to put in the walk.
Requests for walks in Ouelette and

THEY MET BY CHANCE
THE USUAL WAY AND
THE WEDDING OCCURRED IN LEW.
lSTOWN THURSDAY-ROM
OF LANDsEEkERs.

Many romantic stories are told of
western methods of courtship and
marriage. but now and then young
people from the east catch the west
ern method OF doing things and the
inevitable romance ensues. A few
days ago a young man of good family,
living at Locksport, ILL.,, determined to
ascertain IL the wonderful stories he
had heard OF the far-famed Judith
basin were half way true, and so he
purchased ticket for Lewistown.
About the same time a young woman
living in a quiet little town in south
ern Minnesota felt somehow the call
OF the west, and determined to seek q
claim in the land of promise and op-
portunity. So she also purchased a
ticket to Lewistown.
Meet by Chance.
AS the train moves westward she
finds an agreeable fellow passenger in
the young man from Illinois. Together
they pore over descriptions of the
splendors and wealth of Montana.
They are interested in the same
things; they marvel at the country
through which they are passing; they
are glad that Montana is SO large a
state that young people can become
well acquainted while passing through
It. As they near LewIstOwn and see
the immense grain fields and thriving
little towns. backed by snow-capped
mountains, Illinois and Minnesota are
drawn closer and closer together. and
two brown heads touch and hand
clasps hand as they plan for adjoin-
ing claims in some secluded little val
ley. They arrive at Lewistown, they
like the town, they like the people,
they like the western way of doing
things in hurry. They find adjoining
lands. They file their claims. They
secure a license from genial clerk.
They find old friends in the Methodist
minister and his wife. They plan the
day, they set the hour. Another old
friend Is found In Otto Scheidt, the
right size. A dressmaker Is found
who can create a wedding dress in q
day and night. A wedding cake mys-
teriously appears and the wedding
feast prepared. A handsome taxicab
deposits them at the parsonage door.

Ubanksgibing proclamation

From the time of it's first OBJ
servance by the Plymouth colony in
1921, Thanksgiving day has become
more and more an event in the life
of the American people, until today
it is recognized throughout the land
as a day specifically given over to
acknowledgment by prayer and
praise of the blessings conferred
upon the people by Almighty God.
In Montana our people approach
this annual observance with a full
realization of the benefits that have
come to them in most generous
measure. In every material sense
they have been prosperous. On
the farms, in the industries and in
all OF the avenues of commerce
there have been evidences of the
favor and bounty Of an all-wise
Providence.
In all of those things that make
for civic righteousness and the
lasting good Of a people and state,
Montana has gone forward. The
influence of her churches and her
schools has widened, and there has
been q notable increase in the or
ganizations tending to raise the
standard OF citizenship and make
of ours better state in which to
live.
Neither calamity nor pestilence
has visited us, and our people are
contented and at peace with all the
world.
Therefore. I. s. v. Stewart, gov
ernor Of the state of Montana, do
hereby join the president of the
United States in designating Thurs
day, the twenty-seventh day of No
vember. next, as Thanksgiving day.
And I recommend that on that
day our people refrain from their
labors and In their houses Of wor-
ship and in their homes give
earnest observance to the occasion,
Offering thanks to Almighty God for
His divine favor and praying the
guidance Of His omnipotent hand
through the years that are to follow
with which guidance they may
well face the future In all hope and
confidence.
In witness whereof. l have here
unto set my hand and caused the
great seal Of the state to be af-
fixed.
Done at the city of Helena, the
capitol, this. the twenty-fourth day
of October, In the year Of our Lord
one thousand nine hundred thirteen,
and Of the independence Of the
United States of America the one
hundred thirty eighth.

Governor.

WOMAN'S CLUB Will
PRODUCE 'P|NAF0RE"
EVER POPULAR COMIC OPERA TO
BE GIVEN DECEMBER
t2 AND 13.

Arrangements have been made by
the Woman's club to produce the
comic opera, "Pinafore," on Friday
and Saturday nights, Dec. IL and 13.
Mr.. Martin e. Robinson, who gave
Queen Esther" here last week, will
have the direction of this opera also,
and many Of the singers who took
part in Queen Esther will assist in
producing Pinafore.
Some forty years ago the people of
England were delighted by the pro
ductfon of light operas by the eminent
who, assisted by w. S. Gilbert. wrote
what have since proven to be the most
popular and lasting light operas ever
produced. There is nothing of the
coarseness and horse-play that char
acterizes many Of the musical come
dies of the later period, but the humor
and satire of all the Gilbert and Sulli-
van operas is of a clean and pleasing
nature. "Pinafore" was one of the
first of the operas by these composers
and Is travesty on conditions exist
ing In England at the time, when posi-
tiOns of trust and honor were either
inherited or to be bought, and were
often in the hands of men totally un-
fit to occupy such Offices. It was large
ly due to the satire and sarcasm of
these operas that conditions were
changed and the navy and other
branches of the service were placed
upon a basis of merit rather than
heredity.
"Pinafore" was first produced in this
country in New York about 1875 by
the original English company. directed
by Sir Arthur Sullivan and accom-
panied by his entire company Of about
forty musicians. The opera at once
became so popular that within short
time it was being produced by many
professional companies throughout the
United States. and by local choirs and
musical societies in almost every large
city. For many years it was used as
the leading attraction of the famous
"Bostonians" and it was in this opera
that such singers as Barnaby, McDon-
aid. rockingham, Cowles, Emma Alb
bott and Jessie Bartlett Davis made
their greatest regulations.
The popularity of the opera has new
er decreased and constant revivals Of
it have been brought about, the last
within the past two years. when it ran
in New York, Boston and Chicago for
many weeks and was sung by our best
light opera stars. Last season the
same company made tour Of the
leading cities of the west and every
where were greeted by crowded
houses at prices ranging from one to
i've dollars for seats.
In the production here next month,
while all the solo parts will be taken
by local singers, except the part Of
"Buttercup.' which will be taken by
Dennie Burke Dale. niece Of director
Robinson. they will be supported by
an excellent chorus. Special scenery
and nautical costumes are used and
every attention paid to detail by the
director to make this the best produc-
tion that can be given by local talent.
Az the opera is being given by the
Woman's club. It IL confidently ex-
pected that . full house win greet thel
performers both nights. Remember
the date, Dec. IL and Is.

THANKSGIVING HYMN.

Lord, while we linger here a space,
While yet the golden days are
M ours
Strung on the thread of Thy dear
grace,
That spans world of fruit and
flowers,
While yet each seasons gracious
store
Falls from Thy ever kindly hand,
May we not fail to Thee adore
For life and home and happy
land.
The light on shore and laughing
wave,
The dew ON apple bloom and
wheat,
The streams that pasture margins
lave,
The mart, the field. the oceans
fleet,
The fleecy flock, the branded herd,
The bursting crib and dripping
hive
Are only ours through selfish word:
From Thee all blessings we de-
rive.
sAnd 50, o Lord, In JOY and tears
Lift us from vain and careless
arts,
To glorify Thy granted years
With humble, peaceful, thankful
hearts
