POWER CITY ACTIVE
EVEN WITHOUT SMELTER

Homer Mcdonald, a graduate of the
University of Montana, and who for
number of years, has been employed
in the Great Falls smelter left yes
terday morning for Chicago after
having spent a couple OF days in Mis-
soula visiting his parents and his
many friends in this city. After leav-
ing school Mr. Mcdonald accepted a
position in the chemical laboratory
at the smelter. Later he was promot-
ed to be general foreman of the smelt-
ers and was serving in that capacity
when the plant was closed recently.
Mr., Mcdonald has been called to Chi
cago by his company to consider an
offer of a position either at Chicago
or New York.
Work in City.
"rhe closing of the smelters means
considerable to Great Falls SAID
Mr. Mcdonald. There were between
500 and 700 men employed when the
shutdown order came, and most or
There is a lot of work going On there
at present, a number of big bulldihss
being constructed and much general
improvement work. The city plans to
start some additional projects right
away. so large proportion of the
smeltermen will find employment for
while.
Plant Closed Tight.
"Some are living in hopes that work
at the smelter will soon be resumed.
AS to this I am unable to give any in
formation know the plant is closed
tight now. Most of the engineers and
department heads have been let out.
Great Falls Lively.
''But Great Falls is in good shape.
The development of the surrounding
agricultural country and the recent
railroad building has given it more
permanent foundation than ever be-
fore. Outside business people are be-
ginning to get interested over there.
Several big wholesale firms have es-
tablished branch offices there recently.
affairs have full confidence in the flu
ture of the city, smelter or no
smelter."
Cascade and Consolidation.
In discussing the matter of the pro-
posed consolidation of the states edu-
catiopal institutions, Mr.. Mcdonald
said that undoubtedly Cascade county
is in favor of consolidation, "When
this question first came up" said he,
"it was intimated that Great Falls ia
vored consolidation because it hoped
to get the combined institution. Now
that this question is to be decided by
an outside commission Of state univer-
sity presidents. the choice resting he-
tween Missoula and Bozeman. the
folks of Cascade will favor the meas
ure vigorously, Just to show, If for no
other reason, that they have no selfish
interests, there being no possible
chance for Great Falls to be selected
as the site of the consolidated school
under the present plan."

Mr.. MeDnnald said that the people

This is also what Homer Mcdonald
said when he came over from Great
Falls, where he has just
HOMER finished lclosing down
HOME the big smelter. He
got the old furnaces all
cooled down without cracking and
then ran over to see his folks and
friends. "Missoua certainly looks
good to me-" he said. "Its always
home. no matter how long one is away
But you are changing things here, too.
This street paving is what will do
You more good than anything else.
From her first block of pavement Mis-
sorla commenced to be city. But
say, there are some folks who have no
pride in these improvements. l had
not been in town an hour before

side / saw a man drive over q perfect

team and a heavily loaded wagon.
Further down the street I saw a man
striding across the new lawn of the
street parking. Presently couple of
women came along and tramped
across it in another place Now over

Presbyterian Church.

Favored as Leon now S with ideal
weather for church-going, these Sab
baths ought to be red letter days for
our churches. While no doubt the
services of our different churches are
as we'll attended as at any time of the
year, and there seems to be the usual
church-going members present, yet
there ought to be many more enlist
ing. 1t is exceedingly doubtful
whether mountaineering people can
justify themselves with excuses OF
pleasure, business and Indifference.
Think it over. All our churches are
open to you and prayerfully solicit
your presence and help.

THE CHURCHES.
Methodist Church Notes,

The w. F. M. S. met with Mrs.
Frank Hansell yesterday afternoon
for their November meeting. This
society is growing, and last year
made the best record in their history.
On Wednesday evening, Oct. %,
the Epworth League and their friends
enjoyed a Halloween party in the
basement of the church. Jack-o' Lam
terms, corn fodder and autumn leaves
were used in the decorations, giving
a pleasing rustic effect to the room.
There was fish-pond, fortune
tellers booth, an apple cider stand,
stunt march through the darkened
rooms, then strange creepy things
were passed about as the guests were
seated around long table, and fin
ally the ghost march to the homes of
some of the members where pumpkin
pie, apples and popcorn balls were
served in real Halloween style. The
social department chairman and her
helpers are to be congratulated for
making such a happy evening pos
sible.
Mr.. T. S. Rhoades had good crowds
to hear him at both services last
Sunday evening. The Young People,
service was conducted as a round
table. Many helpful suggestions
were received, and best of all an in
spiration to attempt greater things.
Bro. Rhoades told us the Charlton
district leads the whole Des Moines
conference in the number of Epworth
and Junior Leaguers, there being
2O31 of the former and over 900 OF
the latter. The goal for this year
is an advance of 500 members in the
, senior chapters.
Choir rehearsal cannot be held at
the regular hour this evening because
of the lecture course number which
comes tonight.
The regular services next Sabbath
to which you will receive cordial
welcome.

The Leon High School added an
other game to its long string OF vic
tories last Saturday afternoon by de-
feating the Humeston team by a
score of 81 to 8 in scrappy contest.
The visitors took an early lead
when they kicked goal from the field
soon after play was commenced. This
was all the scoring Humeston was
able to do. The HumestOn team made
good showing in the first quarter
when on several occasions they made
gains around Icons right end. But
this sort of play was soon checked
by Kemp, who tackled Humeston's
backs for several yard losses. After
the first quarter Humeston never
neared Icons goal Humeston tried
several forward passes but only one
proved successful on which they gain
ed Is yards Leon made two success
full passes out of three attempts.
Capt. Keshlear and w. Scott, execut-
ed one of the passes which was good
for rs yards. The game was appar-
emily delayed on several plays, when
the ball was in Humeston's hands and
it was necessary for quarterback
Ripper to arrange his men SO the
play he wished to make could be exc
cuted. Bert Kemp was the real hero
of the game, it being through his
bucking that Humeston lost the ball
on downs on several instances. Time
after time he tackled men for several
yard losses. Bob Scott's line plung-
ing was not as effective as it was in
former games owing to the fact that
the Humeston line was one OF the
strongest that the Leon team has
played against. Capt. Keshlear's end
runs were good and it was through
his open field work that he was able
to make large gains The Leon line
did not play as good as was expected.
During the third quarter Asbury was
thrown to the ground and injured.
His injury will keep him out Of the
game the rest of the season. The
game was somewhat marred by the
rough tactics used by the visiting
players.
Tho linoun was az follows.

SYNOPSIS.

Cowboys of the Flying Heart ranch are
neartbroken over the loss OF their much
priced monograph by the defeat of their
champion in a foot-race with the cook OF
the Centipede ranch. A house party is
on at the Flying Heart. ]. Wallingford
Speed, cheer leader at Yale. and Culver
Covington, intercollegiate champion run
ner, are expected. Helen Blake, Speeds
sweetheart, becomes interested in the loss
of the photograph. She suggests to Jean
Chaplin, sister of the owner Of the ranch,
that she induce Covington, her lover, TO
win pack the photograph. Helen declares
that If Covington won't run, Speed Will.
The Cowboys are hilarious over the pros
pect. Speed and his valet, Larry Glass,
trainer at Yale, arrive. Helen Blake asks
Speed, who has posed to her as an ath-
lete, to race against the Centipede man.
The cowboys join in the appeal to Wally,
and fearing hat Helen will nnd him out,
he consents. He insists, however, that he
shall be entered as an unknown, figuring
that Covington will arrive in time to take
his place. Fresno, glee club singer from
Helen, tries to discredlt. Speed with the
ladies and the cowboys. Speed n Glass
put in the time they are supposed TO be
training playing cards in a secluded spot.
The cowboys explain to Speed how much
the race means to them. Speed assures
them he will do his best. The cowboys
tell Glass Il Is up to him to see that Speed
wins the race. Willie, the gunman, de-
clares the trainer will go back east pack
eG in ice, II Speed falls.
