Nov. 18th Is Tag
Day for Charity
Appeal to Be Made to All
Generous Citizens
Here

Saturday. Nov. IA, has been
proclaimed by the Associated
Charities as Tag Day. On this
day NUMBER of the maids and
matrons of the city will be out
on the hustings to hang tags on
all who cross their path and if
we do not cross their path
chances are they will come and
brave us in onr sundry and sew
eral dens. And while the good
ladies are attaching small
placards to our persons it will
be our cue to 60 down in our
financial pockets and dig up a
suitable amount of emergent v
currency for a good cause.
While the prospective solicitors
say they will set no arbitrary
amount necessary as exchange
for tags, they will not be taken
back or offended by a keen
rivalry among the men IN
the generosity of their donations.
That the cause is good and
worthy one no one will deny.
The receipts will be wisely ex-
pended for necessary food and
clothing for the needy in the |
town and community and will
therefore be kept in circulation
in our own community. The
Pioneer Press does not deem it
necessary to elaborate on this
subject. We believe that onr
generous and thoughtful citi-
zens will respond to this solici-
tation on behalf Of the less for
tunate in our midst as generous
ly as their means will permit.
By all means let us encourage
and cooperate with the Charity
workers in this movement on
Saturday, Nov. 18th,

ing on June 1. of next year in
anticipation of the tremendous
trade promised on account of
the travel to the Panama-Pacific
exposition.
We smashed all records last
year in park attendance" Mr..
McGaughey claims. But the
number that will pass through
the park next year, both on the
way to and from the exposition.
will surprise even ourselves.
The establishment of the fast
steamer service between the
mouth of the Columbia river
and California will mean that
the mai ioritv of the visitors to
the exposition win either 20 or
come through Montana and
they will certainly not neglect
an opportunity of visiting the
wonders of Glacier National
Park.
During my last trip east I
found that the nameof Montana

were said about our state by

sion at the present time, there is
no use ii binding ourselves to
the fact is only temporary. No
depression can exist for any
length of time in face Of
the splendid harveSts with
which the commonwealth has
been blessed this year. A little

salt which will make far greater

Railroaders Fine Hosts

ANdilI IOdOCIS . EIuG 41OSGS
The largest crowd that
has ever assembled at the
local dancing hall for many
a moon 'pegged the clock"
to apply the roundhouse
vernacular, for the dance of the
railroad boys, last Friday even
ing. They had it figured out
that this would be no ordinary
plebeian dance and their fig
ures were correct.
Entering the hall was like
finding an open sesame in some
enchanted bower of faTyland.
The walls and ceiling were inter-
laced with multi-colored stream
ers and tiny lanterns substitut-
ed the regular lighting system,
being placed at many vantage
places about the hal. The fea-
lures, however, that attracted
the greatest attention and most
complimentary comment were
the Great Northern advertising
sign, illumined with a light in
the background and the minia-
ture roundhouse, a very good
replica of Jim Hills life-sized
smoke house here. Drawings
of the different types of engines
were well executed, Jack
hane's goat" being a striking
resemblance to the original,
Foreman Gus Anderson.
wrench in hand and in a great
hurry, was pleasantly carica-
tured in the center of the scene.
A punch bowl containing lem
onade with just the fainteSt
kick" in it was another innova-
ton. This brand of lemonade
has been adopted as the official
roundhouse drink, so the com
mittee assured us.
Active reception and intro
aass committees kept things
a-moving and when the guests
entered the hall they were pre-
Sented with carnations and
other flowers, secured from a
Kalispell conservatory. The
dance was conducted in a most
pleasing manner and the Hilla
played no small part
in making it the splendid sue
cess that it was. If a popularity
vote were conducted that even
ing the roundhouse boys would
surely have carried the day.
They have added fresh laurels
Co their reputation as most sue
cessful dance promoters.
About midnight a splendid
supper was served by
the Catholic ladies, at the Case
building. The evening, all in
all. was one of the most pleas
ant in the social annals Of this
town.

Brltain,s Re-niehtse-d Drama.

James Douglas in London Opinion:
The British drama is no longer be-
nighted; it Is be-nightie-d. In nearly
all the new plays the heroine Is put to
bed or prepared. for bed, and the aud
fence Is permitted to see the very new
est nighties and the very latest peig-
noirs.
This sounds very shocking, but the
stage nightie and the stage peignoir
are very substantial garments, and
they are not half SO naughty as they
seem. In fact, a woman is more COM
pletely dressed when she Is undressed
than when she is dressed nowadays.
That is the paradox of the lingerie
school of dramatists. The more they
taxi off the more they put OH.
The theatres are forced to do some
thing desperate to meet the fierce COM
petition of the picture theatres. the
music halls. What can the starving
dramatist do if he is forbidden to en-
plot the mysteries of the wardrobe?
He has tried every other device to at
tract the public. But the public are
tired of all his tricks. They demand
brains behind the foetlights. AS the
poor dramatist in nine cases out of
tents BORN without brains he is com
PEELED to try the lure of silk stockings
or the bait of lingerie. If he has no
head, he must rely on hose. If he has
no intellect he must put his trust in
nighties. If he cannot cast out dull
ness he must at least cast off clothes.
1t is felt that If the worst come to the
| worst the British theatre may owe its
salvation to the laundry

gathered in. conference here, reviewed
with high praise. the ~endeavors of hu-
manitarian, organizations of the Unit
ed States and Canada for the proven
ton of blindness and to assist in the
uplift of those SO afflicted.
Right living was characterized as
the most important form of proven
ton, atand enforced idleness'' was de-
clared to be the worst cruelty that
could be inflicted upon a blind per-
son. ,#l s4a
C. M. Abbott, secretary of the New
York commission for the blind, told
Of the establishment of information
bureaus where the blind could, be
taught to use their hands and earn
money. He condemned the sale Of
cheap eyeglasses and said a commits
sion would soo be appointed. to in
vestigate this phase of sight d~estruc-
ton. sfE3 r
E..P. Moreford of Brooklyn said
that enforced idleness was the torture
of the blind. He urged that steps be
taken to ascertain the principal cause
of blindness and to disseminate the
information among the people.
Other speakers included w. l.
lScandlin, secretary of the New York
Association for the Blind: Mrs. E. b.
Palmer: secretary Of the Ohio com
mission; Miss French, Rhode Island
