HAVRE MAKES GOOD MOVE

The Chamber of Commerce of Hav-
re is making active preparations for
advertising and boosting Havre. A
secretary has been secured and they
plan on making a campaign to attract
attention to Havre and developing it
in the same tanner pursued by the
Glasgow Commercial Club the past
year.
The wonderful development and in
crease in the business and commercial
interests Of this city, and the atten-
ton Glasgow has received from out
side people since the organization of
the present Commercial Club a year
ago, has caused other cities in north
ern Montana to "sit ID and take no
tice".
Havre realizes that in order to hold
her own against Glasgow, she must
follow in the footsteps of the live
and wide-awake citizens of the Valley
County Metropolis and go out after
the business in a business-like way.
1t is another instance of where a
Commercial Club, properly handled as
the Glasgow Commercial Club is be-
ing conducted, is a most valuable as
set to a city, and the expense of MAIN
tanning an organization, such as the
Glasgow Commercial Club, is return
ed, many, many fold to those who
give their financial support and good
will and furnish the sinews which sup
port the organization.
Havre is to be complimented on
making this move. The more north
ern Montana is advertised and boost
ed the quicker the country will be
settled up, but we believe that when
it m to showing the results ac-
complished, that Glasgow will give
Havre a merry tussle.

to try and induce those friends Ia
break away from the cities and the
older communities and settle in North
Dakota.
The plan seems to be a good one
and doubtless will result in a great
gain in the population of North Da-
kota. But the plan need not be con-
fined to that state alone. Any pros
porous rural community can benefit
itself if it's energetic men and women
will help to spread the gospel of coun-
try life. Almost every one of our
readers can think of some friend or
relative now struggling along in some
town or city who, if transplanted to
a modest farm, would be healthier.
happier and more prosperous than
they are at present. Let read
ers try the North Dakota plan. Write
to your friends, tell them what you
are doing and what you mean to do,
point out to them that farming today
is not what it was 40, 80 or even ten
years ago. Write to your old home
town newspapers and let your old
friends and neighbors know how we'll
you are getting on. Pass a good thing
along. You will be doing your friends
a favor and you will be helping the
community.

HOW THE WIND IS BLOWING

HOW THE WIND IS BLOWING
Two of the big cities of the coun.
try, cities which have been classified
as Democratic, held municipal cleo.
tions yesterday and in each Of them
there was an overwhelming Repub.
lican victory. In Chicago, the Repub-
lican candidate was elected over his
Democratic opponent by a plurality
of 100000 and a majority of 11,475
the highest ever given a mayorality
candidate in that city. In St. Louis
the entire Republican ticket of alder
men, tw~enty-eight, altogether, was
elected by pluralities around 5000.
There can be no question but this
complete over-turning of the Demo-
Gratis in these two Democratic cities
as Indicative of the sentiment of the
country On the question of party con-
troll. The congressional elections last
fall showed Enthusiastically the trend of
public sentiment was away from the
Democrats to the Republicans. Dur
ing the winter there has been a get
ting together of the elements of the
Republican party which were divided
a full realization by all of the people
that there can be no real prosperity
under a Democratic administration in
the nation, and the first opportunity
since last fall the people have had to
show their feelings was at the NUM-
cipal elections yesterday. They have
shown Enthusiastically by the results in
the heretofore Democratic cities of
Chicago and St. Louis what that sem
timent is.
The election of a Democratic may
or IN Butte dld not involve any issue
between Republicans and Democrats.
1t was one between Socialism
and all of those who are oppos-
ed to it. and there was, as the Butte
papers say, a breaking down of par
ty lines and union on the Democratic
candidate for mayor because it was
believed he had the best chance to
defeat the Socialist candidate.-Re-

ARBOR DAY PROCLAMATION

"Well grounded in the life of the people of Montana is
the custom that demands the setting aside of one day in
each year for observance in such manner as will impress
upon our citizens in every walk the vital value of practical
conservation of resources. Year by year the custom grows,
and our people more and more enthusiastically enter into
the spirit of this day, which is d designed to spread the gospel
of Enhanced beauty in landscapes, beautiful grounds and
beautiful home surroundings. On the threshold of another
season of growth and fruitage, it is well for us to pause in
our preparations for the summers activities and give tan
gible expression to our contemplation of these things.
Therefore, !, S. V. Stewart, as Governor of the state of
Montana, do hereby designate and set apart Tuesday, the
18th day Of May, 1916, as Arbor Day.
ION this date let all citizens who are proud of their
state, their cities, and villages and their homes give such
observance to the occasion as will mark them as responsive
to the promptings of progress. Let the schools of the state
give such notice to the day as will ~indeibly impress it's
purport and it's lessons upon the pupils mind, and let the
citizens, singy or in groups, as occasion may offer, devote
at least a portion of the day to the planting of trees and in
otherwise making more attractive the abiding places of
men. Thus shall we carry out the intent of our law and do
that which shall rebound to the lasting benefit of the indi-
vidual and the community"

Card Party a Success.


The Ladies' Guild of the St. Matth-
ews' Episcopal church gave their Eas-
ter card party and sale at the Glib
son Opera House Tuesday and it was
a wonderful success.
In the afternoon there were ten
tables Of Auction Bridge played and
in the evening twelve tables of Auc-
ton Bridge and eight tables of Whist.
In the afternoon Mrs. j. E. Dawson
won first prize and Mrs. Thomas Dig
nan second prize. In the evening the
ladies' first prize in Auction Bridge
was won by Mrs. Alsop and second
prize by Mrs. Schaffer. The gentle
mems first prize was won by Mr.. Leo
Schaffer and the second prize by Mr.,
Alsop. In whist, Mrs. W. F. Shannon
won the ladies first prize and Mrs
Tice the second prize. Mr.. J.. ],
Mullins won the gentlemen's first
prize and Mr.. Voter the gentlemen's
second prize. Refreshments were
served afternoon and evening and
delightful music helped greatly to en-
terrain those present.
The sale of household goods and
wearing apparel was also a success
and through the efforts of Mr.. S. C
| Moore, who acted as %auctioneer, all the
articles brought good prices. After
refreshments, in the evening the fool
was cleared and the young folks in

The State of North Dakota has be-
gun to put into operation a plan which
should bring thousands of new settlers
within the next year. The legislature
has appropriated sec, 900 for the pro-
motion of immigration in the next two
years. R. F. Fine, commissioner of
agriculture has given an impetus to
the plan by asking the cooperation of
all the country newspapers in the
state to induce their readers to write
personal letters to old friends "back
home" Those farmers who are we'll
situated and who have prospered are
urged to write their friends and rela-
tives in the older states, in the cities
and in Europe, too, telling them of

THE "KNOCKER" KNOCKED

THE "KNOCKER" KNOCKED
At the laying Of the cornerstone of
the First Baptist Church Sunday af-
ternoon, DR.. M. D. Hoyt, was called
to speak on the Relation of the Com
mercial interests to the Church."
The good doctor began by saying
that he had been accused of starting
everything from a foot race to a
Fourth of July celebration and there
seemed to be no reason why he not
help lay the cornerstone of the First
Baptist Church in Glasgow. He gave
this as his excuse for being among
them. He commented on the enthu-
siasm and spirit displayed by the
ladies of the church in helping to
bring about the erection of this build
ing, and that it was largely through
their boosting efforts that the corner
stone laying of the Baptist Church
was observed on Easter Sunday.
"The Lord loves a booster" he said,
" and everybody loves a booster, but
nobody has any use for a Knocker.
Therefore be a booster always. Boost
for your church, boost for your home,
boost for your city. If can't boost,
don't say anything"
He soundly raped the man who
lived in a town and obtained his live
lihood from the people of the town.,
yet could see no good in anything that
was done for the benefit of the city
and was practically knocking every
thing and everybody. He said these
people evidently misunderstood the
biblical passage, "knock and it shall
be opened unto YOU"
Optimism and boosting go hand in
hand and are the foundation for the
growth Of every city. The pessimist
and the knocker are "a cankerous
growth upon the body polite" and
should be eliminated.
Our city will be better, brighter
and buster if we all boost.
"DO Not Knock"
"All the world knocks a knocker.
This increases the din of the anvil
chorus. Don't even knock a knocker;
don't listen to him. Where there is
no ear, there no sound is. The knock
er will not knock long where no ap-
probation is shown.
Knock not, lest We be knocked. We
can find something to knock in every
one, and everyone can find something
to knock in us. Be charitable to 9TH
ers and you will show the truest char

WILL REPAIR ROAD

The bad grade on the Behner hill
on the Glasgow-O pheim road will soon
be put into good condition by the
County Commissioners. This hill is
one of the worst spots in the road
between Glasgow and the north coun-
try and many of the farmers from
the north country have been hauling
their grain and supplies to Scobey
rather than take a chance on the bad
grade. Through the efforts of the
Glasgow Commercial Club, the County
Commissioners and the business men
of the city will furnish funds with
which to repair the road.

nounced calmly that she had studied
dancing ever since she was a child,
it came as delightful surprise to
the worried director. For an actress
can hardly be expected to have the
art of dancing at her finger tips, as
it were.
In '"The Broken Toy" this capital
actress enacts an exquisite role with
such pathos and feeling that many
will have recourse to their 'kerchiefs.
The story hinges on the life of a
young girl whose parents, both cir
Gus people, die and leave her almost
destitute. All she can do is danes
beautifully and that she does until it
is almost too late. For the young
ballet girl meets with many OBJ
stacles in her effort to lead a clean,
wholesome life.
