Bad Strategy.

Gen Hugh L. Scott was talking in
Salt Lake City about strategy.
Too many strategists." he said.
Jump at conclusions. They are too
hasty They begin a new movement
before the old one is finished Hence,
all manner of errors.
These strategists are like the floor
walker whom a married man. having
got separated from his wife in the

Excuse me. but I've lost my

The warm looking and dainty
bootees shown in the picture will be
easy to make by those VINO under
stand crOcheting. They are crocheted
of white zephyr and shaped to fit
over the knees. A beading is worked
in near the top and narrow pink satin
ribbon run through it makes it pos
sible to tie the boots so that they
will not slip down.
A novel and very pretty touch is
given these bootees by the tiny pink
rose buds that are embroidered on
them with silk floss.
Little wooden hangers are covered
with cotton for a padding and over
this light satin ribbon is shirred. The
hook is wound with the ribbon and
the hanger finished with a pretty bow

Experience has taught DR.. Pierce that
"Anuric" is the most powerful agent
in dissolving uric acid, as hot water
melts sugar, besides being absolutely
harmless and is endowed with other
properties, for 1t preserves the kid
neys in a healthy condition by thor
oughly cleansing them. Checks the de-
generation of the blood-vessels, as well
as regulating blood pressure. 'Anuric"
is a regular insurance and life-saver
for all big meat eaters and those who
deposit lime-salts in their joints. Ask

BOWDOIN DUCKS NOT ILL.

Reports that have been sent out
that ducks were dying at Lake Bow
ooin by the hundreds, ETC., are abso-
lutely false and without foundation.
Some of the best shooting ever
known at Bowdoin has been had the
past day or SO and not a dead or
sick duck is to be found, onlv what
have been shot by the hunters since
the season opened. H. M.Kirton, Sec
rotary of the Milk River Gun Club,
waited upon an investigating COM
mittee who had visited the lake
Wednesday and this committee re-
ports the ducks as lively as ever and
that no dead were found. In the
Whitewater country north of here
the ducks are the best this season
they have ever been and there is
no disease of any Kind among any
of the ducks in the lakes around
Malta. People who make bust
ness of spreading false rumors are
likely to come to grief sooner or
later as all it takes is little inves-
tigating to show them up.
O. r. Hess, John Cavanaugh,
Brace Allen and others returned on
the morning train today from Bow
dom and each and every one of
them had handsome string of
ducks. This pa. ty say they covered
the lake in the two days they were
there and never saw sick or dis
eased duck on the surface of the
water and brand the "sick" story
as the biggest farce ever framed up.

LABOR DAY CELEBRATION.

The time of the year has arrived
for the annual celebration of labor
day and this year the people of the
Little Rockies are going to eclipse
all former efforts with fitting OBJ
servance of this day at Zortman
next Monday, September 9TH. Large
posters are out announcing the i'm
portant events which will include
the customary drilling contest so
dear to the hearts Of the miners, a
thrilling bucking contest in which
some of the famous outlaw horses
of that section will be riden by rid
ers who guarantee to ride without
pulling leather. There will be the
usual street races for little folks and
horse race for both ladies and
gentlemen. In the evening a grand
ball will be given and music will be
furnished by the Orpheum orchestra
of this city. During the afternoon
a matched game of ball will be
played between Chinook and Fort
man. The comittee in charge of the
celebration has hung up a purse of
5000 for prizes and invites every
one who can to attend their celebra-
ton this year.
Last year number of cars went
out from Malta to the Zortman
Labor Day celebration and this year
with better roads and more cars,
the attendance from here ought to
be double what it was last year.

GOOD WHEAT EXPECTED.

That the monster wheat crop of
Montana will mean the greatest
grain exhibits ever shown at the
Montana State Fair is the belief of
Secretary p. B. Snelson, who has
made arrangements for the showing
Of more wheat, oats, rye, barley and
other grains and grasses than in
any previous years.
The fair this year is held during
the week of September 1925, by
which time all harvest in Montana
will practically be over. Numerous
entries for the Studebaker auto
wheat prize are coming in daily.
Grain growers in every section of
the state will send the specified
amount of grain to compete for the
splendid auto, which is the largest
individual prize ever given by a
state fair.
It is anticipated that more inter-
est will be taken in the farm pro-
ducts and cattle divisions than ever
before. Montana's agricultural pop
ulation is steadily increasing. The
fair management by proper cooper
alton with the farmers hopes to
make the 1919 exposition the great
est agricultural fair in the country.
To encourage large attendance
this year the railroads are again
cooperating with the fair and will
give half fare rates on the round
trip to Helena. Local agents have
instructions from headquarters to
give all information concerning
freight shipments and passenger
rates to those who inquire.

MALTA SCHOOL NEWS.

Work on the new building is pro-
crossing rapidly. Contractor Mont
gomery expects to have it ready for
occupancy about Oct LIST.
The new building will be better
heated, better lighted and better
ventilated than the old building.
1t will be credit to the community.
Until the new building is COM
pleted the old building will be used.
At the opening of school next
Monday Sept. 6, the following corps
of teachers will be in charge: Prin-
cipal, John L.Elliott; assistant prin-
cipal, Miss Hilda A. Berg; sixth and
seventh grades. Miss Grace Ramore;
fourth and fifth grades, Miss May
Macarthur; third grade, Miss Dor
othy Aver; second grade, Miss
Alice Coughlin; first grade, Miss
Voyla Hakes. Misses Berg, Near
thur and Coughlin, who are the new
teachers on the staff, come with a
where.
The fact that two of the high
school graduates of last year took
the examinations for teachers GER
tificates recently, indicates that
IHere VIII, IN the near future, be
a need for a certain amount of in
struction in the high school to pre-
pare the boys and girls for work as
teachers in the schools of Phillips
county.
Up in Havre the school trustees
have voted to tax out of the district
pupils that sum which it actually
costs the district to educate a pupil.
In the high school, which would
natu ally have the largest foreign
attendance, the tuition is fixed at
$40 per month. While this tuition
is high and almost prevents the
majority of the country boys and
girls from attending high school, it
seems just. If arrangements might
be made to have the district to
which the pupil belongs pay this tu-
ition it would be equitable to all
concerned

WHAT PARAMOUNT
PICTURES ARE.

The Paramount Picture Corpora
ton is distributor of clean photo
plays. The producing companies
whose films constitute the major
part of he Paramount program are
the Famous Players Film Company,
the oldest feature picture making
concern in this country, with which
are associated the interests of the
late Charles Froham, his brother
Daniel, and Henry w. Savage; the
Jesse L. Lasky Feature Play Com
pany, in which David Belesco is
interested; the Oliver Morosco Pho
toplay Company, sponsored by the
Pacific Coast manager whose name
it bears. and Pallas Pictures, Inc,
in whose productions such stars as
Dustin Farnum and Maclyn Ar
buckle appear. In addition to these
the Paramount program is from
from time to time entered by an
outside producer whose output is
of sufficient merit to justify such
m,ve.
Mary Picford, Marguerite Clark,
Pauline Frederick. Marie Doro, John
Barrymore and many others appear
in the Famous Players films.
The Lasky Company recently
startled the theatrical world by Sc
curing Geraldine Farrar for the
Paramount program. Others in
Lasky productions are Edith Wynne
Matthison, Rita Jolivet, Victor Moore
Blanche Sweet, Ina Claire, Edgar
Sewyn, Charlotte Walker and
Carlyle Blackwell.
The Morosco forces give to the
screen such players as Fritz Scheff,
Lois Meredith, Myrtle Stedman and
George Fawcett.
George Balkan has been seen at
theatres showing Paramount Pic
lures, in The Italian" produced by
the New York Motion Picture Cor
poration, and Viola Dana in "The
House of the Lost Court" produced
by the Thomas A. Edison Co.
From this it is not hard to under
stand the saying among film fans:
"The houses showing Paramount
Pictures are more than likely to be
the best in any town."
