SERVICE. MORE THAN GIVING
Deepest Spirit Of Christmas Does Not
confine Itself to One Day, but
Is Manifest Entire Year.

The deepest spirit of the Christmas
ontpouring that flows over. the Chris
tan world is the impulse for human
service that runs through the whole
year.
1t is easy to give recklessly out of
ones abundance, or even to share care
fully ones pittance. The distribution
of Christmas dinners through hun
dreds Of self-denying families means a
days happiness for the giver and re-
ceiver. But it is greater happiness to
both to follow through the year with
aid to self-dependence, encouragement
to hope, and support In striving for
better living.
This is the giving Of self, and they
who know how to give of themselves
wisely are the highest givers. The
best feature of Christmas is it's ma
terial expression Of a whole year Of
human service that runs like thread
through human lives.
Only these holiday glimpses reveal
to the careless how many are dedi-
Gated to a share in this unobtrusive
service to the humbly striving and to
the accomplishing needy; how many
families are under constant stimulus
to the best sort of self-help; how many,
children are being quietly led to a
higher level of living and striving for
themselves between Christmas and
hristlnas.

THE UNWR1TTEN LAW" which
Is to be shown at the Play House
July Goth suggests the sensational
type of photodrama. It is sensa.
ti"nal but the same time free
from any taint of cheap sensa-
tionalism.
There is a fight. a personal en-
counter between the hero and the
william, and this scene is plenti-
fully provided with punch"
There is a lurid fire endanger-
ing the lives Of a young mother
and her precious baby. while the
husband lying in the stuper of
alcohol is nearly devoured by the
flames.
A wedding and a murder, a
night in the family room'' of a
sordld resort, and brilliant cab
aret scenes.
Finally, there is the courtroom
scene, flawlessly presented in
which the issues of the far-reach.
ing plot are brought out a logi-
cal and happy conclusion.
These are some of the features
that are presented in the most
realistic pictures in which the
talented emotional actress Bea-
trlz Michelena has yet appeared.

T. R. THEN AND NOW
Progressives Leaders Surrend-
er to The Old Quad

Speaking at a dinner rendered
by National Progressive on the
eve Of his departure for South
America, October 3, 1918, his
farewell address" Col. Roose-
welt declared:
The party is solid. and it is
the firm determination of the
rank and file, no less than the
leaders, to preserve it's political
entity, its solidity and integrity. 3"
Men and women, l would
continue the fight even if | stood

it with a glad and proud heart
because it is made in your COM
pany."
win or lose, whatever the
outcome, l am with you, and /
am for this cause to fight to the
end. We are dedicated in this
great war for righteousness, and
while life lasts we can not and
will not abandon it,
The men who believe that we
wilt ever betray these ideals or
abandon the task to which we
have set ourselves,do not know
US and can not ever guess at the
faith that inspires u.s."
This movement will never 90
back. and whatever may betide
in the future, of one thing the
disciples of an easy opportunism
may rest assured-I will never
abandon the principles to which
we Progressives have pledged
ourselves. and I will never aban-
don the men and women who
drew around me to battle for
Inose principles.
In his message declining the
progressive nomination, Col. r
Roosevelt in 1916 declared:
Our loyalty is to the fact
not merely to the name, and
least of all to the party name"
.'Yet it has become entirely
evident that the people under ex-
listing conditions are not prepared
to accept a new party."
The Progressive national Or
ganization no longer offers the
means whereby we can make
these convictions effective in our
national life. Under such cir
cumstances our duty is to do the
best we can. and not to sulk be-
cause our leadership is rejected"
Under existing conditions the
nomination of a third ticket would
in my judgment, be merely a
move in the interest of the elec-
ton Of Mr.. Wilson. Il shall there.
fore strongly support Mr..
Hughes. can not accept the
nomination Of a third ticket"
Without ano regard to what
the personal feelings of any of
as may be as regards the action
of the Republican convention, I
wish very solemnly to ask the
representatives of the Progress.
We party to consider at this time
only the welfare of the people of
The United States"
Il earnestly bespeak from my
fellow Progressives their un-
support Of Mr..
Hughes.

Fallon County
Democratic Platform


BE 1T RESOLVED. the that
democratic central committee
OF Fallon County. Montana duly
assembled this 18th day of
June, 1916, hereby endorses the
last Democratic national and
state platforms, and especially
do we endorse the magnificent
record of Woodrow Wilson, Pres
ldent OF the United States, who,
together with the aid and sup.
port of a Democratic congress,
has carried out, without fear or
favor, the pledges of the party,
has brought about great and last
ing reforms with as little busi-
ness disturbance as possible, has
broken the power of Wall Street
and set a nation free from the
bondage, fostered under years of
Republican mis-rule, of capital
control, and has above all, safely
plloted his country through the
maestrom Of the great European
conflict. VIII ere Intervention
would have brought all the hor-
ors OF war, seated death at the
American fireside and DESTROYED
forever the era of prosperity with
which this nation is now blessed.
President Wilson, standing up
on the immutable foundations of
Democracy and true American.
ism, has with consumate skill d.
rected the force of civilization.
not with arms, but with reason
and moral pressure, against the
excesses of a war crazed world.
We earnestly solicit in Fallon
County a united endorsement of
our president and the support of
our national and state tickets.
In county affairs we advocate
a policy of economy and extreme
caution in the expenditures of
public funds and an administa-
tlon looking toward the conserv-
alton and development of our
natural resources.
We would reccomend that in
all communities in the county /!
where possible that Wilson clubs
be organized and operate under
the direction of the democratic
county central committee.
We believe that the happiness,
comfort and prosperity of the
rural districts. the up-building of
our towns, and the development
OF the county as whole, is large
ly dependent upon a good system
OF roads and we reccomend an
equitable and practical distribu-
ton of road funds in all parts
Of Fallon County.
We endorse the administration
Of the present democratic officers
Of Fallon County for their capa-
bic service on behalf of the peo.
pie and bespeak the support of
the voters for all democratic NOM
nees in the county at the coming
general election, believing that
