also appearing every day and these
are the people Malta has to thank
for bringing this big company to our
city and making it over into a movie
center for a week.
This week the picture is being
completed in the Little Rockies af-
ter which the company will all re-
turn to the studio at St. Paul to fin
ish some interior scenes for the big
picture
The members of the company are
each and everyone about as nice
people as it has been our pleasure to
meet and they have made themselves
right at home in Malta as we want
them to and we hope to see more of
such a class of motion picture peo-

The enterprise. [volume] (Harlem, Mont.) 1899-1926, 1916-09-21

Ever since the arrival here of tn
members of the Great West Film
company, Malta has been strictly a
moving picture center. The prin-
cipal streets, the Great Northern ho-
tel, Shady's barn, the depot and in
fact all of the different points of
interest in the city have come in for
their share of space in the reels now
being taken.
Not only have the buildings got
their share but some of our staid
and respected citizens have turned
out to be "movie stars Among
those who have been most promi-
nent before the camera the past
week were John Shady, Clarence
Brockway, Clayton Snyder, "Shorty''
Gelse, Doc Young, Jonny Mayberry
and others whom you would not
think ever had leaning towards
this kind of life have entered into
the new work with heart and soul
and no doubt will soon be seen ali
over this great old U. S. A. as prin-
c1pal characters in the picture "The
Golden Goddess.
Manager William Tobin OF the
him company, says he has never il
all his experience been treated as
he has here, as nothing was too
good for the company, and nothing
asked for has been refused. For
the filming of the scene showing the
arrival of the school teacher, the
Dodson-Little Rockies stage COM
Dany kindly loaned one Of their big
coaches and sent man and team
here from Dodson with the old
coach and this made a most realistic
scene.

MAKING \ TOWN isEAs'TEETI.

One OF the chief things that aid
IN the beautifying Of any town is
the setting out and caring for shade
trees. The writer remembers be-
ing in the city OF Grand Forks, n
d., about twenty years ago and most
OF the back and side streets were
barren Of any vegetation Whatever.
few years later they commenced
setting out trees along the PRINCIPAL
streets and still later the streets
were all houleyarded and today
Grand Forks is one of the most
beautiful cities in North Dakota. the
dense foliage ei the yrees aud shrub
berry giving the city the appearance
OF huge forest If viewed from
above.
A few years ago some of the most
energetic Of cur Malta citizens took
the pains to set Out few trees and
by careful nursing they now have a
beautiful grove surrounding their
homes. Some evening or as the
days are too short now, take a few
moments at noon and look at the
homes of Charles Secrest, Ed. Powell
Lee Edwards, John Survant, Fred
Hall and others and see if it don't
make you feel like you ought to do
YOUR little mite towards making the
nome town more attractive. All Of
the above trees have been set ont
only the past few years, but with
proper care they have matured and
today form a splendid shade for the
various owners and not only that but

Marriage VS.. Common Sense.

So many women are annoyed and
displeased If their husbands even dare
TO suggest fishing, hunting, skating
or skiing trip with the boys If
they did but realize it, these little
separations do more to make home
dearer. Short vacations away from
each other mako husband and wife all
the more appreciative of the others
good qualities.
So don't frown on your husband s
desire to leave you for a short time
In fact, if he does not express any
wish to leave you, you should pack up
and leave him for a short visit to
friends or relatives. These short sepa.
rations tend to long union, while too
much and too constant propinquity
tends to long separation. Especially
II you feel any signs of a strained at
mosphere between you both, if there
is a formal politeness, or disposition
to snap at each other, you may know
that it is time for one of you to go
visiting for the good Of your marital
relations.
When common sense and good rea-
son live in the same house with hus-
band and wife, dissension does not as
. rule get chance to raise it's head.
