The Articles Of Faith Of the Church
Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-day Saints
were formulated by Joseph Smith the
prophet, through whom the Church
was established as an organization
among men IN April 1880. While it Is
manifestly impossible for any re-
lisious body to set forth in a brief
statement all the distinguishing fea-
lures OF their doctrines and practice,
II has become usual for churches to
enoody the fundamentals of their
common belief in condensed form as
creeds. When asked for a concise
Presentation Of the principal doctrines
accepted by his people, Joseph Smith
responded with The Articles Of Faith
presented below. This was in the
year 1sl.
From the time Of their first promul-
cation The Articles Of Faith have
been In force as an authorized state
ment OF belief; and they were early
adopted as, such by the Church in
general conference assembled.

|ORcAN|zE EQUITY LOCAL.
Farmers Of Drummond Get
Together and Affiliate
With Missoula Branch.

DruinmOnd, Jan. (Special.)-A
local organization of the American So
ciety Of Equity was formed here last
night at a meeting Of Drummond
farmers. A business organization,
which viii be called the Equity Co.
| Operative association Of Drummond,
was completed at the same time. The
latter organization will start with u
capital stock OF $4,000. which Is to be
increased later to $4,000,
Affiliation was accomplished with
| the Missoula branch, the district or
ganization in which are joined the
local societies Of the seven western
Montana counties. Ravalli. F1athead,
Sanders. Mineral, Missoula. Granite
and Powell.
The Drummond local is the first or
ganized in Granite county, Its estab-

gives the movement a foothold in a
! county which il rapidly coming to
the front as an agricultural section.
Mr.. Carlton, an organizer for the
sAiuSilCVI soOCtCkS VI Equity, alleuus
ed the meeting here and assisted in
the organization.
The farmers Of Drummond are to
be congratulated for taking the in
itial step in cooperation in Granite
county," said one Of the officials in the
new organization. Granite county Is
fast coming to the front in the pro-
duction of grain. hay and livestock.
With loyal support and commonsense
business methods the local and the
business organization should succeed
Concerted action with the rest Of the
Missoula district is now possible, and
the other counties are thoroughly ora
ganized. An important result should
be a disappearance of the talk of
boys and girls leaving the farm. More

letters have run up to q total of more
| than 100000. AS the department re-
turns all money enclosed in letters of
appeal and as Il person writing from
England cannot well enclose Italian
stamps for international correspond
ence, the stamp bill alone OF the de-
partmcnt has been upwards of $780,
geo.
After making an official demand on
the government of the country where
the lost soldier is supposed to be, the
department causes each new name to
be posted up in the military prison
camps. by the aid Of u Catholic chap
lain always present in the hope that
some of the lost soldiers comrades
may see the name and offer some clue
that will lead to his location. Several
thousands of such lists have been
printed. There are 10 lists, each con-
| tanning zoo names, for the Italian
army alone. making thus a total of
/ $4,000 lost Italian soldiers. Aside from
: this, the department has copies of Of
fetal army prisoner lists, arranged by
| nations. and it Immediately searches
| these lists carefully for the name of
| the lost soldier
Despite the difficulties of the task,
| the department has so far been able
| to find more than 10000 lost soldiers,
and the pope has received a treasured
collection of letters of thanks from
| families, often from little children, who
address him as Mister" or who give
him the title names of popcs dead
many hundreds of years.
| The correspondence of The Associated
| Press on a visit to the department saw
IA bundle of letters that had just been
sent by the pope, possibly IS in num-
Der, and on the envelope of each one
In his own handwriting was written
directions concerning It's disposition
Among the heap was a letter from his
sister. the Countess pcrsico della
Chicsa of Genoa. The countess begs
attention again" the pope had writ
ten on the letter. Another one of tho
letters was one of thanks from q
French family whose son, Jean La
forguc, had been for two years in the
Orient without being able to send news
to his family of himself. but the pope
had been able to discover this lost sol
at Samsam, in distant Turkey.

from the family of Count Hugo d,
Rochefort. lieutenant in the acronauti'
corps, who, during the Somme often

to learn that the young men had die,

LOST SOLDIERS LOCATED
Pope Takes Lead in Giving
Information to Distracted
Relatives.

Rome. Correspondence OF The AS
ISOLATED Prcss.) Pope Benedict XIV,
through the department Of lost soldiers
established at the Vatican, has aided
In learning the whereabouts of more
than 10000 lost soldiers about whom
heart-brokcn relatives had inquired
through personal appeals to His Holt
ness. He is receiving, and has re-
ccivcd since the war began some 200
letters Il day from distracted parents,
wives and sweethcarts in all of the
bclligerent nations, pleading that he
use his good offices to learn whether
their loved ones, about whom they
have been unable to hear anything,
are dead, wounded, sick or prisoners.
The pope has found this one of the
saddest phases of the war. Notwith-
standing the size of his daily mail, he
reads all such letters himself. In the
beginning of the war he attempted to
investigate each personally, but the
task became so formidable that it was
necessary to establish II separate de-
partment at the Vatican, now in
charge of Father Huismarn, under tho
popc's direction. His Holiness, after
reading one of the appeals, makes some
rotations on its envelope and sends II
to the department of lost soldiers
which has it's offices on the fourth
floor of the Vatican near the papa

MERR|CK PLANS CLEANUP
New County Attorney of
Superior Promises to
Enforce Laws.

Strict enforcement of laws relating
tanned in Mineral county, according to
County Attorney Ivan l.. Mcrrick OF
Superior, who was in Missoula yes
tcrday. These laws have been relaxed
IN the past, says the county attorney:
they viii be made potent at once.
Mr. Mcrrick formerly lived in Mis-
soula and is one Of the first gradu-
atcs of the law school at the State
University to be elected Il public at
torney. He is. he says, planning to
make as good Il record as he can. and
will begin by enforcing saloon and
brothcl laws.
our chief trouble in Mineral coun-
ty will not be with houses OF prosti-
tuition, though many of them are now
winked at by some officers, but with
| roadhouscs and saloons. The state law
now provides that saloons cannot be
licensed in rural communities unless
| they are maintained in connection with
hotels OF 20 rooms or more, or when
there are within IA radius of quarter
of II mile at least so people OF whom
a majority want Il saloon.
Despite this, many unlawful sa-
| looms are now licensed in Mineral
county. In st. Regis. for example
there are several saloons which ought
to be closed. st. Regis has quite u
large population but the town Is SO
scattered that so people cannot DE
found within quarter Emile radius
of most of the saloons. Similar con-
| ditiOnS prevail elsewhere"
