Richey Delegation
Visits Circle Tuesday

Last Tuesday forenoon at about
1870 nine automobiles rolled into
town, carrying about As people
all being members of the Richey
Chamber of Commerce, who were
out on booster trip mainly to get
acquainted with Circle.
A large number of local business
men were present to welcome
them and show them around our
"great big little city," it being the
first trip here for a good many of
them.
The main object of their visit
here was to persuade Circle to
come and spend July 4th with
them and then they would return
the compliment some other time.
A joint meeting of the Richey
Chamber of Commerce and the
Circle Commercial Club was held
in the afternoon to talk the matter
over, but at the meeting, after
both clubs had expressed them
selves, it developed that Circle felt
she owed it to the community to
stay at home and go head with
her own celebration, this year
above all other years, and were
very sorry that they could not
accept the invitation of our nearest
railroad town, but hoped to be
able to do so some other time.
The question of good roads be-
tween the two places was also
talked over and a committee con-
sisting of Arnold and Gerald of
Richey and Winkler and Stephens
of Circle was appointe to look into
the matter.
The Richey delegation was as
fine a bunch of boosters as we
have ever met and we sincerely
nope that they may find time to
all on us again.

Circle Ball Team
Given Loyal Support

At the Commercial club meeting
last Monday evening the question
of a ball team for Circle this year
was taken up and everyone was
very much in favor of having a
good strong team and pledged their
united support.
A committee consisting of D. L.
Eastburn, H. w. Johnson and C. A.
Anderson was appointed to take a
subscription list around town and
raise the mon" Tuesday morn
ing about $175.00 had already been
raised and there's some more in
sight. Besides this Ira Fox, the
movie man, has offered to donate
the use of his hall for a dance to
be given by the Ball club on Sat-
urday June 9th, and also one-half
of the receipts of the show. The
admission for the show on this
night will be SOC, one-half going to
the ball team. Dance tickets are
$1.50 including supper.
The committee has already
ordered new suits for the team and
other equipment.
The ball boys are already practic-
ing every spare moment and next
Sunday will have a real workout
on the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS play the
married men and that'll surely get
the boys warmed up"
The lineup for this years ball
team is the best we've ever had
and we don't hesitate to say Circle
will have the "best team in the
Valley'-barring none.

Tuesday June 9th Registration
Oay--Year I'm mpriSonment ForFai|ure

On Tuesday June 5th is Regis
tration day all over the United
States and there are approximate
ly 100000 men between the
ages of 81 and 80, inclusive, that

1t is thought that about one
million men will be drafted and
called to the colors by Sept. 1st.
The drafting is to be done accord
ing to population.
Let every man between the ages
of 81 and 80, show their love for
their country by promptly re-
spending and register OH this day
and when Uncle Sam calls you to
the front you will gladly go and
do your bit towards maintaining
the peace, liberty and freedom of
our dear old United States.
Sheriff Twible has sent out
word that for failure to register,
means fine of one year imprison-
ment. Let there not be one such
case here.

Nelson Agency Bring
ing Bonefde Settlers

The Nelson Real Estate Agency
the firm which purchased all o1
the N. P. lands in township 1915
are sure some real boosters. They
have already brought out several
auto loads full of buyers from
Minnesota to view the lands and
have already sold several tracts.
The people they are bringing in
here are actual settlers and men
of means who can go head and do
things.
Last Monday w. F. Nelson ac-
companied by his brother E. R.
Nelson, were here with a party of
landseekers and understand sew
eral of them are buying some of
the land. The gentlemen who
were here and whom we had the
pleasure of meeting personally,
while the gentlemen were examin-
ing Mr.. Limmesand's alfalfa field
east of town, were: Nels N. Lin
dell, Dawson, @. w. Anderson and
son Axel of Milaca, Robert King,
Sidney Grow, Oscar Wallem and
Albert Puckow of Princeton, Mimi.
The gentlemen expressed them
selves as well pleased with our
country and we hope to see them
locate here.
The Nelson agency expects to
establish a field office here at
Circle in the near future.

81 Towns Will Be
Built For Training Army

Washington, May 17.-Complete
plans for housing 1000 men at
each of the 81 divisional canton
ment camps in which the war army
is to be trained have been worked
out by war department officials
and construction work will be I'M
dertaken as soon as commanders of
the military departments have de-
signated the sites.
Twelve of the camps will go to
the new southeastern department,
comman d ed by Major General
Leonard Wood, making 264,000
troops assigned to that department.
Six camps will be established in
the central department, six in the
southern, three in the western,
four in the eastern and one in the
northeastern department.
In effect the project is to build
81 towns complete, with all necess-
ary equipment and facilities. 1t
will require 100000 feet of lum-
ber which was adopted because the
price of canvass is so high and the
sdpply so short. There will be
1000 buildings in each encamp-
ment. These will include quarters
for officers and men, stables, kitch-
ems, mess halls, bath houses and
in addition to numerous
structures for special purposes.
The majority of the barracks will
be long, low, one-story affairs so

Circle Will Celebrate
The Glorious Fourth

That Circle should celebrate or
July 4th this year, and on a bigger
scale than ever before, was the
unanimous decision of the loca.
Commercial club at its meeting
last Monday night.
The affair this year will far ex-
ceed any undertaking ever at
tempted in the Redwater Valley.
Circle has already conducted a
number of celebrations that have
proven a big success, and she
has always lived up to her prom
ises-and so it will be this year,
only bigger and better than ever.
Circle feels, as nearly all other
towns do, that this year above all
other years, everyone should cele-
brate on July 4th-Independence
Day-the day that means so much
to every-resident of the United
States, and it also feels it her duty
to put on an elaborate celebration
so that every man, woman and
child in the surrounding commun-
ity can have the opportunity to
attend.
This is merely a brief mention
of the big event that is to take
place here on July 4th, but we'll
tell you all about it later. A
committee is already working on
the program whic will be published
in full later. One special feature
this year will be a good orator who
will make an address.
When the finance committee for
the July 4th program solicited do
nations this week from local busi-
ness men, they met with a very
liberal response and in less than
a couple of hours had raised about
800 with more in sight. This will
give you an idea of what a large
scale our big doings will be based
upon.
Circle extends a most hearty
invitation to the citizens of Brock
way, Watkins, Crowley, White,
Paris, Van Norman, Nelson creek,
Horse creek, Weldon, Hamblin,
Redwater, Paxton, Mink, Union,
Bloomfield and Lindsay and all
other communities, to come and
spend the day with us.
You may rest assured there will
be something doing" from sum
rise till the wee small hours of the
following morning-such as races,
bucking contests, ball games, band |
music and most everything you
can think off. Start right now to
talk of 'going to Circle July 4th."

Commercial Club
Has Good Meeting

About 20 members of the local
Commercial club met at the Ander-
son halllast Monday evening which
was one of the most enthusiastic
meetings held here for some time
Peter Rorvik was appointed
chairman of the meeting, owing to
the absenceofp ofpresident Met Claiche.
Upon motion it was decided to
return the fire siren recently or
dered on approval as twas thought
to be too small and B. N. Stoney
was appointed to secure an ade-
quate fire alarm of some other
kind.
During the discussion on fire
protection it was decided to appoint
a committee of three to organize a
fire department. The committee
consists of Guy c. Stephens, B. N.
Stoney and ]. ]. O'Keefe. This
committee is to get a fire depart
ment organized, also to look into
some means of raising money for
buying some fire fighting equipp-
ment, etc.
The club also decided that Circle
is to put on a Farmers Institute
here some time in June, long about
the 18th or 10th.
The question Of base ball team
for Circle was taken up and every
one present strongly approved of
having such an organization and
pledged their support. A COM
mittee consistingofD. L. Eestburn,
C. A. Anderson and H. w. Johnson
was appointed to raise the money
and start things going and conse-
quently everybody is already talk
ing base ball, and prospects are
we'll haye the best team in the
Valley, by far.
The question of celebrating July
4th was also taken up and every
one was of the opinion that this
year, above all other years, we
should celebrate and it was decid-
ed to make it the biggest event
ever pulled off in the Redwater
Valley. A central committee of
0. ]. Thompson, B. N. Stoney and
]. ]. O'Keefe was appointed and
each one of these three to
head subcommittee. Report on
to be made at next meet
ing June 18th.
After brief discussion on sever
al other interesting topics meeting
adjourned.

Little dance after the show Sat-
urday the 26th at the Princess.
In the base ball advertisement
dance tickets are $1.0O including
supper, but this has been changed
to $1.5O including supper for two.
Yes, your renewal of subscrip-
ton now will be appreciated very
much.

arranged as to suit the convenience
of the regiments or larger units.
Each town will cover a little
more than square mile of ground
not including the big tracts of land
necessary for drilling and military
operations during training. Mod
ern plumbing and sanitary arrange
ments will be installed and the
war department expects the can
tonments to be the most up-to-date
barracks of this type erected for
any army.

When it comes to boosting for
the town, or such as giving a cele-
bration, we doubt if there is any
town in eastern Montana that
boasts of more loyal set of bust
ness men than Circle. They are
indeed a "big hearted" bunch
when it comes to doing things for
Circle and the people throughout
this famous valley.

Circle Farm Loan
Association Formed

A meeting was held at Ander
sons hall last Saturday for the
purpose of completing the organ
fization of a local Federal Farm
Loan Association, a mention Of
which was made in last weeks
Banner, and a large number Of
farmers were present.
Following is the board of direc-
tors elected: Albert Coffin, Dan
McCugh, VIM. Braun, J. w. Bick-
erstaff, Adolph Anderson and A. F.
Robson. Officers are: A. F. Rob-
son, President, Dan McCugh, V.
Pres, and Harold Grove was Sc
lected Sec-Treas. Board of ap-
praisers are: Albert Coffin, Nc
Cugh and Robson.
The association will be known as
the Circle Farm Loan Association
and comprises of the following
territory.
Twps. 17-Range 47-48-4o-50
18- 47-48-49-5O
+" 19- 45-46-47-48-49-5O
20 45-46-47-48-49
Applications for loans of approx
imately $4,000 was submitted at
the meeting which is $4,000 more
than necessary to organize a local
association, and there is lot more
to be signed up. These loans run
from 5 to 40 years and draw only
5 percent interest and may be
taken up after 5 years.
The movement is meeting with
considerable favor both in town,
and especially througout the coun-
try, and that it will be of great
benefit there is no question.

sLACKERs AND HEROES

TT is gratifying to note that no ef-
fort has been made in Harrisburg
to discourage registration under
the conscription act. Harrisburg
has responded always to the call of
patriotic duty. 1t has no shameful
chapter in the history of wars. 1t
has no time for the shirker or the
Stacker. It's young men are not war
like; they do not go about seeking
trouble; they would much rather
remain at home in peaceful pur-
suits; but they know their duty and
not one white feather has shown
itself among them.
But other cities are not so fortu-
nate. One can understand the OBJ
jections of red flag anarchists and
peace-at-any- price Socialists, to
whom the law of the land means
no more than the Belgian treaty of
neutrality did to Germany, but the
arrest of college professors and stu
dents on the charge of Matching
plots to hamper the nation in it's
pldilS " IdASO Oil al my 40 LB
news, indeed. 1t shows to what
length the silly twaddle of william
Jennings Bryan and his "Did-not-
raise-my- boy y-to-be-a-soldier" chorus
of peace-with- -dishonor disciples has
gone.
The fair names of Yale, Harvard,
Princeton, Columbia, Barnard and
others of the great colleges and uni
versities are linked with this infa-
nous plot. But students and grad
yates need not feel disgraced be-
cause a few of those connected with
these institutions have gone wrong.
In every one of the numerous train
ing camps, in the ranks of the Ma
tional Guard and drilling as privates
in the regular army barracks the
country over may be found the real
men of colleges and universities,
| bearing themselves like soldiers. And
in France, where the most perilous
work of the Flying Corps and Amer
lean Ambulance is being done, there
may be found the true type of the
American college man, doing his
bit" modestly but courage ously and
efficiently. Upon the firing line, in
the ranks of the Australians, the
| Canadians and the English are
others of them, carrying little Amer
lean flags on their bayonets when
the call to take trench comes hum
ming over the field telephone and
rejoicing that they are the pioneers
of great American army to come :

Rhymes From the Nursery
OUR BIRTHDAYS

Birthdays is jest perfect thing, tell
me, amt it true?
When you get up early bright, en-
someone says to you,
Happy birthday, Jimmy dear!-
then comes up and pulls yer ear,
And yer know yer one more year old
er--say don't yer feel queer?
And when dinner time comes round
gee! yer jump clean off the
ground,
When Ma brings a great big cake,
filled with lights en- stomach ache;
And the kids all sing out loud,
Happy Birthday Amt yer
proud?
Amt yer jest the grand real thing?
Jest the hero of the crowd?
When ma brings the great big cake
filled with lights en- stomach ache.
That's the way the birthdays come,
all the hull year through,
To Jim en- Sam en- Ruth en- Dad, jest
like they come to you.
Mother has them all writ down
none amt never skipped;
Cakes are alters baked and iced with
whites of eggs that's whipped.
Cept when mothers birthday comes
then we set and twirl our thumbs.
No one there to bake a cake-fraid
we'd all make some mistake,
So we kids jest sing out loud
Happy Birthday" en- she's proud
OF the violets we picks for her
kisses round the hull blamed
crowd
Doesn't seem to miss the cake with
the lights and stomach ache!

Not That Kind of a German

One or two things have helped
to make our decision hard for us.
Perhaps the most important is this:
there is no great hatred of the en-
emy, however much we abominate
the things the German government
has driven an acquiescent people
into doing. We all know Germans
here whom we like and respect. We
see them, family folk, sober and in
dustrious and God-fearing, all about
us. They are not Huns or .vandals.
And all the knowledge we have of
a nation gone mad to order hardly
counteracts the effect Of the friend
ly human contacts of our daily
lives with the Germans we know.
We forget that the German we
know has come here to escape the
very thing that has wrecked the old
world: that in coming to this land
cf the free he has followed an ideal
as steadily as back in the fatherland
his kindred are following after the
false gods of hate and war.
He is German, but he is not Prus-
sian, although he may be Prussian
born.-Mary Roberts Rinehart in
Ne Altar of Freedom"
