c. A. Bennington came in Monday
from Oilton to look after farm and
stock interests near Elmwood. Mr..
and Mrs. Bennington lived in Beaver
at one time, Mrs. Bennington teach
ing in the school here. They are now
located at Oilton where Mrs. Ben
nington is still interested in school
work and, as side issue, is editor of
one of the local papers there. Her
Job must differ from that Of the edi-
tor of The Herald. This shop re-
quires all our time. About all we do
as a "side-issue" is to try to live and
we scarcely have time to do that as
a rule, particularly when a printer
"flies the coop" without SO much as
giving notice. however, we try to ap-
ply the good lesson Of "Polly Anna
and we are glad that in case Of an
emergency we have the strength and
ability to take care Of the mechanical
end Of the business as well as the

times. We fear that more than our

There are two young business
women in Beaver who are going to
make good in life or we miss our
guess. Now, you are wondering who
"the other one" is. Wrong again!
We do not have the editor of The
Herald in mind as one Of them.
These two young ladies are Alice and
Virginia Garrett, little daughters Of
Mr.. and Mrs. H. P. Garrett. These
bright, attractive little Misses came
tripping into The Herald office one
day last week and announced that
they wanted to join the Red Cross.
When we told them the cost OF men,
bership, they proudly drew check
on their own bank account and took
care of the whole transaction in a
most business like way inquiring as
they finished, "Now when do you
want us to meet?" If that isn't
business, what is it? Many older
people in Beaver have refused TO do
the very thing that these little girls
did of their own free will, paying out
their own money that they had saved
and put in the bank when it might
have been spent for candy which,
everybody knows, all children love.

served his country we'll
I'm a noteworthy address on The
scope and powers Of the federal
judiciary in the house of repre-
sentatives Oh February 10. 1902,
Mr. Bayard said: Let it be re
membercd that no power is 50
senslbly felt by society, as that
Of the Judiciary. The life and
property Of every man j. Liable
to be in the hands of The judges. ="
We recall these words With
special interest at a time when
the life of the country as we'll as
that of the citizen is at stake.
The last place We would look for
lrnlencN for >Iackcr> or lack Of
sympathy With prosecution Of
avowcd or suspected enemies Of
the government would be a Uni

said, mo power Is So Sen,ihly felt

federal Judiciary in time Of war.
Mr.. Bayard was dcsccndent Of
Chcvaliar Bayard, and in his long
and splendid career he kept ever
before his eyes the motto Of the
great original Of his name Once
he wrote 10 a relative. my am

WHY NOT FORT MlSSOUIAo

We are at a loss to understand
why the government has not
made larger Use of Snch we'll
equipped military posts as Fort
MssouIa. If there is a satiSiac-
tory reason. it has failed to reach
Us.
We have at our doors What
seems to Us al ideal plant and
location for such aggressive war
preparation as our government
is engaged i'll. The construction
of environments for the great
army that is being trained is alb
solutely necessary, but why not
make use Of The smaller posts as
well? There have been many
complaints Of the delayed worN
on some environments. 1t seems
to rs that. at least. un'll these are
ready for use the posts should be
available for training purposes,
and indeed We do not see why
they are not available as perma-
ncnt camps.
The post at Missoula is excel
lcntIN equipped. 1t has every
thing that is needed for prcpar-
ing small bodies of men tor war
work. From the beginning, Il
very large sum Of money has
been expended upon il. While
its importance as a frontier out
post was reduced long ago, it
should have new uses at this time
when the country has gone into
war work on an unbelievable
scale. We would like further in
formation on this point from our
representatives in Congress and
from the War Department.

that local authorities add thirty min
utes to the five hour school day as q
means Of providing $50 minutes week

was appointed by the board Of educa-
ton to investigate the Camp Fire
courses and system, and it was de-
cided to give certain amount Of
credit for walking, swimming and
other physical exercises taken under
the direction Of this organization.
One count per year has been fixed

throughout the country, is expected to
extend to other states.

THANKSGIVING

An editorial in the November Wom-
ans Home Companion says:
For the first time since Austria
struck the match which fired Europe,
Americans can eat their Thanksgiving
dinner with proud hearts and sacri-
fetal JOY.
THE three last Thanksgiving days
were full of turkey and plum pudding,
but empty OF noble gladness and Sc
renity.
We could not unconcernedly eat our
fill when thousands of our fellow crea-
lures were starving. We could not
thank God. with the Pharisee. that we
were not as the rest of men. because
the vision of those men-our brothers
lying with stiffening wounds on the
battlefield. or sinking into the whirl Of
waters while the submarine sped on
it's deadly way. robbed us of our peace
of mind.
Now in this annus mirabilis. this
wonderful year OF 1911, when the soul
Of the nation has spoken. when we
have turned our backs upon ease, and
comfort. and security at once threat
ened and ignoble. We are prepared to
celebrate Thanksgiving day with SOL
emn piety and purpose. We have not
so loved, our lives as to lose them. We
have refused to acauiesce in wrong
doing. We have accepted our share OF
responsibility for the 2well-being OF
the civilized world

FRIDAY. ocrosER ~, 1917.

Lincoln, Logan county Ill.,. is
working out a big idea. Today
there will be staged something
unique in the way of "Love Thy
Neighbor as Thyself' parade.
Lincoln boasts that it has that
spirit and is to hold community
demonstration as evidence, and
with the hope that similar
movement will be started
throughout the country. The
brotherhood of man has been
preached from many pulpits by
paid preachers, but SO far as we
know, Lincoln is the first to adopt
it as a community slogan. The
idea is fine and we wish some
thing of the sort might be done
in the Garden City of Montana.
We know to our SORROW that Mis-
soula is repnted to he a commun-
ity Of discordant spirits, and
when we think what might be
accomplished for the community
if a more brotherly feeling cx-
listed between our people we are
ready to propheSy almost any
form of progress. We suggest
that our Chamber Of Commerce
get in touch With The leading citi-
zens Of Lincoln. Illinois, learn
how the thing is done and then
do it in Alissoula.
