Will Build Residence

Heretofore the Banner editor
and family have resided in rooms
in the rear end of the print shop,
but we have now decided to build
a nice little bungalow over in
South Circle, on Wyoming street
between first and second Avenue.
Our new house wont be any
million dollar affair, (takes money
to do that, in fact it will make us
"dig" to build this one,) } but it will
be nice little five room bungalow,
with large basement, including
cistern and furnace, which will
make living considerably more con-
Portable than at present.
Work has already been started
on the basement and part of the
lumber is expected to arrive today.
Contractor Espeseth has charge
of construction, which will give
him a chance to demonstrate what
he can do when it comes to build
ing neat little bungalows.

Trees Being Planted
In Circle Park

When the Circle townsite wa,
plated some two years ago The
townsite company donated a tri
angular piece of ground, next tt
Circle Heights, to the town to bt
used for park purposes, and last
year members of the local R. N. A
Lodge of this place had the park
grounds broke up and fenced, with
view of getting trees planted in
the park this spring. =
A couple weeks ago the ladies
took up the matter of getting the
trees, and through the kindness of
Mrs. E. Andrus from up Horse
creek, were fortunate in having
about 40 small native Box Elders
donated for use in the park.
The grounds have again been
broke up this spring and the trees
have been planted by the high
school boys, under the supervision
of Prof. Refer.
The ladies are to be compliment
ed very much for their efforts in
trying to make the Circle Park a.
place of beauty.

U-Boat Toll DWind|eS,, Armed
Ships Getting Best Of Them

London, May 9.-For the first
time since Germany's declaration
of ruthless submarine warfare, the
U-boat problem is clearing. 1t is
admitted that the situation has
changed considerablyfor the better
since last weeks returns were
issued.
The satisfaction at the news
that Germany is failing in her last
effort to crush England is strength
ened by a well founded belief that
every available German submarine
was sent to sea three weeks ago for pur-
pose of making grand coup which would
offset the sting of the wholesale German
defeat at Vimy ridge.
Observers here felt that Germany could
not keep up her sea activity at the height
attained in the last three weeks. 1t is i'm
possible for country to maintain on the
high seas as many craft as Germany did
during the last fortnight.
1t is not this fact alone, however, which
is the reason for a noticeable let-up. With
the passing of each week of the war addi-
tional ships are armed against the submar-
inc attack and it is increasingly difficult
for U-boat to sink merchant ship.
Perhaps the greatest single factor in the
recent U-boat failure is the installment of
a new British device calculated to spread
havoc among submarines. This has taken
considerable time but just now it is hav-
ing the desired effect.

White Store Sold

A. Liver who the past couple

stock of goods to Ole Ormrud, one
of Brockway's enterprising mer-
chants. The postoffice we under

1t is with genuine regret the
many friends of the Liver's see
them leave, but hope some day to
see them return here again.

Sanford Ritchie, Of
Paris, Passes Away

| 1t becomes our sad duty this
week toreporttha Sanford Ritchie
who was reported in last weeks
Banner as being very sick, has
passed away. Full details appear
below as sent us by a member of
the family:
Il have written up several death
notices but have never had the
painful duty to write up one for
our own family.
Sanford Richie will be renem-
bered as the one who was taken
to Circle in February to have some
teeth removed which had some
large assesses on the roots of
them, and later was removed to
the Miles City hospital where he
had them removed by DR.. Rhine
hart and was placed under the care
of Drs. Buskirk and Brown also
Kempstead, an eye, ear, nose and
throat specialist. Later he was
taken to Terry owing to the crowd
ed condition of the hospital at
Miles and the scarcity of nurses.
He was then placed in charge of
DIR. Garst of Terry for medical aid
but of no avail. Later we called a
doctor from Miles City also Andrus
and Shaw from Terry, but no med.
ical aid could save our dear little
brother and son.
Poor little fellow suffered as we
are unable to describe. Gangrene
set in when the liberated teeth
were removed and slowly but
surely worked its deadly way thru
put his entire system. The family
was with the little fellow almost
constantly and all that could be
had and all the good that could be
lccomplishedwas accordingly done.
In spite of his high inwardly
ever of 104 and his pulse lao he
would rally and seem so bright that
'ur hopes would revive and most
# the time he was concious of
very thing and everybody. On {
ast Saturday morning he was l
righter than usual and talked
ute a bit, whereat mother told
i'm he was much better, Eyes ]

here suffering is no more" To- :
vard evening he was quite delir-
'us and had sinking spell. DR.. f
haw was called and the child was /
to the Terry Hospital, !.
taking the third hospital he had +
one through. A nurse from Miles
ity and Shaw worked diligently f
nd faithfully to save his life but t
as too late. The little fellow who :
ad stood his suffering with such z
atience and cast iron constitution, n
lpired Sunday evening at Eleven VII
clock. His bright and CHEEKY re- A
arks and his willingness to help ONi

last request will be carried out,

DR.. w. H. BENSON
so. BUYS X-RAY OUTFIT

DR.. w. H. Benson has recently
installed a fine X-ray machine
which combines every electrical
treatment that is generally used in
the medical profession. The ma
chine is made by the Thomson-Plas-
ter Co., of Leesburg, Va, and is the
finest one in the South at present.
Almost every kind of human ailment
can be treated according to the
latest practices with this machine
and it has several advantages over
earlier machines.
The salesman for the machine
demonstrated its capabilities to the
Journal reporter but we can't be-
gin to tell you what it will do. He
also furnished us with printed
list of things it will do but that
would take up about a column and
a half of your time and Our space
and then you wouldn't know any
more about it. 1t is all in those
medical terms that makes you think
there is something awful the matter
with you when it's just a case of too
much groceries in your storage bat
terry. So we just decided TO let this
go with the fact that the machine
is at DR.. Benson's office and you can
go look it over for yourself.
