There is hardly man left whose
name is on the Record list that the
following can be applied to. How
ever, in occasional instances, some
wise one whose anxiety to be smart
overreaches his desire to he honest,
attempts to beat his newspaper bill
by the use of the excuse that the
publisher mailed it longer than one
year without pay therefor. There
are certain conditions under which the
postal department may investigate to
determine whether or not newspaper
lis bona fide proposition, or to see
whether it is being forced upon the
public in manner similar to the
whiskey circulars common to all. But
the Record is ready to stand any pos
tai Investigations. Our list is al
most perfect. 1t would be absolutely
80 but for the fact that we propose
! TO beat at their own game some Of the
fellows who can pay what they owe
4 but won't. We have in mind one
name in particular that owes US sew

The editor of the Record and his
chief assistant, Mr.. Herman Berth
eau, had a little excitement of their
own last Wednesday night while get
ting the paper out for the week. The
snow- storm had filled everything with
snow. The basement windows were
covered, and the exhaust pipe from the
engine likewise In the rush of get
ting to press under the difficulties pre-
vaiing from the general tie-up, the
hours passed in the basement sent the
feeling rather wobbly about the knees.
Mrs Strcctcr working upstairs, felt
no bad effects Master Herman,
running the folder in the basement,
suddenly toppled over and the timely
appearance of Aug. Schorzman, who
stepped in on his way from home,
may have saved serious consequences.
1t is only natural that we should
dcplorc any accident, whether or not
the result should be serious. Like
wise, We dcplorc that headache. Eut,
on the other hand, we do not exactly
relish having some personal enemy try
to turn such an affair into plan of
vengeance Among others who as
scmbled at the Record Office upon hear
ing of the trouble was Dr. Rollo r.
Hoguc, who it is said proceeded to
spout about the ventilation conditions,
land to offer to sacrifice himself upon
the high altar of the public welfare as
a leader in inducing some inspector to
inspect the basement.
Now as to the ventilnting system. l!
the more or less genial Rollo will put
us wise to any ventilating system that
will protect against any repetition OF
the events, other than that method
used Of hauling away the snow. vel
gladly hear from him. Fact is, We
have to earn II fair-SiZed chunk OF
our own daily bread in that aforemen
toned basement, and we PERSONAL!
don't enjoy headaches nor the possible
T ity Of even showing temporary Sign
, of Kicking the bucket.
And, any way, we think that kollt
, is Just exactly the duck that ought II
be watching for Il chance to star
something with Others. He nigh
even attack his own pigpcn.

FAY GLOWING the recent heavy storm
the streets of Linton have been kept
in very good condition. The down.
town section can boast of sidewalks
which are in most excellent shape.
However, in some parts of the resi-
dencc section, the cement sidewalks
have become joke. In fact, they are
so far below the snow-drifts that one
would no more appreciate from the
looks Of things that such was the
case than would view of the frozen
north determine soil survey of the
same.
Sidewalks are a pretty nice thing
for town. But they need little
elbow-grease applied after storms.

Pollock Pick-Ups.
Progress, December 30.

Mrs. Fred Welker returned from
Bismarck where she had taken her
baby for treatment, Saturday evening.
Mrs, William Pulling died at the
home in this village at midnight,
Wednesday, December 81, 1916, aged
10 years, one month and q days.
Oscar Peterson and Tom Keefer
were in from Dale by automobile Fri
day evening to meet their children
who arrived from Glendale, N. D.,
to spend the holiday vacation at home.
Doc. Warnshuis and Roy Bales had
an interesting time coming home from
Tom Keefers, in the Dale neighbor-
hood, during the snow storm. They
broke the buggy while stalled in
drift and rode horseback to Ebcr Put
mans where they put up for the night.
Mr.. and Mrs G. W. Tracy, accom-
panied by their little daughter, Mari
an, and Miss Mabel Tracy, of Dale,
will depart Saturday morning for an
extended visit to relatives in Pennsyl-
vania, where they have not been for
nearly twenty-five years. Mr.. and
Mrs. Tracy have certainly earned and
are entitled to this vacation and we
hope their trip will be one continued
round of pleasure.
Owing to the delay of the train
from the east last Saturday the Pol
lock Wishck train did not reach here
until 2:30 a m. Sunday Some Is
or Is passengers from the Linton
branch Of the Milwaukee enjoyed ca
a wait at Barbara junction from p.
m. Saturday and can testify to the
convenience and accommodations at
that station. They would undoubted-
ly be glad to appear before the Board
of Railway Commissioners and give
their views on the matter.

he Will never pay the bill, although
he has never told US TO stop the paper
nor offered to pay back subscription.
In due time he'll have n chance to test
out his fund OF wisdom. We print
herewith clipping from the Hazen
Star. 1t is well worth reading, as
it sets right any mistaken notion that
some might have on the subject. 1t
is as follows:
A good many newspaper subscrb-
crs nave the erroneous impression that
they cannot be forced to pay for the
paper if their time has run over more
than one year after due. However,
the courts in many states have ruled
that subscription to II newspaper is
as much II commodity as groceries or
dry goods and therefore collcctible.
One paper recently sued number of
it's delinquent subscribers and in every
case was given judgment for the sub
scription and for the costs of the
suit Similar results have been re-
peatedly recorded where publishers
sue for subscriptions. A subscrip-
ton to Il newspaper is valid debt
and should be more universally recog
ni>cd as such No publisher likes &c
be forced to sue to collect such ac-
counts, and the Star does not con.
template any such drastic action as
outlined above. Why II publisher
should grant longer credit than any
other business man is difficult for us
to understand

tanned last night by members of the IN

battle front motion pictures. Canadian
and British troops on the Hindenburg

pictures were briefly explained by Francis

by the courtesy of that institution.
Those in the audience were actually
taken to the front line trenches. so vivid
were the scenes depicted. They saw the
light and heavy artillery of the English
expeditionary force in action, they wit
messed a ''close up of the demolition Of

The tremendous work being carried on
in mobilizing the industrial resources of
Great Britain was emphasized on the
screen and one saw the troops. relieved
from their strenuous life in the trenches,
march back behind the lines and take up
the more diverting side of warfare. Each
new scene was greeted with a new burst
Of applause.

COLONIAL BEACH HIT.
War Leaves No Steamers for Excur-
sions to the Resort.

Washington property owners at Co
lonial Beach are aroused over the an
nouncement that the entrance of the
big steamer st. Johns into the naval
service for the war in all probability
means there will be no excursions to
the resort this summer.
The managers of the Colonial Beach
Company have been endeavoring to
obtain another steamer, but as steam
boats are in demand they have not yet
succeeded in getting one: While there
probably will be no daily excursions
to the resort. the steamers of the river
lines will make trips to the resort this
summer six days each week. but the
trip will be a long one. as far as time
is concerned, as the boats do freight
and passenger business to river land
ings this side of Colonial Beach. 1t is
also possible to go to the beach by
way of the Popes creek branch of the
Pennsylvania railroad to Popes creek,
and then by ferry to the beach. 1t is
stated that one Washington owner of
Colonial Beach property is offering 1t
for sale for less than half he valued 1t
at last summer.
