FORCED What He Needed.

From the Republican, Mt. Giliad,
Ohio: The editor had an interest
ing experience some time ago, when
q young gentleman came to this of
fee and asked for a copy of the
Morrow County Republican. He scru-
tinized il carefully when copy was
handed him, and then said: NOW
I know!" what ID 1t you are look
ing for" we inquired my wife
sent me after a bottle OF Chamber
Iain's Cough Remedy, and l forgot
the name. went to several stores
and the clerks named over every
thing in the line on the shelf except
'Chamberlain's'. I'll try it again,
and I'll never go home without
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy" The
Republican would suggest to the pro-
prietors OF stores, that they post
their clerks, and never let them sub
gtitute. Customers lose faith in
stores where substituting is per-
mitted, to say nothing OF. the injus-
tice to makers of good goods and the
disappointment of customers.

Only One Death in Glasgow and No
New Cases Reported During
the Past Week.

Although there were seven deaths in
and around Hinsdale the early part of
the week, the influenza situation in
that town is fast improving the past
few days and DR.. Cockrell, the Hins-
dale physician, reports that there are
no more serious cases and that everv
one is getting we'll.
In the rest of the county conditions
are better than they have been for the
past two months. In Glasgow the hos
pitals are nearly empty and the same
is true of the other towns. DR.. Simp-
kins reports that there are a number
OF people in the county who are still
i'll but none Of them are to his know
ledge serious.
If things continue as they are for a
few days it is probable that every
thing will be opened up very soon.
The only death at Glasgow the past
week was Mrs. Andrew Backbaugh of
Wolf Point, who died at the General
hospital the latter part of the week.
The deceased was the wife of a rail-
road man and is survived by her hus-
band and two children. The body was
shipped to Berthold, N. D., for burial.
The influenza victims at Hinsdale
are reported briefly below:

WV AOS AOACs
My Dear Tess:
It's bright, sunny day-the first
we have had since we came here, and
it certainly is a great treat. This
morning, for a wonder, we don't have
to work so will take time for a visit
with you.
The German peace proposals are
on. l suppose you will see the presi-
dents answer in the papers. We can
hear it all night; and all morning it
has sounded like innumerable heavy
wagons crossing wooden bridge. Once
in while one hits a loose plank
that's 16-inch gun-but it's abso-
lutely constant and our windows rat
tie all the time.
One of the wounded men l was
talking with told me he hated to go
home it would be so hard on his poor
old mother. Of course l asked why.
and he said she would have to sit be-
side his bed and hammer on the dish
pan so he could go to sleep.
He had been in the trenches 81
days.
Yesterday saw my most wonderful
sight yet. We were working and
some one called US to come out and
look. The air was simply full of air
planes, all going towards the front.

TWO IMPORTANT BILLS
UP BEFORE The HOUSE
One Year Homestead Act and Matter
Regarding Extension of Final
Payment Soon to be Decided

The passing of the Myers bill in
the senate to extend the time allowed
Fort Peck settlers to make final pay
ment for their land leaves the matter
now up to the house of representatives
in congress.
The bill is one of great Importance
as it effects thousands of settlers on
the Ft. Peck reservation. The past
two years the settlers who have come
to this large reserve to locate a home
and settle tave had the misfortune
to experience two consecutive crop
failures, thus putting burden of ex-
pense on their shoulders.
The local Chamber of Commerce and
Agriculture, as we'll as many promi-
nent individuals, have worked to Sc
cure the passage of this bill and let
ters were sent this week from the
Commercial club to Hon. John M.
Evans and to Jeanette Rankin urg-
ing their support and cooperation in
securing an early passage of the bill
in the house.
This matter is of interest to every
body, farmers and business men, and
every effort used in getting the bill
made law will greatly aid the set
tiers.
Another important bill has passed
the senate and is now before the house.
That is the Myers "One Year Home
stead Bill" Indications now point that
this will be made law. Lieutenant
Governor Mcdowell of Montana is now
at Washington using every influence
to secure the early passage of this
bill.
Both bills will greatly benefit Mon
tana, and people are urged to do all
they can to help secure their passage
by writing to Miss Rankin and Con-
gressman Evans regarding them.

VACCINATION SUCCESS
IN HlNSDALE SCHOOLS
Principal Writes County Health Off
Ger That SerObacterin Produces
Perfect Immunity.

DR.. J. C. Simpkins, county health
officer, is in receipt of a letter from
Fred R. Platt, principal of the Hins-
dale schools, giving very encouraging
reports of the condition in the Hins-
dale schools. The letter in it's entirety
is published below:
Dear DR.. Simpkins: We are at
present running the high school and
the seventh and eighth grades under
the vaccination arrangement made
with you. We vaccinated 30 of the
older children with the serobacterin
and it is producing perfect immunity
where pupils were given the entire
four injections. In some cases where
children had been exposed before we
began the serum treatments, they
came down Immediately before treat
ments were completed. We wired the
Milford company regarding this fact
and they replied that this was to be
expected if the children had been ex-
posed before treatments began or were
exposed after treatments began, but
before immunity was established. The
fourth dose seems to be the immuniz-
ing dose in most cases judging by our
experience here.
One question want to ask you:
Should we permit pupils who have had
the influenza recently to enter school
without vaccination? DR.. Cockrell
does not advise vaccinating those who
have already had the disease-says
they are immune already. l notice in
Havre where they are running the
school on such vaccination order as
we are using here, that they require
either vaccination certificate or a
certificate from the doctor stating that
they are immune by reason of having
had the disease. We shall adopt that
policy here unless l heard from you
to the contrary.
Very respectfully yours,
FRED R. PLATT,
Principal of Hinsdale Schools.

FRITZ NYQUISr GIVES
LIFE FOR LIBERTY
Name of Youngest Brother of Peter
and Alg0t Nyjuist Appeared on
Wednesdays Casualty List

Wednesdays casualty list contained
the name of Fritz Nyquist. It is stat
ed that word was received a few days
ago by Peter Nyquist and his brother
Algot, who live northeast of this city,
that their youngest brother Fritz was
killed in France during the fighting
of October 5th. The word came first,
officially, to the father who lives
with two other sons at or near Froid
in Sheridan county.
Mr. Peter Nyquist expects to go to
Froid this week to confer with his
father and brothers regarding future
plans, as the son that was killed has
up to the time of his enlistment been
the companion and helper of his faith
er for some years.
Fritz Nyquist was about % or "a
years old at the time he gave up his
life in his country's service.

FEDERAL AID AGAIN
FOR SPRING WHEAT

Great Falls, Dec. 12.-All applica-
tions for federal seed grain loans on
Federal Seed Grain Loan office at
Great Falls, Montana, not later than
spring wheat for 1919 must be in the
February l, 1919. In order that the
farmers may know we'll in advance
of the seeding season whether or not
they are to obtain aid from this source
and that the work of handling the
applications may not be extended in
definitely, this early announcement Of
a closing date seems advisable. Farm
ers, bankers and county agents are
urged to act promptly so that all ap-
plcations may be completed within
the specified time and rush at the
last moment avoided.

OUR PROBLEM

Next to getting up speed in prepar-
alton for the winning of the world war
the slowing down of the tremendous
war machine comes next in import
ance. We are going at real pace
yet, but our foot is on the brakes
and it is necessary to take every pre-
caution so that we will not encounter
any obstacles that we have not had
time to think of during the rush of the
last eighteen months.
It is our boys that have won the
war and they are being discharged
daily, and are beginning to return
home. 1t is up to our community to do
their part in seeing that every one
of these boys are provided for. 1t is
only through organization that the
greatest results are obtained. The
Glasgow Chamber of Commerce is
ready to meet the situation and help
the boys get reinstated in civilian life.

Many counted them but no two agreed

l went to headquarters the other
day. The little village is certainly
having the boom of its 1000 years
existence. Imagine a sleepy little
town about the size of Nashua with
two traffic cops on each corner put
ting 42nd Street and Broadway, N.
NJ, to shame for traffic. had to wait
several minutes before could dodge
across the street. The transport of
one of our most famous divisions was
going to the front, and it was some
transport, seemingly all the motor
trucks and mules i'm the world were
in that outfit. While l waited big
Claxon roared, the cops wildly waved
their clubs. The motors and wagons
pulled to one side and big drab car
roared by in a fog of dust. l caught
glimpse of a red, white and blue
shield on the back of the car with
four stars on it. You know there is
only one American who has the right
to wear the four stars and even the
Boche are getting out of his way these
days, so you can't blame the rest of
US for lodging.
We are working steadily, this be-
ing our first off shift, but we are on
all night and we will begin to receive
this afternoon, so don't look for any
rest.
Charlie says he has just discovered
the greatest thing in the world. That
is to go to bed and sleep like the dead
for ten hours straight. He says in
the past he has had other ideas, but
they are all erroneous, and l am in
clined to agree with him.
Outside of going home, guess that
is the greatest.
There are four Hun prisoners out
side the window saving wood. One
is holding the end of stick, so it
won't fall. One is sitting on it to
steady it, and one on each end of the
buck saw. The cruel way they treat
the prisoners here is a scandal, and a
disgrace-working them to death like
that, and they only get three feeds of
real American grub a day at that.
