Billings, Mont, Grasshopper glacier,
q great ice field, in the crystal depths
Of which myriads Of locusts have been
imprisoned for more than . genera
ton, is slowly melting. and the stencil
Of the decaying grasshoppers is well
nigh unbearable, according to Fred
Inabnit, clerk Of the district court
at Darlington, who has just returned
from . vacation trip spent in the
mountains about Rosebud lakes, .
chain Of waterways so miles south Of
Billings.
Grasshopper glacier covers an area
two miles long and about threequar-
ters Of . mile in width. Old-timers
thereabouts say that it was in 1876
that the great deposits Of locusts on
the glacier occurred. Swxrms Of grass
hoppers, chilled as thy few over the
great ice field, alighted, only to be-
come Undecided in the structure rs
layer upon layer Of ice formed with
each succeeding day.
Until the intense heat Of the last
two months began to melt the glacier,
thus muddying it's topmost surface,
5prasshoppers embedded Ter 4 distance
Of thirty or forty feet in the ice were
plainly visible from the surface, the
whole resembling gigantic show

Donnybrook- Aurelia School Suuabble

DOnnybrOOk- Aurelia School Suuabble
Donnybrook Courier: A large DEL
egation Of Donnybrook people went to
Minot Monday to be present at the
meeting of the county commissioners
and the superintendent Of schools,
held for the purpose Of deciding the
question of establishing special dis
trict for Aurelia. Aurelia likewise
was represented by large delegation.
The Aurelia people had petitioned
to be set off together with two rows
Of sections in the southern part Of
Carbonate township.
The decision Of the board was unan-
imous against the division of the Don
tnybrook school district which was
recently made consolidated school
by special election.
This matter has been the cause of
considerable high feeling between the
parties interested on either side of the
question. 1t seems that school nat
tiers are always hard to settle satisfac-
torily to everybody. The arrangement
existing in this district for several
years past, with one school at Donnv-
brook and one at Aurelia, would seem
to be as fair proposition as any
thing that could be obtained, and Ii
seems rather unfortunate than any
thing was ever started to disturb the
arrangement.

SEES BIG CHANGE
Prominent Police Official Says I'm.
pr0vement is Due to TaRlac. :.

Nearly everybody in Kansas City
either knows or has heard Of Captain
]. ]. Ennis, who lives At 80 Jackson
avenue, Kansas City, Missouri. Cap
tain Ennis has been . member of the
Kansas City police force for thirty
years and is not only one Of the Oldest
in point of service, but one of the most
popular officers in the department.
In recent statement regarding the
benefits his son, Wilfred, has derived
from the use of Tanlac, Captain En-
mis- said:
"The change l have seen take place
in my sons health during the past
few weeks certainly speaks well for
Tanlac. Wilfred served with Company
A, 18th Engineers, in France for near
~ two years and on returning was suf-
fering from rheumatism and stomach
trouble and was in very badly rn
down condition. He tells me he had
been suffering from aching joints in
his shoulders, arms and legs for al
most year. He had no appetite and
his stomach was so weak and upset
that he could not retain much of any
thing he would eat. He complained of
headache most Of the time, often had
dizzy spells, and was so weak he could
just barely drag around
II had been reading so many state
ments from Kansas City people about
Tanlac that decided there must be
something to it, and after inquiring
about it of some parties, whom have
known for years, at the drug store.
bought bottle for Wilfred. Well. he
had not finished the first bottle until
his appetite was better and the pains
in his knees and shoulders were not
SO bad. He has taken three bottles 40
to this time and can eat and digest
anything he wants. He was very
nervous and restless before taking
Tanlac and could not sleep much, but
now he sleeps eight to nine hours
every night. He now has a good DO
sltion as yard clerk for the Kansas
City Terminal Railway and is able to
walk around and do his work with
ease, as the rheumatic pains have left
him entirely. He has recommended
Tanlac to several of his friends who
have used it with fine results. I con-
slider Tanlac the best medicine out for
such troubles and will gladly verify
this statement for anyone who may
call to see me or write me-"

PEACE CONGRESS-

The first session of the peace congress couvcncs tomorrow. From that day until the closing of the congress the eyes of the whole world will be focused upon NcrSail- les The greatest questions that have ever confronted the people of the world will be brought up at this gathering and the future peace and happiness of the universe hinges on the decisions made by the states men gathered there.
 Each nation among the Allies iS repre- scutcd around the peace table according to its importance as a nation and all will have votes i'm the final settlement of questions that might arise.
 That the congress will last long time mo one who is aware of the many matters that are Co bc considered can doubt,and that there will be some friction also there IS little doubt. It is where there will be fric- tiou that it is expected the American peace commissioners will use their good graccS to smooth things over. as the American nations ar, the only ones at the conference who have uo questions of indemnity or ac- ousitious of lost territory to consider. Be inc disiutcrcstcd in a financial or territorial wav. America can show the other nations of the world that war can be wogcd for an ideal and thus shame them from any ten dcncy they might have to try to acquire spells of war from weaker nations.
 There is only one thing that all nations seem to be agreed upon and that is that Germany must pay, and pay to the very limit of her resources for the crimes she has committed against civilization. There is but little doubt but when the peace com missioucrs gt through footing up the bill against Germany for her destruction of Belgium. Northern France and other terri tory occupied by her troops, the bill will br staggering one, and if 1t k paid will be constant reminder to the German pco- plc of their experiment in irving to intro ducc their "kultm" to the rest of the world.

\ DEBIT TO HEROES

The Fifth Liberty Loan will be known as the Victory Loan.
 Victory is mot merely a matter of jubil- atim. accepting surrender of beaten foe and dropping the gun to take up the blow share in the tmrow where it stood when the call Co arms came.
 The Victory Loan is one of the many great obligations that come to the victors. President Woodrow Wilson and the mem bcrs of the American peace delegation are now in France looking after the world ob- legations. Our part now is to prepare to pay in a small measure the debt we owe our khaki and blue clad champions
 \ large part of the money to be raised in the Victory Loan campaign next April will be used for the rehabilitation of our wounded men. The government will do it's utmost to restore every wounded American soldier and sailor to health and Self-Sup- porting activity.
 When the wounded man has been given complete medical and surgical treatment he will be considered by the Federal Board for Vocational Education If his disahil- ity prevents return to work he left at the call of the government wide choice of oc- cupation is open to him.
 If the injured man needs an artificial limb or appliance of any sort the govern mcut will provide it. Until his special treatment OF training ends he will receive regular compensation and the family will receive the allotments. The war risk in- smmcc will be paid until the end of the vocational training if the course is elected without necessity, but in this ease the al- lomcuts will not be paid the family.
 Instead of finding dependent cripples and bcggars made SD by am mappreciative country. they will be highly trained heroes whose sacrifices will not be tanished by lack of gratitude.
 If you are worth victory prepare now to buy Victory Bonds.
