HOLDS NIGHT SESSION:
TO WIND UP WORK

Helena. Mont, Aug. a. Both
houses of the Montana assembly went
into night session tonight in an effort
to conclude their business. Prospects
were that adjournment would not
come until far in the morning.
The house this morning passed a
bill creating two new justices of the
supreme court and naming Albert P.
Stark of Livington and George Y. Pat
ton of Bozeman for the positions. 1t
also passed a senate bill for creation
of an administrative board on state
affairs. as recommended by the eff
ficiency commission and a bill pro-
viding for classification of counties.
Favorable reports on a senate bill re-
pealing the presidential primary and
a senate bill repeating the special
election on primary amendments were
adopted. This definitely settles it
that no special election on the pri-
mary will be held. 1t was set for Sep
TENDER 2.
The senate killed a house bill sus-
PENDING collection of taxes from
drouth victims, after an acrid debate.
The senate then took up drouth re-
lief measures.
The senat passed a resolution ask
ing recognition of the Irish republic.

A Real Hero

Our idea of 1919 peacetme hero is Rudolph Brenck of
New Britain Conn., who doubled his family of eight children
by marrying Mrs Annie Newfeld mother of another eight
children
Thus starting their matrimonial venture with 16
children in the family.
In these days of high living costs the undertaking
ing clothing educating eight children is mans sized job
Doubling the task is achievement worthy of the super
man.
Also, while distributing medals to Mr.. Brenck let
hand few to the Mrs. Brenck, who will sew. mend
darn and do thousand and things for 16 instead of
eight.
Surely peace has her heroes-and herones!

ARMISTICE DAY
BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE

Armistce Day! when new sun rose
And the hate and the horror reached a close.
But here is the slave of a crawling crutch,
So made by the shrapnels devilish whim,
And our ribbons and trinkets don't mean much
To man torn limb from limb
Armistice Day! and peace proclaimed,
But how is it peace to the halt and MANNED?
Armistice Day, when the curtain dropped
On the tragic field and the strife was stopped.
But there are no fields, hills, nor skies
For him whom the monday lends no light,
For the demon of gas ate out his eyes
And his day is endless night.
Armistice Day, with the war behind!
But how is it ended for one made blind?
Armstice Day! and the joy-bes ring
And the children of earth leap up and sing
But one, who is here, is yet away
And a maggot is at his festered BRAIN
He whmpers and whnes at his painful play
And he gigges at sores and pain.
Armstice Day, and the world is glad
But how is it happy for one made mad?
Armstice Day! and the wild world cheers
And laughs and forgets its foolish fears
But the wooden crosses stand in hordes
And stretch white arms in an endless prayer
For they who have paid for the broken swords
Hold eternal armistice there
Armistice Day! and petty pride
And the war is over--for those who died.
