Post met at the Legion club rooms
Tuesday evening to consider matters
of vital interest to the future of the
Post. Acting Adjutant Hendrickson
presided. An excellent spirit of in
terest was manifested by the boys
present and it is believed that the
Post will soon be established with
permanent plans and purposes.
It was decided to dispense with
the election of commander and an
adjutant until the regular election
in November One of the immediate
needs Of the Post is more funds to
maintain the club room and the sit
uation was met by volunteer loans
by several Of the members present.
The boys all expressed themselves
as strong for keeping up the club
room and feel that it is one of the
essentials to the life and growth Of

FIRE PREVENTION
WORK IMPORTANT
CHIEF c. L. SMITH ORGANIZING
CITY-CITIZENS ASKED
TO COOPERATE

Saturday, October 9, is Fire Pre-
vention Day the country over. Exc
cutives everywhere proclaim it as a
day for special attention to all those
things that tend to prevent fires and
lessen fire risk. Mayor Smith has is
sued a proclamation to people Of this
city calling on them for co-opera-
ton that will bring valuable results
from the day.
Fire Chief Smith is the man be-
hind the local movement and his
faithful, conscientious work is bound
to have effect. Through the state,
text books on safeguarding the home
against fire, for use in the schools
have been procured and a copy will
be placed in the hands of each teach
er The books teach through short,
simple, practical lessons the various
ways to be careful about fire.
Insurance Economy
Next week it is expected that citi-
zens will devote themselves to the
work of cleaning up trash, and max
ing their buildings and premises
more safe against fire danger On
fire prevention day there will be
special demonstration by the fire de-
partment and general inspection of
conditions. At some future date an
official, representing the national
board of fire underwriters will visit
the city and make an inspection that
will have a direct bearing on insur-
ance rates for this town.
If we can show good conditions of
safety, that together with the eff
fcient fire department we have, will
probably result in lessening of the
insurance rates that will mean in the
aggregate large amount of money
saved and kept at home. On the
other hand, if we are careless and
fail to keep our premises in condi-
tion ,and refuse to observe the SIM
pie, commonsense prevention meas
ures that are recommended, we may
suffer a raise in rates that will mean
added expense to all of us and money
virtually thrown away, to say moth
ing of the extra number of fires sure
to occur and cause heavy losses to
individuals.
Let us all make it point to de-
vote next week to getting rid of the
fire hazards Of all kinds, in and about
our homes and places of business and
thus not only play the part of good
citizens but keep off the Fire Depart
nent's Black List.

VISIT FROM SECOND
DIST. CONGRESSMAN
HON. CARL RIDDICk MISSES A
CHANCE TO MAKE CAM
PAIGN TALK-NO HALL

In accordance with an announce
ment made last week Congressman
Carl w. Riddick, representing thi:
district, visited Wolf Point last even
ing with the intention of making {
campaign address. Upon his arriva
on No. at 1880, he found that nc
arrangements had been made for E
hall in which to speak The meeting
had been advertised by posters fol
eight o'clock, but no place for the
meeting was mentioned, and through
some misunderstanding among the
republicans, no place had been en-
gagged.
The Congressman had to take No
in order to fill other speaking ap-
pointments and spent the time be-
tween trains in the lobby of the
Sherman Landlord Moore offered
the use of the sample room, but there
were so few present that no attempt
was made to hold formal meeting.
If arrangements had been made the
Congressman would have had good
audience, as many inquiries were
made during the afternoon and even
ing as to where the meeting was to
be.
Many people, laboring men, wo-
men, democrats and others, regard
less Of party were ready to listen to
the speech and hear what the Lewis
town man had to say, and went from
place to place looking for the meet
ing.
In the hotel lobby Mr.. Riddick
talked entertainingly to small group
of listeners concerning his experien-
ces at the capitol during his first term
and what he has been doing to serve
the interests of his constituency.
In this campaign Mr.. Riddick is
running as regular Republican with
the Republican organization back of
him. Two years ago many of those
who opposed him claimed that he was
not so very regular and was bidding
for the support of the Nonpartisan
League, but none of those who listen
ed to his conversation last evening
would accuse him of leaning toward
the League in this campaign. In 1918
he was elected over Harry Mitchell,
of Great Falls, the Democratic nomi-
nee. This year his opponent is M.
McCusker, of this city who is the
nominee on the Democratic ticket
and has the endorsement of the Mon
tana Labor League and the Nonpar-
tisan League. The opinion is freely
expressed that Mr.. McCusker is prac-
tically certain of election.

Whereas, the losses by fire in this
state are excessive, and
Whereas, These losses are largely
preventable and should be greatly
reduced, and
Whereas, the laws of the State of
Montana provide penalties for care
lessness and failure to remedy dam
gerous conditions, and
Whereas, this carelessness is a
constant source of loss, not only to
the careless, but also to their neigh
bors, and to the people at large, be-
cause the sum of the fire losses must
be collected from the people by the
insurance companies,
Nevertheless and in spite of this,
certain parties in every locality per-
sist in disregarding common preven-
tion measures, assuming for them
selves certain privileges and rights
to disregard the laws which they
would be first to condemn in others,
and delight in defying the officials,
so it has seemed advisable to the au
thorities throughout the State to
designate certain time. and date for
reminding each and every person
that they must do their share, that
they cannot delegate their duty to
someone else and that they are per-
sonally responsible for the preven
tion of fire on their own premises,
and liable for endangering their
neighbor:
