HAS SEPARATE POWER PLANT
Decidedly Novel Arrangement of Ship
Recently Devised by an In
genous Frenchman.

As odd a ship as one Is likely to
meet at sea is described as the in
vention Of a French maritime expert
seeking a means for lowering the cost
of transporting cargoes. Hitherto a
ship and the power plant that makes
it move have been regarded as one and
inseparable, and while the cargo is be-
ing taken on or discharged, the power
equipment necessarily lies idle. And
so this ingenious Frenchman, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine. has in
vented a new kind of vessel In which
the power plant IS detachable, and hay
ing temporarily finished It's work for
one cargo can then busy Itself with an
other. AS this new ship is pnt to-
aetheT, the cargo-carrylng section
naturally much the larger part of It.
ends with V-shaped indentation,
much like the indentatlon which the
grocer makes in a new cheese when
he cuts a pound for his customer, and
the bow of the section that carries
the power plant fits into this space
as neatly as the customers purchase,
providing the grocer has a good eye
for a pound, would fit back into the
cheese.

LIFE.

It's the way that you put up the fight.
1t isn't the path that you 60, lads,
AS long as you travel it right
1t isn't the goal at the top, boys
That counts when the journey is
through;
But the fellows you've helped on tho
road lads,
That tell in the balance for you.
1t isn't the pace that you go. lads,
It's the way the fellow who climbs, bit
by bit,
Who plods when the others are first, lads,
Yet stays when the others have quit.
It isn't the smile Of the victor,
That weaves golden stars for his crown,
But the twisted old grin that he gives
lads,
The fellow who smiles when he's down.
1t isn't defeat that will count, lads,
Or the things that we gain, you and |;
But the way that you shoulder your fight,
lads,
And lived when you wanted to die.
1t isn't the things that we do, lads
If we win, or we stumble or fail,
But the heart that we've brought all the
way, lads,
That will count at the end Of the trail.

POPLAR HAS A CHANCE
TO GET CHAMPIONSHIP
Winner in Northern District Meet Now
in Line For State HOnors at
BOzeman.

/ AS result of the Poplar high school
taking the honors at the northern dis
trict basketball tournament held at
Wolf Point last Friday and Saturday,
they have been picked as favorites at
the approaching state meet in Boze-
man by large number of followers
of the game in this part of the state.
Up to the time of the tournament,
Poplar had won all IL of it's Montana
games and lost two contests during
the season to Dakota team. Pop
lar possesses a well balanced five,
with good scoring forwards and CEN
ter, strong guards and some strong
teamwork which has decided many a
tough battle for them.
The Glasgow team beat Culbertson
on Friday and Malta on Saturday. This
placed them against the Poplar team
in the finals. The first half of the
game with Poplar ended with a score
of 10 to 8 in the latter's favor. In
the second half, Poplar took the lead
from the start and finished with the
big end of a 32 to ID score, deciding
for the season of 1920 the champion
ship of the northern district.
The standing of the teams at the
close of the tournament was:
Poplar, first; Glasgow, second;
Havre, third; Wolf Point, fourth, and
Chinook, Malta and Culbertson in the
order named. The defeat of Havre
by Malta was said to be a fluke, and
according to the opinion of some of
the officials, the former would have
given the Glasgow team a merry chase
for second place.
Ralph Baer and Warren Redfield of
Glasgow, Picketts and Mitchell of Pop
lar and Young of Wolf Point made the
district all-star team with a number
of others from the various teams shin
ing as lesser lights but spoken of ia
vorably.
Picketts of Poplar is conceded the
most sensational and brilliant player
in northern Montana and ranks we'll
with the leading point getters of the
state for the number of scores counted
against opponents.
