offers the services and institutions of
the Army to the social needs of every
rural community in the state as well
as to the bigger cities.
Rally to Support.
r. C. Ellis, campaign manager for
Shawnee county. today asserted that
the business men of the city, the lead
ing men in the rural districts, and
the prominent women of the city alike
have rallied to the support of the army
in its appeal for finances. He quoted
from statements made by many can
vass captains who asserted that 1.-The
Salvation Army in its drive for funds
can count on US to lend our best ef-
forts in obtaining an over-the-top sub
scription to the home service fund"
Ellis declared the records of the
Salvation Army show that Salvation
Army officers must raise the amount
of their own salaries in collections
taken at their street and indoor meet
ings He declared that every dollar
given the army for relief work is ex-
pended in relief work, and asserted
that it is administered on a budget bass
just as the funds of any big business
Corporation are handled.
All Salvation Army solicitors have
been withdrawn from the streets ev-
erywhere, and the army is totally de-
pendent on the funds raised in the
home service campaign for carrying
out its relief and institutional work
next year.

general party given some time last
year an impromptu dance was held,
presumably with the permission of Su-
perintendent Stout, who was faced at
the party with a request for such per-
mission.

by the ministers. H. w. Bomgardner,
president of the board of education,
said he knew of no dances that were
held under the auspices of the high
school. He said dances were given by
clubs and different sets among the
students. but said that this was done
at Methodist colleges. Bomgardner
could not say what attitude, the board
would take regarding the criticism of
the ministers or whether the board as
a whole would approve of dancing at
the high school.

PARAGRAPHS IN
SENATOR DIXON'S SPEECH

We have just witnessed the strange
phenomenon of an alien political or
ganization, without legal entity, a hy-
BRIT offshoot of the old Socialist party
in Montana, completely GUST from it's
birthright and its rightful place on the
ballot the historic Democratic party
in this state.
To add insult to injury, last week
they met in secret conclave in Great
Falls and issued an official declaration
that they are not Democrats and have
neither lot nor part with the political
parry under whose flag they have set
sail.
The Republican organization and the
Republican tickets in Montana are the
only remaining line Of defense against
the assault that they (the Socialists)
are now marshalling their forces to
deliver in November.
