SANTA CLAUS VISITED
THE FAIR STORE CHRISTMAS

On Christmas morning the Far
Store on First Avenue South was the
scene of a very unique holiday event,
when Old Chris kringle, made an
informal visit to that place of business
and played host to the kiddies of Glas-
gov.
The management had placed two
large Christmas trees in front of their
place of business, and the genial old
gentleman, who arrived promptly at
nine o'clock distributed presents to
each of the children present.
More than 200 children were present
and after the distribution of the pack
ages, these were gathered about Old
Santa and his sled, together with the
management Of the store, and Mana
ger lkeda of the Glasgow Photo
Studio took a couple of group photos.
The affair was handled in a most
orderly manner, and Old Santa be-
fore departing expressed appreciation
OF the able manner in which the Fair
Store manager had planned and ar
ried out the little event.

MR.. HARDING TRUE TO PROMISE

Warren Gamaliel Harding proved
during his presidential campaign that
he was a good talker. He used
straightforward language. He talked
in simple words and phrases and his
audiences heard and understood and
liked it.
This, of course was pleasing. but it
was not out of the ordinary so far
as presidential campaigns are con
cerned. There have been a plenty of
plain takers in the nation, and a good
many of them have found their way
into public office. A much more valu-
able and far rarer quality in states
men is the quality of listening we'll
and Mr.. Harding possesses this noble
faculty.
It is not out of the ordinary for candi-
dates for office to promise to call in
the best minds of the nation to their
aid; yet but few of them have been
known'to fulfil that pledge after that
they have been elected. Mr.. Harding,
however. having made that promise,
is fulfilling it. He is calling in the
leaders of the nations thought. one at
a time, from Elihu Root to William
Jennings Bryan, and there is no deny
ING the fact that in so doing he has
pleased the nation exceedingly.
To do Mr.. Harding justice, it must
be conceded by the most radical OPP
posing political forces that this is not

A SANE THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

We have come to the New Year;
the time of retrospection; when labors
and events of the past are summed up
and we strike a balance between pro-
gress and retrogression. During the
year that has gone and the years that
previously past, as we now realize, we
have all wasted some money, which is,
generally speaking, comparatively I'M
important, and we have wasted time
which really is important, for time
is precious beyond all else-more val
liable than jewels, of more account
than fine raiment or houses of brick
and stone, because it is all we have
in which to build and fashion that in
ner shrine of character which every
man should hope to possess; and to
buttress it with those qualities of reso-
luton, information, intelligent applica-
ton, good health and sound cleanness
of mind, without which all material
possessions are as a house builded
upon the sands, which the winds of
circumstance may shift from beneath
its foundation and cause its downfall.
We have wasted time-with which our
house, be it great or small, may be an
chored upon a rock which reaches
down to the foundations of truth itself
so that no tempest of fury a over
turn, and no tidal wave Of circum-
stance can destroy it.
The "a or woman whose life is
built upon the broad and solid quail
ties which we're the same in be begin
ming, never have changed and never
shall vary, even SO much as the breadth
of the strand of a spiders web, has
him all the qualities which
bring security, %wellbeing and happi-
He is wealthy though he may
not be rich, for he is in tune with ele-
mental forces which other and grosser
sensibilities cannot detect. His is the
power of spirit and characteristic
only power which finally controls other
elements.

FARM BUREAU HEADS
PLAN PROGRAM OF LAWS
President Howard Makes Public Some
of Suggestions Framed by the
National Association.

Chicago, Dec. 3O.-A program of
legislation designed to provide for
agricultural credits was announced
today by J.. R. Howard, presidant of
the American Farm Bureau Fedora
ion, upon his return from Washington,
where the proposal was placed before
members of congress. Assurance that
legislation as outlined would be incor-
porated in bills to be drafted immed-
lately was given him by committee
members, MI. Howard said.
The federation's proposed relief
measures were:
"Regu1atory power over farmers CO.
operative marketing association should
be in the hands of the United States
department Of agriculture rather than
the federal trade commission.
"The farmers cooperative market
ing movement must not be hindered
by the provisions of the Sherman anti
trust law.
"The federal reserve act should be
amended so as to provide preferential
rates for loans for productive pur-
poses.
"The warehousing act should be eX-
tended to serve the needs of both indi-
viduals and cooperative associations.
"The federal land bank system
should be extended to provide farm
ers with personal credit"

MALTA PAPERS CONSOLIDATE

With it's last issue, the Malta Enter
prise announced the discontinued pub
LEGATION of the second paper in that
field, known as the Malta Call. Editor
Johnson of the Enterprise has taken
over the business, legality and sub
scription list of the Call, and will
henceforth publish the only newspaper
to be printed in the Phillips county
seat.
The Flint Syndicate, through its
president, Paul Flint of Great Falls,
after six years of activity in the Malta
field, announced their intention of
quitting the field. The machinery and
equipment df the plant r being
moved to Great Falls: and i%ncidently
it is rumored that the Flint Boys anti
cipate launching out into the publ
cation of a daily newspaper in the Ell
ectric City.
Editor Johnson of the Enterprise
states:
malta is strictly a one paper town
and especially so since the crop con-
ditions for the past three years has
been so Door and we expect to give
the people of Phillips county a real
live country newspaper, but to do
this we need the help of the entire
county and would very much appre-
ciate the assistance of all when it
comes to news
The Editor of the Enterprise is one
of the pioneers of Northern Montana
newspaperdom, and he merits a con
tinuation of success.

Judge C. E. Conner of Plentywood,
who has been presiding this week in
Judge Halls court in the case of DR..
Handley versus the Great Northern
