CLUB WOMEN ASK
STUDY OF BIBLE
PASS FORMAL RESOLUTIONS DE.
HANDING USE OF HOLY WRIT
IN THE SCHOOLS
Denominational Feeling in Various
Communities Makes Question .
Delicate One; HarlowtOn Met Stu.
alton by Calling Conference of An
Local Ministers.

Federated Club women in their
district meetings all over the state,
are demanding through formal reso-
lutiOns, the study of the Bible in the
public schools. Due to the strong de-
nominational feeling existing in al
most every community, the study of
the Bible has become very delicate
matter to introduce in any form in
the average school system.
In the city of Harlowton, however,
for two years the study of the Bible
has been an accredited part of the
regular school course and no Objec-
tiOns whatever have been raised. Har-
lowton has solved the problem OF
keeping the Bible in the schools.
Briefly, the plan is this: Two
years ago, in response to a growing
demand from parents that their high
school children should receive q
greater knowledge of the Bible, the
leaders of every denomination repre-
sented in the city, met to discuss the
plan for inaugurating its study.
There are but three organizations
with buildings in the city. Therefore
three pastors, one Presbyterian, one
Methodist and one Catholic, met with
the superintendent of the public
schools and outlined course of
study.
It was decided to make the course
three year one. The first years
work is study of the life of Christ.
The second years work is study
of the life of Paul and his writings
and the third years course is based
ON the old Testament.
| Tho M cf0Y.c of tho rio nh ., ~,
conduct the classes. One class is
conducted each week in the high
school and one on Sunday at the
respective churches. One-fourth high
school credit is given for the work
and in order to obtain the credit, the
student must be present As out of
so lessons and pass the written ex-
aminations which are held every six
weeks.
The pastors take their turns con-
Quoting classes in the class room of
the high school. Last year the Ca
tholic pastor had his class room in
the church but this year he has asked
for one in the school. This will work
out even better for if one pastor fail
ed to take charge of his class stu
dent would be permitted to gain an
attendance credit by appearing in the
Catholic pastors class or vice versa.
The scheme has not only worked in
school. 1t has given the impetus to
united community work on the part
of the churches so that a practical
federation of churches exists in Har-
lowton.
So popular has the course proved
to be, that where third of the stu
dents received their credit last year,
this year over half are members of
the Bible course.

BEEF CATTLE BENEFIT FARM:
GOOD PROFIT IN DRY ROUGHAGE

The use of beef cattle in connec-
ton with general farming offers the
following advantages:
1t is possible to make greater use
of dry roughage produced on the
farm, as beef cattle consume larger
quantities of these feeds than any
other class of livestock.
Beef cattle can be used prOfitably
on rough land unsuitable for crop
production; also on low, wet land un-
suitable for either crops or for other
classes of stock.
Beef cattle use the total production
OF grain and roughages on the aver
age farm, without the purchase of
other feeds, more efficiently than
any other class of live stock.
Beet cattle on the farm favor a
we'll balanced distribution of labor
throughout the year. They require
very little attention during the sum-
mer and fall, when crops need atten-
ton, and during winter and early
spring work, when there is little field
work to be done. farmers can utilize
their time to advantage by caring for
the breeding herd, wintering stock
ers and feeders or fattening some
steers.

Shell Rock, neither time nor money
was spared by Talbot in making his
canyon home more attractive.
Although it is now almost a quar-
ter of a century since Talbot OBJ
tanned this property, and he has now
reached the age of SO, the spirit of
play that originated the purchase of
his acres, still lives, for it is at
Shell Rock that Linden built Mon
tana's first film play studio, which
is destined to bring the joy of the
big woods and the lure of river cleft
gorges to thousands.
It was In May of this year that the
Lindens first thought of building a
motion picture studio at Shell Rock.
The idea. once projected, grew rapid
~. BY June, Linden had made trip
to Los Angeles, secured a scenario,

The first folm play to be made in
a Montana studio has been released
from a motion picture studio at Col
umbia Falls. It is called Where
Rivers Rise, and Is being shown in
Northwestern Montana to large aud
fences, who are enthusiastic over
the production. Work on a new film
will be begun as soon as the director,
p. D. Tabler, returns from a trip to
California.
The Flathead Producers Corpora
ton, as the film company is named,
was originated and financed in its
initial production by Tom Linden and
his wife, May Talbot Linden. Mrs.
Linden is the daughter of James A.
Talbot, a we'll known Montana pion-
eer of the COS.
Talbot is well known to the pion-
GERS of Montana as a former Butte
banker. He was born in Ohio in
1888, and travelled to California in
1857. where he made small fortune
in the gold mines. At Virginia City,
Nevada, he went broke, however, and
came to Montana in 1863, working
for wages In the mines at Bannack.
When gold was struck at Alder Gulch
where Virginia City stands, he was
one Of the first there and made a lot
of money out of placer ground. He
then moved to Deer Lodge, living
there and at Butte, where he made a
fortune out of the Silver Bow group
of mines.
In 1899. while living in Butte, Tai
bolt bought the beautiful estate
known as Shell Rock, as playground
for himself and his family. This
place adjoins the town of Columbia
Falls, and consists of 200 acres lying
on the shores of Flathead river, at
the mouth Of Bad Rock canyon.
Beautiful as is the natural setting of

a cast for the leading parts, cam.
era and laboratory men, and by the
first week of July was shooting
Montana's first movie play.
The film, Where Rivers Rise, pre-
scented by the Flathead Producers
Corporation. is stirring tale of the
forests of Montana. It is a clean
play, resilient with the life of the
woods and camps and rivers; and
throughout there is the challenge OF
the unconQuered west, a challenge
for red-bl00ded men to get into the
game and pit their strength and in
genuity against the forces of nature
The location is in the vicinity OF
Bad Rock canyon and the upper
reaches of the Flathead river, and no
more beautiful surroundings could
be found anywhere in America.
In addition the picture gives a
good idea Of the numbering industry
beginning in the woods and follow
ing up on the drive to the mill, where
the sawler is shown riding the car
riage." The work on the drive is
particularly realistic, and the hero
of the plot rides log through the
rapids In a manner which is quite as
hair-raising in its way as any stunt
which Douglas Fairbanks ever pulled
off.
Among the interesting features OF
the film is q forest fire, which is the
real thing.
The picture was taken at the Echo
Lake fire last August, and the opera
tor got so close that many feet Of the
best film were burned, and he mar
rowly escaped with his life.
1t Is the only known forest fire
picture, except some taken by the
forest service.
1t has an added interest for Flat
head people in that the principal act
ors are all familiar faces, with the
exception of two or three profession
ais.
The plot Is centered around a
father and daughter living in an
eastern city who have lost all except
some timber lands in Montana and
come west to make their last stand.
Linden takes the part of the decrepit
father. The Timber Wolf Bar" is
probably q little wilder and woolier
than any that existed in real life, but
1t Will meet with the popular con-
ceptton. It 10 rather amusing to a
Kalispell audience to see a highly
respected business man taking the
part OF bad bartender, and estim-
able ladies taking the part of dance
hall habttues, but they are good act
ors and actresses.
Excellent as Is the story of the
scenario Of Where Rivers Rise, it is
conceded that even though the ro-
nance should be eliminated, the por-

NO PRELIMINARY GATHERINGS
Whatever Discussion There is On the
Agenda or Program Of Conference
Must be Available to All.

Washington The United States
Government means to deal fairly by
all the powers invited to the disarma
ment conference ana therefore is
frowning upon the suggestion of a
preliminary parley.
Right at the start the American
government has put its foot down
hard on one of the things that brought
such deluge of criticism on the Yer
sailles conference, namely the prac-
tice of few powers getting off to
one side and framing a program which
became a source of suspicion on the
part of the other nations who were
not in on the secret preliminaries.
President Harding and Secretary
Hughes are outlining principles of
procedure which are American rather
than European. Having invited all
the great powers to conference the
American government would not feel
that it was exactly fair to have a pre-
liminary gathering of a few nations
ahead of time The United States is
anxious to hold the conference at a
time that is convenient to all, but
nothing would be gained by hurried
meeting early in the fall in which
matters would be hastily discussed.
Whatever discussion there is on the
agenda or program must be available
to all powers. There will be no Sc
cret understandings. alliances or en-
tentes within the conference.
