WOLF POINT MILL
NOW MAKING FLOUR

Mr.. Rygg, one of the proprietors
of the flour mill, who have just open
ed the plant for business, says that
they will begin the manufacture of
flour Wednesday and that everything
is running in fine shape. They had
been delayed in begging the making
of flour because the silk for the
boiling machine was not received.
Messrs. Rygg and Nelson are much
pleased that they will be prepared to
take care of business during the
Back to Normal sale period.

When all the business people of a town the
size of Wolf Point can fit their ideas and interests
into one great business plan that has for its para
mount object the blazing Of the road to better
ditions, it is indeed an encouraging sign, and
marks the time when all the other people concern
ed should fall in with the cooperative idea. Back
to Normal, while popular phrase that expresses
an idea is not exactly accurate, the West and its
people never go back, and at this time Back to
Normal means Forward March, after a season of
marking time, along the commercial highway to-
ward better times.
Business is business, but the fact remains that
many need the commodities of life and industry
and are scantly supplied with cash to obtain them
The merchants have goods much of which was
bought on the higher markets and can be re-
placed at much less cost, they have met the sit
uaton squarey, decided to take losses to clear the
business decks for profitable business later on.
The consumer supplies his needs at prices he can
pay-our cash circulates-business resumes The
plan is good. One thing remains to make it sue
cessful-confdence Let's use it.

The evening of entertainment an

SCIENCE LAUGHS
AT LONG DISTANCE
LISTENING TO VOICES IN DEN
YER LIKE A FRIEND A.
CROSS THE WAY

r. J. Moore related to a few audi
tors at the Sherman the other even
ing an experience he recently had at
Glasgow, that serves to prove that
the progress and wonders of science
are almost beyond the comprehen-
sion of the mind 81 was was at the
Glasgow radio station said Mr..
Moore, "about ten o'clock one even
ing listening for whatever might be
caught from other stations. Any
wireless apparatus such as the one
at Glasgow or in the hotel here can
be used to receive wireless telephone
messages as we'll as radio messages.
That is, you can hear spoken words
as well as the telegraphic code, al
though nothing but the code can be
transmitted. When conditions are
favorable, especially at night, radio
operators have custom of sending
messages in code, and also in words
if their station is equipped for that.
Roy Wharton and myself were watch
ing for whatever might come when

one of you, say How do you do, DR..

am transmitting this from my sta
ton at such-and such an address,
Denver, Colorado. Operators who

Moore, "but Immediately | heard

piece of music. | understand the title
is Let the Rest Of the World Go By
I heard this phonograph record very
clearly after / had laid my headgear
on the table and stepped back sew
eral feet"
Denver is something like 500 or
900 miles away by air line, and to
think of hearing the human voice
that distance, with no other connec-
ting medium than the atmosphere, is
enough to convince one that the pos
sibilities of science are absolutely un
limited. The transmitting of mes
sages by wireless telephone is com
ng into practical use, and expert
mentors are learning things about
he science that magnify its posi- !
oilities. It was formerly believed |
hat powerful apparatus was neces-
;ary to send these messages. Now !
t is found that comparatively weak
sending apparatus is sufficient and |
hat the important essential is for |
IN extremely delicate receiving
equipment.
Radio outfits such as that installed
It the Sherman, were supposed un
il recently, to have a sending radius
# not over $50 miles, but now they
ind that their messages are picked |
lp as far away as Seattle. Mr.. Moore
intends to equip his station so that
le can both send and receive spoken
wireless messages.

q more interesting or well stored
memory of people and conditions in
Wolf Point around 1885, than that
of Sherman t. Cogswell. Since his
coming, 35 years ago, no person has
been more intimately associated with

few hold such secure position in
the affectionate esteem of the citi-

those who have lived here through

Thirty Five Years Ago

The charm of the stories of pion-
eer times and pioneer characters
never grows less, but the multitude
of new interests that crowd into a
new country sometimes make the
newcomer overlook the fact that the
very spot where he lives was once the
stage where the gripping dramas of
early days were played, with full
repertoire of tragedy and comedy,
in real life.
The very name Montana suggests
a wealth of the lore of the wild and
woolly, and very few parts of it SUR
pass in thrilling history the region

CONCERT CO.
 DELIGHTS AUDIENCE

An audience that left but little standing room in the Sul- tana Wednesday night was de- lighted with the excellent pro gram rendered
 The company consisted of five members: Raymond liar mon, Tenor so1oist; Margarete Davis, Cornetist; Carolyn Gilbert, Pianist; Doris Rem per, Reader and Folk Dancer; and Felice Jung, Whistler.
 Every number on the pro- gram brought forth resounding applause, for each was ex- tremely well done. Perhaps the most eunique feature of the program, was the whistling of Felice Jung who proved that the sweetest of music may be produced with nothing more for an instrument than a pair of lips that can really whistle. Her imitation of the sweet tones of birds was so perfect that one felt an impulse to look for the bird-almost too perfect to be true

A PROCLAMATION
By President Harding

Whereas, The destruction by forest fires in the United States involves an annual loss of ap- proximately O,OOO and Cne devastation of approxi- mately 2,5OO,OOO acres of tim Der land and other natural re- sources and
 Whereas, The present de- plorably large area of nonpro- ductive land is being greatly increased by 33,O0O or more forest fires which occur each year; and
 Whereas The menace of a future timber shortage threat ems to become a present eco- homie fact seriously affecting g our social and industrial vel fare and
 Whereas, A large percent age of the forec+ fires causing the annual wagtG of natural re- sources may be prevented by increasing care and vigilance on the part of citizens:
 Therefore, I, Warren c. Harding, President of the Unit ed States, do urge upon the gov ernors of the various States to designate and set apart the week of May 22-2S, 1921, as Forest Protection Week, and to request all citizens of their stat es to plan for that week such educational and instructive ex- ercises as shall bring before the people the serious and unhappy effects of the present unneces- sary waste by forest fires, and the need of their individual and collective efforts in con- serving the natural resources of America.
 The above taken from the Presidents proclamation Apr. 7th.. should bring home to all of Coconino county, the great need of exercising ev- cry possible Drecaution to pre- vent forest fires. One way in Forest Protection week might be turned to god account is by appropriate exercises in the schools.

DIR. MARTIN HERE TO-PUSH FIGHT ON SOCIAL DISEASE

pr. John F. Martin, working under the direction of the State Board of Health visited Will Hams Saturday of last week, in regard to interesting the local activities to cooperate and CO., ordinate their functions so that the social disease evil may be better controlled.
 These diseases are responsi- ble for more deaths among our national population than any other disease, and as unsocial conduct is the primary cause of these infections, the parents and educators are appealed to in regard to better supervising the bringing up of the children, both in the home and in public schools. It Is important that children learn the truth from healthy sources that they may not suffer catastroph1es arising from unsocial temptations.
 Any person desiring informa- tlon along these lines may ob- tain the same by writing to State Department of Health, Phoenix, Arizona.

Because of the absence of a market for Arizona cattle this spring, MT. E. H. Crabb, Presi- dent of the Arizona Cattle Growers Association, has gone on trip through the northwest ern states in the effort to pro- vide some special means to ta ke cattle out of the state this spring.
 As resulting from MT. Ora abb's investigate he has wired to the Phoenix office of the associa tion from Wyoming, stating that Arizona steers, heifers and cows can be sold at good prices to the feeders of cattle up there if the Arizona banks will coop crate with the cattlemen to the extent of accepting good paper to cover the sale there. Up- on leaving for this trip MT. Crabb had in mind various sug- gestions of cooperation wirn the owners of these maturing pastures who, it is understood, are wanting cattle but on ac- count of the scarcity of credit. were unable to buy. In his telegram he states that after a careful survey of the situation he believes this plan to be pre- fera ble, and urges cattlemen be selling their stuff, to look into the proposition. The cattle would all be under fence and should reach the DaStI1reS in the northwest by June 10th or earl fer if possible.
 It is the plan of the Arizona Cattle Growers Association to carry out this arrangement in every detail for as many of the cattlemen of the state who may wish and are able to ship in this way; which will provide some centralized means to look after the credit end of it for all cattle men taking advantage of the arrangement.
