French Peasants Hide Money

Paris, Dec. 29.-The ingenuity of
French peasants in hiding money has
surpassed itself in the case of mar
near Lorient who received 1000
franc note and a 500 franc note in
payment for produce. He hid them
in the muzzles of his double-barreled
shotgun, believing that would be the
last place thieves would search for
money.
He made a mistake, however, in
not taking his wife into the secret.
A neighbor called few days later,
in the absence Of the man Of the
house, and asked for the loan Of the
gun to get a hare.
The hare escaped and when the
peasant came in that evening his wife
remarked that the neighbor must be
very bad shot.
IN "Why?" the peasant asked.
l''Because he used both charges Of
your. gun on hare without hitting
it,"
"My shotgun 2" inquired the peas
ant with a gasp, at the same time
making for the corner where the wea-
bpon hung.
= The civil court of the department
of Morbihan will have to decide the
delicate point Of law whether the
neighbor is responsible for the loss
Of the 1900 francs.

Vaius Mrs. John F. Lyons,
presiass Of the National Federation
@%Music Clubs, in letter to the indi.
sMdual clubs Of the federation, sets
Eorth the aims of that organization
(1or the coming year. Eleven hundred
clubs, with approximately 200 900
members are affiliated with the ma.
tional organization, Mrs. Lyons said.
i want to see the music clubs
junction properly as the greatest and
most powerful single asset for the
good of the community and for the
advancement of the community life in
all its phases" said Mrs. Lyons, in
her first direct communication to the
clubs over which she took charge this
year. "We have long left behind us
the idea that music was only for the
favored and cultured few and have
come to recognize its universal and
practical value. We must make good
as community asset. The music
clubs have been chiefly instrumental
in the advancement thus far and fu
turs progress is largely in their
hands"
"As a rational organization, feel
that our strongest efforts must g
centered for time along line of ex-
tension, education and greater effici.
ency, for the national, state and indi-
vid1a1 nruop;,ot;o,, SEY ,>,,,.. l
more clubs, stronger clubs, greater
unification Of plans and general co,
ordinating and strengthening of fed
Grafton machinery before our organi-
cation can command the consideration
that is rightfully it's own and take its
proper place in the history of musica,
America" Mrs. Cecil Frankel, Los
Angeles, Calf, is chairman of ex
tension and will plan and carry on the
work through the district and state
presidents, according to Mrs. Lyons.
Attention to the cause OF music in
the public schools was urged by Mrs.
Lyons as first among her policies.
Mrs. Frances Elliott Clark, of Cam
den, New Jersey, is chairman of the
education department. Mrs. William
John Hall, st. Louis, Mo-, is chairman
of junior and Juvenile clubs section
and the department Of American mu-
sic is in the hands of Mrs. Ella May
Smith, Columbus, Ohio.
Three matters of legislation were
called to the attention of the indi-
vidual clubs by the national president.
Mrs. Lyons urged protest against
the proposed tax on musical instru-
ments and support of the Towner
Sterling bill for department of edu-
cation and establishment of national
conservatory of music.

THE WORLDS MOST
WONDERFUL PLAYGROUND

One day last year two youths stroll
ed out of Brooklyn with stout hearts
and a hundred dollars. They crossed
the East River, an arm of the Allan
tic ocean, and their avowed d~estina-
ton was California and the Pacific.
In small packs were a change or two
of socks, underwear, and trousers. On
their feet were good thick-soled shoes.
In due course they arrived in the
open country. The highways spread
long and broad before them. Most of
the time they walked; but frequently
an automobile with two vacant seats
drew up abreast of them, and the
friendly hail struck their ears:
Have a ride, boys?"
"Sure!!"
They passed through busy cities and
magnificent stretches of farmland to
the Mississippi; they entered upon the
vast granaries of the prairie country;
the Rockies at last doomed before
them. They assembled to the summit,
and on the Continental Divide swung
down into the great wonderland that
every boy and girl in the country
ought to see, as a matter of that COM
pulsory education which our young
sters are far from enjoying under
current school systems.

TO HERE

It is reported from reliable sources
that this immediate territory and the
Shields River Valley will soon receive
a colony Of eastern farmers, part of a
general plan to ~colonize the cheap
lands Of the several counties in this
surrounding group. This plan is to
cut up the best lands into reasonable
tracts for the purpose of developing
dairying and diversified farming, and
thereby to overcome the failures of
s~traight-crop farming methods.
This land has proven the practical
bility of dariying and diversified
farming possibilities and this fact is
generally admitted. Ringing will be
one Of the main gateways to the sur
rounding hundreds Of thousands of
acres of taunt, virgin lands.
The colonization is thoroughly plan
ned and already well under way, with
early success practically guaranteed
due to the ~unfavorable farming con-
ditions in eastern states where $3.50
acreage is considered cheap goods,
Notwithstanding the low prices of farm
and dairy products.-Ex.

NO DIFFICULTIES AHEAD

Lewistown, April 14.-The Montana
syndicate well was spudded in this
week on the southwest quarter of Sec
ton 15-15-30. A good start is report
ed and good progress is expected, as
the outfit is first class, the crew a
group of experienced drillers, and
there r no difficulties ahead at this
time. The location Of this syndicate's
holdings is such as to justify their
hope that oil will be reached and a
producing well brought in.

body was found in the evening when
he failed to return home.
On Monday he had left home to go

and failing to return, a search was
made and his charred remains were
discovered,

shorter, for in 1920, when they were
at the "height of fashion," the total
was only 70. Mr.. Harrison declares
the greatest number of accidents in
which women figured resulted from
long skirts, in most instances the
heel of the shoe catching in the hem.
Few accidents of this character oc-
cured in 1920, however, he added.

ed that a company has been formed

The Van Duzen discovery well,
whicvh is in the limelight again after

who is in the city, states that the
work of setting the 3 1-2 inch casing
is now under way and as the drilling
tools have been secured the sand will
be drilled in Monday or Tuesday. This
is expected to prove the existence of
a second productive sand in the Devils
Basin and may cause a revision of
drilling plans now under considera-
ton by other companies.
