ness, pay at least the going rate Of
lead in reducing the wages of the low
est paid class Of workers in the city.
Cost Of Living.
There is no evidence before the
in the cost of living, but it may be
conceded that there has been some re-
duction in living costs from the high
peak Of last year. The scale of $3.50
day was, however, set and agreed to
last year long before the high cost
peak was reached, and it is a matter
Of common knowledge that at this
time last year wages for common labor
Of $3.50 day, Sc day and board hav-
ing been paid to harvest hands, and
private employers of common labor in
Great Falls were paying from Sc to 81
a day during the summer and fall OF
1920.
THE laborers of the city are willing
to accept a reduction in wages based
on the comparative cost Of living on
the date when they accepted $3.50 and
the cost'of living at this date.
1--WE present herewith q schedule of
living expenses, which we believe to
be rather below than above the average
living cost of a family Of five, but
which nevertheless shows that an in
come of S1242O per month is re
quired for their maintenance.
In conclusion, we ask that the arbi-
traitors appointed by the mayor pre-
sent to this board a statement in
writing of the facts, which in their
opinion, justify the reduction in wages
ordered by the city council, so that
there may be no mistake or misunder-
standing in the matter, and We further
ask that if they disagree as to any
item contained in the following sched
ule Of expenditures presented by us,
that they correct such item.
Plead Reasonable Wage.
'The City of Great Falls should be
required to pay to its employees
sufficient wage to enable the workman
to provide himself and his family with
reasonable maintenance. A family is
usually understood to consist of five
persons, to be supported by one wage
Garner.
please fill out blanks with the
amounts you think sufficient to pur-
erase the following necessaries of life
for a family of five for one day.

Hen Mothers Kittens.

Cascade, IA few days ago an
old cat and lonely little kitten
strayed onto the premises of j. B.
Dominy in East Cascade and on ac-
count of numerous rats and mice in
the barn were given a hospitable
reception.
One day the old cat "beat it" for
some reason and the little kitten was
seen no more. Yesterday when Mrs.
Dominy went to gather the eggs she
discovered one of her favorite Rhode
Island Red hens was fussy when ap-
preached and seemed to be cuddling
something underneath her wings on
IA nest. Upon further investigation
the lady discovered tnat the little
kitten had taken refuge with the old
hen and seemed quite at home.

Women Jurors Refused Food at Pub

;. Waterloo, Ia.-One difference
between a male jury and one where
a majority are women, that the fair
sex are not as hungry as the men at
meal time.
In an action on promissory note
jurors, comprising nine women and
three men, went out at A p. m. At
6 o'clock Baliff HI. G. Fish asked il
they wished to go to supper.
"No thank you," said woman
juror, apparently the spokesman.
"We will not eat until the case is
concluded"
<The jurors came to an agreement
at 7:30 p. m. After giving the bailiff
their sealed verdict the nine women
and three men wendell their way
home or to a restaurant to procure
refreshments.
They refused to dine at public ex-
pense, which is unusual in the annals
of local jurisprudence. At all other
times the jurors have been willing to
eat at mealtiIne when thei~ work has
not been completed.

"That he is all through paying

Gently by E. H. Beckstad, well-known
hog raiser and authority on live

Mr.. Beckstad's hogs are the envy
of his neighbors, and have topped
the market flor several years in

bought high-priced hog foods and
hog remedies, but he is all through
paying extravagant prices for what
he can make himself. He states that
what the hogs need are minerals, and
tells the secret of his wonderful sue

VACHEL LINDSEY TO
APPEAR THIS EVENING
AT THE W0MAN'S CLUB

Vachel Lindsay, who will give
readings from his poems at the
Woman's club tonight, is glad to
get back to New Mexico which he
proclaims the most fascinating
state in the union. New Mexico Is
weird" he says, Somewhat unreal.
Like sunny day in an Edgar Alien
landscape. Full of color and va
riety, romance. Endless possibili-
ties"
Whether the sandy haired poet
will ever write about New Mexico
or not is another question. He has
written but little during the past
two years, for his speaking engage
ments both abroad and at home
have kept him too busy. He has
visited or will visit more than sixty
colleges during the present season.
While he fills other dates, he
like the college visits best, for they
bring him most in contact with as
piring young writer's. Mr.. Lindsay
is very genuine in his interest in
the young writer, and very generous
with his help. He believes that the
poetry Of the present era will come
from the Rocky mountain region,
and on that account is particularly
eager to become acquainted with
the writer's of the west.
The program tonight will include
all Of Mr.. Lindsays best poems and
the skill with which he brings out
shades and meanings that are not
obvious on the written page will
undoubtedly capture his audience.
The program will start at half past
eight and tickets may be obtained
at the door. There are no reserved
seats.

hall at the time of the shooting,
Barney Blunt and Olney Child
ers, also taxi drivers, were with
Clayton at the time of the shoot
ing. According to stories told the
police, they were on their way to
a dance and had stopped in the al
ley for a few minutes when five
or six men standing in the alley
opened fire on them. Clayton was
struck by one bullet and died almost
instantly, living long enough to ex-
claim that II don't know why they
did it, but died game"
