DO you want to get into the movies?
by Hampton, Pictorial April
, Do you know the meaning of your dreams?

Psychologists have discovered that
dreams are yelled pictures of the things in
our lives that are most vitality important to
us.
In dreams we act out, in disguised
forms, all Our deepest hopes and fears, loves
and hates. And in dreams we find sym
boical fulflment of our deepest desires.
Through the new science of dream
analysis these veiled pictures can be inter-
preted, and the meaning of our dreams re-
vealed to us at last.

series of three Illuminating and fascinat-
ingly interesting articles on Dreams and
Their Meaning in Pictorial Review ex-
plains just how this is done.

SINCE the beginning Of time, mankind
~ has striven to find key to dreams.
Instinctvely they felt that dreams had
meaning. And they went to the sooth-
sayers and asked for interpretations
And now-not magic but science has
furnished the clue.
Do you ever dream that you are flying?
Or falling?-or that you are in some pub
lie place without your proper clothing?-
or that you are endlessly trying to pack a
trunk or do some other necessary and i'm
portant thing? Have you had the same
dream over and over-ever since you were
a child?
Nearly everyone has had these dreams
and wondered what they meant.

one that many people whose homes
have never before been threatened
with floods, found suddenly they had
to move in the middle of the night to
higher ground. John Boyle and
daughter, who live up Redwater, had
to leave at 200 a. m. and later some
cattle had entered their house in
seeking places of safety and one was
found drowned in the house. Sam
Undem of Cottonwood reports that
the creek past his place rose to such
a height that water came into his
house and the family was compelled
to spend the night in the granary
which was on higher ground. Mr..
Undem was out with a band of sheep
and after succeeding in getting them
up on high land went to the sheep
wagon where Chester Olson was
tending wagon, to warn him of the
flood coming. This was shortly af-

sheep wagon, not realizing the high
water was coming. Nh. Undem man
aged to warn him just in time to
seek high ground and ever then had
to wade through water reaching up
to his arms. Mrs. Som and children,
who were cooking for a shearing out
fit on Cottonwood were saved just in
time, when help arrived and got up
on a hill in safety.
Afloat In Home
The most thrilling story that has
reached here so far of the effects of
Sundays story is that of Mr.. and
Mrs. Irwin Root who reside on the
old Betty Ross ranch on Corral creek.
Sunday evening they noticed that the
creek was raising but of course did
not anticipate any danger. How

He says that about 23 years ago
he rode the first roundup the Indians
ever held on the reservation and was
wet from the time he started until he
got home, a period of about three
weeks. While no fixed rules can be
set down, it is the result of Mr.. Mar
mons observations that eastern Mon
tana is given to wet and dry cycles,
and on that theory he expects to see
several wet years follow the present
me-. Hay, range and crops, in Mr..
Marmon's vicinity, northwest on

says.

Mrs. Poore, mother of E. Y. Poore,
had the misfortune to fall down stairs
the latter part of last week sustain

The accident happened when she got
up in the night to close the windows

ever, suddenly they saw the water
come over the bank and before they
had time to get out of the house the
flood carried the family and the house
down the stream. They hung to a
window sill, keeping the two small
children out of the water as much
a spossible and after the house had
been carried fully half a mile it fin
ally lodged up against a bank and by
crawling through water waist deep
they got ashore and walked two
miles over to Roy Johns. Later they
found that the house had been COM
pletely ruined. Mr.. and Mrs. Root
were quite badly cut up about the
arms and came to Circle Wednesday
for medical treatment. They say It
was a most trying experience but
were tickled indeed to get out of it
as lucky as they did.
Building Lost
The Betty Ross residence was built
IS years G and at no time hereto
fore has the water on Corral Creek
reached as far as the house.
Another home to be swept away
was that of Refer Idland of Bluff
Creek. However, Mr.. Idland and his
who resides with him, left the
house just in time, because a few

had been damaged. A couple of the
finest trees had been almost buried
in mud, thistles and rubbish that was
washed through the orchard. A lot
of fence was torn down and many
acres of wheat washed out along the
creek.

of the storm but its several thousand

Seven Inches in Hour


At Circle the cloudburst occurred
Saturday noon, but at the Spring
Brook station the big cloudburst took
place Sunday evening from 1880 to
S:35. During that hour 6s94 inches
of water fell.
Although the Miller's have resid-
ed at their present ranch for nearly
twenty years they have lever yet
been compelled to seek higher ground
during any rainstorm. But they had
to move Sunday evening in a hurry.
By the time they realized that it was
unsafe to remain in their home any
longer the water had started to flow
past the house in a big stream, and
they had considerable difficulty in
reaching the barn where they were
obliged to spend the night, soaked
and chilled to the bone. They did
return to the house about ten o'clock
leave again. There was fully two
and a half feet of water in their resi-
dence when at its highest point, COM
pletely soaking and running all their
clothing, books, and other valuables
found in all homes which money can
not replace. The highwater even
reached the barn to a depth of a
foot.
Heavy Objects Moved
That the water must have been
deep and the current swift is evil
denced by the fact that a granary
14x24 was moved over thirty rods
and lodged against a group of trees
in the creek bottom. Another gran
airy 16x30 with 240 bushels of wheat
it it, was moved off its foundation.
A bunk house was moved about two
rods and lodged up against a tree.
The garage was completely ruined.
A large ash tree had come floating
down the creek and hit the garage,
taking it and the big Case automobile
anu plliuS CHSlH up III d utdp against
a group of trees in the creek bottom.
The car was completely buried by
dirt and rubbish and appeared to be
quite badly smashed up. A mower
standing in the yard had been car
ried about ten of fifteen rods by the
high water. A IA inch gam pillow
has not yet been found, nor a twenty
foot steel harrow and cart. Part of
this harrow was found 500 feet away.

LONDON. April lit is an unfor-
tnnate mischance that just at the mo.
ment when critical position in Euro
pean politics Is likely to arise Eng
land is distracted by the most severe
industrial crisis in her history.
AS May approaches the British and
Continental jingoes are beginning
to illuminate about what is going to
be done if Germany defaults payment
due at that time. Occupation of more
German territory is threatened. but
this can only have the effect of fur
ther embittering the populace and
making worse conditions which are
now almost impossible.
Attempts to extort payments from
Germany by measures already adopte d
have been shown to be futile, but
those whose ore idea of statesmanshin
is to perpetuate the war feeling only
clamor for more Of the same stuff.
New Offer Expected
1t is generally bele-ed Germany
will make fresh offers of settlement
before May / and the French papers
are already deciding-before hearing
the new ofFer-that it cannot be en-
tertained. The English papers are pre-
pairing to back the French in this con-
tention.
There seems to be no hope Of re-
turn to real international peace as
long as these lines are followed. The
British government is really desirous
of peace and settlement Of the repa-
rations question, but feels obliged to
back the Allies. The government,
moreover, cannot give proper atten-
tion to foreign questions while har-
assed with an industrial crisis at
home.
There Is q great opportunity for
your government to bring peace to Eu-
rope, and since the question Is largely
financial its claims on Europe's finances
give it both the reason and the weapon.
All reasonable people here welcome
its stated determinations, save per
haps in the matter of mandates, but
since American interests urge this
policy logic seems to suggest that the
same interests make it impossible for

q sympathetic strike threatened to tie
up the country's whole industry. It
is doubtful, however, whether the rail-
way men would have supported their
leaders decision with real heartiness.
and so it became evident to all work.
ers that the policy of general strike
was suicidal and might have results
fatal to the power Of trade unions.
Public Attitude Influential
II was probably for this reason that
the strike set for Friday night was de-
layed. although it was said it was for
renewed discussion Of the situation
Every delay increases the difficulty of
maintaining strike enthusiasm.
The union leaders were also infu-
enced by the prompt measures taken
by the government and the readiness
of the public to enter service to pre-
serve order.
Public opinion favors the claim of
the workers to a standard Of living bet
ter than pre-war days, but sees that
this is possible only through better
work and better management
Present diminished production and
high costs make it impossible to main
tain such a standard, but the workers
apparently think some mysterious
fund can be tapped quite apart from
production.
Suffers From Faulty Education
Thus England is suffering from
faulty education Of the working
classes, especially in economic mat
ters Living az she does on world
wide trade, she clearly cannot main
tain even q pre-war standard unless
she can sell goods abroad in compe-
tition with foreign producers.
This truism is ignored by labor's
claim for easier work and a higher
standard.
The financial center took the crisis
with wonderful calm The government
has taken step toward decontrol Of
the money market by offering Treas
ury bills partly by tender, which in
effect means that the price on the
bills will be fixed by bankers and bill
brokers instead Of by tn. Treasury.
The movement is welcomed as an indi~
cation of return to a normal money
market. 1t is also thought that this
means easier money rates in the
future, though this hope has been tenn
porarily checked by the miners strike

Europe Awaits New Political Crisis
When Germany Fails to Pay ON May l
Berlin Expected to Offer Fresh Proposal
Which Is Already Being Rejected by Press:
Withers Calls British Position Unfortunate

America to view with indifference her
European debtors frittering away one
another's resources by continual bick-
erings about indemnity payments in
volving costly military operations and
retaliatory measures which only dam
age both parties.
The London conference brought the
parties concerned TO within a meas
urahle degree of agreement and might
have produced settlement if it had
been more reasonably conducted. Ger
many's power to pay a corsidcra BILE
sum is undoubted, as all accounts agree
concerning the expansive power of her
industry if encouraged by q fair set
tlement.
Since the Allies power to meet their
obligations to America depends largely
upon receipt of the German payments,
the settlement Of the whole question
evidently closely concerns America.
In the mean time England's financial
and industrial recovery has been seri-
-ously retarded by the labor crisis. The
coal strike is already costing the coun-
try more in actual revenue-apart from
the indirect effects of the action-than
the subsidy required to meet the re-
cent loss on the mines. Nevertheless
it is felt the government was right In
refusing to grant the subsidy, because
if it had been granted to one industry
il obviously would encourape claim
from others affected by the trade de-
preston.
Wonld End Government Control
Opinion here is strongly in favor of
ending government control in all de-
partments of industry and hannce and
1t is recognized that system of sub
sidizing one industry from taxes gath
cred from others is utterly indefensi-
BILE. The sudden haste shown .u. with
drawing from control of the co.,l in
dustry as soon as 1t became unprofit-
able, however, was naturally cons iered
unfair by the workers, who as a con-
sequence found themselves threatened
with incomes seriously reduced. This
point was practically conceded by the
government, which expressed readi-
ness to give temporary assistance by
means Of loan to the industry.

tional wage agreements brought 6
