KEPT CLOSE TO ORIGINAL
TWIN BEDS" SCRIPT

In transferring the famous farce
comedy, ''Twin Beds" from the
stage to the screen, the original
script of the stage play has been fol
lowed very closely. The wide popu-
larity of the stage play is believed by
Carter DeHaven, who produced the
picture, to be best upheld by making
the film version as nearly identical as
possible.
Often times in adapting plays and
stories for use as pictures, it is nee
essary to alter them somewhat, but
in the present case play has been
chosen which adapts itself perfectly
to screen presentation.
"Twin Beds" is Carter DeHaven's s
first picture for the Associated First
National Exhibitors Circuit, and is
reported to be tremendously salts
factory presentation of one of the
funniest plays that ever graced the
American stage. The play enjoyed
an unusually long Broadway run
and was represented by six road COM
panies, which gave this laughable bed
room farce to practically the whole
country.
"Twin Beds" comes as the attrac-
ton at the Liberty next Thursday
and Friday.

A meeting of the directors of the
Commercial Club was held in the club
rooms on Tuesday evening. Those
answering to the roll call were o. G.
Johnson, president, and directors H.
A. Schoening, j. L. Davey, George Fl.
Flint and 0. T. Stennes.
In a communication to the cclub
it was shown that the federal govern
ment has appropriated S1,546,000 as
federal aid for road construction in
Montana. 1t should be noticed that
when federal aid is given the sum ap-
propriated must be matched by equal
state appropriation. Prior. to five
years ago the federal government
took no active part in the road con
struction of the country. Today
about one-half of all the roads that
are being built are being aided by
the federal government, and the con-
struction is subject to the inspection
and approval of federal engineers.
The secretary was instructed to com=
municate with the State Highway
Commission regarding state aid on
highways leading out of Wolf Point.

to the railroads but means increased
business for the roads. He figures
that the freight unloaded here from
tributary country will bring enormous
tonnage here for shipment which 9TH
erwise would be diverted southwark.
Mr. Mckay urged that strong drive
be made on Congress this winter by
the commercial clubs of the cities a

WOMAN WINS AGAINST
FORMER LOCAL LAWYER

The defendant in the case at spo-
kane referred to in the item below
taken from the Spokesman-Review OF
that city is Edward N. Graham, an
attorney formerly located here. Suit
to recover the money involved was
brought against Graham by Lena
Grellong before he left here, but was
dismissed on motion of Assistant
County Attorney Catlin. The Spo-
kane paper says:
Judgment for $1050 was awarded
Lena Grellong of Wolf Point, Mont,
yesterday after she testified before
Judge Lindsey that Edward Graham,
former attorney there, but now a
resident of Spokane, has appropriated
the money to his own use.
"a letter in the case which was
presented by Lena Grellong, showed
that Mr.. Graham had accused her of
damaging him and causing his wife
to suffer Graham averred the mon
ey washis under an agreement. Lena
Grellong testified it was to be used
for business purposes"

NORTHEAST MONT.
Still BEST PLACE
BUSINESSMAN FINDS FARM AND
TOWN CONDITIONS IN OLD
Err STATES POOR

Amandus Johnson, of the Fad Clo-
thing store, returned home Tuesday
from an eastern trip that included
the home of his people at Montevideo
Minnesota, and the Twin Cities and
Chicago, where he stocked up for the
store in certain lines. Like every
one else who has recently visited the
states and cities east of us, Mr.. John
son returned with the firm conviction
that conditions here are greatly to be
preferred to those existing in the
east. The farmers in states such as
Minnesota and Iowa are actually in
deplorable circumstances. Many who
were considered well to do just few
years ago are now forced into bank
ruptcy. Country town business men
and bankers, whose business is direct
ly affected by agricultural conditions,
are just as bad off as the farmers.
Mr.. Johnson says he does not
spread this news to knock eastern
states or increase the feeling of de-
preston, but simply by way of let
ting those who think they can i'm
prove their condition by leaving this
country, know that they are due for a
rude surprise. A true incident is
mentioned, not by Mr.. Johnson, but
by another local business man, in
which a Minnesota farmer, wealthy
in point of property, and regarded as
thoroughly substantial and reliable,
wrote to his son, a homesteader on
the reservation north of here, earn
estly asking the loan of small a
mount of money, something he was
unable to raise or borrow there.
Without looking for it, evidence
is noticed every day that this section
of the country is regarded as for5u-
nate, and quite few people are drift
ting into Wolf Point as the best sit
uated place to be found, both fnanc-
ially and industrially.

Sheep Rancher Stocks Up In Wolf
Point After Considering
Big Mail House

Wesley Howard, one of the prom
inent sheep men of this part of the
state, whose ranch is in the Westfork
country, about go miles northwest,
was in Wolf Point this week to pur-
chase winter supplies for his ranch.
A short time ago Mr.. Howard accom-
panied a shipment of sheep to Chi
cago, and while there paid visit to
the Montgomery-War establishment
to take note of their prices an dim
vestigate methods of carrying on a
mail order business. Mr.. Howard
saws it is an immense institution that
has grown out of wonderful bust
ness-getting idea. Nevertheless, he
returned home convinced that there
was nothing to be gained by buying
supplies there and shipping them.
AS result of this conviction Mr..
Howard bought three wagon-loads of
groceries from the Cash Grocery &
Bakery, as well as quantity of other
supplies. This is the second big pur-
chase of groceries made from the
Cash Grocery this season, and 1T goes
to prove that the claim of Wolf Point
that they can successfully
meet mail order prices, is well found

SCHOOL GIRLS SONG
WINS POPULAR FAVOR
Catchy Tune and Clever Rhyme
Make Montana GirP' an
Emphatic Success

Have you heard Montana Girl?
If not, don't miss a chance. Mon
tana Girl, the new song hit, is be-
coming the most popular song of the
day in every place it is introduced.
There is a Tilt and spirit to both
words and music that is contagious
and irresistible. 1t will be found in
every music stock as fast as deal
ers hear of it and would prove good
seller as a phonograph record.
Local interest is especially strong
in the new song because Wolf
Point high school girl, Marian L..
Walter, is the author of both words
and music. While the production
shows marked degree of merit, it
is nothing more than Miss Walters
friends had predicted for her as her
development as an artist has been
remarkable. Although but II years
of age she ranks as an expert cor
netist and is proficient on several
other instruments, including piano.
She belongs to musical family.
A sister is an excellent performer
on the saxaphone and two brothers
are good on wind instruments. All
three play in both the school orches-
ira and band.
Montana Girl is published by Miss
Walter and printed by a Chicago
house. Locally it is for sale at
Walters Drug Co., The Wonder
Store and by Wiss Walter herself at
25 cents the copy.
