MURRAY TAKEN TO MONTANA,

Thursday evening R. G. Fitzpatrick,
deputy sheriff of Flathead county, Mon
tana, arrived in Glenwood, armed with
extradition papers signed by Governor
Shoup, authorizing him to remove from
the state Tarl Leroy Murray, who for
the past week has been confined in the
county Jail in Glenwood on charge of
grand larceny, preferred by party in
Kallispel, Montana, from whom he pur-
chased an automobile on which he had
made cash payment, giving his notes
for the unpaid balance.
Murray left the state and sold the
automobile, his claim being that he
found it necessary to dispose of the
car in order to secure the money to
pay for necessary surgical operation
on his wife.
However, Murray, will be given op-
portunity to make whatever explana-
ton of his conduct he may deem neces-
sary to the court in Kallispel, as Fhtz-
patrick left last night with his pris-
oner, bound for that point.

COURT HOUSE ACTION DEFERRED

At the last February session of the
board of county commissioners, when
the matter of securing title to the
court house site was brought up, it was
found that the title to the Morrell
lots was not clear, inasmuch as one Of
the Morrell brothers, who was par.
owner in these lots, died few years
ago, and the estate has not been prop
erly administered through the county
court. The effect is simply to delay
matters until this legal requirement
can be attended to.
A proposition from the Masonic lodge
in regard to a trade of the present
Masonic property for the present court
house, was not looked upon favorably
by the commissioners, and no action
was taken on the matter.

When Harvard University opened
last fall, at meeting of the students,
called for the purpose Of getting them
in line for the work Of the year, old
students were reminded and new stu
dents informed that there were in the
university four different institutions,
representing four different kinds Of as
tivities-the Field, the lecture rooms,
the deans office and the chapel. The
first for physical training, the second
for intellectual work, the third for
moral discipline, the fourth for spirit
ual development.
AS an institution of learning, the
second stands for the work proper to
it. But, since sound mind in an I'M

up and invigorate the body; and, since
a sound mind in a sound body without
a good will, manifested in good man
ners and morals, such as would bring
the heart and will of the student in
full accord with the heart and will OF
the institution, is not enough to secure
the best loyalty, the deans office ex-
lists, to jerk up and rein in such stu
dents as act as though their morals and
manners were their own affairs.
Some may say, "Well, with bodies,
minds and wills cared for, that should
be enough. And enough is plenty
Bs;>yno; there is yet the fourth, the
chapel, with its ministsat1sss to the
spirit, its atmosphere Of reverence, its
worship; its reminder to the students
of the Immortal, Invisible God, in
whom each lives and moves and has his
being. aaE'
Is that foursquare provision of Har-
vard's good one.
A sound body, trained mind, a dis
ciplined will, worshipful spirit.
Isn't it good for all of us in the
