THE A N SHAKER.

The time honored custom of handshaking, which is
a well-established American custom, has been found
to be all wrong, after all the years DR.. Francisco
Sauceli, New York health expert, says SO. Accepting
DR.. Saltcellars dictum let US look into the matter and
see where we are at and what we can do about it.
The learned doctor points out that Former Presi-
dent Wilson is suffering from the effects of too much
handshaking under nerve tension. That the pernicious
custom undoubtedly was a contributing factor in the
death of Theodore Roosevelt and is sure it was mate
rally responsible for the death of Enrico Caruso.
Celebrating further, the doctor asserts that it will
not be many years before Americans turn to EN-
braeing or some other less harmful form of greeting.
This all comes just as Mr.. Harding has announced
resumption of the old time Handwriting carnivals at
the White House. He is a brave man but however
much he loves to greet his fellow countrynen, it were
better that he confne his activities to having his pic
ture taken than to take any chances with the hand
shakers paralysis.
As q substitute for handshaking of course there is
the near eastern form Of rubbing noses and the
French form of OSCILLATION. upon each cheek and as
the doctor suggests the embrace. Other styles there
are in plenty but any one of them would be a case of
casting off an old habit and forming a new one.
Under certain conditions the French custom or even
the doctors suggestion might go well enough; but it
is easy to see where objections would arise in either
system in general practice.

s R O TEXAS.

Texas has an organization devoted to the purpose
of reducing the membership of its state legislature.
This idea should be encouraged in the hope that it
would become epidemic throughout the great sister
hood of states.
Nobody would care much just how the reduction
was brought about. That would be a mere detail.
Texas may have some fresh plan worked out, but
other states will find either the machine gun or rat
poison very effective.
Then after the membership has been reduced all
around there ought to be a legislative holiday for ten
years, and sessions of ten days once every decade
thereafter.

VOICES IN THE WINDS.

! hear the wind around the house,
1t signs and cries and means,
And calls me in the lonely night
With old familiar tones;
My mothers sweet soprano speaks,
Some youthful fault to chide,
Then comes a childish treble clear
The little girls who died.
My fathers deep and rumbling bass,
My brothers laughter gay,
The soft, caressing voice Of one
Who loved and rode AWAY
All mingle in the wintry blast
And mutter and complain,
Or hold between the dusk and dawn
Light nver one again.
I hear the voices in the wind,
Old friends and loves of yore,
They murTnur at the batted blind
And whisper at the door
For every word that mortal lips
In love or anger say,
Is Photographed upon the air
For rowing winds to play.

NAUGHTY WIND STORM
BRINGS BUSHES TO
LASSIE AT BILLINGS

Billings-Here is a brand new
wind story that will defeat the 9TH
er fellows every time. Try it. Even
if his tells about a tree being blown
through a house, barn being moved
or anything else he will award you
the prize after this one:
A we'll known Billings young
woman was going down First ave
nue. hanging onto her hat to keep
il il from blowing away, and at the
same time trying to keep the skirt
of her chic taffeta dress down, when
the air was rent with an ear-split-
ting cry and she started down the
street in pursuit of a garment that
was being tossed about by the wind.
Two or three men went to the
assistance of the fair one in dis
tress and a wild race down First
avenue was the result, and no one
but the young woman knew what
they were chasing. The garment
finally lodged itself in a mud pud-
die, which by the way was right
in front of a barber shop. The
young woman ran like a race horse,
coming down the stretch, in an eff
fort to beaE the "heroes" to the
piece Of wear Ig apparel, but the
fates were aga rs f-r, The winner
of the race picked - garment up
out of the mud, and as he handed it
to the owner, who was scarlet with
bushes, the gaping public saw that
it was something pretty and pink
and silk, and yes it was a-cami-
sole.
"Some wind" was the general
coment of the onlookers, and one
dear old cat was heard to remark:
"Well, maybe some day these girls
will know enough to wear heavier
waists, and then such garments will
not be blown off them by the wind
If the truth were known though,
the camisole had been in a pack
age in the young woman's hand-but
then any how, it looked bad and
it's a good wind story.

BIG LEHMAN is IN OIL

Lewistown-A very difficult bit of
ground right over the sand in the
Big Lehman location is causing the
driliers at that we'll so much trouble
that it was decided yesterday to take
it easy and bring the well in without
fixing any time for completion. There
is between 100 and 200 feet Of oil
standing in the casing, according to
County Clerk and Recorder Louis j.
Lehman, who is at the well, and Sec
rotary Austin R. War;, who came in
from the well yesterday, thinks it is
likely to be Tuesday before the we'll
is finished
The So Petroleum's No. 2 we'll is
now around 200 feet above the pay
sand with all the indications most
favorable for production and this well
bids fair to repeat the phenomenal
success of the company's first well.

362ND INFANTRY
PLANS REUNION

Observation-Disclosures are be-
ing made for the first reunion of
the 362nd infantry regiment of the
DIST division to be held in Lewis
town during the state convention of
tho American Legion next June.
Colonel John H. Parker of st. Louis
and J. Ward Crosby of Livingston,
who are in charge of arrangements
for the reunion, issued the call a
short time ago.
The Send regiment included boys
from Montana, Idaho, Wyoming,
Washington and California, there
being $50 from Fergus county.
Fergus county and Montana de-
serve a large share of the glory
which has come to this famous regi-
ment through its wonderful work in
the st. Mihiel, Argonne and Elan
ders campaigns. At different times
they fought clear across France anC
J into Belgium.

TRIBE SUES u. s.
FOR HUGE AREA

Havre-Suit against the govern

of land valued at S1.25 per acre is
to be filed by the eros Ventre In
dian tribe, now on the Fort Belk-
nap reservation. The land covered
by the suit lies between the mouth
of the Musselshell river and Powder
river, south Of the Missouri.
The claim of the Indians is based
upon an unratified treaty made -
the tribe with federal Representa-
tives July 1886. Simon First
Shot, Joe Growing Four Times, Isaac
Blount, Henry Archdale and Ray
mond Feather constitute the delega-
ton chosen by the Indians to con-
duct the litigation.
Judge Rose of Havre has been re-
tanned as counsel for the tribe He
says the suit is authorized under an
act Of congress of June 3, 1920.

OIL NEAR
IN CHINOOK FIELD

Chinook-The Republic-Ohio COM
pany, drilling on Clear creek, will
suspend drilling for a few days
while the hole is being cemented.
This work it is stated will require
about 10 days. Cementing was
found necessary after repeated eff
forts failed to shut off the water
which has been seeping in from an
1S-inch vein encountered at about
800 feet. This water has been caus-
ing much delay for over a month.
The drillers expected to case it off
but it again broke through after
the drill had penetrated the frontier
sands of the Colorado shale. Be-
cause of the nearness to the oil
bearing sands it was considered toe
risky to continue.

City soon to adjust matters relating
10 future activities Of the Unit Petro

ming to get another we'll under way
Just as soon as possible. 1t is prob
able that while the directors are here
the location of the next we'll will be
decided upon.
The Metropolitan Petroleum COM
pany, with holdings in section 5-15-29,
about one mile west of the Ritter
Lawson producer, is getting things in
shape to have a rig on the ground
by April l. This company has its
acreage well placed on the top Of the
Cat Greek anticline and has good
chances of obtaining production.
The latest addition to the active
operating concerns in the Cat Greek
field is the Dakota-Cat Greek syndi-
cate, composed Of South Dakota men.

SEATTLE ..FLATwILLOw STATUS

Winnett-Ccnsiderable effort has
been made here to run down the ru-
MGR that the Seattle Flatwillow we'll
in the northwest quarter of the north
west quarter Of section 29-14-29 had
been brought in.
Although very little is known about
il here in Winnett, there being a
high board fence about the well, both
literally and figuratively speaking,
parties who came in from that sec
ton today stated that casing was be-
ing set at an unknown depth and
that work seemed to be going well.
If the report proves true that the
Standardization has struck the pay
sands the Metropolitan Petroleum, of
which Leo Faust is president, will
lie one of the big winners. That COM
rany owns $50 acres of land adjoin-
ing this well. Many other concerns
will also share in the good news.
Also, it will mean the bringing in of
another new structure, and one which
gives promise of rivalling the big
Cat Greek field, where there are now
q producing wells.
