Medicine Hat, Feb. THE United
Agricultural association of this city
has signed a contract with "Rainmak-

to increase precipitation in the district
between May / and Aug. / Of this

Hatfield is to operate over a Sec
ton Of territory at least 100 miles in
extent, with Medicine Hat as center.
His main point, he says, will be sit
uated at Chappice Lake, 20 miles from
here.
Hatfield is to be paid $4,000 cash
for each inch Of rain, with maximum
Of $4,000 for a 4 inch rainfall, but he
to be given credit for only one-half of
the total precipitation. Farmers are
said to be enthusiastic over the pros

The Bottineau high school basket
ball team last Friday night took the
fast Egeland quint into camp and won
with score Of IS to A. The game
was very interesting and as this was
the first defeat Egeland has met this
year it will show that our boys arc
now up and going. Tomorrow night
the fast Bowbells team plays against
the locals here and this game should
be even more interesting than tho
Egeland game as the Bowbells ag-
gregation have so far been victorious
in al lgames in this disctrict and are
confident of winning tomorrow nights
clash. Turn out and help support tho
Bottineau team. So far this year IL
has been hard matter TO meet the
expense Of bringing outside teams to
Bottineau, the town support has been
so small. Let's all show our school
spirit tomorrow night and help the
boys win.

AMERICAN LEGION HAS
HEROIC PART IN PLAY

In '"The Face at Your Window" a
new William Fox special production
which will be at the Grand Theatre
Feb. 9th,-are scenes that will stir the
blood of every true American. An
American city. in flames, American
women carried off by men inflamed by
foreign agitators, American children
victims Of war and riot-these are
incidents leading to the great climax.
"The Face at Your Window" is from
the pen of Max MARGIN, the we'll
known dramatist. He put into it all
his skill in plot construction and the
weaving of situation and character.
None of the street fighting scenes
was made on artifically constructed
"sets." Through the influence Of the
United States Government, Richard
Stanton, the director, was enabled to
work in real American manufactur-
ing town-Boonton, N. J.-and night
after night it's streets witnessed
scenes 70 battle.
"The Face at Your Window" is not
propaganda, but a rafting good story.
The lesson it carries is not one sided.
The lesson is for employers as we'll
as workers, for American women as
well as American men.
Above all, members of the Ameri-
can Legion should see this picture, for
the Legion plays big part in it. The
cast is "all-star," and includes Gina
Reilly, the well-mown French actress,
Earl Metcalfe, William Corbett, Peg
gy Reeves, Diana Allen and others.
