SCHOOL DELAYED
FOR ONE WEEK
Date Fixed September IL In Order to
Allow Students to Help With
Harvest.

School will not open until a week
later than usual this year. The ex-
tension has been made by the school
authorities in order to allow the ex-
ira time in the harvest fields, hoping
thus to have every boy and girl who
plans to attend school, present on the
first day.
Professor Williams, when talked to
regarding school matters said that he
was urging parents to make special
the first day in order that each stu
dent may have a fair start in the
years work. Regular classes will be
heard in every grade and department
on the afternoon of the first day, the
morning being devoted to the charg-
ing of books and registration. 1t is
important that all students not able
to enter on the first Monday should
register with the City Superintendent
on Friday, September 9th. in order
to be given consideration in the max
ing of the class schedules.
Regarding the high school and
transportation, Prof. Williams said:
"In the high school practically the
same courses will be offered as last
year. In the grades, children coming
in with the school busses should fol-
low the same arrangement as last
year excepting that all beginning
students Of the first grade coming on
the North side busses should report
on the North side. The eighth grade
students of the district will be pro-
vided for in the high school the same
as last year."
A preliminary canvass of the city
shows that students planning to enter
high school from any part of the
county will find ample arrangements
for rooming and boarding in private
homes. Special rates will be made
for students. Seventh or eighth grade
students in the rural communities of
school district number one will find il
advantageous to take their upper
grade work in the city schools where
they will have access to the city anC
school libraries. No tuition is charg.
ed high school students attending the
Glasgow high school from any district
of Valley county. Grade students at
tending the Glasgow grade schools
from Independent districts should
make arrangements for tuition before
entering. A list of the teachers ant
the grades or departments they will
teach will appear in the press mex
week.

FLYERS and auto POLO
SECURED FOR OUR FAIR
Arrangements Completed to the Greatest Fair in History
of County-A Full Entertainment Program
With Many Leading Attractions

''If we do not have to contend with
bad weather, which is very improb-
able, we will have the best fair, with
the largest attendance, ever held in
Valley county," is the prediction re-
garding the county fair next week.
of Fred Weigel, secretary
A visit to the grounds shows that
extensive improvements have been
made and new plans inaugurated to
accommodate the crowd. There will
be the best police protection, during
the dangerous phases of the auto rae
ing and flying, and every precau-
ton taken for the safety and pleas
ure of visitors, both young and old.
Entries are coming in, though the
great rush of these will arrive on the
first day, and large force of clerks
will be on hand to care for them with
out delay.
During the week the ever enter
prising business men of Glasgow,
have contributed to the fair, by en-
ploying Chet Jacobson, of Minot, and
Mike Kelly, Of Poplar, two we'll known
aviators, to fly at the fair. This is
free show, and exhibition flights
will be made daily by these daring
| skywaymen. An added thrilling fea-
ture, worth coming miles to see, will
be the race between the fastest of
the racing cars, and the airplane.
Arrangements have also been made
with the Great Western Carnival
company, which will be in Glasgow
during the fair 1t has the usual good
street fair attractions.
During this week Secretary Weigel
has succeeded in securing the two
interstate Auto Polo teams to COM
pete at the fair. This novel event is
on Of the highest class of fair at
fractions, and can only be secured
by the very best fair organizations.
People who delight in red-blooded
sport will be more than gratified with
the exhibition
The entries for the automobile
races now comprise some of the fast
est drivers in the country, who will
use the latest models of racing cars,
of the best manufacturers. These
racers are such as only appear at the
best fairs and were difficult to in
duce to enter in competition in Mon
tana, except at the state fair, it was
only by combining with other counties
that it was made worth their while
to enter at the county fairs.
Local interest is great in making
the fair the best ever held so far as
agricultural exhibits are concerned,
for the reason that this year Valley
county products are of the prize win
ming kind and good showing at this
fair will insure the county's success
at the state fair, with the wide pub
licity that such success brings. Every
one seems interested in making the
exhibits at the fair so good that they
will be in a class by themselves. This
can be done.
An outline of the amusement and
racing program which commences
daily at 1:3O, follows:
Band concert.
Running horse race, 4 mile.
Relay race, first heat.
Auto Polo.
Boys pony race.

SCHOOLS MAKE
TAXES HIGHER
Commissioners Have Made Slightly In
creased Levy for Year-Reasons
Given.

!" At an adjourned meeting this week,
the county commissioners have made
the yearly tax levy, which on the
whole is a little larger than last year.
There are several reasons why the
levy is increased, one being that this
county in common with others, has a
decreased valuation, as compared with
last year. Another principal reason
is the increased amount of money re-
quired by the schools. As no one
will regret money expended for edu-
cation of the young, the levy must
be satisfactory. The record of the
commissioners follows:
For State Purposes.
To be levied upon all livestock sub
ject to taxation: 31a mills.
Livestock commission fund, mill.
Livestock bounty fund, IL mill.
State livestock sanitary board fund,
l mill.
To be levied upon all property sub
ject to taxation: 4.3 1-15 mills.
State general fund, 31a mills.
War defense bond fund, 40 mills.

sinking fund, 1-15 mill.
Educational and bond interest sink
ing fund, 2-5 mill.
For County Purposes.

ject to taxation in the county: rs

Rush me a Royal typewriter

Courier front office received over
the wire, from Frank Mitchell, at
Poplar, at 10 o'clock Wednesday
morning. Mr.. Hooking and Chet
Jacobson were chatting in the Of
flee at the time, and after a few
words on the subject with Jacob
son, Hooking asked Mitchell if
noon would do, and receiving an
affirmative response, told
Mitchell that service was the
Curriers' motto, and that he
should have the machine by noon.
JacObsOn's air plane was COM
mandeered and freighted with Mr..
Hooking and the Royal, it hoped

in the time limit.
The flyers report the trip as
slow on account of the high head
wind, but enjoyable. Chet Jacob
son has the well earned reputation
of being the foremost flyer of
the northwest, having splendid
record behind him, both in and
out of the army. He will give ex-
hibition flights daily at the fair
next week, when all will have a
chance to see him in action.

uncultivated this year, weeds are thriv-
ing and the seed from them may pre-
sent a problem next year, but this
year everything is favorable except
where hail destroyed few of the
crops.
Hired hands for farm work are a
bit scarce, Mr.. Beier says, and he be-
lieves jobs can be provided there for
large number of men. The work, he
believes, will last for considerable
period, sufficiently long, anyhow, to
make it worth ones while to seek
farm employment there for the har-
vest.
Grain shipments are heavy, from 60
to 20 per cent of the crop having been
cut. The Great Northern and the
$500" line get the business of that
territory.
