are more pianos, more violins, more
monographs, more students of music,
more instructors of music and more
interest in music there than in any
other Montana city, Miss Gray stated.
The city's prestige in a musical way
is in a measure due to the residence
there of instructors who hold high
in the world of music.

More than 5000 disabled veterans
of the World War residing in the
tenth federal vocational education
district, consisting of North and
South Dakota, Minnesota and Mon
cording to Lief Fredericks, director
for the state of Montana who return
ed last week from a conference with
vocational training men at district
headquarters at Minneapolis.
Despite the fact that most of the
courses given the students consists
of two or more years of training, 238
have already successfully finished
their course and have been satisfac-
torily placed in positions. The re-
suits of the federal boards efforts
to help disabled soldiers to learn {
trade or profession whereby they can
be independent, said Fredericks, are
highly gratifying.
Of the 5000 men that have been
approved for training, 1890 are now
in study, $40 have temporarily dis
continued their studies for the sum-
while 702 have declined train
ing, and 1,006 have asked that their
training be deferred until further re-
quest. {
All who wish to take training, said
Fredericks, will be taken care of
promptly, as the government has ade-
quate facilities to care for all. If
the government has not precisely
what is wanted in all cases, appli-
cants can enter any of the large as

Would Insure His Guide

The state industrial accident board
is of a mind that employment as a
guide for a camping party is not a
hazardous occupation. But an east
ern man who is camping in Montana
and has asked his attorneys in New
York to try to have his guide in
sured under the state compensation
law, evidently has visions-of a hun
CRY bear, a deep lake, a slippery
mountain, where the guide might be-
come separated from himself or part
of himself.
Guiding a camping party comes
under the head of pleasure, just as
baseball does. The pleasure
may be for the bear that chases the
guide up the lodgepole pine, but
camping out is not a business con-
Quoted for financial profit, so the
law does not apply.

survey of Great Falls brought out the
fact that there are FLAP pianos own

Miss Gray found that there are
SAT students taking instruction in
music in Great Falls public schools,
of whom nearly all are studying the

musical theory there are $50 enrol

CITIES MUST OPEN
LABOR OFFICES
FIRST AND SECOND CLASS NUM-
CAPABILITIES TO OPEN BUREAUS
BY OCTOBER 1

Free employment offices must be
established by October l in all Mon
tana cities of the first and second
classes, according to an order issued
by Charles D. Greenfield, Jr., chief OF
the division of labor and publicity OF
the state department of agriculture.
The order is based upon the recent
opinion of Attorney General yelling
ton Dr. Rankin holding that it is man
datory upon the cities to maintain
the employment offices.
Cities affected are:
First class - Anaconda, Billings,
Butte, Great Falls, Helena and Mis-
soula.
Second class - Bozeman, Havre,
Kalispell, Lewistown, Livingston and
Miles City.
After quoting the attorney gener-
ais opinion and the section of the
laws of the recent legislative assem-
bly, upon which the opinion is based,
Mr.. Greenfield's order says:
sit has been a grievance of labor
in Montana that men and women
seeking employment are subject to
the abuses that sometimes are found
in private employment offices. Con-
ditions this winter will probably af-
ford an opportunity for these abuses
to be aggravated.
Regardless, however, of the fact
that the present seems an opportune
time for the establishment of free
public employment offices, it is the
mandatory duty Of this division un-
der the law to administer statutes re-
lative to free employment offices,
and it is likewise the mandatory duty
of city councils in cities of the first
and second classes to establish such
free employment Offices"
The formal order, specifying Octo-
Der 1 as the time limit, is then en-
tered.

in the barn there came sounds of
saving and hammering, carpenters
were seen to come and go, and loads
of lumber and building material were
delivered there.
The neighborhood became frantic.
Everybody just knew the old lady
was repairing the barn so that II
would pass muster as a safe struc-
ture, yet stand as an affront of the
esthetic of the fastidious neigh
bors. But not a thing could be done
until the court action was called.
At last came the day for the trial.
To the surprise of all, it was dis
missed on her motion. That restored
the order of destruction and there
was an immediate rush on the part
of authorities to put the barn out
of business before a new legal move
could be started.
When they got there and went in
side, they found standing there a
tiny, but wholly charming bungalow
thing of beauty and a JOY for
ever. All that remained to be done
was to zeal away the old walls and
everything was lovely.
NOW, why would a woman do
that?' Mr.. Mentrum inquired.
Well be the goat-why would
she?

BY JAMES A. BALES

Since Ewes time women have kept
men biting at all sorts of sells.
That's by way of advance comment
on the narrative of how an old lady
at Livingston put over a joke on her
neighbors on the city council of Liv-
ingston, its fire chief-and even +.
S. Mentrum, state fire marshal, who
tells the story.
This old lady owned a most UNI
slightly barn in the middle of a new
residence addition that prided itself on
being quite exclusive and upon the
architectural beauty of its bungalows
and garages.
And the old lady refused to sell
her lots; she refused to move the
barn and rather pointedly told one
or two of the neighborhood commit
tees where they could go. So there!
Well, the barn was such an eye
sore, such a ramshackle assemblage
of broken boards and timbers that
the residence addition folk got the
local fire chief to condemn it as a
nuisance and a fire trap.
That didn't scare the old lady a
bit. She appealed to the city council
and announced her intention of car
rying the battle right through to the
court of the United States if
necessary. The war went on and the
state fire marshal was called. He
also gave an adverse verdict on the
old barn and it's destruction was
again ordered.
Then the old lady went to court
and the filing of her action acted as
a temporary stay on the order of

Covington, Ga., April 5.-Prosecu- tion of John s. Williams, Jasper county farmer accused of peonage and murder of 13 negroes who at tempted to escape from his virtual slavery, was opened this morning with an eloquent arraignment by A. M. Brand, assistant solicitor general, who opened for the state

 Outside the courtroom, vast crowd of disappointed farmers and villager', some of them from a great distance, were unable to gain admittance when the trial was called.
 The court has 100 men, mostly farmers, on hand from which the jury will be picked. Forty witnesses have been summoned by the state. Clyde Manning, a bulky negro, who confessed the murder of negroes who threatened to "squeal" on Williams, is the chief witness for the prose- cution.

Jerusalem Far From Being Restored to the Glory That Has Been

The view of Jerusalem as one leaves the Garden of Gethsemane draws the heart with sympathy. The walls rise severely above bare slopes where nothing grows, for 1t is outside of the city proper that Biblical prophecies of the desolation of Jerusalem seem to be fulfilled.
 Today the city stands midway be- tween the horrors of the Turkish regime and the promised good of the British mandatory rule. Nothing has been done as yet in a public way to beautify the city. North and west the houses struggle outside the walls; on the south forbidding slopes border the road to Bethlehem, and on the east Hes the terrible Valley of Jehosha. phat-a valley of dry bones, William D.

lot of mystery still cllngs to the Chinese in New York, despite metro poltan influences. Often the whole personnel of a Chinese restaurant or laundry will change overnight. and you can't find out why or where the others vanished to. It may be they gamble for them.
 Not long ago a man who had been patronizing Chinese laundry so long they didn't give him a check for his wash called for his shirts and collars and found one of those strange over night changes had taken place. No one knew him, and his check was de- manded. He raved and argued in that exasperatingly futile way so well known to one who has tried to talk to a Chinaman.
 Finally he had an inspiration, took off his collar and showed the China man the laundry mark in their own hieroglyphics. He got his bundle.
