BANK CHECKS FOR SAFETY

An apt illustration OF the dan
gers OF using large sums OF cash,
instead Of bank checks. in the
transaction OF business or person
al financial matters. has just been
furnished by a recent hold-up in
Chicago.
A Chicagoan had just given Q
woman receipt for $34j cash
she delivered in part payment on
her home when an armed man APP
pcared on the scene. stole the
money, locked the couple in a
room and departed. Had a check
been used in the transaction. the
robber would have got nothing
for his trouble and the worst the
plundcred people would have suf-
fered would have been slight in
convenience.
AT any time. but in these days
particularly, people should
careful OF their money. With the
excellent facilities which banks
afford, there is no reason for TAX
ing great risks. Though one may
not have checking account, in
drawing considerable money
from a savings bank with intent
to hand it over to another per-
son, it would be well to ask for
a check.
The obligation to pay will be
as completely discharged by en-
dorsing the check to order of the
creditor as though currency wer,
given him. Also, if thief man
ages to get hold of it, he will not
get the money.
There is nothing intricate
about handling checks and they
should be used by everyone who
is able to do SO. Carelessness in
handling money is in large de
gree responsible for the success
that thieves have in making
"hauls" that might easily be
avoided.
The banks will be glad to help
protect the money of the people
if the people will let them-they
supply safeguards against losses
such as cited above that should
not he overlooked Bank check,
make for safety in the highest de
gree.

THE HAND OF A MUSICIAN

TN THE hand of person who Is
= talented in music, the skin is very
smooth and soft. This indicates n re-
fined, sensitive nature, with great
dislike for anything that is coarse or
unreiined. As musician, of either sex,
must pay attention to details, the
fingers must be long in proportion TO
the rest of the hand.
In the hands of many musicians. the
thumb. ut its outer angle or joint. is
quite pointed. This is held TO show a
good idea of time or rhythm. A sense
OF tune is sometimes seen in q point
or protuberance on the outside of the
thumb, below the joint
The mount of Venus should be fairly
strong and high, TO show melody, and
this characteristic is seen also In n
good mount of Saturn at the base of
the middle finger. When there are a
good mount of Apollo at the base OF
the third or ring finger. and a good
mount of the moon near the wrist, a
decided sense of harmony is shown.

A POLITICAL CONGRESS

Secretary Mellon will have the
backing of all unbiased citizens in
his refusal TO permit the treasury
department to be disrupted by
congressman hunting jobs for
their political henchmen. The re-
fusal OF the secretary to turn out
of office one hundred Democratic
employees for no better reason
than that they are Democrats
strikes a note too seldom heard in
public administration.
Mr.. Mellon gave voice to a
high standard of public conduct
when he declared that The af-
fairs of the treasury are of too
great Importance TO allow of in
reference to its proper conduct
through the introduction of petty
politics"
The incident is an important
one III an open warfare now de
veloping between q vociferous
group of political congressman
and certain executive depart
ments. 1t adds evidence to sup
port the nearly universal convic-
ton that the sixty-seventh CON
gress is ruled by political mania.
and, as body. is almost totally
unconscious OF the plain dictates
of public welfare.
Few will agree with Secretary
of War Weeks that the deteriora-
ton OF congress is due in great
measure to the development OF
the primary system. There will
be, however. little issue with his
assertion that congress is now at
lower obb OF influence and in
capacity than for many years.
On many important issues that
demanded eober Judgment and

sound thinking the sixty-seventh
congress has anDarently been mo-
tivated by no higher impulse
than the desire to catch votes.
Facing the necessity OF cam
paigning for reelection this fall.
many nernbcrs OF tlfa house and
senate have trifled with the pub
lie business in a manner wholly
unworthy OF the high Offices

The whole attitude of congress
as a body to the question OF the
soldiers bonus is case in point.
Whatever citizens Individually
may think OF the bonus. they arc
nearly unanimous OF the opinion
that congress is treating il mere
~ as means of catching votes.
II congress had been really sim
cere. the bonus measure would
have been settled long ago. The
long-drawn-out handling OF the
question is an instance OF polit-
ical buncombc almost without
counterpart in national expert
ence.
When Mr.. Mellon warns con
gress that the business OF the
United States Treasury must not

iticians, he strikes a responsive

on 1920 Acres
by Three Men

Leases totaling 1920 acres have
been taken in township "a. n l
east. by Eugene Cobb of Lewistown.
J.. F. Rutherford and J. W. Speer Of
Great Falls, according to an announce
ment made Sunday.
The leases are all east anil south Of
the Troy-Sweetgrass drilling on section
2S-34-1 W. and developments in that
location and the rigging I'D of the Cali
fornia company on section 1884, "
are understood to have been respou-
sible for the action of the three men
in taking the extensive acreage to the
east.
Included in the acrcage involved in
the deals. which nave been made with
several different lease holders in the
district. are state leases on both school
sections of the township. While the
leases were taken primarily with the
idea of turning them as an Investment.
they will be held for some time. await
ing further developments in this part
of the field. Mr.. Cobb said.
Some of the big companies operating
in the fields are reported to have re-
Gently taken leases il this eastern part
of the field and he California early
obtained holdings here.

WATER SUPPLY
AT RIGS AIDED
BY RAIN, HOPE
Rainfall About at Point to Re-
plenish Storage, Jack
son Says.

Recent rains had not Saturday ap-
preciably added TO the water reserves
Of the northern fields. although the
precipitation. if continued Sunday as in
Great Falls, would be helpful, accord
ing to l.. p. Jackson. who returned to
Great Falls from Kelvin Sunday noon.
Mr.. Jackson drove through the rain
from Kelvin. the trip taking II hours,
all of the time through heavy mud.
The rains were heavier near Great
Falls than in the field. he said. and
the dryness of the ground absorbed
all the moisture. 1t had become so
saturated. however. that additional
rain would probably colleNt in the
reservoirs.
The water situation in many parts OF
the field has become a difficult one to
solve. The Louis we'll has been keep
ing a truck busy hauling water for its
operations and is now drawing on a
reservoir near Kelvin. where it has
sufficient water to carry it to pro-
duction.
Mr.. Jackson reported that the No. .
well of the Gordon Campbell-kev
syndicate on section $3.50 W is now
rugged up and ready to spud in.
There is considerable activity in the
field despite the fact that the rain
caused the belts to slip to such an ex-
tent that operations have been
slightly delayed.

NORTH FIELD
LeWiStOWn Men on Visit to Pro-
ducing Wells of the
State.

Billings. July 9.-Officers and d.
'%rectors of the Lewistown Oil and Re-
company. which recently acquired
"a controlling interest in the Montana
Refining company, are in Billings for a
few days. inspecting the local plant
and visiting the %neighboring oil fields Of
Montana, in which the company is ex-
.tensively interested.
Frank B. Book of Detroit. president
of the company. with his associates
from Detroit. st. Louis and New York.
came to Billings overland. travelling in
the cars of the Wills-St. Claire Motor
of which Mr.. Book is treas
iurer.
The party will leave Sunday for a
trip through the Cat Creek. Winnett
and Lewstown territory. They will ex-
tend their trip to the Kelvin and Sun
burst districts. where two wells are
beng drilled in. and to Browning, where
a well is almost completed. The com
.pany expects to prove the new fields
adjacent to the Canadian boundary line.
1t is probable that another refinery to
handle oil from the northwest oil fields
will be built at some point as yet un-
determined.
The refinery and oil interests con-
|trolled by the Lewistown Oil and Re
|finery company make it unquestion-
ably the largest independent oil COM
Ipany in the northwest. it is stated.
The visiting officers and directors ex-
pressed themselves greatly impressed
with the possibilities of Montana as an
oil producing state.
The Lewistown refinery is now being
run at full capacity. while the business
of the Billings refinery is steady in
Icreasing and it is now supplying 26 of
the so filling stations in and about
Billings, which shows the demand for
and popularity of the high grade prod
uct of the refinery. The fact that the
ILewistown Oil and Refining company
has acquired control of the Montana
Refining company and also is cooper
ating with the Weowna Refining com
|pany at Winnett. gives the company a
strong position in the refining and dis
trihution of petroleum products in the
northwest. the officers point out.
A. f. OBrien. formerly of the Mid
west Oil company at Casper, has been
secured as manager of the Billings
plant. He has established offices in
the Hart-Albin building. A. r. Hines.
of Pasadena. has recently joined the
organization and will have charge of
the field work.
