Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-11-11

Where is Verl Neal, stranger in
Great Falls, a quiet, unassuning
veteran of the world war, who was
slightly gassed overseas? This is the
question that has been uppermost in
the mind Of his bride of a year since
Thursday morning, when she saw him
last. 1t is the problem that is occu-
plying the attention of Deputy Sheriff
Herbert Locke, who has been work
ing on the case since it was brought
to the attention of Sheriff Bob Gordon
Friday.
Neal, who is % years old. came to
Great Falls in company with his wife
last Sunday. For some time past
they had been conducting the restau-
rant service at the Custer Inn, Grass
Range hotel operated by Mrs. Meals
mother, Mrs. Wight. Neal came here
in search Of employment and since
Sunday they have been staying at the
f. /. Carey home, 2116 First avenue
north.
Mrs. Neal, who is somewhat younger
than her husband, says that she does
not think his being gassed caused nm
to become temporarily demented,
which was suggested as a possibility
by Mrs. Carey. He is described as a
quiet sort of a fellow, very attentive
TO his wife. They have had no do
nestle trouble and Mrs. Neal is sure
that he has not left her of his W
free will. She has no solution to
offer. She only knows that he is gone.
home in their Chevrolet car Thursday
morning about 10 O'Clock for the
downtown district. Neal told his wife
that he was going to a little town
near here where he thought he might
get work. He did not say what town.
He said he would telephone if he
found it would be impossible to return
in time for lunch. Before they parted
she reminded him that he had been
tentatively promised a job at the
Great Northern shops, and that it
would be well to go to the yards Fri

USE ELECTRICAL CURRENT
TO GENERATE STEAM

USE ELECTRICAL --- Lvo
MONTREAL.-The natural order is
being reversed in a large plant in
Montreal, where electricity is being
used for generating steam needed for
paper manufacturing, instead of the
usual process of making electricity
from steam. This is possible because
locally the price of coal happens to be
higher than the equivalent quantity of
electricity.
The work is being done in the plant
Of the Belgo-Canadian Pulp and Pa
per Co., which is making steam in a
20, 000-kilowatt electric steam genera
tor. The efficiency of the installation
is SO per cent of the theoretical. Thus
10000 pounds of water are evaporated
into steam per hour with apparatus
that cost only about $4,000 to install.
This installation cost is very much
less than would have been the cost
of a coal burning plant of the same
steam capacity and it is believed that
$4,000 a month is being saved by the
system, which replaces one which
would require rs tons Of coal day to
operate.

AFRICA WASTING HUGE
LATENT WATER POWER

NEW YORK-Afr:ca lie far less ad-
vaneed along ELECTRICAL lines than
mos. people even suspect, according
to Herbert H. Markham, who has just
completed a years trip through that
continent.
Mr. Markham made a thorough in
vestigation of the possibilities of Afri-
ca in behalf of a big electric company
of London and of New York.
Although there is a considerable
amount of embarrassed water power
in Africa, the great distance over
which transmission would have to be
carried kills the possibility of utiliz-
ing it, Mr. Markham said THE Vic
toria falls would be capable of gener-
ating hundreds of thousands of horse
power. Yet, it would be an extremely
expensive proposition to transmit this
energy from the source to points even
within a few hundred miles from the
falls"

VETS IN GERMANY FEAR
GENERAL PROHIBITION

BERLIN.-The liquor interests of
Germany are alarmed at the possibili-
ty of general prohibition in Germany
owing to the governments promises
to the Preparations commission for a
reduction in unnecessary consump-
ton and the application Of all foodre-
sources to feeding the population and
TO the growing strength of the prohi
bitiOn movement.
A meeting of the brewing and dis
tilling interests at the federal econo-
mic council was informed that prohi-
bition was on the march and that it
was only question of time before a
general prohibition edict would be
issued.
The wet interests thereupon decided
to form a defensive organization and
wage an energetic campaign to ward
off their doom.

DON'T BAN SHORT SKIRTS;
FLAPPERS TATTOO KNEES

BALTIMORE.-The blue-eyed, bob
bed, golden-haired flapper has hit
upon a novel decoration She has her
knees tattooed with lovely butterflies.
The tattoo fad is spreading rapidly
among the f1appers. There is a pro-
fessional tattooer in Baltimore who
declares he is kept busy doing butter
fly designs on dimpled knees.
The MISUNDERSTANDING fad is a
new departure says the tattooer. He
predicts a surprise for the bathing
beaches when the 1923 season opens.
But the solitary butterfly or pair of
EN-, startling as it may seem to some,
is scorned by Agnes Kelly, %. She is
having her body completely covered
with designs. When the job is done
she will be one of the worlds three
women who are fully frescoed.

AFRICAN ELEPHANT.

"One of the reasons that we've kept
away from people," said the African
elephant, lis because SO many men in
the past have shot various members of
our family To be sure, we have gone
after them. We've destroyed trees
when we wanted some of the young
saplings.
But we can be friendly; yes, there
are some who are very friendly, and
when we have been tanned, as some
of our cousins have in the zoos and
circuses, we've been as faithful as
could be-
1--WE knew we were safe and our
keepers were loved by us. Yes, many
of our cousins have been tame.
''But where it is wild, as it is where
we are, we do not know always Whetf-
er to trust men or not
Every day it is so pleasant to toss
grass on ones back and to take nap
in the cool of the day.
"It is really the heat of the day,
but as we are taking nap We call
it the cool of the day."
I'm not so sure about that" said
another African Elephant. Its dur
ing the heat of the day that we take
our rest. And though it might be cool
for us If we rested and didn't move
and kept cool, we all get together and
are so near each other that we don't
keep so very cool.
ITS a nice rest, though"
YES" said the African Elephant
who had spoken first, Il suppose you
are right. 1t is not so cooling either
when two of the young and frisky ele-
plants start playing games about US.
"They don't like to take that noon
time nap They prefer to stay awake
and play.
"And when we fan ourselves with
our great ears it is really making our
selves hotter, though we fool ourselves
that it's not.
For we get so hot working hard to
make ourselves cool"
All the other elephants laughed and
said they partly agreed. "But," they
all added, 1--WE couldn't bear to think
of not trying to make ourselves cool
even if it did make us hotteri"
"Our little friends, the egrets are
very good to us. And we are friendly
indeed with them" said the first At
rican Elephant
'And why wouldn't we be friendly
with them?" asked the second Afri-
can Elephant.
"They surely do us a great deal of
good" the first African Elephant said
but we, too, are nice to them, and
it pleases them to think that we allow
them to sit on our great backs and
that we will never hurt them.
"They say that when we come
around the swamps all the bird mes
sengers are busy telling the egrets
that we've come.
''Then all the egrets come and call
on u.s.
EYES," said the second African Ele
plant, ''they do. And they have such
a pleasant way of sitting where they

can. We have no chairs to offer them,
and they wouldn't like chairs anyway,
so they sit on our backs and are quite
contented.
"And there they eat all the little
bugs and insects which would bite us
and behave very rudeiy were it not
for the egrets.
''And when the egrets are not on
our backs we cool ourselves with wa
ter which we gather in our trunks
from the swamp and then throw over
our backs.
"But the little egrets do good work
for u.s. and we are kind to them, for
they like the meals they have; they
care immensely for the bugs which
come upon US.
I'D say it was fair all around. Yes,
quite, quite fair

the first African Elephant said. In
fact I do say that it is fair. | say
so, and / thoroughly believe what /
