OIL MEN COLD-BLOODED, CLAIM

Oil men are a eold-blooded lot.
They have hearts of stone. With
them, the milk of human kindness
curdled in the process of dragging 4
reluctant fortune from the tickle
strata.
Some time & Kenneth Frazer OF
the smelter took a few minutes off to
seek a fortune in the oil industry and
forthwith took over Il block of acreage
on the Bears Den structure for de-
velopment. He and his associates
purchased a standard rig for opera
tions and started equipment moving
toward the location in the field. The
field lies in northern Liberty county.
and Joplin is the nearest shipping point
from the railway.
A week or 80 ago. Frazer sent a
carload of coal to Joplin for freighting
to the location. He followed ii a few
days later.
As he stepped from the train, a
glance up the street showed a good
pile Of coal in front of one house. A
second house had the coal neatly
piled at the back door. Further down
the street an old piano box was
pressed into service as an emergency
coal bin. There were piles of coal

Too many drinks, q taxi driver and a

brought misfortune TO Gust Gunter. a
Great Northern laborer, who Thursday
night reported to the police that he
had been mysterious robbed of his saw

vaguely described those whom he said

he could not remember them distinctly
because of in~toxication.
Gunter told Captain of Police Fred
IOeher that he, III company with an
other man, went to IL house on the

taxi driver brought II woman to the
place who joined Gunter in his LIQUID
refreshments. Gunter searched his

went for his roll which he had panned

CANCER WEEK
TOBE OBSERVED
in GREAT FALLS
Health Offices Will Promote
Idea; Cooperation of Civic
Bodies Asked.

Great Falls and Cascade county will
participate in the observance of ma
tional Cancer week, November l2-lS,
was announced Thursday by DR.. G. A.
Fuson, health officer, who stated that
he and his assistants would give their
utmost cooperation in putting the pur-
poses Of the week before the public.
Though tentative plans only have
been made as yet, an effort to arrange
with all civic organizations TO have a
speaker present at their regular weekly
meetings to discuss the cancer problem,
DIR. Fuson said.
Cancer Dangerous
1T is Of the utmost Importance that
the public should realize the necessity
of taking steps to control the cancer
menace said DIR. Fuson. He explained
that cancer mortality is higher than
hat of any other known disease even
exceeding that of tuberculosis or pneu-
monia.
Stating that just what cancer is is
not known, DR.. Fuson declared that it
is durable. There are many who are
not aware of this, he said, and assert
ed that for this reason such an OBJ
servance as that of Cancer week is
highly important. Education on the
cancer question is absolutely essential
TO an effective health program, he be-
licves. Cancer may be cured if taken
in it's early stages and it can be cured
only by surgery. Medicine in its treat
ment is worse than useless, merely ag-
gravating the disease he said.
Age Limit Important
Cancer is rarely found in persons
under 30 years Of age and is much
more prevalent after the age of 40,
DIR. Fuson explained. 1t is more prev
alent among women than among men,
he stated. He advises all persons who
have sores that refuse to heal or moles
that show signs Of soreness, to con-
suit their physicians without delay.
Any abnormality occurring, among
women after middle life should be given
immediate attention, DIR. Fuson said.
One feature of Cancer week will be
q cancer clinic. to be held at the health
offices on an afternoon to be announced
later. At this time all persons who
wish information on cancer or who
desire examination will be asked to
call.

Mayor Opposes Naming Aldermen
 To City Jobs

Mayor Fred Atwater has taken a public stand on the suggested ap- pointment of aldermen to municipal jobs. He does not favor the proposal. and is emphatically in opposition to anything that would remove the alder men from the duties to which they were chosen by the electorate.
 At a caucus of the aldermen, prior to last nights council meeting, the mayor expressly stated his wishes on the subject.
 'It is absolutely against my will and policy that any aldermen be ap- pointed to any municipal job,' he told the city fathers. Every alderman was elected by the people to serve on the Board of Aldermen as representa- tive of his district. He should repre- sent his district for the fullterm to which he was appointed He has been selected a lawmaker, and not as the overseer of some other salary pay ing political job"
 Three members of the Board of Aldermen previously had been sug- gested as candidates for city jobs.

City Fathers
 Want Nickel
 Trolley Fare

City fathers have again taken a nubIic- They have instructed City Attorney John A. Cornell to take proper steps for the retention of the five cent fare or the restoration of iitney service here. Spontaneous dis Satisfaction has greeted the announce ment of the Connecticut Company of the contemplated increase of the five cent fare to eight and ten cents. No less than three protests, in the form of resolutions, were introduced and acted upon by aldermen last night.
 Alderman John Y. Caldwell in a resolution that was referred to MT. Cornell with power to act, empowered the city attorD9y to institute necessary proceedings to retain the five cent fare here or restore jitney service.
 Alderman David W. Price in reso- lution provided for the appointment of d special commission, composed of the mayor and two aldermen, to ap- pear before the Public Utilities Com mission in an effort to retain the five cent fare here.
 Alderman Eugene Kelley was even more drastic in his proposal. His resolution called for an intensive in- yestigation of the comparative earn inEs of one week by the Connecticut Company under the old and the new fares, Should favorable decision be rendered after the investigation, he suggested that the commission take steps to insure the protection of the riding public.
 City Attorney Cornell now has the resolution under consideration.

Pope Conspicuous For Intellectuality
 Says Cardinal

Paris, Feb. T-Cardinal Dougherty. arcnbishop of Philadelphia and Car dinal Begin, archbishop of Quebec, reached Havre this forenoon on the steamship LaLorraine from New York after a stormy voyage and arrived in Paris this afternoon. They will leave tonight for Rome, where they will ar rive Thursday night, in ample time for the coronation of Pope Plus XXI They had hardly expected on sailing that they would reach Rome in time for the election of the new pope.
 Soon after his arrival in Paris Car dinal Doug'herty telegraphed the new pontiff the congratulations and good wishes of the clergy and people Of Philadelphia He expressed also the pleasure Of American Cath olics fin general at the choice Of the new pope. Tn a statement later Cardinal Dough erty said:
 "The election of the archbishop of Milan a few months after his eleva- ton to the cardinalate, is similar to the election of Benedict XIV. a short time after hi reception of the red hat. Pope Beendict's election was clearly a special Providence, and no doubt the same will be found true of Plus XI. He Is conspicuous for his intel lectuality and learning. He has had experience in diplomacy, and the holy see chose him for it's first nuncio to the newly liberated and united Polish nation"

asked for the official sanction of the aldermen.
 Veness Uncovers Facts.
 It is said that four of the aldermen had knowledge of the intent of the measure and were prepared to take a stand in it's favor. but the majority of the members were in total ignorance of it's importance. President Veness began an oral probe into the resolu- tion and quickly uncovered facts that placed an entirely different light on the matter.
 A brief recess was ordered by Mayor Atwater for a consideration of the resolution. Attorney Thomas M. Gull momber of tne board of education, who were present, quickly marshalled their strength behind President Veness. MT. Cullinan outlined the il- legality of the measure in it's present form, and was largely insrrum ental in laying bare its true nature to the al- dermen.
 Turn Back Resolution. Through the lone efforts of Pres ident Veness, the resolution was de- layed long enough for the aldermen to become fully conVersant with its purpose, and influenced by his bitter denunciation of the movement they finally relegated it to the ordinance committee.
 Alderman Lavery, who heads this committee, stated after the meeting that, before a report is returned to the council, represenatives of the health, school and appropriation discuss its merits before the commit tee

Through the vigilance of Preside ent Alfred B. Veness, an attempt to gain aldermanic sanction for the Health department control of the dental clin- ic was frustrated last night Unsus- pecung the deep significance of the measure, the aldermen were prepar- ed to vote in approval when Presid ent Veness uncovered the uRerior motive, bitterly opposed the passage of the resolution and finally maneuvered 1t into the ordinance committees hands whereSt will repose safely until 1t has been carefully considered by the Board of Education and the Board of Apportionment.
 Lavery Introduces Resolution
 Alderman William J. Lavery's in troduction of the resolution was an unexpected climax to the controversy between the Health and School Boards for control of the dental hy giene work in the schools. After many discussions and inter-depart- mental arguments. the Board of Ap- poruonment was mutually accepted as the intermediary to whom the argu- ments of both sides were presented The decision of the board which was to be accepted without question, has not yet been rendered.
 The entire controversy was on a pearances, when Alderman Lavery took the floor towards the close ot last nights meeting, and introduced resolution for President William L. Zepp of the Health Commissioners The resolution provided that the den- tai clinic be left as at present Cir the control of the Health Board) and
