Williams news., 1922-09-15

There seems to be a good chance that the troublesome water problem may be worked out without the necessity of leyying additional taxes. The Town Council is now confer ing with the Santa Fe Railway Company and the Saginaw & Manistee Lumber Company in an effort to get united action on the water question. The old water company which owned the Williams Water System be- fore it became municipality owned, had nearly completed arrangements with the Santa Fe whereby the Santa Fe Rail way Go. would contract to take a specified amount of water each year at specified prlce on the condition that a dam with a depth of 100 feet were erected to impound a sufficient amount of water. A bonding company offered to supply the necessary funds and take the Santa Fe water payments in payment for their bonds. This would leave the city water for it's own use at no cost. After twenty years the town would own the dam and the revenue from the Santa Fe would then go into the city treasury. Ii some such plan as this could be put thru the town of Williams would have it's greatest prob lem solved.

SCHOOL ELECTION
 ENCOURAGING

The results of the school
 bond election held last Satur- day are very encouraging to those who are anxious to see
 Williams progress. While the
 bond issue was defeated it ap- pears that the defeat was net due to opposition to high school but to the fear that the call would not include all of the original District No. 2. Senti- ment seems to favor the orga- nization of a high school dis trict that will embrace all of the districts within the original bounds of school district No. 2. While it has been the custom of the assessor, Tax Collector, County Superintendent of Schools and Supervisors to treat Williams School District No. 7 as including the districts that have been organized within the original bounds of the district many voters found reason to doubt if the country districts can be held or taxed as a part of District No. 2. This doubt of the legality of including the country districts as a part of District No. 2 was the chief contributing feature in the de feat of the bonds. The sentl- ment of the voters seems to be strongly in favor of a Union High School district. It ap- pears. that the organization ot such a district would gain the end sought by all who want to see the New High School Build ing-that of bringing in all of the original territory covered by distrirt No. 2 into one high school district.
 Further action awaits court decision on the legality of tax ing farmers in neighboring dis tricts to support the high school of District No. 2-

EDDY LAYING SHARE
 FOR HUNGRY KiDDIES

Many an ode has been written to the little brown hen," but according to Miss z. Fay Fowler, of Boise, Idaho, director of Near East Relief, it re- mains for the kiddies of Armenia to sing a new praise to South Idaho's "Biddy," so patriotic in war and pro- ductive in peace, for South Idaho's "Biddy" is playing an up-to-the-minute role as Lady Bountiful" to Armenia s orphans in their crisis of peril and need.
 In the Nampa section and other dis. tricts, contribution boxes in the form of empty egg cases have been placed in some schools. To "Biddy" has been assigned the job of filling these with her eggs. These offerings are brought to the schools by the pupils and when a case has been filled 1t is turned over to Near East Relief.

ALLEN TO RETURN
 TO HORROR SCENE
Relief and Mission Field Hero Wants to Rebuild Wreck
 After M0sIem Raids.

In the hope of restoring his old mis- sion buildings and resuming his form CT work, from which he was forced to flee over the bodies of his murdered friends at the height of the Moham- medans' orgy of massacre, pillage and burn ing, Dr. E. T. Allen, professor of Biblical history at Whitman College, Walla Walla, may endeavor to return to the Near East during the coming summer. For the last four years or so he has been aiding as a speaker in the constructive program of the Near East Relief.
 Dr. Allen, one of the foremost Amer ican authorities and speakers on the Near East situation, and as such, much sought after and widely known throughout the Northwest, was, with his wife, for 13 years a foremost figure in the Presbyterian missionary field of Persia.
 During the last several months of his stay in that country, he was al mostly daily face to face with death, once being rescued after the Turks had built a gallows upon which to hang him.
 AS the pioneer representative of Near East Relief in that district, he chung to his task of sheltering and protecting Christians fleeing before the hordes of Islam; reviving the starving and dying, saving the wound ed from fields of battle and massacre, and rescuing Christian women and girls from the lustful clutches of the Moslems, until finally deported with 86,O00 others. Less than half these people survived the forced marches through hundreds of miles of desert heat, practically without food and with little water.
 His old mission buildings were sys- tematically footed and wrecked, and he and Mrs. Allen. now residing with him at Walla Walla, lost nearly all their possessions and prized personal effects along with them All forces and factions in the Near East, the Turks included, are now protecting supplies and workers of Near East Relief.

MONTANA SHEEP MEN TO BE
TAUGHT WOOL GRADING

The highest production record ever
reached by a Montana COW was re-
Gently attained by Grace Koningen,
a Holstein COW, bred and owned by
Montana State college at Bozeman.
In one years time she produced 49,
CAT pounds of milk containing 931.4
pounds Of butter fat, which is equiva-
lent to 1,164.2 pounds of butter 80
per cent fat.
This is the second time that Grace
Koningen has taken state honors for
production. In 1920 she stepped into
first place with record of rs, 1853
pounds of milk and 1917 pounds of
butter fat. A few months later the
honors went to Helen Uilkje Calamity
at the government farm on the Hunt
ley project. Grace Koningen's latest
feat, however, surpasses the record of
the government COW by approximate
ly 1000 pounds of milk and 100
pounds of butter fat.
Grace Koningen is a granddaughter
OF Nora Koningen, one of the four
original cows of the State college
Holstefn herd. She is about nine and
a half years of age and is of excep-
tionally fine type and of good size,
weighing when in milking condition
more than 1000 pounds.
Nora Koningen End, her dam, is
half sister to Spring Brook Bess
Burke, the only COW in the world to
nave five daughters with an average
If more than 1000 pounds of butter
n year.
Grace Koningen will be the star
attraction of the State college live
stock exhibit at the state fair at
Helena this fall. The college live
stock exhibit will require four cars
or shipment and will include high |
lass animals from the dairy, Def,
lorse, sheep and hog departments.

LIEUT.. C. C. THOMAS FIRST
TO GIVE HIS LIFE 1M WAR

Glassford had choice of two things.
He could slow down and allow the
Shaw's knife-like bow to strike the
Aquitania amidships, thus saving the
Shaw but taking great chances on
sinking the transport. Ore he could
speed up and just get to the aqui-
tania's bow, allowing the great vessel
to strike the shell-like destroyer.
This might sink the Shaw, but it
would save the Aquitania and her
precious cargo of doughboys.
G1assford chose the latter course.
The Shaw was cut in two. Ninety
feet of her bow sank like plummet.
Wonderful seamanship was displayed
here. The crippled engines were raced
full speed astern. The crew used
planks to shore up the torn bulk
heads and the Shaw backed safely
into an English port, where she was
rebuilt and again placed in commits
sion.

stroyers has been named in honor of

NOTABLE PROGRESS REPORTED
FOR BETTER-SIRES MOVEMENT

There is every reason to believe
that the replacement of scrub and
grade sires by purebreds is on the III
crease. Reports received from county
agents in various parts of the coun-
try show that the Better Sires-Bet-
ter Stock" movement is having no
ticeable effect. A recent statement
by M. G.. Lewis, county agent OF
Rockbridge county, Va, is typical OF
a large number.
1.-THE purebred bull movement
says Mr.. Lewis, "is progressing rap
idly. Since January /, 16 farmers
have disposed of grade or scrub bulls
and are using purebred registered
bulls instead. On the other hand,
there are no less than SO men in the
county who still persist in holding
out against the progress and develop
ment of the livestock interests of the
county by keeping inferior grade or
scrub bulls. I have a list OF So
owners of such bulls. Some of these
men have grades that are fairly good
while others have scrubs
that are the worst kind of disgrace
to the community and to the county.
'The cost of a good registered bull
is so small now that 1t is mystery
why any farmer will keep anything |
else. Many records have been kept |
during the last few years to prove
out the actual value of a purebred |
bull in dollars and cents"
Some of these actual figures we're
obtained recently by the department
Of agriculture through an inquiry /
sent out to more than 500 farmers
throughout the United States. These
men gave 1t as their opinion that in
LII kinds of farm stock purebreds
lave an earning power more than 40
,er cent better than common stock.
t is noteworthy that in the case of
larry cattle, whose productive power
,an be easily measured, purebreds
we're considered to be 47.8 per cent
,etter than common cows. The low
st percentage given for any kind of
took was 36,8 per cent.

FIRST SHORTHAND
WRITER in STATE
w. 1. LIPPINCOTT REPORTED DE-
BATE AT FIRST CONSTITU-
TIONAL CONVENTION.

Judge w. /. Lippincott of Butte at
tended the meeting of the Pioneers
society of Montana held at Missoula
last week and on motion of Hon. Tom
McTague of Deer Lodge, seconded by
William Coleman of the same city,
was elected unanimously an honorary
member of the Pioneers society. This
honor was we'll deserved, as 1t will be
remembered by all the old timers that
Judge W. l. Lippingcott was the first
stenographer in the territory of Mon
tana and reported all of the records,
speeches and debates of the constitu-
tiona1 convention of 1884; and that
he transcribed them from the stenog-
raphic notes in his own handwriting,
the completed record being still on
file in the office of the secretary of
state at Helena. 1t might be of his
toricaI interest to note that Judge
Lippingcott brought to the territory
of Montana the first typewriter in
1885; it was Remington brought
by bull train at a cost of 1926 for Joe
Rosenthal, whom Judge Lippincott
had assured that the machine would
be found a faultless speller. After
trying it out Mr.. Rosenthal declared
it had no signs of familiarity with
anything Noah Webster ever wrote,
so he turned it back to Judge Lippin-
colt, who later sold it to Judge De-
Witt, later of the supreme court, and
he in turn sold it IL years later to J.
Ross Clark for use in the bank of w.
A. Clark & Brother, where it long did
yeoman service.
For two years, from 1883 to 1885,
Judge Lippincott was commissioned
by the Historical society to travel
about the state and take down remin-
iscences of the early day residents for
the archives of the organization. |

VOLUNTEERS TO HELP
ENFORCE AUTOMOBILE
LICENSE REGULATIONS

Secretary of State Charles T.
Stewart, state registrar of automo-
biles, has number of persons who
favor strict law enforcement who are
willing to assist the secretary in the
collection of annual automobile IL
censes, as has been revealed in a
number of letters received at his Of
flee in recent mails One writer
from White Sulphur Springs raises
the question as to whether or not an
automobile can run forever on a Ii
cense plate issued from another
state.
Another writer from the northeast
ern corner of the state tells of certain
farmers in that vicinity borrowing
license plates from their neighbors
when they drive their cars to town,
while others drive their cars without
license plates. In this connection he
submits list of names of those who
he claims are indulging in that prac-
tfce. Some, he says, when they re-
ceive two tags, sell one to a friend,
and that in that manner one set of
licenses plates serves for two cars.
Still another writer from the east
ern part of the state tells of having
seen from eight to ten trucks in a
row hauling wheat to elevators, none
OF the trucks displaying license
plates, he said. This writer also tells
Secretary Stewart that If he would
send special collector into that ter
ritory at least $1,000 could be col
ected within week from delinquent
automobile license taxpayers.
