TRUANT OFFICER
MERE FICUREHEAD

With the almost universal adoption
of the school-bus begins n long period
of restfulness for the country truant
officer whose duty Is to check up on
school attendance. Rainy days, long
distances, and muddy roads no longer
make the district school look like =
deserted village.
Used now by more than L, 900 con-
solidated schools. the school-bus sys-
tenn is n simple and practical one.
Every morning the bus. with driver
provided by the school. drives up be-
fore each farm house where there are
children of school age. Tho sound of
the horn is the signal for the children
to come rushing out OF the house, and
they are on their way to school.
Stormy weather is now feeble excuse
for not attending. More and more. tho
truant officer OF these consolids ted
schools is coming to lead tho life of

General use of Dodge Brothers cars

DEAL FOR FLOREK MAR
KET is FINALLY CLOSED

A deal which has been pending be-
tween f. S. Florek and ID. Colgan for
the purchase by the latter of the
Central Cash Meat Market, was fin
ally consumated Tuesday, Mr.. Col
gan taking over the business yester-
day morning. The deal also includes
the transfer Of the property wherein
the business is located and the use of
the Florek slaughterhouse facilities,
it being Mr.. Colgan's intention to
slaughter his own meat. The new
proprietor was formerly engaged in
the meat business at Whitehall. this
state, still owning the market which
is now being operated by other par
ties under lease. From spring until
November Mr.. Colgan operated the
Purity market in Great Falls.
In speaking of his plans for the
business here, Mr.. Colgan stated that
it was his intention to give the city as
good a market as the trade would
afford, and that patrons Of the mar
ket would in the future be able to
procure there all the supplies usually
carried by a meat market, some ar
ticles of which it has not been the
custom of the markets TO stock in the
past.
Mr.. Colgan moved his family from
Great Falls to Belt some two weeks
ago.
