The humor and naive qualities of

skill, yet without occasioning the
slightest offense.
The spectator is delighted with the

hospitality of these people of Bat

leads them to prosperity in spite of
the first intention of J. Rufus Wal

of great human interest.

"Humoresque" won him universal
praise, has surpassed that achieve

MONTANA STUNTS
SUCCEED THRILLS
ADVISORY BOARD DECIDES TO
FEATURE STATE INDUS
TRIES AT THE FAIR

Helana, March Who is the bes
broncho buster in Montana? Who
is the best relay rider? The clever
est and swiftest sheep shearer? What
two miners are the best team of
hard rock guys? What is the name
of the sheepman who owns the best
trained sheep dog in the state?
The answer to these and score
of other questions is an open bet at
the present time, but if the plans of
the new state fair advisory board
are carried out, as decided upon at
its first meeting in Helena recently,
the answers will be given at the Mon
tana State Fair next fall, September
$3.50 inclusive, and the acclaimed
champions will be recognized with
substantial cash prizes.
The state fair executives believe
that auto polo, vaudeville and sim
liar attractions have lost their hold
on the public and so have decided to
stage whole grist of events in which
the participants will be Montana
folk.
Besides fixing the date, which was
based on the judgment of exhibitors,
county agents and county advisory
board members, and outlining the
program in a general way, the state
fair advisory board adopted a reso-
luton calling upon the state utili-
ties commission to reduce the street
car fare between Helena and the
grounds from 25 cents each way to
25 cents for the round trip.
The members of the advisory board
all of whom were present, are Jas.
Griffin of Chinook, John G. Howe of
C. N. Arnett of Boze-
nan, Augustus Vaux of Sidney, Jas. I

that number of members were pre-
vented from attending by sickness
81 ladies attended the Civic League
meeting at the Erickson hotel Tues

Mrs. George w. Berry of Glasgow
district woman's club president, was
present and gave very interesting
talk, spending most of her time tell
ing about her work at Ft. Harrison

said of the 155 soldiers being cared
for there, 55 were tubercular and
nearly all of them are incurable. She
also described in detail the Christ
mas of the soldiers, and told Of the
way the soldiers had decorated the
various wards. Mrs. Berry stated
that at the close of the war it was
thought that the service of the Red
Gross to the soldiers was nearly over,
but that that was only the beginning,
and it is now thought that the peak
of such service will net be reached
until 1929. The members of the local
club were particularly interested in
her account, since they have adopted
two of the Ft Harrison officers and
from time to time will send them
boxes and remembrances. At the con-
clusion of Ms. Berry's talk, Mrs Cook
read a letter from one of the boys
adopted by the Civic League.

cial conditions that would result in
producing better men and women.
He was particularly anxious that a
swimming pool be constructed. He
also mentioned that he came in con-
tact with many of the farmers and
found that their attitude toward Wolf
Point was very friendly.
Mrs. Cook, speaking as president |
of the Woman's club, the Civic
League, gave an able talk. She said
the women took pleasure in attend
ing meetings of this kind as they /
were anxious to keep in touch with
community affairs and fit themselves
to be helpful factors in working out
community problems. She mention
ed a few of the things the Civic
League people hoped to accomplish
this season. One was the improve

1t seems that we can't get away
from the hue and cry of partisan ha-
tired and insincerity for failure of the
Nation to become a party to the
League of Nations, notwithstanding
the fact that action upon that particu-
lar line was approved by the voice
of more than seven-million majority
OF the citizens of the United States.
We can't quite understand just why
their action should be continuously
referred to as blind, partisan hatred.
The Allies we are accused of crimi-
nally deserving were allowed to go
fer months, yes stretching into years,
with their heads in a moose drawn to
the choking point by those Who
sought to execute, while we sat SUI
pinely by, solely for the purpose, as
: it seems to us, of singing a great
battle song later on; "He kept Us
Out of War" But, as a matter of
course, all of that has nothing to do
with the position of America today.
Whatever the people desire, under
ordinary circumstances, should be
given them. A child of course should
not be given fire to play with simply
becaue it wants it, but when a ma
jority of grown-ups fairly express
themselves as being in favor of GER
tain definite policies and measures
ii would seem that their wishes
should be adhered to and If they ex-
press decided disapproval of certain
policies and measures their wishes
should likewise be taken into con-
sideration. Why call it partisan
hate If they elect TO 'dlsapprove OF
what we stand for and desire?
