FRENCH COLOR PROVIDED
FOR LEGION CONVENTION

New Orleans.-Ned Orleans is pre-
pairing to cast aside it's veneer of mod
ernism and to re-establish the atmos-
phere of continental Europe during the
American Legion national convention
here October 1920. Entertainment
plans for the 100000 legionnaires and
visitors expected at the gathering in
clude features typical of the south and
of the cosmopolitanism encountered
overseas.
One of the leading events of the
program is French carnival night, to
be directed by a number of French So
cieties whose histories date back to
colonial days. The legionnaires will
be guests at three carnival balls, SIM
liar to those held during the famous
Mardi Gras celebrations. There will
be the customary kings and queens
with their picturesque courts and re-
tainers. The veterans who desire in
formality will be able to participate
in the street dances to be held on
three public squares.
Delegates to the convention sessions
which will be held in the morning, will
meet literally "down on the levee." A
large covered pier, nearly 1000 feet

AT EPWORTH LEAGUE NEXT
SUNDAY

If knew you and you knew me,
How little trouble there would be,
We pass each other on the street,
But just come out and let US meet
\ At Epworth League next Sunday.
Each one intends to do what's fair,
And treat his neighbor on the square.
But he may not quite understand
Why don't you take him by the hand
At Epworth League next Sunday.
This world is such busy place
And we must hustle in the race,
For social hours some are not free
The six week days, but all should be
At Epworth League next Sunday.
We have an interest in our town,
The dear old place must not go down,
We want to push good things along
And we can help some if we're strong
At Epworth League next Sunday.
Don't knock and kick and slam and
slap
At everybody on the map,
But push and pull and boost and boom
And use up all the standing room
At Epworth League next Sunday

long and 400 feet wide, astride the
Mississippi levee, will be used as the
convention meeting place. 1t will seat
$4,000 delegates and visitors. One-half
will be devoted to the convention pro-
per and the other half to telephone
and concession booths, committee
rooms and ticket validating offices.
The interior will be decorated with
flags of all allied powers, legion en-
blems and banners, and palm trees.
The business streets will be illumin-
ated by $4,000 electric bulbs and their
names changed to designations more
appropriate to the Legion gathering.
A Court of Honor of the Nations"
will be established in ten blocks of
the principal streets, with correspond
ing flage and banners of all allied
powers. Insignia of all divisions in
the American army will be suspended
across the "streets of the Divisions" )"

Admiral Cole, commanding the special
service squadron, six destroyers and 12

New Orleans during the convention
and will form the representations of
the United States. Invitations to send
ships have bene forwarded through the

TAXPAYER WILL HAVE
HIS SAY NOVEMBER Z

Helena, Sept. 28.-Joseph D. Scan
Ian, who has arrived in Helena to
assume charge of the state haadquar-
ters of the Republican central commit
tee of which he is chairman, declared
at the outset Of his campaign work
that never in the history of Montana
have the prospects for Republican
victory appeared as bright as they
now seem.
1.-TWO years ago we thought the race
would be close and we counted our
selves lucky if we won," said Chair
man Scanlan. "The vote showed that
we underestimated the Republican
strength in the state. This year we
know that strength and with the splen-
did lineup of candidates for both ma
tional and state offices that we are
able to present as result of the pri-
mary election. we know we will win.
However, it is not the time for any
Republican to cease in his efforts to
make his party's victory the biggest
in the history of Montana.
'The Republican party is presenting
a constructive program of taxation
reform to equalize the burden, so that
every form of wealth shall pay its
just and proper share. The party is
pledged to an economical and efficient
administration of state affairs. The
start made in two years has con-
vinced the voters of the administra-
tion's sincerity of purpose. The vic
tory will be complete in November.
conferences with Republicans from
all over the state show that the party
now is in more harmonious accord
than it ever has been. These confer
ences increase my belief in the final
success in November"
"The opposition is seeking to cloud
issues and to draw the attention of
the taxpaying voter from the real is
sue which is equal taxation for all
forms of wealth. The taxpayer will
not be fooled. l feel that the day when
the Montana taxpayer could be hood
winked is gone. The taxpayer is now
looking after his own interests. He
is studying the party records. He is
fair and willing to pay his just share,
but no more"
The Glasgow courier., 1922-09-29
MONTANA IS BACKING
COP. ADMINISTRATION

Helena, Sept. 2S.-The Republican
national administration has the back
ing of the people. Especially that por-
ton of the people that lives in Mon
tana. No more outstanding result of
the recent state primary is apparent
than the support of Montanans for the
Harding administration.
Congressman Carl W. Riddick, sue
cessful candidate for the United States
senatorial nomination, made his cam
paign upon straight declaration that
he was a consistent supporter of the
administration. The congressman
pledged himself to continue that sup
port as a member of the United
States senate. The people nominated
him from field of five, thus express
sing their confidence in the national
administration and showing determi-
nation to continue it's support. =
Congressman Riddick, who is back
in the state in the interests of his
campaign, is continuing along the
same lines as in the primary campaign.
He is standing squarely behind the
administration and it's policies. Re-
Gently in speaking at a conference of
Republicans, Mr.. Riddick declared that
the results of the primary showed that
Montana is safely within the Republi-
can ranks. He further declared that
the national administration is looking
for a Republican senator from this
state, in addition to the two Republi-
can members of the house. He points
out that two years is a short space
in which to carry out platform pledges
but declares that a considerable start
has been made in that direction and
with support for President Harding
elected in the various states, the pres
ent administration will be in shape to
put through every principle for which
Republicans stand and make part
of their creed.
Congressman Riddick declared that
he was much pleased with the sincere
expressions of support he had re-
ceived from those who for one reason
or another were lined up with other
candidates in the primary. He be-
lieves these expressions indicate GER
tain Republican victory in November
and that the candidates of that party
will be successful all along the line.

ratified by vote of the people OF
the state at the coming general cleo
tion.
THE BALLOT A HOUSEHOLD
UTENSIL

"She looketh we'll to the ways OF
her household" is as true of women
today as it was in Solomon's time. The
changes Of time vary out methods but
not our motives.
A generation ago the mother could
remain at home and know that the
water was sanitary, the milk pure, the
eggs fresh, the meat wholesome, the
bread clean and her canned foods un-
adulterated.
She taught her children at her knee,
they played about the door. and, when
they were old enough to work, she con-
trolled the conditions of their labor.
Now industry has become special
ICED. One by one. these activities have
left the home and gone out into the
world.
Water comes through city pipes;
milk is left in bottle at the door;
bread is baked by those who do not
expect to eat it; food comes in boxes
and in cans from the four corners of
the earth. The children follow the
work into the factories and are di-
rected-not by mothers, but by over
seers.
How, in this .day, can the good wife
"look we'll to the ways of her house.
hold" except by using the ballot?
To assure justice, economy, safety,
quality and cleanliness, thousand and
one regulations are laid about these
products and activities. Regulations
are made by the legislative bodies and
enforced by the executive officers who
are elected by and responsible to the
people.
Only by being a voter, by helping
to choose those who shall rule, can the
housewife of today "look we'll to the
ways of her household" The ballot
has become our most valuable house
hold utensil.
We would consider her a shiftless
housewife and careless mother who
would refuse or neglect to use the
broom or the scrub brush when they
were needed. She is exactly as shift
less and careless a housewife and
motner VINO refuses or neglects to use
the ballot-the effective tool of today.
Government - setting the environ
ment of both home and business-may
make or break US. It is a serious mat
ter which party we choose. 1t makes
big difference by which policies we
are controlled.
That housewife who wants her home
to prosper cannot afford to sit idle
while a political campaign is in pro-
gress. Not only should she study to
use her own ballot wisely, but she
should stir up her neighbors that their
combined housewifely and motherly
care shall follow the interests of the
home and the welfare of the family
into the government, where these are
now administered.
