FORMER CHINOOK MAN
CANNOT PRACTICE Law
Supreme Court Refuses to Re-Instate
r. F.. O'Keefe of Chinook, Dis
barred From State Practice
In 1918.

The supreme court acted finally
Monday in the adoption of the follow
ing opinion per curium:
"On October Z, 1918, petitioner R.
E. O'Keefe was debarred from the
practice of law in this state. (55 Mont.
200, ITS Pac. 5O5). He has petitioned
for reinstatement, and a careful in
vestigation and review of his case has
ben made by us so as to avoid any
possible injustice. The attorney gen.
eral was directed to make full investi-
cation and report as to protests
against petitioners reinstatement, and
his moral fitness to practice law,
which has been done, and a complete
report made and filed herein by the
attorney general. We have given the
petitioner every consideration, real
izing his sad plight, and that to this
court alone may he appeal for relief.
Our disposition is forgiving, but we
have a solemn duty to the profession
and the public which must be per-
formed without regard to feelings of
sympathy. The petitioner has been
given every opportunity.
"Once before he was up for disbar-
ment (49 Mont. 1869, 142 Pac. 638),
and in that instance this court dealt
most leniently with him, ~suspending
him from practice for 30 days for an
offense justifying his disbarment. We
do not believe he is possessed of the
moral conceptions requisite for the
practice of law, and his petition is,
therefore, denied"

SULPHUR CLAIMED PREVENTA-
TIVE FOR FLU" AND FEVER

"Put a small amount of sulphur in
each shoe every morning and goodbye
Influenza"
This is the remedy offered to the
people Of Atlanta by a Georgia doctor
who has been practicing in Dixie for
forty years and who went thru the
yellow fever epidemic in New Orleans
in 1897 unscathed.
His account of the successful trials
of the remedy, as told by a friend Of
the editor of the Monticello, wis.,
Messenger, is as follows:
"In the early sos l moved to Louisi-
n to practice medicine, and remain
ed in the town where l first located
for nearly 20 year. The town in
which l located was in the southwest
ern portion of the state and had large
sugar and lumber industries, therefore
l met many travelling men, and one
in particular l remember from Men,
phis, Tenn, told me evening that
he had nursed yellow fever and chol-
era in all it's stages, had assisted in
burying the dead, and that the only
precaution he ever took was to sprink-
lie sulphur in his shoes every morning
during the epidemic and hat he had
never contracted the disease; further
more, everyone he told about it and
who tried it, not a single one died Of
the disease.
"In 1897 we had an epidemic of yell
low fever, and remembering what this
gentleman had told me, l tried it, not
withstanding I had but little conf
dence in it. l shall never regret hav-
ing tried it, for l escaped the fever,
although l nursed it in all it's stages
during the entire epidemic. Now, what
has this to do with influenza? 1t
has the same to do with it that it had
to do with yellow fever and cholera
kill the germ. ] believe that when
the system is thoroughly saturated
with the sulphur as suggested, it will
prevent the germs of any disease
from attacking the system. There is
no doubt that sulphur will penetrate
the system readily, for when one takes
sulphur in the system and has a sill
e dollar in his pocket, it will be
turned to black, caused by the sui
phurated hydrogen.
With flu in evidence in a number of
surrounding towns, it might not be a
bad idea for our people to take a
chance on this proposition. 1t is in
expensive and a little sulphur would
no doubt be god for the most of US.
Certainly it will do no harm.

ing truck gets along with hard rub
Der but the fast moving vehicle must
have the added cushion Of air between
it's rim and the pavement to save it
from destruction.
What is happening to a cement,
brick or macadam surface which has
no c%ushioning wearing surface when
the terrific hammering which it re-
ceives by passing vehicles is kept up
year after year?
1t is eventually crystallized and
shattered the same as would be the
modern automobile without it's cush-
ion of tires.
In order to ave our highways which
have cost the taxpayers hundreds of
millibns of dollars, it is now recog-
nized generally that in building these
roads or in saving the roads which
are already built it is essential that
whatever the base of their construc-
ton may be, it should be protected
with a cushioned wearing surface to
save it from eventual destruction.

SPRING IS HERE; GEESE
MARBLES PROCLAIM IT
Marble Game On Every Dry Lot and
Geese Flying North Harbingers
of First Warm Days of the
New Spring.

Everywhere spring is in the air!
Even the old broken down plug that
has somehow managed to pull through
the last four months feels it in his
bones and is beginning to perk up
his ear and snort about the fields.
But the first real signs of spring in
Glasgow were evidenced more than a
week ago when the school boys were
seen gathered here and there over
the sidewalks playing marbles. Com
les, classics and potteries were the
main attraction in almost every lot
and block.
But the small boy is not always the
harbinger of spring. The small girl
,, usually plays her part in proclaiming
the advent of this season. She did at
least in Glasgow this year for when
brother dug out his last years sack
of miggies, sister went down in the
basement or up in the attic and hunt
ed up her jumping rope and immedi-
atley began to skip! skip! skip! AL
ready she has tried everything in the
are of rope jumping from rocking the
cradle to double dutch.

REJECTED SUIIUR KILLS
TEACHER AND HIMSELF

Helen Mura, % year old school
teacher at the North Star school near
Fort Morgan, Colorado, was shot and
killed Monday by Margarine Stabio,
an Italian sutton, &c years old.
The tragedy occurred in the presence
Of 20 pupils.
Stabio then turned the gun on him
self and fell dead beside the body of
the girl.
Stabio's affections for the girl were
not returned, it is said. He drove to

then entered and shot the teacher
down and ended his own life.

That the public is awakening to the

by the trip hammer effect of the

reduce the amount of the license for
vehicles using pneumatic tires.

Movement Started to Put

100000 Ex-Service Men in Jobs
To put 700, 900 ex-soldiers into jobs

objective, according to an announce
ment from national headquarters. To
accomplish this, a nationwide drive
will be launched from local posts in
every city and town in the country on

jobs and putting ar end to a situation
which Hanford MacNider, Legion COM
mander, has called "the greatest crisis
in the Legion's history"
Civic organization from Maine to
California have been asked to swing
into line to back up the Legion and
make a concerted effort which will be
felt in all sections of the country. By
stimulating industry, by pushing en-

velopment, by speeding up public util-
ity enterprises, roadbuilding, paving,
dredging, truck gardening reforesta-
ton and reclamation, and by encour-
aging the "back-to-the-farm" move
ment, the Legion hopes to break the
labor slump which has kept worthy
men out of work and caused wide
spread distress. Each city will be d.
vided into regions, each under it's own
post and employment committee, with
a general committee coordinating the
efforts of all.
