POSTAL RECEIPTS
SHOW SMALL LOSS
Figure for First Quarter 81 ,601
Under Total for Last
Year.
Reported by III. b. Lake & Co.
NEW YORK STOCKS.

Great Falls postal receipts for the
quarter ending March 81 showed de-
crease Of $1,601.55, or approximately
three and one-half per cent. compared
with the corresponding quarter last
year, Postmaster William Cluston, said
Tuesday. The receipts for the winter
quarter last year were $40, ,737.1S, for
this year $44, 1853.
1T is difficult to express an opinion
as to the reason for the decrease .
Mr.. Cluston said. apparently the
financial depression of the country has
nothing to do with it. for right when
the majority Of people are crying hard
times our postal receipts are the heav-
lest. Our postal deposits have in
creased steadily since the first of the
year and our treasury certificate sale
has been very good.
II cannot think of anything at this
time that stimulated the postal busi-
ness last year. Business isn't slack
now and in some departments we are
buster than usual for this time of
year."
The report showed an increase of
S3O.524 in postal savings deposits over
the deposits held by the office at the
first Of the year. The sale of treas
ury certificates since January l has
amounted to $44,42O, the report
showed.

NUTRITION CLASS
MAKING PROGRESS
Demonstration Agent Says I'm
provement Apparent in
Children's Health.

Its the food" explained Miss
Alberta Borthwick, home demonstration
agent for Cascade county, relative to
the physical standard attained by
youngsters in her nutrition classes.
Many Of the children who were below
normal weight for their height last fall
are now up to normal and are much
healthier than when they joined the
classes, she said.
The classes, which are conducted in
Belt, Stockett and Sand Coulee, have
been very successful she said Tues
day. 1t is only question in most cases
of the children's eating the proper
food at the proper time, she said. The
same thing holds true with the chill
dren who are over weight for their
height. Often fat children have super
normal appetites and don't get enough
often are that way because they abuse
their stomachs with improper food, is
the opinion of Miss Borthwick.
Many of the children have learned
to eat healthful vegetables which they
thought they didn't like and are en-
joying them. Others have added more
milk and cereals to their meals and
have eliminated tea and coffee, which
sometimes interfere with their eating
sufficient food at meal time, Miss
Borthwick said.
About a third Of the children in the
classes are in normal physical condi-
tion now and all have made material
gains toward normalcy with the ex-
ception Of few who have been i'll or
who have physical defects which do
not leave them free to gain. Record
charts are kept for the members of the
classes and the charts aid them by re-
minding them daily to eat proper kind
of food and to eat regularly.

CUSTER HEARING
| STARTED AGAINST
CLERK Of PONDERA
Judge Carroll of Butte Presid
ing Over Trial of James
T. Green.
Special to The Tribune.

Conrad, April 1.-THE hearing of
custer proceedings against James L.
Green, clerk of Pondera county, was
begun in the district court here Mon
day before Judge William Il. Carroll
of Butte. The case is being tried with
out jury, the supreme court having
overruled the decision of Judge Car
roll granting the defendant a jury trial
some time ago.
Green is charged with refusal and
neglect to perform the duties of his
office. The complaint alleges that he
refused to file a full statement as to
the financial condition of the coun-
to file copy of the assessment book
as prescribed by law, that he had col
lected legal fees and had failed to re-
cord them in the reception book, and
that he had paid the county treasurer
less than the fees collected.
The state, represented by County
Attorney w. L. Bullock. and Judge L.
l.. Galloway of Great Falls, opened the
case with the testimony of Earl r.
Aiken, chairman of the board of coun-
ty commissioners, to the effect that
Green had failed to perform his dut-
les, and the testimony of deputy to
the effect that certain fees had been
collected and had not been properly ac-
counted for.
John Clark Of Great Falls, who aud
tied the books of the office. and E. ?.
Patten of the Pondera Abstract COM
pany testified as to the condition of
the books.
The prosecution will probably close
its main case Wednesday and the trial
is expected to consume at least two
days more.

resenting the defendant.
