THIRTY DAY MARRIAGE rs THE
NEWEST POWDER RIVER STUNT

Enter the thirty day. marriage.
Jay Gould, employed in the vicin-
ity of Piniele, obtained marriage
license here during holiday week, but
unfortunately the justice of the peace
had died, no successor had been APP
pointed and there was no clergyman
available. ~
Gould and his sweetheart wanted
to be spliced, SO the would-be bride
groom journeyed to Boyes to find
someone who could perform the cere-
mony. The nearest to such a per-
sonage was G. M. Bryan, a notary
public, who is said to have advised
Gould he could perform a thirty
day" marriage.
Returning to Broadus, Gould
rounded up his bride-to-be and they
rode to Boyes on horseback. Of what
the purported ceremony consisted is
not known, but Bryan is said to have
accepted SIS as fee and the couple
went on their way rejoicing.
Later, however, someone clipped
off, the fact that Gould's marriage
was not genuine. Gould thereupon
brought his bride to Broadus and ap-
peared before Justice of the Peace
Lewis, who tied the knot in the most
approved and legal fashion.

thoroughly 1t works all the souring

MAKES THE DEAF HEAR
Remarkable Invention Enables the
Deaf to Hear All Sounds Clearly


Everyone who is troubled with
deafness in any form will be interest
ed in the announcement of the Dicto-
graph Products Corporation, Suite
ABBOT, No. 220 West 42nd Street,
New York, that they have at last
perfected a device which will enable
every one whose auditory nerve is
not entirely destroyed, to hear as per-
fectly as one whose hearing is nor
NAL. To test 1t thoroughly they sent
1t to number of people who had
been deaf for years and they report
most gratifying results. Many state
that they hear the slightest sound
with perfect ease and that their nat
ural hearing has been greatly i'm
proved. The manufacturers are SO
proud of their achievement and so
confident that every deaf person will
be amazed and delighted with it, that
they offer to send it to anyone by pre-
paid parcel post on ten days free
trial. They do not ship C. o. D.. nor
do they require any deposit, but send
1t entirely at their own risk and ex-
pense, allowing the user ten full days
to try it and decide whether they
want to keep it or not. AS there is
no obligation whatever, everyone
who is troubled with deafness in any
form should take advantage of this
liberal free trial offer. Just send
them your name and address for des-
criptiye literature and free trial re-

Not so at Great Falls. Each year
the dealers have had their show.
Use City Market
This year permission has been Sc
cured from the city council for the
use of the city market building, the
only building of it's kind in the state.
This will allow for the exhibit of
over 40 motor cars and by utiliza-
tion of the ground floor will permit
25 accessory dealers to have space,
making the 1928 far larger and
better show than any previous auto
motive exhibition.
A contract approximating $1,000
for decorations has been let to Kauf-
man and Huber, Great Falls decora-
tors and scenic artists for the reno
walton of the market building to fit
the show needs. This firm has had
the auto show contract several years
in the past.
Breitenstein is Manager
A. J. Breitenstein, manager of the
Hotel Rainbow at Great Falls, and
formerly secretary of the Great Falls
Commercial club and secretary of the
Montana state fair, is manager of the
show for the eighth time. l.. e. Jones,
secretary of the Great Falls CONNER
cia1 club, and formerly of Glasgow,
is secretary of the dealers associa-
ton, and as both men have offices
in the Hotel Rainbow, The Rainbow
will be headquarters of the auto
show until the dates of the show.
The Auto Show dance, the outstand-
ing social function of the week, which
this year comes on st. Patrick's day,
will be held March II at The Rain
bow.
During the past two years the auto
show has been held at the Palm room
of the Hotel Rainbow, but this year
the scope of the show is so large that
the greatest available show space,
that at the city market, was secured.
Once previously successful show
has been held at the city market.
The first auto show was held in 1916
at the palm room of the Hotel Rain
bow and since then the city market
building, the Mckinney Motor Com
pany's show room and building, and
the present quarters of the BUTLER
Nash company, have been used to
stage the shows.
Many Activities
Auto show week, March 1917, will
be week of activities in Great Falls.
Following designation of the dates of
auto show week, several other organ
lzations of the state set their dates

In reply to the report of the spe-

en- voters, Mayor Cooking stated that
the city attorney has framed an
amendment to the dance hall ordin-
ance, and while he is heartily in ia
vor of the amendment, it is up to
the aldermen to both present and
pass the new measure.
According to the mayor, the
amendment will provide for paid in
spector and in compliance with the
demands of the women's league, he
stated that If the amendment passes

to inspect and have police supervision
over all public dance halls.
Committees Report
The league committee, composed
of Mrs. B. K. Wheeler, Mrs. Clinch,
Mrs. Stevens and Mrs. Rose Bresna-
han, submitted the following report
to the league:
ITO the League of Women Voters OF
Silver Bow county:
"Your committee called on Mayor
Cooking relative to enforcement of
the dance hall ordinance.
Mayor Cooking said that the
dance hall ordinance as it now stands
is uncomfortable; in his words it
has mo teeth That he begged the
council when they passed the ordin-
ance to include salaried dance hall
inspector, preferably a woman, since
it is In the women's dressing rooms
that some of the graver evils of the
dance halls exist and to those dress
ing rooms male officers cannot have
access. Without such salaried wom-
an inspector the mayor frankly stated
that it was impossible to have the
dance hall ordinance enforced.
when your committee asked the
mayor why the chief of police and the
police force did not enforce the dance
hall ordinance, the mayor answered
that the metropolitan police law made.
it impossible for either the mayor or
the chief of police to secure the en-
forcement of this or any other law
because the police hid behind the pro-
visions of the metropolitan police law.
The mayor went at some length into
the difficulties of Chief of Police
Murphy in handling his men. Your
committee asked that the chief of
police be called to the mayors office
so that he might give his version of
the workings of the metropolitan law.
The mayor did not see fit to call the
chief of police.
