Little Bit Of Thought
For the Deep Thinker

All the great men Of this nation,
Started out with but one guide.
they all read the Holy Bible,
Kept it always by their side.
There are men Of education,
Men of talent and of brain,
Who make no future preparation
Otherwise than earthly gain.
If the twentieth century children
See nothing but vice and moon
We will have to search our coun-
try
For to find president soon.
All the little loved ones toddle
In our footsteps day by day.
Let us be to them examples
Instead Of leading them astray.
A few words should be sufficient
To a wise man or fool.
Help to make our city better
By attending Sunday School.
&C. S. Vinson.

P. W. Dueck TO Rep
resent kevin Review

P. w. Dueck, president Of the
New Era OH and Gas company,
returned to Spokane Tuesday af-
ter several days spent here as
sisting in the installation of gas
for Kevin use this winter. Mr..
Dueck. before returning was able
to witness the gas burning in
several Of the business places,
and went away rejoicing over the
fact that it was meeting with the
approval of everyone. The bus
mess places of Frank Brown and
M. C. Green were the first to in
stall the new method Of heating
and lighting and by the latter
part Of this week most everyone
in town will be connected up.
This is indeed a great thing for
Kevin, and there are not many
towns the size Of this that can
boast Of burning natural gas, and
it is bound to bring to our town
new enterprises Of every nature.
Before returning to Spokane
Mr.. Dueck made arrangements
to be the representative of the
Review in Spokane and will solic-
it subscribers for this growing
paper in that vicinity.

President New Era
Oil & Gas Loud in
Praise for Kelvin Future

Now that the hour has struck
where the town of Kevin is sup
piled with natural gas, Mr.. P.
w. Dueck, general manager of
the New Era Oil & Gas company
expresses his appreciation of not
only the cordial treatment ex-
tended to him personally while
here, but a real heart felt con-
graduation to Kevin Of being the
first town of its size having nat
ural gas installed. Your town
has got all the stamina of future
growth, your resources are prac-
tically limitless and last but not
least, your spirit is the right one.
In that you look for further i'm
rrovements Of pressing nature.
He further states: "It shall be
a pleasure to me to give you sug-
ges tions in your contemplated
water supply, and other improve
ments now under serious consid-
Grafton. One great need is the
building of a dozen or two small
cottages, and any one who would
have the capital to invest in the
building of them surely would
get a splendid return on his in
vestment. Now that you have
natural gas, and are privileged
with its real conviences, you
want to let the world know not
only about its merits, but what
wonderful prospects there are
for business enterprises. A hard
ware store, a bakery, clothing
store, departmental and drug
store, and a good doctor would
no doubt do well, having the op-
portunity to grow up wi Il com-
nunity, whose pep, honesty and
can hardly be question

" esIeyan College
Needs Your Support

| The Montana Wesleyan College
is your college. Why? 1t is a
Christian College, under the in
direct supervision of the Metho-
dist and Presbyterian churches.
The Montana Wesleyan College
is situated at Helena in the dis
trict of the North Montana con-
ference and it is our duty as
members Of the North Montana
conference to support the school.
Wesleyan needs financial help,
because. unlike other schools, the
students of Montana Wesleyan
college pay through their tuition
fees only about half the expenses
of the college. The rest of the
college expenses must be met by
donations from individuals and
the church. But have we as
members of the church done our
duty toward Wesleyan?
No! We have not.
Last year Montana Wesleyan
college received from the N. M.
conference, which includes over
half of Montana, only $40.
If every church member in the
N. M. conference gave 81 the
amount would be over $4,000;
but you are not asked to give
lollar; give so cents or even 25
cents, it will be appreciated. The
Montana Wesleyan college is
worthy of your help and it needs
all the assistance you can give it.
There is no other college in Mon
tana that has such ideas or gives
as much help to it's pupils.
People Of Kevin, won't you

lege?

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
BY MRS. HARLAND II. ALLEN
SEWING MACHINE
NEEDLES
lQ. 1sa2. Harland II. AIIen.l }

More housewives have trouble with
sewing-machlne needles than with any
other part OF the machine. This Is
generally because they go about buy
ing the needles in the wrong way.
When purchasing sewing-machine
needles you should always remember
that the different makes of sewing
machines call for needles of different
shapes and sizes. so that a needle
that Is suited for one type OF ma
chine Will not do satisfactory work en-
another. Whenever possible, there
fore, you should insist on getting
needles OF a reliable make, with the
name OF the machine stamped right
on the shank OF the needle.
You will not always be able to do
this, however. because nearly all fac
tories put out many machines of the
same model under different names.
These names may be put on TO suit
the different ideas OF the merchants
handling the machines In various
towns. and so will vary in different
communities. You can see that under
these conditions, unless you do get
needle marked with the factory's
name, your chance OF securing the
proper needle for your machine is go
ing to be very great
To meet this difficulty, a number of
the needle manufacturers have classi-
fed all the different makes of ma
chimes = nearly eight thousand Of
them-and are putting out needle out
fits containing needles for all types
of them.
The most important point about
which you should be concerned In buy
ing sewing-machine needles is to get
the correct size. II Is even worse to
use needle that is too small. than
one too large. For with a larger
needle there is less wear on the
thread when sewing. You see, every
time a stitch is made the thread has to
pass backward and forward through
the eye Of the needle several times.
On power machines they always use
a special needle, larger Mt the eye
than In the blade, to Offset this fric-
ton.
Other points to watch for In a per-
feet needle are:
That the eye Is carefully polished,
80 that there are no rough edges to
cut the thread.
That the point be smooth and
sharp.
That the needle has a well-fiattened
place on one side of the shank. so
that 1t will fit perfectly into the ma
chine bar.

CHOOSING WALL PAPER

"I'll never buy busy wall paper
again." walled a young housekeeper.
AS soon as saw her room l knew
what she meant. The occupant was
kept busy working out squares and
diamonds, or counting some ever
recurring unit of design. To be sick
for any length of time in that room
would be a constant torture to the
eye.
We could easily avoid such mis-
takes II only we could get the habit
of thinking of our walls as back
grounds instead of as themselves
supplying the decorations for the
room. and keep them as soft and neu-
trail as possible.
1t is not necessary to buy expensive
paper to have attractive walls for
rooms, but 1t is good plan to famil-
iarize yourself with the best In order
to choose the same effect In cheaper
grades.
The most satisfactory room I ever
saw was papered with mottled gray
blue wrapping paper-and did you
know that the very cheapest papers
are often put on wrong side out?
Styles change in wall paper. and
new designs are appearing every sea-
son, but of one thing we are certain
the hideous cabbage rose and realistic
peony varieties are "out." The pref
erence is all for plain effects.
or these the stipple tones are very
popular. That is probably because
the methods Of coloring the paper give
a great diversity OF tones. and at the
same time the effect subtly expressed
Is one of distance. rest and quiet.
Many Of these papers are given a
pressed texture before the soft grays
and ecrus are stippled on, so that
they resemble grass cloth.
Similar to the stipples are the two
tone papers having small all-over de-
signs and stripes done In two tones
of some soft, neutral color, such as a
shadow design of softest gray on
background Of ivory or tan on ecru.
Striped papers come under the gen.
eral head Of plain papers. and they
have the advantage over perfectly
plain paper In the fact that imperfec-
tions in the walls are never so readily.

fresh water is carried to the drinking

which also provides water for hosing

Probably the greatest labor-saver In
a dairy barn Is the overhead carrier
system, by which the feed Is carried
to the animals, and the manure re-
moved with but one handling. 1t will
be noted by the floor plan that the
carrier system leads to the feed room
between the two hollow tile silos. By
this method the ensilage Is thrown
down, loaded into the carrier and
transported directly to the hangers.

that are used to give the cows a bal
