NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY

kfldare's horse had not moved from the spot where Blaze had dropped tho rein. He held his head erect eari cxpectant.
 Blaze whistled so low that Mer. codes barely heard 1t. Instantly the horse came to him and allowed the girl to stroke his head. Blaze lifted Basilio into the empty saddle.
 Hes safe up there" he assured her. My Man likes children
 The hoof-beat of a horse being driven at furious speed interrupted them. Mercedes got to her feet and took Basiho out of the saddle.
 This will be my brother Estcban."
 The oncoming horse splashed through the water, covering them with mist of silver spray. On his back sat Esteban, thin, wiry mar row-hippcd youth. He leaped to the ground and, staring inimically at Blaze, launched into a trade of ex- citable Spanish. The girl saw that he was upset and tried to restrain him.
 "Callar!" she cried Hush! Have you gone mad?"
 Blaze had fair smattering of Spanish and of the Universally under- stood Mexican idioms which the Basques had adopted, but he was un- able to follow the rapid words Este ban continued to shower upon his sister. He did catch the reiterated e agua (water), and 'cequia madre (mother-ditch). It meant only one TynC T Tai tv. danger.
 When her brother had finished, Mercedes tried to tell him that Blaze was stranger and to explain how he had helped Basilio and her. Este ban thanked Blaze with some show of gratitude. He swung into his saddle and caught the child up beside him. Mercedes got on Capitan's back. With Esteban leading the burro, they started off.

THE
 Boy . THAT
 FAILED

LATTER had planned a brilliant II future fer him. Mothers high hopes for his success were sup ported ably by her everlasting faith in him.
 1 But the boy was a bitter disap. pointment. He was being outdis- tanced steadily by his schoolmates, was dull, listless all the time. "felt sick" most of the time, never had
 "pep" for play nor ambition for hisfuture.
 Father had about given him up. Poor mothers heartstrings were nearing the breaking point. Evi- dently. it was not to be.
 Then an old friend of the family "a man successful in every sense
 -came to the boy'srescue. Today,
 the father is proud of the boy who
 is indeed a joy to his mother.
 It was simply a case of poor di.
 gestion, sluggish liver and consti- patton gradually dulling the senses and poisoning the system.
 Knowing from experience that Beecham's Pills were harmless asS we'll as efficient, the old friend suggested them. They made the boy well .-as they have hosts of other children, and grown.ups; too. who suffered from like dis l orders.

SERIES OF HEAVY
RAINS SOAK SOIL

After seeding was practically all
done and at exactly the opportune
time, this section of Montana was
soaked by a series of heavy rains
that fell Wednesday afternoon and
evening and this evening. The un-
|seasonably hot weather of last Fri
day and Saturday brought only a
stiff wind storm, but the sultry, low
barometer weather of the early days
of this week terminated in a rather
sudden storm that rolled up from the
southwest, much after the manner of
the terrific rains of 1921. 1t proved
to be the first of series. The rain
gauge at Oldtown registered 1.29
inches but it is difficult to believe
that there was not much more. The
rain Wednesday fell in sheets, not
drops. Streets, yards and gardens
were soon converted into rivers and
lakes.
The rains of this evening were
heavy but steady with very little
wind, and heaps of water fell. 1t is
surely in the million dollar" class
and boosts the country closer to an
other bumper crdp. Nothing was
hurting for moisture but cultivated
fields and the range were ready for
it, and will respond as only Montana
soil, cooperating with water, can.

SHOWER" 0VERTAKES
PARTY in WOODS

Local showers of all sorts have
been the order of the day recently,
and one of the most enjoyable took
place in the woods lest Sunday morn
ing when a number of the teachers
as guests of Miss Grace Dullenty and
Miss Fousek, gathered for a picnic
breakfast. The party was convey
ed to the picnic grounds by Al Appel
gren, whose car was so frustrated by
the occasion that it developed case
of nerves and it was with difficulty
that it could be coaxed to go. The
delay, however, only whetted the
of the picnickers for the
excellent three-course breakfast that
was served. After breakfast Miss
Gertrude Dullenty was invited to go
for walk in the woods, in the course
of which she "chanced" upon box
that seemed to have been washed
up by the Missouri" but which on
being opened proved to be filled with
a great many things to delighe the
heart of a prospective bride, the
gifts Of her friends.

REV. S. McIVOR WILL
ACCEPT new CHARGE

Along with all the usual quota OF
good news of the week comes the
bad news that Rev. McIvor has re-
signed the pastorate of the Presby-
terian church and will soon leave for
Ferry county, Washington to accept
a home mission charge, with head
quarters at Republic. He will have
the whole county as his field. A let
ter offering him the charge describes
it as unusually attractive for a man
of Rev. McIvor's stamp. 1t is a
mountainous, timbered country with
the beautiful Columbia river as it's
eastern boundary. Republic is the
county seat and principal town.
There are only two churches in the
town, the Presbyterian and the Cath
olic.
Rev. McIvor came here from Ken
mare, N. D., nearly five years ago,
He has done faithful and efficient
work and made himself force for
good in the community. His work
and influence with the young folks
has been especially fine. He is of
mans stature taken from any angle,
able and willing to work with either
head or hands. He has done much
for the community and the church.
we need more citizens of his brand
Of courage and stamina. A host of
friends wish him the greatest success
in his new field.

new GROCERY And
new MARKET OPEN

Chas. Hauge and Fred Schafer
opened their new places of business
today in the newly finished mod
ern building of the Farmers Lumber
Co., on Main street, two doors west of
the post office.
Everything is spick and span, at
tractive and convenient. The front
portion of the building is occupied by
the display stock of The City Grocery
while in the rear portion is the sales
counter and immense cooling room
of Schafer's Market. The storage
room in the rear and the basement is
divided between them.
The two places make good combi-
nation and are an attractive addition
to the business places of the city.

COMMUNITY PROGRAM
NEXT FRIDAY EVENING

Secretary Gordon announces the
date for the third Community pro-
gram as Friday evening, June 8, at
500 o'clock. The place will be the
high school assembly room. The fea-
lures of the program have not been
announced but will include musical
and other entertaining numbers and
some interesting talks on topics of
live local interest.
Everybody is welcome and admis-
sion is free. The first two meetings
were real successes and this one will
uphold the record.

To Honor Soldier Dead

assure this result than by cherishing
tenderly the memory of our heroic
dead, who made their breasts a bar
ricade between our country and its
foes? Their soldier lives were the
reveille of freedom to a race in chains
and their deaths a tattoo of rebellious
tyranny in arms. We should guard
their graves with sacred vigilence.
All that the consecrated wealth and
taste of the nation can add to their
adornment and security is but a fit
ting tribute to their slain defenders.
Let no wanton foot tread rudely on
such hallowed grounds. Let pleas
ant paths invite the coming and go
ing of visitors and fond mourners.
Let no vandalism or avarice or neglect
no ravages of time, testify to the
present or to the coming generations
that we have forgotten as a people
the cost of free and undivided re-

H. N. Marion spoke briefly but
well, taking the view point that the
ideals of the American Legion were
identical with those held by all right
patriotic American citizens.
Rev McIvor's address was clean
cut and forceful He paid eloquent
tribute to the soldiers of all our wars
who served and died that their coun-
.ry might survive. In the conclud-
ng portion of his remarks he told
5he audience some plain truths. bear

The loud and continued applause that
greeted him indicated that he could
appropriately have extended his COM
nents with approval of the audience.

by the council to attend to the matter
and that he demand the owners and
instruct them how they should be re-

length of time in which to make the
repairs.
The fire chief also reported that
numerous teams were in the habit
of tieing to the phone and light poles
in the alleys on both sides of Main
street, thus blocking the fire depart
ment in going to fires. The chief
advised that there be signs posted
warning against hitching to the poles.
The chief was asked by the council
to attend to posting the signs.
The fire chief also reported that

WEEK WELL FILLED
WITH SOCIAL EVENTS

The social events of the past week
nave been many, and nearly every
evening has had its party.
Large Whist Party
Mesdames J. F. Cook, Cliff Cook
and J. P. West were hostesses at a
large and delightful party given at
the j. F. Cook home Thursday even
ing. The rooms were lavishly deco
rated with cut flowers, lilacs and ap-
pie blossoms bringing to many of the
guests "reminiscences of springtime in
other states. Besides these flowers
there were also peonies, gladioli and
marguerites in profusion.

DOWNFALL OF ROME
FINELY PICTURED
CECIL B. DeMILLE PRESENTS
HISTORIC SCENE IN
MANSLAUGHTER

There were no photographers to
record the dress and customs of the
day when the barbarians overthrew
ancient Rome. Nevertheless, Cecil
DeMille has produced an historically
faithful reproduction of this for his
latest Paramount picture, "Man-
slaughter" coming to the Liberty
theatre next Thursday-Friday.
The episode in question Is a his
torical cutback, which wildly depicts
the decent of the barbarian hords
upon Rome. Weeks of research work
on the part of the director, scenarist
and art director, preceded the film
ing of the scenes.
Leatrice Joy, who is one of the
principals of the modern portion of
the story, is the hostess at a lavish
beautiful Roman bacchanal which is
by Thomas Meighan in
the role of the leader of the Goths.
Lois Wilson, John Miltern and Cas-
son Ferguson are the other members
Of the notable cast who appear in
this sequence.
A strikingly realistic gladiatorial
combat is one of the many interest
ng features of the bacchanalian en-
Although this episode
'equired more than a week to film
and kept nearly thousand people
it will occupy the screen
,or only few minutes. 1t is used
o point a powerful lesson and serves
o draw an interesting comparison
between ancient Rome and modern i
America.

FARM HOME BURNS

When Barney Dambly and son
Sylvester went out to the farm on
Monday morning they found that the
house had burned down the night be-
fore. The building, which compris-
ed four nice big rooms, had been COM
pletely destroyed, together with all
contents, including some furniture.
Fortunately the barn and other
buildings did not catch on fire, ow-
ing to the wind being from the oppo-
site direction.
We understand $1,000 insurance
was carried on the building, but this
will not compensate the loss.-Circle

TREMENDOUS PICTURE

Said to be tremendous picture
with many big punches, Cecil B. De
Miles new Paramount production,
"Manslaughter" will be the feature
attraction at the Liberty theatre for
two days, beginning next Thursday.
The story deals with the idle rich
and has much appeal. Thomas Mel

cipal rolls.
