PREPARING TO DOUBLE
TRACK W. p WHITEFISH

Hinsdale, Dec. 12.-The Great
Northern railroad company has a
crew of men prospecting for gravel
in the vicinity of Hinsdale for sew
eral days, with the view of opening
up a gravel pit on the land owned
by John Floren, John Rennick and
Soept Drabbs. After a thorough ex-
animation of the land, Mr.. Black
seth, roadmaster, is convinced that
gravel in sufficient quantity can be
secured in this neighborhood, and
work will be started early in the
spring.
The location of the pit will be on
the north side of Milk river, and it
will be necessary to erect a bridge
across the river and lay track for
about three miles.
Mr.. Blackseth says the G. N. will
double track the road from White
Fish to Wolf Point next year and
will install complete block system
along the entire road.

PLAN BASKET SOCIAL

Joe Camrud and Lloyd Hedstrom,
two ardent boosters for Pershing
community and all that pertains to
its welfare, were in Wolf Point Mon
day, and said that big basket
social and dance is scheduled for Sat-
urday evening, Dec. %, at the Per-
shing school house. The proceeds
will go into the community hall fund
as it is the plan of the people in
that neighborhood to build COM
munity hall in the not distant future.
Feick's orchestra, consisting of
piano, saxaphone and drums, will
furnish the music for the dance, and
Mr.. Camrud and Mr. Hedstrom say
that a cordial invitation to be pres
ent is extended to everyone, and that
they are going to try to make ar
rangements with the weather man
to continue the present fine weather
until after the 22nd.
