Leslie Elton, sixteen year old

was struck by train No. 1. 1t is not
known for certain that he was aware
Of the approach of the train, the car
having curtains on the danger side
and some say that the boys attention
was directed toward a flock of sheep
that had just been driven across the

see that he made any effort to es-
cape. He was very promising
young lad and his death is a great
shock to the community. The burial
took place at Galata Saturday.

ology before making any trips to

did he not give considerable credit

the ladies, as usual, had done the
good work. The Kelvin Civic Club,
composed of the ladies of Kevin,
with Mrs. B. G. Herd as president,
Mrs. o. D. Crawford, vice president
and Mrs. r. 3. Thompson, secretary
and treasurer, is responsible for the
new fire Siren which has been in

department with considerable equip
ment. They have, in addition, pur-
chased a number of fire extinguish-
ers and distributed them, and have
had the walks around the town re-
paired. Ladies accept our humble

SAVING LIVES

Six thousand lives were saved in
Washington last year-not by can
didates for Carnegie medals, or by
some miraculous new discovery, but
by the slow march of progress Of the
last fifty years in satatation, medi-
cine, education-the art of heathful
living. When the National Confer
ence held it's second meeting in
1875 the death rate for the city of
Washington was 28.08 for each 1000
Of its people; in 1922 it was 1879.
Smallpox has been vanquished-and
tuberculosis and in fact mortality,
the other two capitol offenders of
1875, are on the run. If those rates
of 1875 had been in force in 1922
there would be 1000 fewer babies an
1000 fewer citizens of other ages to
imbibe the lessons of the conference
and work toward making Washing
ton real heaven of health-The
Survey.

Bank
DepositOYs Aid
Ia Re Opening

is active in working out plans to re-
open the First National Bank, is We
ry we'll satisfied as to the results al
ready attained. Depositors are sign
ing the extension agreement very
freely, in fact there has been but
one refusal according to Mr.. Benja-
min. He thinks it the only solution
Of the problem, to get it out of re-
ceivers hands as soon as possible.
He cites the instance of the Havre
National Bank about ten days ago,
paying ten per cent; it being the
first and only payment to the depos-
itors since the bank failed just two
years ago. Under the hoped for ar
rangement for the local bank, so per
cent would be paid in that period.

Attempt Being
Made to Force
Crude Market

In spite of the large amount of oil
used in drilling operations, the crude
refined at the Sunburst and Ameri-
can refineries in Great Falls, and
shipped to Canada and that used by
the smaller refineries and topping
plants in the field and in spite of the
slowing down and shutting in of
wells to their smaller capacity, over
four hundred thousand barrels of
storage in the Kevin-Sunburst field
is full. Plans are being worked out
to increase the capacity Of the pres
ent refineries and for the building
of others, but these plans have been
overtaken by the continual coming
in of new production. 1t is hoped that
it will not be long until the produc-
tion can be cared for, but in the
meantime, six of the larger compan-
les operating in the field have enter
ed into a shutdown agreement until
such time as market conditions and
the demand for refineries shall
make the resumption of the busines
of production, consistent.
1t is believed that by March first
the shutdown will be over, and with
out doubt, when refineries are avail
able to take care of the potential
production of the field, it will never
again be necessary to take such
step, as we have plenty of market at
our door to use all the oil that can
be produced, for oil from fields much
farther away cannot then be shipped
in to TAKE OUR MARKET, as is
now done.
The agreement entered into ap-
plies only to producing wells and not
to prospecting or further drilling of
proven ground, according to the an
nouncement made. Without doubt,
there will be considerable activity
thruout the field all winter, even if
the shutdown should continue, as
there will be many of the smaller
companies are going ahead with
their development programs. The
shutdown will also have but little
effect upon test wells that may be
contemplated.

Married EnrOute

Art Sellery, land man for the Ohio
Oil company, and Colonel Carl
Schwartz, scout for the Ohio, have
returned from an absence which call
ed them to Casper, Wyoming, and
from there to a new oil excitement
at Craig, Colorado. Sellery is well
liked here and has always been a
good booster and good backer for
Shelby projects, while Schwartz, is
of course, one of the old home guard.
Their friends are glad to see them
back. They both bring good words
for our field and it's future, and pre-
dict that next spring and summer,
development here will really get un-
der way on big scale. We have
heard reports that Carl was present
at marriage ceremony while in Bill
lings, with himself taking the part
Of leading man, and that the young
lady is now in Great Falls. That
there may be some truth to this rum
or we are lead to believe as the ru-
NOR further had it that Carl was
going to build his home in Shelby,
and our reporter saw of our lead
ing aggressive real estate dealers,
an architect, four contractors, two
lumber dealers and a plumber, wait
ing to see Mr.. Swartz the morning
after he arrived. The Ohio Oil COM
pany is erecting large flag staff
and neat iron fence around their
property, in honor of the return of
Mr.. Sellery and Mr.. Swartz.
Should the report of the marriage
of Mr.. Swartz prove true, no doubt
his friends will hold a suitable re-
ception.

FLEECING THE FARMER

The threshing machines are hum
ming and the biggest wheat crop in
the Northwest is piling up in the
bins and elevators.
The mails are flooded with liter
ature offering the farmers opportu-
mites for investment in oil stocks
and other securities-mostly of the
fake order.
The professional fleecers know
that the farmers, who have purch-
ased 58,0OO,0oO boshels of wheat this
year, even at low prices, are going
to have a lot of ready money.
They figure that the agricultural
wool crop is going to be big one,
and that the lambs have got to be
shorn.
There is no doubt but what mil
lions of dollars will be taken out of
the farming districts on fake stocks.
What is the remedy? We know
Of only one and that is to advise ev-
eryone to consult their local banker
before investing in securities of any

Couple Steal March
On Intimate Friends

rip Van Winkle was lucky
man" the original one, but all
great men have imitators and
the citizens of Keyin have but
one vote as to the illustrious one
in this city, following the wedd-
ing on last Saturday when R. G.
Herd and Miss Clara Goeddertz
became man and wife.
The happy couple journeyed to
Great Falls and without a word
to their many friends and rela-
tiyes and had the ceremony per-
formed.
Miss Goeddertz is the eldest
daughter Of Mr. and Mrs. ALERT
Goeddertz of this city and is one
of the most popular and well
known young ladieso of the county.
She has been employed in the
Campbell office, and in her faith

'AIfaIfa Wizard"
Enightens Local
Farmers Meeting

Hon. l. D. O'Donnell, the Gal
falfa Wizard" of Billings, gave
the farmers and business men of
this vicinity treat in lecture
delivered in the Goeddertz hall
last Saturday. Mr.. O'Donnell is
practical farmer and his sue
cesses gained by scientific rota-
tion of crops is we'll known thru
out the Northwest.
Farming in a territory with
very limited rainfall, as he does,
his experiences and advice is in
teresting and wholly practical in
this section of the state.
He talked at considerable length
on alfalfa and the sugar beet as
being necessary for the proper
conservation of moisture and at
the same time acts as a cure for
the present crisis of the agricul-
turists in the over production Of
wheat.
Mr.. O'Donnell is sent out by
the Great Northern railroad and
appeared here under the aspici-
GUS of the local Chamber of Com
merice.
Right here it may not be amiss
to draw the attention of the COM
mllnity to its lack of interest in
valuable public affairs of this
nature. The Chamber of Com
merice went to some trouble in
obtaining this entertainment and
the Ladies of Kevin put on
banquet and due to a lack of pub
lie interest the attendance was, I
to say the least, miserly.
The dance in the evening was
well attended.

,Berlin.-By q vote of 316 to "a, the

The coalition parties turned out in
their full strength for the bill, the
socialist party board having made sup

Of its reichstag members.
The German peoples party also
came to Chancellor Stresemann's sup

casting a blank ballot.
Before the vote the chancellor re-

The authorization bill gives the gov

deems necessary and urgent, regard
less of the rights specified in the con

Some were demonstrations by unem-
