which is the basis of the above state
ment. According to the larger meter
reading it would make the cost per

There seems to be considerable
difference of opinion as to whether
this cost should include a labor
charge. Those co~ntending against it
claim that the city required the SER
vices of two men during the opera
ton by the w. P. L. & P. Co. and
that there is no extra labor necessary
under the city's operation. However,
figuring the salary of Mr.. Hamblin,
based on the larger meter reading
shown above, it would cost per K. w.

PETITION FOR CHANGE

The people of the Camrud com
munity have sent a large petition to
the postoffice department asking for
service out of Volt instead of Scobey
which would give them quicker mail
service by just about a week, than at
present. The present service is just
about as poor as could be arranged.
It often happens that mail sent out
from Wolf Point does not reach them
for ten days. They are also petition
ing to have the name changed from
Camrud to Benrud because of the
delay sometimes caused by confusion
with the name Conrad, which is in
the western part Of the state.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1923-03-29

In justice to the w. P. L. & P. Co
it should be taken into consideration
that they gave an all night service
on the lights during the period shown
in the above statement, at least Sc
| I'M informed. However they only
pulled one pump and the water main:
on the Northside were not in opera
ton at the time they were furnish.
ing the city.
At present the greater portion OF
the electric current used by the city
in pumping is used on the big pump
from which the city receives the least
efficiency, it delivering at present
less than 25 per cent the water it
should produce.
Unfortunately I am unable to give
you the electric meter readings dur
ing the operation by the w. L. l.. &
P. Co. nor the water meter readings
during either of the periods covered
by the statements.
Moved by Alderman Carpenter
that the report of the city clerk on
the city lighting and pumping plant
as submitted be published with the
minutes, seconded by Alderman
Young. Motion carried.
Moved by Alderman Carpenter
that the superintendent of the water
department be instructed to send the
meter to the Power Equipment Co.
and have the same same tested and
have it properly connected when re-
turned, after which he make an ac-
curate test for six months and sub
nit a report based on those readings.
Seconded by Alderman Ferguson and
carried.
Alderman Carpenter, chairman of
the committee appointed at the pre-
vious meeting to view Fifth avenue
north as to the feasibility of drain
ing the same, reports the committee
had a c%ulvert put in and drained the
water west.
E. M. Krost came before the coun-
Gil and explained the Road Razer Of
the Avery Mfg. Co. Moved by AL
derman Carpenter that the council
sign a contract for ar Avery Road
Racer to be delivered as 0 as pos
sible; the city to pay the freight on
the machine; the Avery people to
send a man to demonstrate the ma
chine, seconded by Alderman Young
and carried.
Moved by Alderman Carpenter that
the meeting adjourn. Motion carried.

income COUNTY BOY
HAS ARTISTIC TALENT

A young man stepped into the
Herald Office this week to INQUIRE
for some old copies of the paper anc
when asked as to what dates were
wanted said that any that had prints
of Charley Russell's pictures would
be acceptable. "You see | have been
copying these Russell pictures. in
pen and ink, for practice this winter

went on as the Herald man looked UP

young man explained that he was

would you car to look at it?" he
timidly ventured, taking a fiat pack
age from under his arm.
Most certainly The Herald man
cared to look, and what he saw gave
him a thrill of surprise. Art criti-
cism is not in the reporters line but
so far as his honest Judgment goes
he believes that the ten or a dozen
drawings the young man displayed are
proof of unusual talent. These cop
led drawings are somewhat larger
than the prints that have appeared
in The Herald and if they had been
shown under different circumstances,
and represented as the original work
of Montana's great artist would not
have been questioned, so remarkably
accurate are they in detail and eff
feet. If anyone thinks it easy to
one of these pictures and make
it look like the original, he should
try to do it.
But this budding artist, who has
been studying but a few months, does
not %confine himself to copying the
works of others but has essayed orr
ginal work and an engraving of one
of his original drawings will appear
in an early issue of The Herald.
Other pictures done by him are part
original, such as taking an idea
from a small snapshot and charging
It.
This young man is Ingmar Thore-
sen, a son of Mr.. and Mrs. Eric
Fhoresen, and a brother. of Mrs. Fred
Johnson, well known people of the
.5outhside.
