THREE DAYS SNOW
STORM VISITS NORTHWEST

The Northwest was visited by a
three days snow storm commencing
Monday morning and ending Wednes-
day about noon. During this period
of storm there was a generous pre-
cipitation. Although it was warm and
the snow melted as it fell, yet it fell
so fast that Tuesday everything was
buried under about six or eight inches
of very wet snow. The flakes were
very large and fell fast. The storm
was general over the northwest.
Those farmers who had their seed

Their that has prevailed Thursday and

COMMERCIAL CLUB
HAVE MEETING
LAY PLANS AND MAKE PREPA-
RATIONS FOR A ROUSING GEL
EBRATION AT FLEETWOOD
ON THE THIRD AND FOURTH.
CLUB BAND AND LEGION WILL
COOPERATE.

There will be a celebration of the
Fourth of July again this year.
That much was decided at the Meet
ing of the Plentywood Commercial
club Tuesday evening at the council
chamber.
1t was decided to celebrate both the
Third and Fourth and to put on a
celebration that will make the welkins
ring. The celebration last year was
so satisfactory that the business men
of Plentywood think that it would be
a good idea to repeat.
There was a splendid representation
out to the Commercial Club meeting
and the sentiment for the celebration
was practically unanimous. After
some discussion it was finally agreed
that the celebration would be under
the auspices of the Commercial Club,
the Plentywood Post of the American
Legion and the Plentywood Band. The
spirit of the meeting was optOmlstlc
and all seemed, inclined to put Shout
der to the wheel and put on celebra-
ton the likes of which has never been
in northeastern Montana.
In order to develop the celebration
plans, Chairman Christensen of the
Commercial Club appointed the fol-
lowing men to act on a committee of
arrangements: Andy Malcolm and
Oscar Gullickson from the Legion;
Henry DeSilva and E. T. Mitchell
from the Band; and Jack Bennett and
Fred Tbsen from the Commercial Club

IGen. Miles and Widow of Custer
Reminisce of Frontier DAYS

A dashing cavalier of the civil war
and a reigning belle of the old from
tier days-whose names occupy some
of the most brilliant chapters in
American history-met Unexpectedly
in Washington the other day, renewed
an acquaintance of half a century
ago and reminisced over a cup of tea
upon many stirring events of the pio-
neer period in which they partici-

They are Lieut.. Gen. Nelson A.
Niles, an outstanding figure in the
war of the states and one of the
Army's most distinguished Indian
fighters, and Mrs. George Armstrong

Indian warriors on the Little Big

Mrs. Custer stopped in Washington
last week en- route to Florida and

and had tea with her last Saturday.
1t was a striking reunion, because
not only were Gen. Custer and Gen.
Miles comrades in arms through two
wars, but it was Gen. Miles who

Doctrines Inspire RevoIu-
tions Toward Better Things,
Lions Club Hears.

The question, Who is this?' that
was asked when Christ entered Jeru-
salem on Palm Sunday is still being
asked by the world today Rev. DR..
Harry Dawson Mitchell told members
of the Lions Club at the New Willard
Hotel yesterday. DR.. Mitchell stressed
two things: That Christianity was not
a creed, but was a person-Christ
and that the spirit of Christmas AMI
al it's good works came from the one
fact and statement I'm Bethlehem Of
Judea there is one who is born whose
name is Jesus"
DIR. Mitchell expressed surprise that
one of the debaters in New York in
the recent debate upon the Bible
should have said that Mary. the
mother of Christ, did not go to be
registered by the Romans because
there was no registration. 'Histor-
ical facts show us that there was a
registration by the Romans at that
time" declared DR.. Mitchell.
He declared Christ was the great
est "agitator" the world has ever
seen and that he changed the whole
aspect of the world. IF you don. I
want revolutions. if you don't believe
in the betterment OF the common
people and the reaching out by men
for better and higher things, then
you will have to stop preaching o%
Christ the Son of Cod" declared Dr.
Mitchell. who stated that despite the
EFFORTS of the soviet or any other
opposition. the cause sponsored by
ChriAt would win.
A resort of Christmas night activities
by the members of the club at Mount
Alto Hospital was read at the lunch
con Mora than $50 ex-service men
were entertained at the hospital with

tion of Harry Taylor Cigars and
cigarettes were distributed A large
number of cigarettes were also sent

in addition to help individually to
