affairs of the schools. It near tire
less work toward an ideal goal, and
as is the case in most matters of
education. it means that a consider
able part of the compensation for the
work accomplished must come in the
form of satisfaction for work done.
Mrs. McFarlan has been county
superintendent of schools since the
creation of Roosevelt county, and dur
ing the five years she has held the
office has worked increasingly for
their %Upbuilding. Sometimes she
has had a deputy and sometimes she
has not, and has had to do not only
the field work of visiting the
schools in a large county, but has
had to attend to all the office work
as well, and we believe that during
this period the schools have prospered
and been brought to a higher stan
lard of efficiency than ever before.

ease or sickness which attacks the
victim some time on Sunday morning
and leaves his about bedtime Sunday
evening, is sometimes called "Morbus

about it is that the patients appetite
does not seem to be affected, nor

are the symptoms during the hours

MRS, McFARLAN

There is one department of our
county government that frequently
appears to be treated as of minor i'm
p~ortance, yet which in reality is
among the most important depart
ments. That is the department Of
education.
Officials may squander money and
thereby lay a burden Of debt upon
the shoulders of children yet unborn,
or by thrift and efficient management
they may SO administer the affairs
of office that future generations will
call them blessed. But whether
struggling to cope with a burden Of
debt or enjoying the fruits of pros
perity, the citizens of tomorrow need
the best possible education to fit them
to get the most out of life. This
means good teachers who are gen

WELCOME

The county offices are today being
moved to their new home in Wolf
Point, from Poplar and it will be but
a few days until the machinery of
county government is again operat-
ing smoothly. Most of the officials
have rented houses and will soon
move their families to this city.
There viii also be several clerks and
deputies who will come here.
To all these we wish to extend a
sincere and hearty welcome. We are
glad you T coming, we hope you
will like US, and we want you to feel
at home here. Once more, on behalf
of all the citizens of Wolf Point, the
Herald says welcome"

WHY NOT A GOOD ROADS DAY?

A few weeks ago Havre had a
good roads day. The business places
were closed and two hundred or
more of the citizens spent the day
working on the roads leading into the
city, with the result that they were
put in better condition than they
had been for years. Bad places in
the roads We're fixed up and in some
places the roads were surfaced with
gravel.
The condition of the Wolf Point
streets following one of our big rains
points eloquently to the need of work
right here in Wolf Point. The work
done by the city in smoothing down
the rough places, rounding off the
surface Of the streets and digging
out the cutters is a step in the right
direction and should be appreciated
by the citizens. But the Main
street gumbo will be just as sticky
after the next rain and just as I'M
pleasant to drive through with cars
as it has been on previous occasions.
Last week the American Legion
made a start toward crawling Main
street between Third and Fourth,
and the improved appearance Of the
gravelled places, is an indication of
what the streets might be made to
look like if the whole town turned
out and Joined in the good work.
There is a plentiful supply of
gravel close to the city, and if the
citizens will cooperate, we can have
the best streets Of any town in
Northeastern Montana at a very
slight money cost. Let's have a
"Good Roads Day"

IMPORTANT TO AGRICULTURE

That the national conference of
farm organizations to be held in st.
Paul, July 18th and 18th, will be
one of the most important gather
ings in the interests of agriculture
ever held in this country, is indi-
Gated by the early response to the
special call sent out by the commit
tee for the promotion of the McNary-
Haugen bill. That bill having failed
of passage in the last session of
congress, it is now proposed to for
mulate a definite plan and map out
a concerted campaign to carry into
effect in the next session of con
gress the principles of agricultural
equality such as the McNary-Hau-
gen bill proposed.

Pyramid of Cheops Is
Still in Good Condition

Save for one surviving pyramid. the
seven wonders Of the ancient world
have passed on. Not only have they
disappeared, but their memory is most
ly confined to the pages Of old books.
Strangely enough. the one surviving
wonder Is the Oldest. 1t dates back
almost 1000 years before Christ, and
1t Is still in good condition. 1t Is the
pyramid of Cheops at Ghizeh, in
Egypt. The most notable thing about
the pyramid was the cnre taken to
protect it from grave robbers. All the
entrances were sealed. There were
several large chambers near the base
Of the structure built to mislead any
one seeking the sepulchral chamber.
This was 1873 feet above the ground,
and could be reached only by tortu-
Gus passages, cleverly concealed.
The walls of Babylon were the sec
ond wonder. The third wonder was
the statue of Zeus in the temple at
Ephesus. The fifth was the mausoleum
of Halicarnassus, in Carla. The sixth
was the Colossus of Rhodes, and the
seventh was the lighthouse of Alexan-
dria at Pharos. 1t was Antipater Of
Palestine, the Baedecker of the an
Client world, who selected the seven
wonders about 200 years before the
birth Of Chrlst.-Detroit News.

kissing Termed Crime
in Puritan Nev ENGLAND

Kissing Is considered an unhealthful
practice by some people. A few years
ago the physicians of Milwaukee pre-
pared bill for the absolute suppress
sion Of kissing. on the ground that the
practice was hyglenlcally dangerous.
The bill did not become law, or It
would have made Milwaukee more ia
nous, but somewhat similar laws ex-
listed in Puritan New England.
In 1856 Capt. Kemble of Boston was
"set for two hours in the public stocks
for his lewd and unseemly behaviour"
which consisted in kissing his wife
publiquely on the Sabbath day, upon
the doorstep of his house, when he had
just returned from an absence Of
three years." Twelve years later
Jonathan and Susannah Smith were
each fined shillings and costs for
smiling on the Lords day." The smile,
1t would appear. was only less heinous
than the kiss itself.-Detroit News.

YANKEES AGAIN TIE
 SENATOR'S FOR LEAD
Huggins' Men Win Twin Bill; Walter Johnson
 Beats Indians

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 17.-New York took both games from the Browns to- day; tof3 and to z, thus tying Wash ington again for the lead in the Ameri- can league. The second game was a heavy hitting contest, in which the Yankees slugged five Browns pitchers for 15 hits, including two doubles by Bush and Ruth, Pipp's triple and n home run by Ward, with two men on bases in third inning. Davis, who was hurling for the Browns, had pitched good ball up to that time.
 The Browns collected 13 hits, includ- ing two double by Togin and Jacobson and home run by Jacobson in seventh inning with two men on bases. Bush, who started on the mound for the Yan- kees, was batted out of the box in the seventh and relieved by Herbert Pen nook, who held the Browns safe for the rest of the game.
 The first contest started as hurling duel between Urban Shocker and Y 'aite Hoyt. For five innings both sides went scoreless. Then the Yankees forced three runs over in the sixth, while the Browns fell short one of this number in their half. The Yankees added two more in each the eighth and ninth. St. Louis put it's final run over in the last inning.

MARION PLANS | 0NBIG BATTLE.
Cadets Will Give Bull- dogs Scrap In Game
 Here Saturday

MARION, Ala, Sept. 17.-tSpecial) The Marion Cadets are working hard here this week getting into trim for the Howard college game in Birming- ham Saturday. The Bull dogs will out weigh the Cadets and will have an edge on them in experience but the Marion eleven is known as a fighting team and will entrain for the Magic City with the ayowed intention of giv- ing their huskier opponents plenty of battle. & t
 E. Gilbert<and Luke" Gray are sui fering from bruises at present and may not be able to eRter the game but them back into condition for the game in order not to weaken the team. The return of De Lopaz to school adds quite bit more strength to the Cadet line. He is a tower of strength on both offense and defense and will be a valuable man for the Cadets.
 The remainder of the week will be spent in rounding the team into shape for the game and much stress is be- ing made on defensive work. Probably three or four men from the scrubs will be taken over onto the varsity squad to bolster up the weak places. Britt, Wilson, Bowling and Berry all have shown quite bit of fight and ability. 6.
 Every effort is being made to give the fans real football game when the two elevens meet and it is predicted that the Howard team will have at least as tough sailing as last year in their efforts to beat the Cadets.

WILLS MAY BOX
 JACKIE RENAULT
Fight Proposed For Oct 13 At Yankee Stadium,
 New York

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-The Crom' well Athletic club, which has the prize fight concession at the Yankee sta dium, may retrieve its losses on the worst season since boxing re-opened Tn New York by confronting the customers with Harry Wills-Jack Renault bout on Oct. 13, the latest date ever chosen for an open-air fight show of any i'm portance in New York city.
 The Cromwell club has suffered SC. were pains in the region of the bankroll this year because of the coyness of champions and customers alike. Only one large scramble occurred within the walls of the very expensive stadium, the Tunney- Carpenter bout. Harry Greb fought Ted Moore there but that was a charity performance.
 Cromwell After Match.
 Che Cromwell, however, in trying to match Wills and Renault for an autumn assassination, finds Tex Rickard, the wisest politician and. snowman ln the trade, blocking the play, as usual. Rick ard has Jack Dempsey under agreement to box for him alone in New York and vicinity and if Rickard tells Wills not to take the Renault match, Harry is likely to obey him, knowing that Rick ard can give him a future match with Dempsey or prevent it. just as he pleases.
 Although Rickard was almost put out of business in New York this summer, and brought off his only big show in Jersey City, glance back over the his tory of the 1924 open air season reveals that both the Polo grounds and Yankee stadium fight clubs have been likewise inactive.
 Wills has broken training since he made Luis Firpo more ridiculous than usual, but be could easily get in shape for Renault by the widdle of October.

TY COBB ADDS
 MANY RECORDS
Already Has Smashed More Rec
 Ords Than Any Other

DETROIT, Sept. 17.-With nine games remaining to be played by the Detroit Tigers, Tyrus Cobb stands on the threshold of establishing another record and also in danger of losing one.
 If he makes three more safe hits in the remaining games to be played, his seasons total of safe blows will be POO. bettering the record he now holds jointly with Willie Keeler, of making POO safeties in each of eight seasons.
 At the same time he probably will lose the record he holds jointly with George Sisler of the St. Louis Browns, of the highest individual major league Rogers Hornsby having an average higher than that figure today.
 Cobb, in the 2,595 games in which he has played since entering the major leagues in 1905, has smashed more records than any other man who ever wore a baseball uniform.
 He has hade 100 or more runs in each nine years-an American league record. His figures for 1924 now stand at 102 runs, bringing the mum Der of years to ten for new high mark.
 He has been at bat 9,903 times scored 1928 runs, made 3,652 safe hits and batted 300 or better for 19 consecutive seasons-all of which ara records. The figures include today's game.
 Othe records Cobb is re-establishins this season are: : The highest individual lifetime batting average for a major leaguer; the record of the most games played in the league; the most years leading major league in batting-12 the most singles; the most triples; the most extra base hits; the most extra bases on hits, and the highest tota ! of bases.
