About 35 years ago John l. Baird,
now dead, but at that time a poor po-
Iiceman living in Brooklyn, N. Y. in
vested part of his small savings in
about 100 acres of land on the Indian
sFTver near Melbourne, Florida. It
might be he was rather doubtful Of
the investment in land which he had
never seen, and which was so far away
from his home. At any rate he did
not mention the investment to mem
hers of his family.
Years passed and John Baird
worked on, struggling to raise his
family, two boys and a girl, giving
zhem the best education possible with
IN his means.
About fifteen years ago, John Baird
died He left little. There was a
small saving accountant some pa
peers The papers meant nothing to
the children. Edward Baird, one of
xhe sons was having struggle of
his own to care for a family of four.
LA few years he died, too, and left
zImost as little as his father.
Then the real struggle began, for
the window, Helen Baird. She had a
slight musical education, SO she turned
sD teaching. Month after month
through many years she managed to
hold the little family Of two boys and
r. girl together.
Fl can't say we ever have really
known actual want" she said yester-
SAY, "but it was terrible struggle
60 keep our home going. Somehow,
m~mrway, I managed to keep the
children in school"
And that was the situation Of tht
Baird family few months ago
There seemed to be no prospects Of 9
sudden change in fortune.
Down in Florida a real estate mar
started looking around for available
tracts, when land began to be worth
acquiring. He found that large
parcel of tract desired by syndi
cate, stood in the name of John IrG
Baird. The land was SO much desired

The 100 acres of land John Bair,

1903 may take advantage Of the law
enabling such corporations TO continue
their existence. Also S. ]. R. by
Scofield was recommended for pas
sage, which is a resolution, asking
speedy assistance of congress in the
creation of the St. Lawrence lake-to-
lake waterway from Duluth to the At
lantic ocean.
Senator Tower of Lake county,
newly seated senator, was appointed
to several committees. The State
Board of Examiners reported num-
Der Of deficiency claims against the

committee on finance and claims.
The House
The bill by Joffray of Jefferson
county, providing that all hangings
take place at the State Prison at Deer
Lodge, was killed when the House
adopted the minority report signed by
Void of Yellowstone, who was mem
Der of the committee which went to
Deer Lodge to make an investigation.
Kelley Of Powell, in an imprisoned
plea, pointed out that the people of
Deed Lodge were obliged to endure
the State Prison and the town Of Deer
Lodge had lost much because Of its
being located there, and that if each
county in Montana had but two execu-
tions in twenty-eight years, it would
mean two hangings at The State
Prison each year. The bill was de-
signed to prevent the hanging in
Jefferson county Of Roy Walsh, who is
sentenced to be hung on February
14th.
The Senate Friday
Tn principal business of Fridays
session was a discussion over the mat
ter of whether the committees ap-
pointed by the senate to probe into the
conditions Of state institutions should
be compelled to receive consent from

in connection with their Investigations.
Senator Griffin offered motion to this
effect, and after some lively debate
vote was taken which resulted in
% to % in favor Of motion that it
would not be necessary to receive con-
sent from the senate. Senator CARRIER
told the senate that some Of the COM
mittees had already incurred expense
in the performance of the probing
duties and Senators Clark and Stewart
contended that it would be necessary
to visit the institutions, in order that
knowledge could be gained Of actual
conditions existing.
Senator Griffin, Pauline and Buttle

FLAG DAY

The approaching observance of
Flag Day, nationwide in scope and
worldwide in sentiment, tends to
bring us into a closer realization of
the significance attached to our Ma
tional colors.
The stripes of red, symbolic of the
baptism in the noble blood of Ameri-
can manhood, alternating with the
pure white stripes, that should never
bear the stains Of national dishonor
together with the clear-cut stars
amid the field of blue, all forming
the component parts of the banner
representing these United States of
America; is a beautiful and impress
sive sight to behold as it floats in an
azure sky, with the bright sunlight
playing upon it's glorious and pro-
tecting folds.
Our Flag should have the loyal
support of all true Americans. Gov
eminent officials, the men in whose
hands the welfare of this country
rests, should ever remember-and
practice-the sacred trust reposed
in them. No un-American practice,
or m~alfeasance of public office can
be tolerated, supported or condoned
by our people.
National and state legislatures
should forget momentarily at least,
on this day of reverence, all party
differences, and unite in rendering
due homage.
For our Flag to continue to wave
over the republic as the symbol of
Liberty, in its truest sense, and ra-
tional patriotism in its noblest form,
thus justifying that proud boast of
unsullied reputation so we'll known
to every school student, is our pray
err. However, our country should be
free from sec%tarianism; free from
corrupt political influences and prac-
tees; ~eternally grateful to the brave
men who have, by sacrificing their
lives, insured Democracy; and solicit
tous of the comfort and welfare of
its manned veterans.
In this way Old Glory will contin-
ne to merit its praise, justify its glor-
ious traditions, prove symbolic of
of unadulterated patriotism and I'M
selfish devotion, and indeed measure
up to the beloved Lincoln's terse
words: that these dead shall
not have died in vain ..."

IN MONTANA

Isn't it fine to live in Montana
where every prospect p~leases; where
most of the weather is delightful and
nature smiles even though the
heavens weep. No hot waves to kill
people by the hundreds; no tornadoes
to sweep our homes away, no con
gestion that forces a survival of the
fttest. Distant lands may be allur-
ing but Montana is where opportun-
ity lives and laughs, while she mere
ly smiles in California and Florida.
Montana is where there i S
room and a chance for all, where
there is labor for all and where la
Dor is always finally rewarded. Our
great state is So big that some of
us can't see it, so close to us that
our perspective is distorted. Take a
careful invoice of M%ontana's viz
tues and advantages and you will
have no time to look for a better
place.

wood alcohol vender convicted.

Among the vagarious weather stor-
les that found their way into papers
the past week was one that must have
given readers on both coasts a thrill
ling kick. 1t told how the "whole
state of Montana was under a four
inch blanket of snow" On the At
lantic where, according to one of
the aforesaid stories, about 480 UNI
f~ortunates prematurely roasted and
died during the hot wave, the Mon
tana tale sounded delicious, but on
the Pacific, where it never,
gets cold Except when the straw
berry crop is refrigerated while still
in the bloom) the news from the
''frozen north was probably read
with shivers. The staid and conser-
vative old Oregonian of Portland
fell for it. In Portland, you know,
the climate is very, very soft, par
ticularly during the thirteen or four
teen months of the year when it
rains 26 hours every day. The string
fend who put out this four inch Mon
tana blanket story is a piker who
does not know his business. He may
have taken journalism in "six easy
lessons" from a mail order school,
but its golf balls to garden peas he
couldn't show a sheep skin from a
COW college. Why only four inches?
For years the accepted depth for
snow falls in June and July is eight
inches. 1t is just as well established
as the annual freeing Of two school
ma'ams in North Dakota on January
22nd. The "snow bird" who sent
out the story about Wyoming wealth
err last week made it the regulation
eight inches and it went without
question in all the big city dailies.
But this Oregon chap leaves Mon
tana trailing the thrills of the day
with a measly four inches. If he
and Garet Garrett will come to the
Wolf Point Stampede next month
they will be admitted free and ex-
hibited in a padded room decorated
with a frieze of snow shovels and
mortgages.

suspect there's another reason. Last
Sunday a young man walked INTO
church with his working overalls on.
He was a member of a work crew
that happened to be in the city over
Sunday. We are certainly pleased to
see him and find a man whose thots
and desires r to take part in the
worship of God was greater than any
thots concerning clothes. Work is
honorable so therefore are working
clothes. We sometimes. forget that
Jesus was a carpenter.
You will always find a welcome at
this church at all of it's services.

Last Sundays services were great
ly enjoyed by two good-sized congre-
cations. In the morning the Child
ren's Day program proved to be all
we expected it to be. Our Methodist
friends being without a preacher,
came over in a body and helped swell
the number attending the service. A
very generous offering was given to
help forward the work of the Sun
day school Missionaries of the Pres
byterian church. The offering a.
mounted to $20.87. In the evening the
service was made very attractive by
the presence of the Facey Musical
organization which contributed some
very beautiful music to the service.
Next Thursday June IS is the re-
gular meeting of the Presbyterian
Women's Club. Special music is being
prepared for that afternoon. Come
and bring a guest. AS a member of
the church your faithful attendance
at these meetings will help US to ba-
nish the drudgery from women's de-
partment of the church work. If you
are not a church member and want
to attend speak to some one who is
and you will be invited. We are not
seeking to make this club exclusive,
but the invitation of non-members is
an essential part of the new plan.
Help us work it.
