cess Roosevelt" to represent this

Besides being an exceptional stu
dent and a dutiful daughter Miss

charm and deservedly popular.
Should she be elected she would most
assuredly represent her county gra-
ciously and with credit to both her
self and the county.

several State Fairs but this commun-
ity has never before placed can
didate in nomination. A voting cou-
pom will be found in this issue. Only

MRS. ]. B. RANDALL
CLAIMED BY DEATH

Mrs. j. B. Randall passed from
this life Tuesday afternoon at her
home on Fifth avenue in this
city. The end came peacefully and
without pain. A lingering illness
that had lasted six months or more
due to heart trouble and other com
plications, brought the patient stead
lily nearer the end.
Her death, at a comparatively
early age, is a source of grief to the
hosts of friends in and near the city,
some of whom have known the fam
lily for close to 80 years. Mrs. Ran
dali as wife and mother of large
family had done her part faithfully
and well, and no higher duty or
greater privilege falls to the lot Of
womankind.
Funeral services were conducted
at the Presbyterian church this
Thursday afternon at 2:3O, by
Rev Sidney A. Walker, pastor of
the church.
The casket was covered with a pro
fusion of flowers and was borne by
the four sons Of the deceased, John,
William, Donald and Bruce, and
Ray and Jay Cusker, sons Of an old
neighbor.

new PHOTOGRAPHY IN
MARY PICKFORD film

The really exceptionally photo
graphy seen in Mary Pickford's Ia
test United Artists attraction, Gro
sita," is the result of a new method
of lighting produced by Charles
Kosher, cinematographer on this pro-
duction. Mr.. Kosher has created a
new effect which is likely to estab-
lish a new school Of Photographic
art for the screen.
The result he has attained with
his new method is an almost perfect
respective of the third dimension, or
stereoscopic effect, showing the fig
ures in bold relief in the foreground,
at the same time keeping the back
ground sharply in focus, yet obtain
ing the long-sought for effect of
showing distance on a flat service.
"Perspectography" is the new
name applicable to this newest eff
feet in the development of motion
picture production. The last new
thing brought forth in the way of
screen camera work was the soft
focus, while this proved interesting
it has not been altogether practical.
The fact that the new Kosher meth
cd of lighting is particularly prac-
ticable is the thing that recommends
It highly.
"Rosita" comes to the Liberty
Theatre next Thursday-Friday hail
I'd as one of the most beautiful
ohotoplays ever presented in this
,ity, not only from the point of
photography, but also because of
he beauty of the picturesqueness of |
and the lavish scale on
which this enormous production has
,een made.

HOT WAVE MENACES
BUMPER WHEAT CROP
ABUNDANT MOISTURE SAVES
THIS SECTION FROM SER
IOUS DAMAGE so FAR

The heat registered Saturday,
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday has
seldom, if ever, been equaled in this
part of the country and many were
apprehensive that serious damage
was being done to small grain crops.
Sunday was probably the hottest
day and instruments registered var
iously from SO to lot in the shade,
although a spirit thermometer prob
ably would not have equalled any
of these figures. Tuesday was also
a bad day because there was some
wind with the burning heat.
Inquiries as searching as possible
have been made among those who
have been out in the fields this week
or who have come in contact with
farmers, and from all that can be
learned the damage to wheat up to
the present time appears to be
small, in the vicinity of Wolf Point
and in the country north and north
west.
Areas in central McCone county
and eastern Roosevelt have probably
suffered serious damage. The ex-
tent Of damage on the whole will de-
pend largely on the temperature and
from now on. Early
sown fields on well-tilled land have
stood the heat with but very little
damage and such represent large
part of the wheat acreage in this vi
cinity. The 6.3 inches of rain that
fell in June put crops of all kinds
IN fine condition to stand the ex-
IRENE heat.

Plenty of Amusement

Friday was warm and Saturday
was hot but the temperature did not
seem to take the starch out of the
visitors determination to have a
good time if it did wilt their collars.
The whole affair grew better each
day as the crowd got acquainted
with the performers, both men and
horses, and to some extent with each
other. The enlarged grandstands
added much to the comfort of the
people and gave them a better oppor-
tunity to see the show.
An increased number of contest
ants, including many new ones,
along with many of the old, a big
bunch Of broncs, chock full of am
bition and dynamite, insured pro-
grams full of kick.
Jack Goldberg, the rope twirler,
and another one named Kelly, the
clowns, the old Indian woman who
always does dance, the salty
steers, the husky calves who just
about outrun the ponies, the buck
ing mule, the guy that drives you
almost to the point of murder by
standing in front while he works
up sales on cones or lemo, Earl
Vance's dreaming plane that shouts
a well known brand of oil as it sails
over, the announcer who mega
phones the name of the next rider
and horse so it is almost ineligible
they we're all there, all part of
the show.
General Satisfaction
Obviously it is impossible to please
everybody all the time but to the
largest degree to be expected the
crowd and the performers appeared
satisfied with the management Of
and its details. The ad-
dition of a third chute was great
help in speeding up the riding events.
Accidents were few and only one
serious.

FARMERS WILL TOUR

County Agent Dan Noble, Will
liam Powers of Bainville, Sid Blair
of Lanark, and N. L. Nelson Of
Plentywood made a tour into Can
ada last week to lay out a route
which it is expected will be follow
ed by party of farmers and bust
ness men on an international farm
tour July %, % and "a. The OBJ
ject is to make a survey of crops
and farm methods in the best
wheat districts in Saskatchewan.
Mr.. Noble is anxious that as many
local business men and farmers as
possibly can make the trip with
their cars will do so and fill their
cars with friends. He believes it
will be both interesting and pro-
fitable to get in touch with the
Canadians and study some of their
methods especially those dealing
with summer fallow and summer
tillage.
1t is the plan that the party get
together at Flaxville at morning of
the 22nd form where the start will
be made.
An article by Mr.. Noble dealing
with this proposed trip in detail

Takes On Three High Glass
Men In Three Days, Beats
Them All-Daviscourt, a
Near Champ, Goes Down
In Az Minutes, Unable
to Finish Challenges All
Corners

Stanley Buresh of Clarkson, Neb.,
and Wolf Point, lays claim to the
light heavyweight wrestling champ
ionship of the United States and
stands ready to meet all corners re-
gardless of whether they make the
far more weight since the wrestling
tournament, put on by the Ameri-
can Legion, during the Wolf Point
Stampede, when he met and dis
posed of three mighty good men in
three successive days.
Buresh at present weighs scarce
ly It's pounds but gave fall for fall
with Jake Aemend of Billings, hail
ed as state champion of Montana,
and who weighs 220, and Dick Dav-
iscourt of Kansas City, who strips
218 and ranks with the big top
notchers More than this, by per-
fectly fair, legitimate means Stan
ley put them both out of commits
sion, so that they were unable to
come back for the finish, leaving him
the victor.
The beating of Daviscourt will be
surprise in wrestling circles and
make the talent take Buresh into
their calculations. Daviscourt has
beaten some men of international
reputation, including Gardini, Lon
dos and Jack Taylor, champion of
Canade. He also got draw with
Stranger Lewis and a few weeks
ago made strong showing against
Joe S+echer, the new heavyweight
champion Of the world.
House-Buresh
This is the way the big bouts re-
suited. Thursday night Elwood |
House, 1876 or 100, met Buresh and
stayed with him an hour and ten
minutes. Then Buresh threw him
bodily off the mat and the elevated
platform. House was injured so
that he was unable to finish the
match which of course went to Bur
esh. House is one Of the best men
in the state.
