Bill" Taylor Visits
His Many Friends

w. L. (Bill) Taylor came from
Great Falls Tuesday morning
and spent the day renewing local
acquaintanceships, much to the
surprise and pleasure of his many
friends. Back in 1919 and 1921
Bill was on the Herald mechanical
force as foreman and linotype OPP
orator. In 1920 and 1922 he was
with the Poplar Standard in the
same capacity. From Poplar he
went to the Great Falls Tribune
as foreman of the job printing
composing room. Recently he was
promoted to the position of esti-
mater and city salesman, which is
only one notch below that of sup
erintendent of the printing and
supply department.
He is visiting the county seat
towns of this corner of the state
in the interest of his company.
While here he made The Herald
office his headquarters and it
seemed like old times to have him
around. His friends n delighted
that his fine ability and personal
ity are being rewarded. From
here Mr.. Taylor went to Circle,
Wednesday morning.

KITTOCK BOUND
over AT SCOBEY
CHARGED WITH MURDER OF
CARL SEIGERT, NIECE'S
TESTIMONY STANDS

Scobey, July 19.-After a pre-
liminary hearing, which lasted
Friday afternoon and Saturday,
the state rested its case versus Joe
Kittock, charged with the murder
of Carl Seigert, more than a year
ago. The defense waived its
right to introduce evidence on be-
half of the defendant and he was
bound over to district court and
is now out on bond.
Little Elsie Hedderick, the g.
year-old. niece of Joe Kittock, and
the states principal witness, was
on the stand approximately six
and a half hours; during about
five hours of the time undergoing
a grilling cross examination which
might have exhausted a person of
mature years. She held to the
main points Of her original story,
although she forgot minor details.
Counsel for the defense tried re-
peatedly to break down her story.
Says He Shot Man
Elsie's story alleged that her.
uncle, Joe Kittock, and a man
whom she did not know were quar-
reling over some whiskey. She
said that her uncle was drunk, that.
he went into the "front room
and got a gun and shot the man.
She said she became frightened
and ran to her Aunt Armies
house, the Tom Kittock place, next
door. Elsie alleged that her
Aunt Carrie came after her i'm
mediately and took her home and
told her not to tell about the
shooting. She insisted that Aunt
Carrie and her Grandmother Kit
took were both present when the
man was shot, and that they all
told her that if she repeated the
story to anyone she would be
punished. When she went back to
the Kittock place, Elsie said, the
body was gone and they talked
of it being Sin the cellar" and
she said she heard her uncle say
he would stake it to the creek"
Elsie declared that she slept that
at her Aunt Annie's place
and through the kitchen window
she watched her uncle Joe place
the body in a car and drive off.
Court adjourned to the Kittock
place to locate the position of the
car, which the little girl explained.
Kittock Denies Story
Elsie said she did not know the
name Of the mar who wa shot,;
never had seen him before, but
Joe Kittock, when confronted
the story of Elsie, said sit
was a lie" and "that he did not
kill Seigert."
The body of Seigert was taken
the river May 16, 1925, and
Identified, but no clue was discov-
cred as to the murderer until lit
lie Elsie told her story recently to
Mrs. Gust Dahlquist, at whose
nome she has been staying.

BURESH AWARDED TWO
FALLS IN SAT. MATCH

The big wrestling match be-
tween Stanley Buresh and Carl
Van Wurden, held at the Liberty
theatre last Saturday night had a
rather unsatisfactory ending. AS
there was no Herald representative
present it can be reported only
according to the sayso of certain
of the adherents of each wrestler.
Van Wurden, who lays claim to
the middle weight championship
Of Canada, weighed 1874, it is said.
Buresh is claimed to have weighed
around IT'S or $50. Tom Alley,
who happened to be in town that
night, refereed the match. Alley
is a professional wrestler who has
been here at different times and
held umerou matches.
Van Wurden won the first fall
in AT minutes with a hold describ-
ed as a standing up cross body
arm scissors. Buresh was not
pinned to the mat but conceded
a fall to save himself from pun
ishment.
Buresh won the second fall with
q body scissors.
The Big Argument
The third fall was declared in
favor of Buresh by the referee and
that is where the unpleasantness
began. The hold is described as a
body scissors combined with what
is termed a face lock. VanWurden
does not claim to be pinned as he
was above the opponent but it is
understood the fall was given to
Buresh to avoid injury to Van
Wurden. There was loud protest
from Van Wurden and his friends
who claimed that the fall had not
been conceded and that Buresh
was not entitled to it. He offer
ed to throw Buresh in Is minutes
if he would come back to the mat.
A return match between these
men should be very interesting.
Van Wurden says that he is
very sorry that his first match in
Wolf Point turned out as it did
that he does not consider that he
was fairly beaten as he was still
struggling to get out of the hold

bltlon to possess power The desire
to rule is deep rooted in the human
race.
1t is a very natural ambition and
exceedingly dangerous. In it's proper
proportion 1t is good. When it be-
comes an alma astering motive, life
becomes warped
The man who makes gold his god
loses the power to appreciate other
gods. There is something profoundly
tragic in the figure of a man who
makes his million and gives all the
effort OF his life to it and at the end
finds that all his money will buy is
stale and taSteless. He cannot read
a book, he cannot enjoy a. picture,
even the color of a lovely rug Is lost
on him. He understands one COM
modify only, money, and money is his
god
The business OF education is the es-
tablishing standards of value. 1t
should help the boy and girl to decide
what is most greatly worth while. Is
money the thing? Most certainly
money is needed. But the education
which simply equips men to make a
living. or more than a living, Is no
education at all.
The business Of education Is to
throw open the doors and windows
that youth may look out upon all of
life.
Education should be an introduction
to life. The teachers business is to
lead youth into the courts of kings,
the studios of artists, the libraries
of poets, the labora tories of scientists:
to introduce youth to the great of
earth, that youth may know these
great and think with them.
The inordinate love of money de-
feats this chief business of life. 1t
side-tracks men. 1t makes them con-
tent with but a fraction of their
patrimony. 1t lulls them to a false
ease, a mean complacency. For under
standing, it substitutes meager posses
sion. For the appreciation Of lowell
ness. it offers well stocked barns. For
the lift of the soul and the glow of
the heart, it yields bare figures in
book.
1t is good to make living, unless
the making defeats the living.

money and the things that his money
would buy more than he loved Christ
and service. Therefore, "he turned
sorrowfully away" And the rich
fool, with his bursting barns, was
failure because he measured lifeS val
ues with the money yardstick, where
as 1t was decreed that the very night
on which he had congratulated him
self about his abundance, and there
fore his safety, his soul was required
of him. and others took the money for
which he had worked and saved.
The besetting curse of our own age
is the inordinate love of money, and
the worst evils or today flow from
commercialiZed amusements through
which the people are exploited for the
sake Of Sordid gain.
While the love of money is not the
only root of evil, it is, as the revised
version of the text asserts, "a root
of all kinds of evil and the only way
to master and overcome this love of
money, which always fruits in evil.
is to administer money as a stewart
of God He cannot serve God and
mammon but we can serve God with
'mammon.
Spaulding said The power to make
and save money carries with it the
destruction of the power to give ii
away"
But the Christian force of regener-
alton, which gives to the individual "A
new heart and changes his entire
character and conduct. restores the
power to give money away. and thus
to master it rather than to be mas
tered by it. All business. therefore.
should be a means and not an end.
And those who are engaged in amass-
ing money should keep sense of de-
pendence both upon God and society.
and should cultivate, thereby the
Christian ideals which inculcate de-
sire to give, rather than to receive.
Jesus Christ said. ut is more
Greek means, literally,
it is happier-"to give than it is to
receive" One Of our great American
phila anthropists exemplfied this prin-
ciple when he said. "A rich man who
dies rich, dies disgraced.'
And that was a touching and reas-
suring incident which occurred when
the safe OF another multi-millionaire
was opened after his death. and when
the searchers for treasure found only
