1t was crude praise, perhaps, but heart
felt, just as much so as the parting words
which his son-in-law whispered In his ear
few minutes before his departure with
Sylvia for the continent, whence they were
to return direct to New York.
'Father-in law" he said, you're brick.
I'll look after Sylvia all right don't you

for that tour through Devonshire. I'm
sorry you can't make up your mind and

his best professional tone.
Mr. Shields made ,grimace.

ENTRIES FLOODING
STATE FAIR OFFICE

The office of the Montana state
fair at Helena is being flooded
with entries in the agricultural
and livestock divisions according
to Lewis PenwelI, president of the
state fair board, who is very OPP
timistic regarding the outlook for
a greater state fair than has been
held in years. The premium book,
which contains offers of prizes to-
falling more than S25, 900 has re-
Gently reached the exhibitors,
county agents and county commits
siOners and the flood of entries be-
gan to reach Helena Immediately
following the receipt of the books,
according to the state fair presi-
dent.
The clerks in the entry depart
ment will be busy for the next 80
days entering the proposed exhibits
of enthusiastic Montanans who hope
to take home a large money prize
and cup following the annual show
which will open on Labor day, Sep
tember 9Th and continue until Sat
urday September 18th.
The pure bred ram sale is to be a
feature of the big show, according
to Mr.. Penwell who is one of the
largest sheep breeders in the state.
Tn ram sale is being conducted at
the state fair grounds by the Mont
ana wool growers association and the
pure bred sheep association. Last
year the sale netted more in COM
mission than in any previous two
years and those who have charge of
the sale this year are looking forward
to an even greater sale this Sep
tember. Judge Lincoln of Salt Lake
has been engaged by the Montana
state fair as judge in the sheep di-
vision and the Wool growers have
engaged him as auctioneer for the
ram sale.

IN TWO PARTs-PART Two
THE STORY SO FAR

OF all the inhabitants Of the town of
Melhampton, the one you least would
| expect to have any evil traits, would
be Mr.. Tidd. He was the banker On
the other hand, there did crop up under
| peculiar circumstances, something that
shocked the community. 1t came about
through the example of the town vetrin-
airy who seemed to be making and saving
more money than Mr.. Tidd. The veterin-
ary was playing the stock exchange.
Then Mr.. Jeremiah Preedy comes to
town. He is. entertained by the banker
and Mr. Tidd's daughter, Sylvia.
And now the story:

at him with wide open eyes. How long
are you going to stay here then 2"

in Devonstire," she declared.
"I'm willing to put up with that for a
time, anyway" he assured her.
"But what made you stay here at all?
Il was just moving through" he ex-
planned innoeently, and the place seemed
attractive.
She laughed up at him.
s'But how did you get to know dad?"

Mr.. Tidd knew then without a doubt
that this young man actually belonged to
the world famed firm of Preedy, and he re-
allied with a little aching heart, the i'm
mense satisfaction with which, in his daily
report, to headquarters, he could have cas-.

so distinguished a correspondent of the
firm These things, however, meant but

DETAILS PLANNED
FOR LEGION TRIP
EXPECT 10000 VETERANS WILL
MAKE THE PARIS
JOURNEY
Contracts Have Been Made With
French Hotels and Busses are Lin
ed Up to Transport Sightseers; Ex-
pense to be About $3.50 per Person

Arrangement have been practic-
| aIIy completed for the entertain
ment members of the American lie
gion IN Paris during the convention
of 1927, according to w. IL. Jones
state adjutant. Mr.. Jones has re-
turned from BoZeanan where he
was i'm conference with j. j. Wick
er. national chairman of the Paris
convention committee of the le-
gion.
For the first time in history the
French hotels have made contracts
more than a year in advance Civ
ing special rates to the expected
10000 veterans. These contracts
we're difficult to obtain, owing to the
unstable value of the franc. French
railways have granted a SO per cetn
reduction in fares from seaports to
Paris and return said Mr.. Jones.
This reduction will equal 100000
at the normal rate of exchange val
uatiOn.
Arrangements for the buses to take
the legionaires from Paris to the
battlefield have also been completed
it was said. entire capacity of the
buses in Paris is only 5000 men, so
it was necessary to contract for the
use of all those in the other French
cities and many from Belgium. Forty
per cent of the buses of England will
be used in this excursion, said Mr..
Jones.
Registration of applicants for the
trip will start November Is. The
veterans application will take tho
place of a passport for the trip and
will cost him but 81 instead of the
usual S25.
Delegates from Montana to the
will sail from Montreal.
It is expected that this state will
send at least 300 men to the meeting.
The minimum cost for the round
trip from Montana will be about $3.50
it is estimated by MT. Jones.
Members of the American Legion
who have been in good standing for
1926 and 1927 will be allowed to
make the trip, which will require
from 23 to 27 days. American rail
ways will grant round trip tickets
at the price of single fare and the re-
turn trip coupon will be good until
December, 1927.
