"To him that hath shall be
given, and to him that hath not
shall be taken away even that
which he seemeth to have" A
quotation from the scriptures
that comes to us from youthful
Sunday School days. We could
not understand it then and don't
now. 1t does not look like a
square deal. 1t so patty fits the
present situation that it occurred
also to Editor "Liney" of the
Havre Promoter and impelled
him to open an editorial on the
normal school matter: 'To him
that hath shall be given" We
think this scriptural passage must
have been a part of the carefully
and scientifically prepared stand
ard of rating employed by broth
ers Black, Baker and Fisher.
Northern and Eastern Mon
tana had no state institutions and
very urgently needed access to a
school for training teachers. Then
came the normal commission act
by the legislature, and Northern
and Eastern Montana seemeth to
have a look-in for this much
needed school. Next comes the
scientific commission and taketh
it away. We still have no state
institutions. This protest is not
inspired by Wolf Points failure
to be chosen. The basic idea of
a second normal school was to
serve the parts of the state far
removed from Dillon. That was
the first and foremost c~onsidera-
ton. But the fact is that virtual
ly adj of Northern Montana is
fully as far by rail from Billings
as it is from Dillon.
We believe that a jury or COM
mission of men and women, chos-
en- from ALL parts of the state,
would have voted to locate the
second normal in any one of sew
en- of the remaining candidate
cities in preference to Billings.
Justice and ordinary processes of
reasoning would have compelled
them to so decide.
Montana's novel experiment in
our vexatious questions
through an outside commission has
failed dismally. The scientific
standards of requirements en-
ployed by the commission have
failed to produce common sense
results. Rather than establishing
q second school at Billings the
state and the students would be
ahead by doubling the capacity of
the Dillon Normal and saving con-
siderable overhead.
Northern and most of eastern
Montana is still out in the cold
and must send its normal students
to North Dakota to get their
training. and must pay taxes to
support the state institutions that
are punched in the copper4bear-
ing corner of the state. But we
are growing in wealth and votes.
the old order will bel
changed. But it is a long, weary,
expensive road.

quite clearly hat straight-away
flying is not the hazardous occu-

multaneous announcements of air
mileage shows that since 1922
Army planes have flown more
than one million miles with but
one fatal accident, while within
approximately the same period of

over nearly one-fourth the same

equivalent to more than 20 trips

In little more than a half hour,
the speeches had been concluded
and a motion offered to strike

assurance was given that Newman
would be retained. This motion
was carried by reclamation. Then
the students filed quietly from the

THE ENGLISH CHANNEL, Jan.
1.-THE Berlins, Irving and
Ellin, saw the shores of France
today, but they saw it from be-
hind the curtained portfolios of
the Royal Suite" on the Levia-
than, with their doors locked and
denying themselves to a horde of
reporters and a handful Of friends
who had attempted to welcome"
them.
IN Locked i'm Suite
The honeymooners locked them
selves in their suite early today and
never once peeped out when the
Leviathan dropped anchor In Cher
bourg harbor and remained there
for two hours discharging passen-
gers on board q tender.
Refuse Even to Pose
From Paris there had come a
horde of reporters and a small
army Of photographers but the
Berlins refused to leave their suite
even to pose for pictures.
Messages were sent in to the
honeymooners by stewards ana at
tempts were made to reach the
room by telephone, but all to no
end. Even those who had declared
they we're intimate friends OF the
Berlins failed to get any response.
Captain Hartley of the Leviathan
spoke on behalf of the honeymoon
couple.
"AlI those two kids want is to be
left alone" said Captain Hartley
good naturally to the disappointed
welcoming party" ''They have
been very quiet through the whole
trip. ~
Kept to Their Cabins
"You fellows shouldn't feel so
badly. A horde of reporters tried
to storm their suite and wanted
to break down the door before the
Leviathan left New York"
Passengers on the Leviathan said
the Berlins had been seen but COM
paratively little during the trip
and there was no indication that
any radio message of forgiveness
I had come by radio from the father
of the young bride.
Berlin probably wants to write
new song now" said one pas
senger. 'T1e probably wants to
change that All Alone song to
Leave Us Alone"
