derneath some old tar paper that had
been put rel it TO keep the wind out,
apparently. The cabin is an old one
east of Garneill.
The picture shows two cowboys
trying to rope a horse, all headed in
to the foreground. At the left corner
a crudely painted buffalo skull, ly-
ing on the ground instead of in the
position in which Russell later came
to draw his mark, and the initials
"CMR"are seen beside it, with no
date.
The painting is on an old piece
of cardboard that might have come in
a cracker box. It is crude but shows
that richness of action which char
acteriZed Russells work from the
first. The fact that the picture is IN
dated may show that it was indeed
one Of RusselI's earliest works, made
at the time when he hardly thought
OF himself seriously as an artist and
was merely painting for pastime
while stopping at this cabin with
some early day rancher, or while
wrangling horses somewhere.
Mr.. and Mrs. Russell are now in
Los Angeles and the picture, which
was purchased by the Como store in
Great Falls, awaits his return for pos
sible Identification as a genuine re-
preventative of the first work of the
man who has been said to have
made greater achievement in his
sphere than has any other MOntanan
in any other"

APARTMENT HOUSES
CHANGING LIFE IN U. S,
Study of Families Shows Tendency
of Owners to Abandon Small
DWELLINGS.

How the American home is chang
ing from the smaller one and two
family dwellings to the apartment
house is shown by a study of families
provided for by one-family dwellings.
In 1927 5S3 per cent We're housed in
this type of dwelling. In 1922 this
percentage shranl< to 47.6. and in 1928
TO 45.S on the other hand, the num-
Der of families provided for in apart
ment houses increased 23.1 per cent
in 1921, to 1913 per cent in 1922 and
30.7 per cent in 1928.
In other words. for every three
families who found living quarters in
one-family houses two were housed
in apartments. What is more, the
great maiority of Luodern one-family
houses are similar 10 the apartment
In size and arrangement of rooms,
These facts are having d profound
effect on the household equipment
market. They represent a tendency
not in keeping with our best American
