the devastating hurricane which
swept the Florida east coast.
Three days in advance of the wind

about to be stricken.
The hurricane, Bureau officials
say, originated eff the west coast

scientists explain that the hurri-

eff a vacuum of great size due to

Elected by the rotation of the

RODENT DESTRUCTION

when Miss Helen Caldwell o1
Huntington, West Virginia anc
her companion, Miss Anna Mae
Wright, finish their campaign
sgainst rodents. Miss Caldwell
arrived here Tuesday morning to

through "a states of the Union.

they have found no rats in Mon

Miss Caldwell.
The girls have conducted cam
paigns in Great Falls, Butte, An

has been working in Williston
this week. Miss Caldwell is on
her return trip across the coun-
try and when she concludes it,

MONEY TO BURN
October 3 to 9 is Fire Proven
ton Week..

ZION WSeHJ
1852, 751,466!
That was our nations fre-los:
in 1925, according to the Nationa.
Board of Fire Underwriters, the
country's authority on the sub.
ject.
Who pays this tremendous an
nual tribute to destruction? Not
only the owners of the property
destroyed. Not only the families
of the 10000 persons who die in
fires every year. Every resident of
the country pays his share.
For this loss, exceeding half a
billion dollars annually. is what
keeps insurance-reIte high. These
destructive fres-one dwelling
house burns in our country every
four minutes day and night-are
what make it necessary for the
taxpayers to maintain fire de-
partments. The national fre-lcss
is a national problem. For that
reason, President Coolidge has
SCI apart this week for public in
struction as to the causes of fires
and means of preventing them.
Just what this half-b'llicn-dOl
lar drain on our national wealth
means may be fvisualized this
way. Uncle Sam, in taxing the
incomes of his people, allows an
exemption of 5000 for every
child. That IS exempted. presum-
ably, because it is sufficient tc
keep a child in school a year. On
this basis, it appears that the
money we waste by fires every
year would keep more than p
100000 children in school.
Yet we go on wasting it-for it
is waste because it can be pre-
vented. Insurance experts, fire
department. officials and engineers
firmly state that rs per cent of
the fires that cause this tremen-
dous total loss are preventable.
How? BY being careful with
matches, cigars and cigarettes?
Certainly; that would help. BY
keeping chimneys clean so that
they don't throw burning embers
upon roofs? Surely; that's a wise
p%recaution. These measures
all measures of common-sense
carefulness are necessary.
But caution alone won't save
our nation 1862, ISL .466. What
is more needed is precaution. The
reason why buildings burn is that
they ere built so they will burn.
The fundamental way to prevent
their burning is to build SO it
won't burn.
This doesn't necessarily mean
that the average homeowner must
adopt expensive masonry con
~struds;ons to substitute the tradi-
tional American wood-frame
house. Tt means to build wisely
with wcod-use wood but protect
it at its most vulnerable points
with the materials designed for
that purpose.

IN THE NATIONS CAPITAL
(By Stephen James)

The flag waves again in the
breezes over the White Hbuse.
To the initiated that means that
the President is at home. When
the President is out of town the
flag staff IS bare.
just now it means that the

and Prudence Prim, the white
collie dogs, n again in Washing
ton after a vacation of three
months in the Adirondack noun
.tains in New York.
They returned on a special
train, as would be expected, and
they were greeted by a cheering
-hrong at the Union Station where
they passed to their waiting auto
mobiles through the stately en-
trance reserved especially for the
President of the United States,
and used only on rare occasions
Iby others, such as visiting royalty.
The President has only a slight
coat of tan and a few fish stories
to show for his summer vacation.
He is, it seems, in robust health.
So is Mrs. Coolidge, to all appear
ances. The vacation probably
was a greater relief to her than
to her distinguished husband.

WOULD GAIN

The Importance of the county's
share in the present gas tax rev.
enue has been overestimated, ac-
cording to officials of the Mon
tana Automobile Association, who
explain that the county really gets
less than one per cent of the por-
zion allotted to the several coun-
ties. Of the total gas tax revenue
under the present law, 80 per cent
goes to the general state fund,
only Is per cent goes to the state
for road maintenance, and 55 per
CERT is divided among the Sc
counties.
If Initiative Good Roads Bill
No. 81 is carried on November 2,
they point out, the value of Fed
eral work to be done by the state
in each county with revenue from
the proposed gas tax increased by
one cent, plus Federal aid, will in
al counties be greater, and in
some several times greater than
