"On the contrary, Mr.. Samuel Rea

Railroad System, wrote August 25,
1926
From the standpoint of the
Pennsylvania Railroad System there
Is no necessity now, or SO far as
one can see in the future. for the
construction of an additional line of
transportation between the Southern
Railroads and those running north
of Washington.
For the purpose OF securing tho
best route for all Of the railroads

the Richmond Washington Company
was formed some rs years ago and
acquired control of the line between

with the whole southeastern por-

During the brief time the consider

before the people of the county last
Fall, 1925, before the Representatives
of the company abandoned their cam
paign, it was considered and acted
upon by five local civic orga niZationS
of the county. namely: Leeway, Clal

LEONARD JACOBS HAS
ICY BATH IN RIVER

Leonard Jacobs, Vida ranchel
and son Of Martin Jacobs of this
city, had an icy bath in the Mis-
souri, river Monday evening about
$50 when he broke through the
ice as he was walking across. ia
cobs had come to town in the
morning leaving his car on the
south side of the river and walk
ing across. When he started back
in the evening he carried an arm
full of packages. Evidently he.
stepped on a place where the ice
was very thin. 1t broke under his
weight and he fell in to his arm
pits. By throwing his arms out
and grasping the firm edges around
the weak spot he was able to haul
himself out and get to shore with
out any help. At the time of the
accident Mr.. and Mrs. ]. D. Cor
rie were on the north bank in
their motor car but were power
less to help him. They brought
him back to town and he spent
The night with his parents before
proceeding back to Vida. The
fact that the weak spot in the
zee was small is the only thing
saved Mr.. Jacobs from a more
Unfortunate accident.

.MITSAREFF MOVES HIS
FACTORY TO DETROIT

B. D. Mitsareff, well known
Great Northern employee of this
city and inventor of the Mitsareff
wheel clamp, returned this week
from a months visit in the mid
die west, including Detroit, Chi
cago and other cities Of that sec
ton of the country. Mr.. Mitsa-
ref says that they were having
very severe weather while he was
there. The hard wind storms
were especially disagreeable. At
one place near Chicago there was
a snow storm with the snow on an
average of II feet deep. He says
he found business and economic
conditions there fairly prosperous.
Mr.. Mitsareff is planning on
moving the shops where he makes
his wheel clamps, to Detroit as he
believes it to be a more central
location and thinks that in a large
center of that kind he can pro-
mote his project better. He has
lived in Montana for fifteen years
and says he feels very sorry to
leave this part Of the country.
Mr.. Mitsareff has always been a
loyal booster for Wolf Point and
has proved himself to be a good
business man and a loyal worker.
His invention is proving valuable
and coming into general use with
ear repair men. This community
IS sorry to see him leave and wish
nim every success in his new To-
cation.

BOSTON, Mass, April 26.
Smoking flappers and their escorts
throwing away lighted matches
and stubs, are blamed by William
A. Z. Bazeley, state commissioner
Of conservation, for starting near
~ 100 forest fires in the common
wealth that caused thousands Of
dollars loss damages Patriots day,
the most recent Massachusetts
holiday.
The commissioner says that the
modern youth are making a tred
light district of the crossroads that
lead off from the main state high
ssAys into the forests"
The commissioner made this
known in an address before the
Kiwanis Club of Cambridge at
the weekly luncheon at the Colonial
Club. After referring to the COM
monwealth's program under Gov.
Fuller in the preservation Of the
forests, he created a sensation by
presenting reports of state for
essers showing that hundreds of
bobbed hair girls and their escorts
drive their cars into roads and
paths off the main highway and
indulge In extreme ~petting
parties" during which they smoke
and careIessly hurl lighted stubs
and matches into the brush.
The forestcrs also reported that
they found that nearly 100 fires
we're started by participants in
these ''petting parties, the blazes
spreading over wide area and
causing a heavy loss.
In further describing the pet
ting bees" the commissioner re-
ported that these young people
carefully shut off all lights Of the
cars with the exception Of the red
tail light. Scores Of red lights can
be seen sometimes for hundreds
Of yards. Hence the byroads have
been classified as red light dis
trictsv by the state foresters.
