GETS "a YEARS
FOR AUTO Theft
Frank Frost Convicted in Fed
eral Court at TacOma-Deputy
Holland a Witness

Deputy Sheriff Roscoe Holland re-
turned Monday from Tacoma, where
he journeyed a week ago Wednesday
to testify in federal court against
Frank Frost, accused of the theft of
a Buick coupe at Elma, Wash. Frost
was convicted and sentenced to serve
from two to four years in the fedSr-
al penitentiary at McNeiPs Island.
The car is still in the possession Of
Sheriff James Smith pending adjust
ment of claim for insurance.
Frost, who had been in Washington
for some time, arrived in Bozeman
about month ago, driving the coupe.
He was accompanied by a man nam.
ed Carl Rock. They proceeded to a
place on the Cottonwood, and few
nights later two tires were stolen
from Walter Workman, resident of
that section. Workman complained
to Sheriff Smiths office. Search
was at once begun for Frost, but he
eluded arrest and drove out for the
west. A telephone message to a
deputy sheriff at Whitehall resulted
IN his being captured at that place,
Returned to Bozeman, Frost and
Rock pleaded guilty to the tire theft
in justice court and were sentenced
to serve five and three months, re-
spectively, in the county Jail. Then
the federal authorities filed a CON-
plant against Frost in connection
with the Buick theft, and he was
turned over to a United States mar
shall and taken to Tacoma, where last
week he was tried in federal court
with the result stated. Deputy Hol-
land was summoned as a witness for
the prosecution.

SNOW and COLD
HALT THRESHING
ALL over STATE
Precipitation General and Tenn
perature Around Freezing
Mark-SOme Damage

Threshing operations in the Gal
latin valley, which had been in full
swing since Sunday morning, were
brought to a SUDDEN halt Wednesday
evening when snow, accompanied by
a cold wind, began falling and con-
tinued until two inches or more were
on the ground.
Thursday the snow had ceased
drifting down, but the sky remained
overcast and the temperature hover
ed around the freezing mark. Unless
an immediate change in the weather
develops, threshing cannot be resum-
ed before the first of next week.
Throughout the state, says the
weekly crop report issued by the di-
vision of publicity of the state de-
partment of agriculture at Helena,
threshing has been largely at stand
still because of rain, snow, and cold
weather. Wednesday nights snow
was general over the central, north
ern, and western parts of tn state
reports show, and added greatly to
the difficulties under which farmers
are laboring.
Fost week six inches of snow was
rCpyrtod in Fergus counsy and kill
ing frost in Pondera. A light ha
in Rayalli slightly injured some OF
the Mcintosh apples, but the quality
of apples going to market is the best
in the history CT the Bitter Root, ac-
cOrding to Edward Hickey, state hor.
ticulturist. Some grain crops have
been damaged by spFouting and
bleaching.
Fall blowing is proceeding with
early planted fields of winter whea+
lOOkins good. DiscCulagemou ovel
smut losses is causing some reduction
in acreage in Fergus COZ ". Rye i
still being seeded. The weather has
been too cool for ripering of cora, bu
some seed has been picked in 2oose
velt, Prairie and Hill counties. Th'
potato harvest is in progress in Phil
lips county. The third cutting of al
falfa IS about completed. Seed pea
in Galiatin are showing some damag
due to excessive wet weather.

WINTRY WEATHER
HALTS EXPOSITION
ON SECOND DAY
Events Will Be Resumed, How
ever, This AfternOOn-New
Hall is Dedicated T

Extension of the Fourth Annual
Gallatin County fair program for one
day, to include Saturday, was an
nOunced Thursday morning by Wal
ter L. Mecklenburg, fair secretary.
Thursdays program was cancelled
because of the snow and cold, and
viii be run off today. In turn to-
days events will be put on Saturday.
The fair grounds were open Thurs
day to afford visitors an opportunity
to inspect the exhibits, but there
were no other activities. Because Of
this fact, admission to the grounds
was reduced to 25 cents.
Hit by Chilly Blasts
The big exposition, which in point
of exhibits, shows, and entertain
ments sets a new record in Gallatin
county fair annals, opened at 9
o'clock Wednesday morning. The
weather at that hour was all that
could be desired-clear and warm
and crowds began to gather at the
grounds to spend the morning hours
J in looking over the displays. The IA
vorable weather conditions, however,
disappeared late in the afternoon,
and by the time the evening pro-
gram was to be put on the sky was
heavily banked with clouds and a
chilling wind was blowing.
The grandstand was packed with
people, who shivered in the raw
blasts as they listened to the band
concert. Soon snowflakes began to
drift down, and in view of the unprO-
pitious conditions decision was re-
luctantly reached to postpone all of
the evening program except the style
show, which was held despite the
Threatening storm. Many Of the
spectators, however, left the grand
stand before it was concluded, and a
little later the snow, which continued
until well after midnight and blanket
ed the ground to a depth of two
inches or more, swept down from the
Bridgers.
Dedicate New Hall
The outstanding event Of the
opening day was the dedication, al
/ p. M, of the new Agricultural ant
Industrial hall, following which Gov.
ernor J. E. Erickson unlocked the
portals of the big building and Of
ficially opened Gallatin county''

BILLINGS chosen
FOR NORMAL SITE
BY STATE BOARD
Certain Elementary Schools Re-
lieved of 9Th Grade Exam
inatiOn Requirement

Billings was selected as the IOca-
ton of the proposed Eastern Mon
tana Normal school; elementary
schools maintaining a certain degree
of proficiency were relieved of state
eighth grade, examination require
ments, and other matters were con-
sidered by the state board of educa-
ton at its quarterly meeting in Hell
ena Monday.
Selection. of Billings as the new
normal school site over nine other
candidates followed the recommends
ton Of three normal school presi-
dents from other states who were
asked to make a survey and report.
Accessibility was the big factor in
the report, which also declared that
the tributary population to Billings
from which students would be drawn
is TT, 7,544. Other favorable points
considered were financial stability,
strong civic organization, educational
resources, public library facilities, and
like advantages, with an ideal loca-
ton upon a 5Z-acre site.
Adopt Standards
Regarding the eighth grade exam
ination matter, the board adopted a
set of standards, to which all ele-
mentary schools, whether public, pri-
vate, or parochial, must adhere if
they are to be exempt from the re-
| quirements. They are:
"1. No school shall be accredited
which maintains a school term Of
fewer than ITO days net, excluding
all vacations and holidays.
"2. The school premises, building
and equipment must conform to the
standards set for a superior rura
school and must grade 80 per cent
perfect on these points.
90. The teacher in charge of thu
eighth grade must have at least
regular four-year high school educa
tion and two years normal training
carrying at least So quarter credits
or an equivalent amount of collegI
or university work including Is hours
in education. At least three-fourthl
of the entire teaching corps of tht
