UVHe community spirit in Mon
tana forty or fifty years ago
n had not arrived at the intense
stage Of rivalry which character
ICES more modern conditions. We
had no basball teams, no basketball
champions, no organizations to slim
ulate civic pride, no uplift societies,
and we apparently cared little about
che civic activities of our neighbOrs.
In fact, they were too far away for us
to become interested or enViOus, and,
if we thought about them at all, most
likely wished them well in any en-
terprise they saw fit to undertake.
Community life in those days was
rather haphazard, anyway, for the
units making it up were not deeply
rooted to the soil. A Job was the
only excuse for most Of the young
men and boys, who counted the
largest in the number Of inhabitants
of the sparsely settled country, to
Iinger at any one place, and there
fore ties of friendship and loyalty
TO the community were subject to
easy and rather constant breakage.
Sometimes with a few dollars saved
up, even the loss of a job did not
mean a move to a more likely indus
trial location, and occasionally q
winter would be spent in unprOduc-
tive idleness.
In situations of this nature, one
would naturally wonder what we
did to kill time, as such entertain
ment as the movies, radio, phOnO
graph or automobile were then Un
dreamed of. There were very few

FIRE THREATENS
TOWN OF NC CABE
Heroic Efforts Save Many Buildings
After Flames Start to Spread
Livery Stable Burns Down.

Observation-Disclosures was mar
rowly avoided Wednesday at McCabe,
a small town on the Scobey branch
of the Great Northern, when the city
livery stable caught fire, endangering
all the nearby buildings and setting
fire to many shortly before noon.
After heroic efforts of the citizens
of the town, the flames on buildings
near the confagration were extin-
guished, but the stables were burned
to the ground and were a total loss,
with everything in them.
For a time it appeared that all the
business part of the town would burn,
but a water line was formed and with
the aid of fire extinguishers and
buckets the fire was fought down.
A strong northwest wind swept the
fire in a direction away from the
buildings greatly aiding the fire fight
ers. Had the wind been from the
southwest the majority of the build
ings of the town would undoubtedly
have been consumed.
The heavy rainfall of three days
ago and a reserve of several thous-
and gallons Of rain water created in
large cisterns near the fire enabled
the citizens to successfully fight the
fire which would have cleaned the
town week ago, when not more
than a hundred gallons Of water was
on reserve.

EXHIBITION GAME AT

PlentywOOd Team Will Take On Gre
nora Fence Busters In Exhibition
Game-Will Warm Up Slowly.

Next Sunday the members of the
PlentywoOd team will journey to
Brush Lake, where they will put on
an exhibition game with Grenora, on
the opening day of that popular re-
sort.
The game will be in the nature of
a practice for the local team and they
will not extend themselves, even
though they should be defeated.
Manager Steamer will bring the
boys up to condition gradually, rath-
er than risk injuring the players by
letting them go their best right off
the "bat."
The first real game of the season
will be with Scobey on May 10Th at
Scobey, and a return game will be
played with the Daniels county boys
in this city Decoration Day, May
30th. It is hoped by this time that
the full lineup will be on the grounds
ready for action.
The next big game for the Plenty
wood leather smackers will be in a
baseball tournament at Regina, when
Scobey, Weyburn, Moose Jaw, Plen-
tywoOd, Regina and several other
salaried teams will battle for a purse
of $1,000. $4,000 goes to the win
ner, $4,000 to the second best anC
$500 to the third best.
The local boys are out practicine
whenever the weather will permit
and are working into shape. Two
players have not yet arrived, and eff.
forts are being made to secure addi
tional recruits in case of accidents Of
sickness should disable some of tn,
players.
Manager Buck" Steamer is very
optimistic as to the coming season
for the local team and barring an!
unlocked for accidents, he feels tina
the local aggregation of ball tosser
will be one of which this city vii
be justly proud.
