THE "BABY BANDITS"
Montana Record-Herald)

The baby bandits met the usual fate one
hopes all the boys who read of their escapades will
observe their finish. For a few days or a week or SO
thew ran wild, stole automobiles, shot at officers, held
up campers, and engaged in various kinds of lawless-
ness. But they tired of that even. They wanted to-
see their folks, to visit their home, and they went
back to Pueblo where the family had lived when they
started on their deplorable outbreak. Then what
happened? The older boy was arrested, pleaded
guilty to robbery, and starts to prison to live in a cell
behind iron bars and stone walls from 20 to 80 years.
The younger boy resisted arrest, and was shot
through the lungs and neck, so injured that 1t was
thought he had the barest chance to live: II ne lives
the reformatory and the prison will take the best
years of his life. ~
Boys who foolishly think that there may be
something to a criminal career, or to laWlessness OF
any kind, should ponder the affairs Of these two
boys. One was 10, the other IA. They have already
ruined their lives; one may have lost his. 1t was all
done in a few days, and the fun they got out of it
was so unsatisfying and so unsatisfactory was their
state as fleeing and hiding outlaws pursued by police
officers that they preferred to return home, where
the older one seemed glad to be arrested.
AS in every case of the kind, the moral is that
the one thing utterly destitute of results worth while,
and absolutely ruinous, is crime. The fates of these
two lads indicate the road for a sensible boy to shun.

JUST GETTING STARTED
Great Falls Tribune)

The feature of the August trade reviews is the
unanimity with which they concede the almost I'M
precedented business activity that has obtained in
every section of the country during this usually hum
drum month. Observers were of the opinion at the
close of 1925 and the beginning of 1926, that the
present year would not be as good as last year. But
in almost every line of business and trade it has been
better. Even the usual dull summer season, which
may be expected in the best of years, has in large
part failed to materialize.
In financial circles action has been taken to
avoid over-optimism and to curb the wave Of specu-
lative investment which so frequently accompanies
good times, and which, SAD to relate, so often puts
an end to them. The increase in the rediscOunt rate
by the federal reserve bank of New York was in the
initial movement in that direction and seems to have.
met with favor in financial circles throughout the
country.
During the closing months of this year Of good
business Montana is occupying a most pleasing po-
sition. The state has been favored with fine crop.
yields in almost every section. It will pour more than.
50,000,000 bushels of wheat into the lap Of the
world after the harvest and at prices which farm.
economists for the most part predict will be salts
factory.
The states other agricultural crops promise
equally well and the livestock industry is finding it.
self in a stronger position day by day. There is an.
expansion of Investigation in farming, a marked
interest in better methods Of farming, new activity
in the mining regions and a general optimism in the.
business world.
AS good as she is, Montana is just getting start

AUTOMOBILE FATALITIES

Well, 81 people lost their lives in automobile

VALENTINO DIES

ers who had done all that sympa-
thy and science and religion could
do to save his life.
The life of Rudolph Valentino
was colorful from the start He
was born in the little Italian vii
lage Csstellanetam on May g.,
1895. His full name was Ru-
dolpho Alfonzo Raffaelo Pierre
Filibert Guglielmi di Valentino
d'Antonguella. His mother was
the daughter of a Partisan doctor,
Pierre Filibert Barbin. His faith
err Giovanni G%uglielmi, was in his
youth a captain of italian cavalry
and later a veterinary doctor.
When Valentino YVES IL his
father died and the future screen
lover matriculated at Dante Ali
ghieri college. Finishing here at
the age of Is years, he entered
the military college, Del la Bap-
ionzs at Perugia. From this
school he was sent home because
of breaking discipline to see the
king who was visiting the school.
Next he went to Venice to try
for the naval examination but
failed there and returned home
for a year. He next entered the
military academy at Genoa. from
which he was graduated with the
degree of doctor of agriculture.
No Farmer
Finding farm life little to his
liking he drew all the legacy COM
ing to him from his father and
went to Paris. The Riviera and
Monte Carlo followed quickly and
at last Paris again and bankrupt
cy.
To America
America attracted him and he
arrived in New York December
%, 1918, with $4,000 given him
by his mother. He set out ia
learn English by taking private
lessons. Between his studies and
odd jobs he began frequenting
cafes where he took up dancing.
A Dancer At Maxims
The start of his career as a pro-
fessional dancer came when he
persuaded the head waiter at
Maxims to give him a job as an
entertainer. His next engage
ments were as a dancing partner,
but he discarded this in favor of
travelling with a musical comedy
road show from which he parted
at Ogden, Utah. Later at Oak
land he became a dancing instruc-
tor.
In Movies AS Heavy"
Drifting to Los Angeles he met
Emmett J. Flynn, film director,
who gave him his first part in pic
lures as a "heavy' at $50 a
week. After appearing in sever
al pictures he was selected by
June Mathos, scenario writer, for
the part of Julio in "The Four
Horsemen of the Apocalypse" a
role which started him on the road
to fame.
The film career went on apace
and Valentino became a matinee
idol with his appearance in 1921
in "The Sheik," the first of a ser
les of desert romances.
Valentino leaves a brother and
sister in Italy. The brother, Al
berto Guglielmi, an attorney, with
his family was a recent visitor at
the stars home in Hollywood.

CIV Stephen James,

Washington's rush hours come

ween% four-thirty and five o'clock
in the afternoon.
In the morning 10000 govern
ment workers of all shades of de-
gree scurry TO be at their desks

the day and the mad rush for mo-
-or buses, street cars and private
automobiles that carry them back
70 their apartments, suburban
homes. or to places of amusement.
Allowing half an hour for
lunch, a seven hour day offers a
tempting work period, as is elo-
quently attested by the thousands
on the waiting list of the Civil
Service Commission seeking jobs
with Uncle Sam.
In addition government clerks
are entitled to a months vacation
each year. and they may, if sup
ported by a physicians certificate,
claim sick leave to the extent of
one month with pay. The vaca-
ton month often dwindles to two
weeks or less however, since any
absence from duty, no matter how
small, is charged against the an
nual leave. Otherwise the clerks
are not allowed the, many leeways
which the average employer free
ly gives. certain bureaus, for in
stance, deducting fifteen minutes
from the vacation period if an
employee is two or three minutes
late in reaching his desk.
keeping Cool with Coolidge
promises to become more than a
slogan with the installation of
electric refrigeration in the White
House ice box. No longer will
the ice man leave dirty tracks or
Mrs. Coolidge's clean kitchen
floor.
AS a matter of fact, it has been
q long .ime since the White
House bought ice. For many
years the presidential ice has beer
obtained from an ice plant built
to supply that commodity to the
White House kitchen and the
State, War and Navy Building.
Before the Civil War ice was
cut from the Kennebec River in
Maine and shipped by schooner
TO Washington and stored for la
ter consumption.
Earlier Presidents, Washington,
Adams, Jefferson and Madison
among them. got their ice from
the Potomac River near by and
stored it in a great cellar under
ground. This ice house was des-
troyed in 1912 when the British
burned the old Executive Man
sion. The first ice box approach
ing modern standards was installed
in Lincoln's time, but it was a
crude affair compared with today's
best. Now Mrs. Coolidge has the
most up-to-date method. but not
any better than the kind being
installed in thousands Of homes
throughout the country.

a salmon census in Alaskan
waters and the operation of 2
diamond-bsck terrapin farm in
North Carolina. Both Of these
undertakings are under the super
vision of the Bureau Of Fisheries.
The salmon count is taken as
the fish go up stresm to the
spawning ground, while the ter
repin farm is operated to prevent
Shat deIicacy, esteemed by many
along the Atlantic seaboard, from
becoming extinct. The ~terrapin
are raised until they are able to
forage for themselves, when
they are turned loose in public
waters. The knowledge gained in
breeding them is then prepared
