BEAR DOWN.

(From the Apache Warcry,"
Nogales High School paper).
In the eyes of many students
the two late trips-the one on
University Week and the one 60
Tombstone are mere waste
of money. But were they?
Didn't our students secure some
experience that may serve them
n good stead if they should be
fortunate to go on some sort of
trip next year?
Instead of sitting down and cry
ing over the money spent on
these trips, let's get down and try
to make better showing next
year. AS Mr.. Mitchell said, the
students sent to the University
did not have much time for prepa-
ration; and the tipping students got
stage-fright, nervous, or whatever
you want to call it-the re-
suit being the same. Also, they
were at disadvantage in going up
against schools that have two and
three hours of typewriting during
the day,
Let's go next year! Not neces-
sarily to secure revenge against
any particular school; but just the
same let us. IN the words Of Button
Salmon, "Bear Down" and show
The rest Of the State that there is
such a thing as the Nogales High
School and that one defeat only
leads her students on to do better
the next time.

Sen provides for state initiative in
building modern housing.
Old Treaties Must Go
In restoring Chinese national SOW
ereignty, he said, not only the extra
territorial rights of foreign powers
must go, but also their special rights
to navigate inland waters, to estab-
lish banks, and to gain other advan-
tages in trade. There can be no
peace in the far east, he concluded,
until this quarrel is adjusted to the
satisfaction of the Chinese.
Hoo Fears Communists
Koo made confidential remark in
dicative of his class fear and hatred
of communists, but said that they had
rendered valuable service to the Ma
tionalist movement and that no other
foreigners had given any aid to the
revolution. He added that when Sun
Vat Sen asked for help from British,
French and Americans, they all treat
ed him as a joke.

report many new features now in
nreparation which will be added to
the program and will supplement the
regular and traditional features of
the exposition.
The first official Montana state fair
was held in Helena in 1902. A fair
has been held continuously every year
since that date and the exposition
has grown to be one of the largest
in the northwest. All the depart
ments of the fair have experienced
remarkable growth but the greatest
growth has been reported in the ag-
ricultural and livestock divisions.
Some of the finest livestock in the
middle and northwest was exhibited
at the Montana State Fair in 1926.
All states of the northwest where
herds of pure-bred cattle are raised
were well represented and the pre-
NUNS paid were larger than ever
before.
Many people of national fame have
visited the Montana State Fair and
addressed the people of Montana in
past years and fair officials promise
this year a program fully as interest
ing as any of previous years.

one of Mercy AS the little paper
fluttered downward it was picked UP

cheer broke from a hundred threats.
Willing messengers passed it to the

with pale face and trembling hands

Her unseeing eyes gazed out on

New York - (FP) = 1t was a
black day for the honor of Amer
lean Justice when the supreme
court of Massachusetts again re-
fused a new trial for SaccO and
VanZetti. Nowhere even by i'm
plicatiOn do the judges dare say
that they believe that the evil
dence against these men were suf-
ficient for their conviction. They
reiterate that the trial Judge act
ed within his judicial discretion
when he refused to grant new
trial. Like Plate they try to
wash their hands.
The kindest thing one can say
of Judge Thayer is that he is
psychOpathically unfit for judicial
+ action in this case. He and the
3 supreme court Judges who have
upheld him may think that they
are showing courage in the face
of the mob. Actually they are
showing the cOwardice of those
who put legalism and their own
prestige above Justice.
Whatever may be the law of
Massachusetts, or of the United
States this is the time for all
lovers of Justice and ordinary de-
cency to join in so mighty a pro-
test that the judges Or as last

The sky was shining blue. The air
was still The warmth of summer
broo6ed over the land. But no birds
song broke the stiffness. No bees
fluttered over the flowers. The earth
lay torn and bare. In deep brown
burrows of earth, hundreds of rest
less men lay or knelt or stood. The
land was vibrant with living silence.
But now and then a gigantic smash
ing roar broke the tense stiffness.
Then in some spots the ground split
forth masses of dirt, a soldiers he'll
met, tattered rag of uniform, and
bits of human body.
1t was after such a blast that a
great winged object came speeding
from the north. 1t skinned low ov-
er the trenches and dipped and circled
and paused above the English line
Like great eagle it seemed about
to rush to earth, snatch it's prey, and
then be off. But as it hung suspend
ed another whirring monster flew
from the south. 1t winged its way
above its rival, then turning, plunged
downward. The great cannons grew
silent. The eyes of the pigmies in
the trenches gazed skyward. A
breathless tenseness gripped the
earth. Only sun and sky shone on
with no whisper of the mad fight of
these two winged Things. For few
wild moments they rushed at one an
other Then the bird with wings of
white rose high, turned back, and

marked with huge black crosses. 1t
missed its prey but there came a
cracking sound. A puff of smoke like
hot breath burst forth from the bird
of the iron crosses. 1t shuddered
dropped, turned and fell head down
With sweeping curves the pursuer al
so came to earth. A lean young En-
glishman sprang from the whirring
engine. His body quivered with eX-
element. He knelt by the twisted
mass. Beneath the splintered wooc
and iron, he saw boyinsh figure.
1t was still and motionless. He
gently pulled the body out. A fail
