tremely unwise to treat oneself by
taking this or that proprietary medi-
cine. Your diagnosis may be wrong
probably is when we consider how Of
ten doctors err who are trained in
symptomatology. To tamper with
Quinidine and Digitil to no good pur-
pose is frequently to allow your dis
ease to progress to a point where
nothing can save you.
What You Should Do
There is only one correct way to
proceed in case of illness-call a
physician. And when you call doc
tor don't call certain one because
he is Catholic or Protestant, be-
cause he is Jew or Gentle, because
he is a Mason or a X. c., because he
is Conservative or Liberal. But
call him because he is a doctor who
knows his business-can diagnose
your disease and prescribe for what
you specifically and individually re-
quire-not a hand-me-do prepara-
ton which is claimed to fit like paper
on the wall but fits your case like

Uncle Henry's hat fit the scare-crow

LIVESTOCK TRAIN
COMPLETES STATE
RUN AT GLENDIVE

The livestock special train operat-
ed by the Northern Pacific railroad
and the Montana Extension Service
closed its seventeen-day run through
western, southern and eastern Mon
tana at Glendive last week. More
than 10000 people visited the train
at its 20 stops. 1t is considered one
of the most successful efforts of it's
kind ever made in the United States.
At every stop farmers, stockmen and
business men visiting the train dis
played the greatest interest in the
exhibits and demonstrations.
The thorough, practical nature of
the displays and the concisness of
the discussions of the extension spec
ialists were impressive. The entire
effort was directed toward the es-
sential points Of efficient livestock
production and that producers may
realize the greatest possible returns
from feed, range and pasture.

DIR. CLEMY SPEAKS
TO STUDENT GROUP

In an assembly held in the first
period last Monday morning DR.. E.
J. Clemy, president of the Inter
mountain college at Helena, Mon
tana, gave very interesting talk on
the value of cultivating the mind. He
said that the person of fine appear
ance and large stature does not come
out ahead of the person who has cul-
tivated his mind though he is small.
The mind is the standard of the man
was the way he put it. He also gave
biography sketch of a few great
men who had become famous by cul-
tivating the mind. Among those men,
toned were Luther Burbank, the plant
wizard, and DR.. Holmes, the poet.

JUNIORS ENTERTAIN
WITH ANNUAL PARTY
Costume Dance In Setting
of Autumn Atmosphere
Is First Party of Year

Balloons and orange and black
paper gaily festooned the high school
gym, Friday evening, October %,
when the Juniors entertained the 9TH
er classes at a character chop"
Wheat and corn shocks, from which
peeped yellow pumpkins, and large
harvest moon beaming at one end of
the hall, helped to carry out the au-
tumnal scheme of decoration.
An unusual large attendance, mark
ed the first party of tn eseason, most
of whom were in costume.
The prizes for the best costume
were awarded to Rudolph Warila and
Katherine Egan. Following the award
ing of the prizes, there was a short
program, "Me and My Shadow" and
comic song, "Whistle, Mary
Whistle" by the Junior quartette;
Helen Logan and Olga Karhu, dress
ed in devil costume, recited some
comic jingles with peculiarly pointed
meanings for members of the school.
The Junior class introduced a school
yell which started the boys and girls
having good time.
Balloons of all descriptions were
given out as favors. The numerous
circles, rye waltz, together with
the serpentine dance, gave a pleasant
variety to the evenings entertain
ment.

OUR EXCHANGES

Someone asked what was an ex-
change. 1t is just what is says-ex-
change. We send our paper to other
schools, and they in return send theirs
to us. We now have nine schools on
our list.
The Montana Kaimin from Boze-
man is especially interesting since
many of our alumni are attending col
lege there. The other papers are "The
Tiger" from Manhattan; "The
Kyote," from Billings; "The Poly
graph" from the Polytechnic; eli
Lights" from Hysham, "Ocksheper-
ida" from Sheridan, Wyoming and
"The Gallatin," from Gallatin high
school.
In each case the school paper is an
independent enterprise. Perhaps when
ours has grown out of its infancy, it,
too, will be independent. For the
present we are grateful to our local
papers for the space they allow us.

SHOT-ONE DEER

a sensation at the party, he went out
Saturday and slew poor unsuspect-

PROPRIETARY MEDICINES

The American Medical association
has done the public an incalculable
service in exposing the patent medi-
cine and nostrum evil. Today very
few people think of taking a patent
medicine and few drug stores carry
them.
Proprietary Medicines
However, there are insidiously
creeping onto the shelves formerly oc-
cupied by patent medicines what are
called Proprietary Preparations.
There are today thousands of these
bearing fancy trade names, being
manufactured by pharmaceutical
houses. Some of these are worthy,
some are not. In many cases claims
couched in language just as extrava-
giant as ever adorned patent medi-
cine "ad"-and just as untrustworthy
are made for these "proprietaries. ;"
A certain number Of them are STAN
dard preparations compounded in
form more attractive to the eye and
more pleasing to the palate than the
average druggist can make up. But
the vast majority do not suit all the
people who take them any more than
one coat will fit all the soldiers in
regiment.
Why Proprietary Medicines Fail

TEAM TO PORTLAND
FOR STOCK JUDGING
As Winners of Second Place
In State Boys entitled to
Compete Coast Contest

In the spring of this year the Car
bon county stock judging team, COM
posed of Eugene Egan, Howard Nc
MINI and Henry Robinson, all of
whom are Seniors, with F. |. Peter
son for a coach, won second place in
the state Judging contest held at
Bozeman.
This entitled the boys and Mr..
Peterson to go to the Pacific Live
Stock Show held at Portland the lat
ter part of last month. Here they
competed with the other 100 contes-
tants from 60 different schools.
At Portland the boys judged two
classes of cows, hogs, sheep and
horses. They judged Saturday, Octo-
Der %, but waited until the first part
of this week 10 give their reasons.
All fall Mr.. Peterson has been tax
ing the boys out to different farms
and having them judge stock, especial
ly sows which seem to be the hardest
to Judge.
Wednesday, Principal G. R. Schmidt
called an assembly for the team.
Each member gave a short talk of
his expectations on this trip.
After the talk the school gave some
yells and then went to the train to
see the boys and Mr.. Peterson off.
At the train the school gave more
yells and hearty send off. The team
is expected to return Friday.
Monday Mr.. Schmidt posted card
received from the judging team,
which stated that they arrived safe
in Portland and were having good
time.

WASHINGTON reviewers general,

WASHlNGTON reviewers generally
have lavished, from time to time,
superlatives on the settings used by
the National Players, but it is not
generally known that every set is
made to order in the National Theater
studio and is q replica of one used in
the original production. The super
vision of these is under Charles
Squires. scenic designer.
The public also often confuses sets
with properties. They are widely sep
arated and under different depart.
ments. To the public, the property
man is just somebody who is on the
theater pay roll. To the director and
management Of the company, he is
most important individual. 1t Is his
function to dress the set and pro-
cure the great mass of impedimenta
needed for every production.
George Donaldson is the property
man at the National. His ingenuity
seems boundless. There are times
when the script demands properties
that only motion picture studio could
produce. Yet Mr.. Donaldson, some.
how. finds these things within the
confines of Washington. Occasionally
call is sent to New York. Aiding
Mr. Donaldson in the matter of pro-
curing properties lis Dorothy Tierney,
art director and ingenue of the troupe.
For instance, in Pollyanna" the
script called for a puppy dog in the
first act and the same dog, full-grown,
in the last act. The Washington dog
pound supplied the pup. 1t was Mr..
Donaldson's duty then to scour the
town and find an older dog with ex-
actly the same markings-black and
white. After two days of motoring
to animal stores and to residential
districts, he found the older twin at
a house in the southeast. The mark
ings were so identical as to be un-
canny.
In Easy Come, Easy Co." the first
act called for the interior of a Pull
man car. No amount of search could
reveal anything like one. Finally the
Pullman offices here negotiated for
construction of a full set at their
shops in Wilmington, Del. Thus, for
an act lasting a bare five minutes Ia
scene, really) the National manage
ment and it's industrious property
man had built to order set that
could be installed in any Pullman
smoker and do indefinite duty.
Last week, for peg o. My Heart"
exceptional care was taken to match
the original set made for Laurette
Taylor's performance of the play. The
strong outburst of applause each
evening when it was first disclosed
seems ample indication that the great
audiences which are honoring the
work of the National Players this year
exclude nothing whatever from their
scrutiny, and when something is ex-
ceptionally well done, that they mani
fest appreciation in no unmistakable
way.
All of which is a manifestation not
only Of the competency of the manage
ment Of the National Players and the
extraordinary pains taken to make
the local stock company outstanding
in its quality throughout the country,
but also of the quick response that
playgoers are giving the company in

Literati and the Movie

HOLLYWOOD, Calf. R.-Poets
who dare to set down their thoughts
in the language Of everyday life usu.
ally are unpopular with the llterati.
and that is why motion picture pro.
ducers are unpopular with some of
the literati now. Such is the belief of
Sam Spring. secretary-treasurer Of
First National Pictures.
Every great poet who has turned
his back on the language of scholars
to express himself in the vernacular
has been scorned by the literati of his
day." said Spring. 'Chaucer might
have written his poems in Latin,
which was then the accepted language
Of scholars. He chose instead the ver-
nacular, and his use Of it helped to
make modern English. Dante and Pc
trarch, facing a similar situation in
Italy, also chose the vernacular.
THE various languages which were
scorned by scholars then have since
become the accepted medium of
scholarly expression.
But pictures have become the Ian
guage of the people. Naturally those
who attempt to achieve artistic ex-
preston in this modern vernacular
are assailed by the literati."
