Many people regard superstitions
as something TO be avoided, except
for the pet ones Of their own.
There are very few people who have
not some little superstitions, perhaps
Self-invented, which occupy some
corner of their mind. whether or not
they have acknowledged them as
such. OF more importance than the
superstition itself is the thing that
gave rise to it. If it is a sensible

FINE PUBLIC SPIRIT

The Ancient Order of United
Workmen. one of the largest and
best fraternal organizations in the
country. is fittingly represented in
Wolf Point by local lodge with
large membership and efficient
officers. At a recent meeting the
Workmen manifested their gener-
ousity and public spirit in prac-
tical manner by voting to offer
their cooperation to the CONNER
cial club in the way of financing a
public dance to raise funds for use
on the tourist park.
Announcement Next Week
The offer will be gladly accepted
by the directors and the tourist
park committee. The dance will be
held at the Coliseum, probably
February 25 or 26. There has not
been time for the committee to
make arrangements but a definite
and advertising will
appear next week With the cost
met by the Workmen and liberal
patronage by the people of the
town, q splendid fund should be
realized for use in opening the park
next spring.
This excellent cooperative idea
was initiated by Master Workman
Leo l.. Bogut and Recorder James

HEROIC EFFORT TO
SAVE FELLOW WORKER

Although not successful in his
efforts. Frank Sugden, Oldest son
of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Sugden,
residents just north of town. per-
formed a heroic act in attempting
to save the life of a fellow work
man. Sugden is employed with a
bridge gang in Spokane, Washing
ton. A Spokane paper gives the
following account of the incident.
with a rope thrown by fellow
workmen just beyond his grasp,
Syver Strand, "a, bridge worker,
was drowned in the Spokane river
here today after he had fallen in
to the icy water from railroad
bridge upon which he was work
ing. After Strand had sunk from
sight. Frank Sugden, with a rope
about his waist, dived into the
stream in an effort TO rescue him
and himself was drawn out ex-
hausted after several attempts.
Strands body was recovered an
hour later"
It is thought Strand may have
friends in this community but none
could be located.

CITY And RURAL
SCHOOL NOTES
THE BOZEMAN NFERENCE-
AWARDS-A S S EN- B LY
TALKS-PROGRAMS

The three boys, William Hide,
Wayde Littlefeld and Werner
Schreiber. who attended the voca-
tional conference in Bozeman
gave talks on their trip during
the week These talks were char
aeterized as the best which have
ever been given by boys return
ing from the conference.
The first stop OF the trip was
made in Great Falls but was so
short they did not have much
time to see the city. In Helena
they stopped for several hours
and improved their time by visit
ing the state capitol and seeing
many things Of interest there.
The Bozeman visit was packed
full of lectures, tours. conferences
and concerts. Judging from the
enthusiasm in the assembly talks
the music furnished was of very
fine quality.
Some of the talks We're of an
inspirational character, dealing
with character building, the sub
stantial background necessary for
any career, and ways and means
of dealing with ones fellow beings
in successful manner. Men of
high caliber in educational and
state affairs gave these talks and
il is safe to say that the good
accomplished by them alone was
worth the trip to the local boys.
Another feature which had high
value was the talks on the vari-
Gus professions which character
lied the qualifications for each,
told the high school subjects ne
cessary in preparation. and gave
some idea as TO the sort of per-
and individual qualities
suited to each. These talks We're
given by men who were success
full in the line on which they spoke
and the talks were backed by
years of successful experience and
years Of dealing with the world
from the background of that profess

with this question, it passed the

You will read at length of the
hard shedding it had there.
