Heirloom Restored
To Owner Thru Adv.

Last week, Paul S~chillinger, Sr..
stopped at The Herald office and
inserted a classified ad describing
a gold watch which he had lost
on the street. A few days later
the watch was brought to The
Herald Office by Supt. Livingston.
1t had been turned in to his office
by one of the school pupils who
had found it on or near the school
ground. Mr.. Schillinger was very
glad to recover the watch, as it
was a heirloom which he greatly
prizes. He asked that an express
sion of his thanks be made in The
Herald, which we are glad to do.
Mr.. Schillinger said: 81 wish to
express my appreciation of the
honesty of the Wolf Point school
boy or girl who found and return
ed my watch. and also to express
my thanks to Supt. Livingston for
his help in getting it back to me-"

GRAZING PROVISION
FOR GAME ANIMALS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-An APP
preparation of $15O,OOO for use in
extending the feeding ground of
the northern herd of elk, antelope
and other game animals in the
Yellowstone national park region
is asked in a bill introduced this
week by Congressman Scott Leav-
lit.
The extension of the feeding
ground is in areas added t the
Galiatin and Absaroka national
forests by act of the last congress
and does not involve conflicts
with any domestic grazing rights.
The bill provides that expendi-
lures from the proposed appropri-
alton shall not exceed the COM
bined total of sums contributed
and the appraised value of land
donated by private agencies. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Leavitt, such con-
tributions of considerable size
from individuals and organizations
in various parts of the country
have already been made and that
others will be forthcoming.
The Montana sportsmen's asso-
citation has acted in cooperation
with the Montana state game
commission and national game
conservation societies and govern
ment agencies in f%urthering this
project, according to MIR. Leayitt.

MAIL YOUR CHRISTMAS
PARCELSEARL RULE

With the approach of Christmas
comes the request to mail Christ
mas parcels early in order to in
sure their delivery at destination
before Christmas. Early shopping
and early mailing enables postal
employees all along the line to
handle the heavy bulk of Christ
mas mail with greater ease than
is possible when everything is
left to the last.
Parcels and letters for distant
points should be mailed before
December IA, it is said. Mail for
points within three days travel
should be mailed before December
16; for points within two days
travel, December IS, and for
points within one days travel be-
fore December 20. A special de-
livery stamp will insure delivery
on Sunday, Christmas day. A
special handling stamp costing 25
cents may be affixed to parcels
and will insure the same handling
as is given first class mail.

SMALL POX SPREADING
IS CASES in VICINITY

DR.. C. B. Larson, city health
officer, reports that there are Is
cases of smallpox in Wolf Point
and vicinity. That the disease
continues to spread indicates
gross c~arelessness or criminal
negligence on the part of some
person or persons.
People are sometimes so selfish
and so inconsiderate of the health
rights of other people that they
will conceal the fact that there is
a contagious disease in the family
running the risk of exposing
others, rather than submit to the
inconvenience of a few weeks
quarantine.
AT a time when contagious dis
eases are epidemic, it is better
to be overcautious than foolhardy.
If you feel as if you were Coming
down with something" see your
physician. In that way the dis
ease can be checked at the start
and controlled. If you have not
been vaccinated recently, be vac
cinated. You may have a sore
arm for a few days, but it won't
last as long as a siege of small
poX, nor be as expensive.
If you or a member of your
family develops smallpox, call
your physician and have the rest
of the family va~ccinated.
Reporting a Duty
If you suspect that v 0 is
trying to conceal a case of small
pox, or that anyone who has a
mild case of the disease is going
about and mingling with other
people, it is your duty to advise
the health officer at once People
r sometimes reluctant to take
action in such a matter, feeling
that it is not their business to
tell on their neighbors, or fearing
to incur the ill-will of those who
are concealing the disease. The
public health is everybody's bust
ness, and it is only through intel
ligent cooperation of the public,
that a contagious disease can be
stamped out, one it has gained a
foothold in a community.

Mourned 16 Years,
Woman Turns Up

Coalville, Leicestershire, Eng
Mourned for nearly 16 years as
the victim of the Titanic disaster,
Mrs. Robertson walked into her
old home at this place recently
and nearly frightened her aged
mother to death.
When she left Coalville she was
Miss Wilkinson and she had book
ed passage on the Titanic, but at
the last minute changed her plan.
About her mysterious doings in
the long interval, during which
her father and four brothers and
sisters died, she would say little.
She explained that she had mar
ried and done war work in Ger
many and had been captured by
the Germans.

The changing of the channel is
considered highly important by
engineers, either with or without
reference to the bridge. The city
of Wolf Point will make formal
application to the proper engin-
GERS of the war department for
permission to change the course,
and an effort will be made to Sc
cure legislation to carry it
through.
Ready To Go BY Spring
w. L.. Young, who has been the
main spring of the movement for
a bridge, is confident that the
project can be pushed to the point
where bids will be called for some
time during next spring. and that
the bridge will be in use within
Is or Is months. The exact To-
cation of it is not considered as
of such great Importance since it
is not a local enterprise, but is
something that concerns the eco
nomical welfare of a vast terri
tory and a great number of peo-
pie. If a better and cheaper site
can be found a few miles east of
here, it is local opinion that that
is where the bridge should and
will be built. The surveys and
soundings by the engineers will be
the determining factor in locating
the bridge.
