very few people were brave enough
to attempt to learn to speak in any
except in their native tongue. Per-
haps M. D. Berlitz more than any
human being who ever lived, broke
down the perplexities and barriers
that retarded the study of foreign
languages. 1t is therefore not at all
surprising that the Berlitz School of
Languages has just been given the
highest prize for superiority and
method of instruction in the awards
of the Sesquicentennial Exposition in
Philadelphia. The unqualified sue
cess of this educational endeavor has
been due to the devotional loyalty
of members of the family of the SEN
Tor Berlitz in carrying on the work
that was founded years ago. That
the senior Berlitz had clear vision
concerning his undertaking is evil
denced by the world growth of the
institution bearing his name. When
the acid test is applied to the Berlitz
method the verdict is always pure
gold" In the winning of prizes the
school always "brings home the ba.

award the school has carried off the

tive exhibitions in all the principal
countries of the world.

KENTUCKY LYNCHINC LAW

The Kentuck lynching law, enacted
in 1920, has, perhaps, the best statu-
tory definition of lynching. Here it
is: "Any number of persons more
than three, assembled for the purpose
of doing violence, injury to, or lynch
ing any person in the custody OF any
peace officer or pailor in this COM
monwealth, shall be regarded as a
mob. Any person that takes part in
and with such mob, with the result
that the person in custody meets
death at the hands of any such mob,
shall be deemed guilty of lynchlng. "
And while we have this Kentucky law
in our hands we might also quote
from it potent penalty: IF any
person being prisoner, or lawfully
in custody shall be taken from the
hands of any sheriff, deputy sheriff,
constable, or any other peace officer,
or from the hands or custody of any
TAILOR, and shall be lynched, killed,
MANNED or injured, it shall be prima
facie evidence of failure of the Off
Ger to perform his duty; and shall be
prima facie evidence of neglect of
duty on the part of such officer, and
when such failure in, or neglect of
duty, or such lynching or injury, is
made to appear to the Governor, he
shall at once publish proclamation
declaring the office or offices of the
officer or officers vacant.

Skirts To Go Two
Inches Above Knee

Atlanta, Ga.-Skirts will be two
inches above the knee So announces
the fashion experts in the Peachtree
Arcade, Atlanta's little city of more
than hundred shops which cater to
the feminine fancy and foibles. The
experts have begun to eXpatiate on
the spring styles, or in other words
how milady will wear her skirt some
months hence.
About a year ago, these experts
point out, Paris decreed skirts for
women would be two inches below the
knee, in order to keep up with the
style. 1t was interesting to note that
many appeared on the streets of At
lanta during the early spring two
inches above rather than below the
knee.
But experts here do not believe
that those who like the extremes will
go to as great lengths this year to
keep ahead.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES
Pineapple and a Champion

Ever since Gertrude Ederle asked
for stimulating pineapple slices and
juice on her swim across the English
channel, more emphasis has been
placed on the food value and medici-
nal qualities of pineapple. Expert
ments, carried out largely on Guinea
pigs, have brought to light some in
teresting facts. Being juicy fruit
there is great deal of moisture in
this pineapple. Moisture contains
sugar, protein, crude fibre, mineral
matter and fruit acid besides high
percentage of vitamins. Rich in
bromelin, it also is powerful aid
to digestion.
This applies enormously to canned
pineapple which is picked at exactly
the right stage of maturity. Pineap-
pie to be eaten in it's fresh raw state
has to be picked green for shipping
and, because pineapple draws large
amount of its sustenance from the
air when it is thus picked, it does
not contain its natural amount of
fruit sugar when left to ripen in the
hold of ship.
Miss Ederle drank the pineapple
juice while in the water. She also
ate some of the fruit, partly as food
and partly to relieve her mouth of
the rawness caused by long contact
with salt water.
Utilizing Left-Overs
Place any amount of left over
grated or crushed Hawaiian pineap
pie in a small dish and keep it in the
ice box to use as a piquant touch to
desserts or salads to be made the fol-
lowing day. For filling the center
of apples to be baked after the core
has been removed, nothing is more
delicious than pineapple.
The left over pineapple also makes
a delicious sauce for pudding or ice
cream if heated with little add
tional sugar and thickened with the
required amount of flour or corn
starch.

COLDS
baltimore SUM

This is the beginning of the
open season for colds, and they
will be the chief topic of CONVEX
sation until the flowers bloom in
the spring. The world is divided
into two classes of people-those
who believe that nothing a be
done about colds, and those who
believe that everything should be
done about colds.
People who believe that moth
ing can be done about colds ac-
cept them with an air of resigna-
ton. They assume that a cold
will get well after running it's full
course and if in extreme cases
it gets worse and turns into bron-
chitis it will be an eXcuse for
staying in bed; if into pneumonia,
that its treatment may also in
clude the attendance of a pretty
trained nurse.
Colds, they find, are useful in
getting them out of things they do
not want to do. Then there are
generally a few unpleasant peo-
pie in their Office to whom they
may give their colds. If the colds
irritate, they have the consolation
that a bad cold is usually followed
by a period of immunity, so that
by allowing each cold to run
long enough they can get through
a winter on not than three.
People who believe that colds
can be cured are consumed by an
eyangelistic fire. They insist up
on announcing their cures to the
world. They are never happy un-
less they are shifting or gargling
or taking pills or being injected
with serums and making every
body else sniff and gargle and
take pills and inject themselves
with serum. Their battle cry is
that a cold should be arrested in
time, and SO they start in August
preparing for colds they may have
in January.
There is nothing so distressing
as a person who does not believe
in remedies attempting to defend
his position against those who
do. Unless, perhaps, it is the
person who believes in remedies
trying to explain how he happen
ed to catch and keep a cold in
spite of all precautions.

competitive samples entered from
all parts of the continent to de-
termine who will be crowned the
crop Kings of 1927. More than
200 highly-ftted carloads of choice
market live stock in the nearby
stock yards will be carefully gone
over by the discriminating judges,
preliminary to selecting the win
ners in the greatest display of its
kind to be found anywhere in the
world.
Later in the day the champion
baby beefs of the strongest CLUB
shows of the country, fifty percent
more in numbers than last year.
will be led into the arena by their
Youthful owners to strive for ma
tional honors. Across the street
in the club building the outstand-
ing handiwork of champion girl
club members will also be p1tted
for the highest recognition OF the
year.
At night a brilliant horse SHOW
and entertainment will occupy the
great amphitheatre, featuring IN
addition to the light horse classes
parades. exciting polo contests
six-horse teams in driving exhlbl-
tions. sheep dog demonstrations
and other stirring attractions. En-
tries from the leading stables OF
saddle. driving, jumper and hunt
ing horses in all parts OF the coun-
try will compete for the favor OF
the Judges and the applause OIL
the thousands of spectators.
Each day a new program OF varl-
ed activities will be offered the
throngs of visitors within the gates
of this world-famous exposition.
Educational, entertaining and in
spirational, the International Oh

tory as a record-making event in
the agricultural world.

cRlTlclzEs WHERE PRAISE is
DUE
Courier)

(GlaSqoW CouTieTJ
The Secretary of the Glendive
Chamber of Commerce, who is al
50 the editor of the monthly news
bulletin issued by that body, lets
out a howl about "our highways
in his issue of October LIST.
II seems to complain that the
Montana Highway Commission
does not inform the people OF the
state fully as to its decisions and
actions. Failure to do So says
the news bulletin, "has in the past
resulted in widespread misunder-
standings"
We confess we do not grasp the
editors meaning. We have never
heard of the Highway Commission
holding a secret or star chamber
session. At each and everyone OF
its meetings the newspapers nave
had full representation and nave
printed and published to the world
complete accounts of their pro-
ceedings. The Commission a
even given out, on numerous oc-
casions, information as to what us
next move or series of moves will
he and the matters that are to
come I'D in future meeting. we
think the people of the state have
been fully advised, many times IN
advance, of the business OF the
Commission.
The bulletin editor also com
plains because there is no member
of the highway commission closer
to Billings. which is 226 miles dis
tant. That's no very great dis
lance in Montana. Glasgow is
276 miles removed from the near
est member of the Commission
and we have never been able to see
where we have suffered by that
fact. In fact Glendive has been
exceptionally well treated and has
nothing whatever to hold a crouch
about. We cannot have a mem
her of the Commission in every
county in the state.
It is the opinion of The Courier
that Montana has nov n OF the
best and most level-headed high
way commissions of any OF the
states. The present commission
is composed of men who are broad
minded enough to consider every
norton of the state, even includ-
ing Dawson county, which has been
particularly favored, and these
men of the Commission are work
ing conscientiously to give each
and every section of the state a
snuare deal They are men of the
highest character and u state is
