SOCIETY
Informal Reception For
Miss Erma Small Monday

Receptions aren't always held al
home in ones drawing room, at
least that is what Miss Erma Small
discovered Monday evening when
she left for Portland, Oregon.
Miss Small will be married in
Portland on March 80 to Stanley
Kubik. a prominent young chiro-
practor of that city. She had
planned to leave Wolf Point the
latter part of this week, but an
urgent message from Portland
caused her to change her plans
and leave Monday evening instead.
More than so of her friends
gathered at the depot to bid her
goodbye and wish her happiness.
The whole affair was very much
of a surprise to Miss Small who
had expected only members of her
family and perhaps two Or three
of her most intimate friends to be
there. To add to the surprise and
pleasure of the occasion, a friend
of many years, Miss Alta Mcneil,
was on the same train coming to
Wolf Point. Several who knew
she would be on the train went on
board to tell her Miss Small would
also be travelling on the train.
Miss Mcneil Immediately left her
coach to greet Miss Small. By
way of explanation it might be
added that Miss Mcneil, who has
been following the nursing pro-
fession in a Midwest. Wyoming.
hospital, accompanied by her par
ents Mr.. and Mrs. A. ID. Mcneil of
Fairview and her fiance Harold
Frank of Inglewood, Calf. was on
her way to Glasgow where her mar
riage to Mr.. Frank was solemn
lied Wednesday.
AS a parting shot, so to speak,
Of good will and friendship Miss
Small was generously showered
rice by her friends as the
train pulled out from the depot.
She made the trip straight
through to Portland, with no visits
enroute as she had previously
planned. Miss Small arrived there
Z o'clock Wednesday morning
md will be the guest of her cousins,
Mr.. and Mrs. r. d. Jennings until
ler marriage.

East and West
Anna Muller, a member of the
class of '27 talked to the assembly
on the subject, IAN Eye for an
Eye. She compared Eastern
methods of punishment with those
of the w Western world. She
said, THE fastener looks with
horror at American justice be-
cause of its certainty and definite
sentence of 3, 5 or 10 years. He
prefers to be thrown into a dun
geon. pending his sovereign's plea
sure. Eastern justice is based on
the principle of AN eye for an
eye and "a tooth for a tooth. The
robber loses a limb, the murderer
his head. the unfaithful is
stoned to death or buried alive.
In Turkestan and some parts of
Persia brigands are baked in clay
and left to cool in mud pillars as
a warning to other highwaymen.
The great difference between
Western and Eastern justice is that
the West is or pretends to be inn
personal. The East is strictly per-
sonal."
