Hereafter, when a Montana motor

he has been in the habit of decorating
his car. Otherwise he will run slam

Provision for extension of the feed
ing ground of the northern herd OF
elk, antelope and other game animals
In the Yellowstone national park re-
gion is contained in one of Congress-
man Scott Leavitt's bills, which has
passed the house and gone to the SEN
ate for consideration. An appropria-
ton of $150,000 for this purpose
would be authorized by the bill.
The extension of the feeding ground
Is in areas added to the Gallatin and
Absaroka national forests by act of
the last congress, and does not in
volve conflicts with any domestic
grazing rights. The bill provides
that expenditures from the proposed
appropriation shall not exceed the
combined total of sums contributed
and the appraised value of the land
donated by private agencies. Accord
ing to Mr.. Leavitt, such contributions
of considerable size from individuals
and organizations in various parts of
The country have already been made

LOCAL PLAY WINS

produce an altogether enjoyable play

Their production was about as
shipshape as though they had been
in the play producing business. It
will, no doubt, find a market with
stock companies. They showed rare
good judgment in choosing the play
ers, as local talent plays can be quick
failures through the inability of the
performers to put the story across.
Miss Pollard's role as Minnie" the
hired girl, who is in reality novel
ist working to gather material for
book, was done to a turn. Miss Sui
livan played her part as the snobbish
Fay VOORHEES, SO real that a person
was almost tempted to tell her to go
back to Pittsburgh. Sharon G. Mer-
riman's dual role of prospector and
responsible engineer Of large east
ern concern was pleasing. The way
he rolled out high sounding words
caused one to chuckle. Ore Horsfal,
as the dude and brother of Minnie
is to be commended upon his per-
Torrance also. Myrtle Fisher handed
out some good laughs as the rich Mrs
Bellingham, to whom horse back rid
ing was an experience which did not
agree with her. Clair Chamberlain
took the part of Owens the ranch
owner; Mr.. Jenkins, John Romersa
and Claude Hardy inpersonated cow
boys, and Helen McCabe played as
the sister Of the snobbish Fay and
they all came through with flying
colors.
All in all, the play and players
combined to make an evening well
spent.
