Thief Delays Work
On Williston Church
(WiIliston HeraId)

Bricklaying on the Methodist
church was delayed for an entire
week because someone entered
the parsonage garage one night
and stole 100-pound sack of NOR
tar color, making it necessary to
send to Minneapolis for a new
supply, none being available at
any nearer point.
The thief probably thought he
was getting a sack of high-grade
cement, but if he has discovered
his mistake, he has not yet seen
fit to return his loot.
If that isn't qualifying for the
"meanest man" record, it is COM
ing pretty close to it, believes the
pastor, who has been putting
forth every ounce of energy to
complete the church at the earl
lest possible time.

Mr. Garfield says that there are
only three licensed women pilots

sired distinction.

WILD EXPERIENCE
With LOAD OF POWDER
Medicine Lake Wave

Early last Tuesday evening M.
d. Eckley and A. F. Johnson mir
aculously escaped death or fatal
injury when ten kegs of blasting
powder which they were hauling
in the tonneau of car exploded.
Mr.. Johnson operates the Wig
more coal mine west of town and
had purchased ten kegs of powder
from the Sparling Hardware, Mr.
Eckley had gone with Mr.. Johnson
to the powder house located north
OF town about mile to deliver
the powder. The powder was
loaded into the tonneau of the open
touring car and when about half
way back to town a keg exploded.
Both men leaped or were blown
from the car, their hair and cloth
ing on fire. Mike quickly extin-
guished the fire on himself and
rushed to the assistance of John
son who was a burning torch
Mike fought furiously and tore the
burning clothing from Johnson ex-
tinguishing the fire and assisted
him to town, they were picked up
Roman Borley not far from the
scene of the explosion and rushed
to DR.. Cloud who dressed their
burns and rushed them to the hos
pital at Plentywood.
Mr.. Eckley is burned severely
about the head and neck and his
hands and arms were terribly
burned while tearing the clothing
from Johnson. Mr.. Johnson is
burned about the face, head and |
upper part of the body and while |
both men are suffering much pain
the burns will not prove fatal and |
they are getting along nicely at
this writing.
Mr.. Johnson had purchased a
new storage battery for the car
and put the old battery in the ton
eau, the powder was loaded in
with the battery and the only feas-
lble explanation for the explosion
is that the steel powder cans came
in contact with the live posts of
The battery causing a circuit which
heated the can and caused the
first explosion, as it was one of
he underneath cans that expIod-
I'd first.
The remaining cans exploded at
intervals, Illuminating the entire
and went off with great
booms' which brought people
rom all directions to witness the
fireworks.
The loss is indeed a severe one
or Mr.. Johnson, needless to say
he car is a total loss and he had
ust loaded up big supply of
and supplies which were
Llso consumed In his coverall
pocket was considerable amount

themselves, the day will be marked
by special exercises in the schools
and out of doors, but the principal
reason for celebrating Child Health
Day is to focus the attention OF the
grown-ups on the younger citizens OF
the State and on certain rights they
have to health and to good care, not
only. for one day, but for every day
in the year. And in Maryland that
means good young children and

Day was first proposed, five years
ago, by the American Child Health
Association, Mr.. Herbert Hoover,

the children of this country. Here
it is:
The ideal to which we should
strive is that there shall be no child
in America
That has not been born under
proper conditions, that does not live
in hygienic surroundings, that ever
suffers from ndernourishment, that
does not have prompt and efficient
medical attention and inspection,
that does not receive primary in
struction in the elements Of hygiene,
and good health, that has not the
complete birthright of sound mind
in sound body, that has not the en-
couragement to express in fullest
measure the spirit within which is
the final endowment of every human
being.
"If we substitute in Maryland
for in America we are stating the
platform of everyone who is interest
ed in or who is working for the
health of the children here in our
