COMMON SENSE FACTS

A merchant doesn't invest his
money for advertising merely to
see his name in print.
He is too much of a business
man to part with his dollars UNI
less there is a good prospect of
obtaining a legitimate return upon
his investment.
He doesn't advertise goods that
he can't recommend, because he
can't fool all of the people all of
the time, and that such a policy
would eventually put him out of
business.
He doesn't gouge his customers,
because he knows they would go
elsewhere and buy for less money,
and that would be the end of him.
1t is reasonable to presume,
then, that when he does advertise
an article. that article is worth
having and the price is within
reason.
When you buy from a local
merchant, that merchants repu-
tation for square dealing is be-
hind the goods you buy.
Keep these common sense facts
in mind when you go to buy and
make the advertisements your
guide, and you will make no mis-
take.

"FAIR

Front page news for a good
many people begins with the little
box in the upper corner of the pa.
per that tells them whether or not
to leave their umbrellas at home
in the morning. A prophecy of
fair" is often disappointing, for
the term may include a cloudy or
threatening sky, or even a slight
sprinkle. not enough to dampen
the front lawn, but quite enough
to spot a new spring hat. Is the
weather man wrong, or merely
misunderstood?
One difficulty is that fair as
applied to weather is a meteror-
logical term. Most dictionaries
take note of this in defining the
word. but the lay reader of the
newspaper, hoping for a beauti-
fully clear day, may expect too
much. Official observers of wealth.
er conditions are told to use the
word fair" in rendering reports.
The Weather Bureau of the Unit
ed States Department of Agricul-
ture on its forecast work considers
a day as fair" when not more
than 0.01 inch of precipitation is
expected to occur within the e
iod covered by the forecast. BY
precipitation is meant rain, or
snow reduced to its water equiva-
lent. The term has in the past
also been used, although not in
forecasts, to denote a state of the
sky between overcast and clear.
The expressions cloudy" or
partly cloudy are notifications
of a fair weather forecast, indicat-
ing that the weather is not expect
ed to be clear.
Looking over various dictionary
definitions and standards set for
Weather Bureau observers, 'fair"
is generally found to embrace a
certain degree of cloudiness and
unsettled conditions. In fore
casts it signifies absence of meas
urable precipitation.

been greatly improved and this in
formation will turn tens of thous,
ands in this direction during the
present season.
While some are inclined to min
imize the advantages of the tour
list business, it can not be denied
that every car which comes into
Montana from some other section
of the country leaves some new
money here. Should 100, 900 cars
pass through the state they would
leave not less than 81, 200, 900, a
sum of sufficient size to stimulate
business in many lines and many
sections.
This paper believes that the day
will come soon when Montana
will come to be known as the ma
tons playground with at least a
million cars entering the state
during the course of a single tour
list season and leaving a sum of
caSn equal TO or greater than the
output of or copper mines or the
product of Il wheat farms at the
present time.
The benefits OF this inflow Of
new money will be felt by almost
every citizen Of the state and the
collateral advantages of having
such an army of new people pass
through and over our state and
taking note of its great agricul-
tural, stockgrowing, mineral and
other natural resources will be be-
yond accurate computation. This

MY MOTHERS CHAIR

There's a picture that's fadeless through all tie years,
Where my treasures of memry keep,
When think of my mother that picture appears.
The old chair where she rocked me to sleep.
How sweet to remember that haven of cheer,
Though I've wandered about a heap
In my dreams go back to the old home so dear,
And the chair where she rocked me to sleep
The trials of life are a burden of woe,
And often the path seems too steep,
But always. in memry. a refuge | know
That old chair where she rocked me to sleep.
It's carvings were rude and its finish was poor,
1t could barely evade the scrapheap,
But. somehow, fancy I'm near Heavens door
In the chair where she rocked me to sleep.
And she rocked to the tune of her lullabye song
While the soft evening shadows creep
Just can't believe she has been gone so long
From the chair where she rocked me to SLEEP.
Somtimes in the hush of the eventide.
lii the mazes of memory deep,
| lust wander back with my mother to hide,
In the chair where she rocked me to sleep.
For the thrones of the kings have scarcely a care,
And their wealth and display they may keep,
But long just to cuddle in mothers old chair
The old chair where she rocked me to sleep.

PAROLE AT FAULT

Secretary New proposes the death penalty for
mail bandits suggestion that is certain to cause
siderable discussion among adherents and opponents
of the death penalty for crime.
There is denying that the death penalty is a
relic from barbarous times, and in years
the tendency has been eradicate it. where
der the crime Few have entertained the thought of
providing the death penalty for crimes other than
der.
In some cases, such as the Hickman case, even
those who normally would oppose the death penalty
give way to their outraged feelings and would gladly
carry out the sentence of capital punishment them
selves, if the law permitted it.
1t would hardly seem like advance step to
make mail robbery capital offense; than likely
it should rightly be considered a step backward.
The solution of this capital punishment argument
appears to be to make life Imprisonment" just
what it says. After the original excitement a
crime has diminished there less tendency demand
the culprit's life, and when it time to hang him,
few indeed would like the JOB. But honest men and
get sick and tired of reading where crini-
mails, some even as bad as Hickman pardoned, that
one cannot blame them for demanding the death pen
atty and increasing the number Of crimes for which it
can be imposed.
Our parole boards are too lenient If criminals
knew life imprisonment meant Just that, it would have
as much effect upon them as execution. AS long
they know their chances of getting parOed better
than that they will end their days behind the bars they
rightly construe life imprisonment only empty
threat.
