house wrens should be only the size

eighths of an inch In diameter, says a

the theory that the wren needs pro-

about the matter, for of several bird

MACINTOSH FOR UNITED
STATES SENATOR

Kenneth Macintosh, Republi-
can candidate for United States
Senator, has swung into the last
week of the primary campaign
confident of his nomination OIL
September IL. Reports of belated
registration indicate that the num-
Der of voters qualified to partici-
pate i'll next week s primaries
probably will be larger than usual.
The people, as predicted, shook off
their apathy during closing weeks
of registration and the Mackin-
tosh organization, which made ID
more thorough canvass of the
state than any other group, re-
CARDS this as most significant
sign. Favorable reports on the
progress of the Macintosh cam
.paign are made by county leaders.
Friends of Mr.. Macintosh be-
lieve both his private and public
records are well understood by the
voters as not only has he spent his
entiie life in this state, having
been born here October %, 1875,
but during the past six months his
actions have been reviewed as
critically as possible by opponents
without any serious criticism hav-
ing been offered. For man to be
born in a community and rise to
the position of chief justice of SUI
preme court, then resign and en-
ter the race for United States Sen
ator, without having aroused SER
ious antagonism by any of his
life activities is figured as re-
markable evidence of satisfactory
public service and commendable
private life.

Gi0.Dirg Portrayal of
School of the Future

The little red schoolhouse is poetic
In songbooks and sentimental orations,
bun 1t exacts an appalling toll in the
health OF children condemned to spend
much of their youth within its lnsan-
itary walls, a writer In the Chicago
Daily News asserts. The schools OF the
future will be built primarily to serve
the health needs of the growing child
and the reward will be generation
OF sturdy citizens with color In their
cheeks and n spring In their steps.
Such is the picture painted by Or.
Max Seham. professor of pediatrics
at the University of Minnesota and a
leading authority on fatigue in chill
dren. Doctor Seham. in Chicago in
connection with recent baby week &C
tiyities, holds that while America has
been piling up riches beyond those
Of any nation In history, its children
have been drifting toward physical
bankruptcy
zone million children have be
ginning tuberculosis. Four hundred
thousand have leakage of the heart.
One million suffer from spinal curvs-
ture and other deformities. Two mil
lion have defective hearing, and five
million reveal malnutriton," Doctor
Seham cited these figures us warrant
for vigorous effort on the part of
the state to reorganize its educational
program SO as to build up the health
of future citizens.
Sixty per cent Of the 25.0OO,0OO
school children of America attend
rural schools. Hardly rural COM
munlty is without one or more In
sanitary, indecent, unfit schools Chill
dren are compelled to pass their days
In buildings In which no employer
would think of asking workmen to
toll"
The schools of the future, rural as
well as urban, will have fresh-sir
rooms, lighting will be from the sun,
seats and desks will be adjustable.
lunches will be served at least one
wholesome, rational meal day. phys
zeal education under the leadership of
experts will be compulsory and uni
versal, Doctor Seham believes.
1.-THE weak and defective child,
through corrective exercise in small
special classes, will get It's full oppor-
tunity for normal development. There
will be clinics for the diagnosis of
mental MS well as physical ailments,
with full-time physicians and nurses
watching the health of the children.
1.-THE teachers will be prepared to
instruct in practical hygiene IS well
as In academic subjects. All of this
will be linked up with the home-the
school being considered the day home

GEO. PERCY PRODUCES
BEARDLESS WHEAT

Beardless winter wheat, a crop
desired by many farmers, is avail
able locally to Roosevelt county
farmers for the first time through
the production work of George
Piercy of Bainville. Two years
ago, Mr.. Piercy secured so pounds
of Newturk, a beardless variety
developed by the Moccassin exper-
iment station and a since car
ried this as Approved seed. This
is the first year he has had
enough for general distribution.
Newturk is a Montana produced
variety and has met with quite
general approval because of it's
b~eardless character. It has given
yields equaling Karmont, Mon
tana Sc, and other standard var
ieties and equals these varieties
in quality. Mr.. Piercy's exper-
fence with Newturk shows that it
is equally hardy and will stand
cold weather as well as the beard
varieties.

commanded all jews to depart from Rome), and came unto them.
And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them. and
wrought (r by their occupation they were tentmakers).
And he reasoned in the synagog every sabbath, and persuaded
the Jews and Greeks.
And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul
was pressed in the spirit, and testified TO the Jews that Jesus was
Christ.
And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his
raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads;
I am clean: from henceforth 1 will go unto the Gentiles.
And he departed thence, and entered into a certain mans house,
named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house Joined hard to
the synagog.
And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagog, believed 0 the Lord
with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed,
and we're baptized.

went well until the prosecuting

stirred up the people so effectively
that it was found advisable to send
Paul away by sea.

Timothy, remained at Berea, but
Paul went on to Athens. While
