%, was started with s5O.72. At the
end OF the football season we had
about S150. New equipment for
basketball cut this down to S40.26.
Up to the time of the Williston
game the Council had taken in
S658.75 and had spent $623.35
Money was made on the Scobey
and Williston games, but lost on
the Bainville trip. We have had
splendid support this year, and we
hope it will continue, especially
if we have a championship team.
1t will take money to send them
to the district tournament and to
Bozeman, and some must be left
for track and to start football
next fall. The above figures do
not include money spent by indi-
vidual students for supplies, indi-
vidual citizens for YEA and teal
on cars, grade athletics, the Volt
meet, declamatory contest, voca-
tional conference, band trips, in
door baseball equipment. OF
course, part of the money comes
from other towns. The e%Xtra-cur-
ricular activities cost money, and
they represent a problem that is
still unsolved.

Report or Athletics
Handling the athletics Of a
school is no small job. The Wolf
Point high school has a hard
working student council that looks
the where-with-all to keep
our activities going. The council
has to plan the raising of funds
and it checks expenditures.
1925-26 was the Tournament
year. We started with nothing
and ended the year with a balance
Of S200.97 besides the new seats
N the gym. Last year we had a
championship team. Such a team
brings in money, but also costs
money. In 1925-26 we handled
~S2247.32. In 1926-27, we handled
s1331.S4. We started with a bal
nee of S20O.97 and ended with

GAMBLING RAID
WARRANT IS HIT
Judge Dismisses Case, Hold
ina Procedure Was Con-
trary to Law.

A warrant for an arrest is no justifi-
cation for raid on an alleged gambling
establishment. Judge Robert L, Mat
tingly decided in Police Court today in
dsmisSing the case against Leo l.
Wallach. proprietor of an alleged book
making establishment on the third floor
of 1910 G street that was raided on
the night of January Z, by Sergt. o. j.
Letterman and Detectives r. j. Cox
and j. f. Kane, of the first precinct.
Going into the law of arrest and
seizure. the judge condemned the pro-
ceedure declared often employed by
police in making raids. The proper
procedure, he told them, was to lay the
facts before the United States attorney
or judge and get search warrant, not
a warrant for the arrest Of a particular
individual.
The particular officers in the case
were not reprimanded. however, Judge

The dryS concede that they would
have very little chance of stopping
Wadsworth If the choice is left to the
State committee Wadsworth has not yet
indicated his position regarding the
Hoover candidacy. The dry opposition
to Wadsworth is predicted solely on
the belief that he may carry his fight
against the eighteenth amendment and
Volstead act into the nominating con-
yentioh
This is also their reason for opposing
the sending of President Nicholas Muir
ray Butler OF Columbia as a delegate.
DR. Butler already has declared that he

PAUL IN EPHESUS
The International Uniform Sunday School Lesson for Oct. q.
PauI in Fphesus. Acts 19:81O. 1920: Ephesians 4:11-16. 10


IRON Corinth, after his extend
ed visit, Paul came to Ephesus.
The growth of the Christian fell
lowship from it's early beginning
in Europe, or the extent to which
the early Christians were travellers
journeying about from place to
place, is evidenced In the fact that
Paul found certain disciples here
at Ephesus.
Here at Ephesus Paul, for about
three months, spoke in the syna-
rogue. Then when opposition be-
came aroused he withdrew from
the synagogue with the disciples
and carried on his religious teach
ing in the school Of Tyrannus.
But here as elsewhere the new
faith and experience created diff
culties through collision with false
religious customs and with the
spirit of worldliness and evil. The
collision came through the opposi-
ton of Demetrius, a silversmith,
who found the new faith making
serious inroads upon his trade as
people became converted from Pa
ganism to the Christian way.
Demetrius and his fellow crafts
men made silver Shrines for use
in connection with the pagan wor-
ship of Diana. 1t would, of course.
have been useless to stir up oppo-
sition to Paul and popular preju-
dice against the new faith by say
ing I'VE are losing money by this
affair" Behind closed doors the
silversmiths did, of course, say
"our craft is in danger but like
most unprincipled men, whose rul-
ing motive in life is their OWE self
ish interest, they tried to cloak
their designs with religion III their
effort TO sir NJ opposition to Paul
So instea . I saying I'VE are
likely to lose money" they raised
the cry, Great is Diana of the
Ephesians." The ruse was as sue
cessful as it is eve in modern days
and serious trouble was stirred up
for Paul and his companions.
Fortunately, however, Ephesus
