Teachers With
A Big Reception

The Parent Teachers association
had an interesting reception for the
teachers at the Catholic church par
lors last Friday evening. The af-
fair was informal, thus giving the
parents and teachers better oppor-
tunity to become acquainted.
As the guests entered the assem-
bly, room of the church basement,
they were tagged with names of such
celebrities as Mr.. and Mrs. Al Smith,
Mr.. and Mrs. Herbert Hoover, Presi-
dent and Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, Andy
and Min, etc. Later these persons
were called upon to make short
speeches. Most all of them made
some response, but when Cal was
called upon he simply had to live up
to his reputation by remaining ST.
lent. Mrs. Coolidge had nothing to
say, nor did son John.
The following program was ar
ranged as a part of the evenings
entertainment:
Welcome address: j. F. Murray,
President of the Association.
Introduction song: BY the teachers,
Paul Benin accompanying at the
piano.
Community singing: Mrs. E. Hell
geson accompanying.
Reading: By Halle Wheeler.
Vocal solo; By Supt. M. o. Glor-
wick.
A roll call of all the parents was
taken for the purpose of knowing
which class in school was best rep
resented This time the sirst grade
had the largest number of parents
present. A record is kept each month
and at the end of the year a prize is
awarded by the Association to the
grade having the highest record.
Last year the fifth grade carried off
the honors.
At the end of the evenings enter
tainment refreshments were served
for which the celebrities had to find
their respective partners.

OLD TIMERS STRONG
FOR GEO. BOLSTER

Geo. Bolster, candidate for county
assessor, is making a strong bid for
that office, and is being highly re-
commended by old time residents of
Sheridan county, who have known
Mr.. Bolster for many years. We are
printing herewith comments by two
pioneers of this county, who have
known Mr.. Bolster for many years.
Il have lived neighbor to Mr..
Bolster for % years, and he has al
ways been a good farmer and busi-
ness man. 1t was partly through his
efforts with Louis Hill that the
branch line of the Great Northern
was built. He got up a petition, cir
culated in and sent it to the surveyor
general and got the first two town
ships surveyed. He helped to org
anize the Farmers Elevator and Store
at Plentywood, helped to start the
Farmers Cooperative Creamery and
also helped start the Plentywood flour
mill. These are all good for the
farmers.
"Mr. Bolster is on the Democratic
ticket but is endorsed by the Repub-
lican party also. If he is elected as
county assessor, he will make a good
one."
FRED SUMMERS,
A Medicine Lake Farmer
Another farmer writes of Mr.. Boil
ster:
Il have known Mr.. G.. E. Bolster
for &c years. He has always farmeC
from so to 700 acres each year, ex-
cept the last years, in which time
he has spent selling groceries fol
John Sexton. He knows the farmers
side of it and if elected County As
SCISSOR he will make a good one. HI
is on the Democratic ticket but is al
so endorsed by the Republican
party"
