R N u PEOPLE

In spite Of all the loose talk and writing about the 'wiIc
youth of the present day, recent statistics from the Bureau
of Education indicate that the percentage Of earnest young
people is still very high.
These statistics show that one-half of the young men
and one fourth of the young women in the colleges and uni
versities of the United States are earning their schooling in
whole or in part through working outside of school hours
In one year more than $33, 900, 900 was earned by the
labor Of students.
Among the part-time jobs held by students are office
work automobile repairing, speciality selling, teaching, hotel
and summer resort employment, household service, farm
work and other activities.
In the face of such a showing as is being made, it can
hardly be maintained that the young generation is as frivo-
lous as it's critics would have us believe.

TOUR PLANNED BY FARMER!
OF 3 COUNTIES

Glasgow-A tour of Valley, Phil
lips and Blaine county irrigation
farmers is announced by G. H. Bin.
CHAM, associate extension agent. II
will concern irrigation matters ir
the Milk river valley. Mr.. Bingham
says:
This is the best year we have
ever had in the history of the Milk
river irrigation project to actually
see the value of irrigation water
properly applied. Unless water had
been used at the right time and in
the right way this year, crops
would not be of much value. Methods
for production of sugar beets are
becoming fairly well standardized
but few farmers are producing good
grain, corn, sweet clover and other
irrigated crops"
The tour begins Wednesday morn
ing, leaving Malta Thursday morn
ing and Chinook Friday morning.
Tentative plans call for stops at a
number of irrigated farms in each
county. Outstanding grain crops will
be compared with poor crops. Good
and poor beet, potato and corn fields
will be visited and methods of pro-
duction and irrigation compared. Ex-
%periences of farmers will be assem-
bled by Agent Bingham.

FEE MUST ACCOMPANY
SAMPLES FOR TESTING
OF PROTEIN CONTENT

Glasgow-According to a new re-
gulation of the state department Of
agriculture effective July l, all
miscellaneous samples of grain sub
mitted for testing for protein con-
tent must be accompanied by the test
fee of rs cents. If samples are re-
ceived unaccompanied by the fee
the chemists are instructed to write
a letter requesting the fee and stat
ing that the test can not be perform
ed until it has been received. Chemist
Goodwin Joselowitz in charge of the
Glasgow laboratory reports that a
number of samples are received in
every mail now, though the guam
tity is much less than in other
years. This is the result Of the
drouth conditions resulting in a poor
crop and also due to the fact that q
smaller bonus is being paid for high
protein content than is usual. The
protein value of all wheat being
marketed this year is exceptionally
large.-Courier.

board that bathers We're frequenting
the pool during the late night, and
early morning hours. Complaints
have been received that persons have

bridge to span the Yellowstone river
Immediately east of here next year.
At the last session of the Montana
highway commission in Helena it
was agreed to recommend the bridge

highway to the federal department
at Washington.
Mr.. Mutt recently returned from
Washington, where he spent several
days in the interests of the bridge.
Engineers from the federal highway
department, along with river ex-
perts from the army department, will
view the proposal during the next
10 days.
Mr.. Nuts interest at this tina is
to get the army departments ap-
proval to declare the river unnavig-
able at this point, thus avoiding the
necessity of a high structure so as
to save approximately $65, 1000 in
costs.
The North Dakota highway COM

THE ADVERTISING DOLLAR

When a business man spends a dollar in advertising
any good line, he gets several kinds of returns. This is not
understood by some merchants, who feel that the only re-
turn comes from the sale Of the article specifically advertised
When a customer is attracted by one article advertised
by some store, he often buys stuff not mentioned in the ad-
vertising. and which he would never have seen had it not
been for the advertising. Also it is constantly happening,
that when a customer buys one advertised article, he forms
a favorable impression Of that store and is led to visit it
frequently The dollar spent in advertising often brings
hundreds of dollars through new trade started.-Carson

THE LOCAL BANK MERGER

The merging Of the two local banking institutions Of
this city is indicative of a new order of things in Northeastern
Montana, and the omen it portends is decidedly optimistic.
These two banks, reted among the most substantial of
this region, joining forces as they do while in the most pros
porous condition of their many years of service, are enabled,
by pooling their assets, to present a financial showing that is
decidedly imposing and reflects credit upon the substantial
nature Of the region they serve.
This action, on the part of the two banks is in line with
modern business tendencies Of today. 1t is recognized as the
sound and safe way to extend business, to be of greater SER
vice to the public and at the same time be assured of a rea-
sonable financial return.

Most careers are made or marred after supper says a
shrewd observer. 1t is at this period of the day that most
of us cease from labor and have three or four hours to do
with as we please. A few use this time for self-improve-
ment. The majority use the evening hours for pleasure or
dissipation. They constitute the class that complains that
they never had a chance in life. Most great men and WON
en- are what they are because they made proper use of the
after supper hours-Fairmont Sentinel.

ROLE OF STRONG MAN
By RAY TUCKER
Times staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-South-
ern drys attempt to embarrass Sec
retary Mellon through his opposi-
ton to an additional $24,000,000 for
prohibition enforcement may cast
the Pensylvanian in the role of the
strong man. Of the Coolidge cabinet
and enhance his excellent chances
for continuing under the Hoover ad-
ministration.
AS house leaders prepared today
to try to defeat the $4,000, 900
amendment attached to the def
ciency bill in the senate, even ancient
foes of Mellon declared they would
side with him on the ground that
his stand furnished an opportu-
nifty ito break the grip on congress
and the federal government which
organized drys represented by the
Anti-Saloon League have enjoyed
for many years.,
In this group are many house
vets, including members from New
York, New Jersey and Massachu-
sets.
Hooyer's First Test
Though fearful that the fight
be desperate and the vote close,
house leaders declared the conflict
centered around wether the drys
would be able to force fundamen-
tai change in the government.
Appropriation of $4,000, 900 to be
used at the discretion of any in
dividual, they contended, was con-
trary to all the forms of demo-
cratic government. Never before,
they asserted, had the Anti-Saloon
League sought to exercise euchs IN
fluence on both legislative and exc
cutive branches.
Friends of Hoover declared a VIC
tory for the Anti-Saloon League
now would mean the next congress
and Hoover administration would be
subjected to the drys' domination.
The present conflict is character
lied as the first test of many ex-
pected to come between the Presi-
dent-elect and his prohibition sup
porterS.
Work at Cross Purposes
With the drys divided, some favor
ing the appropriation and others o.
posed, it is reported Bishop Cannon
of Virginia was to come here TO take
charge of his congressional forces.
The Anti-Saloon League plans to
utilize all its influence against Mel
lon. It's chieftains express conf
dence they can duplicate their SEN
ate triumph.
The drys have been working at
cross purposes. F. Scott Mcbride,
Anti-Saloon League superintendent,
may lose his job because he origi-
nally espoused Mellon, his superior,
as well as heads of the Methodist
Church South, publicly repudiated
him. DR. Clarence True Wilson of
the Methodist board of prohibition,
temperance and public morals,
agreed with Mellon at first, but has
since changed his mind.

headed by Representative William

ed by the house or representatives
committee on the affairs of the city
of Indianapolis Is to begin survey
of the financial status of the Citi-
zens Gas Company.
Representatives John e. King Of
Indianapolis and Lowry were ap-
pointed by Bosom to serve with
Bosom upon the committee.
Decision TO investigate the f1nan-
cial and physical condition of the
property was made after several
members of the house committee
expressed the suspicion that the
company might turn out to be an
improbable bit of business for the
city.
Inasmuch as the mains Of the
company in the downtown section
have been in use for more than
twenty-five years, they might not
be in the best of condition, men,
bers said.
It was decided to- permit intro
duction Of the bills and keep them
in committee until the report on the
condition of the company is made
to the committee.
One bill clarifies the right of the
city to take over the utility and the
other sets up a form of municipal
management.
