Miss Irene Farley In
Plentywood on Business

Miss Irene Farley, formerly a
reporter on the Havre Daily News,
dropped in for a Whit to The Pro-
ducers News office yesterday. Miss
Farley is now travelling selling
class rings.
While on her way here from
Havre, Miss Farley met with an
accident at Frazer when her car
tipped over. The glass on the car
was broken and so were a couple
of Miss Farley's ribs. However,
the pluclzy little lady got her ribs
bandaged and went about her
business. She says that if Adam
could get along without a rib there
is no reason why she cannot get
along with a couple of damaged
ones.
Miss Farley was reared in Tag
us, N. D., but thinks Montana is
a perfectly fine state. She also
believes The Producers News is
the leading farmers weekly in the
country and everybody agrees
with her.

ELINOR GLYN AIRS
NEW VIEWS ABOUT
MARRIAGE TERMS

Companionate marriage is only
a halfway measure of precaution,
according to Elinor Glyn, whose
story, "The Man and the Moment" 4"
has been made into a picture of
unusual beauty and interest by
First National with the exquisite
Billie Dove in the leading role.
In this high society story the
heroine goes still further and Sc
cures an agreement for immediate
divorce following a marriage that
is to free her from the hands of
an unreasonable guardian before
she consents to the marriage itself.
But even these carefully laid plans
go slightly wrong as the wedding
of convenience turns out to be
more than she bargained for.
Miss Dove has never had love-
lier frame for her great beauty,
With George Fitzmaurice directing
and with story which deals only
with high life and brilliant set
tings, "The Man and the Moment
is all that a motion picture can
be in artistry, story and star. II

YOUNG COUPLE WED

Last Thursday, September 18th,
Mr.. Christen F. Christensen and
Miss Kathryn Hovdey were joined
in the holy bonds of matrimony at
the Lutheran parsonage in this
city, Rev. Egge saying the words
which made them husband and
wife. Maurice Plaisance acted as
best man and Cora Risa as brides
maid.
Following the ceremony a we'd
ding dinner was partaken of at
the Elgin, from which place the
newlyweds autoed to Regina, Can
ada, where they spent a short
honeymoon.
The bride is a daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Carl Hovdey, well known
farmers of the Raymond-O Outlook
country, and is one of Plentywood's
fairest young ladies. She has been
employed as stenographer in the
office of Attorney A. G. Erickson
for the past two years and has
spent the greater share of her life
in Sheridan county, growing TO
young womanhood in the Ray
mond- Outlook community.
The groom is one of Plenty
woods substantial young men. A
young man of excellent habits and
highly respected by all. He has
been employed at the county court
house for number of years and
is at the present time Deputy As
SCISSOR.

son house, which has been COM

alton lawyer in the United States
and favorite of the House of Nor
gan, working in cooperation with
the British foreign office is mainly
responsible for getting league ac-
ceptance of American reservations.
Root figures out that once the
United States is in the world court
the reservations will not cut any
ice. AS a matter of fact all govern
ments have reservations regarding
league decisions. If they find the
decisions against their interests
they refuse to accept them. That's
all.
British agents here fear that the
United States senate will block
the league of nations policy of
President Hoover, whose action in

bottle of whiskey in his hands.
Believe it or not, the gentleman in
the scanty underwear was the
same person encountered by Cor

Sheriff Withstamds Shock
What with reading about naked
DoukhobOrs, the sheriff was sea
soned to the sight that met his
gaze and he did not faint nor fall

is said to have inquired about the
ownership of the unlicensed car.
The man in underwear replied:

The sheriff bowed and suggest

possible.

Geneva, Sept. 1.-THE first
commission of the League of Ma
tions assembly unanimously adopt
ed the Root protocol accepting the
United States reservations for ad-
hesion to the world court.
The world court and the league
are practically one institution, the
court being somewhat like a cloak
room to Geneva. Since the death
of Woodrow Wilson, American fl
nance capital has been working ov-
ertime trying to ease the United
States into the League of Nations
but the voters in every election ov-
erwhelmingly defeated candidates
suspected of league sympathies.
Despite this expression of popular
disapproval the peoples represen-
tatives in the White House have
acted as the tools of the Wall
Street money barons and have
sought to sneak the country into
the league. So far the senate has
been able to block this conspiracy.

SENATOR TAYLOR
ANSWERS UPSHAW::
SCORES 'BIGOTS"

Senator Charles E. Taylor, of
Sheridan county, in an interview
with a representative of The Pro-
ducers News in reply to the at
tack made by Ex-congressman Up
shaw of Texas on the American
Temperance League said:
"Mr. William d. Upshaw's
speech as reported in a dispatch
from Minot, North Dakota, consists
of the usual hokum characteristic
of Anti-Saloon. League propagan-
da.
"In his attacks upon the Ameri-
can Temperance League, the noted
dry orator did not condescend to
discuss the program of the Ameri-
can Temperance League but resort
ed to the usual lying of Anti-Sa-
loon League bigots. The wheel
horse of Volsteadism defended
the constitution of the United
States by denying to citizens the
right to amend the constitution by
the repeal of any law which ex-
perience proves TO be undesirable
and inimical to the best interests
of the people, one of the most sa-
cred rights in a democracy. The
Mussolinis of the Anti-Saloor
League, not content with fastening
an obnoxious law upon the people
by means of corruption and fraud
are now attempting to prevent the
citizens of this republic and the
sovereign states from using theil
constitutional right to free them
selves from the curse of Volstead
ism and the dictatorship of the
Anti-Saloon League.

DACMAR COMMUNI-
TY TO HOLD FAIR

Preparations are rapidly going
ford for the annual Dagmar Com
munity Fair, which are always a
big success, both from the stand
point of knowledge and recreation.
The committee in charge has
requested the Producers News to
ask those who are bringing exhi-
bits to present them to Mr.. P.

Of that department.
Besides the many exhibits which
will be worth seeing, a full pro-
gram of sports have been ar
ranged including racing, horse shoe
contests and other sports.
Cash prizes viii be awarded t,
the winners in Boys and Girls Al
Club work.
No doubt the 1929 Dagmar Fail
will draw a large crowd as usua
and even though the drouth has
been severe, those in charge are
of the opinion that the public will
be surprised with the size and
quality of the agricultural exhibits
The culinary, canning and fancy
work department will also be well
worth feasting the eyes upon as
the ladies of the Dagmar commu-
nifty are noted in these lines.
AS an added attraction to the
Dagmar Fair this year will be a
Public Sale at which the public IS
invited to bring items that they
wish to dispose of. The items
are to be listed at the Dagmar
store where they will be advertis-

for sale should bring them in as
soon as possible and not later than
five days before the sale.
