Mr.. Smith was the father of 10
children, five of whom preceded
him in death. Those surviving are,
Mrs. Ezila Carlson, George R.,
Herbert, Russell, Richard, Harry,
Marjorie and Marvin and the sor-
rowing wife.
Funeral services were held at
Vahner church Saturday at 2:30,
Rev. Stowell of the Medicine Lake
Lutheran church officiating. The
pail bearers were Chas. Norton,
Fielding Bush, Harry Richwine,
Henry Henke, Fred Henke ana
Lester Norton.
The sympathy of the entire COM

COHENS AND KELLYS
NOW IN THE TALKIES

The ever popular screen comedy
team, Cohen and Kelly, have brok-
en- out into noise, dialogue, argu-
ments and repartee, as will be
heard here when 'The Cohens ana
Kellys in Atlantic City" is shown
at the Orpheum Wednesday, Oct. 2.
Geo. Sidney is again the featured
star in the latest of this laughable
Universal series. Vera Gordon,
Mack Swain and Kate Price play
the other featured roles while Nora
Lane and Cornelius Keefe have the
romantic roles. VIM. j. Craft di-
rected the picture, much of which
actually was taken at Atlantic
City.
The squabbles of the business
partners, Cohen and Kelly, and
their wives, make hilarious comedy
unusually suited to talk-film pre-
sentation. In this picture they are
IN the bathing suit business. How
they sage a $4,000 bathing beauty
contest at Atlantic City against
their will, makes an interesting
story, full of funny situations.

ALAMO ROBBERS
LAIR LOCATED IN
SHERIDAN COUNTY
Car TOwed to Old Barn Near
DOOley Where Bandit Gang Had
Hidden HangOut.

The automobile used by the Ala
mo, N. d. bank bandits when they
robbed the bank of Alamo on Sep
tember 10th, was found in an un-
used barn about 25 miles west of
the Alvis LAGRANGE farm, from
which is was stolen on August 80.
LaGrange lives on a farm four
miles west of Raymond.
When stolen from the garage the
transmission on the car was lock-
ed so it is thought the automobile
had been pushed on to the high
way and towed behind truck or
car operated by the bandits to the
barn where the lock could be op-
ened. The barn is two miles from
the Anton Halskoal farm. 1t is
large enough to house two cars
and has been in disuse for a num-
ber of years.
Bandits Camped In Barn
Wrappers for bread, tin cans
and egg shells were scattered about
the barn, indicating that the four
bandits had camped there for some
time. A log chain which had been
used to tow the car and the license
number 63-342 which had been re-
moved were found in the barn.
Either different licenses were used
by the bandits or the car was
driven without one.
A circle on the floor of the cal
where a cream can of gasoline had
been carried showed that the men
had arranged for emergencies.
Car Run 1884 Miles
When stolen the speedometer on
the car registered 2100 miles and
when found it indicated 3734 miles
showing that the bandits had COW
cred considerable distance before
going to the barn.
The Essex is of a standard fac
tory green with black tenders. 1t
had been kept in good mechanical
shape by the robbers and showed
no more serious damage than a
cracked spring and mended tire
when returned. The steering gear
on the car had been frightened.
Pieces of glass in the taillight
which had been cracked when taken
were found still intact.
Surety Company Pays
Word. was. received yesterday
that the Natinoal Surety company
of New York and Minneapolis had
paid the bank the amount of their
loss, $4,375.17. No trace of the
robbers has been found.

$500 IN CASH
IS OFFERED FOR
SUITABLE NAME
Crosby Creamery Is Staging a
Novel Contest to Find Name fOr
Their Products.

Here you are folks: a chance to
make a little easy money. $75 in
prize money is to be awarded by
the new Crosby Creamery in a
novel contest that started last week
and which will continue until Oc-
tober 9th.
Here is the proposition. The new
Crosby Creamery which has been
in operation for the past two
months has been producing some
of the finest ice cream and most
delicious butter, but these pro
ducts, as yet, are nameless. The
proprietors have been trying to
think up some "snappy" and ap-
propriate trade name for their pro-
ducts, but they can't name them.
So they have hit upon the novei
idea of letting the people in the
community they serve, select the
name for them. And they are go
ing to pay literally for a name
that suits them. $4,000 in cash
will be given to the person who
suggests that name that will be
adopted as the trade name for the
ice cream and $500 in cash will
be given to the person who sug-
gests the name for their butter.
The rules of the contest are
simple and are as follows:
1. Each person will be allowed
to submit two names each for the
butter and ice cream.
2. Each person participating IN
the contest must reside either IN
Northwestern North Dakota or IN
Northeastern Montana.
8. No names submitted or mall
ed after October 9Th, 1929 viii De
considered.
Cards for submitting the names
can be obtained by applying d1rect
to the creamery.
You have often heard the ques-
tion whats in a Name" No
doubt there are hundreds OF
names which mean nothing, but
there is hard cash in the name fol
you if you suggest the right one
Something original is what Il
wanted; something that viii Ok
easy to pronounce and also thai
will fit the excellent quality o.
the products to be named.

AvIATORs STORM BOUND

Dutch Harbor, Unalaska, Sept.
25.-The crew of the Russian air
plane "Land of the Soviets" was
storm bound here today after a
narrow escape from terrific
southeast gale that nearly smashed
the plane on rocks as it arrived
in the harbor yesterday from Attu.
The four members of the crew
and the plane were saved only by
the rapid work of the coast guard
cutters Chelan and Haida, which
prevented an untimely ending of
the Moscow to New York expe-
dition of the Russians.
Motor launches from the cutters
were rushed to the plane as it
alighted at 2 p. m. and after two
hours of hard work, succeeded in
taking the four men to safety and
tying the plane to a mooring buoy.
The crew was taken aboard the
Chelan, where dry clothing and
hot food and comfortable state
rooms were provided.
The aviators announced today
that if the weather calms they
hope to start tomorrow for Seward.

DAY NIGHT, OCT. 5
Tommy CrOne of COalridge Will
Meet Paul Hueth of PlentywOOd
In Main Bout. Winner to Fight
Chief Robbins of Poplar Here
Labor Day. Good Preliminaries
on Card.

For the first time in many
months, the boxing fans of Plenty
wood and vicinity will have an op-
portunity to witness a fine box
ing card at the Farmer-Labor Tenn
pie in this city Saturday evening,
October 5th, commencing at $40
o'clock.
The main event of the evening
will be 10-round go between
Tommy Crone of Coalridge ana
Paul Hueth of Plentywood.
Tommy Crone has made a repu-
tation for himself since taking up
boxing about two years ago and
his recent defeat of Bill McGinty
at Brush Lake puts him in the
class of a coming young boxer. He
is in perfect shape for his bout
with Hueth and the fans will see
plenty of action from the young
Coalridge boxer who carries real
wallop in either hand. Paul Hueth
is more or less of dark horse in
the coming bout. His hackers say
he has got everything and that he
is going to be the surprise of the
evening. Coming from family
of fighting stock, young Hueth
is developing rapidly and is being
coached in ring tactics by well
known boxers whose names have
