Here to Keep up Record
of Many Years.

clan, has been marching four hours at
the crack of dawn each day to get him
self into shape for the presidential in
augural parade. He will accompany
the Topeka Drum Corps to the Capital,
and the sidewalks of Washington will
reverberate with such selections as the
BLACK Cat" Marching Through Geor-
gia,' Yankee Doodle Dixie" 1.-The
Girl Left Behind Me" and the Village
Quickstep," woven into drum beats by
the aged Civil War veteran
Vice President-elect Curtis home
townsmen will drum" him into office
an old habit of theirs since they
"drummed" him in as Shawnee County
attorney back in 1884.
Charlie Curtis needs me in Wash
ington," Mr.. Bates told comrades in the
Colorado Old Soldiers Home recently
My old fife has made music for him
in many Kansas elections, and its voice
Is sweeter now than ever"
The members of the corps who plan
to make the trip are sons or grandsons
of Civil War veterans. The organiza-
ton will leave Topeka next Friday.

Twins Mother
Proves Claim

Children don't ordinarily take
to medicines, but here's one that
all of them love. Perhaps it
shouldn't be called a medicine at
all. It's more like a rich, con-
centrated food. It's pure, whole
some, sweet to the taste and sweet
in your child'S little stomach.
1t builds up and strengthens
weak, puny, underweight children,
makes them eat heartily, brings
the roses back to their cheeks,
makes them playful, energetic,
full Of life. And no bilious, head
achy, constipated, feverish, fret
full baby or child ever failed to re-
Spond to the gentle influence Of
California Fig Syrup on their lit
tie bowels. 1t starts lazy bowels
quick, cleans them out thorough
ly, tones and strengthens them so
they continue to act normally of
their own accord.
Millions of mothers know about
California Fig Syrup from expert
ence. A Washington mother. Mrs.
Nellie L. Wetzel, 3O2 Fourth st.
NE, says: California Fig Syrup
is certainly all that's claimed for
it. have proved that with my
twin girls. They suffered a lot
from constipation and biliousness.
I started them on Fig Syrup and
it regulated them quick. I have
used it with them ever since for
colds and every little setback, and
their wonderful constitution tells
better than words how it helps"
Don't be imposed on. See that
the Fig Syrup you buy bears the
name California" so You'll get
the genuine. famous for SO wears.

LIBERTY MOTOR GIVEN
Renewed LEASE OF LIFE
Army Uses Wartime Product for
Armored Car and Track
Layer.

BY the Associated Press.
The Liberty motor, heralded at its
birth during the war as a mechanical
triumph, but now declared unreliable
for aviation as compared with modern
motors, may secure new lease of life
in another field.
Army mechanics have placed the
Liberty in the Christie tank, modified
as an armored car, and are going to
give it series of thorough tests. It
can operate either as a wheeled or
track-laying vehicle. On recent test
between Fort Leonard Wood, Md. and
Gettysburg, distance of 70 miles, it
covered the ground on wheels one way
and as a track-layer the other in less
than three hours.
There are about 1000 Liberty motors
still on hand, but the Air Corps. by
congressional legislation, may use them
only to replace motors in old planes.

PROSPECTS fine
FOR RACE MEET

Helena.-Nearly $50 horses are now
in Montana to compete in races at the
various fairs, according to A. u.
Thomas, state fair secretary, who has
made a survey of the situation to de-
termine if possible just what racing
material will be on hand for the state
exposition, September 1928.
One hundred horses competed for
the prizes offered at the central Mon
tana fair which closed last week, ac-
cording to Mr.. Thomas, and with the
number already stabbed at Billings, for
the contests this week, and with those
enroute from the Canadian circuit,
there will be the largest gathering OF
race horses in this state that has ever
been gotten together. All of the thor
oughbreds will be on hand ut Helena,
Mr.. Thomas says, and he looks for at
least 800 race followers alone to at
tend the big show.
The Central Montana fair was \
success in every way, according to the
state fair secretary, who said that the
Midland Empire fair just closing 1t
Billings was also successful. The
Midland Empire fair uses the pari-
mutual form of wagering on horse
races as does the other larger fairs,
including the Central Montana fair.
This feature increases the revenue for
the show as we'll as brings about =
new and lively interest.
The Missoula fair will be held one
week prior to the state fair and this
show likewise is featuring the horse
racing as it has done in the past four
years. The horsemen ship from Bill
lings to Bozeman, thence to Missoula
and then back to Helena for the state
fair, according to Mr.. Thomas.

Toby NOrd's Comedians
And Their Views and Ideas
About Tent Show License

Toby Nord tent theatre, company
of dramatic players having played
Libby for the past two seasons, were
not allowed to play in the city limits
of Libby, on account of the city coun-
Gil raising the license to fee that
would not allow our show to play
here this season. The license is high,
unreasonable. The amount we would
have to pay with the county license
for one week, would be one hundred
and twenty dollars. Our profit last
year was about two hundred dollars,
and we will gladly show our income
tax report to anyone. Our people have
always enjoyed the fishing and have
made many friends in and around
Libby. We pay cash for everything
we buy, stop at your hotels and eat
in the local cafes, come in and play
on our own merits, take the loss with
the gain. Licenses we pay in other
towns in Montana are as follows:
Dillon $500 per day, Hamilton S1750
a week, Poison $500 week, White
fish $500 a week.
We have a wire from city Of Kali
ispell to our show received at Baker,
Oregon that city license for our
show would be the same as before.
We have in our employ three Ameri-
can Legion men, one disabled soldier,
one veteran of foreign wars. We are
Americans, and have the right to
make an honest living, as long as we
have clean and upright business.
We ask you people Of Libby, is this
right. to keep you from having lit
tie change from steady diet of
amusement?
If the people Of Libby want Toby
Nord's Comedians to play here, very
soon, we have the following to sub

Toned backs and seats. Children would
be fifteen cents each night. The rear

for adults. If the people of Libby will
mail a postal card with their name

stand to play here this season. All
names will be held confidential. Mail
