SCIENTISTS STUDYING
YIELD OF CRUDE OIL
Bureau of Mines Conducting I'm
portant Experiments
Here.

The Bureau of Mines is conducting
experiments in the belief that by-prod-
ucts Of crude oil may yield substitutes
for butter, lard, leather and rubber.
Fatty acids in the oil, the bureau be-
heves, will be the source of butter and
lard substitutes, while aromatic hydro
carbons may furnish artificial leather.
Those are only few of the infinite
variety Of everyday necessities that the
bureau holds to be a part of crude oil
In the fatty acids there may be soaps
and edible fats, while the aromatic n.y.
drocarbons may produce in the future
picric acid, dyestuffs, drugs, motor fuels,
explosives, perfumes, antiseptics, sac
charm and xylol.
Eventually, too, the scientists may de-
velop artificial rubber tires, druggists
supplies, waterproof clothing, electrical
insulation and cements, not to mention
the possibility that substitutes for var
niSh and linseed oils may be hidden in
the elements that make up crude petro-
leiIfn.

Says Lincoln County Roads Good.

Another traveller returns to Libby
convinced that other parts of the state
have worse roads than are found here.
DR.. r. j. Piedalue and family re-
turned recently from a visit with the
doctors people at Bozeman when they
also visited Yellowstone park. The
doctor says some terrible roads were
encountered near Helena and that
Lincoln county highways are boule-
wards in comparison. Much good work
has been and is now being done over
the county by the county commission
ers and the good effect of this work
is becoming more and more noticeable
from year to year. 1t is especially
noticeable that the highways remain
hard and free from ruts wherever
gravel has been placed.

InStallS Sound
Equipment in1heatre

Sound pictures have put the thexfres
in the smaller cities on a pay with
the very biggest theatres in the big
cities. There is nothing the big
theatres have that the smaller
theatres can not now have with the
sound pictures.
In the old days it was rather unfair
to have smaller four or five piece
orchestra try to give the same musical
accompaniment to big picture as
was rendered by the magnificent SYM
phony orchestra in the Roxy or CAM
toll Theatres in New York.
But today, that is all done away
with, for the same orchestra, whose
wonderful music is first captured in
the sound studios for any picture plays
equally as we'll whether shown in the
Roxy or any other theatre, regard
less of size.
And the same can be said of those
famous vaudeville acts which have
graced the big theatres of the country.
Not only will you be able to see these
famous names, like Clark and, McCul-
Tough, the Happiness Boys, Van and
Schenck and all the rest, but you will
actually hear them put over the hilar-
ious lines that have made them SO
famous.
And more than that can be ex-
pected, for the Kootenai Theatre has
announced that it has installed the De-
Forest Sound Equipment, which is
generally referred to as the Best
Sound in Town. This instrument, in
vented by the Great DR.. Lee DeForest,
is generally acclaimed to be the very
best of all sound reproducers now in
theatres.
The first presentation Of the sound
picture was given at the Kootenai
Tuesday night and seems to have
pleased the audience. Mr.. Kienitz has
secured fine program of sound pic
lures to be released durino the COM
ing weeks.

 Each year the water problem remain as much of a nut as it ever was And so long as tired business men are left to do the work, it will remain a problem.
 The building of dams is 8 job for men who specialize in that line of construction. Plans are usually drawn after an exhaust i've study of the drainage lands Then the plans are made to fit the situation.
 The town of Petersburg is no exception in Alaska, as practic- ally all the towns have dilly dal- led along until at considerable expense they at last get their water supply.
 No use crying over water that IS not in the dam now. Nor any use daming the dam which re- fuses to stay damned. The prob lem is for the future. What will t be; how will it be met and with what? Is their a feasible plan offered? Will it be accept ed and is it worth trying?

 That Christmas eve of old, And all the kings with offerings Of frankincense and gold, To Bethlehem's lowly stable door Where great and humble met To worship at Baby's feet That star is shrining yet. For when the bells Of Christ
 mas tide Ring out across the snow, And lighted windows with the And green of hollOy glow, And sweet and clear the carols Upon the midnight chill, On thrice ten million Christmas
 trees
 That star is shinging still.
