Household programs have been
altered since the days OF our grand
mothers. Then the advent Of spring
meant an upset period in every home.
Torn-up carpets, all-day beatings IN

curtains. blankets and bed-spreads
that took days to launder by the old
scrub board method all terrible
drudgery for the housewife.

cleaning holds no terrors. Even the
most aeulate homemaker finds

they are spun dry by the centrifugal

$9,000,000, the natural gas values in
the state are infinitely more precious
and important to the state than the
oil, the speker told his audience.
Discussing the oil and gas industry
and its future in Montana, Major
Howard pointed out that in the Kew
in-Sunburst field alone there is a gas
reserve estimated at 100000, 900
cubic feet, sufficient to supply all the
industrial uses of the seven largest
cities in the state for the next 60
years.
Montana is rich in natural gas
supply and it represents a greater po-
tential value to the state than does
the oil industry, he said. Montana
gas will soon be used as far east as

That is the story of Capt. w. B.

Hicks was born in Lawton, Okla,

"Custer was not tomahawked," he
says, "nor did he commit suicide to
