BRIDGE WORK BEGINS

Wolf Pointers have watched
with bated breath each move since
the wheels we're first in motion
to bring a bridge to Wolf Point.
Notwithstanding the assurance
that every obstacle had been over
come, there were those who feared
that it was too much to expect
that the realization of their
dreams would come. To these as
we'll as all others in this vicinity
the coming of the bridge is
a big event. for it marks the be-
ginning of construction work
which will in the course of eigh-
teen months span the turbulent
and treacherous river which has
claimed an average toll of a life a
year from the citizens of this
community.
Bridging the Missouri will unite
the North Side and the Southside
more firmly. Southsiders will be
able to come to town and attend
evening entertainments and go
back home the same night, they
will not be shut off from the city
during the three weeks in the
Spring and Autumn when the
river has usually been impossible. :
It will in the course of time mean
that northern McCone county will
be more thickly settled. And be-
cause the bridge means so much
to this community, the citizens
feel a cordial interest in the com
ing of the workmen who are to
bring about the fruition Of our
dreams.

Wolf Point-Rin Timber

The Wolf Point-Big Timber con.
test was nip and tuck more than
half the way but the Sweet Grass
county five spurted in the third
period to take a six-point lead
which it held until the end. The
cor was, Big Timber 26, Wolf
Point 20.
Bechtels of Wolf Point started
cut with two long shots which hit
the net without touching the rim.
But it was just a flash and soon
Big Timber was leading 5 to 4.
Bechtel's field goal and a free
throw enabled the Pointers to lead
Z to 5 when the quarter ended.
Worstein of Big Timber succeed
ed in tying the score at 10-all about
the middle of the second period,
and a short time later Andrews
put the southerners into the lead.
1t was 1910 for Big Timber at
the half. Herman of Wolf Point
netted the tying goal on the first
play of the new half. But And

FIVE COWS ON A A r
CWilliston Herald

wv AlllolOI IlCl dluJ
Much has been said and written
concerning the ACCESSIBILITY of keep
ing a few good COWS on every
farm. General statements advis.
ing such a course are more or less
effective, but a more definite
illustration recently set forth by
a country banker is much more
convincing.
He declares that if each farmer
in his county had five good COWS
and sold the milk or cream they
produced, the cash returns would
do these things in a year:
Pay the farmers state and
county taxes.
Pay his automobile license and
buy two new tires.
Provide a $40 kitchen cabinet, a
$50 sewing machine and a $40
suite Of furniture for the farm
home and school books for the
children.
Clothe a family Of five persons.
Buy $50 worth of paint for the
farm buildings.
Besides doing all these, the fer
tilizer produced would increase
the soil fertility of the farm, and
the farmer would in addition have
all his calves for sale or for keep
ing to augment his herd.
The Herald has not checked up
on these figures to try to verify
their applicability to Williams
county; but undoubtedly they are
sufficiently correct to give one an
idea of the ability of five good
cows to provide comforts for the
farm home.
And the best part of it is, that
this a be more easily undertaken
by any farmer than any other
means of earning a living, for it is
usually easier for a farmer to Dor
row mOney-if he needs it-for
the purpose of buying good milk
COWS than for any other purpose,
and many a banker will freely
make a loan for that purpose even
when a farmer has exhausted his
credit for other ventures.

OUR NOW

Montana's twenty-first legisla-
ture assembly has dissolved and
their deliberations have resulted
in some legislation that was good,
constructive, some that was in
nocuous and some which appears
pernicious. At the same time
there were a number of good laws
which fell by the wayside. 1t is
a little hard to understand the
justice Of refusing the franchise
to people who may be confined to
their home through illness, thus
giving those who r contemplate
ing a pleasure trip on election,
into the next county, say, the
right to vote on absent voters
ballot. The drunken drivers law
is a good regulation, but why not
regulate the drivers who may not
be drunk but are merely %irrespon-
sible. The nominal fee required
for a license would supply funds
to take care of the expense of the
system, and would add to the
safety Of the people upon the
highways. incidentally the pos
sibility Of having a license revok-
ed for a period of time might re
suit in making reckless drivers
more cautious.
The Sunday dance law, which
has not yet been signed by Gov
ernor Erickson, passed, but the
bill, introduced by Mrs. Curran,
defining a habitual criminal and
providing punishment according
ly, was killed by the senate. An
other bill killed by the senate was
that permitting women to serve on
juries. Several bills were propos-
ed which were designed to make
it more difficult to contract
reckless careless marriages. One
would have required a period of
waiting between the time of re-
g"istration and the time a license
was issued. This would have per-
mitted investigation in case the
applicants appeared too young, or
if investigation seemed warranted.
Physical examination as a eugenic
measure, was one of the require
ments for marriage in one of the
bills. These bills were all design
ed to place obstacles in the way
of unsuitable marriages, but none
of the measures survived.
But the question of ways and
means seems to have been the
,tickler. Nearly all the revenue
were voted which
we're proposed with the view
o supply the state with
lnds sufficient to meet the
preparations which r neces-
airy if the state is going
!, keep pace with its W ex-
cr. An influx of settlers
creases the need of more c
hools; a growing prosperity in
e agricultural section results in t
ildren being sent to school for n
longer period; there is the need c
larger buildings and more Il
lipment; to obtain the best D

Tho defeated in both games
played, the local Wolves put up
a nice well-balanced brand of ball.
The impression they made may be
gained from the following two ac-
counts of the games in which they
took part, as viewed by the sports
writer of the Great Falls Tribune:
Anaconda-WoIf Point
Red Davidson of Anaconda was
''hot" in the first half of the Smell
ter city's game with Wolf Point.
Otherwise the northeastern dis
trict champions probably would
have made the start. Red cooled
off considerably in the second half
but the damage had been done
and Anaconda won 1920.
Anaconda was leading SO at the
end of the first quarter and David
son had made every point scored
by his team. Wolf Point present
ed a well balanced attack and the
guarding would have appeared
good under ordinary circumstan-
ces, but Davidson covered a lot
of territory and converted on shots
which are not ordinarily made.
The half ended with Anaconda
leading POLL. Four Wolf Pointers
had contributed to that teams to-
while Davidson alone had
scored Is points for his squad.
Anaconda elected to rest on her
in the second half. In the
period the Smelter city lads

at any previous time, while
Wolf Point continued to plug
The result was evident in
he score, for Anaconda's lead was
'educed to six points as the third
period ended. Both teams used
substitutes in the last period and
hey played on virtually even
.erms. Anaconda had a good
cheering section on hand but the
lo%npartisan spectators were pull
ng for the northern squad to win.
Game Too Short

quarter and the honors were about

lar shots which failed to go in but
the crowd got a thrill just the
same. The game ended with Big
