SIX FEET AT SUMMIT

Six feet of snow on the level is the report from the Summit, Mile 12, and it is said that due to the heavy work on the road-hauling of ties-that it will be about July before this stretch of the highway will be entirely rid of snow. The reason for this, it was stated, is because this heavy fall of sno,y has been packed down so hard by tractors and sleds that it is now a frozen-mass and it will require 8 number of months suns rays to melt it down and away.

which destroyed two prominent bu-

H. D. Bloss Hardware Store and the
Flaxville Motor Company operated
by Swenson Brothers, dealers for
Chevrolet Motor cars in that ter

The loss was especially severe to
the motor company as it was a
modernly equipped garage in which
had been installed the very best Of
modern machinery, seven cars, three
of them new, were also in the build
ing at the time and were totally
destroyed.
The loss in the Bloss establishment
was not so heavy as most of the
stock and fixtures were removed
from the building before it was
destroyed.
The cause of the fire is not known
as the front of the garage was mass

meager fire fighting equipment of the
village was far from adequate tx

help was sent to the Scobey fire de-
partment which responded, taking
with them the chemical equipment o.

The wind, fortunately, was of {
favorable direction which kept thu
flames from spreading to othel

was much oil in both buildings th'

At Rochester, MINI.

Walt Williams, who as a boy spent
number of years in the Plentywooo
vicinity, and who later gained con
siderable fame in Seattle, Tacoma and
other Pacific Coast cities as a singer
is dead, the end coming at Rochester
Mimi, where he had gone to receive
treatment for ulcers of the stomach
His death came as shock to his
many friends here who were unaware

homesteaded piece of land east of
town near the site of the old powe.
plant. Later he engaged as barber
at Scobey, conducting a shop at that
place for a number of years. Later he
moved to Washington, where his
voice brought him into considerable
prominence and on many occasions he
delighted his old time friends with
radio concerts broadcast from Sc
attic stations.
He was thirty-eight years of age at
the time of his death and is sur
vived by his wife and brothers Blain
and Frank. Funeral services and bu-
rial took place at Scobey today.

Just Launched

The booze issue, it would appear,

American Temperance League, reput-
ed to be a national organization, with
headquarters in Chicago, has been
Introduced as an active working body
in Montana through the efforts of
Charles f. Tav'or, Pet Wallace, Rod
ney Salisbury and others actively
identified with the late Communistic
regime in Sheridan County.
The movement had it's initial i'm
petus last Tuesday afternoon and
evening when A. c. Townley, of Non
partisan League fame, gave two ad-
dresses on behalf Of the organization
in which he stated that the presen.
condition in regard to the Eighteenth
Amendment is intolerable and that
the law cannot be enforced and !.
change is therefore necessary.
The old fashioned saloon, however,
he stated, was a relic of the past,
never to return, so as an expedient,
he urged the adoption of a plan SINH
lar to that in vogue in Canada.
The organization, it is understood,
will be financed by membership dues
and donations.
Eoth meetings were favored with a
good attendance.
