During our participation in the
World War, when many industr-
ial plants were working overtime
to keep up with war orders. |
heard the principal of one of the
big high schools at Akron, Ohio,
ask a conference of educators
this question: "What can | say
to my boys that will keep them
in high school when they are Of
fered sixteen doyars a day for
working in an automobile tire
factory ?"
What do you say now? Could
he present the ultimate value of
high school education so effec-
lively as to offset the present
value of the high wage offered
his boys? You will agree that
he and all other principals at that
time had a real difficulty under
those conditions in keeping boys
In school.
When wages are high, 1t may
be a question whether one should
continue his education or work to
earn money.
But in a time like this, when
economic conditions all over the
country are difficult, when wages
are low, when there is much I'M
employment, conditions are revers-
ed and it pays best to devote ones
time to earning credits in high
school or college.
A boy or girl who has good
health and a good mind, who has
completed high school, should be
able to find enough work of var
ious sorts in the college neighbor-
hood to meet necessary expenses.
There will be friendly souls on the
faculty and in the community.
Thousands of influential citizens
can testify to this from their own
college experience. What has been
done, can be done.
Another point. The young man
or woman who stays out of col
lege and holds regular job may
be forcing married man out Of
work. His wife and children are
absolutely dependent upon that
very income which the younger
person does not really need.
Parents, teachers, ministers,
friends, will do we'll to advise the
young folks to "stay in school"
this year. Credits can be earned
more economically than at any
time for a decade. When times
improve, the Eoling people can
take jobs, if they wish, at higher
wages than at present and they
will then have, moreover, the adj
dltional educational work to their
credit.
Bad as the War was from many
standpoints, it did give an impetus
to education. The soldiers saw
that their officers were mostly col
lege-trained men. Those who came
back sought more education for
themselves. Those who made the
supreme sacrifice had done their
bit for education because their let
tiers home babe their younger bro
theirs and sisters: "Stay in School,"
An economic depression always
hurts the highest interests of the
country. Education suffers with
the church. But the school and the
church are building for the future
and whatever hurts them in the

Lightning and Swimming

The bureau of standards says
that it does not consider it dam
gerous to go swimming when it
is lightning. This does not mean
that one cannot be killed by light
ming while in swimming. The
chances, however, of one being
killed by lightning while SWIM
ming are comparable to the chances
one takes while walking in a field
and in an everyday working life
may be considered unimporlant.

INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC
SCARE AT POP LIAR
FOUND NOT SERIOUS
Cases All Isolated On Order
of State Board of Healsh;
DR.. Swanson Receivers

The Poplar people are now going
about their business again and the
panicky condition which prevailed
there last week over the four deaths
which occurred from strange NAL
ady, has subsidized
DR.. J. H. Crouch, epidemiologist of
the state board of health, stated that
the disease was apparently malignant
meningitis or some form Of influen-
"a, and every precaution has been ta-
ken to check the spread of the dis
ease. The people were warned to
avoid sick folks, staying away from
coughing and sneezing and boil all
utensils used.
DR.. Crouch stated that the residents
of Poplar claimed the epidemic had
been caused by milk and water, but
tests were made by him which dis
approved these theories and shows
that the disease is spread through d.
rect personal contact.
We understand DR.. Swanson, who
had been very i'll with this disease IS
now fully recovered.

son, coal miners who were visiting
there at that time.
No sooner had those arrested been
brought to Plentywood than Rodney
Salisbury, the other political dictator
of the opposition came to the res
cue of Mig Collins by signing bond
for his appearance. Ellen Johnson
and the Winters woman were placed
in the custody of Mrs. Kate Duggan,
and Sunday morning Salisbury signed
bonds for the Johnson woman also.
Evelyn Winters was locked up in Jail
Sunday morning as she was unable
to get bonds.
Attorney Truax Greer, democratic
nominee for county attorney has been
retained by this worthy trio to defend
them. Mig Collins plead ne guilty
and Greer demurred to the oonplaint
against the Johnson woman We also
understand that ex-county attorney
Erickson has or may be retained by
the defense as Mig Collins has been
in conference with him.
It is stated that when the raid was
made, very damaging evidence was
obtained from Andrew Olson and
Ammon Magnusson which is of such
nature that we cannot quote any Of
it, executing that they had each pur-
chased four drinks of liquor from FL
len Johnson at fifty cents drink. We
understand this woman who has been
an alleged inmate Of the place oper-
ated by Mig Collins for some years,
is reported at the same time to be on
parole from a federal sentence re-
Gently imposed at Great Falls.
Mig Collins, who recently returned
from Great Falls where he served
sixty days for violating the liquor
laws, has been very busy since his
return here, arranging the political
future Of several of his stool pigeons
an hirelings whom he intends to have
run for Office and elect them to fill
the various county offices in this
county, and questionable means Of
raising funds for the campaign has
been rumored, as it is quite generally
known these various men who are
slated by Mig Collins and his mouth
piece are without funds to finance
their own campaign to the extent of
from $125 and $3.50 each for adver-
tising purposes. Hence the reopen
ing of the Chicken ranch.'
S. r. Collins is also out on bonds
from an appeal on his conviction last
spring to serve three years in the pen
itentiary and also to pay $2OOO.O0
! fine for a statutory offense and
which will come up in Supreme Court
in the near future, and it is said that

night was also intended to finance

The funeral occurred on Sunday,
services first being conducted at her
beautiful home at 200 P. M, and

the cortege that followed her to her
final resting place in the Dagmar
cemetery.

Denmark, and where she was joined
in wedlock to Skov Nielsen seventeen
years ago; coming to this county i'm
mediately after her marriage, and

three boys and one girl, the youngest
a boy of eight years. One boy died
in infancy. She is also survived by
one brother and her 86 year old mo-
ther in Denmark.

ted by Rev. Larsen pastor of the

ty wherein she lived.

Com. Orders Close d
Season on Game Birds

The State game and fish commits
sion Monday Of last week ordered a
closed season thruout the state on ma
tive upland birds, including grouse,
prairie chickens, Chinese Pheasants,
blue grouse and Hungarian partrid-
ges.
After closing the season on native
upland birds, the commission announ-
ced that counties would be granted
five days of Chinese pheasants and
Hungarian partridge shooting on re-
quest and furnishing satisfactory
proof that the opening of the season
would not prove detrimental to the
propagation of these birds The sea-
son in such counties would start on
November 23rd, and close Thanksgiv-
ing day.
However, there will be no open
season on any upland birds in north
eastern Montana so there will be no
necessity to make applications for
same, as they are still planting Hun
garian partridge and Chinese pheas-
ants in these counties and there is
more demand for them every year.

HERALD PASSES IT'S
q MILESTONE With
ISSUE OF this WEEK
Oldest Newspaper in Big Mud
dy Valley Receives Larger
Volume of Business

The Plentywood Herald with this
issue, enters upon its twenty-third
wear of continuous publication in
Plentywood. This issue being Vol
ume %, No. 1.
AS the pioneer newspaper OF the
Big Muddy valley, we have kept con-
tinuously at the front, gradually in
creasing our circulation and building
up home newspaper that caters
principally to home folks.
The Herald has watched the vast
changes in Sheridan County and has
kept pace with development. During
the first years of its publication all
work was done by hand. In those
days but two people were required to
do all the work, and there was plen-
ty of time to spare after the paper
had been mailed to the patrons and
the hand type put back in its cases.
Today, owing to the great increase
in business and patronage with mod
ern machinery, electrically operated,
it requires force of five to manage
the plant.
Before we have passed another
milestone we expect to have greatly
enlarged the plant and will add con-
siderable more equipment.
We take this opportunity of thank
ing our thousands of subscribers for
their very generous patronage and
know that such patronage and friend
ship will continue in the future
years.
