Honor and Responsibility.

Quite an honor was conferred upon
the high school, the city Of Libby, and
Lincoln county during Christmas vaca-
tion when Mr.. Wood was elected presi-
dent of the NJ E. A. at Helena.
1t is usually the custom when stu
dents return from trip to give re-
port on what they have done and SO
Mr.. Wood was called upon to give a
speech. The substance of his talk was
that with new honors come new and
more responsibilities and now, since
we are in the limelight, we should do
our best to show other people what
we are capable of doing and do it.
We should prove ourselves worthy
of the honor by starting the New
Year out right. Next week the semes-
ter tests will be given. Let's see if the
Honor Roll can be increased and con-
tinue increasing during the coming
year.

viii Try To Plow
Out Troy-Libby Road

While in Libby Monday County
Commissioner George J. Monio visited
the highway construction camp at the
switchback. While there he promised
Superintendent johnson that he would
attempt to pillow out the road from
Troy to the, construction camu so
that a number Of trucks could be
brought in from the west.
Mr.. Monio has the highway plowed
out from the Idaho line to Troy and
from Troy to the Sanders county line.
as well as some of the other principal
roads OF that district. He now plans
to attempt to plow out the road to
the construction camp from the west,
but realizes that it may be impos-
sible to do that because of the narrow
ness Of the road in places. II it is
possible to crowd the tractor and
pillow through, it will be done. II the
pillow reaches the camp, Commissioner
Brink has made arrangements to have
1t come on west to where. he has
plowed out the road to Libby.

BARROWS ARE MOST PROFIT
ABLE

Hog feeders will get better gains
from feeding baTrows than from
feeding sows says the U. S. Depart
ment Of Agriculture in announcing
conclusions from a study of the in
fuence of sex of swine on feed-lot
returns. Over a period of 8 years
the Bureau of Animal Industry an
alyzed the feed-lot records of 1888
hogs (3,01S barrows and 2,635 sows).
The barrows outgained the sows by
5.43 per cent. The tests included
hogs fed in practically all parts of
the country, under various climatic
conditions and durngi nearly every
month of the year. Specialists stud
led most systems of management, in
cluding dry-lot feeding, and pasture
supplemented by limited rations. In
some of the tests limited ration of
barley was fed, followed by a full
feeding of corn; in others this ra-
ton was reversed. Alfalfa, mixed
clovers, and temporary pastures
such as rye, oats, wheat, cowpeas,
and soybeans, were used to carry the
hogs. Some Of the hogs were full
fed from weaving to a weight of
about 200 pounds; others were start
ed on full feed at weights as high
as $50 pounds, and carried along to
500 pounds or more. Practically all
known hog feeds, including peanuts
and soybeans, were fed. The result
ing carcasses graded in firmness all
the way from oily to hard.

Try to Forget

An article in the Scientific Month
ly announces to the world a new
memory aid which the author, at
least, has found effective. Having
failed by several other memory
methods to retain the name Of a
certain place which he often passed
through he finally took good look
at it, and then tried to forget it. Try
ing to forget it fastened it indelibly
in his memory, and the same trick
was used successfully onsubsequent
occasions.
This scheme may be new to sci
ence but it is old to practical peo-
pie. Every mother knows that. a
child is most inclined to do a thing
after being told not to do it, and
farmers are familiar with those
COWS that can best be kept out of a
field by turning them in and letting
them Jump out. There are animals
that can best be driven in one direc-
tion by pretending you want them to
go in the other-and some OF them
are fiappers. We are all funny AMI
mails in one way or another.-The

PAINT AND SANITATION
Dorothy ]. Miller

When decorators gave mods of ap-
proval to the lavish use of color,
they not only made the average
home a more attractive place to live
in, but a far more healthful spot as
well. This is chiefly because the
vogue for color, which ranges from
the tiniest footstool to the walls
and ceilings, calls for paint, and
wherever there are painted surfaces,
there is sure to be cleanliness. It
goes without saying that a freshly
painted surface is sanitary, but more
important than this is the fact that
can easily be kept that way.
mo home can be considered sani-
tary unless the air is fairly Clean"
said Mrs. Ellen H. Richards, instruc-
tor in sanitary chemistry for the
women's laboratory of the Massa-
chusetts Institute of Technology, in
explaining the meaning of sanitation
in the home to group of students
some fifty years ago. Therefore, the
air in a room in which a feather
duster and broom have been applied
is certain to be dust laden, for some
time after these dry cleaning meth
ods have been followed. The dust
through the room for
many minutes before settling down
again.
On the other hand, furniture that
is finished with paint, enamel, lac
quer, or varnish can be wiped over
with a damp cloth so that any dust
and its attendant bacteria is COM
pletely removed instead of blown
in the room. All this was
proved by actual experiment con-
Quoted in Professor Richards class.
By placing a Petri dish in a room in
which dry busting took place and
another in a room where a damp
cloth was employed in the cleaning,
it was discovered, after the dishes
had been allowed to stand overnight,
how the bacteria had developed in
The dish that had come from the
Milford chronicle., 1930-04-25

dry-cleaned room. A Petri dish, in
cidentally, is a shallow loosely COW
cred container used in making cul-
lures of microbes.
At the time these experiments took
place, elaborately carved furniture
was the rule, and the curves and
creVices were difficult to clean with
out the aid of feather duster. But
now that simple designs and beau
tlful colors have replaced ponderOus
ornamentation and heavy dignity,
there is no excuse for an unsanitary
house.
In kitchens or bathrooms, where
the need for perfect sanitation is OBJ
vious, enameled woodwork supplies
the answer. Well enameled surfaces
will withstand grease, steam, and
frequent cleansings, neither their
sanitary qualities nor coloring be-
inb impaired
Further sanitation is assured in
both these rooms by washing the
walls two or three times a year.
Glossy finished walls, such as are
usually found in kitchen or bath
room, may be kept shining and
bright by the use of the following
equipment: water, soap, glue,
sponge, and piece of soft chamois.
The soap, which should be non-alka-
line, is first shaved down and dis
solved in quart of boiling water.
Then, two ounces of granulated glue
are dissolved in a little more than
a quart of boiling water. These two
mixtures are combined and allowed
to stand so that they form a jelly,
which is applied to the wall like
soap. Washing should begin at the
bottom, the work progressing up
wards. The mixture is finally wiped
off with a piece of chamois. Good
cleaning preparations for woodwork
and walls may also be bought at
places where paint materials are OBJ
tanned. I
In addition to the sanitary value
Of painted surfaces, the home owner

DELAWARE'S GOVERNOR is
AFTER GASOLINE PRICE
R00STERS

Governor Buck, of Delaware,
has asked Attorney General
Satterthwaite, for indictments
against about forty companies
selling gasoline in the State of
Delaware, for conspiring to
stif1e competition in the sale of
gasoline, by means of main
tanning a fixed price. The ac-
ton is expected to be present
ed to the November Court,
when the information will be
presented to the Grand Jury.
The purpose of the action, it
was explained, is to bring down
the price of gasoline in Della
ware, so that it will be on the
same basis as in New Jersey,
Pennsylvania and Maryland,
the contention being made that
Delewaraans are required to
pay more than is charged in
the neighboring States.
AS a result of the price in
Delaware, it is claimed that
Delawareans are paying out
about $1,000,000 more g. year
than they should. In Maryland
gasoline sells for 18 cents,
which includes a four cent tax.
In Delaware, gasoline sells for
zoe, with a three cent tax. This
means that Delawareans are
paying three cents more per
gallon in Delaware than in
Maryland.

Friends School surprised Noting

line. Here the Academy boys held
and received the ball after Friends
School failed to make a first down.
In the second quarter, Buck, of Not
tingham, ran IS yards for the first
touchdown of the game. He also
added the extra point. In the second
half Nottingham scored seven more
points through the splendid running
ability of Buck. Numerous penal
ties resulted in Nottingham losing
much valuable ground and cost them
another touchdown.
Buck, by his splendid open field
running and ability to gain the extra
point after touchdowns, was the out

True Picture OF Devils Island
In "COndemned''

People who see "Condemmnedi ="
the new Ronald Colman starring picture
which Samuel Goldwyn brings to the
Rising Sun Theatre on Saturday Nov. 8,
can have no doubt as to the literal truth
of the scenes and incidents displayed on
the screen. This picture of life among
the convicted sentenced to terms in the
famous French penal colony of Devil S
Island off the coast of South America
has been authenticated in every way
known to man during production.
Ronald Colman's role, that of the
dashing. debonair young thief who falls
in love with the warden's mistreated
wife. is taken from life. This character
formed the central figure of Mrs. Blair
Niles book, CONDEMNED to Devils
Island" from which Condemned
was adapted. The original of This
character is living now in his cell on
Devil S Island, and Mrs. Niles has had
letters from him twice since her six
months visit of inspection two years
ago, the first ever allowed by the French
government to any writer.
