WOLF POINT DRUG
VICTIM OF BOYS
CONFESS TO MANY NIGHT
VISITS AND PETTY
THIEVERY

Late Monday evening Sheriff
John Anderson took into custody
two young breeds, Ivan Beauch-
man and Leonard Moran, each
thirteen years old, and attending
the fourth and fifth grades in the
public schools. The arrest was
made on the suspicion that they
had been robbing the Wolf Point
Drug store. When questioned by
the sheriff they freely confessed
to having made numerous night
visits to the drug store and to
having taken money from the cash
register and merchandise.
Emil Wistrom, proprietor of the
drug store, had found his cash
short on several mornings and fl
nally became convinced that his
place was being Systematically
robbed. He says his cash losses
total about $40. He notified the
sheriff's office and the sheriff, J..
L. Siglias, deputy, and Mr.. Wis
from waited in the rear room af-
ter the store was closed and the
lights out. They had only a short
time to wait until the door of a
shed at the rear was opened
slightly and the beamsSof a flash
light betrayed the presence Of the
officers. The door was slammed
shut and the intruders gone, the
officers feared for good. But in a
very few minutes from the main
store which the officers had now
entered, two boys were seen to
peer in through the front window.
The sheriff went in search of
them and found two boys eating
ice cream in the Norby Sweet
Shop next door to the drugstore.
When asked which one of them
had the flashlight and other lead
ing questions they at once con
fessed their guilt. Tuesday they
were taken into Judge Gordon's
court and the judge held them to
await the action Of district court.

YECG GANG LOOT COGSWELL'S
STORE OF $1,000 in TOBACCO
SECOND ROBBERY IN YEAR
OF 45-YEAR OLD POST
AT OLDTOWN

For the second time within a
year the store of S. T. Cogswell
at Oldtown was robbed sometime
during Monday night. This time
the thieves made it a wholesale
deal and took cigars and cigarets
valued at approximately $1,000. En-
trance was gained through a base
ment window and was evidently
made by a small man or boy.
Steel fence posts had been driven
outside the outside window and
the space allowed by them and the
sash of the inside window was so
small that it must have called
for strenuous efforts by a small
and 1.-the bodied person.
John .Appelgren, who is In
charge of the store during Mr..
COgswell's absence in California,
says that someone was connected
with the robbery who was famil-
lar with the store and the stock.
Full cases of cigarets and large
packages Of cigars were in sew
eral different places in the ware
house at the rear of the store
room. The robbers found every
one Of these packages and took
all the rest of the cigars in the
store except a box and a piece of
another. A truck evidently was
driven into the alley at the rear
cf the store and loaded from the
back door,
The ground Monday night was
still covered with ice and frozen
snow after the long thaw and
left no tracks of any kind.
The sheriffs Office sent out
warnings to police in all direc-
tons and is looking out for clues.
Last summer when Mr.. Cogsweu
was home the store was entered
in the same way and a consider
able quantity Of tobaccos was tax
en-. After that visit iron posts
were placed at the window. Mr..
Cogswell is a jobber of tobaccos
well as other lines, and at
times has quite a stock On hand.
His Is the Oldest store in the com
munity and has been conducted
on the same spot continuously for
over 40 years. Originally it was
IN Indian trading post and Mr..
Cogswell holds an Indian traders
license.

WOLF TEAMS WIN
TWO FROM POPLAR
SACO BOYS TEAM DROP GAME
BY 40-15 SCORE TO WOLVES
HERE LAST FRIDAY

Poplar lost a double-header to
Wolf Point on the latter's bask.
etball floor Tuesday evening. In
the main event Poplar high lost
to Wolf Point 81 to IA, notwith-
standing that the game was fast
and a tough contest throughout.
In the preliminaries the high
school second string lost to Wolf
Points seconds by "a to 6.
The main event brought the
spectators some big thrills, espec-
tally during the first half. A much
stiffer game than was expected
was apparent within a few min
utes.
Wolf Point opened the scoring
and reached 6 before Poplar net
ted 2. The quarter ended 80. In
the second Poplar put in some
fine strokes, netting 4 baskets in
a row to 1 for the Wolves. The
score was tied 1910. 1t hung here
for a few minutes with both fore
es striving their utmost, but be-
fore the half ended Wolf Point
got organized and doubled their
score, holding Poplar to 8 points.
This left it at 20 to IS.
In the last half Poplar was un-
able to make it's game work at
all, but succeeded in breaking up
play after play by the fast Wolf
Point aggregation. Despite this,
the Wolves slipped them in with
telling regularity, often scoring
nearly from the center Of the
floor. The quarter ended 30-13 and
the game at 37-14.
Poplar's team is good. Wolf
Points is extra good. 1t is the
opinion of fans that the locals
will be extra good another year.
In the preliminaries Poplar was
handicapped to a great extent by
the greater size of the Wolf Point
players. For the most part their
players were over the heads of
the hitler fellows from this city,
who nevertheless maintained great
speed and did some excellent
work. The half ended 16 to 2, and

THOUSANDS HEAR McKELVIE'S
EXPLANATION OF FARM BOARD
WHEAT MEMBER OF HOOVER'S
NEW MARKETING BODY
SPEAKS OVER RADIO

An audience of 400 farmers and
grain dealers heard Sam. r. Nc
Kelvie of the Federal Farm board
discuss grain marketing at Willis
ton, February 7, and an additional
audience estimated at 5000 heard
the same speech over KICK. Mr..
McKelvie discussed the plans OF
the Farm board at considerable
length and at the close answered
many questions brought up by
those present. A part of the
speech given follow as follows:
How To Cooperate
"The subject uppermost in the
minds of farmers is how they may
take advantage of the agricultural
marketing act. The first step is
to join a cooperative that deals
in a specific commodity such as
grain. Membership in the local ell
evator, or some local marketing
unit is sufficient. A marketing
agreement with some larger unit
such as a pool Or terminal sales
agency also fills the requirement.
Membership in a general farm or
%ganization is not necessary.
The local cooperative unit is the
most important in any large scale
cooperative undertaking. This unit
is democratic in principle and
gives farmers an opportunity to
manage their affairs at home. I'm
less this unit functions fully and
in complete harmony with a CEN
trail sales agency for all similar
units large scale cooperative
marketing cannot be successfully
carried out.
Requirements
There are over 1000 farmers
elevators in this country. Largely,
they are cooperative and meet the
requirements of the ~Capper-Vol-
stead act; that is, they are farm
er owned and farmer controlled,
a not more than $50 on their
capital stock and allow patronage
dividends, or permit but n vote
per member, ana handle not more
than 500 II the grain Of non
members. These in addition 10
pools and other commodity sales
agencies form the nucleus upon
which the Farmers National

FIRE PREVENTION WEEK

Tomorrow ushers in National Fire Pre-
vention Week. which usually embraces
cleanup campaign as one of the best
means of fire prevention.
Despite nationwide effort to reduce
fire losses, they show tendency to in
crease. In 1900 the nations fire loss was
approximately 6l,000000. By 1926 it
had increased over 250 per cent, the loss in
that year amounting to S560,000.0O0.
In more recent years there was tend
ency to keep under this high peak, but
the 1929 figures show total loss of
S473,0 100000, which was S9,000,000 great
er than the loss of the preceding year.
Thus far in 1880 the reported monthly
losses have been on the average, 7 per
cent higher than those of last year.
When one stops to realize that much
of this enormous loss is due to careless
ness and negligence, it represents a
heavy penalty.
Accumulation of trash and rubbish is
cited by fire department authorities as
first lieutenant to the fire menace. They
therefore advocate a cleanup in con-
junction with the campaign to emphasize
the need of fire prevention.
Locally there is plenty of room for
clean up. Vacant lots, alleys, and pri-
vate homes have been allowed to accumu
late rubbish during the summer. Many
places in the city display most insight
ly appearance, presenting not only an
undesirable aspect to the community, but
stamping those responsible for the con-
dition as shiftless and untidy.
The weather is now cool enough to
make working outside enjoyable. If Ell
Centro citizens wish to cooperate in Ma
tional Fire Prevention Week, they will
become busy with the shovel, rake, hoe
and the trash box.
