FAST WORK BY SHERIFF AND
POLICE LOCATE 1T AT
PECULIAR SPOT

Wednesday, after lunch, Count,
Attorney Arlie M. Foor left hi'
nice big Hupp, went up to his
office in Huxsol block and wadet
into the stack of work that usual
ly c%onfronts him. His partner
deputy, Hugh Marion, had been
sick at home and there was dou
BILE duty for Arlie. There was
heaps on his mind besides blond
hair.
Toward evening the attorney
needed his car in a hurry and
tore down the steps, two at a
time, to the regular parking place
at the west side of the block.
She was gone. Clean plumb dis,
appeared. Nothing but choice
Montana ozone in its place.
Cursesi More work for the coun-
ty attorney. The sheriff's office
and the city police were notified
and they sure got busy. Some
thing must be done. For the coun-
ty attorney to lose his trusty
means of transportation was al
most as bad as for a cop to lose
his gat and night stick. Phone
warnings went east and west, in
quiry along the street. A clew
at last-a woman saw the mis-
sing car being driven by a man
she did not recognize, south to-
ward the ferry.
Anderson and Council broke the
speed laws getting to the ferry.
Nix, said the ferryman, no such
car had crossed. Whiz, and they
are off for the other ferry, at
the bridge. Nothing doing there
either. A clean getaway. Plenty
of car owners said: We'll would

"Foor's car" exclaimed John,
"Arlie Foor's car? Why, it's In

as Charlie Gordon says, what a
laugh the town had. No arrests
or hearings SO far. It is believed
that out Of consideration for the
and the prominence OF the
parties involved nothing will be
done. The county attorneys Office
has too much work anyway.

that Arlie's a really was lost

LARSONS WRITE
ABOUT VIENNA
FOOD PRICES AND QUALITY
NO BETTER THAN IN
u. S. A.

A number of friends of DR.. and
Mrs. Larson have had interesting
letters from them written from
Vienna. A. V. Appelgren received
one written on May 9 in which
the Doctor says he likes his work
and is working hard. He says he
will be able to complete the work
sooner than he had expected and
may possibly be back to Chicago
by October Is. This will enable
him to spend a few months in
various hospitals in the United
States before taking up his work
at Fargo.
DR.. Larson does not consider
that there is anything wonderful
about Vienna, except possibly the
castles. He says the food there
is terrible and the coffee worse.
He said: Don't let anyone kid
you about the cheap living in
Europe. Except for fruit, the food
prices are about the same is they
r in the United States" He
sends his regards to everyone in
Wolf Point.
Mrs. ]. R. Burgess is in receipt
OF a letter written by Mrs. Lar
son shortly after reaching Wen
ma. On account of the difficulty in
getting passports, she and the
boys were not able to make the
trip across at the same time as
the Doctor and just recently went
across on the Europa
Mrs. Larson went through sew
eral cathedrals and was much i'm
pressed with their beauty and
magnificience. She said Vienna is
over run with dogs, a statement
which calls to mind some Of Mark
Twain's comments on the subject
in his I%nnocents Abroad. And pos
sibly answers the question: why
is Vienna sausage?"
Mrs. Larson cited an instance
which showed that living may be
cheaper for the Viennese than it
is for Americans in Vienna. When
in a food shop she saw a small
jar OF honey and inquired the
price. 1t was so cents. She de-
cided she didn't want any honey
that day, but the she
thought about it the more she
craved the honey. So she and
the doctor went back to the shop.
young boy was in charge this
time. When he was asked the
price he said 80 cents. The wo-
man at the house where the Lar
sons live suggested that it might
be as well il she accompanied

meet, MISSOULA
MISS HENNUM TELLS ABOUT
INTERSCHOLASTIC CON-
TEST RESULTS
(RY Miss Hennuml


For one who for the first time
is crossing the mountains, it il
almost impossible to speak of any
phase of the trip without using
superlatives. Yet, the most i'm
pressive sight was that of the par
ade of athletes onto the athletic
field on the second day of the
track meet. The setting for the
scene is magnificent. To the
right, from the grandstand, is
the mems gymnasium with the
snow-covered mountains in the
distance. Directly in front is
Mount Sentinel, which furnishes a
splendid free, grandstand for city
youngsters who either can't or
won't pay the admission. To the
left is beautiful Rattlesnake Can
yon with the snow-covered noun
tains in the distance. The process
sion was headed by the Grizzly
Band in their maroon and white
uniforms. Then followed the near
ly 400 athletes in their uniforms
of school colors. 1t was a ~colorful
scene; but when one considers
that here were gathered those
who should be the finest and
cleanest students, representing
their high schools all over the
state, the event gains in signifi-
canoe. One feels that to repre-
sent ones school in an event of
this kind must more than repay
the extra work and perhaps sac
rifice of pleasure needed to quail
ify, and that the Interscholastic
meet invited by the University is

ID PLAY GOLF ON
FAIRVIEW LINKS
HAVE GOOD TIME, WIN THE
MATCH; DELEGATION TO
SCOBEY SUNDAY

Fourteen members Of the golf
club visited the Fairview club
Sunday in response to an invita-
ton. Two more, F. E. Rathert
and Bob White, started but had
serious car trouble before reach
ing Poplar and finally gave up
the trip. The visiting golfers
were very much pleased with the
sporty and we'll kept course they
found at Fairview. They say it
resembles the Wolf Point course
more than any other they have
been on, the principal differences
being that the Fairview course
is longer, a total of 300 yards,
and the green's are somewhat
smaller. They were cordially en-
tertained and had a good time in
spite of a shower late in the af-
ternoon. The Fairview club has
been organized only two years
and u strokers beat them by
quite a margin. Exact figures
could not be obtained. The Fair
view boys will visit Wolf Point
June 1st.
Scobey
A large delegation of the local
club will go to Scobey to play
Sunday. All members are urged
to join the party. Play will be-
gin at one p. N. sharp.

LIONS LISTEN,
LACKLEN TALK
DISTRICT GOVERNOR COMES
TO TWIST TAILS AND
MAKE 'EM ROAR

The regular noon meeting OF the
Lions club Wednesday enjoyed the
special treat in a 80 minute talk
by ]. j.. Lacklen of Big Timber.
Lion Lacklen is district governor
of the 37th district of Lions Inter
national which comprises the state
of Montana
John MacFarlane, son OF Mr..
and Mrs. Neil McFarlan of this
city, upon learning that a Lions
club had been organized in Wolf
Point, did the club a favor of sug-
costing to the district governor
that he come here and address the
new club. 1t was a happy thought
because the club was in need OF
an educational lecture by an older
member. There was good attend
ance and the address on Lionism
was thoroughly enjoyed.
Lion Lacklen briefly sketched
the history Of the three we'll
known luncheon clubs, Rotary,
Kiwanis and Lions International.
The Lions are the youngest club,
but second in numbers. To date
there are 2,165 clubs virtually
all in the United States and Can
ada.
In Montana there are now 81
clubs. Wolf Point was the 18th
organized, Havre and Bozeman
following. The annual district con-
vention will be held at Billings
June 13 and IA. The district gov
ernor told many interesting and
helpful things about the order, its
objects and its plan of work, us
ing his home club at Big Timber
as an example, he described the
excellent effect the Lions club of
81 members has had by way of
bringing about unity and harmony
in the community. Very briefly it
is the idea of the Lions to pro-
mote acquaintance, learn to like
each other and work together for
worthy objects. In brief the fol
which is the slogan Of the
order: I'VE serve"

: JUDGES To Be.
NAMED SOON
AGNES MANN

President Hoover will send to
the Senate, probably in the near
future, two nominations for the
newly created judgeships on the
District of Columbia Court of
Appeals.
While no word has come from
the White House as to whom the
President will choose for these
judicial berths, there has been
a general understanding that he
intended to elevate two justices
of the District Supreme Court to
the Court of Appeals. and the
names of Justices William Hitz
and Jennings Bailey have been
mentioned in this connection.
The friends of Paul Sleman,
G. o. P. leader in Montgomery
county, and local lawyer, have
presented his name to President
Hoover for one of the judgeships,
and several other candidates also
have been brought to White
House attention.
Should two justices of the
District Supreme Court be nomi-
mated for the higher court, this
will create two vacancies on the
former tribunal, which the Presi-
dent is expected to fill without
delay.
There is keen competition in
the local legal world for these
judgeships. District Attorney Leo
A Rover will have strong sup.
port for one Of the nominations,
and his chances for appointment
are believed to be excellent.
There will be no formal an
nouncement of candidates., how
ever, until after President Hoover
makes the nominations for the
Court of Appeals.
