ing gasoline we also save money.
Each year they have a Carnival
in Wolf Point. This Carnival
lasts a week. During this Carniy-
al all the stores sell most of their
goods cheaper than the original
price. This way / think people
who live so far in the country
that they have to buy large sup
ply of goods for the winter
should buy it in Wolf Point dur
ing the Carnival than to send to
the mail order house in Mime
apolis or ST. Paul for their winter
supply of groceries. When they
buy their groceries in Wolf Point
they can look. at them so they
know what they will get. While if
they send to st. Paul or Mime
apolis they don't know what they
will get until it reaches them and
it also takes at least two weeks
before we will get it.
| think we should also buy all
or most of our clothing in Wolf
Point because when you buy it IN
Wolf Point you can see the gar
ments, try them. in this way you
know if they fit them or not. If
you send away for your clothing
many times you a send for an
article by the same size as some
article you have tried on in town
that fits you and when you get it
it is too large OF small.
Wolf Point has cleaner stores,
better clerks, better goods and
quality, lower prices and better
prices for your wheat. In this
way you can get more money for
your wheat in Wolf Point then IN
any other town around here.
So if you want to save money,
tires, time and car and get better

One reason why we should
trade in Wolf Point is that the
business men in the local stores
are personally interested in their
customers and try to accommo-
date them.
In patronizing u own town we
also have a market for our farm
produce, such as butter, cream,
poultry and eggs.
We people of the Southside.
really owe it to the business men
of Wolf Point to favor them with
our trade since it was principally
the members of the Commercial
club Of that place, under the
leadership of Mr.. Young, who.
through their combined efforts OBJ
tanned the Wolf Point bridge,
which is such a benefit to all in
a great many ways.
We now save a dollar ferry bill
each time we go to town and thus
have an extra dollar to spend in
our stores.
We should patronize u home
town and help our business e
to prosper and they in turn help
to build up and beautify the town,
as we see by the tourist park and
the fine highways leading to it.
Then it is the people of IL
home town who provide us with
high schools, churches and places
of amusement.
In doing our trading it is much
more convenient to see the assert
ment of goods and try on II
wearing apparel. Thus, we "a
readily see that it is far
satisfactory to all concerned to
do our trading in our w home
town of Wolf Point.

(Some time ago, soon after the
annual Trade Carnival, the com
mittee turned over to The Herald
quite a number of the essays sent
in by students in competition for
the prizes offered by the Carnival
managers. The essays included
those winning prizes and those re-
ceiving honorable mention, and
some others. Those winning priz-

low are a few others quite worthy

Lest We Forget.,..
MOntana's Natural ClOries

Far, far, from the noise of the ciys street,
And the dark tenements, with court yard deep,
Out to the prairie wide,
Where sage-brush grows o n the mountain side
Away from the citys swirl,
Out to the farmer and his toll
To the Gumbo deep, of Montanas soil,
Covered DER with golden wheat,
Confess, how many have come their health to seek?
Where the rain, God measures with a meager hand,
On a thirsty, dry and arid land.
But, of skies o blue, from coast to coast,
The like of which no other state a boast.
When the earth is burnt, and the very ground scorched,
And the crop upon which we built our hopes, amounts to naught.
After labor, dreary and hard, and when all goes dead wrong,
At last in despair, we sell our wheat for a mere song.
That is the time to halt and remember,
That through the cold bleak month of December,
The jobless, perhaps homeless, city mar
Searches through the city streets, as best he can.
Praying that a merciful God, perhaps may stray
A few days of honest work across his way.
For that morning he received a dun,
From the landlord, who, for his rent had come.
The sheriff his family may evict,
Until the very thought has made him sick.
AS we comfortably sit land We have in plenty.
On our homesteads, of three and twenty.
Then for temporal things you have lost, do not grieve,
But, thank a kindly providence, for the blessings, you did receive.
In fall when all vegetation has died, and there's nothing left,
Lest we forget, that we have Montanas blue skies yet
Send your thanks through heecy clouds, mid their clefs.
At least, a kindly fate has left a vault, SO clear and blue,
That straight into the heavens, n can almost see through.
At dawn nj the East, rises a most wonderful sun,
Glorious and crimson she sets in the West, after mans work is done.
Epidemics we have not, even though humble is our lot.
And he counts his riches best, who with good health is blest.
For an atmosphere clear a s crystal free from germs. let's give thanks
And with the dawn of a tomorrow's sun, to him who makes al
things right.
We pray that our prospects for next year crop, may look more bright

M. B. Yuly was a dinner guest
at the Nygaard home on Thursday
Thanksgiving day..
Longview callers in Wolf Point
on Saturday were Mrs. Breum and
Ralph Breum, Mr.. and Mrs. A. P.
Bilyeu, Marshall Winship, Vernon
and Wallace; the Nygaard family
and Miss Carlson.
Sunday callers at the Nygaard
home were Craig Smith, Carl
Fladeland and Mr.. Radi.
The sudden death Of Ray
Gravel was a shock to his Long
view friends. We wish to extend
II sympathy to Mrs. Gravel and
the Smith family.

Winship butcher a baby beef On
Tuesday morning.
School Notes
On Tuesday afternoon Paul Ny
gard and Marshall Winship fixed
the chimney on the school house
and also banked the school house.
Paul Nygaard finished building
o entrance at school. We can
notice how much warmer our
school house is since this en-
trance has been built and also
since our school house has been
banked.
Wallace Winship won a prize in
an arithmetic contest this week.
We have started working on u
Christmas program. All of the
children are busy making Christ
mas presents during recesses. We
are going to make our fireplace
next week.
We had 100 per cent attendance
for last week. Our average at
tendance for the II weeks of
school is SO per cent. :

Reasons why we should trade
in Wolf Point are: 1t makes it
easier for people in the country 10
drive to Wolf Point and do their
shopping then to drive to Scobey
or many of these other towns be-
the roads are graded the
whole way while the road to
Scobey and these other towns are
only trails. These trails have
many deep ruts in them and this
is hard on the tires and cars; it
also takes longer to drive any
distance on roads like this.
You also save gasoline when
you drive to Wolf Point because
the roads are nicer so it does not
take so long. In this way we
save gasoline and time. BY saw

that if there was no water there
would be no life and consequently
there would be no use for air
Several interesting facts were
presented. Both air and water are
essential to the formation OF sol
and likewise to the growth Of
plants. Without plants we would
have no food. Even if we had
food, without water we could not
digest, absorb of transport that
food or get rid of waste materials
Without air the food could not be
used for growth, repair or energy
of the organism. Air is necessary
for wind, rain, transmission of
heat from a solid body, etc. With.
out air there would be no build
ings or machinery for it is essen.
tial in the formation of wood, ex-
traction of metals from their ores
and even in the setting of concrete
and mortar. Electricity is absol-
utely dependent upon water. Even
the dry cell must have some
amount of water present to pro-
duce an electrolyte. All fuels are
associated directly or Indirectly
with water. Even coal and oils
which have resulted from former
plant life needed water in their
formation.
WOLVES 20, BRoCKTON ~
BY Coach Doe
The Wolves played the opening
game of their basketball season
at Brockton last Saturday, the
opening night for the new Brock
ton gym.
Brockton has a team of veterans
this year and is ranked among the
strongest teams in the eastern
half of this district. 1t is quite
likely that they will be among
the 6 teams playing in the final
district tourney at Poplar this
year.
Brockton has a strong defensive
team and two unusually good men
in Anderson and Boyd. They
play a clever passing game and
do not miss many chances from
close in.
The Wolves had a somewhat
makeshift lineup and played
f1ashily at times and showed the
lack of practice badly at other
times. Clark and Burnison show
ed up the best for the Wolves,
and Weeks was given the honor
of having two men assigned to
cover him because of his position
on the all-state last year.
The lineup and box score fol

The Wolves next will be against
Nashua at Wolf Point on Dec. IL.
This game will give the crowd
their first chance to see this
years Wolves in action. 1t is
probable that a number who are
trying for the first string will get
a chance to show what they can
do in this game

Stains and Their Removal, Manu-
facture of Soap, Kinds of Soap,
Hard and Soft Water, Water
Softeners.
Miss Wahl's elementary science
classes summed up the subjects
of air and water in the form of a
debate. Resolved: "That Air is of
More Importance to Us Than
Water" Since the affirmative
scored in one class and the mega
tive in the other we conclude that
both air and water + of the ut

stated: IF there was no air there
would be no life and therefore
there would be no use for water"

AMERICAN
DOPE PARLE.Y
HELD NEED
BY KENNETH CLARK

GENEVA, Sept. 26 tuS).--
Calling Of a Pan-Arnerican opium
conference would be ON all folrs
with American traditions and
principles.
It would furnish, experts
agree, the impetus necessary to
force the world at last to take
some direct, effective. measures
to make the world safe for civil
ization. II could and would lift
the dope problem out Of the
muck Of politics and profits. Ur.
der these it is begged down In the
League. United, the Pan-Ameri-
can countries could achieve that
which individually they can never
realize. They could protect them
selves.
Certain underlying questions
will confront such. conference.
Dope is an international prob.
lem. It arises from over-produc.
tion of opium and over1nanufac-
ture of drugs. 1T is d danger
that imperils every country on the
American continent. but it springs
from sources outside of the
Americas.
/. Two methods have been pro-
posed to limit manufacture One
is by a quota. or rationing system,
the other by q scheme of Stipu.
lated supply.
Under the quota plan, yet in q
11ebulous stage, the total of drugs
required for the worlds medicinal
purposes would be allotted for
manufacture on percentage
basis among the present manufac-
turing countries. It entails. for
nation of an international drug
cartel to establish, assign and ad-
just the quota"
The scheme of stipulated sup
ply, which was forwarded to the
League by the American State De-
partment. Is based on simpler
principles and calls for less COM
plicated machinery. Under it the
adhering countries would notify
in advance, for a determined
period, their requirements of drugs
and would state from which
countries they would purchase
these requirements.
The scheme was sent for COM
ment to all League members. Al
ready 10 governments have ap-
proved it.
1t would be one purpose Of a
Pan-American conference to dis
cuss these plans. adopt one or the
other, or devise new method of
limitation. Whatever was finally
agreed upon could be submitted to
all countries IN the world for ac-
ceptance.
