MRS. SOUTHARD
SEEN IN STATE
WIRES HOT IN EFFORTS TO EFF.
Feet ARREST OF IDA
HO ESCAPE

LYDIA Southland, one of the most
noted women convicts in the Unit
ed states may be in hiding some
where in Montana Officers have
been charged to keep a sharp look
out for a woman dressed in kha-
XII trousers and high buttoned
shoes, travelling in In old model
Ford coupe. The sheriff's office
and The Herald received wires.
A story from Hysham, Mont, on
the Yellowstone trail, says:
Belief that LYDIA Southland, muir
deress who escaped from the Ida
ho prison May 4, passed through
Montana toward the east, is ex-
pressd by c. l.. Harris, county at
torney.
Harris says he passed awoman
repairing her a on the Yellow
stone trail about 10 miles west of
here about 1920 O'Clock yester-
day morning. He observed her
rather carefully and, when he reach
ed home found that she answered
closely the description on a bulle-
tin issued by the Idaho authorit-
les"
Another report is that she is be-
lieved to have been seen east of
Terry about 100 miles south of
Wolf Point.
Mrs. Southland was convicted of
poisoning one of her several hus-
bands. Some of the others died in
mysterious ways. Her last hus-
hand, still alive, is believed to have
aided her in escaping.

THIS IS The HEARLD'S
SPECIAL ADV'MT ISSUE

This issue of The Herald brist-
les with advertising-Dollar Day
ads, regular ads, foreign" ads. The
percentage of news matter is far
less than usual. There is as much
news as you usually find in a
country weekly of this class at
that.
The advertising is good news of
itself because much of it tells of
prices deeply cut to make Dollar
Day that means a large and gen
uine savings to those WHO sHop in
The Herald and then in Wolf
Point.

FINDS COLLIE DOG BY
ADVERTISING IN WESTERN NEWS

For the past two weeks Mr.. James
Blackboard has had an advertisement in
this paper seeking to find a priced
Scotch collie dog that had disappeared
from his home. Last Saturday this
paper received a remittance for sub
scription from Mr.. Martin Peterson of
Warland and in the letter Mr.. Peter
son said he had noticed the advertise
ment in the paper about the lost or
strayed dog, that he believed he had
him and asked us to notify the owner.
That was done. the Blackfords drove
out to the Peterson ranch and the lost
Laddie was found. All by a little ad
in the Western News.
The dog was a high priced pure
bred collie and Mr.. Blackford did not
want to lose him. And the dog hadn't
strayed from home. He had been stolen
Inquiry developed the fact that a
man going through the country with a
car had picked up the dog AT Warland
he started to cross the river on the
ferry, but for some reason the dog
made quite rumpus at that time
Finally the ferryman said, you had
better leave that dog alone. | believe
he belongs to SO and So" Whereupon
the traveller said he would leave the
dog there and pick him up when he
returned. When he got back the doe
was gone. He made his way down
the road about two miles toward Libby
when he stopped at the Peterson ranch
and had remained there.

do not send You balyhoo' sales circulars? Why Won
seldom hear from us over the radio? in short why
we use the newspapers almost exclusively for our
store news?
"The reason is simple Newspaper advertising is
the most economical way for us to greatest
number of prospects for merchandise :. We
have found that by concentrating expenditure in
the newspapers can bring store to the
attention of the most people at the least cost and
often every day. To use the other mediums to any
great extent would be for largely duplication
and it is because Of this and other of efficiency
methods of reducing operating costs that not

Crime Is Organized
IRON Investigations by the National Crime Com
mission, it has been disclosed that highly organ
lied system of "fences," receivers and disposers
of stolen goods called handle than $500 0OO
900 worth of loot each year.
/. Newton D. Baker, former Secretary of War, de-
cares that the lone burglar is rarity, and that
well organized gangs plying their theving trade
along efficient business lines.
In order to do this they must have definite outlets
for the property stolen If these could be eliminated
Mr.. Baker believes that the total thefts would be
largely reduced While police and other officers of the
law are aware of this condition. and generally do what
they can to break up these fences there is need for
greater cooperation the part of the public in keep
lookout for places of this character and promptly
reporting them to the authorities.
Losses suffered by the public from thefts, burg
larry and robbery almost equal the destruction by fire.
If these losses to be essened there must be in
creased vigilance the part of all citizens and a
greater determination to aid in putting criminal gangs
out of business.
Shifting The Gears
Usually the fellow who drives fastest isn't going
anywhere in particular.
Tolerant people concede the right Of others to
make fools of themselves.
Two Brooklyn men traded wives and each
thinks the other is a swindler.
Horses used to fear automobiles; now they shy at
the strange sight of another horse.
War trophies go begging for lack of parking
space. Practical folks prefer live fvver to a dead
cannon.

What Others Think
Who Pays?
Omaha World-Her

TOW the gods must have laughed back there in
n 1919 when half hysterical allies fever-fushed
with victory" were parading hther and yon,
gestcuating above "peace" tables and shouting from
the housetops of the world that Germany must pay"
Germany" they cried, started this and now
Germany must pay-pay to the uttermost dollar!"
They babes crying for the moon, those states
men, Spoiled children, pulled up by what they
stupidity took for triumph. They had, they thought
won Che war!
They and all the world know better today. No
body can win a war except War War whips them all.
Wars paid for, all right, but not by nation
paying another nation. All the nations pay War.
The nations today paying God knows how long
they will continue to pay. The first instalment
was paid in blood. And now we are paying in gold.
amount the bill will finally to in disease and dis
illusionment and despair knows.
But Germany isn't paying any than those
who crushed" Germany Like Samson in showing
the pillars out from under their enemy, they crushed
themselves. The world went down in heap in those
four mad years and when the dust and smoke had
been waited at last away nobody top. They
were all down there together, gasping for breath,
bleeding from wounds that will not heal in this gener
alton. What good come out of thing so rotten
and evil and hopeless war? What victory" can
emerge from four years of universal defeat?
Is it possible that all this happen again? Win
men again tramp singing down the street? Will the
nations again, day, strike up the bands? Will
men throw flame again? And, when they all dead
or exhausted when the gas clouds again have lifted,
will they talk of making somebody pay?

START FOURTH BUILDING
FOR 1888 WORLDS FAIR

Chicago-Twenty-three months be-
fore the formal opening of Chicago's
1888 World Fair-a Century of Pro-
gress-work has been started on the
fourth exposition building-the Hall
of Science.
Into the sandy-made-land that
lines Lake Michigan, a piledriver is
ramming the first of the 1875 piles
on which will be reared the unique
structure designed by Paul PHILIPPE
Cret, the Philadelphia architect.
The Hall of Sciencewill be u-shap-
ed, approximately 700 by 400 feet,
two stories and a mezzanine in
height. Surrounded by the open face
of the will be rostrum capable of
accommodating several thousand per-
sons. Distinguishing the north fac
ade will be a semicircular grouping
of twelve tall pylons.
The structure will rise from color
ed, concrete terraces and will be de-
corated in white and gray, with a
trimming of red and gold. At night
the Hall of Science will be illuminated
by indirect and fluctuating colored
flood lights.
This building is the first of a
group that will straddle Left Erik
sen drive, Chicago's famous water
front boulevard. Another highway
has been constructed by the EXPOSE
ton directly west of it to accommo-
date the constant stream of motorists.
