which was caused by a kidney
disorder that poisoned my

I tried every medicine recon-

NIX WANTED AT
ARKANSAS Pen
FINGER PRINTS IDENTIFY ES-
CAPPED LITER; LIVED
AT MED. LAKE

Roy Nix, who was taken off a
freight and arrested at Brockton
the evening of November %, proves
to be Raymond Cole, a much wan
ted prisoner who escaped in 1927
from the Arkansas penitentiary
where he had been six years. He
was serving a term for first degree
murder. In the light of develop
ments, Deputy Monroe, who had
a desperate struggle with mix"
in the darkness, got a lucky break
to take his mar an d get out whole
himself.
Mix was arrested for holding
up or hi-jacking a joint in Wolf
Point. We had a gun and was
crazy drunk and made them dance
and dig. Luck was with him, and
he caught a moving through freight.
But the train stopped for water at
Brockton and Monroe got the tip
at Poplar and reached Brockton
in time to search the train. mix"
has been living at Medicine Lake
for several years and has a wife
and a two year old daughter.
Sheriff Lowe communicated with
the authorities at Little Rock and
identified his charge to a certainty.
Officers are expected from there
tonight. Cole, alias Nix, is a well
built man of 80, 5 feet six, fair skin,
blue eyes and dark brown hair.
When interviewed at the county
Jail by a reporter he indicated he
was ready to go back to Arkansas
rather than stand trial on the hi
lacking charge. He was not in
clined to talk freely and what he
said was conflicting in some par
t~iculars. He is of the sort that
is rather we'll pleased with himself
and seemingly a bit proud of his
record.

trial in Blaine and Hill counties
first. They were convicted in
Blaine county of burglarizing the
J.. C. Penney store at Harlem, and
were sentenced by Judge G. B. Ell
well to serve Is years each in the
state penitentiary. 1t was wearing

NTER-C0MMUNITY CHRISTMAS
FESTIVITIES PLAN, SUCCESS
NEIGHBORING TOWNS GIVE
FINE PROGRAMS; WOLF
POINT ON 23RD

The community Christmas tree
in the middle of Wolf Points
principal business street has be-
come a sort of Yuletide center for
this corner of the state with sew
eral surrounding places accepting
the invitation of Westland radio
station KICK to broadcast Christ
mas programs. These are put on
the air at the station studio and
a radio at the tree makes them
heard for a block or o around.
The tree and the platform have
been splendidly decorated by com
mittees from the Legion Auxiliary
and the Lions club. Nearly a truck
load of small trees have been
planted" all around the edge of
the platform. Festoons of colored
decorations are looped among the
many colored lights.
Two fine programs, each lasting
an hour and a half or more, have
been put on the air. Wednesday
afternoon Plentywood gave the
first one, beginning at 4:30. Thurs
day Medicine Lake had the air, be-
ginning at the same time. Excel
lent talent and careful preparation
made the numbers greatly enjoy
ed, as shown by many responsive
messages received at the station.
Tonight Scobey will give a pro-
gram at the same hour.
Monday night Culbertson's pro-
gram will be the attraction and
Thursday will be Wolf Points
turn. There will probably be no
others.

HERALD TRIES
SOMETHING new
in COLOR PRINT

Here is our 1881 Christmas is
sue. Not so big in point of pages
as gotten out in former years but
well patronized by the merchants
of the city-a response thoroughly
appreciated.
Some 400 extra copies will go
out to families in the border-land
of our field as a Christmas court
esy.
Shop foreman Harry Inman did
something with the front and back
pages that had eve been at
tempted before in this shop. That
was to do two-color register work
ON the Campbell, two-revolution
press. How well he and his assist
ant, George Hagen, got away with
it must be left to our critics.
OF course a bit more Of 1881
tough luck had to drop in at the
busiest part of the week when a
piece of picture plate lifted, fell
on a form and smashed and delay
ed things. 1t all goes in the days
work.

SHOP WINDOWS GAY
WITH CHRISTMAS CHEER

! Never have the store windows
in Wolf Point been more attract
lively decorated than they are this
year. There are inviting displays OF
Christmas goods, gaily decorated
and lighted Christmas trees, that
call to the attention of the passer-

despite the balmy air and sun
shine.
The big Christmas tree on Main
street, gaily decorated with lights

and rising above a miniature for
est of ev~ergreens, is a cheerful
embodiment of Christmas spirit
This tree is a cooperative enter
prise, sponsored by the Lions club,
the city and the Montana-Dakota
Power company. The Legion Auxi-
liary decorated it. A radio broad
casts the afternoon Christmas
programs and music in the even
ing, so that people on the street
may enjoy them.
AS one passes through the res
idence streets on an evening 1t
can be noticed that many OF the
homes have Christmas wreaths
and Christmas candles radiating
cheer.

MONTANANS' MANAGER SPREADS
PHILOSOPHY OF SOUND SENSE
GUY EMORY GIVES INSPIRING
TALK ON LIVE TOPICS
OF THE HOUR

Guy G. Emory, Billings, secretary
and manager of Montanans, Incor-
porated, was in Wolf Point We'd
nesday and spoke at the court
house Wednesday evening. The
courtroom was well filled with an
ap~preciative audience. Mr.. Emory
is on a good will tour through
northern Montana, explaining the
work of Montanans Incorporated,
and selling Montana to Montanans.
Mr.. Emory said he had lived in
Kansas, Utah, California and Mon
tana, and said he considered that
Montana was as good as California
and had many things that Califor-
mia has not. What many Montanans
lack, however, is appreciation of
their own state, and the citizens
need to be Montana-conscious if
they are to sell their scenery, pure
air and wide open spaces to the
rest of the world.
Sell Products at Home
Montana must prosper as a whole
not s~ectionally. No part of Mon
tana can be hurt without all of
Montana being hurt. Similarly ev-

Kohl Children Gassed
By Light Plant Fumes

The three children of Mr.. and
Mrs. Louis Kohl had a narrow es-
cane from asphyxiation last week
when they were made sick and ov-
by fumes from the light
pIant generator. When the child
rem were first taken violently Ill
shortly after supper time it was
thought that their condition was
caused by something they had eat
en-. Mr.. and Mrs. Kohl brought
them to town as quickly as possible
and they remained at the Warm
brod home the following day, re-
covering rapidly. Upon being TAX
en- back home they became sick
shortly after the home light plant
wa started to generate.
Mr.. Kohl investigated and found
that a mouse had gnawed a hole
into a long box used to carry OIL
the exhaust from the generator,
and the gas was seeping out into
the house. It is fortunate that the
cause of the childrens illness was
discovered in time to prevent any
serious results. 1t might easily
have happened that the whole fam
lily were overcome to such an ex-
tent that they could not escape.
Owners of light plants should
be very careful to e that there
is no chance for the exhaust to es-
cane within the house. There is
little odor or color to the gas, and
it might easily poison the air be-
fore it could be detected.
