male friend who has just been
married be addressed to him
personally or to ''Mr. and Mrs"
the writer having never met

Your letter Of congratulation
should be addressed only to
"Mr." However, after the main
part of your letter, which Of
course will be taken up with
your congratulations and offer

sentence or two to '"The Mrs"
It is customary, for instance,
to write something Of this ma

for happiness always. I ex-
pect to be asked to be one of
the seasoned old guests at your
fiftieth wedding anniversary!
And do let me know your wife
soon, for I have very many en-
thuSiastic things to tell her of

not add to her enthusiasm for
you! All friendlieSt wishes to

Mrs H. M, Gompf, coroner, has re-
eeived more information about the old
man who was found dead near the
railroad track last week between two
and three miles this side of Rondo,
by name Robt D. Cummings.
The old man had evidently either
fallen from or been thrown from a
moving train and had struck the side
Of his head on a rock, one side Of the
head being crushed. He had evidently
made his way a short distance to the
river, near which the body was found.
One shoe was off and prints Of the
sock could be seen in the soft ground.
A daughter, Mrs. Arthur Ditlefsen,
of Seattle, writes that Cummings had
started for Minot, N. D., with only a
small sum of money. He had been
subpoened to appear in court in Minot
on November 80, where he had sis
ter, Mrs. Alma Scott In the dead
mans pockets were found a much

watch and az cents. He was buried here

Our
Washington
Letter
BY THE NATIONAL EDITORIAL
ASSOCIATION
Especial to the Western News)

WASHINGTON, November 18.-Con-
siderations of political nature will
force President Hoover to exercise
more than ordinary care in drafting his
annual message to Congress NuIneri-
cal superiority at this time indicates
that the Democrats will control the
House Of Representatives Republican
majority in the Senate exists solely
on paper, which precludes Mr. Hoover
making this body prop for his Leg
islative plans. A chief executive with
out a dependable working force in the
parliamentary body is obviously puz-
zled as to tactics A stream of party
workers have been calling at the White
House with suggestions. The message
will not be whipped into shape until
a few hours before Congress convenes.

Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock
Libby plays Big Sandy at the local
field in the Class B state semi-finals.
The game promises to be one virtually
packed with thrills.
Big Sandy has a powerful outfit this
year They have defeated all of their
rivals in Class B. Last Armistice Day
they trounced Fort Benton by an i'm
pressive score. The Big Sandy out
fit are good in every department of
the game but they usually take the
air" for their touchdowns. They are
also noted for their ability to come
through with defeat staring them in
the face, winning two games in the
final minutes. w. Larson, plunging full
back of the team, last year was given
honorable mention on the All-State
team. Marty, flashy halfback, is triple
threat man. He has been on the pass
ing end of all of Big Sandy's touch
downs. Big Sandy is coached by F. E.
(4Rip") Wilson, former All Conference
center and teammate of Coach Vogt.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. N%N&VXNNNyNXN
SURPRISED AT AMOUNT
OF TAXES BEING PAID

1T is surprise to all of us the way
taxes are coming in this year." said
County Treasurer Klenck and his dep
uty, M. D. Rowland, when questioned
at the court house Tuesday. $50 far
none of the big taxpayers have remit
ted but the smaller taxpayers are walk
ing right up and putting their tax
money on the counter. Another thing
we have noticed is that so many are
paying their taxes in full this year
even more SO than heretofore. Tax
collections will average about $1,000 a
day, and we consider that very good
1t is rather difficult to explain. Times
are supposed to be hard and they I'M
doubtedly are but so far that condi-
ton has not been reflected in tax
payments"

This Is Book
Week, Says Miss
Ratekin, Librarian
Calls Attention to Value of Good
Reading for Children-Has
Interesting Exhibit.

International friendship through chill
dren's reading was the theme OF an
article written seven years ago by
Clara w. Hunt, prominent librarian
The League of Nations Non-Partisan
Association reprinted it and since then
the idea has been kept alive by oc-
casional exhibits in libraries and
schools.
This year, with international news
headlined in nearly every newspaper,
it is particularly appropriate that
around the world in books" be the
spirit Of this National Book Week.
The local library has been fortunate
enough to secure for exhibit use, some
interesting prints of illustrations from
recent children's books. One of these
illustrations is an original. These, to-
gether with an interesting display OF
children's books that are especially
recommended for children from pre-
school to high school age, will be shown
at the library this week. Miss Inez
Ratekin, librarian, urges parents to
come in and seee the exhibits arranged
and talk over the various types Of
books that their children bring home
to read. Good reading is very impor-
tant and children whose parents have
an interest in their reading will be en-
couraged to develop a taste for the
better type of book
"There is no frigate like book
To take us far away;
There is no charger like page Of
prancing posey.
Such traverse may the poorest take
Without Cypress or toll;
How fragile is the chariot
That bears the human SOUL

Reports Much
Optimism ID
Eastern Area
E. N. Alley Says Business
Interest Are Much
Encouraged.
BIG INCREASE IN
ZONOLITE DEMAND

IN talking with prominent business
men Of Chicago and other midwest
ern cities, found them confident that
business conditions are on the upgrade
and that they will steadily improve
until they are back to normal" said
f. N. Alley, president Of The Zonolite
company, on his return from the east
last Saturday evening. Mr.. Alley went
to Joliet, ILL.,, to inspect the new plant
recently built there by his company
and to confer with Zonolite officials in
that district
THE upward trend in the price Of
wheat and silver has had a most en-
couraging effect on all that section,
continued Mr. Alley. 1T means millions
of dollars in the pockets of the buying
public and that realization has brought
much encouragement to the business
interests of the nation. While this up
ward price trend has been fluctuating
more or less, that is only to be ex-
pected. The general belief is that the
final result will be a noticeable i'm
provement in the price Of most all farm
products with also a better price for
silver and other metals Big business
interests Of that section believe the
bottom Of the depression has been def
nitely reached and that the future is
most promising"
Zon0lite Business Encouraging.
Il found the new plant at Joliet OPP
Grating in fine shape" said Mr.. Alley.
1T is very efficient plant and is
turning out a superior product And
it is of course gratifying to us to see
the steadily increasing demand for
Zonolite and the new interest that is
being taken in it. The outlook is very
encouraging We are beginning the
construction of a calcining plant at
Brooklyn, NJ X, of the same general
character as the one at Joliet. With
the new plant in operation Zonolite
will enjoy advantages it does not now
have in the eastern seaboard area
That means an expanding market for
our products in that district. While |
was in Chicago | met the president Of
the Canadian company that is market
ing Zonolite products in the Dominion.
