JAMES HELMER OLD
WESTERN PIONEER
dies AT POPLAR

James Helmer, ~81-year-old pioneer
known to old timers in a dozen North
western states and in Western Canada.
died at his home in Poplar Thurs
day night. The end came at 11:45
while he was sunk in a merciful coma
which followed a day of great pain.
Mr.. Helmer had been in poor health
for about a year and a half past and
in January Of this year suffered a
mild stroke which confined him to his
bed for his remaining days. He was
known to be in a very weak condition
and Thursday was a victim of terrific
pain for some hours. Relief came in
the form of a coma from which he did
not awake.
Mr.. Helmer's life was one Of the
most picturesque of which has record
or can remember. There is no doubt

Word was received on Saturday by
Mrs. w. M. Stratton of the death of
Mrs. Willis Peterson of Guthrie,
Minnesota.
Mr.. and Mrs. Peterson formerly
lived six miles North of Redstone on
their farm. In the year Of 1920 they
moved to Guthrie where their only
daughter resided. They have lived at
that place since and own a farm and
a town home. Mrs. Peterson has been
quite well until a few months ago.
An operation was finally deemed nee
essary for gall stones and about three
weeks ago she underwent same but
never seemed herself afterwards. She
passed away at 9:40 Pm. March 28th.
The remains were laid to rest at Gu
thrie. She leaves to mourn her pass
ing her daughter Nellie, her husband
and two sisters as well as a host
of friends. Everyone who knew Mrs.
Peterson loved her for her kind heart
and wish to send their sympathy to
the bereaved family. Altho we know
her loved ines will be lost without her
we are glad to remind them that there
will be a day Of reunion in Heaven.

FORD MOTOR COM
.PANY OFFERS new
SERVICE CAR OWNER

Dealers, to retain Model A and "A
service work in their shop, must es-
tablish contact with the owner at
the time the new car is delivered :
that is the time for the dealer person
ally to explain to owners the adj
vantage of precision service equip
ment, special trained mechanics, the
Importance Of having repair work
performed by authorized Ford deal
ers. At this time the owners name
must be entered on the service fol-
low-up record, which operation is the
first step in the regular follow-up
of the new customer.
Systematic and regular attention to
fabrication and mechanical adjust
ments are vitality impairment points
of care in the new ear. Therefore,
every Model A Car and AA Truck
should be brought into the dealers
service station for the following in
spcction service at the end of each
500 mile period, up to and including
1900 miles. NO CHARGE should be
made for labor or materials incident
al to this service, except for oil
furnished for oil change.
|. Change engine oil.
2. Lubricate ear, which excludes
complete chassis fabrication, clutch
throwout bearing, spray springs,
grease hood lacings and fasteners,
check fabrication, transmission, rear
axle and steering gear,check motor
oil.
3. Check battery, put water in bat
terry, check gravity and connections.
4. Check generator charging rate.
5 Check distributor breaker points
and gap.
6. Check idling speed and carbure-
tor adjustment.
7. Check all lights.
8. Check brakes; do not adjust un-
less necessary.
g.. Check shock absorber adjust
and see that clamp bolt is drawn
down tight.
10. Check tire pressures.
11.lnspect steering gear ball arm
and drag link.
II. Wipe off windshield and wind
ows.
With the final inspection, dealers
should check wheel alignment, body
bolts and spring shackles.
Some dealers strongly advocate
setting a definite date on which each
car should be brought in for inspec-
ton. We are inclined to favor this
practice but in any event, owners
must be followed for an inspection at
least every thirty days by telephone,
by letter, or by personal call so that
the car will not be neglected, and the
owner will be kept in touch with the
dealer and familiar with Ford prod
ucts.

but that history would give him a
place among the best known pioneers
of the West if he could have to relate
his varied enterprises and experiences.
However, he was never a mar to
speak much of his early day expert
ences on the rapidly changing 'front.'
iers, and posterity has but a meagre
record to place after his name in the
annals of the period.
Much that is known OF him is told
by the many men with whom he came
in contact in his youth, but there re-
mains but a few of these, and widely
scattered as they are it has as yet
been impossible to obtain a correlated

One Of the vests greatest buffalo

In the spring Of 'S5 he and Dick Bald

In 1889, Montana Jim" anne to
Williston and was married here, re-
turning with his bride to his ranch at
Poplar where he has been residing
since. At the time of his death he had

Less than a year ago, the pictur-
esque Montanan, through a chance
contact. discovered that a brother
whom he had not seen in half a cen
tury was still alive. The two brothers
held a reunion. They had lost track
of one another in the thinly popula-

other dead.

to this section. 1t is definitely
known that as early as II he camp

he helped bury the dead in the Gus

1t was while living near Camp

discovery that saved his life. Some of
the Drawer civilians had built cabins a
ways from the fort. Montana jim"
