arm, which handicapped him last
year, was not so sure then, but the
red-head today is the leading pin
FOUNDER in the city and is Indicating
those who prognoSticated his return
to his former great form.
Today Red, by virtue Of sets Of
38e, 344 and 400, is sporting an
average of 1913 in the District
League. And his three sets in the
National Capital League have been
403. 1872 and 341-an average Of
little over 125.
He is the only local bowler to
roll more than one 400" set this
season and is the main cog in the
Northeast Temple machine, which
now is topping the District League,
and is in third place in the National
Capital League.
Megaw, who, despite his past feats
has never been ranked among the
country's first 20 bowlers, is cunning
for a place this season, and If he
keeps up his present pace, he is
sure to be around the top in the
ranking this season.

gressional Country Club yesterday,
downing M. Parker Nolan, who had
been chosen to triumph in the tour
ney, in the semi-final, and then going

surprise victory in the Semi-flnal over
Page Hufty, twice a former champion.
There was no question as to the
merit Of Stewards victory, for he
played fine golf to beat both Nolan
and Jones. Against Nolan, known as
the siege gun" because Of his distance
from the tee, he was around in "a, and
he was only one above par in the final
match with Jones when he won by 5

do the work. That money will not remain
here but will go to some other town where
it will be spent; it will pass out of the local
circulation and GO into the hands of people
who may never come here and make use of
it at our stores or business places, or for pay
ing other workmen. If one Of our residents
can afford to hire anyone at any kind of a
wage, he can certainly afford to pay as much
or even a little more to our own home guard.
AS the ad continues IF at. any time
their work should prove faulty in any re-
spect, they are still here to make it good"
How many of you have found this to be the
truth2 We venture to say that at least fifty
per cent of the work done by irresponsible
floating workers could have been done at
less final cost and more satisfactory by our
own workers.
Our local workers do not want to leave
a poorly finished Job. They know that a job
we'll done is their best advertisement, and
will lead to more work. The drifter hurries
or crawls through his work, depending upon
how he is paid, and after collecting his
money passes on to other fields.
Our community contains hundreds of
competent WOIkcIS WHO are community
builders, and who support every public en-
terprise; support its churches, schools and
town, and they are entitled to more consid-
Grafton than is sometimes given them.
Employing outside help for local work
of any sort, as long as we have capable
workers needing employment right here at
home, is like sending to a mail order house
for goods that can be purchased over the
counters in our local business houses.
Every time any of us employ outside
help or patronize mail order catalog houses
we are un%intentionally hurting and helping
to destroy our own community.

IT'S o BAD
(Opheim Observer

(Opheim Observer
Over in Sheridan county the voters
turned down the Referendum by a majority
Of over 300.
This fact is more remarkable because
Sheridan county is in position to gain prob
ably much more than the ordinary county
in the State of Montana by the present act.
A federal highway has been designated
across the entire county Of which about 10
miles has already been constructed, with
prospects of a highway connecting with the
Canadian highway system leading to Regina
and also one connecting with the North Da-
kota road at Westby in the near future if
the road program was carried out.
While the State of Montana was giving
a better than two to one majority for better
roads, Sheridan County with prospects of
more than fifty miles of State and Federal
highway, which would employ hundreds of
men and bring hundreds of thousands Of
dollars into the county, turned it down be-
cause of anti-highway propaganda based on
fantastic possibilities that will never occur
rather than on the merits of the measure.
Because of this propaganda, the County
OF Sheridan has went on record as against
good roads. 1t is really too bad, for during
the several years residence Of the editor of
this paper in Sheridan county, he has found
the people of that county very fine citizens
and worthy of having just as good roads as
any other community, but the vote on May
5th is almost bound to have it's effect upon
their designated highway project, and it may
now be among the last to be finished in the
four-year program of highway construction.
1t is hard to believe hat a people with
so much to gain and nothing to lose could be
pursuaded to vote against a proposition that
means so much to the progressive develop
ment of Montana and Sheridan county in
particular.
