Eyes Blind To Spirit
World, Says Lodge

Weston-Super-Mare England-Hu-
man eyes are mercifully closed to the
realities of the spirit world, Sir Oliver
Lodge told the National Free Church
Council, else people should be over
whelmed.
1--WE would have no time for Out
daily work." the spiritualist said,
were we not encased with matter and
our eyes closed"
Sir Oliver said science was gradual
ly beginning to recognize the exist
ence, o of a spiritual world, neces-
sarily, but of a universe which had no
appeal to the senses and was not ma
t%erial.
II hold that life exists in space and
utilities matter for its own purposes
and operates matter, so that the ma
terial body does certain things.
Life and the mind do not stop
when the machine has stopped. | do
not suppose it. began when the ma
chine began. Every real thing is per-
petual," he said.

BAXTER, ST. LOUIS

One of three regional Red Cross
conferences in the state is being

William M. Baxter, Jr. manager

Two Cases Diphtheria
Precautions Are Taken

Two cases of diphtheria made
their appearance in Wolf Point
this week. Ruth Swedberg was
taken i'll Sunday and Helen Bauers
has been out Of school since the
first of the week. Wednesday
Ruth Swedberg's illness was pro-
%nounced diphtheria and Thursday
Helen Bauers was found to have
the same disease. Ruth was quite
sick the first of the week but was
reported feeling much better on
Thursday.
Many parents are having their
children inoculated with toxin-an-
titoxin as a precautionary meas
ure. Children having sore throat
or other suspicious symptoms are
being sent home from school, and
it is believed that by exercising
proper care the spread of the dis
ease may be prevented. In the be-
ginning diphtheria cannot be dis
tinguished from tonsilitis. Child
rem having sore throat should be
kept home from school and a ply
stefan called. 1t is better to err
the side of being too careful
than to be negligent.
Although there have been sew
eral cases Of sore throat in school,
up to Thursday afternoon, when
this as written, there had been
only two pronounced diphtheria.

z HEAVY RAINS
WITHIN A WEEK
SOIL is DEEPLY SATURATED,
WATER RUNS OVER
HIGHWAY

In the six days, Saturday to
Thursday, not less than two and
a half inches of water fell in this
vicinity. The Saturday rain, which
extended only a few miles west
but reached well to the east and
south, was so heavy and sudden
that easements were flooded and
water eight inches deep ran over
No. 2 highway in places. There
yer several showers at night, and
Thursday brought an all day
steady downpour. Wednesday
morning saw the first frost. 1t
was light and showed only on
roofs and other objects above the
ground. Here in the valley gard
ems and flowers were not dam
aged.
The Saturday rain was accom-
panied by a sharp electric display.
A lightning bolt in the vicinity of
Sapphire Heights blew out fuses,
worked havoc with radios and
blew off the door of a switch box
in n residence.
OF the Saturday rain the Poplar
Standard says:
"a virtual cloudburst, the sec
ond in as many months, fell on
the country northwest of here and
north Of Wolf Point Saturday and
for the second time Chelsea creek,
usually negligible, ran wild and
cut off travel on the highway for
many hours. Water running over
the highway covered the running
boards of the last cars to go
through and was still rising.
For the first time flood relief
needed, especially for Jay
kim and Deyo Spang. They had
crossed the east branch of the
creek, travelling northwest, and
were halted at the west branch
by high water. Turning around to
go back they found the bed they
had just crossing running full. I'm
able to go either way, they had to
stay on high ground between all
night, and would sure have well
coined a relief party with tobacco
and a few blankets.

VETERAN-PIONEER LAID AT
REST With MILITARY HONORS

fantry..
He was in the Atlanta campaign,
marched with Sherman to the sea,
campaigned through North and
South Carolina and took part in
the grand review at Washington.
On the march to the sea, the first
night out of Atlanta his company
camped on top of Stone mountain,
since made famous by the sculpt-
or, Borglum.
After the war, with the wander
lust in his veins, he travelled
through northern states, working
at his trade as a cigarmaker.
At Cleveland, July 8, 1867, he
married Amalia Won Kettler. They
lived together for 81 years until
her death in December, 1929.
Pioneering held a charm for
them. They went to Kansas, living
at Enterprise and then Kiowa.
When the Cherokee strip was
opened, Mr.. Blaich made the u
on an Indian pony he had been
training for weeks and won a
choice allotment. Later he sold
his REIMBURSEMENT for S600-a big
price in those days. In 1889 they
moved to Weatherford, Okla, and
lived there until 1914, when the
opening of the Fort Peck reserva-
ton once more set the Blaiches
to pioneering. They came to Wolf
Point and proved up a claim.
When it appeared that paying
for reservation land was going to
be uphill work during the drouth
period of 1917 to 1919, Mr.. Blaich
was instrumental in organizing the
Fort Peck Settlers association. It
was through efforts of this organi-
cation that several extensions in
time of making payment s were
granted homesteaders. Throughout
his life, he always took an active
interest in affairs of the commun-
ity in which he resided.
He spent last winter in Californ-
ia at the home of a nephew, Will
lam F. Blaich who resides in a
suburb of Los Angeles. A grand
son, Grover Blake, came from
Deadwood, S. D. to attend the
funeral.

honored by being appointed dean
of the district and Wolf Point will

pleased that this honor has been
conferred upon him.
A conference was called of the
various Catholic women's organi-
cation. This meeting was prelimin-
airy to another which will be held
next April, and was attended by
delegates from all over the district

the organizations into one. Miss
Miriam Marks of Great Falls was
in charge of the meetings, which
were held in the Methodist church
basement. There were about 80
delegates.
The Catholic ladies served din
