SCIENCE WINS AGAIN
KEYHOLE NUT CRACKED

Finding the keyhole is a serious
question.
Dramas and tragedies have been
raced to the inability to locate the
place where the key should go
The problem has entered divorce
ecords.
Inventors have battled with 1t.
Pen-like flashlights have been
marketed as keyhole finding aids.
Even the comic magazines have Of
fered suggestions. Then came the
automobile which added just one
more phase to the problem-an ig-
milton lock keyhole usually located
in the most shadowy corner OF the
instrument panel.
Many motorists as well as house
holders took their post graduate
course in profanity while seeking
to find that elusive little slot
where the key should go. Thous-
ands refused to remove the key,
leaving their cars at the mercy OF
thieves. rather than play a losing
game of hide and seek when dark
ness fell.
All this, however, before certain
engineers pulled down their eye
shades. gripped their micrometers
and started to grapple with the
problem. Days, months, years pass
ed. then-Eureka. The answer is
found on the 1882 Oldsmobile-they
have Illuminated keyholes.

Bandtry among nations has been reached with Japan taking the
lead with her outlaw assault on China Her total disregard of the
covenants of the League of Nations, of which she is a member, puts
it squarely up to the other members and the United States to bring
her to her knees by peaceful means A universal boycott should do the

NINETEEN A

This issue of The Herald, Volume XIX, Number 50, completes its
nineteenth year, and comes within two months OF filling out fifteen
years for the present editorial management. Next week will be Volume
Xxx and Number and the time will be surprisingly short until Number
80 again arrives. An editor. a printer and a reporter engaged in get
ting out a journal are never worried about unemployment. They have
steady jobs. A journal, you know is something that goes round and
round. A weekly newspaper has to get out a issue for each seven
times the Earth rotates. 1t simply must keep up with the solar ss-
tenn n o matter how short it may be of time or money. In other words
our wagon is hitched to a star.
1t is with pangs of regret that we IRE compelled to cut the size Of
the paper and crowd out much national and editorial matter and some
with a local bearing we would like to put before our readers. It can
not be helped at present but better times are coming. If We keep
our nerve and use our head we will all make good in Montana, and
especially in the favored Wolf Point area In spite Of restricted rain
fall there is no other section OF the great Northwest that offers better
opportunities to people with limited capital 1t must be admitted
that agriculture in eastern Montana is much like prohibition in Amerf

will have the tremendous advantage OF our experience and the exper-
fence of others. Take the moisture and the general weather for the

Both farming and business, in this new country, have been sailing
an uncharted sea. Having now been over the route We cn surely do

our only excuse is that it all had to be said. A farmer boy was sent
out to a field with a yoke of green steers and a harrow. The young
oxen pulled and hauled and crowded against each other while the
drag described a winding course. The legweary boy swung his whip
and yelled gee and haw commands at Buck and Bright with only
contrary results. Finally, in disgust, he screamed: Whoa, haw. gee.

Gypsy Dancer

Vincente Escudero, the famous
Spanish gypsy dancer who has
won acclaim all over Europe,
came to America for the first
time a few weeks ago and made
his New York debut to packed
house last Sunday night, on
which occasion he won such ap-
plause and had so many requests
for encores. that the program
lasted twice its original length.
Escudero brings his company Of
two charming Spanish girl
dancers, a guitarist, and a plan
ist, to Washington Tuesday after
noon, February 16. They will
appear at the National Theater
at 4:40 p. m. on that date.
A seeming prosaic reason-a
fear of sea-SickneSS-kept EScu-
dero from coming to America long
ago. It is understood that he
had a most successful crossing
and, as w. j. Henderson, dean of
music critics, wrote in his review
in Mondays New York Sun:
