REV. JOHNSON G. FAMILY
HOME

Rev. and Mrs. VIM. G.. Johnson
and children returned last week
from a months vacation trip which
took them to Kansas and Missouri
as we'll as through several other
states. Rev. Johnson says crops
looked fine wherever they went,
but that prices were low and eco
nomic conditions no better than
here. In Missouri wheat was SELL
ing for 80 cents a bushel and oats
for Is cents. Old corn was also
bringing 80 cents. People in the
Middle West find times like these
harder than westerners, because
they have so much greater invest
ments in their farm property, and
in many cases have heavy mort
cages and it is difficult to make
enough for the interest on their
loans.

for both old and young.
Bonnie Belle, the three year old
daughter of Mrs. Bonnie REM,
made a great hit when she sang
two club songs, proving marked
ability to memorize words and mus
ic for one so young.
Mrs. George Donehoo, in an
earnest talk, advised the club MEM
bers of the wonderful good of ser
vice in their work.
"Why My Girls are in Club
Work" by Mrs. w. B. Dewitt, also
was very good, carrying the
thought of what girls can do to
better themselves in various ways.
This talk was followed by another
club song.
Esther Courchene, who won the
honor of being the highest point
club member in the county. won a
trip to Helena State Fair last year
and this year to Bozeman, gave the
history of the wonder Workers
of which she is president. a club
song closed the interesting pro-
gram. Lunch furnished by all the
clubs was then served by the girls,
after which an exhibit Of sewing
by the clubs was held. Some of
the finished articles showed the
talent of the girls, in the almost
perfect work, which would not have
been developed in the members if
it were not for the All clubs.
The clubs represented at the
meeting we're the Wonder Workers,
T. N. T., Klever Hooks, Breakfast
club and the Frazer club. The lead
ers present we're Mrs. Bonnie REM,
Mrs. w. L. Carlson, Mrs. Charles

Borah Versus Smith

Senator Borah's indignation over AL Smiths speech
at Newark is hard to follow. attacking the hypoc-
risy of the Republican prohibition plank, Smith
merely following the eminent leadership of Borah
himself who has been saying unkind things about
that straddle ever since the June convention.
Whatever change of mind Borah may or may
not have had the subject the fact remains that
the Republican platform dictated by Hoover and
the Hoover acceptance speech represent evasve bids
for both wet and dry votes.
Hoover and his platform oppose outright repeal,
but open the way for questionable revision retain
ing the federal usurpation of police power which
is one of the worst features of national prohibition
On the important issue of modification of the dry
laws, pending repeal revision of the Amendment
Hoover is silent
In contrast the Democratic platform and candi-
date are for outright repeal of the amendment and
immediate modification of the law
Two points made by Borah are worth answering
because they typical of the misleading dry propa
ganda in this campaign:
One is the charge that the Democratic repeal
plan would 'leave the dry states overrun by the
liquor traffic" On the contrary the pre-prohibiton
laws requiring the federal government to protect
dry states from liquor shipments from wet states
have not been repealed-that has been decided by
the supreme court Those protective laws would oper-
ate automatically following repeal of the amendment
The other Borah charge is that Smith and his
group subordinate all other national questions to the
cry Give us beer, give something to drink That
is absurd.
People do not have to wait for prohibition repeal
to get drink In most places there is no difficulty in
getting drink now The demand for repeal goes
much deeper than any personal desire to quench
thirst or even than any personal resentment against
unwaTanted interference with individual liberties.
This is proved by the large number of nondrinkng
citizens who oppose prohibition.
Prohibition is opposed because the experiment has
failed because it has bred racketeerng in politics and
business, increased crime. corrupted youth under
mined respect for all law, and put premium on ma
tional hypocrisy.
Prohibition is opposed because it robs the govern
ment of revenues, without stopping the flow of liquor
because the beer tax is much needed in time of de-
preston, deficit and threatened government credit.
Prohibition is opposd because it has cut across
party lines in such way to prevent party align
ment and party action the basic economic issues:
because prohibition political trickery has produced
situation in which the bread issue will not be faced
until the beer issue is out of the way.
Therefore, the prospect of political showdown on
prohibition at the polls days hence is one of the
few heartening aspects of this campaign,

Does He Approve?

President Hoover is reported to be reluctant to go
to the state Of illinois, where former Governor Small
is candidate for another term
His reluctance is said to be for the reason that
ne does not wish to be associated in the public mind
with an official whose record contained so many dis
graceful betrayals Of public interest.
Yet President Hoover rushes to Indiana, presum-
ably to save the state for himself, which under
standable, but also to Senator James Watson
which needs presidential explanation.
Does President Hoover approve the action of sena-
tor Watson in the sugar stock deal?
United States should be free from any possible per-
sonal interest in legislation the transaction is as
shameful as any charged against Governor Small of
Illinois.
The deal is matter Of record While the sugar
tariff was pending, Senator Watson received block
Of shares in a sugar company. He did not buy them
At least he did not pay for them He gave his note
II the sugar company prospered at the expense Of
the American consumer, Senator Watson could sell
his stock and take down a profit where he had in
vested nothing but his note-or did he invest some
thing more in the way of senatorial interest in the
tariff
When exposed, Senator Watson had the temerty
to laugh and declare that the stock was as worthless
as his note
Does President Hoover approve Of this deal? Does
he ask them to send back senator with this ideal of
public duty?

Today hundreds of children born

The exact cause of clubfeet is not

some one in the family has had
