CITIES BID FOR
MONTANA GAS
FAvORS FRANCHISE FOR
UTILITIES

HAVRE, March 14.-Word has
been received in Havre that the
Minneapolis city council voted u
unanimously in favor of granting a
gas franchise to the Great North
ern Gas and Utilities company of
Minneapolis. The company would
pipe gas from eastern and north
ern Montana into Minneapolis. Vot-
ers of the Minnesota city will have
to pass on this before the franchise
is granted.
Northern Montana is especially
interested in this action by the
Minneapolis council as it opens
possibilities for development of gas
structures throughout that terri
tory.
Officials of Great Falls, Havre
and other Montana cities recently
urged the Minneapolis council to
favor this franchise application on
the grounds that the gas would
come from that city's trade terri
tory.

LINDBERCH BABY
NOT RETURNED
BRING SOLUTION OF
MYSTERY

The Lindbergh kidnapping mys
terry still continues to BATTLE the po
lice and apparently the hundreds
of clues which have been followed
have yielded little that was help
ful.
Reports Thursday indicate that
a clue passed over in the early
part of the Investigation as being
of little Importance, may be val
liable.
A few days after the kidnapping
Mrs. Leandro Lightfoot of Frank
lin Park. N. J.. reported several
suspicious facts to the police. On
the night of the kidnapping, two
servants, who had been in her en-
ploy about a month asked to use
her a to drive to Franklin Park,
a distance of four miles over paved
road. The next day the speedome-
ter showed that the car had been
driven more than 60 miles and it
was spattered with mud, showing
that it had been driven off from
the main highway.
Two days later on ner return
from New York, the two servants
told her that a relative in Germany
was seriously i'll and they had to
leave Immediately. Later a chisel
found missing from a tool box,
and some Grating wood had disax
peared from the place. Franklin
Park is about 20 miles from Hope
well, New Jersey.
Mrs. Lightfoot reported all these
to the police, but is was
only within the last few days
when other clues failed, that any
Importance was attached to the
incident. Now the servants are
gone. without trace.

ATTEND SCHOOL
BID. CONVENTION
LIVINGSTON SPEAKS ON PEN
Atty AND INTEREST
AT LEWlSTOWN

]. R. Burgess, representing Dis
trict As, and Supt. F. H. Livings-
ton spent the first three days OF
this week at Lewistown where a
convention of the schoolboards as
ISOLATION was in session. Tuesday
afternoon, Mr.. Livingston, who for
a number of years has made a
study of the subject of penalty and
interest on delinquent taxes with
reference to the way school dis
tricts are getting their share of
this, made a report on the progress
that is being made by school dis
tricts over the state in collecting
this penalty and interest.
He told the school board mem
bers that in 1927 and 1928 Mon
tana counties collected approx
mately a million dollars in penalty
and interest on delinquent taxes,
and that of this amount some $780,
900 had been collected by the
school boards Approximately
$1,000 still remains to be col
lected. In some counties, work is
being done toward figuring the a.
mount due and making collection,
but in other counties, nothing is
being done.
Working for the penalty and in
terest collection had been like a
game of football, MIR. Livingston
told his audience. At every turn
he had met obstacles which had
to be overcom or lodged around.
John Quickenden of Lewistown
was named president of the Mon
tana School Boards association and
Havre was chosen as the conven-
ton city for 1888. j. r. Burgess
was elected third vice-president,
and has a place on the finance and
auditing committee.

NO DEPRESSION NOTED
In DOUGHNUT BUSINESS

The American Legion Auxiliary
was entertained at the home of
Mrs. F. M. Catlin by Mrs. C. l..
Rogers and Mrs Catlin, Wednes-
day. Four new members were mi
tiated. It was announced that the
district convention will be held at
Plentywood, Saturday, April 2.
Doughnut Day, next Saturday,
bids fair to be one of the big days
in local Auxiliary history. Orders
are rolling in at a rate that will
have the Auxiliary girls rolling
dough by the acre with lawn roll
ers. The reporter first caught the
report, over the phone as 118
thousand doughnuts, total orders
to date. But this was quickly cor
rected. They said, mo, thank you,
it's 118 DOZEN, so far. We are not
trying to control the doughnut in
dustry of the world. But we are
pleased with the fine response to
u bathing pool benefit idea"
And now a statistical fiend in
quires: "If these 11S dozen dough
nuts average four inches at their
greatest diameter and were laid
edge to edge, what would be the
dimensions of the rectangular pool
that they would exactly reach a.
round; the ratio of the width to
the length of the pool being as 1
to %"

POPLAR LANDS
In 9Th PLACE
LOSES 2 OUT OF 4 BY CLOSE
SCORES; BUTTE CITY
TAKES REMNANT

The Poplar high school basket
ball team went the four game
route at the state tournament, win
ing two good games after dropping
the first one to Great Falls Is to
10. In their second game they beat
Butte Central 10 to Is. Next they
met Klein, winning IS to 6. Klein
grabbed six points in first two or
three minutes of the play but new
er scored again. The fourth game,
with Anaconda, was fast and close.
If Poplar had put up the game at
the beginning they did in the last
quarter they would have won and
taken 9Th place. With one substi-
tuition they surely would have won
from Great Falls. Seemingly they
had been coached for a defensive
style of play and lacked scoring
ability.
But they did fine as it was and
brought credit to Poplar and the
northeast district. Had the team
landed nearer the top Ramstad
would certainly have been on the
first all-state team. Price also gave
a splendid account of himself, es-
pecially in the pinches.
The final game resulted Butte
City 81, Livingston Is. The little
mining town of Bear Creek sent
the surprise team to the tourna-
ment. The first eight places went

IRISH OBSERVE DAY
OF PATRON SAINT

st. Patrick's Day in the avenin
was fittingly commemorated at the
Knights of Columbus hall Thursday
evening by an Irish program that
touched a responsive chord in the
hearts of all those with Irish blood
in their viens, even though a few
generations removed from the ould
sod. There was a delightful mingl-
ing of the serious and humorous
which is characteristic of the Irish
people. Mrs. Joe Dougherty pre-
sided.
Several excellent musical num-
bers were given by some of the
high school students, accompani-
ments being played by Mrs. Kutrz
and Miss Leona Artz. These includ-
ed a girls quartet composed of the
Artz and Geisen sisters, a saxo-
phone duet by Tom Kelly and Mel
bourne Coffey, a trombone solo by
Paul Donehoo, accompanied by
Mary Donehoo, and a mixed quart
ct. Katherine and Marian Johnson,
Jim Kelly and Tom Jansen.
Rev. G. M. Donehoo, whose fore
bears came from st. Patrick's w
home town, told of the life of st.
Patrick. The patron saint of Ire
land was born in England and was
captured and taken to Ireland as
a slave when he was sixteen years
old. Years later he escaped to re-
turn after a time and devote his
life to Outstanding the island. He
found the island all pagan, he LETT
it all Christian. That, Rev. Done
hoo said, summed up his life, a
life which was successful in its I'M
dertaking, not in spite of difficult
les, but because of them.
John Coffey and Dad Kearney
brought tears-of laughter--to the
eyes of the audience with their in
imitible representations, while DR..
DeWane in an original encore
"O'Houligan's Ball" exposed some
of the follies and scandals of the
400 that would make de-
lightful reading for a primrose

this period of depression deserved
to be free.
Miss Belle Donaghue gave a
short talk in which she said that
on st. Patrick's day everyone who
had a drop of Irish blood in him
enjoyed meeting with other Irish
in commemoration of the occasion.
This did not imply disloyalty,
since there were Irish in this
country from its earliest days, but
that it was as Jacob Riis had ex-
pressed it. For his native land he
felt the same love as toward his
mother, Tor the land of his adopt
ion he had the love one gives a
sweetheart or wife.
The program concluded with
assembly singing of Star Spangled
Banner.

MENTS

The executive committee of the
drouth relief organization of Roose-
welt county, together with the To-
cal district committee and County
Extension Agent Warden, met here
Tuesday morning to determine the
amount of stock feed and flour
which will be needed in this county
from the 0,000,0 900 bushels of
wheat made available for relief
supplies by a recent act of CON
gress Miss Ann McNechen, district
representative of the American
Red Cross was present at the
meeting.
Wednesday, o. C. Johnson, chair
man of the county drouth relief
committee, was at Culbertson to
consult with the local committee
there relative to the county's re-
quirements of stock feed and flour,
made available by the government,
to be distributed through the regu-
lar drouth relief channels.
Advice has been received that
five car loads of the government
wheat, exclusively for stock feed,
will be shipped Immediately and
should arrive in a few days. The
drouth relief officials say this
forty million bushel gift from the
stores of the grain sterilization
board will be of the greatest value
in meeting the Springtime emer-
gency, especially in the matter of
stock feed. This wise act of Con-
gress will be deeply appreciated by
relief organizations and those in
need.
