highest January temperature on

AS the thermometer went up the
barometer dropped, and how. The
big combination instrument at the
Wolf Point drug showed 28.2, the
lowest the reporter, as least, has
ever noted. Another instrument on
the First National bank recorded
28.4. Down by the figures 90, be

the central and western part of the

some structures and did no small
damage.

Tuesday evening, a poor old
horse, one of a honey team hitch

down on the curved, CLASSY street

truck tried to drag it off to a spot
where there was some snow and
better footing but the harness

legs were whole. But poor old Dob
bin stretched out flat and groaned
at his fate. Somebody phoned the
police and Todd Stanley came to
see what could be done. A stone
boat was brought and the luckless
animal was rolled over onto it and
taken away.

With that responsibility goes strict measure of account

WISE WORDS

The best cure for drunken
ness is while sober to see a
drunken man.
A brave man trembles before
the bugle blows; a coward,
afterward.
Between two towards. he has
the advantage who first detects
the other.
Seest thou a man that is
hasty in his words? There is
more hope of a fool than OF
him.
Never put your finger be-
tween the tree and the bark.
Death reduces all to the
ranks.
Let him who sleeps too much
borrow the pillow of a debtor.
Lean liberty is better than
fat slavery.
Every maybe hath a maybe
not.
Who does not beat his own
child will later beat his own
breast.
Fashion wears out more ap-
parel than the man.

JugOSlavia-Where Orient and
OcCident Mingle

There are fads in travel, as
in everything else. Someone
happens upon a place right off
the beaten track, full of simple
charm and pleasant people, with
marvellous scenery, and out Of
the goodness of his heart, tells
of his discovery. AS a result,
the place suddenly finds itself
popular-and usually that is
the end of the idyl.
One region that has become
increasingly popular, yet has
managed to remain it's sweet,
simple, inexpensive self, is the
eastern coast of the Adriatic,
som e times enthusiastically
dubbed the JugoSlav Riviera.
There steamers and yachts ply
along the Dalmatian coast, put
ting in at quaint little harbors
and towns, passing deep tlordS
and some 900 beautiful islands
flung like a green garland on
the lovely, deep blue Adriatic.
The coast towns are inf
nitely fascinating, and many
of them show strong traces
of Roman occupation. Split, a
small town, has wonderful ruins,
including the remains OF
the palace built by the Roman
Emperor Diocletian, almost in
tact. Near by at Solin there

Never was there a truer saying
than "The devil finds work for
idle hands to do"
NOTHING WILL MAKE A
NO-ACCOUNT OUT OF A MAN
OR WOMAN QUICKER THAN
LEISURE.
We all feel that we are per-
fectly able to be our own
bosses, to amuse ourselves and
control ourselves. BUT MIGHTY
FEW OF US ARE. Most of
us are lacking in inner re-
sources. We need responsibility
to hold us steady. We need
program to direct our ac-
tivities.
We need discipline to keep
us from going jungle.

MILLION YEARS TO AC-
QUIRE HIS PRESENT CIVIL

ALL HE HAS ACQUIRED IN
FIVE DAYS IF YOU TAKE
THE PRESSURE OFF HIM
AND TURN HIM OUT, HOG
WILD, TO FOLLOW HIS OWN
DEVICES. IN NO TINE At
ALL HE'LL GO BACK TO
MONKEY MALICE.
And that's no idle threat.
This country faces a very real
menace when it cuts down
working hours.
A man needs a brain, back
bone and training to make
good in a job; but he needs
more brains, backbone. and
training to make good in leisure.
I wonder if any large nation
is as poorly prepared for large
amounts of leisure as America.
Using Leisure Time
The working masses of other
nations have always felt that
leisure was desirable, and have
learned how to use it. In some
races, as amongst the Russian
Jews, there is a keen desire to
study, even amongst the poorest
people. In other nations, every
man who can find the time anc
a bit of land goes to gardening.
Some form walking tours to
study the country. Some en-.
gage in community ChoruSeS, i'll
community theaterS.
But Americans have always
been workers and little else but.
They have looked with suSpl-
cion on idleness, and have
treated with contempt anyone
who retired while he could still
work. They have never felt
that much leisure was either de-
sirable or honorable, and as .
consequence have never learned
how to use 1t.
The average American worker
is neither a student, farmer,
musician nor walker. He likes
his Sunday picnic, his movie,
his radio and his baseball game.
After that, he loafs, and
speedily goes edgy.
Leisure is on the way. Moth
ing can or should stop it.
BUT UNLESS WE CAN
LEARN HOW TO USE 1T, IT'S
GOING TO RAISE PLENTY
OF CAIN!

Suing a man because he
won't go on loving you is about
as logical as shooting him be-
cause he won't stop his hair
from falling out.
In some ways, man resembles
the simple ostrich; so long as
he can deceive himself, he goes
through life in the naive con-
viction that no woman on earth
can see through him.
A pedestrian may have the
right of way at a crossing, and
a man may have the right to a
change of heart in the middle
of a love-affair - but that
doesn't do either of them much

At 20, when a love-affair goes
on the rocks, man closes his
eyes and exclaims, That's the
