BERT KINCAm FEEDING
SOME THIRTY DEER

Bert Kincaid was visitor in town
the first of the week and while here
made arrangements to take out feed
for starving deer which have gathered
at his place, some twenty-five or thirty
in number. For the past few weeks,
Mr. Kincaid has been feeding these
starving animals with his own feed and
he has also been cutting and falling
trees that the deer might feed on moss
from the timber
The forest service has now taken
steps to assist in feeding these animals
and they have sent out hay and oats
by Mr.. Kincaid for that purpose. This
was done by permission of the state
game commission.
It is urged by officials that the game
laws be rigidly adheared to as was
stated it is doubly criminal at this time
to kill deer as they are not fit for food
in any sense. Rigid enforcement of the
law will be carried out and forest Of
ficials as well as all law abiding citi-
zens will report anyone misusing the
game laws of this state. These men do
not wish to cause anyone to be the
victim of arrest on a game violation
charge, but it will be necessary to re-
port everyone caught IN this violation
Deer are starving at this time and since
they are being fed it tends to make
them more or less tame, SO everyone
is now asked to aid in saving the life of
these creatures Of the forest-T Troy

Many Dogs Being Poisoned.

The community is becoming quite
incensed over the poisoning of large
number of dogs in the city. Numerous
families have lost their pets and are
threatening vengeance if they could

is. The poison seems 70 have been scat

Some of the "bait" has been found,

The speaker said that Washington was
deeply religious man and man OF
the highest integrity and strength OF
character and that the outstanding sue
cess of his life that made possible his
great Service to mankind was because
of those characteristics of the man.
Senator Rowland delivered very in
teresting address and this feature was {
pleasing part of the afternoons pro-
gram.
The audience then stood and sang
the state song, Montana" with accom-
paniment by the band This was fol-
lowed by Sousa's STARS and Stripes

closing number the audience sang two
verses Of 1.-THE Star Spangled Banner,
with band accompaniment The num-
bers in which the audience was asked
to join were announced by Edna Noel
who beat time for the singing.
The account of this very pleasing
program would not be complete with
out mention of the very pretty stage
setting. As the curtain was rolled back
on the opening number there was dis
closed striking background to the
stage, consisting of large painting Of
the Capitol building at Washington

bust Of the immortal Washington. This
