All too frequently we express re-
gret on the death of an acquaintance
or a passing friend, in perfunctory
manner. But this is not true in the
present instance, as no one who knew
Jacob L. Echard can but deeply regret
his passing. He was that type OF
man with whom it was good to be in
daily contact. Always cheerful, al
ways pleasant, in good health and ill,
in affiuence and in adversely; accom-
modating, always ready to oblige; re-
liable, honest. In short, good citi-
zen of the highest type, one who will
be missed, not alone by his family
and intimate friends, but by the COM
munity at large.

We have always contended that
good fishing in any county is source
of much revenue. There is proof of
this in the statement made by Sweep
son Earle, Conservation Commission
err, who stated in a report that ang-
lers spent more than 100000 in one
week in pursuit of this pastime in
fishing trips in the Chesapeake Bay
and it's tidal tributaries.
No county in the State, excepting,
of course, the shore counties, has a
finer opportunity of developing pay
ing business than has Garrett. With
the finest inland body of water in the
State, natural habitat for game fish,
it would seem that an opportunity
is being neglected.
The report further states that APP
proximately 5000 of the $1,000 per-
sons who engaged-in fishing for this
one week, remained at boarding
houses and hotels for at least two
days and spent at least $500 day
for board and lodging and inciden-
tails. This item alone put $45,000
day in circulation. If we could do
one-tenth the business it would pay
big.

IS From RichhoIt School Out
fitted Tuesday; Many Fine
Gifts Received

Thirty-five children from the
Richholt school were being equipped
with new shoes, overshoes, stockings
and underwear at the open Your
Heart" headquarters Tuesday.
In addition other items of clothing
were being selected for them from

tributed through the generosity OF
Bismarck citizens, and in a few cases
additional items of clothing were be-
ing purchased.
l.. V. Miller, campaign chairman,
said q relatively large quantity Of
clothing has been donated recently
and that the organization set up by
the American Legion Is in better po-
sition to distribute some forms of re-
lief than 1t has been at any previous
time during this campaign.
mo one can tell me that Bismarck
folks aren't big-hearted," Miller COM
mented. 1.-THE way donations have
been rolling in is surprising. And I
want the people who have contrib
uted to know that We are placing the
things which they donate where we
feel they will do the most good. All
Of the fellows are getting big kick
out of QUILTING these kids. It is
really fun"
1.-The fellows" referred to members
of the Legion who are donating their
time to the work, as In previous years.
Approximately Is packages were
mailed Tuesday to persons living in
Burleigh county outside the city of
Bismarck from whom requests for
help had been received. Additional
packages for rural folks will be
mailed Wednesday and the work OF

Several wagon-loads of toys, sent
to the penitentiary for repair by
prisoners, are due to be returned to
the headquarters Wednesday or
Thursday and the work of distribute
ing them will begin as soon as pos
sible. Miller said.

Emory Lingle, %, was sentenced to
three and one-half years In the state

plea Of guilty to a charge of extor-
ton had been entered.
He confessed sending two threat
ening letters to w. p. Davies, editor

vember. The arrest of Lingle last
Saturday resulted from a long inves-
tigation of two attempts to extort
money from Grand Forks men. Da-

that he leave $500 in a certain place.
Don Whitman was kidnapped at the
point Of gun and compelled to drive
through the city, while his abductor

liver $4,000 to him the following
night. Lingle denied all knowledge
Of the Whitman case.
Five other sentences were pro-
nounced by Judge Holt on pleas Of
guilty. They were: Henning Haul
gen, one year and a half for burg
larry; Virgil Belleau. one year for OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses:

MARSHAL REQUESTS
CARE IN HANDLING
CHRISTMAS TREES
H. L. Reade Urges N. D. Resi-
dents to Avoid lnfIamma-
BILE Decorations

Careful planning Of Christmas dec
orations, with view to taking every
possible precaution against fire, is
urged by H. L. Reade, state fire mar
shall.
He listed the following "don'tS' to
insure safe Christmas:
Don't set up the tree so that 1t
can topple over easily and don't place
it near heating or lighting fixtures.
Don't use lighted candles on trees.
Don't use paper, cotton or celluloid
ornaments. Incombustible trimmings
now may be purchased.
Don't allow smoking near Christmas
trees.
Don't permit paper to accumulate.
Don't be careless in the use of cleo
trical equipment or in extended wir-
ing.
Don't give small children danger
Gus toys-such as those requiring al
cohol, kerosene or gasoline.
Don't permit use of nitrocellulose
film in home motion picture machines.
This is dangerous because it is ex-
tremely inflammable and, in burning,
releases fumes causing death. Use
only safety" film, known as acetate
film.
Don't neglect to keep handy some
thing with which to put out the fire
that does happen to start.
Don't keep the Christmas tree up
after Dec. 81. It becomes dried out
after very few days in the house.
Reade recommended that care
should be exercised where electric
bulbs are used on Christmas trees to
avoid short circuits and contacts Of
the hot bulbs with flimsy ornaments.
Ornaments that are either SLOW
burning or incombustible were sug-
gested for trees and room decorations
instead Of paper, cotton or other
burnable materials.
He stressed particularly the import
ance of removing trees from the house
shortly after Christmas, before they
become dried out. In some foreign
countries, Reade said, 1t Is considered
bad luck to keep the Christmas tree
after Dec. 81.

Farm Bill Hearing
Draws Near Close

Washington, Dec. 2o.-(R}-An in
tention to close hearings Tuesday
night on the domestic allotment farm
relief plans so that preparation Of a
bill might be begun was announced
by Chairman Jones Of the house ag-
riculture committee.
Jones made the statement as
Thomas E. Wilson Of the Wilson
Packing company. Chicago. took the
stand in opposition to the proposed
processing tax on hogs. Wheat, cot
ton and tobacco are the other commo-
dities included in the bill.
Like other packers who preceded
him Wilson said the processing tax
proposed on hogs out Of which pro-
ducers would be paid q bounty would
be taken out OF the price paid them.
II don't believe the farmer Is look
ing to legislative help, he said. "He
wants relief from the burdens put on
him and on all Of US such Is high tax
es, high interest rates, lack Of prop
er banking facilities and low commod-
ity prices"
Wilson predicted there would be
Bookkeeping Of hogs by producers not
desiring to come In under the plan.
THE hog producer who did not
come In would manage to kill and
peddle his own hogs" he said.
