Monday, Jan. 23-
Ed Milligan and Mike Marko-
vich were business callers in Bill
lings last Thursday. They report
ed much more snow in that To-
cality than we have recently had
up this way.
John Abrahamson drove to Rob
erts Friday evening for a visit
with the home folks. Rumor hath
it that he spent some time in Bill
lings, but as we have no way of
verifying such far-fetched notions,
We are compelled to say, in an at
tempt to be authentic, that pos
sibly it's all a mistake.
DR.. Benson of Fromberg made a
professional call at the Doughe.ty
home last Thursday evening. On
the return trip he stopped in Bel
fry for a brief time to chat with
some old friends and acquaint-
ances.
Miss Alice Lumley, teacher in
the Prospect district, made a mid
week visit to her home in Red
Lodge last Wednesday evening TO-
the express and avowed purpose
of witnessing Hartwig's ~hoopsters
triumph over the hardwood ex-
ponents of the game as represent
ed by Coach Benefits quintette Of
basket shooters.
The Bilden and Miller families
were among those in this commun-
ity who journeyed to the Yellow
stone metropolis Saturday on a
shopping tour. Sherman Miller
was down that way earlier in the
week, getting outfitted for the
Easter parade. Easter comes late
this year, so it may be possible he
is thinking about something else.
Matthew Lantz spent the week
end with Martin Van Wrinkle, and
together they took in the basket
ball game between Park City and
Belfry in the local gym Saturday
night. The boys share of the eve
ning's entertainment was decidedly
one sided and proved more or less
of a runaway for the local quin-
tette. Dave Sterling carried off
high scoring honors for the Belfry
team with a total of 26 points.
The girls game, however, a a
different story with the local girls
fighting f~uriously to overcome a
three point lead which the Park
City girls held, and when it was
all over the score read Park City
81, Belfry %. This is the second
defeat for the girls, and coming
after a long string of victories, it
causes them to wonder if the OPP
posing teams have improved to
that extent or are the local girls
suffering from over-confidence
and a mid-season slump.
Martin Carlson, wife and son,
spent Sunday at the Carl Carlson
home in Wyoming.
The Woman's club met last Sat-
urday afternoon with Miss Doro-
thy Langdorf as hostess. Miss
Polly Taylor gave a very interest
ing and constructive talk on tech
nocracy.
Mrs. Ed Milligan entertained the
members of the H. E. o. club last
Friday afternoon. We understand
that Mrs. Chas. Burns came very
near to being recorded as A. w.
0. L. but when a special messen-
ger was sent to remind her of the
event she put up a superhuman
effort and managed to get there
in time to do justice to savory and
delightful lunch which was served
by the hostess.
The recent snowstorm with its
accompanying cold weather caused
Mildred Harrison and Beulah Clark
to break one of THEN few New
Years resolutions. Said %resolu-
ton was to the effect that they
would walk five miles a day until
they had attained the 1.-THE form
and svelte figure that is approved
by Good Housekeeping for young
ladies of their age and general de-
meanor.
Mr.. and Hrs. j. S. Van Wrinkle
entertained Mr.. and Mrs. Don
Wright with a turkey dinner and
all the fixings last Sunday.
Fred Kelley was in Bearcreek
last Saturday for a load Of coal
which he delivered at the Roy Hall
residence. Melvin Smith went
along to see that he didn't work
too hard.
Miss Burma Miller, a music stu
dent of Mrs. Christian, took an
examination in instrumental music
last Friday in Bearcreek. She re-
turned quite elated over the ex-
perience and hopes for a return
engagement soon.
