ADD TO CAR
REGISTRATION T
APRIL 80, SAYS LAW

County Treasurer George Nc
Donald gave notice this week to
the effect that automobile owners
in the county have until April 80
to register their vehicles if they
wish to escape a penalty of 10 per
cent which will be added to the
original license fee after that date
in accordance with the 1927 ses-
sion laws.
There are many cars in the
county yet to be registered, he
stated, and the fact that ar auto
mobile is in storage does not ex-
empt owners from the penalty if
application is made for registra-
ton after April 80.
The penalty is not attached on
a new car purchased after April
30, or on a second hand car pur-
chased after that date, providing
that the application for registra-
ton Of the latter vehicle is accom-
panied by an affidavit to the eff
feet that the car has been contin-
uously in the hands of a registered
dealer since December 81, 1888,
and not sold until after April 30,
1884. The exemption from the ten
per cent penalty also applies on
automobiles entering this state
from another state after April 30
and which have not been previous
ly registered in Montana.

SECOND ROBBERY
OCCURS IN CITY
Officers Seeking Thieves
Who Ransacked Fred
SCHNEIDER Home

With a second housebreak oc-
curing here last Wednesday with
in a period of ten days, Carbon
county authorities this week were
tracing numerous clues in an eff
fort to apprehend thieves who en-
tered the home of the Fred
Schneider family here during a
short absence of Mrs. SCHNEIDER in
the late afternoon.
Loot of the daylight providers
was confined to clothing of the
family, the loss amounting to a
sum between $3.50 and 5000. Val
liable articles in the house were
untouched, officers said, but var
ious bundles containing bed
spreads, sheets, tablecloths and
other household linens were found
gathered in the house indicating
that the thieves were disturbed in
their activities.
A list of missing articles fur
nished officers by Mrs. SCHNEIDER
included a brown lace dress, a
brown knit suit, a green and
white Bradley dress with white
buttons, a black georgette dress,
a mans tweed suit, a red silk
dress with three flounces, a red
silk dress with red fringe, four
silk slips, ~ house dresses, two
suits of mems wooden underwear,
two mems white shirts, three wolfe
summer dresses and a pink silk
dress with tan trimming.
Two women, said to have been
seen leaving the house, were the
objects of a search by the officers.
Entry to the house is believed to
have been gained by using the
house key retrieved from it's hid
ing place.
Ten days ago the home of NJ. B.
Myrebo was entered here on the
night of April s and articles val
ued at between $1,000 and $1,000
were taken in a systematic loot
ing of the place. Officers were
not inclined to the belief that the
two robberies were perpetrated by
the same parties or that a gang
of housebreakers were operating
here.

courteous and helpful to the peo-
pie of Carbon county in fitting

test because Of the greater con-
veniency of the Laurel meet.
Twenty subjects were offered
for competition in the meet and
although Joliet could only enter in
Is of them, the school won either
a first or second place in nine of
that number. The victor in the
contest was eligible for entry in
10 subjects only because, al
though the 20 subjects are taught
at the school, they are rotated
from year to year. Despite this
handicap, the Joliet school failed
in only four subjects to place
among the winning first three.
In the 10 subjects entered Joliet

one third. Fourteen students were
entered in the contest from the
school and nine Of them took at
least a second place. Of the six

and Roberts were entered, scoring
more points than total number
scored by all schools entered.

the school, will take the six first
