from Mrs. Byrnes, an old -time
friend, for an illness with which
he has been afflicted recently. He
arose early Thursday morning and
went out doors and shortly after

when o. P. Mckinley, for whom
requisition papers were issued by
Gov. Cooney at Helena, surrender

charging him with horsestealing.

no difficulty in proving his in

Dr. L. H. Labbitt and John ]. Har-
ris, Hardin Representatives
Are Optimistic.

DR.. L. H. Labbitt and John J.
Harris, who are in Washington,
D. c., in the interest of the Big
Horn dam project, write very en-
couraging letters as to the prog
ress they are making. Under date
of Feb. 26, DR.. Labbitt writes the
Hardin Tribune-Herald as fol-
lows:
II thot it might be a good idea
to tell you what is being done for
the Big Horn dam by our repre-
sentatives at Washington.
Il am under the guidance of
Senator Wheeler's Office and CO.
operating with Senator Erickson
and John J. Harris. We have the
project in the proper channels for
consideration and while there
seems to be a lot of time con-
sumed in the various steps that
have to be taken, I can see the
reason for such delays. Before
one department can report to
another on It they must rely upon
reports from their own various de-
partments and acquaint them
with the real merits Of the prof.
ect of which they are especially
inquiring. When you realize the
number of projects presented and
the political pressure back of some
Of these, the difficulty and delay
in obtaining the various appoint
ments can be duly appreciated.
1T took us two weeks to be very
sure that our project was an all
federal one. Having the Indians
here is a rather fortunate thing,
as their consent is important to
obtain us hearings in the various
other departments. Unless the
head of a department has every
thing on which to base a decision
his assistants will not let him even
hear the argument. This ground
work is necessary and must be
done. We know the engineering
and other details to the last
minute and so far have been able
to answer all questions 1000,
backed up by statistics from the
government figures, where that is
necessary. We have had some
more slides prepared to show
these details in concise form, so
If this dam doesn't go over right

FED. WOMENS CLUBS
MEET AT LODGE GRASS
A Pleasing Literary-M Musical Pro-
gram Is Followed by a
Luncheon,

The Big Horn County Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs held a
very enjoyable and successful all
day session at the Chiver's Me-
mortal chapel in Lodge Grass,
last Saturday, Feb. "a. The morn
ing session opened with an invo-
cation by Miss Malvina johnson,
followed by the Salute to the
Flag" led by Miss Clara Odds and
the group singing of america"
Various items of business were
disposed of, the most important
being consideration of the re-em-
ployment of women under the c..
w. A. and the new ruling that
only women with n or more
dependents may be so employed,
and the health projects for the
county. It was the expressed de-
sire of all delegations that Big
Horn county should have a full
time, ~year-round service of an &C
cepted public health nurse so that
preventive work and educational
projects would have no inter-
ruption. Many spoke of this as
exceeding in Importance the very
desirable road, hog and other
projects.
The work of a doctor is cor
receive, that of a health nurse is
preventive. Talks to that end
were given by Stanley A. Yergey,
representing the Red Cross and
by Miss Harriet O'Day, who is
the public health nurse at the
present time.
A delicious three-course lunch
con was served at tables daintily
adorned in patriotic motifs in the
social room of the church, where
all sessions were held. Music was
furnished during and following
the luncheon until 2 p. m. by Mrs.
Crane, piano; Miss Crane, cello,
and Miss Eilers, violin-all from
Sheridan. The afternoon address
was given by Mrs. Clarence Wulf-
jen, Sheridan, Wyo., who gave a
charming account of her trip
around the world a little over a
year ago. Mrs. Wulfjen displayed
many beautiful articles, dolls,
miniature houses, trinkets, wear
ing apparel, embroidered silks,
etc., acquired in many lands-a
very valuable and unique display.
Mrs. N. E. Hannant, president of
the County Federation, presided.
Those from Hardin who were
present were S. A. Yergey, Miss
ODay and Mesdames Hobson and
Hannant.

FORMER HARDIN EDITOR
WRITES ANOTHER BOOK
John Preston Buschlen, Author of
Screen STAR" Puts Out
Not Ashamed"

OF interest to past and present
residents of this community who
remember J.. P. Buschlen is the
recent announcement appearing in
the Billings Gazette that he had
scored another book which will
undoubtedly "go over" with the
same popularity as Screen Star"
which was introduced to the ma
tons fiction readers by Double
day, Doran & Co., of New York,
about two years ago. The new
book, entitled Not Ashamed"
went on sale last Monday and in
reference to it the writer of Tales
of the Town in the Gazette says:
Not Ashamed was written by
Jack Preston, who formerly did
his ~scrivening in Billings, Har-
din and other Treasure State
metropolises. It is his second book
since he went to Hollywood in
search of fame and fortune some
10 years ago. Fame and fortune
were singularly elusive until he
turned out Screen Star That
book made him, fictionally speak
ing. It was turned into a movie
which, exposing the innermost
secrets of a movie queen, was as
sured of success before it was
shot,"
Jack Preston CBuschlen) pre-
vious to entering the army during
the World war was an employee of
the Hardin State Bank. On his
return to Hardin after the war
he was engaged in newspaper
work on both the Hardin Tribune
and the Hardin Herald and the
editing of I'm the World War;" a
book about the boys of Big Horn
county who served under the
colors. Several of his first literary
attempts, among them, "A Can
adam Bank Clerk" can be found
among the books at the local
public library. Jacks many old
friends in this section of the
state congratulate him on his
success in the literary field.

now, it will be because of the
presidents new idea of getting a
definite plan of improvement in
the whole Mississippi Valley sys-
TEN. We feel that we can get in
line before this commission can
even begin their investigations.
-Four cabinet members and a
representative from each section
Of the country will sit on this
commission.
IF we had a project without
merit, we would have been count
ed out long ago. A. w. F. Koch's
plans and government data give
us a standing that is going to
keep us in the front-line for ap-
prevail. We are trying to take ad-
vantage OF all bets that will give
US as fast advancement as it is
possible to make. National policy,
appropriation of funds, and a
complete groundwork are the
things we are relying upon to put
this over, and we are very much
encouraged a. to its ultimate sue
cess.
Publicity on the various steps
we are taking would only hinder
our work, so you must leave the
details to be explained later"

freight rates. Nothing can be
done by arguing or talking about
it. We must act and act collective
ly.
The difference in freight of CSC
a bushel is enough to ruin any
wheat farmer over a term of
years. If we were placed on the
same rate as Custer every farmer
would get 6.6c a bushel more for
every bushel of wheat he sells.
Figure out how much more money
you would have for a ten-year
period or a twenty-year period.
On larger operators it would run
Into thousands of dollars every
year.
Let's get together and act in
the way stated above and save
for ourselves this $25 900 to $780,
900 every year. In the long run
that's enough to bankrupt any
community of this size.

III NRY HEAG FOUND
DEAD IN CAB OF

crossbar in the ceiling of the cab.
Though the cash was cut to the
bone, the wound had bled scarcely
any, an indication that Heagel was
dead before the truck hit the tele-
phone pole.
It was learned that Heagel came
into town about II O'Clock and
stopped at the Camp Custer filling
station. On leaving he had to
crank the engine to get it to start,
and the presumption is that the
exertion in cranking the engine
caused him to have a heart at
tack after he had taken his seat in
the truck and started towards the
depot, and that he probably x
PRED at about the point where
the car started to leave the road.
Henry Heagel came to this
country from Russia when a young
man, first locating in Nebraska
and afterwards coming to Hardin
some IL years ago and engaging in
oeetgrowing. For the past several
years he has resided on the Adams
irrigated farm in the Little Horn
valley, about five miles southeast
of Hardin.
Besides his widow he is survived
by three sons and two daughters,
namely: Henry, 20; Alex, 10; Wal
ter, 9; Mrs. John Mehling and
Irene, II, all of this community.
The funeral, which. was largely
attended, was held at the German
Lutheran church, Wednesday af-
ternoon at two o'clock, Rev.
Schmunck, the pastor, conducting
the services, during which appro-
pirate music was rendered by the
church choir. The pallbearers were
Conrad Yerger, Fred Benzel,
George Steinmetz, David Zeir, Jr.,
Henry Frickel and Jacob Dewald.
