Poplar now has one of the most mod
ern school buildings of any town of its
size in Montana. The building is valued
at $1,000 Recent improvements to
the extent of 1000 were made pos
sible through the efforts of Senators
Wheeler and Murray and Governor
Ayers.
In addition to a four-year accredited
high school course, pupils are offered
home economics, trades and industries,
commercial work, and a variety Of
extra -curricular activities. Many stud
ents pass civil service examinations in
stenography upon completion Of the
two-year commercial course. This div
ision is considered the outstanding de-
partment in dealing with the immed-
late needs of the student.

Preceding the adoption ceremony,
Mr.. Mitchell and MI. Larson gave
talks concerning the meeting Of In
dian educators held at Hot Springs,
Ark. Incidentally it might be noted
that out of 125 present at this con-
ference only four were public school
superintendents, and they were from
the Fort Peck reservation. The Indians
received the outline of the Indian 'edu-
cation new deal, formed by Willard
w. Beatty, director Of Indian educa-
ton, with enthusiasm.
Mr.. Mitchell has been superintend-
ent of the Poplar city schools for the
last 81 years. He Is a pioneer in the
movement of Indians education. In
1916 there were Is Indians enrolled in
the public schools. At the present time
out of a total enrolment Of SIG, $50
are. Indian boys and. girls. The success
Of the movement at Poplar has been
proved by the many Indian graduates
who are now holding responsible posi-

That the Sioux tribe appreciates MI.

FROGS LEG STOPS
UP WATER FAUCET
ICACIES VIA ITS DRINKING
. SYSTEM

A frogs leg in a blue plate lunch
Is quite a delicacy, but a frogs leg
in a water faucet is quite another
thing. At least, that's the opinion
of Mrs. Austin Hooper Of Helena.
1t seems that Mrs. Hooper was wash
ing dishes or doing some household
chore that required water, but the
water was too hot. Thinking to cool
it off, she placed the pan under the
cold-water faucet IN her home and
turned the tap. She was answered by
a gurgle-but water refused to come.
Looking at the faucet closely, she
noticed a dark object sticking partially
out, and so she grasped the object and
pulled.
Imagine my surprise when the OBJ
tect turned out to be the leg of q
frog" Mrs. Hooper explained.
Despite the discovery Of the frogs
leg, the water still refused to flow
forth when she turned the faucet tap.
So Mrs. Hooper called the Helena water
call, unjointed the pipe at her request
and located the rest Of the frog.
Now the cold water in the Hooper
kitchen flows freely again. And Mrs.
Hooper Is torn between that sh1very
feeling that accompanies such an ex-
per1ence and the desire to laugh It off
as an amusing incident.
The rest Of the frogs leg story is
n Of conjecture. Some critics feel
the incident is hardly worthy Of praise
and others-probably the gourmets OF
the group-feel the water company
should capitalize on its ability to fur
nish a delicacy with every turn Of the
tap.

New ~" D0rmitory
Will Cost $15O,OOO

Crowded accommodations and in
creasing enrolment have resulted in
the Montana university being given
authority to go ahead with plans for
the erection of a new dormitory to
ficials announced recently. Permission
to advertise for bids was given by the
Montana board of education at its
meeting a few days ago. The permis-
sion placed a limit of $4,000 on the
total cost.
The architects will be Kirkemo and
Van Teylingen. The new building will
be a part Of a dormitory quadrangle
The architects are to start making
detailed plans at once. If financing
arrangements are completed, it is likely
that advertising for bids will start just
after the middle Of May. Construction
can then be begun early in June.

Cities and towns Of Montana are prohibited

General Freebourn has held in an opinion
rendered. at the request Of City Attorney
Peter M. Rigg Of Havre. The inquiry was
whether the law passed by the recent legis-
lature took hickey games and trade stimu-
cities and towns could issue licenses for
them. The attorney general holds that the
new law empowers county treasurers to
license the games but not cities and towns.

Washington, March 17.-(AP)-Jus-

over whether any Supreme Court JUS

he would be invited to appear.
