Few people will laugh at a fu-

Ognize that on such an occasion a
laugh is definitely out of place.
Would that more people would
remember that a funeral is not the
only place where a laugh out of
turn is decidedly embarrassing,
Earring and discOmfOrting to those
who must hear it. 1t marks the
offender as careless, offensive and
aggravatingly ignorant.
This has been called to our atten-
ton many times in past months

If there is any doubt of the per-

its base in the unwillingness of the
average citizen to take the little
trouble required to lend his aid

Poetic Thoughts
Dads Day
By MORRIS GIBBS, Sr.

Another year has rolled around
For Dads day and we have found
That Dad at last is recognized
As some kind of a household prize.
He goes to work every day
While his children are at school or play
Makes no difference if he doesn't feel right,
Dad keeps the job, for things are tight
He'll sacrifice new garments for his family to wear,
Put that old blue serge which is handled with care
For it's shiny in places where wear is most seen,
And obvious to gazing eyes that it's
He has his dreams of what he'd like to do,
See that his children all go through school,
Even depression can't make him shirk
His duty if he always work.
Our reward of gratitude to Dad is shown,
By the way remember when are grown,
That sometime We'll be in his shoes,
And then we'll realize his just dues.
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1938-06-17

lections he has made after careful
study and with the interests of his
own people in mind.
You may rest assured these rec
concentrations are Influenced not
by party ties, not by whatever has
been spent with this paper for ad-
vertisement, nor for any reason of
personal bias, but only as the rec
Ords of men and women have given
impress of honesty, fair-minded-
ness and the ability and the will to
perform, will their names find in
clusiOn in this list.
But in any case vote. Even if
you make an unwise choice-vote.
But if you want your vote to be
helpful to your group put some
thought on whom you bestow your
endorsement.

Goats Around Horses

Having goats around them does
not keep thoroughbreds and harness
horses more healthy, by preventing
disease among them. This super
stition, commonly held by race
horse owners throughout the coun-
try, goes back to the Middle ages
when peasants believed the devil
took the form of a goat when he
visited, and kept goats in their
stables, which were usually built
into the house, to act as receptacles
for evil spirits attempting to get
into the residence.

COUNTY TO REGISTER
POOR FUND
BEFORE GETTING AID

Counties must issue registered
warrants against anticipated
poor fund revenue before they
can secure grants-in-aid from
the general relief fund of the
state public welfare department
according to a unanimous de-
clslon OF the state supreme
court.
The decision was given in the
case brought by the Silver Bow
county board of commissioners
asking the supreme court to
direct the welfare department
to give the county a S28, 900
grant for the month ended Au-
gust 10.
In its petition to the court,
the county board said it's poor
fund was exhausted and that
direct relief could not be given
to 1,645 persons listed by the
board as requiring immediate
assistance.
Attorney General Harrison J..
Freebourn had ruled that coun-
ties could not issue registered
warrants against their poor
funds, and that the state must
give grants-in-aid to counties
with depleted poor funds.
Answering the Silver Bow
boards petition, the welfare de-
paltment pointed out that its
funds will be insufficient TO
cover all needs between the
present and the end of the fis-
cal year, March l. The board
also said county poor funds will
be replenished by tax collections
in November.
The courts decision was two
fould-in addition to holding
the counties must register war
rants against their poor funds,
it held the suit was brought
prematurely inasmuch as the
welfare board had not been Civ
en- the opportunity to consider
the demand made by Silver Bow
county.
The decision said persons
given relief by registered war;
rants, and that it is proper that
the county make appropriation
to take care OF the discount.

FARMERS HOLD WHEAT

Montana Farmers sold only
about 20 per cent of the wheat
they harvested up to Saturday,
apparently intending to hold
the grain for a price advance,
according to reports received by
John T. Kelly, chief of the
grain division of the state de-
partment of agriculture.
Kelly said his reports showed
a large part of the grain being
held is stored on farms, while
many farmers have put their
wheat in elevators preparatory
to getting loans from the gov
eminent.
Most of the states 442 licen-
sed elevators, with capacities
totallng 1854 bushels are filled
already, according to reports to
Kelly. Many elevators have
shipped the grain to storage
terminals outside the state with
waivers signed by owners.
