Sdge and Soil
BY Mrs. Paul Scholler

It was an enjoyable Thanks
giving for the family. Since the
grandparents couldn't come to
see us, we all went to see them
every member of the family,
including the dog.
My mothers family is south
ern, and when blooded pacing
horses and fox terriers were IN
style, there were always stables
and kennels of these animals.
Dad Is a natural animal lover.
So the dog really was a well
come guest. I wouldn't try 1t
on anyone else.
On the way we met and
passed people Thanksgiving
bent. A high chair fastened to
the back of the car indicated
: that the youngest of that fam
lily was going to enjoy the fes-
tivities.
The visit was not all roses,
however. I called on a very
dear friend whose face was
etched with lines that only the
Supreme One can soften, but
that never can he erased. My
friends loved husband and
companion for 80 years was
snatched away from her eleven
weeks ago, just as she stepped
to the door to call supper. He
was a fine horseman, and just
,rAhy that tug remained fas-
tened, we'll never know. The
only solace she could find in
the big house was as the Lifted
her very lovely granddaughter,
Mary 10, from her basket and
held her close.
Report card day is always a
great day for the youngsters.
They are always elated or low
over marks. I doubt if they
realize how important these
marks may be later on, how
much they will mean as the
measure of accomplishment.
At present they are all too
concerned about the people who
give these marks.
These mellow winter days
make one want to go to the
river. There are all of natures
snow bound things. 1t is a fine
time of year to harvest your
thoughts and cast out any
Weedly, tenancious ideas that
might have tried to root them
selves.
It is a fine time to cultivate
any charm that might be ours,
and resolve to be good neigh
borS to one another.

COUNTIES ARE N
S57 500 GENERAL AID

Thirteen Montana counties
were granted general relief al
lotments totaling $57,500 by the
state public welfare board last
week when it was shown the
counties are financially unable
to bear their direct relief loads
alone.
The counties and grants -
Cascade, $4,000; Deer Lodge,
s. 1000; Chouteau, $500; Flat
head, 81, 500; Jefferson, 81 1000;
Lincoln, 81, 500; McCone, $500;
Missoula, $4,000; Ravalli, ST 900;
Richland, $500; Sheridan.
$500; Silver Bow, $4,000, and
Valley, $4,000.
Administrator I. M. Brandjord
announced that the board had
transferred money from other
welfare department accounts to
the old-age pension fund to
make up an expected $4,000
def. cit in the pension fund. He
pointed out that the last legiS-
lature allocated 100000 yearly
as the states share of old-age
pensions, but that amount is
approximately $4,000 short OF
the amount needed.
The welfare board has been
advised that the federal surplus
commodities corporation will
give Montana enough cotton
and ticking for 5000 full-size
mattresses to be made up by
W.P.A. workers throughout the
state.

The appointment of Alt M.

influence for peace was a fine

Don't be alarmed. That old
problem has faced so many
people that it will survive the
encounter.
Late calculations reveal that
our national debt figures out
at 1926 tor each unit of a pop
ulatlon of 100000 900. How nice
of Uncle Sam to bolster our
credit to that eXtent-those of
us who couldn I, without his
assistance, bolster it $2.96. Some
say it's all right, since the tax
payer will have to pay it. But

SHANDY FOR
CRIME NOT COMMITTED

Emmett Shandy of Powell
county was pardoned last week
and freed from the state peni-
Tertiary where he served a year
for stealing calves that appar-
emily were not stolen although
he confessed the theft.
Charged with stealing two
calves, Shandy admitted his
guilt and was sentenced to sew
en- years in the penitentiary at
Deer Lodge. The man supposed
to have lost the calves appeared
to claim them after they were
used as evidence, but could not
identify them and refused to
claim them.
Governor Roy E. Ayers reco-
mmended a full pardon for
Shandy and the state pardon
board approved the action.

He pleased the public most
with his small suite entitled
Animal Pictures" owing his
success less to the music itself,
which is unimportant, than to
his comment, which was often
amusing. He talks pleasantly
and with many an unexpected
turn of phrase. The overture to
Weber'S forgotten opera "Abu
HasSan," which opened the pro-
gram also went brilliantly, with
the requisite Hghtness and de-
licacy.
As his major assignment DR..
CAM chose the fifth Tschaikow-
sky symphony, not a difficult
work but grateful and musically.
Of great Importance in the Rus

Quoted with the greatest energy.
So emphatic was his beat, in
fact, that 1t became heavy, awk-
ward and inelastic. It is his
habit t oemphasize it with move
ments Of his head and his entire
body.
All Of this excess energy was
communicated to the players,
normally a group Of distinguish
ed by refinement and subtlety Of
nuance, qualities which they lost
for the moment under the pro
digious proddings Of DR.. CAM.
The alert sparkle Of the Weber
overture was forgotten. Proper
tions vanished in a general dull
ness, the product Of constant ex-
aggerationS in sorority. Even the
graceful waltz plodded.
For his solo DR.. CAM chose
the imaginative but musically
uneven fifth concerto of Saint
Saens, a work which needs the
virtuoso flair and a lively fan
tasy. Probably because Of his
labors with the baton, past and

One of the most attractive

too young for vocal maturity.
But she already has a command

The proposed addition to the

more than a paper defense against
a possible invasion Of this coun-
try and will remain so for the
next ten years, the Rev. Charles
e. Coughlin held today.
Speaking on the new navy bill
now before Congress, Father
Coughlin in his regular Sunday
radio broadcast pointed out the
impracticability of an armed
invasion of this country to sup
port his charge, and the needless
expenditure of a billion dollars
for new warships.
"Supposing Germany, Italy
and Japan combined decided to
invade America, have you
analyzed what would be the re-
qujrementS of these nations to
carry out their plans?" he
asked.
Granting that this combina-
tior of aggressors would have
available five hundred warships
and transports; granting that
each ship could transport $500
men; granting that all these
ships landed their military
forces at the same port and on
the same day, America would be
confronted with an enemy mum.
