The young people can boast of
having performed with more SYM
phonies in their short career to-
gether than any other group ex-
elusive OF ballet. This can be ex-
planned when the two begin to
discuss music. Says Mr.. Fitz-Si-
mons, I'VE have a profound re-
spect for the music to which we
dance"
Studied Abroad.
Dancing since she was 10, Miss
Winslow has studied in Munich,
Salzburg, and Spain as well as the
United States. Mr.. Fitz-Simons be-
gan dancing six years ago while

gins at 8 o'clock will include three
duets and two solos each. To-
gether they will dance Clique" to

SAVE DEMOCRACY

Apparently a great many people
never become alarmed about De-
mocracy until they hear the crack
of rifles. During the last decade
there has been a studied, deliberate
attempt to socialize the electric
light industry of the U. S. Govern
ment ownership is definite FEEDER
al policy. Every possible effort has
been made to extend this policy.
Publicly subsidized electric plants
dot the country from coast to coast
for which the government (the
people, has obligated itself for
nearly S2,0OO,O00,OO of borrowed
money to date Each plant is {
threat to free enterprise, and un'
dermines democracy yet public
opposition has been dormant.
If government would take over
the e-ectric utility industry anc
then stop, the average citizen might
not have undue cause to worry. I'm.
fortunately such would not be the
case. Expanding bureauacy never
halts of its own will If given the
opportunity it will gradually ex-
tinguish the institution of private
ownership, and when that has been
accomplished, individual liberty
and representative government will
follow. Government ownership and
free enterprise cannot live peace
ably, side by side.
During the past decade in the
United States, the public versus free
enterprise battle has ragged with
ever increasing intensity. There
has been no gunfire, but carrying
out the principle involved, namely,
government domination of the in

HOUSING DAIRY COWS

BOHEMIAN, Oct. 16 - Right now
is a good time for the dairyman to
check up on the housing facilities
for his cows to maks sure that mis-
herd will be comfortable during tlis.
cold winter months.
To do her best, the dairy coy
must be housed in winter, says J
o. Tretsven, extension dairy spe:
ialist at Montana State college Milk
flow is reduced when cows are ex-
posed to cold, stormy, wet weather.
Barns that are drafty or excessive
ely warm and poorly ventilated are
undesirable. Cows kept under such
conditions suffer more from the
cold when turned out for exercise
and water than when the barn is
well ventilated and kept at a tenn
perature of around As to IS degrees
The essential features of a good
barn are comfort and cleanliness
for the animals and convenience
in doing chores. Suitable stalls, well
bedded with clean straw, are impor-
tant. Modern barns provide app
roxmately four square feet of win
dow light and 500 cubic feet Of
space per cow. If the barn is an old
one, sweeping down the cobwebs
and then whitewashing helps in
lighting up the structure and max
ing it more clearly.
Another desirable feature for
housing cows is large shed ada
cent to the barn. This will give the
animals protection against -seveDe
weather when they are turned out
to exercise. It ID also good pract-
ice, Tretsven added, to have this
shed bedded with straw to give the
cows a clean, dry place to lie down.

Worlds LATEST

The sloth lives upside down.
Hooklike claws on his feet keep him
suspended in tree, where he eats
leaves and fruit. Often he never
gets out of the tree on which he is
born, writes correspondent to the
Washington Post. If something
forces him to quit his home, he
merely slides to the end of limb,
stretches out foot ard waits for
the wind to blow him near enough
another tree to hook it. Sloths are
the despair of those who try to do
mesticate them. One owner, tired
of his almost motionless pet, held
1t under a tree to liberate it. It was
more than an hour before the crea-
ture shifted its feet enough to grip
the limb they leaned against.

first time it was revealed how Tom
Wallace. vice-president of an ad-
vertising agency, also happens to
be Uncle Walter, the keeper of
Uncle Walters Dog House pro-
gram, heard over the NBC network
on Tuesday nights.
Glacier County chief., 1939-10-20

Early this year, the idea for the
Dog House show struck the agency
officials, and without waiting for
the ink on the trial script to dry
they hoped train to lay the idea
before the prospective sponsor.
Hurriedly rounding up a cast and
orchestra, the ad men got the show
ready for addition for the prospect.
But the show was minus an actor
who could play the role of Uncle
Walter, key figure in the cast. In
desperation, the officials auditioned
themselves and decided that their
colleague. Tom Wallace, would
have to do the part for the sponsor
addition. He did, and the prospect
liked the show well enough to buy it
providing that Tom Wallace. whose
voice fitted the part like kid glove,
should continue to be Uncle Walter.
To be an ad agency executive or
a radio star is not too unusual, but
to be an ad agency executive and

Hon. Robert T. Secrest, congress
man from this district, will vote for
the arms embargo. In a statement
he says that he voted for the orig

ed to keep this country out of war
and felt that the surest way to do it
was to remain neutral when other
nations went to war In June when
the question was up in congress to
amend the act to allow any nation
to buy arms in the United States,
he voted against changing the law
He states that he desires peace
for our nation and still feels that
we fit with war if we sell the i'm
plements of war. He also says
that there is moral question in
volved and that he does not intend
to lull his conscience to sleep by
any alarm, excuse or pretext: and
that if his vote made it possible to
send guns, munitions, bombs, etc.,
to Europe, he would feel a personal
responsibility for every soldier that
was killed, thinking that one Of our
bombs did it.
