BADLY INJURED

(KNS)-Mrs. Marian jackson of
Boston, well known and attractive
younger matron, was seriously injured
about her eyes when a gas stove she
was using in her kitchen suddenly ex-
ploded the last week in June. The
explosion, said to be due to a defective
gas attachment has seriously injured
Mrs. Jackson's left eye; so much Sc
that a delicate operation is to be per
formed on July s to save the sight of
the eye.
Many of Mrs. Jackson's friends were
shocked when it was learned that this
beautiful colored young woman might
be manned for life. And it is hoped
that a young woman who was one of
the first women in Boston to qualify
as an Z. s. Mail clerk will not have to
give up her lucrative position because
of the injury to her eye.

Bette Davis Coming
In Her Greater Role

AS the heroine of Dark Victory"
the Warner Bros picture opening
at the Kootenai Theatre Sunday,
Bette Davis enacts what she herself
considers the finest part she has
ever portrayed in the course of the
brilliant career that has established
her individually as the greatest ac-
tress on the screen today.
The role is so unlike any that
Bette has ever done before and the
picture itself is SO far from the
beaten track of banal, trite theatre
ca formula that it is likely to create
more comment and discussion than
any production which has come
from Hollywood in many a day.
1t is poignantly tender love
story, one of the saddest and yet
bravest tales ever told. On its face
it is an up-toldate minute story
about hard and brittle modern peo-
pie, but under that bright surface
it is a narrative of elemental emo
tons as old as the world itself.
The girl portrayed by Bette is
the gay and popular leader of a
hard-riding, hard drinking social
set. There is nothing of the spoiled
heiress about her. however, for she
is presented as thoroughly like
able modern miss.
Also March of Time, on the past
40 glorious years of the screen.

|. &C. To Permit
Lower Oil Rates

HELENA.-The state railroad
and public service commission, in
cooperation with four Montana oil
refining companies, has filed a brief
with the interstate commerce COM
mission urging the bureau to grant
the Great Northern railroads re-
quest to reduce freight rates on re-
fined petroleum products shipped
from refineries in the northern part
of the state to Spokane.
The Great Northern has asked for
permission to reduce its rates on
the products from between So and
SO cents per 100 pounds to 80 cents.
The line proposed to put the reduc-
ton into effect last April, but was
held up by an Investigation by the
l. c. c.
Members of the rail board, Austin
b Middleton, Horace F. Casey and
Paul T. Smith, said the reduction
is necessary to enable Montana re-
finers to compete with California
refiners in the Spokane market.
