Forsakes Gangster Roles

Shattering every precedent for
dramatic frankness, "The' Story of
DR.. Ehrlich's Magic Bullet" starring
Edward G. Robinson, will be the
Sunday and Monday attraction at
the Kootenai Theatre. Contrary to
what might be expected from the
title and the presence of Robinson
at the head of the cast, the new
film is not gangster picture.
Now comes Warner Brothers most
sensational film, THE Story of DR..
Ehrlich's Magic Bullet"l Forged in
the white-hot fires of one-man's
courage, the magic bullet is man.
kinds strangest weapon, and the
story of its discovery is one of the
most heroic ever told. In telling
it, the producers have opened up
an entirely new vista in thrilling
screen entertainment.
Edward C. Robinson's role is en-
tirely foreign to anything he has
ever before done on the screen. AS
Dr. Enrich who was as we'll known
in his country as Thomas Edison

County Commissioners Urge
Employment of Local Labor

The following letter addressed to
the contractor on the Eureka-Rex-
ford road project, seeks to assure
employment of local labor. The
letter reads.
June 6, 1910
Mr.. Frank j. Haas
Contractor
Great Falls, Montana
Dear Mr.. Haas.
We were pleased to receive the
information that the contract for
the Rexford- Rondo- Eureka road
project had been awarded to you.
We have worked very hard to
get this project finally assured, and
we do hope you have no connec-
tions which will result in ieopardiz-
ing the chances for competent local
workmen to obtain employment from
you. We feel the labor should be Sc
cured, insofar as possible, from
within the county, although not
necessarily from the particular dis
trict, and there is ample common
labor, probably also enough skilled
labor, available here.
Trusting this will receive your
favorable consideration, and that
our relations will be pleasant and
agreeable,
Yours very truly,
RAY c. FROST.

miSsIoners

Gun shrugged his shoulders.
II don't know. We shall have to

Anyway. we're certainly being
done very proud at present. A first

Perhaps" grunted Gun. But

Lunch was a light meal and the
dinner was excellent. The bottle of
port they drank afterward was
something to remember.
'"No wonder our grandfathers
stored up supplies of govt for u.s."
was Tommys comment.
Afterward they lounged In the
lounge, drinking.
They were just thinking of retir-

knock at the door, and Trent en-
tered. He was wearing a dinner
jacket, and had the air Of man
who has been doing himself well.
Gun thought: Were not the only
ones who have luxury on this
island" and as he thought II little
idea came to him.
Trent chatted Of trivialities for
few moments. Then Gun said.
suddenly:

stroyers-".
What's that ?" Trent started,
and his slightly flushed face paled.
What the hell do you mean, Gun

Gun smiled gently.

But l wasn't quite certain wheth-
er this place was an island. Now

Trent was annoyed.

Time will answer that uues-

The following morning Gun was
again the first up. He was enjoying
the sunshine and a cigaret on the
lawn when he heard sounds Of al

strollsd back and found Tommy

strolled casually into the bunga-

1t was Tommy who answered.
"Of course" he called, and then,
as Trent entered, he went on:
Question for question. Can you

"Of course" said Gun. Have

He pushed the box across. Unob-
trustively, he was studying Trent's
face and manner, and could see
that he was annoyed. but was try
Ing to hide it. Gun guessed the rea-
son, and the mans next words
proved him correct.
