fast as your backs and ends? We
haven't seen many Hubbards in foot
ball. Or Fat Henrys either.
The 1910 rush may break all rec
ords, both among the colleges and
the pros. Sport remains the big
mind distractor and football leads
all other competitions in this re-
Spect.
l can't recall when the college
game had so many strong teams
scattered all over the map-Cornell,
Princeton, Fordham, Tennessee, AL
ALBANIA, Tulane, Texas A. and M,
Southern Methodist, Ohio State, Min
nesota, Michigan, Notre Dame,
Southern California, Washington,
Duke, Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebras-
ka, L. S. u, Texas, T. c. u, Geor-
gia Tech and Santa Clara. And
even this list is only a partial roll
call.
There should be at least IS excep-
tionally strong college teams this
year and they cover all known and
explored sections of the map.
The Football Phenomenon
Pound for pound, one of the great
football players and one of the most
amazing is 150-pound Dave O'Brien
of Bert Bells Philadelphia Eagles.
Little Dave has one record that
is almost beyond belief. As 1 recall
the vital statistics O'Brien's slight
frame has never left football game
through injuries in five years of col
lege and pro play. He finished three
years with 7. C. us hard schedule
minus a dent in his small but solid
system. And he was always be-
tween a so and Commute man.
He was supposed to be too small
for the pro game. But in place of
being rumpled into shapeleSs mass
Little Dave went along passing and
running and kicking without any
trouble.
You might ask Steve Owen of the
n. Y. Giants about him.
lone of the best l ever saw"
Steve said, smart running his
team, a fine ball carrier and one Of
the best of all passers. And above
all as tough as green hickory when
it comes to taking his share Of being
knocked about"
O'Brien completed 40 passes in
his last two pro games year ago.
That ought to be record-and l
think it is.
Star Running Backs
A group of football coaches were
talking about the star running backs
of football, apart from the power
house delegation.
In the discussion my top nomina-
ton was Cliff Battles, and no one
cared to dispute the pick. Cliff Bat
Ties and Red Grange were two Of
the first nominations.
Cliff will tell you he was rarely
even Jared. Extremely fast and
slippery, he had a way of avoiding
apy shock tackling. No one could
pick an opening quicker.

Cattle Lice

Cattle can be relieved Of lice by
brushing linseed oil or crankcase
oil completely over the animals, &C.

ciplined children is often
L only that of a badly-dis-
ciplined mother.
Spoiled children grow up to be
reasonable human beings. At
ten or twelve or even earlier
they come to their senses, real
ize that there is no gain in spit
ting, screaming, fighting, kick
ing when anything disappoints
them. Then they merely smile
when some aunt or cousin, re-
Numbering nursery days, says
half-amusedly, "My but you
were the spoiled baby!"
School and contact with other chill
dren are elements that quickly edu-
cate the spoiled child. He or she
wants to be popular, wants to be like
the rest; teacher has no time for
Individual tantrums and sulks.
Mama may 60 on indulging dear
little Cecil or Mabel for few years,
but life isn't as tender as Mama.
And it is the punishment of the I'M
disciplined mother that her own
child very soon comes to regard her
softness with Indifference and con-
tempt.
No, it's never a child's fault that
il is not trained, that it is allowed
to make a perfect pest of itself,
that it spits out food, screams when
Mother leaves the room for a mo-
ment, interrupts, is untruthful,
leases, answers rudely, disobeys,
destroys. Some children do all of
these things naturally; all children
DO some of them. It is entirely a
question of the mothers willingness
to train them that decides how long
such habits shall endure.
through her own weakness the ex-
quisite joy Of her children's first
years. They are to her a constant
annoyance and responsibility, with
brief moments of pride and affection
scattered along the hard baby years
Of their lives. She has not the cour-
age to deny the bowling five-months
old baby as mid-meal the feeding
he spurned at his regular bottle time.
A few months later she explains that
ne always screams that way with
any other guardian but herself. That
a few sharp spanks on a fat baby
leg would save not only herself but
the baby hours of pain and tears
doesn't occur to her. She doesn't
know that the tone of a voice will
discipline six-months old baby far
more effectively than a good sound
Whipping or denial of the circus will
influence a five-year-old tyrant.
A Mean Disposition.
Not long ago a four-year-old boy
visited us. Obedience was no part
Of his plan. 1t took his mother five
hours daily to coax three meals into
him. Meat had to be cut fine; then
1t was too fine. Was there another
chop? Milk had to be warmed; then
It was too warm. Twice in "a hours
he screamed for a full hour. He got
hold of matches. He threw kitten
into the pool. He cut an angle out
of the screen of door. He shrieked
until his father gave in, and swung
him much too high in the swing. He
wanted every child's toy; he sat
harding them jealousy. His small
fs&e already wears mean, sly, sus-
picious expression.
He will probably grow to be nice
enough boy, when he has learned
some bitter lessons at school. Les
sons not in the books. But mean
while the attitude Of his parents is
one of shame and concern, and it
seems q great pity that what could
be the source Of infinite pride and
joy to them Is destroyed.
For children can be made into
well-behayed, happy. seh-amusing.

POOR DISCIPLINE
CBen syndicate-wNu Service. ,

Kathleen Norris places the blame for
M-mdnnered children squareiy on the
shoulders Of their parents. No child j,
perfect, and the best.mannered uiH
hare occasional lapses, but the con.
sistentiy naughty or disobedienf child
is the result Of poor training. Miss Nor
ris points out that such child causes
his parents shame and concern uhen
he should be the source Of infinite
pride and joy.
Glacier County chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1931-1940, 1940-10-04

lovable little beings. They can be
trained into politeness and pleasant
ness. They will have their lapses,
of course. But if mother can steel
herself to a little heroism in the be-
ginning; if she is not afraid to es-
tablish few rules of conduct, she
will win for herself some of the hap
piest years a woman can know.
All the baby authorities tell young
mothers that no child should be fed
for more than 20 minutes. When he
begins to dribble out the spinach,
or play with the bottle, or work food
about in his mouth in the manner
described by the disgusting word
"sloshing," he is having good time
at your expense. If you have the
courage to stop right then and re-
fuse him all food until the next feed
ing time, you won't have to repeat
the process more than three times.
One reason why many of us grew
to strength and stature years ago
was because our mothers, with ten,
eight, seven children to raise, didn't
have any time to waste on our infant
vagaries. Besides that, anyone who
wanted a second helping of pudding
had to make brisk work of the first
helping. Puddings, in the nineties,
vanished more quickly than they do
today, when we all pamper and coax
and fatter small appetites too much.
A Cure for RudenesS.
1.-THE one thing of which we had
to cure our child was rudeness,
writes a Kentucky mother. Don
was an adorable, well-behaved baby,
but at six he returned from his pri-
mary school ruder and noisler and
holder every day. We didn't mind
the boldness and noise, but to get
surly impatient answer from our
adored boy was too much. His IA
Their scolded, l sent him from the
room, refused lollipops, did every
thing could think of. All no use.
"This went on for three or four
months, and l began to feel that
had lost my friendly little compan-
ion forever, when an older mother
suggested a simple cure that she
said had worked miracle with her
sons. 1t was just to give the child
warning that a request or command
was to be made.
1--WE tried it, and our problem
vanished into thin air in less than a
week. Before asking Don anything,
or interrupting him in any way, his
father or l would say mildly, Don,
l am going to ask you in a minute
if YOU realize that it is bedtime, and
l would like a gentle answer Or,
Don, when I ask you If you want
more steak please say yes or no
nicely and quietly
From the first trial this worked
like a charm. 1t never once failed,
except when Big Donald and failed.
Instead of impatient rudeness, the
child began to listen and to consider.
He is still as wild as an Indian
when he is with the other boys. But
at home 1 have my gentleman
again.
Last night" the letter ends, "his
father happened to speak to him
abruptly and inconsiderately. Little
Don smiled at big Don and asked
pleasantly, Would you like to ask
me that again, Dad?' His father was
honest enough to answer yes, and
the question was repeated. 1t
seemed to me then that all three of
US had learned a valuable lesson,
and pass it along"

Fred BennIon, executive secre-

manic, commission and city man

Helena Liens club recently, assert

over other forms by the National

tkorfEkes interested I'm efficient

In comparing the three types. Ben
Mon said the chief defects OF the
aldermanic plan are:
/. Difficulty Of electing mayors who

political machine.
3. Lack Of citywide consciousness on
the part OF to 10 aldermen elected
from 4 10 8 wards.
Commission Form
OF the commission form, nov used
In Helena, Bennion said, "it was first
used In Galveston, Tex, in 1900 when
a tidal wave brought disaster and re-
ullired a less cumbersome form than
that Of the aldermanic. It's apparent
simplicity gave the plan quick vogue
but later, after trial, many cities dis
carded 1t and more are doing so every
year."
He said the National Municipal
leaRue criticizes the commission form
on the following grounds:
1. The form lends itself easily TO
political manipulation and does not
provide successfully for competent de-
partment heads or other personnel
and Is so conductive to buck passing
that although the voter needs to make
only three choices at the polls he
does not know whom TO blame for bad
government or praise for good.
2. Makes no organiza tional dtstinc-
ton between the policy making flInc-
ton OF government and the admins
trative function.
3. Failure to provide an executive
head Of the government and no method
Of co-ordinating activities of depart
ments; failure TO provide a check on
governmental spending since the Of
ficials who vote the funds are also
the ones who spend them.
City Manager Form
Nearly 500 cities and towns, he said,
now use the city manager form, which
Ia exemplified In Montana by Boze-
man, the only city which uses 1t.
-Four out of five cities which draw
up new charters these days adopt the
city manager plan," he said.
Advantages of the system were listed
by the speaker as: The manager Is
chief executive responsible for all adj
work: commission has
power TO dismiss the city manager If
his work should prove unsatisfactory

from business men of cities through |

'orm Is used. The letters were unan- l

on the state highway patrol frequency
(the patrol now has 43 cars equipped
with short-wave radio out Of q total
66). and the patrolmen picking up
the call In the vicinity Of the accident
will proceed to the scene.
All police radio In the state operates
on 1906 kilocycles. hence IL the acct

Flooding Cut Bank

Recoveries in Cut Bank field have
scarcely begun. The main oil area has
little gas pressure and virtually no known
hydrOstatic pressure to force the oil into
wells drilled. This is a sand field and
therefore subject to application of gas
drive and water drive. In the not dis
tant future, operators will start the in
PRODUCTION of gas into key wells and by
charging the oil sands with gas under
high pressure will force the oil into
circle of wells nearby. Thereafter they
will introduce water into the sand in
place of gas and Will drive the remain
ing oil ahead of the water into the wells,
into which the pressure will find escape.
These methods, when applied IN Mon
tana, will be fully proven and establish
ed in other fields. There will be no piOn-
eering in methods in Montana, any more
than there Will be pioneering In methods
of rotary drilling. Rotary tools have not
been necessary in Montana thus far be-
cause the shallow drilling has offered
easy going for cable tools. But when it
comes to penetrating the Madison lime,
rotary tools must be used-equipmen
perfected in other fields where 10000
foot drilling has become routine. We
