Being a Census Enumeration
Habit for Former Momtanam

reau didn't insist that the people west
of the divide in August's territory be
counted. There were not many of them
August recalls that while he was
an enumerator in 1920 he took basket
of fruit to family living in a cabin
far back in the mountains. The family
had boy of IL and a girl of who
rode 16 miles a day to school on the
same horse. Ten years later August
brought this family another basket Of
fruit when he was helping to count
Uncle Sans subjects.
The 1880 census, August remarked,
was a gloomy job because of hard
times and the reverses that had come
to many people.
This year August made the count
near San Fernando reservoir. The area
included citrus growers and laborers,
motion picture folk with palatial resi-
dences and people living in shacks.
He found the work interesting, the
population being quite in contrast with
the ranchers and mountain people Of
the Augusta region.

Being a census enumerator has be-
come a habit with Montana August,
old-timer of the Augusta locality, now
a resident of southern California.
Three times in Montana he helped
make the population count and this
year he had the job in the Los An
geles area, according to the Los An
geleS News.
Decades ago August was a rancher
near Augusta. For years he was justice
of the peace He took his family to
California a few years ago.
August had the census job in Mon
tana in 1910, 1920 and 1880. He Is now
70 years old but is looking forward,
the News intimates, on being an EMU
merator again in 1850.
While he was working on the 1910
census the snow was deep and he had
to travel by horseback and snowshoeS.
His district included an area on the
west slope of the main range of the
Rockies The snow made it impossible
for him to cross the mountains. In
view of the situation the census bu-

'Desiry Rides Again Plays for Last Times at
 Local Theatre

One of the most imposing casts of the season, headed by Marlene Dietrich and James Stewart, will be seen in Universals "Destry Rides Again. ending tonight at the Capi- tol Theatre.
 Miss Dietrich in the role of belle of the old west, and Stewart in the title role, appear with host of important players including Charles Winninger, Mischa Auer Brian Donlevy, Irene Hervey, Una Merkel, Allen Jenkins, Warren Fly mer, Samuel s. Hinds, Billy Gill; bert and many others.
 For her newest role, Miss Die trich portrays a gusty frontier en- tertainer, character that con- trasts sharply with her recent screen appearances. She sings, dances, fights and makes love in typical western fashion, and she rolls her own cigarettes.
 James Stewart has the first out door role of his career and one that logically follows his outstand- ing performance in MT. Smith Goes to Washington.
 Joe Pasternak, the man respon- sible for all the Deanna Durbin and Gloria Jean successes, is the producer of "Destry Rides Again.
