Transfers Activities
To Southern Idoho

A letter from the board of di-
rectors to stockholders of the Gla-
cier Silver Lead Mining Company
says, among other things:
''Your company has, for long
time, been considering the advisa-
bility Of transferring its activities
to a property with higher grade
ores than the present property near
Libby, Mont, whose ores have prov
en- too low-grade to yield a salts
factory profit on the basis of pres
ent metal prices.
"Your directors are pleased to
announce at this time that after in
vestigating number of properties,
they have secured on a lease and
bond agreement high-grade gold,
silver and antimony property in the
famous Silver City area of southern
Idaho. The property and its ores
have been examined and recon-
mended to your company by some
OF the most able mining men in
the Northwest, and their reports,
together with assays and mill tests,
will be forwarded to you within the
near future"

It's Unemployment
Checks Remain
Uncoshed

The Montana Unemployment
Compensation Commission would
like to know what became of ITS
uncashed checks for a total of
$l,727 which have been sent out to
unemployed workers for benefit
payments since July, 1899, when
payments began. That workers re-
ceived these checks, there can be
little doubt, why they did not cash
them remains the mystery. Barclay
Craighead, chairman. of the COM
mission, has given instructions to
remind every three months recipi-
ents of checks who fail to cash
them. Hereafter, if checks remain
uncashed at the end of one year,
they will be cancelled.
These IT'S uncashed checks are a
small fraction of the 579,005 checks
that have been sent out A survey
of 200 checks cashed by claimants
shows that 68 were cashed at banks,
IS in retail stores, rs with individ-
uals, IL at beer parlors, at garages,
6 at hotels. S at restaurants, 3 at
cigar stores, and 8 at miscellaneous
places of business. It is evident that
benefit payments are largely spent
for food, shelter, and clothing

Famous Novel To Be
Shown in Technicolor
"a

A story which thrilled millions o,
readers as novel and became /
classic in contemporary times, viii
be unfolded on the screen wher
Paramounts Technicolor film yer,
sion Of Harold Bell Wright's famous
novel. THE Shepherd of the Hills,
begins Sunday and Monday at TIL,
Kootenai theatre.
Wright's great story of the Ozarl
mountain folk has already sold more
than million copies, and its com
ing before the public in film form
marks screen event.
Paramount chose three stars @ol
proved acting ability and popu-
larity, John Wayne, Betty Field and
Harry Carey, to enact the emotional
leading roles. Wayne is remem.
bered for his rugged good looks and
the splendid job Of acting he did al
the adventurous gun-fighter ir
tStagecoach." and the haunting por-
trayal OF seamon he gave in .sT'he
Long Voyage Home"
Miss Field, as Sammy Lane, the
romantic wild girl of the mountains
plays opposite Wayne.
1t will no daubt be a joy to the
readers of the novel to learn that
Harry Carey is to be seen in the
role Of Daniel Hewitt, who is 1.-THE
Shepherd Of the Hills" Carey, vet
eran OF scores of film characterize
tons, is easy to visualize as a
splendid Shepherd Incidentally,
to those who don't know the story,
don't get the idea that this is a
picture about sheep raising. 1t
isn't. It's lusty, tumultuous tale
OF a young girl who withholds her
love from her unruly young noun
tain sutton because of a restless,
violent urge he has to find and kill
the man he believes had destroyed
his mothers life.
Henry Hathaway, famed director
of THE Trail of the Lonesome
Pine" handled the megaphone on
"The Shepherd of the Hills With
the scenic grandeur of the beauti-
full Ozarks as background for the
new film, Hathaway is dealing with
an element he has demonstrated he
knows. 1t is not too much to ex-
pect some really hreathtaking color
shots, along with some first-rate
acting, with Hathaway in charge
of the magic Technicolor camera.

Beover Help in
Stream Restoration

In his talk at the Libby CONNER
cial Club meeting Saturday night.
Elmer Philips. superintendent of
state fisheries, spoke of work now
being carried on to restore streams
that had been damaged by floods.
1t has since been pointed out that
beaver are the best possible re-
storers of natural conditions along
streams. Their dams slow down
the stream flow, create pools, per-
init plant and other kinds of foods
to develop.
The stream flowing out of Loon
lake, north of Libby, is cited as an
example of such work by beaver.
This stream has been what might
be called ''terraced" by beaver dams
one dam after another. The flow
would ordinarily be very rapid, but
the dams have slowed it down and
created numerous large pools. Sim
liar work is going on wherever the
beaver have gained foothold. This
is another good reason why the busy
little engineers should be properly
protected from too wanton Rolling.

States by the Norwegian Lecture
Bureau of Washington, D. G., and is
drawing great crowds wherever he
speaks. He is taking no collection
nor asking for any money.
The Rev. Mr.. r. .. Haakonson
of Standpoint accompanied Lieut..
Strornholt here and explained that
the Norwegians of America are
hoping to be ready to help their
beleagured people as soon as the
war ends. Starvation and cold will
have weakened the whole people
and they will be in sore need. They
are hoping to raise 81 1000, 900 SO as
to bring relief quickly when the
country is free. Now is the time
to give SO that it will be ready the
moment peace comes. He said also
good warm clothing would be very
much appreciated and the people OF
Libby who are always generous
and sympathetic are asked to help
in any way they can to relieve the
suffering Of this courageous country.
Mr.. Haakonson at the end Of the
lecture invited anyone to ask any
question he would like to have
answered. Lieut.. Stromholt an
swered in Norwegian because he
was more at ease in that tongue.
Mr. Haakonson translated.
So much interest was manifested
that questions could scarcely be an
swered fast enough.
Norway Fought Bitterly
One gentleman said his feelings
had been hurt when people here
said Norway did not seem to try to
defend herself.
Lieut.. Stromholt emphatically
and forcefully denied that accusa-
ton, saying Norway did everything
she could with the strength she pos
sessed to defend herself; that no
other country had put forth the eff
fort she did then and still continues
to do. All the young men that
could find passage out Of the coun-
try have gone to England and Scot
land and from there joined the
Canadian air force and the army in
England and Canada; rs, 900 sailors
on 800 Norwegian ships are now
carrying supplies and oil to the
allies. Two thirds OF all the oil the
Allies are now getting Is SEEING car
ried in Norwegian ships.
Asked IL Sweden had tried to
help, he said they hoped for Swed-
ems help and it would have come,
but Sweden, too. was SO little pre-
pared they could do little. They
think when the opportune hour ar
rives she will come to their aid
He said they were refraining from
killing Quisling because of the
dreadful reprisals the Nazis would
make on their innocent people.
This fine young man will long
be remembered TN Libby and all
will hope that his courageous peo-
pie will soon be free again.

with orders not to retreat. A typical
section of the front line was de-
scribed as having a Red army man,

Mass Meeting Held.
For the moment Leningrad held
the spotlight Mass meetings of
encouragement to the defenders of
this former czarist capital were held
throughout the country. The work
ers of Kiev, a second major German
objective, sent message to the Len
ingrad workers urging them to de-
fend their city as they did in the
civil war.
Every available citizen was help
ing to erect Notifications along its
approaches; inside the metropolis
streets were being barricaded and
homes and factories were being
made into strongholds in which de-
tenders vow to die rather than sur
render.
The Reds army communique to-
day said simply that during the
night "our troops fought fierce bat
ties with the enemy along the entire
front" indicating there was no major
change in positions, but Marshal
Voroshilovs new appeal to the peo-
pie and press dispatches showed
that Leningrad's. position was no
better.
Latest advices said that the Rus
slams had recaptured nine villages
in the last two days in the central
sector, shattered the German l6lst
infantry division and seized much
equipment.
An order signed today by Joseph
Stain as defense commissar pro-
vided that decorations be awarded
to stretcher-bearers and male nurses
for carrying wounded from the
battlefield.
