George Gienger, who played guard
on University of Maryland's foot
ball team in 1899, has been ap-
pointed basket ball coach of Ken
sington Junior High School and his
charges are going to 60 in for the
court game in big way this season.
Gienger was to send his new
charges against an alumni five in
their first game today and has
scheduled most of the junior high
quints in the vicinity, as we'll as
some senior high teams. The first
outside game is with Leland Junior
High on December II.
Although it's the first year that
the sport has been put on major
basis, IL boys are on the squad.

WPA Writers Help
Good NeiqhbOr Plan

Credit for work which will have IN
ternational significance In furthering
the good neighbor policy Of the United
States and South American countries,
has been given the Montana WPA
writers project. State Administrator
Joseph E. Parker said.
Parker was advised that WPA's
latest book, The United States Of
America; a Pictorial Guide to De-
mocracy," sponsored by the depart
ment Of state, would be translated into
Spanish and Portuguese for immediate
distribution throughout South America.

square stern, and covered with deck
of plank or puncheons. The freight,
laid on the deck, was protected by
a covering of skins. The boat was
worked upstream either by oars or
towing line and steered by an oars
man at the stern. A square sail was
resorted to in going upstream If the
wind was in the right direction. These
boats were from 30 to 40 feet long,
and 6 or 8 feet across at the stern.
The bateau, a flat-bottomed boat,
was employed in taking furs down
stream, and was kept in the current
by the steerSman. The oar, pole, tow
ing line and sail were all used when
going up the river The bateau was
larger and longer than the pirogue.
AS the fur trade increased in i'm
portance. it was found necessary to
have a better craft than any Of the
preceding This need was supplied by
the keel boat, which was generally
from so to rs feet in length, with
2O-foot beam. It was well built, had
a draft of 80 inches light, and car
rying capacity of 10 to 20 tons. In
the center stood the cabin, and on
for the boatmen. The cordelle, a line
sometimes 800 feet long attached to
the top of the mast that rose from
the center of the boat, the oar, the
pole, and mast were all used as motive
power.
Crew Called Brigade"
The crew of a keel boat was called
a brigade" and often consisted OF
a hundred men including trappers
and hunters. Every boat carried q
small cannon on its bow. The average
rate of progress was about Is miles a
day, and to reach Fort Union, at the
mouth of the Yellowstone, took al
most the entire boating season, while
eight months were required to reach
Fort Mckenzie from st. Louis.
Going upstream was laborious work
for the crew, who we're often called
upon to drag the boat up against the
swift current, and what made 1t hard
err for them, had to maintain a pre-
carious footing on crlmbling banks
that threatened to precipitate them
into the river. They subsisted on pork,
beans and I've hominy, and no pork
was given them when game could be
procured. Chapel says: ut is impos-
sible. in this age Of steam and cleo
tricity. for anyone unacquainted with
the character Of the Missouri river TO
comprehend the difficulties of such a
VOYAGE as these boats made In 1871.
At break of day the horn Of the
patron (captain) called the men 70

dark they tugged along the shore;

FARM MACHINERY
SHORTAGE GRAVE

Agriculture department officials are
perturbed over what they said was the
failure Of defense authorities to rec
ognize agriculture's need for machin-
cry and farm equipment II It Is to
meet unprecedented food require
ments
Farmers. these officials said, face
stupendous task in stepping up pro
duction of meats. dairy and poultry
products, and vegetables TO supply a
sharply expanding domestic market
and a large part OF Great Britains
needs. Many farmers have reported
that they win be unable to meet their
individual production goals unless
they get additional equipment.
The office OF production manage
ment has allotted materials for only
30 percent OF farm equipment sold
during the last quarter OF 1870. Agri-
culture department officials say this
allotment Is sufficient to meet farm
ers' most urgent needs" II farmers
defer purchase Of everything not I'M
mediately needed.
The sharpest pinch is being felt.
these officials said, in equipment need
ed by dairy and poultry farmers.
One high placed farm official said
the agriculture department was ex-
periencing great difficulty IN con-
vincing priority authorities that the
production OF food should be constd-
cred lust as much a defense industry
as production OF airplanes, tanks and
munitions.

half-bent, wading in water, scrambling
over rocks and through brambles and
brush, they pulled the boat against the
swift current, until at last the glisten-
ing snow Of the Rockies gave assur-
ance that they we're approaching their
journeys end"
The cheapest means of transporta-
ton was furnished by the mackinaw
boats. They we're intended for but one
downriver trip, and roughly built.
Freight was carried in the middle OF
the boat, as on the keel boats, and
was protected by a covering OF skins,
fastened to the sides by cleats. They
always Travelled on the June rise and
often made 100 miles a day. Only five
or six men were necessary TO man
them. Sometimes a boat made the
long Journey alone, but more frequent

others.

penetrating, and no fit receptacle
could be found for 1t. The only way
in which it was taken long dis

1t was not until 1919 that an at
tempt was made TO use steamboats, on
the Missouri. The first boat OF TINS

the Missouri was named the Inde-

neer is thus described by Chappeu
"She was q small stern-wheeler. u

10 inches light. She was intended q

undoubtedly she did so. On her bow

Sunstroke

Severe sunburn not only causes
great discomfort but may bring on
severe sickness. Do not expose the
entire body to the bright sun or
even small parts for more than q
few minutes at first. A half-hour
riding in a boat may burn the
hands and face badly.
The old-fashioned parasol had
many practical features. and 1t is
a good protection on a boat ride.
A little mild ointment on the
hands and face will prevent SUM-
burn and it is good for treatment
later. Don't plunge sunburned
hands or face in cold water. Sun
stroke follows exposure to excessive
heat in working or exercising out
of doors. The victim may fall sud-
denly, or become faint and weak.
The face is red and the skin Is hot
and dry; the pulse is rapid and full
with labored breathing. The pa
tent may become unconscious or
suffer sharp headache or cramps.
Send for a doctor IL one Is near.
Place the patient in a cool shady
place and remove clothing. Bathe
face and hands with cold water.
Wiring cloths out of cold water
and lay over the body. or wrap
in cold wet sheets, rub vigorously
to overcome shock and bring the
blood to the surfce. Give cold
water to drink. adding little salt
to the water.
II burning Is the source OF the
accident, apply some oil, butter,
soda or anything to shut out the
air. 1t is always well to carry q
little boric acid ointment.

night and even this remedy failed.
Mother said that she would see
the dentist the next day, but by
morning the pain miraculOuSly
was gone. and nothing was done.
The next time the boy was kept
awake at night, however. mother
took him to the dentist promptly
on the morrow. But as Wallace
was totally unprepared for what
was to happen. 1t was like leading
a lamb to slaughter. The mother
merely had assured him that it
would not hurt and said nothing
at all about the possibility Of the
extraction which took place.
This unfortunate experience Is
sure to leave a horrible impression
upon the boy. Toothache or no
toothache. it won't be easy to per-
suade him to submit to dental
treatment in the future. Fear Of
dentists sometimes carries over
into adulthood and should be
avoided. Had the boy been taken
to the dentist at once when he
started having tOothache, it might
have been a simple matter to treat
and save the tooth, and the child
would have been spared much
needless pain.
Ideally. a child's first visit to
the dentist should take place as
a matter of course after the first
set of teeth Is complete. The baby
teeth usually are complete be-
tween twO-and-a-half and three
years. True they will be replaced
in a few years by the permanent
teeth but meanwhile 1t is import
ant that they be preserved. A little
child needs strong teeth for biting
and chewing, the same as an
adult. The chewing OF food Is the
first step In the process OF digeS-
ton. II part OF this power Is lost
either through pain or the alb
sence of teeth, the process Of
digestion Is slowed up and his
general health may suffer by it.
The pulp area is larger in chill
dren's teeth than in adults. mean
ing that their teeth are more
quickly destroyed by tooth decay.
This Is a good reason why they
should see the dentist twice or.
at the very least. once a year.

None of the QUESTIONABLE re-
plies showed any dislike toward
the use of makeup. but there were
various objections to the inartiStic
use of cosmetics. Rouge applica-
tions which do not look natural,
either because badly placed or too
heavy, and powder surplus which
hasn't been properly brushed of
were most frequent among the
complaints.
Queries which touched upon the
couture brought the following re-
actions from the men:
They prefer sleek and firmly
fashioned coiffures to any Of the
careless, fall where it may or
glamour girl types.
They prefer your hair in its
natural color, no matter what that
color might be, than to see you
with bleached or dyed hair.
They beg to be spared a return
to extremely short hair or mascu-
line type coiffureS on women. and
could do without millinery OF the
"crazy-wacky" school. They like
flowers and ornaments in the hair,
especially for summer evening
wear.
And the Factor QUESTIONABLE

that men are not so strongly in
favor Of glimpsing feminine knees
as legend and Jokes would indi-
cate. They expressed a preference
for dress lengths which cover the
knees rather than those that don't.
