The Libby Lumber company gave
a rs cent raise in pay per day for
| all employees in the woods and mill

common labor in the company's en-
ploy from $500 a day to 1925. The

crease Of several thousand dollars
a month in the payroll of the COM
pany.
| According TO the calculations of
| the members of the Lincoln county
board of exemption under the draft
law, this county was required to
furnish approximately So men for
the first call The conclusion was
reached by figuring that the coun-
tvs registration Of $40 men was ap-
proximately one per cent of the
states total. Press reports gave
Montana's gross quota, exclusive Of
credits for national guard and en-
listments at 10000
The cooperation Of the city of
Libby, which brought the necessary
1900 feet of pipe, and Of the of
fieers of Company G, who furnished
the labor for laying, resulted in

into the park. The pressure was
good, and the soldiers greatly en-
joyed the luxury of shower bath.
With the thermometer Of the for
estry office registering a maximum
of 81 degrees, Libby was exper-
fencing one Of the longest and most
persistent hot spells in her history
The only comfort in the situation
was the refreshing GOODNESS Of the
