YOU DON'T have TO have
factory job or wear a uniform
to be a first line fighter in the
battle for Victory.
II you are one of the kitchen
soldiers packing lunch boxes for
war workers, you can make a
big contribution to production
efficiency by making sure each
meal is we'll balanced, nourish-
ing and appetizing.
Lack of proper nutrition is
the greatest enemy OF efficient
war production, particularly in
crowded areas where inadequate
eating facilities encourage sand
witch grabbing.
For top efficiency, govern
ment nutritionists suggest that
every workers lunch should con-
sist OF milk, whole wheat or
enriched bread, meat. cheese.
fish or eggs, fruit and vege-
tables. They recommend that
this meal provide at least one
third of the days nutritional re-
quirements.

Sour Cherries

Sour cherries, on the other
hand, are all self-fruitful so it
isn't necessary to worry about
them at all.
Nearly all the peaches are
self-fruitful. the most notable
exception being the j. II. Hale
peach. which needs a good poll
linating variety such as South
Haven planted with it TO insure
fruit setting. A few additional
varieties of peaches are self
sterile. but not many.
Coming next TO plums-all of
them are self-sterile, so at least
two trees of different varieties
must be planted. Not only that,
but the japanese plums won't
pollinate the European varieties
and vice versa. SO here is a case
where careful does it.

At first glance the wisest man in the world
seems to have been guilty of piece of needless
folly which he knew perfectly well would offend
Jehovah and exasperate his own people, already
restless under heavy taxes. But he had his reasons
for taking chance.
He did it to please the Mrs. In his case the
Mrs consisted Of 700 wives, all Princesses, and
SEQ not of such high station, who were mere con-
cubines. This by itself looks like monumental
folly being about 900 more than was good for him.
1t is unthinkabe that he loved whole regiment
of / 900 women or could even call half of them by
name-so why should he have burdened himsS
with this enormous and costly feminine boardiN
house?
It was mostly for reasons of state. Solomons

Modern persons strive to conceal their igno-

pains in concealng their knowledge, to prevent
others from avaing Themselves of it.
For instance there is considerable evidence that
these same Phoenicians had invented some sort of
compass but hid the secret SO well that it died with
their empire
Some day, on that promontory, may be located
a tank-hke excavation in the rock, with ppe-llke

explain how the bowling achieved.

How old the statue of the great
bowling dog just unearthed may be, is
not certain, but there is some reason
for believing that it was carved by the
Phoenicians, some 1900 years B. c.,
when they ruled this area, and it may
have originally been worshiped as an
effigy of the god Moloch.
But there is also reason to think it
was carved by prehistoric people who
worshiped the dog. And that it was
later taken over by the Phoenicians.

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

When Joseph Haydn was told to
write music to represent a storm
at sea" he was puzzled. but did as
well as he could.
Curtz, the director Of the Vienna
theater, was not content with that
part Of the hbretto. When the
young musician played II for him
on piano he kept asking Ques-
tions and tried to point out what
was wrong
At length $50 the story goesl
Haydn decided to give up in despair.
Raising his hands in the air. he
clenched his fiSts and pounded them
down on the piano, one fist at each
end, then touched all the white
keys as he swept his hands together.
There you have it," cried CurtI.
There you have III"
What do I have?'
You have the Storm at Seal"
The astonished young man finished
the music for the hbretto, which
won high success. He was paid a
sum equal 10 about SIS in our money,
by far the greatest amount he had
ever earned.
From that time onward things
went somewhat better for Haydn.
Evening star., 1942-04-18

He composed many pieces Of music
and earned money teaching.
Then came the day when he was
given the place Of choirmaster in
the castle Of an Austrian prince.
This position he held for 80 years
and it gave him much time to write
symphonies and other kinds of
music. He was the first great mas
ter of music to write symphonies.
After the death of the prince
Haydn made his first visit to Eng
land. He was honored for his great
work and was given the degree Of
doctor Of music by oxford Uni
versity.
Returning to Vienna, he took up
the teaching OF music once more.
One Of his pupils, 22-year-old Lud-
wig van Beethoven, was to win
great place in the world of music.
Once more Haydn visited England.
This time he produced six new SYM
phonies and the English people
again showed him the warmest good
will.
In the later years Of his life
Haydn composed q national anthem
for Austria. He played the anthem
many times while Napoleon's SOL

Joseph Haydn died at the age OF
IT. The brilliant Mozart, who had
been his friend, had died Is years
before. Speaking of Haydn, Mozart
once said to another composer, IF
you and I we're melted into one We
should still be far from making
another Haydn" That was a fine
tribute, but most musicians now
place Mozart above Haydn, though
they regard Haydn highly and call
him the Father of the Symphony"

quale by name-met his fate because
of a murder growing out of business
transaction. A man on his way from
Post Falls, Idaho, to the Flathead
country, stopped at the camp Of Pas
quale to trade horses. The trade &C
complished to his satisfaction, the man
went on his way.
Meanwhile, after due consideration,
and perhaps testing his new acquisi-
ton, Pasquale repented his bargain,
and following the man, Dunn, demand
ed bis horse back, as was frequently
the case when Indian and white man
transacted business. Dunn refusing to
give up the horse, Pasquale kept on
his trail and finally killed him leaving
the body between two tree trunks. The
man who later ran across the body
OF Dunn, told Pasquale Of his discovery,
when Pasquale boosted that he had
committed the murder.
While an investigation instituted by
Major Roman to discover the murderers
was under way, an Indian arrested for
another murder revealed the guilt Of
Pierre Paul and KAla See, and during
the effort to apprehend them, an In
nocent Indian was shot. This enraged
the Flatheads, who did all in their
power to shield the criminals. until
the sheriff made them understand that
the murderers must be given up for
trial, when the four were turned over
to the authorities.
The trial Of the Indians seems toI
have been fairly conducted, and they
stoically accepted their sentence after
the manner of their race. The hanging
party was a success. Where at one
moment were four living men, a few
later four corpses dangled
from the ends Of ropes, and the grue-
some spectacle was at an end.
Selling whisky to the Indians seems
to have been the main cause Of their
more recent crimes. and some mem
who provided the two with liquor, that
led to the shooting at Arlee, and later
10 the murder Of the two white men
by Pierre Paul and Lala See should
have suffered for his share Of the
crime.
Terrible stories are related by fur
traders Of the acts committed by
drunken Indians. Recognizing the dan
ger for white men and Indians alike,
when the latter were under the in
ruence Of strong drink, the HudSon's
Bay Co. for some time forbid its sale,
1r so they claimed, but that competi-
ion which Is the life Of even the fur
.rade, led them TO change their rul-
ng, or the Americans would secure the
Julk Of the fLirs.
Although our government made the
ale Of liquor to Indians illegal, our
American fur companies, by a strange
coincidence, excused themselves for
,reaking the Law, being forced, they
aid, to do so or be driven out Of the

WHEN MONTANA
ACTED ON INDIAN
LIQUOR PROBLEM
Law DIDN'T KEEP RED MAN FROM
GETTING 1T; FUR COMPANIES
WERE CHIEF OFFENDERS

On Dec. IS, 1890, the sheriff of Mis-
soula county gave select party 'fol
men only" to witness the hanging o.
four Indians. Invitations were issued
In correct form for the event, ane
those receiving them doubtless felt
gratified at being so honored.
The day has passed when an execu-
ton was an event eagerly anticipated
by the community at large; when
father, mother and all the children
took their lunch with them and made
q day OF It; when the last words Of
the condemned, and his dying struggles
were the subject Of conversation for
months and years thereafter, or until
the next hanging was staged But this
morbid curiosity, this pleasure to be
derived from Witnessing the sufferings
Of others, is not by any means out
grown, and it is not recorded that
any invitations were unaccepted.
This hanging was the result of the
killing Of white men at different places
and times. At Arlee, in 1885, two
drunken Indians entered a store by
night and demanded that they be
given goods. The storekeeper refused
and called another man TO his assist
ance. In the resulting alteration, one
Indian was killed and another wound
ed. Word was sent to Missoula of the
affair, and the sheriff and his men in
response to the summons, FASTENED to
the scene of the fight and captured
the wounded Indian who was later
taken from the sheriff by a company
Of Indians.
The Indian killed was related to
Pierre Paul, one of the condemned,
and his primitive code called for re-
venge. Opportunity for this did not
occur until two years later. when in
August, 1887, three white men camped
near the Jocko river were murdered
by Paul, and Lala See, another of the
condemned. A woman, while fishing,
discovered the bodies In the river where
they had been thrown, and the matter
was reported TO the authorities.
