A nationwide noncollege course in

training because Of lack of college
work, Is attracting considerable at
tention among potential students, Of
ficials Of Montanans, Inc, state. At
present, Plentywood and Great Falls
have such courses In Montana. The
Great Falls course, begun the first

Chamber Of Commerce Is training in
navigation, meteorology, civil air reg

number of persons interested In fly

1O2-Year-Old State Woman
Served as Civil War Nurse

Mrs Sarah Miranda Vorus, VINO
celebrated her 1O2d birthday Feb. .,
calls war "a terrible thing" and knows
whereof she speaks. Mrs. Vorus, who
has lived at the Montana Home for
the Aged at Billings since September,
1899, served as a nurse in the Civil
war and can remember four other
wars in which the United States par
ticipated-the Mexican war, Spanish
war. the first World war and the pres
ent conflict.
Although Mrs Vorus-or Auntie
Vorus. as she is known to her friends
lis unable to read or hear well, she
Is vitality interested In the present
conflict and asks many questions con-
corning war activities, according 70
Mrs. T. S. Stockdal who, With her
husband, operates the home
Mrs. Vorus was born Feb 5, 1910,
in New York city, the daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. James Strong Accord
ing to Mrs. Stockdal. Auntie doesn't
know exactly how old she is and still
believes she is 3d. And that's the rea-
son why many OF her friends believe
she stays young" Mrs Stockdal be-
lieves she is the oldest living Civil
war widow
Sarah Strong moved to Belvidere,
Ill. with her parents and was married
to John Vorus in 1860. Their only
child. now Mrs. Jessie Robertson Of
Great Falls. was born in 1851.
Shortly after the birth Of Jessie.
Mr.. Vorus enlisted In the northern
army in the Civil war and Mrs. Vorus
enlisted as a nurse. Soon after the
end of the war Mr. Vorus died in a
veterans hospital in Milwaukee, Wis,
and Mrs. Vorus returned to Belvidere.
Mr.. Vorus was a first lieutenant dur
ing the war.
Mrs. Vorus was stationed at Fort
Donaldson, Tenn. during the conflict
and one night when northern army
officers learned they were to be at
tackled by the southern army, they per-
mitted Mrs. Vorus and three other
nurses to leave the fort on horseback.
She kept the horse on which she es-
capped and raised seven colts after the
war was ended.
Mrs. vorus and her daughter came
to Montana In 1858 to join Mr.. and
Mrs. Strong at Sun River.
Mrs. Vorus "often had tea with
President Ulysses s. Grant and his
wife" and at one time lived across
the Tennessee river from Abraham
Lincoln"
She has two sisters, Mrs. Ellen Bios
som Of Sun River and Mrs. Pauline
Phipps Of Brusett, both IN their nine
ties; three grandchildren, MRS. d. F.
Davies of MissotIla. Mrs Norma Ketch-
UNI Of Vale, Ore, and Miss Ruth Rob-
ertson of Puyallup, Wash, and nine
great-grandchildren.

BGLing Wire Shortage
Seen Unless Farmers
Guard Supply Closely

BaIing wire must be better taken
care of and conserved more than 1t
has ever been, says the department Of
agriculture in it's request to farmers,
dairymen, stockyards operators and
other users of baled hay and straw
to make special efforts towards con-
serving bale ties for future use.
In its information forwarded to the
Montana extension service at Montana
state college, the department explains
that while there is no immediate
shortage of bale ties, nevertheless war
needs for iron may restrict their pro-
duction later on. BY conserving bale
ties now, farmers win be prepared for
a possible future shortage.
Hay and straw baled last summer
is being used now and If the bale ties
are carefully removed they can be
used a second time. To do this the
department recommends removing the
ties without cutting, or by cutting as

"RattIesnake Jake" and Pa
Staged Shooting Spree So
Years Ago in Fergus County

Jake was on his knees shooting at
anyone within range when Fallon dis
mounted and taking deliberate aim
with his rifle at Benjamin Smith, a
young man, who with several others,
were running to get away from the
rain Of bullets, fired. The ball struck
Smith in the left cheek and lodged in
his brain, killing him instantly.
BY this time citizens from behind
saloons, barns and a nearby icehouse
we're pouring a destructive fire into
the doomed pair, who, as long as they
were able to pull trigger, were re-
turning shot for shot.
"Rattlesnake Jake" was the first to
fall and Fallon bit the dust a few
seconds later, when the firing ceased
and the bodies were removed.
Owens had stood his ground like a
tiger at bay with eight Gaping wounds
in his body, and he gave up the fight
only when the ninth bullet crashed
through his head. Fallon, with one
bullet through his body, dropped his
rifle only when four more balls had
plowed their merciless way through
him.
Among the people Of Lewistown the
question arose as to what these two
desperadoes had to gain by their daring
defiance of the community. 1t could
not be seen where they had anything
to gain or anything to lose.
There was no evidence that they
were after plumber and the only con-
clusion reached was that they wished
to terrorize the whole town and when
they had completely cowed the peace
full residents, to ride off to safe
retreat and gloat over their exploits.
But unfortunately for them, they
had stumbled upon a people who would
not be inundated They found out
to their extreme cost that they had
