 Suddenly those in front surged forward. Instantly, the groups be- came heaving, writhing, twisting masses of humanity. The paths to the time clocks became clogged; a fact utterly disregarded by those pushing in from the rear. Sheer weight of numbers kept the groups moving forward.
 Above the bowling, cursing cries of those caught in the vortex of the pool came the agonized plead ing of man who had missed step His reaching, clawing hand was disregarded. Men and women pushed relentlessly onward. Ruth less feet battered the unfortunate individual.

Eyes grim, faces taut and expect ant, nearly 12,000 men and women were grouped under the boats, in shops and offices pointing toward the time clocks. Many of them carried in their hands various wea- ponS of destruction - heavy ham mers, screw drivers, wrenches. Others carried tool boxes which could be used effectively as batter ing rams. Many lunch pails were in evidence; light in weight but ca- pablo of administering damaging blows.

Bliven Takes Hamm For a Sleigh Ride

Inspector Roy Bliven and Navy Inspector Walter Hamm have just returned from their vacation in New York, and believe 1t or not. with their wives.
 From all reports they had quite time, and being Inspector Hamm's first trip to the big city, Bliven really took him for sleigh ride, and all but sold him the En- pire State Building. He would have succeeded, too, only Hamm did not have his check book with him, because like all those State of Maine boys. he is very cautious with his money.
 Bliven's first suggestion was a place to eat C'Gallagher's"D. Upon arrival Walt was greatly thrilled and even remarked about the "sawdust on the floor" To make long story short, they enjoyed delicious steak (believe it or noO dinner, and seeing that Bliven had paid for the breakfast, Hamm thought it only right that he pay for the dinner, so promptly asked the waiter for the check, but when he saw it, he wondered just what he was buying, and was going to ask the manager for bill of sale.
 After leaving Gallagher's, they headed for show. but when they reached their destination, the line was SO long they didn't know whether to wait or not. Bliven piped up and said, Just min ute," and walked past the line to a gentleman standing in the lobby. He said, Here, Bliv. are your tic kets." Walt, of course, wanted to know who the gentleman was and Bliv told him he was the Little Flower" Bliven, little bewilder- ed, asked what his name was. Walt replied, ''LaGuardia, the mayor" Walt, very much bewildered this time. answered, Gee. you know everybody, don't you?"
 After they were seated, Bliven handed Hamm a pair of opera glasses, and told him he didn't want him to miss anything, and he didn't.
 The next morning they checked out of the hotel, and headed for New London, so broke that their wives had to buy their meals com ing home.
 On the following Friday Bliven was notified to return his vacation form to the Ration Board.

Credit Union m 4 Nutshell

FeQeraI CreQlC OnlOnSp cnarLSreO and supervised by the Government, are cooperative organizations to promote thrift among their mem bers and create source of credit for useful purposes. A Credit Union helps it's mem bers to save money conveniently, safely and in small sums. The money thus saved is loaned to members at reasonable rates of iu- terest.
 Business affairs are handled by 8 Board of Directors, 8 Credit Com mittee and Supervisory Commit tee elected from and by the mem bers. Membership Is limited to a group having a close common bond of association. Hence, each mem- Der is associated and appreciates the problems of others.
 No officer or committeeman may cosign for member and may not borrow more than his holdings in the Credit Union.
 All money must be deposited in bank which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corpo- ration. Anyone handling funds of the Credit Union must be bonded. | Federal Credit Unions are ex- amined periodically by representa- tives of the Federal Deposit Insur- ance Corp. Twenty per cent of net earnings must be set aside as re- serve for possible bad loans.
 Loans may only be made for provident and productive purposes and at a rate of interest not to ex- ceed 1%o monthly on unpaid bal ances.

Ophein Highway
Bridge Will Be
Replaced Soon

Tentative plans for replacing a
bridge 2% miles north of Baylor on
the Opheim road were made Fri
day, it was reported by county
officials.
The bridge was destroyed last
month when stubble fire on an ad-
joining farm got out of control and
ignited the bridge.
At the bridge Friday were County
Commissioner Carl Shellerud, r. l..
Ewing of Wolf Point, division en-
gineer of the state highway depart
ment, and Manson H. Bailey.
Mr.. Ewing and Mr.. Bailey con-
Quoted preliminary surveys to de-
termine whether it will be possible
to replace the bridge temporarily
with large culverts. Further water
drainage studies will be necessary
before this can be determined def
initely.
The bridge that burned was of
pile and timber construction with
two 19-foot spans.
