New Doctor Does
Some Shooting To
Benefit Children

The most effective shooting
thus far this season was
done by our new senior physi-
clan at the Blackfeet Hospital.
DR.. Crsviston. who halls from
Kansas originally. but from Rose
bud Reservation in South Dakota
more recently. in the most &C.
curate shooter to date.
Driving a maroon car h e
swooped down on the Birch
Creek school this week and shot
80 Indians in less than half an
hour and came out of the fray
putting. but with nary scratch.
The only catch to this story is
that he used a needle instead of
gun. And through his shots
SO youngsters are now immune
from diphtheria and smallpox in
this area.
1t is rumored that Doc Crew.
iston's eight-year-old son is up
setting reservation routine by his
snappy stories concerning Dewey
and Eleanor.
Welcome to our reservation,
DR.. Creviston and family. Doc"
Rogers has his fingers crossed in
order that you will stay longer
than the last gentleman from Ok.
lahoma. who just couldn't stand
our invigorating climate. Stay
with US year and you'll never
long for Kansas sun flowers OF

Around the BIackfeet
Reservation
(By Members of the Extension Staff


Archie St. Goddard Jr. is at
tending the National Al Club
Congress at Chicago this week as
representative of Glacier County
and the Rlackfeet Reservation.
The rationing and distribution
controls over farm machinery and
equipment has been removed by
the War Pre- du, ton Board. Now
ranchers may buy needed equip
ment by merely going TO the
dealer and ordering it as in peace
time. However. inability of man.
ufacturers to produce the machin-
cry desired with labor and ma
terials allotted to them may still
limit the number O f machines
that farmers can get.
According to tn e Montana
Wool Grove the prolonged war
in Europe and the new pans for
military wool goods will cause
continued large scale buying Of
wooden goods for military use in
l945 that will absorb a great deal
of the domestic clip. The Bureau
of Agricultural Economies sur
veys indicate that the number of
breeding sheep in h United
States is greatly reduced a n d
that the demand for mutton aud
lamb will continue very good.
Thus the outlook for good lamb
prices and proba ably for relatively
good wool prices should be en-
couraging to the sheep growers.

PenweII Explains
Estimated Income
Tax To Farmers

According to the Office of the
Collector of Internal Revenue,
Helena, there is some confusion
among farmers as to the date
that their estimated Federal in
come tax declarations should be
!, filed for the calendar year 1914,
and also taxpayers other than
farmers as to the due dates for
amended estimated returns.
Under the provisions Of the
Revenue Act of 1914. if at least
two-thirds of a taxpayer esti-
mated gross income for the CAL
endar year of 1914. is from farm.
ing. he may be classified as a
farmer and h is estimated tax
declaration for that year must be
filed on or before January Is,
1915. on Form l04OES. providing
his income is sufficient to e.
quire the filing of a return.
If a farmer is in the position
to prepare and file his completed
income tax return on Form 1040
for 1914 on or before January Is,
1915, he may do 20 and avoid fill
ing his estimated return at that
time; but if he cannot file his
completed return by January IS,
1915, then he must file his esti-
mated return by January Is and
his completed return on or before
March Is, 1915.
A taxpayer other than farm
er. who filed an estimated e.
turn earlier in the year 1914. de-
string to file an amended esti-
mated return after September Is,
1914, m a y filed such amended
estimate on or before January Is,
1945. In other words, he is not
limited in filing final amended
estimated return to December Is,
1915, but has until January Is.
1915, in which to submit his final
amended estimate.

 St. Nick Visits the Salesgiri
By HI. PHILLIPS


 Twas the night before Christmas when all through the fas Net a creature was stHrin (ncude me in thatl;. My stockinS little the worse for the wear, Was hung on the back of a threeIegged chalr' Outside snow fallin' in beautiful flakes,
 But didn't care-I was too full of aches
 I'd worked in a store through the holiday str1fo. And plannin' to sleep for the rest of my H.
 When up from the airshaft there cume such clatter I eaped out of bed to see what was the matter;
 q thought at the time twas the nut down one flight Who starts up his radio late ev ry night)
 So went to the window and loudly did cry,
 "Is this Christmas Eve or the Fourth or July
 When what to my dead-vyithsleep eyes did appear But hixky -dink sleigh and eight tiny reindeer!
 And who should be. drivn' right up to the door
 But one of them masquerade guys from the store!
 said to myself 'What be this nuts gamer?
 When he cucked to his reindeer and called er py name' Now Dasher! Now Dancerl Now Prancer! Now Vixen!
 On Cometl On Cupid On Donder r an, and ;, Bhtzen!"
 An just as Pm dopn' what next he will do,
 Right up to the housetop the whole outnt new!
 And then in a twinklin heard the roof
 The prancin and pawin of meat on the hoof;
 ust imagine my feelings with sleep s5 pdMan nsaIy asa6 As drew in my neck and was turnin around Dcyn the arshaft my visitor came with oouno; A big bag of junk he displayed with a grln And he acted to like he'd like to move in.' 1 He was chubby, good-natured and oozln Wth glee' But ask you dear reader what was it to me? The point that make is twas then o'clock, A And man in my room without stoppln 10 KNOCK! I was thinkin' how noivy he was and how slick When he says to me, 'Iady, m only St. Nick" We'll a poor tired store slave in no mood for fun, gave him a look and asked him. (Which one? M "As Christmas rush saesgrl," said, "YouH agree That look at St. Nick is no big treat to me; This has gone far enough and this hunks gotta stop Take the air with them goats or I'll yell for cop! He spoke not word but went on with his work, And filled up my stockins, then turned with a Jerk, And layin' a finger aside his red nose, And givin' nod up the airshaft he rose He sprang to his sleigh with shake of his head, And pulled the shades down and fell into bed, "Merrv Chrstmasi'' he called as away his deer flew, And just gave a yawn and answers "Sez you!"

WAR OR NO WAR
 YOUNGSTERS KEEP
 FAITH IN ST. KICK

Throughout this nation, letters from kiddies are beginning to poui into the post offices. They event. ually turn up at the postmasters' desks, for they are addressed:
 SANTA CLAUS,
 North Pole"
 In New York City, San Francisco New Orleans, Chicago and hund- reds of other cities such addressed letters turn up-all testifying that war or no war, the simple and fai' l- ful children have put their trust in Santa Claus.
 Such letters as the one following are the kind that postmasters, call ing upon local charities, and indi- viduals, try to have answered on Christmas morning.
 Dear Santa Claus - am writing to you because I am scared that you will miss me like you did last year. I have five sisters and four brothers and they would like something for Christmas too Mama hasn't got enough money to buy us anything and daddy has light, grocery and other bills to pay.
 Santa, we all hope and pray that you can get to cur house. We live on the second floor

NEED LITTLE TO
 KEEP FAITH WITH
 kIDDIES AT YULE

Tonight, perhaps some soldier is less lonely because he remembers the sled or drum or train he found beneath his Christmas tree one morning long ago.
 It takes so little to keep faith with the children. Madame Schumann- Heintk remembered one Christmas all her life. She was perhaps seven or eight when times were very hard and it did not seem as if very much was going to be left for her. But on Christmas morning, the little girl found she had been remembered. Her treasure? It was an orange, round and yellow, and her very own Just one orange saved that Christ mas for all eternity. Years later, a famous lady realized the love and sacrifice and ideals that orange rep resented

DAY FOR CHILD, CHRISTMAS DAY

December the 25th is the Day of the Child.
 It is upon this day of days that countless men and women and little hildren barely able to speak their language utter the great rejoicing. For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given.
 Even those who hold creeds in which there is no Christmas feel he splendor of that cry and those who have no formal creed at all. till know there is one of the 365 portions of the year which is essen- sially the Day of the Child.
 It is the day when even the most unsentimental adult long since con- gealed and hardened by the years, an hear in his heart, the footsteps

OF Santa
 Was Bornin
 Good U.S.A.

Europe brought Christmas to America, but America gave Santa Claus to Europe.
 When the early Dutch settlers came to America, they had never teard of Santa Claus. Old St. Nicholas, who brought them pres ents each December 6, changed rapidly in the New World.
 His name became abbreviated and altered to Santa Claus, and his ex- ternal appearance underwent great changes. From a lean ascetic he was transformed into a jolly, fat old fellow. His pale face became the color of rosy apples. He laid aside his canonical robes, miter and pas toral staff to become clothed in a cap and brilliant red suit, trimmed with ermine The new Santa Claus traded his famous gray horse for a reindeer ana sleigh. He also stop ped giving presents on December 6, and started distributing gifts on the rights of December 24.
 The changes in his outward ap- pearance were reflected in his change of character. When he came to America he left behind him rod and bag of ashes with which he beat naughty children, and adopt ed an entirely lovable personality.
 Completely transformed, he again crossed the ocean to be welcomed everywhere from Scotland to Aus tralia.

The time draws near the birth of

 The moon is hid; the night is
 still;
 The Christmas bells from hill

 round,
 From far and near, on mead
 and moor,
 Swell out and fail, as if door Were shut between. me and the
 sound. Each voice four changes on the wind, That now dilate, and now de crease,
