Ho, Mum-Well, like several
hundred other curiously nutty
individuals one day last week,
we combed our hair and put on
our other shirt and set forth to
pay our respects to our partic-
ular idol. We got out our old
jallopy and with a fervent hope
that our poor old tires would
stand the trip without BLOWN
up and that our gas coupons
would stand the strain we head
ed for the village of Billings. We
had with us by unanimous con-
sent and without prejudice a
couple of friends of ours who,
by tine way, seemed a little more
peevish on this day than usual.
That smoke-filled car was the
sounding board for enough mo-
mentouS-not to say ~Satirical
and vitrolic-opinionS to COM
pletely settle the worlds troubles.
In fact, it is our studied opin-
ion that the world suffered a
great loss simply because we had
no broad-casting equipment in
the car.
Well, we arrived at the cross
roads of the Midland Empire in
due time and condition but we
were amazed at the Lack of
human life. The streets were de-
Serted-aS though the place was
being bombed or somethin'.
Finally we did run onto a little
Woe-begone individual and when
we asked him why all the alb
sence, he pointed over to the
Northern Hotel and said that
everyone but him was there. It
seems that he was the only New
Dealer left in the town and he
was gettin' damned lonesome.
OF course we headed for the
Hotel with a firm determination
on our part, personally. to con-
tact our hero or bust a suspend
er button.
Well, the hoStelry was damned
with both men and women-on
every floor-in every room. In
our blind haste to get a glimpse
of our idol we blundered into a
large room filled with a large
group of reconstructed gram
mas who were in the process of
CC1lIS 1Ad1 dig ny d TduQer
beautous creature-we don't
know what the subject was be-
cause in the first place, we
didn't stay long enough and
secondly all the ladies were
talkin' and nobody could hear
anything anyway.
After several hours of heart
breaking search and inquiry we
family came to the conclusion
that We would not get to see the
great man and sure enough we
soon learned quite definitely
that he had left the hotel and
had retired to his private car to
prepare his daily column. Surely
Westbrook Pegler is a hard man
to see.
RHODE ISLAND RED
P. S. Oh, Yeah, We saw Gov.
Dewey while we were up there
an alright guy, we'd say. Also
saw Sam Ford and Tom-No,
Wen take that back we
didn't see Tom Burke-probably
missed him in the crowd.
So-long.

Our Hardin school band has
always been a source of pride to
most of us, but I was especially
proud of our boys and girls dur
ing their recent trip to the
Midland Empire fair.
The band played several num-
berS on the streets of Billings
before going to the fair grounds
and were very well received. On
every side complimentary re-
marks were heard. But I was
especially pleased at some of
the remarks overheard in the
grandStand as our band came
out to play, led by their direct
or, Carl Carter.
boy, that little band certain
ly has a lot of pep for it's size".
This came from a man sitting
behind us. The man with him
replied, yes, and they look and
act like they really mean bust
ness"
From some where way up IN
the grandstand a male voice
yelled, "Hey! Look!. Here comes
that snazzy lookin' Hardin
Each number was met with
much applause. AS the band took
the lead and marched in front
OF the grandstand when the
stock parade began, the group
in front of us became enthusiast
tic and compliments of every
nature came from them for our
band. One lady remarked, THAT
is one of the best outfits of band
uniforms I've seen In a long
time. They really show up a.
gainst any background. And
from another, Look! Not one of
those kids are out of step and
their music is in perfect time"
Still another woman said.
Yes! And they are a very we'll
behaved band. You notice there
is no cutting up in line o,
march or while their directors
back is turned" This brought
still another compliment from
the Lady at the side of the
group - apparently neither
from Billings or Hardin, for she
spoke up, Sayin, i've been COM
ing to Billings with our band the
past few years to the music
meet here and I've always MOTTO
ed the good behavior of the Har-
din band. Whereupon her hus-
band put in, Eyes, and they al
ways seem to have a good time,
at that"
These remarks are passed on
to you just as I heard them
from the people in the grand
stand. Since the band did SO
much credit to themselves and
Hardin I feel that we can well
be proud of the boys and girls
and their director, Mr.. Carter.
The summer evening concerts
given this past season were
very much enjoyed by all who
heard them and T., for one, hope
we will have more to enjoy.
