1t can't miss
We were quite flattered one day
last summer when a pretty girl
walked into the drama department,
announced that she was a school
teacher, and added that she wanted
our advice.
Until then, which was a long
time even if we are not going to
say how long, school teachers had
been unanimous in not wanting our
advice. Here was one asking for it
and it made us feel just like the
Delphian Oracle.
The advice the school teacher
wanted had to do with acting and
how to go about it. She asked a
number of questions to which we
frankly admitted, as we always did
70 school teachers, that we did not

funk another test, especially after
that flash of feeling like the oracle
or Joel Kupperman of the Quiz
Kids, so we started mumbling about
the theater being such an impoS-
sible change from teaching school,
We added something about how
much better it was to have a guar
anteed audience in a Schoolroom
than taking chance on having no
audience in a theater.
Then came an inspiration. why
don't you write a play lnstead?" we
suggested lamely.
The discussion ended there and
we had a feeling that here was one
more school teacher glad to be rid
of US
But that was not the end of the
matter we discovered happily this
very day. The teacher, whose name
is Madelyn Angel and whose hus-
band is named Ralph Luther Angel,
went away She DID write a play,
with his collaboration, and they just
collected the $500 prize awarded by
the Pittsburgh Drama League for
the best new play submitted to it.
Helen Hayes who was one of the
distinguished judges in the con-
test said of the play that it is
richly human in its warmth and
glow - beautifully true, therefore
truly beautiful"
Its title is Prelude" and Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer already has con-
tacted the AngelS-which is splen-
did name for a family of play
WrightS.
They teach, by the way, in Prince
Georges County high schools.
We hope school teachers feel more
kindly toward us after this, although
we really don't see why they should.
Addenda: The radio editors and
drama editors will act as judges in

DRUG
IS NOW AVAILABLE
Is Released For Humans, Ami
mals-DOn't Expect ImpOs-
sible, Use 1t Correctly

Helena, July 11.-News that pen
icillin, the wonder drug" has now
been released for treating livestock
as well as human diseases, brought
a word of caution to stock produc-
ers today from livestock authorities.
"Penicillin has very definite linn
itations, and there is danger that
many livestock owners will be car
ried away by all the publicity it
has received and endanger the re-
covery of sick animals by not know
ing these limitations" says an an
nouncement released here today by
officials of the American Founda-
ton for Animal Health. "Like the
sulfa drugs, this new drug is eff
fective against some types of dis
ease-producing germs, but wholly
useless against others. For this
reason, a veterinarian should check
any sick animals before penicillin is
prescribed. The technique of peni-
cillin administration is also com
plicated-it must be given by hypo-
dermic into the vein, or deep in the
muscles, and the dosage must be
repeated at stated intervals if the
drug is to have the full effect
through the blood stream"
Foundation authorities pointed out
that penicillin is of no value against
virus diseases such as hog cholera
and sleeping sickness, and that
many of its other uses are still sub
ject to further research. They sug-
gested caution in expecting the i'm
possible of it, and are to see that
it is used in the right manner.

BATS NEPHEW BROWNS
WHILE CROSSING RIVER

Mr.. and Mrs. Jacob Bait and
family attended the funeral services
and burial at Worden Saturday of
Daniel Bait, 14-year-old nephew of
Mr.. Bait, which were held at the
German Congregational church.
The boy was drowned Wednesday
while crossing the Tongue river.
While motoring with his mother,
Mrs. Eva Bait of Worden to the
home of his brother-in-law and sis
ter, MI. and Mrs. Lee Baum on the
Tongue river, their car stalled near
the Baum farm. Daniel went to
summon help and endeavored to
cross the river, that way being
shorter. The body was found Thurs
day afternoon by members of the
sheriff's office of Rosebud and Gus
ter counties.
The youth was born Oct. 8, 1880,
in Huntley. Surviving include his
mother, two sisters, Miss Marie
Bait of Billings and Mrs. Baum;
his paternal grandparents, Mr.. and
Mrs. H. B. Bait of Ballantine, and
his maternal grandparents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Conrad Oblander of Billings.

cent was made in real property and
all the balance is accounted for by
personal property. This means new
wealth coming into the county.
an the past few months a sur
prising number of taxpayers have
suggested to this office that we in
crease the assessed value of real
property of the county to a point
more nearly representing the cur
rent selling prices of real estate,
but the opinion of this office, which
has been approved by the board of
county commissioners, is that as
long as building is very much re-
stricted and there is no certainty
that present selling prices will be
permanent, no increase should be
made in real property valuation.
"Of course a general increase in
all property valuation would in no
way change the amount of taxes
each individual taxpayer would have
to pay, but we think it would be
unwise to change valuation to con-
form with what may not be per-
manent prices"
Cothron said the valuation of the
city of Billings is SAL ,567,244, an
increase of $"1,877,012 over 1914.
The Laurel valuation is $2,367,1 Jos,
increase of $105,135. For school
district No. 2, Billings, the 1915
is $53,631,9 48, a gain of 49,
268 1899, and for school district No.
Z, Laurel, it is $4,746,509, an in
crease of $457,630.
Practically all classes of property
in the county increased in value, an
exception being machinery which
showed a small loss.
Motor vehicles gained 1907, 900
due to 400 new passenger a reg
situations and new trucks.
Supplies showed an increase of
500, 900; solvent credits went up
S9OO,O 900; real property in
,reased 100000, and range cattle
vas up by 100000.
The value of merchandise rose
100000 despite a loss of 100000
lue to a decreased sugar inventory.
Sheep went down slightly.
Utilities increased S676,000, due
Mostly to a new pipe line from Elk
Basin, and N. P. railway proper

ment in Montana, were announced

ernor Sam C.. Ford. The
tics commission has scheduled its
organization meeting for Helena on
July ID.
"The officers of the Montana
Aviation association feel organi-
cation could be of considerable help
to the new commission, particularly
in the matter of field work, and the
association is willing to cooperate
with the commission in its activities.
The services of our organization
will be offered the commission, par
ticularly with reference to whatever
field work is needed immediately"
Chaffin said.
In addition to Chaffin as presi-
dent, the association has c. B. And

Berries, Cherries Are
Sold By Dry Measure

The following communication from
R. E. Bancroft, inspector for the
Montana department of agriculture.
is published for information OF
berry and cherry growers:
at seems to be a rather common
practice for berry and cherry grow
ers who sell these fruits in bulk
or at their home places to use gal
lon measures. The gallon as COM
monty used is a liquid measure and
the Montana weights and measures
law states: ct shall be unlawful
for any person to sell solid sub
stances by liquid measure.) There
fore all persons selling fruit by the
liquid gallon are violating the law
and giving the buyer approximately
IA per cent less fruit than they
should receive for four quarts dry
measure.
"Berries and cherries should be
sold by the standard dry measure
quart or by the pound and never
by the gallon"
