Record Cold
Spell Prevails
On Reservation

The longest sustained cold per-
iod in many years is h e recond
being achieved as the winter
continues. However, despite the
long chain of daily low tempera-
lures, the unpleasantries do not
compare with those of the winter
of 1946-47, wit h it's medley of
cold and warmth, heavy snowfall,
prolonged billiards. ind accom-
panying weather conditions that
resulted most serious economic
ally-the blow to the livestock in
dustry on the Blackfeet Reserva-
ton.
The record kept at the Agency
irrigation office shows that there
has been very little snow during
the winter, with January having
the heaviest, with it's 49, inches,
or 1.26 inches of moisture. The
January normal is 60 inches of
snow and SO inches of moisture.
Freezing weather b egan in
November, t h e record showing
80 above Freezing point every
n g t. 1t continued at that
mark through December. The
fore part of January moderation
began for several days when the
temperature reached a h igh of
46 above. However, there were
only three days of t h a t month
when it was above freezing.
On January 20. t h e tempera-
ture dropped to the winter'srecord
low of SO below. Though there
has been fluctuations, the record
shows that up to yesterday it has
not been abov the freezing
mark.
The Blackfeet Reservation has
Jared much better than other Sec
tons of Montana. The ope n
season for stock has continued
throughout t h e winter period
thus far. The minimum of feed
ing has b e e n required to keep
stock in the best of condition.

How 1t Grew

How 1t Grew
: IKE all hymnals, this book of
-. Psalms grew by degrees. It
was not written all at one time or
by one person. David wrote some
of the Psalms, how many we do
not know The titles Of the
Psalms were added by later He
brew editors, are no part of the
original Psalms, and are often in
accurate.
1t is very likely that as much
as thousand years went by
between the first of the Psalms
to be written, and the last.
Every modern hymnal that is
any good is in part a collection
of the best Of the old hymnals.
So our book of Psalms, as it
finally took shape, came from old
er collections. A glance through it
IN the American standard version
will show that in its present form
it is made up Of five smaller books,
ending with Psalms Al, Y, 80, 106
and $50. Each book ends with a doX-
OiOSy ana book V ends with a mag
nificent series of them. Sometimes
the editors left in duplicates. Read
ing Psalm IA side by side with
Psalm So will show that these two
are exactly the same, only using
different names for God. At least
one Of the Psalms is made up of
clippings" from earlier Psalms:
thus Psalm 1913 is made up from
Psalm 57:7-l1 and Psalm 60:5-12.
The Psalms were cherished and
preserved generation after genera
ton because of their heart-appcal.
Our Psalm book has gone through
centuries of sitting; many were
dropped out and forgotten, but the
best were saved and sung; and
what we have is the cream Of the
best of the singers Of Israel.
