More than ever this year, the
annual Midland Empire and Ro-
dec at Billings will deserve the
title of THE SHOW OF SHOWS,
for in addition to all of the fea-
lures which have made this eX-
position the climatic educational
and entertainment event of the
season in the north Rocky Noun
tain region, it will present new
attractions of unusual interest.
One of these will be the ap-
pearance, as a pre-fair feature,

open its gates at 800 o'clock on
Monday morning august 7th) and
will provide six days and nights
crammed full of enjoyment, with
the grand finale on Saturday
night, August 18th at midnight.
The new grandstand of rein
forced concrete and steel, replac-
ing the original frame structure
built in 1916, will delight fair
patrons. The stand is modern in
every respect and is considered
strictly fireproof. All seats are
equipped with back rests and the
visibility from every point is eX-
cellent. The new structure seats
2,723 persons, giving a combined
seating capacity of grandstand and
bleachers totaling approximately
5000.
The educational features of the
big exposition will include ex-
hibits of livestock, agricultural
products, All Club and Future

cooking, art needlework, flowers,
etc, as well as farm machinery
and equipment and commercial
displays; also manufacturing and
industrial exhibits
These exhibits will be of ex-
ceptional size and variety this
year. Machinery row" will be
completely filled, the livestock
exhibits will represent no less
than a dozen states, and the poul-
try show, which has not been held
for the past three years, Will
again be in evidence.
A new and unique special fea-
ture which is certain to hold
facination for young and old Will
be the appearance of Elektro,
The Mechanical Man, who first
thrilled visitors to the New York
Worlds Fair 10 years ago and
has only this year been brought
back to "life" after several years
in retirement. Elektro is a seven
foot mechanical giant who can
smoke cigarettes, count up to ten
on his fingers, and do many otner
things-even recite a speech. APP
pearing with him will be Sparkle,
his robot dog, who begs, barks
and wags his tail.

is equally available to the young
sters. Murray finds that the clean
health habits and craftsmanship,
so closely associated with these
activities, give a wonderful oppor-
tunity to instill in young people
the right kind of ideas and ideals,
IN a more or less painless manner.
Interested parents might consider
either adopting or adapting the
Murray plan.
Charles White summarized the
talks, and also offered the sugges-
ton that parents should support
the educational program, and that
adults cannot spend to much on
educational facilities for their
young people. A lively discussion
followed the panel talks.

tee headed by Mrs. M. ]. Schardt.

in 1899. In the session of 1889 he
was honored by being elected as
floor leader of the Republican Or
ganization in the house of repre-
sentatives. He was candidate and
elected again in 1913 and served
during the 1949 session. He was a
member of the following house

taxation, constitutional amend
ments, petroleum, oil and gas, fed
eral relations, privileges and cleo
tions, and affairs of cities.

said:
81 announced at the conclusion
of the last session of the legisla-
ture that l intended to be candi-
date for the senate, and 1 feel that
the experience and knowledge
gained during the three sessions l
have been in the legislature will
be of value in representing Yellow
stone county in the senate"
"The public offices l have held
in this county have given me an
intimate knowledge of the prob
lens of local government from the
standpoint of cities, towns and the
county. Certainly an understanding
of such problems is important to
any discussion of legislative pro-
posals affecting these different
levels of government"
With reference to taxation prob
lens, the candidate said that the
must be increasingly
aware that "the burdens of govern
ment in the form of taxes required
to operate government should be
very carefully allocated and that
no new tax burden should be
unless it is absolutely
essential to the welfare of our
people,"

IAN Legion, Lions club, Elks, Com
mercial club, Shrine, and Masonic

finery operating in the west, with
larger and finer facilities to serve
the public, it is only fitting that
the name GARTER" now be used
to designate its products"
The Carter Oil company was es-
tablished in 1898 as a producing
company and now has operations
in "a states. In 1943 and 1914, by
the acquisition of the refining and
marketing properties of the North
west Refining company, Cut Bank,
the Yale Oil corporation, Billings,

ing company, Newcastle, Wyo., as
we'll as the acquisition of the Pow
crime company in Denver, Colo,
in 1945, Carter became an inte-

tensive improvements in its mar
keting and refining facilities since
that time.

workshop. Parents have been re-
quested to make arrangements to
participate in the program.
At the meeting last Wednesday,
group singing led by Mrs. j. G.
Macdonald opened the program.
This was followed by a panel dis
cussion on prevention of juvenile
delinquency. Speakers were Rev.
M. H. Juengel of the German Lu-
theran church, who gave the min
ister's viewpoint; John L. Tubman,
who represented the city council;
Mrs. Clark McGarry, teacher and
girls councillor at the Laurel high
school; Boyd Murray, as father
representative; and Mrs. Alvin
Shaffer, who presented the moth
er's viewpoint. Charles White acted
as director, and also added some
comments from his teaching ex-
perience and work with young peo-
pie.
Mrs. Shaffer, substituting for
Mrs. P. A. Johnston, read the
paper prepared by Mrs. Johnston,
and in addition offered some of
her own comments on the subject
under discussion. Points stressed in
the talk were the advantages of
religious education for every
young person; the active interest
of the parents in all organizations /
to which their children belong; |
and the need for interest in other
peoples children, particularly those
who are not in Sunday school, J
Scouts or other character-building
organizations.
Tubman suggested it would be
helpful if the Laurel P.T.A. unit
had a representative on the city
council. If the P.T.A. can offer
a carefully prepared plan for i'm
provement of the city recreational
program, something definite might
be accomplished.
Rev. Juengel, who spoke from
the scriptural point Of view,
stressed the guidance of young
people by the parents, the need for
the parents to themselves follow
the standards they have set for
their children. Rev. Juengel also
the opinion that children
need chastisement for misdeeds,
and firm authority in their par
ents. owe also need to show con-
fidence in our children" he said.
Mrs. McGarry said that in coun-
cling work with girls at Laurel ,
high school, her main problems
we're in finding which students had ;
problems and getting the students 1
to talk freely about their troubles. !
Resentment on the par of the stu
dents and lack of cooperation on /;
the part of the parents had been ,
found at times. Counciling work is I
new in Laurel. Not enough time
at present can be given it for best
results, and there are many prob I
lens which need TO be ironed out.
She stressed that this work can be
of great value when the obstacles
are eliminated
Murray was particularly con- {
cerned that young people be pro- {
vided with fairly inexpensive recre-
alton, and greatly favored sports
as means to this end. The Muir /

as Los Angeles and San Antonio,
she wants to establish a similar
program in her own country.
Youth centers would keep the
teen-agerS off the streets and give
them better environment than
they are now living in,' she said.
The baroness also envisioned set
ting up special sewing rooms in
the centers as a convenience and
social outlet for mothers.
The pretty, Soft-spoken baron
eSs. whose first introduction to
Americans was the arrival of
United States liberation forces in
Germany has acquired a love of
America as a result of a private
visit here two years ago and her
present study" tour.
A more personal reason for
thinking Americans are wonder
full people" resulted from her
daughters marriage a few years
ago to an American Army officer
who resided at the baroness 14th
century castle during his tenure
as military governor of Gutten-
berg.
The officers were billeted at the
castle and the GIs stayed in a
house belonging to the castle, the
baroness recalled. What was her
first impression of American GIs?
'They were very well behaved
and well-mannered," she smiled.
"They helped wherever they
could"
The great influx of homeless
refugees and prisoners of war
from Russia. plus the housing sit
uation of the native population,
inspired her to form the Women's
Relief Committee.
II just couldn't sit in my castle
doing nothing with such a grow
ing flood of misery and poverty
all around me-" she said. "I have
dedicated my life to helping these
people,"
Baroness Gutenberg wants to
take back with her the true i'm
preston of America and Ameri-
cans which she will communicate
to her countrymen. Most of our
people think you are all born mil
lionaires. I, too. had the same
impression from your movies, :"
she laughed, until I visited your
country"
Inspired by the way American
women participate in civic life,
she also plans to reactivate Ger
man women's organizations. With
a worried frown. she said, with
women now representing Ct per
cent of the population of Ger
many. it is important that they
be made to realize their RESPONSE
bility to their country"
