the local SMC technicians have
worked out an irrigation system
that will cover approximately 100
acres.
The water is to be taken from
Willow Creek by pumping and
will be raised approximately 40
feet. The ditch, which is $500
feet long, is designed to carry 7
second feet of water. The work
was completed Tuesday.
There are many advantages for

With spring practically here,
many of the livestock farmers on
the Blackfeet Reservation are
hoping and striving for maximum
yields from their hayland, but on
the other hand there are operat-
ors who realize that by the addi-

there are more, is Phil LaBreche,

Tribal Interest
In June Election
Begins To Wax

With the approach of June "a,
date of the next biennial Tribal
election, interest is developing as
to who will be running for the 13
Offices.
It is generally understood that
George Pambrun, former men,
Der of the council and who was
an unsuccessful candidate at the
January 1913 election, will again
be a candidate.
Another Tribal member, John
Sharp, aspires to Office. He sought
place on the council a number
of years ago when he resided at
Seville, but was unsuccessful.
Here and there one meets a
Tribal member, who says that he
may be a candidate. that he has
aspirations to Office because of
insistence and encouragement of
friends.
AS with previous Tribal Coun-
ellis, there are members who are
fed up" with the ordeal of tur-
moil and do not relish seeking re-
election.
With some Tribal members a
place on the Tribal Council is a
much-coveted place. Successful
aspirants, it has been observed,
lose much of their enthusiasm
W h e n the sailing gets tough.
Public Office is that way.
Two years ago so candidates
filed for office. That was a record
high. At that time the election
was in January. With the date
changed to June, it has been the
concensus that larger numbers OF
voters will participate. The forth.
coming election, while bringing
out a larger vote, by the same
token may bring out a larger
crop of candidates.

have temporarily interrupted the
course for summer vacation or
for reasons beyond their control.
Once a veteran completes or
discontinues his program for G..
I. bill training after the 1851 date,
he may not start another course.
After the entrance cutoff date
veterans will be expected to pur-
sue their training continuously
until completion, except for con-
ditions W h c h normally would
cause interruption by any stu
dent" the VA said. they may
change their educational objec-
tives "only while in training and
then for reasons satisfactory to
the administrator"
The VA explained that it is is
suing its regulations on deadline
dates at this time in order to give
veterans ample opportunity to
make their plans for the future.
