Montana's best power site will
never be developed if the Montana
Power Company has its way In that
case not only Montana but the Pa
cific Northwest and indeed the en-
tire nation will be the loser.
BUFFALO RAPIDS DAM
On July 20, 1868, the Montana
Power Company applied to the Fed
eral Power Commission for pre-
liminary permit to construct a so
foot $4,000 kilowatt dam at Buff
falo Rapids on the Flathead River
four miles below Kerr Dam.
Unfortunately Buffalo Rapids is
located so feet under the reservoir
surface of the Army's proposed Para
disc Dam. The Buffalo Rapids Dam
would skim-off the upper 60 feet of
the Paradise Dam reservoir, reduce
its disable storage from 4,0SO,O00
acre feet to 100000, and render
Paradise\ Dam unfeasible.
So here is another case of pri-
vate power corporation wanting to
build a small dam in the bottom of
large reservoir project. The issue
in the Buffalo Rapids Dam versus
Paradise Dam is the same as in the
battle of the Kettle Falls Dam ver-
sus Grand Coulee Dam. 1t is the
same issue involved in the Oxbow
Dam versus Hells Canyon Dam.
THE PARADISE DAM
The Corps of Engineers has made
extensive studies of the Paradise
Dam site. The foundations have been
core drilled, the alternate cites have
been studied and discarded, and con-
work has been done on prep
aration of plans and cost estimates.
The Army's Paradise Dam would
be located two miles downstream
from Paradise, Montana, Il miles
above Plains, Montana, and "a miles
west of Miss oula. The dam would be |
ocated on the Clark Fork four miles
below the point at which the Flathead |
River flows into the Clark Fork. The |
reservoir would be 2,700 feet above
sea level which is identical with the
ailwater elevation of Kerr Dam. The
huge reservoir would extend up the
Clark Fork 40 miles and up the Flat
head River 72 miles.
The project would be in four parts

On Many, Dean Says

MINNEAPOLIS. Aug. Z. - A
British churchman said here to-
day that the sight Of Queen

her coronation made q deep imr
preston all over the world.
"The mere sight of anyone in

coin, England.
But the thought Of a SOW
ereign ruler Of q Nation and
Commonwealth thus acknow-
Lodging the supreme authority

easy to forget" Dean Dunlop
said.

can Congress. the dean reported
q profound shift over the cen
turies to emphasis in the Angli-
can church to sacramental wor-l
ship and teaching.
The number of celebrations of
holy communions has increased
tremendously, Dean Dunlop said.
The Rev. Massey H. Shepherd
reported today there are about
II versions of the Book of Com
mon Prayer in the Is national

Bible Questions
And Answers
ALBERT F. RANDOLPH

Question; What is gambling?
Is it wrong? Should a Christian
take part in any kind of lottery
or games of chance, such as
drawings, etc?
Answer: To gamble is to haz-
ard something on an uncertain
event or chance. Certainly il is
wrong. Christians should take no
part in anything of the kind. We
know that all manner of chances
are offered by business men and
others to stimulate their busi-
ness, such as keys, tickets, cards,
numbers, written statements, but
they all bear the same mark of
something-for- nothing or chance
and bear in no way upon the
merit or accomplishment of the
individual Dealing with such
| uncertainties is surely out of the
realm of the Christian religion.
Christian religion deals with
the most definite certainties.
Men may know they are saved
and on the way to Heaven. See
Paul in II Tim. At, 8 as he says,
Il have fought good fight, I
have finished my course, | have
kept the faith: Henceforth there
is laid up for me a crown of
righteousness, which the Lord,
the righteous judge, shall give
me at that day: and not to me
only, but unto all them also that
love his appearing" Paul was
taking no chances or leaving to
any uncertainty with God and
the hopes of Heavenly glory. :
When we have done what we
can, and what the Lord has re-
quired of us, we commit all to
Him and trust in Him for the
reward of the blessed, and we
will never be disappointed.
The results of contests, lotter-
les and all chance workings have
AiOtiAIB SCA vain dDOui tIlSIll. I1OW
could an individual pray over
such things? In such cases just
one can be benefited by the
results of the chance, while an
other may have done as much
or more than the one who has
won the offered reward. BY far
the best thing to do is to work
in an honest way and have clear
and free conscience of knowing
that you have not left to chance
or uncertainty that which you
may rightfully claim as the re-
ward of your labors. Let us live
in the realm of certainties, do
Gods will and follow Him in all
His ways. He has promised and
has never broken His promises.
You can depend upon Him and
His word.

and rarity, the ruby has always

Known as the Stone Of Royalty,
it was sought by kings and en-
perors for their crowns and as
love tokens for beautiful prin-
cesses. In many lands, every
large ruby became, automatical-
ly, the property of the ruler.
July's birthday list represents
variety of interests, talents and
professions: author and Pulitzer

KNOW YOUR
SOCIAL SECURITY

If you plan to take a job this
summer you'll need a social
security account card. Mr.. Robert
| B. Youmans, manager of the
GAINESVILLE social security office,
reminded school students today
Your employer will ask to see
your card when you start on the
job because it is necessary for
him TO copy the name and social
security account number into
his records exactly as shown on
the card. He needs this informa-
ton for the quarterly social
security report he is required to
make of your earnings.
If you already have social
security card, he sure to take it
with you when you go on a job
this summer. If you have lost
your card, you should go to the
social security office and get a
duplicate card before starting on
a job this year. If you have never
had card, you should get one
from your social security office
before you report for work in a
job covered by the social security
law.
Most jobs are covered by the
social security law, Mr., You
mans said. An exception is sum-
mertime work on a farm. AS he
explained, farm workers must
meet a regularly of employment
test; they must work at least
five consecutive months for one
farm operator in order to have
their cash wages credited to their
social security account. Domestic
work - that is, work of any kind
for private household - counts
toward old-age and survivors in
surance if the employee works
for the same employer or an
average of at least two days a
week.
There are no regularity re-
quirements for jobs in commerce
or industry, he said. If you work
even for short time for a busi-
ness, you'll be asked for your
social security card. Mr.. You
mans advises students who do
not plan to take vacation job
this year to defer getting a card
until they have a need for one.

national income.
There is an interesting new
slant to the coming sales era
however, that was pointed out 6
short time ago by one of the ma
TONS outstanding sales execu-
tives, Fen K. Doscher, Vice-Presi-
dent in Charge of Sales for Lily
Tulip Cup Corporation. Accord
ing to Mr. Doscher, the new
boom in salesmanship will bring
all the advantages enumerated
above, without the disadvantages
and even the aggravations which
in times past caused the Ameri-
can people to look with some
misgivings at the sales profes-
sion.
No longer, says this sales eX-
ecutive, will we have to put up
with the stereotyped, noisy, back
slapping American salesman or
drummer of yester-years. There
is New Look in the selling pro-
fession and in his place we find
dignified, reliable individual.
Today's salesman is productive
human being who will produce
best if management gives him
the right kind of leadership,
rather than the wrong kind OF
ownership.
If these new techniques in
salesmanship are backed up by
advertising programs, also digni-
fled and reliable, then indeed
will this nation enter into an era
of unprecedented prosperity, This
columnist is hopeful that these
advertising programs will call for
a much larger share of advertis-
ing appropriations to be alloeat-
ed to smalltown newspapers -
to reach the most important seq
ment of the nations population
those who live in the grass
roots.
Never in all history has a
people attained so much as we
Americans have obtained for
ourselves under our American
Capitalistic System for Free,
Competitive Enterprise. And a
greater factor in making that
system tick has been the sales
program of all companies, large
and small.
Perhaps this new salesmanship
by craftsmanship philosophy of
Mr.. Doscher and others, to be
used in selling goods and services
to our own people, can also be
used in selling our way of life
to people everywhere. If we can
defeat depression at home with
the help of our sales know how,
it is a good bet we can defeat
communistic inroads abroad with
the same kind of ability and ap-
proach.
At any rate, it is grand to real
ize that craftsmanship is once
again a vital cog in our economic
scheme of things - that the
salesman who has been out in the
field for much too long an inning
is now at bat again and in there
swinging. - George Peck.

YOUR
ELECTION
LAWS

One of the NEST often asked
questions in the Secretary OF
States office is: why do we
have registration"
The primary purpose of regis
tration is to provide method of
making certain that those who
vote in a precinct are actually
residents of that precinct and are
qualified to vote there.
There are arguments pro"
and con" on the subject of reg
istration, of course, but in many
places where registration has
been put into effect there has
been reduction in election ir-
regularities.
Modern-day living is vastly
different from the so-called
horse and buggy" days and this
has affected voting. There was
a time when approximately 200
persons lived in a precinct and
the election officials serving at
the polling place on election day
would know everyone who re-
quested ballots.
Today, even in some of our
rural areas, and most certainly
in the more populouS areas
where the population is much
more transitory, the problem of
proper Identification of voters
becomes more acute. A large
percentage Of families move from
place to place and the population
IN many areas has increased so
that the average precinct of to-
day has $50 voters.
Registration isn't such COM
plicated matter as some may
think. In order to register, a per-
son goes to the office of the
Board of Elections and fills in
registration forms which bear
his signature. That persons reg
Istratlon card is sent out to the
precinct in which he is entitled
to vote on election day, making
1t easy to identify the voter by
comparing the signature on the
registration card with his sigma
ture on the poll book.
