10th Century-Fox's
'Thunderhead' Coming
To Theater Sunday

A thrilling horse race and an
exciting fight between two wild
horses are two of the action
packed scenes which make "Thun-
derhead-Son of Flicka," the
Twentieth-Cen Fox encore tri-
umph, coming to the Theater, an
exciting western production.
The picture, which has Roddy
Mcdowell, Preston Foster and
Rita Johnson in the feature roles,
also is a scenic triumph being
filmed in the fabulous wonder
land Of Bryce Canyon, Utah, the
famed Briday Veil Falls, Zion
National Park and Red Rock Can
yon. The fantastic formations in
the western mountain ranges
heighten the dramatic effect of
this eye-filling story of a boy and
his colt.
Written by Mary O'Hara, "Thun-
derhead-S Of Flicka" was a
best-seller in book form and the
perturbation Of this action packed
all-American story has proved
equally successful.

HORSES USE SNOWsHoES

VANCOUVER, BIC, Up - Some
horses have been taught to use
snowshoes on northern British
Columbia winter trails and Nor
ley Shier has produced snapshots
Of horses so equipped to convince
doubters.
Shier said at one time round
boards were used. Now horse
snowshoes are a circle Of 81 -inch
pipe, II inches in diameter, with
chains to the center and clips for
the toe and side.
AT first a horse is troubled, but
soon learns the trick of putting
one shoe over the other in walk
ing on snow. When a shoe gets
loose, the horse will stop, look
back and wait for an adjustment.

RURAL FIRE LOSS
HEAVY LAST YEAR

Bozcman-Despitc the fact
that the potential fire danger was
greater than in many years, fire
losses in Montana farms, range
and forest lands were lower in
1858 than in any year since 1850,
according to the annual report of
George w. Gustafson, state coor.
dinator of the Montana Fire
Fighters service.
Above normal stands of grass
on range and farm pasture lands
together with heavy stands of
grain and dry conditions in late
summer and fall combined to ere.
ate an exceptionally serious fire
hazard. he said. The fact that
fire lossccs were lower indicates
greater fire consciousness on the
part of the public and the in.
creased effort of rural people to
prevent fire.
In SO grass fires reported in
1858. only l3.3O4 acres of range
and crop land was burned with a
total loss of Sl9.ll7. In addition
some 1000 tons of hay was burn.
cd at a loss OF S26,8l5.
On the other hand. Gustafson
reports. the loss Of farm homes
and buildings was rather high in
1853 witht l35 unit fires reported
at an estimated loss of S4jl $50.
This was the third highest year
for such losses since 1850.
Scmirural fires. which in.
cludcs those damaging or de.
strOying property in small towns
that arc closely related to rural
life amounted to S4O6. 1865 in loss.
cs. according to the report.
All in all. Montana's losses
from rural fires last year amount.
ed to S934.677. Gustafson reports.
In other years tho total has run
we'll over a million dollars.
As in past years. he added. man

More equipment was added to
the rural fire fighting forces of

purpose under provisions of the
state rural fire control law. In
addition the contributions service
of the civil defense administra.
