in one and then imagine Jesus
in the other. Talk to Him as

praying that way for these past
60 years. | was just praying, talk
ing with Jesus, before you came
in"
A few days later the grand
daughter of the old fellow came
into the study of the minister and
said: Pastor, grandfather died
just this morning. And when they
found him his hand was lying on
the chair he had pulled up close
beside the bed
That is our prayer-talking to
Jesus as friend to friend. Hold
ing out our hand to grasp that of
the Savior in that last moment
that he might lead us into the
presence of God, his Father and
ours.
Isn't that simple? Just talk
with Jesus, face to face, and we
need not learn how to pray, we
need learn only to recognize the
presence of the Saviour of man.

sits beside us every moment of
every day.
Prayer changes things. And if
you and | and every other Chris
tian person would only pray for
a consciousness of Gods plan for
each of US, it would not be very
long until we would have a new
world of hope and assurance and
peace. Will you pray?
The Glacier reporter. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1953-current, 1955-07-01
BY Rev. Geo. S. Ritehey, Pastor
Browning Methodist Church

What is prayer? What do you
mean by the word? What do
you do when you pray? What
words do you use? What thoughts
do you put into the prayer? Just
how selfish is your prayer?
One of the greatest ills of our
world today is that we who pro-
claim ourselves to be Christians
either do not pray or do not know
how to pray. May suggest two
things to you at this time-If
you do not pray, and pray with
a certainty and an assurance,
you are not one of Gods child
rem. And secondly, one does not
learn how to pray, the knowl-
edge comes with our own desire
to talk with God and to be closer
to Him in our spiritual life.
l heard a story not long ago
from a well-known clergyman,
about an old Scotsman who lay
in a hospital very near to death.
His pastor came into the room to
visit one day and he saw, when
he had entered the room, a chair
drawn up close to the bed, fac
ing the old man. The Scotsman
pushed the chair back and in
vited the minister to sit down.
Then he said:
I've been praying and had the
chair beside my bed where
could look at it. You know, that
is Jesus chair"
I'm afraid l don't quite under
stand, Angus" said the minister.
About the chair" asked the
old Scotsman. when l was a
boy said my prayers at evening
after my work in my fathers
fields, but l was always so tired
that before l had said many
words l was asleep. 1t worried
me and l spoke to my pastor
about it, but he said, Angus,

a comparatively simple project.
However, it will remain with
Wenzel to supply the answer, the
problem he has been employed
to solve.
To this end the mayor and
council have voted to appropri-
ate $1,000 as an initial step in
the quest.

plished better with cable tools

One significant fact is that
no water has been encounter
ed in the we'll, and il is now
several hundred feet in the
Madison lime.
Whatever are the actual facts,
a general feeling of optimism
is quite apparent, and many peo-
pie who are supposed to keep
in touch with such things are of
the opinion that good results
will be announced before too
long, and that possibly some
thing sensational may be forth
coming. 1t is also believed that
if the Morning Gun well makes
something comparable to the big
production just across the Cana
dian line in the Pincher Creek
field by Gulf Oil company, a
rush of activity by the major
companies will result all along
the mountain front area.
Other Activities
Other activities on the oil
front are not so promising, as
Continental, after announcing a
location northwest of Browning,
have now decided to postpone
drilling at least for another year,
and from all indications, the
Amy-Douglas we'll, started in
1858 on the Douglas ranch near
the Babb road, northwest OF
Browning, about 25 miles, will not
be drilled this year The COM
pany's lease expires July l, and
despite efforts on the part of the
sponsors of the venture. it seems
no results have been accomplish
ed.
The test that was made south
of Waller on the Strandvold farm
has been completed, with no re-
suits, and the hole has been
plugged and abandoned.
The test near the HARDWOOD
place, southwest of Browning, is
drilling ahead, but has not reach
ed the decisive state as yet.
An independent outfit is drill
ing a few miles almost due
south of Dupuyer five or six
miles. This was announced as a
1000 feet test, but it is generally
felt that this location is within
the confines Of the so-called dis,
turbed area along the mountain
front, and that much deeper
drilling will be necessary to get
results.

Most of the other activities in

Pan Am and Northwest Trade Verbal Punches
 Over Great Circle Route

SAN FRANCISCO, R-NOrth- west Airlines and Pan American World Airways, competing for great circle flying to the Orient, traded verbal punches Saturday in a meeting of western states airlines and Chamber of Com merce officials.
 Ed Floan, Northwest vice presi- dent, circulated five page state ment accusing Pan American of "besieging newspapers n d Chambers of Commerce with "biased presentations" of the great circle argument.
 The Civil Aeronautics Board has granted Northwest exclusive right to the route and deferred a Pan American request to fly it until it has developed jet plane equipment.
 Floan said the Pan American statements urge that immediate grant of the great circle pro- posal is imperative to reduce government subsidy and elimin- ate waste of taxpayers money"
 Col. Clarence M. Young, Pan Americans Pacific-Alaska chief told the conference he wanted to make "a passing reference to the paper passed out to you"

House Trims Public Works And Road Monies From Funds For This Year

WASHINGTON, R-The House Appropriations Committee today cut $9,O24,00O from requested ap- populations in the Interior De- partment fund bill for territories during the year beginning July 1.
 Of this amount five million dollars was trimmed from re- quests for Alaskan Public Works and three million dollars from Al aska road construction.
 President Eisenhower's budget had recommended five millions for Alaska Public Works for the coming year compared with $9,- 500,00O this year.
 The committee, in disallowing the entire request, said it ap- proved the program submitted but that unobligated balances of funds previously appropriated should be sufficient to carry on the work proposed in 1955-56.
 For the same reason, the com mittee Slashed three million from requests for construction of roads in Alaska. It approved $4,8OO,OOO for that purpose compared with this years appropriation of eight million and the budget recom- mendation of $7,8OO,OOO. It said it also approved that program.

Attempt Fails To Increase Cigaret Tax To 7 Cents
By JIM HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, R-An attempt was made in the Alaska Senate yes terday to increase the tax on cigarets from 5 cents a pack to 2 cents, but it failed on a 13 to 3 vote.
 The proposal came while the Senate was passing House-ap- proved measure to remove the special tobacco tax from cigars and other forms of tobacco and concentrate it only on cigarettes under a sharply frightened collec- ton law.
 The Senate passed the measure and sent it back to the House after amending it to provide that wholesalers would be entitled to keep one per cent of the tax collections they make as com pensation for their added trouble.
 The tobacco tax monies go entirely to the school construc- ton fund.
 Estimates were made the new law TIT which is aimed even at stopping individuals from ship ping in their personal supplies of cigarets tax-free from stateside dealers - would add close to a million dollars in added collec- tions during the biennium.
 In proposing to raise the tax to ' cents a pack, Sen. Butrovich said it could add another S9OO,- 900 for the biennium, but the 13 to 3 vote against the proposal came after merchants in the Sen ate protested that cigaret taxes already are too high.
