JOHN BoSTICk DIES
AFTER LONG ILLNESS

John S. Bostick, long time resi-
dent of Browning and the Black
feet reservation, died at a hospi,
tai in Shelby on Tuesday of this
week, December 20, at the age OF
81.
Funeral services were held
Thursday at the Little Flower
church in Browning, and burial

Bostick was conspicuous
character in the community for
many years. He was considered
one of the best riders on the
range for many years. In his
younger days he suffered an in.
jury when a horse fell with him
that necessitated the amputation
of his left leg close to the hip
In spite of this handicap, he con,
tinued his range work for many
years, having to be helped on
and off his horse by fellow COW
men. Later he located in Brown
ing, and operated a pool hall and
recreation center for number
of years. He had a wide ac
quaintance throughout this en-
tire area.

THE GIFT THAT
MEANT EVERYTHING

Joram was one of the shep-
herds who heard the voice, Fear
not: for, behold, l bring you It'd
ings of great joy" luke 2:10)
He hurried to the manger, but
could not get close because of
the great throng. Nor had he
brought a gift After falling to
his knees in worship. Joram
started back to his flock.
You're not leaving now," said
fellow shepherd critically.
This is the night of alteration
and faith"
1T is wonderful" said Joram,
but there are many here. Jo-
seph and Mary and the Babe are
not lonely now
"A strange fellow" thought
the others.
A week later Joram returned
to Bethlehem. Although the
Star still shone brightly, it was
a lonely road now. There were
no Wise Men, no Magi, and the
last shepherd had departed. 81
was here before" Joram said to
Joseph. But l thought l could
be of more comfort now"
You are most thoughtful, "
said Joseph, who then told Joram
that he and Mary and the Child
must flee Egypt from the wrath
of Herod.
Il can help you get ready
said Joram. And he took Mary's
sandals and warmed them
against the wool of a lamb. Then
he removed the chill from her
robe by pressing it against the
warm body of an OK.
Suddenly the light that was
almost beyond endurance" re,
appeared in the manger, and
Joram saw Mary and the Infant
in a radiance such as few had
seen them. But he looked in
vain for all the gifts of which
he had barely caught glimpse
on the Holy Night. For the
second time | forgot a gift" he
Stammered. Where are all the
offerings"
You have brought the great
er gift" said Mary. 1T is the
gift of enduring love and sus,
tanned solicitude."
1t is not much" said Joram
1T is everything" said Mary
who SenSed that the radiant glow
of Christmas would fade toe
quickly from the heart of many
and that the true alteration
would be from those who re
turned to the crib in the weeks
months, and years following the
Holy Night.

Bus Schedules
Revised

Designed to make transfer priv
ileges more convenient and to eli
inmate long waiting periods, down.
town arrival and departure times
for municipal busses will be
changed Friday. In general, the
purpose is to bring busses on more
lines into the downtown district,
at the same time, allowing a slight
layover time so transfers can be
made.
The new schedule provides for
the same basic half-hour service,
with buses on 7 lines coming into
the downtown area at the same
time instead of buSSeS on only
three lines in at one time under
the old schedule. Arrival and de-
parture time of the Litchfield
Park and Glendale suburban lines
remain unchanged. These are on
hourly schedules.
The City Council has approved
purchase of five used busses from
Greyhound Lines, subject to bids
to be opened Monday. These Al and
45 passenger busses will be used
on suburban lines. Eight smaller
gasoline busses will be declared
surplus and will be offered for sale.
If the five busses are purchased
and the eight surplus busses are
sold, the net fleet will be 67 buses.
The Division of Transportation
is constantly studying ways and
means of reducing cost of operat-
ing the system. At present u driv-
ers are used each week day to
handle the 18 lines. This is a re-
duction of five from the II drivers
used daily until recently when a
new plan of operating extra busses
for rush periods was instituted.

1.-TWO years ago the Arthur

headlines. For in March, 1858,
Chris Gle, local reporter, pub

attempted lynching in Cochice
County; of how sheriff's posse
threw a rope around the neck of
Arthur Thomas and forced him to
confess to the murder of jamie
Miscovich, storekeepr, near Will
cox, Arizona. This story forced
Arizona Governor Pyle to investi-
gate; subsequently the FBI entered
the case. Then came the Cover

lease the report of his investigat-

Tax Reduction Official

The City Council Tuesday Off
cially adopted a tax rate of $1.75
for the 1856 fiscal year, a re-
duction of 10 cents from the $1.85
rate that has been in effect for
three years. The SITS rate repre-
sents a reduction of 1872 per cent
from the $2.28 rate of 1949-5O This
reduction has been made in the
face of steadily expanding popu-
lation and area. On January 1,
1850, the population was 102,584
and on July 1, 1855, it was 155, 1888
an increase of 51.4 per cent. For
the same periods the area in
creased from 1874 square miles, to
29.0 square miles, an increase of
1873 per cent.
