, GEYSER JUDITH! BASIN TIMES Published every Thursday at Geyser, Mont. M. E. Parrish, Editor end Publisher Entered as second-class matter March 25, 1911, at the postoffice at Geyser, Montana, under the act of March 3, 1879. THURSDAY, AUG. 8, 1912 THE LAST -WORD They say the \last word\ is a wo- man's privilege. We do not wish to intrude on any lady's rights, nor shall we. We simply mean that this is probably the last published statement in regard to the special school work we are expecting to initiate at Geyser. We have plenty to do and the dis- trict has plenty of use for its money. No one is doing us a favor by attend- ing. In fact we wish no one to tie up with this work who is not dead in earnest and ready to work and sacrifice some social pleasures for it. Those who go away to business college and spend their nights largely: in running around, would, in the majority of cast* be better off at home. A person gets out of school work 'just what he or she puts into it. For the young person who means business, we have something. For such, time and money will be gladly given. It is with this thought that we have decided to eliminate tuition charges. Books, board and a slight incidental fee for fuel and janitor ser- vice will constitute the chief expense. In order that the school board and teacher may know the number of pu- pils and the department of work for which they wish to register, we are sending out the following blank form. This may be filled in and mailed to Thomas Harney, clerk of the board of trustees. Those wishing to avail them- selves of this opportunity will render great assistance by sending in their names at once. School furniture and supplies should be ordered within the next 'o or three weeks: 4 We should hardly feel that we \ would be justified in organizing this work with less than twelve pupils. E. B. S. APPLICATION BLANK Providing that a sufficient number of pupils register for work to justify the institution of these special courses. I hereby pledge myself to the department of work indicated below: [] Regular high school work, first year (34 weeks). [_ Elementary business course (12 and 24 weeks. Li Teachers' course (32 wks.) Note.—Indicate course by a X in square. (Name) • (Address) • • Merino Bench (Continued from page 1) land deep, working it down thorough- ly and putting the seed in at the proper time. The gardens are all well taken care of to such an extent we are inclined to think they reflect more credit on the housewife than to the farmer. These people of Merino bench are certainly progressive and are forging ahead in the face of certain adverse conditions. One of these, and the principal one, is the lack of a good road to town. The road on which they must come is impassible for heavy loads in dry weather and when flooded by rains it is a . hard road for even buggies, the crossings being such that it is hard for ladies to attempt the drive alone. There are only a few had places that make all this trouble and it would not cost over one hundred dollars in cash to fix them up so that it wmild be possible to use the road until the regular county road is put in. It is understood that the farmers of the bench are willing to furnish teams for what work would be necessary and we people of Geyser should get together and furnish the material for a couple of small culverts which it would he necessary to put in. There should be something done as there will be a portion of the fall crop hauled here, and it will also give these people a road to do their trading. Let us help to get a road through for them. A drive out from here will convince anyone of its necessity. SNAPSHOTS AT NOTABLES W. F. McCombs, Democratic National Chairman. 1152. by American Press Association. William F.
