sr's • s G Y,SER JUDITH. BASIN TIMES Published every Thursday at Geyser, Mont. R. H. Dudley, Editor and Publisher Entered as second-class matter March 25, 1911, at the postoffice at Geyser, Nlontana, under the act of March 3, 1879. Subecription: S1.00 per year in advance. In two weeks we will all know what we got for Christmas. Besides several other things, Geyser needs a hall where public gatherings in iy be held. In advertising always say what you believe if you want people to believe what you say. The turkey who escaped Thanks- giving has two more chances of becom- ing history. Some of these campaign promises should be canned, kept in dark places and opened in about two years from 110W. New York City has several hundred million eggs in Cold storage wearhouses. Most of the hens that laid them have gone to their reward. A newspaper 'out west' refused to print the Ten Commandments for fear some of its readers would think them too personal and stop the paper. A Paris chemets has at last solved the quektion: \What shall 1 wear to the party?\ He has invented dyes which change color hourly. The approach of winter does not hinder building operations in Geyser. There is plan on foot for a two story building which is a crying need of the owner. It seems that the Mississippi, that incomparable Father of Waters, has a rival. We refer to the sreele trust which is capatalized at $1,465,000,000, and more than $5000,000,000 of it is watered. Jack and Lucile were married last week and that settles the matter. Jack says \we love each other and I see no reason why we should not be., mar- ried.\ They will reside in a Chicago flat in the nigger quarters of the city. Yes, these are hard times. We throw away ashes and soap. We raise dogs and buy hogs. We grow weeds buy vegetables. We catch fish from a four dollar rod. We bMId school houses and send our children away from home to be educated. And last but not least, we send our boys out with a forty dollar gun and a twenty dollar dog to hunt ten cent game. Yes there are hard times, but whose fault is it? Don't place all the blame on the pres- ident and trust. The cold storage people who have been storing up eggs all summer are about to dump several million dozen hen fruit upon the market. The mild winter have kept the hen laying and spoiled the plans of the cold storage people who threaten to dump the whole works upon the market, and cause the price to go down to 10 cents per dozen. One would look with suspicion uron 10 cents a dozerreggs in this country. About the meanest man in any cons munity is the man that will stealwheat - Yet we have them. Wm. Heden, who lives a few miles west of town, reports that a day or two after the ,recent elec- tion his granary was visited and be- tween 40 and 50 bushels of wheat taken. The granary was about four miles northwest of town and was standing in a field where there was no one living. He said that wagon tracks . were followed for a short distance west and then on into town. He has a ' good clue to the thieves and some- thing is liable to happen.—Conrad Observer. Ridicule, condemn, berate the mule as you will, but there is one thing about a -mule that makes him worthy of all wonder and unstinted praise. It may be well to give a mule's heels plenty of leeway, but no one ever heard of a man woman or child being run over by a mule. You may set a baby down in the street and drive a thousand mules at a wild gallop down the street and not one of them would hurt that baby. You could not force a mule to run over or step on a child if you tried for a thousand years. Congregational Church Announcements.(From Friday Dec. 13, to Thursday, 19) Friday night—Choir practice A.

To praise and honor our Heavenly Father for his boundless love and priceless gifts, to promote peace among friends, neighbors and even among enemies; to live in the spirit of fraternal good will to do these three things is to bring a foretaste of heaven into this work a day world. The Angels song is the Great Message of Christianity to a needy world. \Swift thru the vast expanse it flew And loud the echo rolled; The theme, the song, the joy was new 'Twas more than heaven could hold Down from the portals of the sky The impetuous torrent rolled; And angels Hew with eager joy To bear the news to man.\ and at evening A few hours ride in an automobile will generally show a great differance in the manner of working the roads, especially in the building of culverts and bridges. Just what can cause an apparantly intelligent road supervisor to leave a plank bridge five or six in- ches higher than the grade of the sewer pipe without any earth covering it is something that calls for some guessing. The best money maker on the farm is the hen. She turns grass into green- t backs, grain into wild, and from sand and gravel she coins silver. I There is nothing else on the farm to compare with her. The horses and cattle are heavy consumers, and to get their value one must part with them, but not so with her. In her small way she is a gold mine on the face of the earth, a mill that grinds which others overlook and refuse. Notice. The old school house and out build- ing known as the \Fish school house\ will be sold at public auction to the highest bidder on December 21st, 1912.

As the long winter evenings are approaching a good way to spend them is in reading, we would recommend that you take the TIMES and have it commence coining immediately.
