Dies at Belt. At an early hour Saturday morning Andrew P. McAnelly, one of the best known members of the Cascade County Bar association, died at his home in Belt of acute gastritis. The illness was brief, covering a period of but a few days. Up to a late hour Saturday afternoon no plans had been announced for the funeral other than those made by the local members of the bet association, who selected pall- bearers , from the association and also arranged to draft appropriate resolutions. Andrew P. McAnelly was 53 years of age, and was born in Maryland. He came to Montana 30 years ago, locating in Red Lodge and later settling in Miles City. Eightien years ago he located in Cascade county, and was a resident of Belt all of that time, with the exception of two years. Those years were spent in Great Falls. As an attorney Mr. McAnelly enjoyed an enviable reputation, having built up a splendid practise. For the past two years he acted as •United States com- missioner. He is survived by his wife, a son six years of age, residing in Belt, an aged mother, James McAnelly. and two sisters, Mrs. Frank Linhoff and Miss Annie McAnelly, residents of Gieat Falls.—Great Falls Leader. Ceo. Knerr was a city visitor the fore par ofthe week. There are sJrne money saving ads in this issue of the TIMES this week and they are placed there for you . to read.

Although the winter wheat had not been suffering ,any for want of moisture, it will be a boon to this crop.—it. Benton lode- liendent. -• Just a word once again—All matter intended for publication should reach this office before Wednesday noon to insure its publication that week. The reason for this is that it takes an extra day to place into type the copy that has already accumalated and if extra copy comes in it makes the paper late. It is our intention to publish the Times on Thursday of each week and we must have all copy intended for that week in our hands in time so that it can be set. A moments thojight on the part of the contributer will solve this and will assist us in being on time. Don't bring in anything after Wednesday noon, for we do not like to refuse. • The dance given last Saturday eve- ning was a decided success so far as the music was concerned, but the number attending was not as large as it would have been had it not been for the storm which made going almost impossible. However, there was a jolly crowd present who enjoyed themselves to the utmost, and especially did they enjoy the refreshments which • were served at the Geyser hotel. The Cahalan orchestra furnished the music and all are speaking a good word for them. • The orchestra are to give a dance here either on the 25th of this month or on the 8th of Feb- ruary, the exact time cannot be given at present but will be published later. The local newspaper is indespen- sible to any town that has any get -tip about it. It is one of the necessaries of the farmer and buiiness man. It jitits the ball in motion when any new enterprise is proposed that would be a benefit to the town ., and -the com- munity in which it is published. It keeps a record of the happenings of the town and the surrounding country, and is read a thousand miles away by persons who are hunting a home and a placl to invest their money. It booms 'lour town and gives it a name abroad that it wduld otherwise not have. It points out the advantages of its town and county so that the world may see it, and when a man gets mad it takes a \clissing''as cooly as any- body, but hews stiaight to the line just the same. There are thousands of reasons why' a town should support a newspaper, but the greatest of all is be- cause it pays and pays well to support it. From now on until March the 1st. our store will be closed at 7:00 o'clock in the evening. Purdy Trading Co. For high grade, fancy and staple groceries, see Purdy Trading Co. They always carry a complete up to date, fresh line of groceries and they treat you right. MERINO. Colder weather and snow rs quite a relief from the high winds of Decem- ber, also is a benefit to the wheat crop. During the storm Friday night which was something fierce, Mr. Withers out nearly all night hunting his way home from Merino Siding. The following night Mrs. Hipicka would have perished had she not been able to get to I. G. Finfrock's when she did, which was about nine o'clock, with her hands and face quite badly frosted. We feel it is time something should be done to get something do- ing at Merino. In spite of the cold Sunday. there were some sled riders out on the bench Mrs. Alger arrived at Merino, Thursday of last week, with her three daughters. ' Sunday it was reported that the youngest of the children was sick, but was improving Monday. Merino school closed Monday on account of bad %%eacher.

Nlae and Flor- ence LaVoie, jw.. Lavoie, .1r. and Maurice Galian attended the mock wedding of Mr. and Mts. Tom Thumb's daughter, at the Ray nsford School \FuesdaS' evening. After the wedding they all danced until morn- ing. All report a line time. Quiet a number of the neighbors spent Wednesday evening at NI r. La - vows home, playing cards and dancing till late.

Quite a few of the young folks on the Ridge were planning on going to Geyser last Saturday night, but on ac- count of stormy weather they post- poned the trip. SPION KOP W. C. Paulson inventoured the Spion Kop lumber yard the latter part of the week. Mr. Paulson was at the last general election chosen by the people of Choteau county as one of thier representatAs in the present legislature, he with others from that district being elected on well definpid issues favorable to the farming interests of the State. It is a helpful sign of the agricultural progress of the State where the farmers unite and elect men to form our laws who will futher their interests and elect men to frame our laws and assist us in remedying some exisitng evils. P. B. McAllister of Geyser spent Sunday here with friends: - Miss Esther Anderson returned ti her studies in Great Falls Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph A.

Peterson and Miss Sylvia Swan, attended the enter- tainment and dance given by the Ca- halan Bros. Orchestra at Geyser last Saturday night, and report a very en- joyable time.

' Ii Christmas Morning. It was Christmas morning. The clock had Just struck four When two tiny bare feet Stepped out on the floor. They tiptoed quite softly Without making a sound, And two chubby hands Grabbed the stockings so round. Then a sweet little voice Laughed softly In glee, )'or old Krieg had filled That stocking as full as could be There were nuts and candles, Sugar plums and toys And funny made animal. That squeaked a queer nolsei. Next wee jumping jacks On bright yellow sticks, And the last gift of all Was a box full of tricks. Then the dear little voice Whispered quite low: \Oh thank you, dear Krissy, For treating me so! \FS creep back In bed And go quite fast asleep, And beside me till morning My presents keep. \Good night, dear Kest KrIngle!\ A sleepy voice said, Then, tired and happy, Crept back Into bed. Talking about Chriatmas stockings. a good game to play at your Chrlatmas party is the following: A sheet on which is painted a full abie fireplace is hung on one side of the room. Every child having been provided with a tiny stocking with is pin at the top. each In turn is blindfolded and told to go to the fireplace and pin his stocking where Santa would be most likely to see It. If he succeeds in piecing It anywhere near the fireplace a tiny toy Is slipped Into his stocking before 1he cover Is removed from his eyes If lie is far from the mark his stocking Is left empty. Whether you play the game or not, we hope Santa will AU your stocking on Christmas.
