NO. 31 Only Iwo Natural Fears Psychologista astitntaln there alit only two natural fears, namely the fear of falling, If unsupported, and the fear of a loud unexpected noise. How - seer, fear of the dentist Is well-nigh universal and according to Maynard K. Gine, In the Modern Psychologist. It comes chiefly from parents telling children of their own painful experi- ences In the dentist's chair and be- cause the patient never knows last when the dentist is going to jab his Instruments into some unexpected nerve center. This tear of the UNIX - ported pain doubles the pain. \Island of Fisheries's\ The French colony in the north Atlantic ocean, off the coast of New- foundland, comprising two small groups of Islands, known as St. Pierre and Miquelon, are the only possessions left to France of her once powerful pos- sessions In North America. The \Is- land of Fishermen\ consists mainly of barren rock and the chief occupation of the Inhabitants is cod fishing. The area is 93 square miles anti St. Pierre It the capital. \The Southern Cross\ A pearl oyster found by pearl fish- ers in western Australia In 1874 was discovered to have formed nine pearls Instead of one, and these were fastened together In the shape of a crofts. The occurrence was taken to be a miracul- ous sIgn by the fishermen, and the pearl ernes under the name of \The Sonthern (Irma\ twain* famous In the annals of tndustry. The Belldes Although the bulldog is no longer a Milky animal. Me hifInence on the eantne race has been considerable, ft Is said that even to Its most diluted form the blood of the bulldog trans- mits Its qualities to every descendant. and that his todomitable courage has been passed on to every breed with which he has been crossed. Valley Forge Valley Forge received its name from Valley Forge Creek, and the creek received Its name from the Mount Joy Iron Works, which were built on the stream, 19 miles northwest of Phil- adelphia. The foundry was known lo- cally as \the valley forge\ and In time the stream was called that, too. The site of the camp la now a state park. Proof Coins Proof • coins are colas especially struck from polished blanks and diet,: and finished by hand, which gives them a mirror-like, smooth, reflective sur- face, the most nearly perfect condition known. The mint makes a small chars for the proof coins, and they can be had only during the year of the issue. Buddy Tradition in France The \copain\ or buddy tradition Is so firmly implanted in the French For- eign Legion that when a Legionnaire gets into trouble, his copaln Is sup- posed to follow suit so that he can go to the guardhouse with him. Animals' Weapons Horns and antlers are among the most familiar weapons of animals. The horns of domestic bulls are well known by any farmer for their effectiveness, and so are those of domestic rams of certain breeds. Japan's Oyster Farms Five million oysters are planted each rear In the famous pearl farms of Japan, where oysters are deliberately started on their pearl growing activities by a bit of shell inserted In each oyster's body. Length of Life All life Insurance records show a marked superiority In the health and longevity of the more privileged classes end also show that length of life Is largely a matter of Inborn heredity. Wool Was Wasted The ancient Chinese kept both sheep and goats, but the idea of utilizing the wool of the sheep was foreign to them until taught so by others. Corn Taken West by White Men The corn plant, so widely distributed In ancient America, was not grown by Indians along the Pacific ectest before white men came. Bone CJaci Aids Yeast Producsr Bone glue, In common use as an ad- hesive. Is also made an Ingredient of plastics and a source of nitrogen In pro firming yeast.

Earliest Gam. Law Previous to the Norman Conquest, there were no restrictimis on the hunting of game In England, except a general law prohibiting hunting on Sunday. So far as is known, this was the earliest game law, SNAPPY BLASTS What the young boy rips, the mother Tough modest, • musician will Wow. A bank check Is the beet chock to poverty. One of the pretty sights in cities are the children. No grammarian was ever known to decline Once. Those who annoy others by whistling are never aware of it. Even people who haven't money to burn manage to burn some. Wise men are not paid to be silent. They are paid to speak. Your outdoor manners tail the world what you are when at home. One can't be cultured and ruispro• nounce half the new word.. When a man wears loud clothes a girl turns a deaf ear to his suit. The more that people like you, the less they will blab stories on you. Intelligence rules; the world, and no rem of government can change that Tact. Today's Invention Is the mother of mote of the activities of the next gen- eration At sirty one might quit his work and devote his entire time to living to be eighty. The commonest objection to any tax bill Is that It doesn't hit the other fellow hard enough. Many of our happy memories of our youth are illusions; but neverthe- less blessed for all that. Too closely living with anyone for a long time has Its perils. A little more lonesomeness is better. This world haa reached a period when apparently Ignorance has no filliaine—flindine that It has so much company. Bank Protected by Tear Gas Within the last few years tear gas has come into wide use for protecting banks. One effective method of safe protection is designed after the pres- ent-day burglar alarm. A gas shell Is placed in a barrel mounted near the top of the safe and pointing downward. The firing plunger La held back by a magnet. A wire crisscrossing the safe door carries the current to the magnet When the surface of the door is brok- en the wire is severed, this cuts off the current. and the magnet releases the firing plunger W1111'11 sets off the ellen, shooting the gas down in front of the safe. Some banks are also equipped with gas shells mounted above tellers' windows. They are operated by elec- tric buttons and are designed to thwart daytime robberies.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. Glass From Coal Unbreakable \glasa\ from coaitar: aluminum from common clay; gold from sea water—these are some of the marvels of our modern world. The \glass\ is really a synthetic resin. It is one of the discoveries of the depart• ment of scientific and Industrial re- search, and articles made from it were on view recently at an exhibition at Cardiff. The new product is as clear and transparent as glass, but only half as heavy. And it seems to he unbreek able.—Answers Magazine. Fire Bell for Village Phone To make the only telephone in a Derbyshire village of England efficient, a fire bell has been installed outside the post office, home of the instrument. Whenever a call comes from the out- side world the fire bell gives the alarm. At least half a dozen villagers rush to the phone anti either take the call themselves or . find the Individual for whom it was Intended. Every child in the village has been instrneted how to Use the telephone. Pigeons Lose Homing Instinct About 70 per cent of the homing pigeons released in the United States last summer failed to return home. The loss of the homing instinct is un- accounted for by officials of racing pigeon associations, who say that noth- ing like it has occurred in the thou- sands of years In whkh the birds have been raced —Detroit News.

RED CROSS REPORTS BUSY YEAR AIDING DISASTER VICTIMS Tornadoes, Fires, Hurricanes, Floods, Epidemics, Make Record of Year The American Red Cross assisted suf- ferers in more disasters throughout the United States during the year ending June 80, 1935, than through any similar period In the peacetime history of the organization, Admiral Can T. Gray. son, chairman, revealed recently In commenting on the annual report which has just been released. \The 128 domestic disasters in which the Red Cross extended aid during the SSW year exceeded by 56 per cent the averkge over the past few years,\ Ad- miral Grayson said. \Not only was the period heavy in the number of disasters, but the geographical distribution was wide, with 37 States and t63 counties affected. \Through these disasters and times of community distress, the Red Cross assisted 110,000 persons,\ the Admiral disclosed. Spectacular service was rendered In many disasters because of the unique nets of the problems and the far-flung points affected. The work of the Na- tional organization covered in the re- port carries stories of the Morro Castle burning; the trench -mouth epidemic In the beautiful San Luis Valley of Co'.' redo; the great fight over a wide front in the mid -west dust bowl against respiratory diseases; floods, hurricanes, and tornadoes in many sections of the United States. In addition to the disasters taking place within the continental limits of this country. Admiral Grayson pointed out that work had been made necessary by (Hamsters in Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines, where 26 disasters were recorded in that archipelago. The American Society also assisted the Red Cross of two foreign countries In rar- ing for victims of floods and earth- quakes. The variation of types of disasters called for expert council on matters re- lating to health and nutrition as well as eptdimic prevention. Last year's work proved the value of the structure and administration of the Red Cross disaster relief, the Admiral said, the very frequency of occurrence and the variety of types constituting a sivere test of the organization chartered by Congress to handle this type of Na- tional relief. Expenditures of the Red Cross for re- lief of persons stricken by disasters within the continental United States amounted to $464,413. In addition. $75.- 000 was sent to the Philippines to as - slat them in three major relief opera- tions necessitated by typhoons, $5.000 went to victims of the Indian earth- quake, and $5,000 to Poland for victims of severe floods. A number of smaller foreign emergencies called for sums to- taling $2.500. The months of February, March, April. May and June were heaviest for tornado disasters. Floods occurred throvgbout the year. Serious fires calling for Red Cross assistance took place during July and December. A devastating explosion took place in Tennessee during April. Most of the hurricanes struck States klong the east coast during the fail and early winter. \All of this assistance to persons in distress,\ Admiral Grayson pointed out, \was only possible through generous contributions made by citizens in all sections of the country.\ Most of this support of the disaster relief service comes from the annual Roll Call held each year from Arm is - tics Day to ThatikagivIng Dar A Long Range The Roeky-Andenit range of moan- tnins begins in Alaska and extends all the way to Patagonie. 100 -Pound Stout Used as Coin The south Pacific island of Yap uses stone coins some of which welch mere than 100 pounds.

She left Butte by way of plane for her home in Logan, Ohio. Tigers Defeat Cards An interested crowd of fans watched a spirited ball game be- tween two teams chosen from a- mong the best players in the school. Lee Wildung started the assault against the offerings of Dick Haun of the Tigers with a hard smash to center for a home run. But, to qnoth the immor- tal Thayer, there the rally ended and Dick settled down. After six innings of lively baseball, the Tigers were on the happy end cif the 8 fo 10 score, Flax The Flax school has been in progress over a month and many pupils have absent on account of illness. Athalie Collins is board- ing with Miss Wildung. Her aunt, Mrs. E. D. Trotter brings her every Monday and comes for her Friday evening. Vern Rich had a record of per- fect attendance for the first month of school. The fifth grade pupils have completed a clay replica of the Boonesville Fort. It is now on exhibition.

BEAUTY TALKS BY Marjorie Duncan 4:ge. •••••••••••••••••• THE HOME FACIAL rjaVING arranged your hi,titity ar- ticles and adjusted your head band, you are ready for the first step In your home treatment. Pour a little akin tonic In one of the small glass howls. Moisten one of the small pads In the skin tonic and add the cleansing cream to the pad. Start cleansing with sweeping upward movements on the neck, up and around the neck, then on the face—three upward motions on either side of the face. Then around the chin, around the mouth, down on the nose and across the forehead. Always he sure to use an upward motion. Applying the cleansing cream with a moistened pad of cotton is the best method and really cleanses the skin thoroughly, not only removes surface dust, but penetrates the pores. Having applied the cream all over neck and face, remove it with cleans- ing tissues. They are soft and silky and do not stretch the shin—and are economical to use in the long run be- cause they save your towels and laun- dry bills. Remove the cream .111S1 as you applied It—with upward sweep- ing movements. Now, with the face really clean we go to the second step, which is: Saturate the large patter In the Iced skin tonic. Start patting the neck, us- ing a quick, staccato movement—a quick, slapping movement to whip tip the circulation. Now up on the face, pat at the corners of the mouth, then across the mouth, then under the chin, then the other xltle of the fare—keep patting hriskiy tintil your skin tingles. Hold the patter over the Ice for minute then knead under the eye and over the eyelids. Ice again. Repeat. This is excellent for puffiness tinder the eyes. By kneading, I mean a gen- tle pressing and lifting motion, work- ing from the corner of the eyes out to temple both above and below the eyes. Our skin needs exercise just as our body does, and patting with the skin tonic Is the way to exercise it. Not just sponging the skin, but brisk pat- ting for several minutes. This will stimulate the circulation, will help to normalize the oil content If the akin is too oily. or remove the flakiness we find in a dry skin. Don't use skin tonic indifferently—use it regularly— daily. The skin needs constant study. No- tice that it is Inclined to he more dry in the winter and moist, normal or even e little oily in the summer. No- tice how certain preparntions affect it. Treat it to the diet that seems to be kind to it. Three things are necessary toward perfect results in caring for the skin: first a definite understanding of your oven skin, second the choice of prep- eretions sniffed to it, and third the per- pistent Use of these preparations In ale right way. Winifred Taxes Are Ninth Lowest In State That when taxes are raised be- yond a certain point, tax delin- quency rapidly increases is indicated by the fact that In the counties in which the lowest tax- ed towns are located all but 13.5% of the taxes were paid last year, while in the counties where the highest town taxes were levied, 30.5% remained unpaid. The higher the tax the greater the delinquency, but if many of the delinquents will pay up their bills before December 1st, while penalty and interest is not requi- red, towns should be able to re- duce their tax rates for next year. The average town tax on a basis of $3,500.00 valuation, is $103.65. The owner of a like valuation in the town of Wini- fred wouid pay a tax of $75.00. Culbertson pays the highest tax, $153.55 and Cascade pays the lowest, $67.64. Winifred is among the ten lowest taxed towns in MOntana. The tax for town purposes is next to the smallest. A home owner in Winifred pays from $25 to $30.00 less on the same valued home than in any other town in Fergus County.

When a celebrating American becomes too holatermis, it is enatnmary to \deport\ him by kieking him out Of the front door rind into another reentry. 'ills Objective Sought In commenting on the foregoing pro- gram, Mr. Hecht says that it is not \the primary objective to attract attention particularly to the American Bankers Association as such, but rather to fo- cus attention on and give impetus to those ideas which it believes are bene- ficial In promoting understanding and solidarity among banking, business and the public.\ He adds: \Our program for the development of satisfactory public relations for banking does not consist merely of newspaper publicity. ft Is calculated to produce a continuous and cumula- tive effect by varied efforts which are aimed to work day In and day out to strengthen the real basin for good opin- ion in regard to the banks. \To have favorable things said about the banking business -in the newspapers and over the radio Is. the association recognizes, very helpful toward creating a sound public opin- ion regarding banking. Rut the asso dation believes that the most Impor tent thing ultimately Is to totter throughout the banking profession the doing sincerely of those things that reflect favorably the sound, help ful practices of the business of bank ing, and that then the true news of Its constructive activities will constitute the best answers to misrepresentationa aimed at hanks and hankers.\ Predicts Farm Loan Expansion NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J. — With marked improvement In agriculture already apparent. and further Improve rnent confidently expected, a greatly expanded volume of farm credit will be required, especially short-term credit, according to a statement here recently by W. 1. Myers, Governor of the Farm Credit Administration, Wash. Ington, D. C. lie Was speaking berm , the Graduate School of Banking, con- ducted jointly by the American Inati lute of Banking Section of the Ameri- can Rankers Association and Rutgers University. \Some people have expressed a feat that the Cooperative Production Credit' Associations are threatening the busi- ness of country bank*. but these In stitutions have neither the desire nor the resources to monopolize a field which is still In the infancy of develop- ment,\ Governor Myers said \Farmers who get their credit on time or by charge accounts have a basis for cash loans and should he buying their credit from a bank, production credit amsoci talon or other Inatitutione that Pell credit on a business basis.\ R.

Portrait of An American By RAYMOND PITCAIRN National Chairm'an —.-Sentitteb4 of thc Republic Who is the typical American? Just what is he like? There seems to be doubt on these questions in the minds of many men in public office today. Much of our recent legislation suggests that they regard him as willing to swap his American birthright of independence and opportunity for the lifeless regi- mentation now imposed on certain populations abroad. But there should be no such con- fusion. A protrait of the typical Ameri- can was clearly drawn in the Bill of Rights of our Federal Constitution. Read it and you will see that he is a man who stands firmly for: Freedom of religion. freedom of law- ful speech, freedom of the wefts, free- dom of peaerable assembly . The right to he secure against un- reasonable search and seizure, Lo be immune from governniental inquisition. to trial by jury in all civil as well as riminal cases . . . The guarantee that he shall not be deprived of life, liberZy or property without due proems or law, and that he shall be protected in all these and other rights even against government itself. In that insistence on definite rights and powers Ls reflected, I maintain, a true picture of the real American citi- zen -the man who works and earns and saves and on whose character and effort depends all the strength of our government. It has stood unchanged for almost a century and a half. It remains as accurate today as when first drafted. When our politicians get that picture cleanly in mind we shall see fewer efity.:::: to inject into our government the ideas of a regimented Europe.— whose tragic effects we read daily in dispatches from across the sea. Amerira, our lawmakers should re- mcleter. stilt full of Americans— sons anti daughters of the hardiwit, most self-reliant breed of pioneers and 111;crty-lovers the world has ever seen. No one can take away their Individual fre••dom—aml make them like it. The Iti , 1 of Rights still remains our national portrait.
