Commercial Organization Directors Select Officers
for Year, Choice for Executive Head Being
Well Known Young Business Man.

The choice of Mr. Call to the position
of president of the club was a popular
one and one that will meet with general
approval by the membership of the club,
It has been the policy of the commercial
club to allow the office of president
to seek the man with the view to having;
the one honored by selection being the
one believed by the board to be best
suited to the needs of the time in the
club's activities. That policy has kept
the organization free from any politi
cal factions and since that has been the
order of procedure the commercial clubi
has been notably free from any factional!
divisions or frictions that such beget.
The selection of Mr. Call to the presi
dency of the club keeps the management!
of affairs of the club in the hands of!
the young men who have been so active
in the past few years in its committee
work and in looking after the club's in
terest. Mr. Call has been one of the ag
gressive members of the club and Iiis
interest in ir.s success was the chief;
factor in determining him as the logical
man to be placed at the executive head
af it.
Mr. Call came to Great Falls to jive
in 1910 when the company of which he
is the secretary decided to make this city

B. & M. Smelter Lacks Con
firmation by Officiais.
During the past few day* minor ;• • •
been persistent that the 15. & M sü .
was about to be closed down. Just where
the rumor emanated from "vas rmt ap
parent and there was it.. ..ne who had
an authorized' version as t.. when j=:-r
why but the rumor continued to flit
about.
General Superintendent A. K. Wijrsm
of the II. & M. was asked by The Tri

for the report and he said that so far
as he knew, there was no reason for
the report to be current. "I know of no
plan to stop work at the smelter," said
Mr. Wiggin. "We are working the rod
and wire mill, the zinc plant and the cop
. per refineries, and so far as I have in
formation there is no plan to cease the
activities."
Mr. Wiggin s:pd that any plan that
might result in closing the plant would
come from the general offices of the
company, but he had heard nothing hint
ing of a close down at the smelter.

IYET STANDS BY
HIS FIRST STORY
Man Arrested Trying to Get
Drug Shipment Says He
Asked for Another.
If H. Itivet. the man arrested Tues
day night on thé suspicion that he was
improperly connected with a shipment of
powdered opium and morphine from
Seattle and which he twice called for
nr. the L'nited Itailwaj-s Express office
before he was picked up. can make the
talc he told yesterday to the police and
tc Deputy Revenue Collector L. II. Mann
stand up. he will, in the opinion of Chief
Marcus Anderson, establish a new record
for creating fiction and proving it true.
Rivet told the officers that he met
veterinarian here early this month who
gave the name of E. A. Jameson and
who arranged with htm to forward cer
tain packages that would come by ex
press and mail from Seattle. One pack
age was forwarded January 9, Rivet
eiaims, the one confiscated yesterday by
Deputy Mann bf'ir.g the second to arrive,
lie knew little about Jameson. he
claimed, but undertook to forward the
shipments as a means of doing a favor
to a friendly stranger altho Le did not
know what the x ature of the consign
ments would be.
The prisoner shows orders on the
express company bearing the name of
Jameson, but Deputy Mann suggested
that the handwriting was exactly similar
to Rivet's. The suspect could not account
for the similarity. He would know Jame
son if he should see him again, he thinks,
bat does not know where he is now. He
was to forward the packages to Havre.
Deputy Mann lias learned that there
is a veterinarian of the name of Jame
son in Butte who has a narcotic license,
but that this would not qualify him to
handle prohibited drugs in Great Falls.
The deputy claims there was enough
drugs in the package he confiscated to
last the ordinary practitioner two years.
Rivet claims to be a native of Butte.
Chief Anderson told Rivet that he
does not believe a word of his story.
Deputy Mann said he intended to make
a complaint against Rivet in the court
of C. S. Commissioner W. S. Frary as
he thot there was enough evidence at
hand to obtain a conviction on u charge
of importing forbidden drugs.

A WORKING GIRL'S LIFE
Day in and day out, month after
month, she toils. Often she is the bread
winner of the family and must work
that others may live. Rain or shine,
warm or cold, she must be at her place
of employment on time. A great ma
jority of such girls are on their- feet
from morning until night, and symptoms
of female troubles are early manifested
by weak and aching backs, dragging
down pains, headaches and nervousness. ;
Such girls are asked to try that most i
successful of all remedies for woman s \
ills, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable j
Compound, which for more' than 40 ;
years has been giving girls strength to j

Come Ride in the Essex
Its First Showing—A Light Weight Quality Car
We Want Your Opinion of It
All motordom has waited a j'ear for the Essex.
Dealers have ventured all sorts of descriptions for it.
But today it is having its premier showing in hundreds of
cities and towns throughout America.
For months the trade papers have given first prominence
to whatever news they could get of its details.
Their interest was awakened because it combines the
advantages of the light low-priced car, and its economy,
with the performance, sturdiness and beauty of the large
and costly car. One leading writer proclaimed the Essex
a new development in motor car transportation.
Don't you want to beiamong the first in this locality
to see the car that has awakened this interest? We wish
you would come and ride in it Tor
You Are To Do
Its Advertising
We have long wanted to reveal the details of the Essex.
But the manufacturers said they wanted the car to speak
for itself. They said no description that could be applied
to it would create as favorable an impression as would
result from a ride in the car.
Even now we hesitate to praise the Essex since we can
say nothing that has not already been claimed in praise for
some other car.* »
So the endorsement it is to receive is such as you and
other thousands of motorists volunteer to give. All we ask
is that you come see and ride in it.
We Were Surprised—
Let Us Surprise You
When we went to the factory to see the
Essex we wanted to know in advance some
thing of its detail. But we were told that
was for us to discover as we inspected and
rode in the car.
Perhaps we would have been skeptical
and have concluded there was nothing un
usual about the Essex if we had npt known
13
BWISKf
MOTOR
•CARS
the men who are building it. But knowing them as we do
and knowing the quality of cars they build, our faith and
curiosity were aroused.
What a Ride
Proved to Us
Our first experience was a ride over a road so rough that
you would willingly go miles out of the way to avoid if
you were in the average light car.
We took it at high speed, but the effect in both the front
and rear seats was more in keeping with what you might
expect in riding over a smooth pavement.
Then we drove into soft sand where the wheels sunk in
below the felloes, going through as though it were thin mud.
Every test that reveals performance was shown us.
There were no squeaks. The motor did not labor. The car
had been in similar service for months and still retained
its appearance of newness. These are things we want to
show you. A demonstration like that which surprised uj
is ready for you if you will come to our store.
The Essex is Built
To Endure
Every part that wears is adjustable. Hard service can
not loosen the body nor twist the radiator. It is so sturdily
built that the frame remains solid and rigid over the roughest
roads and through the hardest service. The motor
is practically free from vibration. If you were
blindfolded and placed in the Essex without
having seen it and then were given such a
ride as we want you to takewith us, you would
likely say you were in a large and costly car.
After you have ridden in the Essex we
will tell you all about it.
Then, we think you will be so enthusiastic
you will tell everyone you know that you
have ridden in the most surprising car you
have ever seen.

BEAN EATERS GET
BUSY FOR SEASON
Boys of the Y. M. C. A. had their
first "Bean Feed" last night at the Y..
M. C. A. and they expect to have them
every Wednesday night for about four
months or more. There were 77 boys
present and seven men to lead them.
After their feed, they organized into
eight classes for Bible study. They are
provided with small books entitled, "Men
Who Dared." These books contain 18
lessons which will be studied by the boys
each week.
At the meeting the boys listened to the
various men speak for a few minutes
and then went to their class rooms with
their leaders. ,
Not long ago the boys who attend
gym were divided into teams." The night
class was divided into these teams:
Army, navy, marines and the aviation,
and the day classes into the tigers, lions,
grizzlies and eagles.
The following are the leaders cf the'
teams:
Messrs. Dahlburg, aviation: Crawford,.
tigers; Joe Miller, navy; McMullen, ma
rines; Burlingame, army; Bruce John
son. grizzlies; Ferri?, eagles and Col
burn, lions.
Last year aliout 75 boys participated
in the P.ible study under A. E. ïount,
but this year C. E. Auger will take
charge of the boys.
The boy who is the best all-around
in gym. Bible study and the other work
of the Y. it. C. A. will receive an honor
of some sort and the winning team w;l!
probably get a pennant. Last year tli.
team named United States won the pr -
iant and Ilerrod Boston won the honor

The tickets to the weekly dinner- v ) I
cost 20 cents and the study books cost
10 cents.
CAMPAIGN BRINGS
IN 600 MEMBERS
High School Athletic Associa
tion Secures Fine Results
From Membership Effort.
.-i
A very satisfactory ending to the high
school Athletic association membership
campaign last night brought out the fact
that 600 of the 700 students enrolled in
the school are members of the organiza-1
tion.
For the past week the membership
drive has been on in full blast under the
leadership of the president of the organi
zation. Gordon Pierce. The success of
the Cascade basket ball game probably
added to the enthusiasm which is un
usually evident for so early in the sea
son.
The payment of the 2T> cents dues
gives the members the privilege of re
duced rates to all games and meets put
on by the Athletic association during the
year.
A portion of the funds goes for the
purchase of seven new basket ball suits
for the team. These have already been
ordered" and are expected any time. The
association also defrays the expenses
