Published every Thursday at St Ignatius. Lake County. Mont The town is located in a very beautiful, fertile, and historical spot in the lower Flathead valley. The partic ular area is known more generally as the Mission Valley, and the town itself as “The Mission” from the St. Ignatius Mission which was founded here in 1854.

Dellwo, secretary of the Flathead district of the Flathead Irrigation and Power Project, at tended to business at the Project headquarters here Monday. Mr; Dellwo played violin for many a dance years ago when the Reser vation was opened up and the project was teeming with activity. In addition to to political activ ity, which tpok him many times to the state legislature, and in addition to farming and making public addresses, Dennis or “Den nie”, as he is popularly called by old-time friends, has composed poems and one, entitled “Twilight Reverie” has been published in sheet music. It carries the sub title “Lonliress Resolved Into Song” and is dedicated to parents made lonely by the departure of grown ones, whose homes are liv ened again by the presence of grandchildren.” z The words to this song run as follows: When the shadow of the mountain bring the evening cool to me. I’ll be dwelling in my mem’ries, resting neath a friendly tree. And the wee ones gather ’round me as they sing and dance and play Soon will be down there beside me with their stories of the day. Then I find that I’ve been dream ing of a day that’s long gone by When the flowers of spring were blooming and the loved ones all were nigh, And there’s no one there beside me as I doze in reverie, When the shadow of the moun tain, bring the evening cool to me. Then there comes another spring time when our hearts aru glad again, v When the voice and feet of wee ones fill our home with joy again. Now there’s laughter in my dreaming as I doze in reverie, When the shadow of the moun tain brings the evening cool to me.

IGNATIUS POST MUST HAVE 2 CAR PLATES AND *66 TABS ON SAME, SAYS STATE HIGHWAY PATROL Autotmobile and truck owners will not get new license plates this year, said Highway Patrol man Joe Sol in a call at The POST Tuesday afternoon. Instead, they will get tabs to attach to their old plates. ' ' So far, so good! But here’s something to nemem ember —and the Highway Patrol does not plan to allow you to forget it:. You must have two plates (front and rear) on which to put the two tabs the county treasurer will issue you. If you’ve had the ill luck to lose a plate and have been limping around with only one plate, that state of affairs is due to come to an end. “Tickets” will be given the one-plater even though the one-plater has two tabs in his possession. If you can dig ^p the missing old plate, that will be fine and dandy. But if you cannot, then you’ll have to get another. The way to do it is to apply to your county treasurer, the patrolman said. He will supply you with a form to fill out and a small fee to pay. What the highway patrol wants to get across at this time is not to wait until the Feb. 15 dead line to get the missing plate. Do it now! The replacement price is “two bucks”. But by golly, you might get by cheaper by going to your local newspaper and placing a want ad, the gist of which might run something like this: LOST —Car license plate No. 15- ' 1313. For Pete sake, le’m know if you have it or know Where it is! (POST want ands get results) ltps6c P. S. The patrolman said that trailers and sami’s need only one plate. ^HORSEPOWER HORSE SENSE A by DUDLEY WILLKEIS^^ If there is anything about a car that generates conversation it’s the mileage it gets. Usually this talk is in the form of complaints. |— — . —-i I received a n °te from the ■I r Carter Co- sumer Service V > the other day / that made me realize that drivers may have been giv ing car manufacturers and servicemen an unnecessary verbal beating. The Consumer Service, operated by Carter Carburetor, lists ten causes of poor mileage: •I 1. “Show-off’’ acceleration- Accelerating at wide open throttle consumes fuel several times as fast as moderate acceleration. 2. Improper shifting—Holding the car in low gears until you get up to high speeds may easily double fuel consumption. 3. Excessive speeds on the high way burn up gasoline dollars. 4. Pumping the gas pedal—a nervous foot wastes ga>. 5. Excessive idling—Fuel con sumed at idle doesn’t show on the speedometer. 6. Stop signs and traffic signals —ln many cities traffic signals are synchronized for a recommended speed. Driving according to. the traffic pattern saves gas." 7. Low tire pressure—Under inflation means more road friction and increased gas consumption. 8. Dragging brakes—When brakes drag, more power is re quired to overcome the resistance. 9. Racing a cold engine—This causes excessive wear and wastes lots of gas. 10. Short trips—-Most short trip driving is done with the choke partially closed. Economical driv ing demands a normally heated engine. Short trips are necessary, of course, but do use up gasoline.
