Creigh but their marriage was
postponed at the time on account
of the illness of Mr. Creigh who is
afflicted witn diabetes and the
latest advises of phyiscians are to
the effect that there is no hope for
his recovery and the marriage will
never be solemnized.
An Enjoyable Dancing Party
Despite a severe rain storm t
which prevailed early in the eyen- r
ing, the grand ball Wednesday ev
ening by the ladies of the Rebekah a
Lodge Numder 8, was a most en- t
joyable affair. In fact many who 1
were present say it was the most
enjoyable of any given for many
months, The ladies who were the I
sponsors of the ball are to be con
gratulated for every detail was
managed thoroughly and everyone
was made to feel at home. A
light luncheon of sandwiches, sal
ads, cold tea, ice cream and cake
was served at 11:30 at the McQuit
ty hall and dancing was continued
until2 o'clock. We hope for an
other as nice soon.
How Clouds Are Colored.
The color of a cloud depends on the
manner in which the sunlight falls
upon it and the position of the ob
server. It will be noticed that high
clouds are always white or light in
color, and this is because the light by
which they are seen is reflected from
the under surface by the numberless
drops of moisture which go to form
the cloud. Heavy rain clouds, on the
other hand. are found much nearer the
earth, and so the light falls on them
more directly from above, giving a
silver lining to the cloud, though the
under surface appears black, owing
to the complete reflection and abrorp.
tlon of the light by the upper layers.
Seen from above by an observer in
a balloon the blackest rain clouds ap

Shold Leek After New Caers
The practical and actual experi
enced of those pioneer boomers or
boosters who have given years of j
labor to the work of peopling the
west has demonstrated the fact
that it is sometimes easier to get
settlers into a country than it is
to hold them. The new comer
has so many discouragements to
contend with in a new country
that it is up to the older residents
to make a determined effort to
help the new arrivalk. Along this
line of endeavor the people of Ore
gon have made great progress and
their plan of action was outlined
in an address made by C. C. Chap
man, secretary of the Portland
Commercial Club at the recent
boosters' meeting in Helena.
"We see to it," said Mr. Chap
man,"that there are arganized in
all of the one hundred and nine
town auxiliaries of the Commercial
club, women's auxiliaries and glad
hand clubs, as we call them, new
comer's clubs, so that the new-com
er, when he arrives, when he alights
from the train, is met by somebody
with a badge indicating that he is
not a real estate man ( and we
have some pretty good real estate
men in Oregon at that), but that
he is a representative of an organ
ization of the business men and
the professional men and the farm
ers of that community; and we see
to it that the women get organized
in the women's auxiliaries, not to
boom their locality, not merely to
engage in the effervescent phases
of advertising, but to extend a
cordial welcome, to call upon the
women when they arrive and see
that their little wants are attend
ed to, to see that they are made to
feel, somewhat, at home in their
new environment-they have come
a long way when they come to
Oregon, way across the Continent
al divide; they are tired and weary
and often discouraged; very often
hopes have been arroused in their
breasts which they have begun to
fear cannot be fulfilled,-and it is
up to us of Oregon, as it is up to
the residents of all of the great
northwest, to see to it that these
arrivals, when they do come, are
welcomed cordially and hospitably
. and that we do everything within
our power to make them feel that
- they are at home, that they are
one of us, and that they stand
shoulder to shoulder in our work
in upbuilding an empire. That,
we feel, is of vital importance and
we are working very much along
that line."
There is room in Montana for
action of this kind; even in Har
lowton.
The News learns that the story
we re-printed from the Lewistown
Daily News in our last issue, where
in it was stated that E. F. Bur
meister had pleaded guilty of vio
lating the game law, was axl error
as the case was dismissed in the
courts at Harlowton and Big Tim
ber.
