PAGE TWELVE MRS. ELDON TIPTON DIES AFTER A BRIEF ILLNESS Pioneer Montana Woman, Having Been Born at Willow Creek 63 Years Ago. Mrs. Emma Tipton, wife of El don Tipton, prominent farmer of the Maschetah section, died Thursday evening of last week following a stroke with which she was afflicted a few days previous. She was taken suddenly ill at the ranch home and was brought at once to the Lucy Winn hospital in Hardin, where she failed grad ually until the end. Emma Reed was born at Wil low Creek, Montana, August 8, 1871, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Reed. She grew to woman hood in the Gallatin valley and was educated in the schools there. In 1893 she was united in mar riage with George Hopkins at Bozeman. They resided in the Gallatin valley until 1910, when they came to Hardin and lived on the North Bench, where Mr. Hop kins died in 1913. Shortly after her husband’s death she took up a homestead near Maschetah. On June 11. 1917, she was married to Eldon Tipton at Billings, who is left to mourn her loss. She also is survived by an uncle, Millard McGaugh, of Manhattan. Because of ill health he was unable to come to Hardin to attend the funeral, but his wife came to the last rites under the direction of the Bullis-Crilly Co., which were held at the Baptist church in Hardin, Tuesday. Rev. E. H. Wendland. pastor of the Har din Methodist church, officiating. Mrs. Lura P. Strand, with Mrs. W. J. Brekke at the piano sang two appropriate hymns. The pallbearers were Albert May, Robert C. Fly, Arie Kamp. Homer S. Allen, John H. Kifer and Frank Vanderod, all neighbors and old time friends. Interment was in the Hardin cemetery. Mrs. Tipton was a typical pi oneer of many womanly attributes and she will be sorely missed, not only by her bereaved husband, but by her neighbors and friends as well. Maxine Prine accompanied her brother, Verle Prine, to Fort Peck for a couple of weeks’ visit with he and her father, who are em ployed there. 0 Supt. M. A. Thompson of Har din School Dist.

What is meant by "Fidac?” Tnais a wora that wux oe used frequently by legionnaires and auxiliary members curing the an nual state convention at Billings next week, says Thursday's Bih ings Gazette. An explanation of the word is maae by Mrs. iTanx 8. Morrison of Haram, a member of tne state "Fidac” auxiliary convention com mittee. To establish a means for con tinued friendly contact and an ex change of ideas among the vast bodies of men from many difffer ent countries who served the al lied cause in the World war, dele gations from the veterans’ organ izations of each principal allied country met in Paris in November, 1920, she said. At this congress an interallied veterans’ federation was formed. It was given the French name of "Federation Interalliee das An ciens Combattants” and from the first letters of each of the five words was coined the word “Fi dac” by which this international organization is now kown throughout the world. Five years later the “Fidac” auxiliary was formed, Mrs. Morrison pointed out. The countries represented in “Fidac” are Belgium, France, Italy, Great Britain, Poland, Portugal, Rumania, Yugoslavia, Czechoslo vakia. Greece and the United States. The American Legion is the American member of “Fidac” while the legion auxiliary is the Ameri can member of the “Fidac” auxili ary. Every member of the legion is automatically a member of “Fi dac” as is every member of the auxiliary a member of the “Fidac" women’s unit, she explained. An international congress is held by “Fidac” and the “Fidac” auxili ary each year at which inter national questions and problems of war veterans are considered. Wherever the congress meets, it studies that country as a part of the "Fidac” program. The "Fidac” auxiliary joins in all the activities of the "Fidac" in which the work of women can be effective. Peace being the object ive, the program is designed to work towards that end. through understanding better the other “Fidac" countries. At the auxiliary reception to be held Sunday evening, August 19, at the Northern hotel tea room in Billings, for delegates attending the convention, the program will be a tableau of famous English women with appropriate musical numbers by the Kalispell unit quartet and others. The program will be under the direction of the “F ida c" convention committee composed of Mrs. Mbrrison, Mrs. Minda McAnally of Glendive, and Mrs. John Sten of Billings. CANNING SUPPLIES QT.

Moisture in Grass, Plants The average small suburban lawn transpires from 10 to 15 gallons of wa ter daily Into the air. In this way it moistens the air and makes It more fit for human breathing. In that same connection, sunflower plants have been known to transpire a quart of water daily. Plants absorb water from the ground and then pass it on to the air through the process of transpiration after the individual requirements of the plants have been taken care of.
