The season of holly and mistletoe is ushering in a shop
ping parade which promises to break all records, for this
year's national income will again reach into the financial strat-j
(»sphere.
This Christmas, shoppers are wanted more than ever to,
shop early. Scarcity ol goods may make it difficult oi i^n— j
possible for our merchants to secure additional stock in many j
lines when present supplies are exhausted. I
^ % .
And wise shoppers will not only do their buying early, they j
will do it at home where they can save precious time and dol-|
lars. Gone are the days when the big cities held a monopoly |
on lower prices and variety of goods. With efficient merchan
dising methods our local merchants have effectively broken that;and
one-time monopoly. In so doing, they have rendered a service ;
not only to shoppers, but to the community, for dollars spent
at home create jobs, pay taxes, and support civic improve
, i . ,
ments of every kind.

DILLON—
By Albert Erickson, Editor Tribune, Dillon, Mont.
Located in the heart of a vast livestock empire, Dillon is the
county seat of Beaverhead county, Montana's largest producer of
livestock. It was incorporated in 1884 after the gold rush boom
of the fabulous Bannack strike, Montana's first important gold
discovery. Dillon was the terminus of the first railroad, the Utah
and Northern, to enter Montana in 1880 and was named in honor
of Sidney Dillon, president of the Union Pacific Railroad. Dillon
is on the Lewis and Clark trail.
Dillon is the site of the Montana State Normal college and
has a population of 3,050. Suirounded by mountains and streams,
it is a mecca for hunters and fisherman.
CHINOOK
By Leo. N. Sanford, Editor Chinook Journal
Montana ranchers will all know the meaning of the name Chinook
—those warm winds that come suddenly in winter, quickly melting
the snow, making range grass available again, and saving on the
hay stacks. They have saved the "hide" of manv a rancher. The
chinook wind in turn took its name from the Chinook jargon or
dialect of Indian tribes in the state of Washington.
Established in 1888, a year after the Great Northern railroad
came through, the town was for a year known as Dawes, named
for Representative Dawes, father of "Hell and Maria" Dawes of
Chicago. County seat of Blain county since 1912, it has a popula
tion of about 2,200, is on Highwav No. 2. is the* location of a large

The national physician-to-popula
tion ratio which is considered the
minimum to protect civilian health
is probably about 1 to 1,000, says the
department of agriculture.
Iced Tea
To make the cloudless type of
iced tea, measure four level tea
spoons of tea to each two cups of
cold water. Cover and let it stand
in the refrigerator from 12 to 24
hours. Pour it over cracked ice or
ice cubes.
