In the face of that we are able to say Hale’s. Hale’s. Gieorge Washington Would be 169 years old Friday If he had lived. ' Yet he lives—lives in spirit—exerting an -influence in American affairs. His character, his work, his life, have been woven into the nation’s fiber. Let us all pause at least one day of the year to keep his memory green, his deeds fresh. So We close mext Friday. More than that—we've had our force of decorators busy for days ar- ranging an elaborate display in the light well. % 5 In the place of honor is a life- size bust of Washington, beside which is the Goddess of Liberty.

Negotiations stopped at once and the matter was carried to the courts. * Mr. Merril proved approximately the value of the goods lost, and the court granted a decision in his favor to the amount of $950. Appeal was at once taken | and the matter went to the Supreme Court. In accordance with a State law a com- mon carrier is responsible for the loss of property through the gross negligence or willful ‘wrong of an owner or an em- ploye. The defense proved that the era- ploye in question was guilty of neither of these offenses. The court then held that by accepting the receint which was given him Mr. Merril entered into a lawful contract that if the trunk was lost he should receive’ only $100, the amount for which the com- pany insured its transfer. Mr. Merril pleaded that he was ignor- ant of any such part of the receipt, but his plea was overruled. The judgment and order of the lower <ourt were there- Helena.
