Two primincnt socia vorker3 "went to the mat" yesterday in juvenile court. They were Mrs. Marie LefT Cald well, resident head of the Social Set tlement on the South Side, and J. H. Carver, truant officer for the Hoard ' of Education. Carver accused Mrs.v Caldwell of "meddling." Mrs. Caldwell came back, charging Carver with poor social service niethodsr ' "Social workers should be human, not guided by mere technicalities. You could send all the boys in this court room to Kearney, but your business is to keep them out of Kear ney." was the lady's thrust. ''You can't solve all problems of education, immigration and deporta tion by making this boy 'the goat.'" Boy Is Serbian. . "You defied the law; you said this hoy should not go to school, that he remain delinquent, when 1 ordered him to attend school," retorted Car a er. "You kept this boy's poor mother in a reign of terror for five weeks, weeping her eyes out in fear of de portation," returned Mrs. Caldwell. "This boy" was Sava Gaspar, Ser bian, 2917 Q street, who arrived in this country four months ago. He claims to be 18 years old next Oc tober, but his passports give his age as 15. Gaspar went to day school a short time on his arrival, then quit to work in Armour's. Here Carver found him when he iiK.de an investigation on orders from the immigration, headquarters in Washington. "We've got to have some prece dent to go by," Carver appealed to Judge Sears. "I have 250 similar ct.scs for investigation for the gov ernment, to establish whether they are deportation cases. I am acting on information contai".:J in this passport that this boy and his father lied upon entering this country." Mrs. Caldwell explained the lie was sworn to so the boy could es cape military service in Serbia. She produced church records giving hi real age. "He never could leave the country with his family in any other way," he said. - Case Dismissed. Judge Sears "took in" all the above. He had "the last word" but lie sided with neither. "The case is dismissed. This boy is beyond school age, therefore the case is not within the jurisdiction of the court," he pronounced. "Mr. Carver, you did right to act on 'the information you had until it was otherwise established." Gaspar's mother wept tears of re lief. The youth attends Armour's right school, has taken out first citi zenship papers and is doing every thing he can to become a loyal American citizen, according to Mrs. Caldwell. . - 1 South Side Drill Team Enters Tourney 1 , " iront row from left to right: A.

But we do not object to the foreign-born citizen who attempts to decide an American question for a foreign rea son, whether he be of German line age and proposes to , determine an American policy because of German prejudice or whether he be Irish, Italian, Hungarian or Russian, who seeks for similar reasons, to decide American questions. I bitterly resent the abuse of American citizenship or residence for the purpose of polit ical or warlike propaganda in for eign countries. "In America tlierc can be no place for those who, while claiming equal citizenship with us and enjoying its privileges under our flag, yet con tinue their allegiance to another country.

Here Is Where YOU Can Make Money CONSIDER the FACTS (This ad is written for Business Men) I I If The First National Oil Syndicate can offer you a straight, fair, square deal, but we are not given to any Fourth of July oratory. There are cer tain FACTS that must govern any business man in making any investment,, or in buying goods or in spending money for anything, Few busi ness men buy hot air they have heard too much of it they want FACTS. It is FACTS that we are going to give you in this ad. Noth ing else. And if these facts are not sufficient, write us and we will give you some more, that we have not space for here. Why Oil Makes Money The actual development of oil, from proven ground, in a proven field, of course, is one of the quickest, if not the very quickest, means of making a great, fortune from the investment of a comparatively small amount of money, that exists in the world today, and that without de priving anyone else of a solitary nickel that be longs to them. It is the actual creation of new wealth. Suppose that $25,000, is invested in the drilling of a well on proven ground near other production and a 1,000-barrel-per-day well is brought inand this size well is common on Cat Creek. That investment of $25,000 immediately becomes worth probably $2,000,000. An enormous increase. This FACT is what makes oil the most attractive investment. Drilling in Proven Ground Not "Risky" Many people have the idea that drilling for oil or oil development is a very hazardous busi ness. Here is where we would call your atten tion to one highly important FACT. The drill ing for oil in a "wildcat" field that is a place where oil has never been discovered is risky. Geologists will tell you that the great majority of such wells drilled where oil has never yet been found, will be a failure. BUT drilling in a proven structure drilling ground near other wells already producing in other words, drill ing proven ground in a proven field, will pro duce an oil well from 90 to 95 times out of a hundred. In fact, there is not as much risk in this as m many other lines of business. Consider the Record in Cat Creek The Cat Creek field is new the field is only n year old but Cat Creek is proven a commer cial productive field. A trainload of oil leaves Winntt every day from this field, and not half of the wells are connected up with the pipeline. Twenty-seven wells have been drilled and all but three have come in producers, These three are all figuring on drilling to the deeper sands. But nearly 90 per cent of the wells drilled are already 'producers, ot much risk there. Will You Bet $100 on a Sure Thing? The First National Oil Syndicate was organ ized for the express purpose of interesting out side people in the Montana oil fields, and mak ing money for them. It is a FACT that we need the help of outside capital to develop these fields. With short crops for three years, and a ruinous decline in the price of wool, copper, wheat and live stock, we have not the ready money here ourselves to develop all this oil ground.. The best way to get all the help we need is to interest as large . a number of people living in other states as we can in a gilt-edged deal, and MAKE MONEY FOR THEM, on the deal. Then they and their friends will give us all the help we need. Small Organization, Big Opportunity The First National was, therefore, organized by leading business men, long established here, thorouhgly responsible, to develop close-in ground, near the heart of the great Cat Creek field ground that is regarded as certain of big production. The officers of this Syndicate are Mr. Rodney J. Anderson, President, also Secre tary of the $2,000,000 Montana Flour Mills Co.; Mr. Edmund Wright, Vice President, also Presi dent of the Wright Land & Investment Co., known all over the northwest; Mr. O. F. Was mansdorff, Treasurer, widely known architect ural engineer. References: Any bank or busi ness house in Lewistown, Montana. ' And THERE is the point of paramount im portance that you want to know, The men are all right. You are getting in on an honest deal. The ground consists of 40 acres enough for eight wells either right on top or very near the supposed axis of the anticline. Within a mile of this ground are NINE of the big pro ducing wells of the field. The famous 56 Pe troleum well is a little over a mile away the units of which syndicate sold here for $250 each and went up to $15,000 each when they brought in their first well. They have brought in another since. Within about a half mile of the ground of the First National is the big Mid-Northern, making about ONE HUNDRED PER CENT ON THE INVESTMENT EACH WEEK. Would you call . this close-in proven ground? Do you think you are taking any chance of our missing the same big production? So THERE IS THE SECOND POINT. The ground is certainly good. NOW if the men are responsible, honest, and everything to be desired, and the ground is good, proven ground, what else do you want to know? IS THE DEAL GOOD? Sure. Capitalized for a small amount only. $125,000, divided into units of par value of $100 each.' No promotion units, no salaried officers, bonded trustees. Everything for the protection of the investor. Buy one unit. Let us make you something on this one and then we can talk business on something else. Send $100 (your check will do very well) fpr one unit. If you want more we will accommodate you, but get one anyway. If you don't want to pay the full amount now, send only one-fourth of the money with order and the balance in three monthly payments $25 with order and $25 per month for three months will buy one unit just as well. . DO THIS. Either send your order right now, or write us a line and ask for any other informaion you want but better enclose your order for one unit with your letter. Oppor tunity knocks.

Moonshiner Says Officers Farrand and Knudt-, 6on Accepted His Money, South Side Man Tells City Council. The city council heard testi mony yesterday in connection with charges filed by Chief of Police Eb erstein against Detectives Guv Knudtson and Oliver Farrand, ch.-rged with having received vari ous payments of money from Michael Barna, 2509 Adams street, South Side, in consideration of pro tecting Barna in his alleged manu facture and sale of intoxicants. The council took the case under advisement until 2 p. m. Monday. Mr. Barna and his wife, with two young sons, George and John,, tes tified against the officers, who de nied, in toto, the charges against them. The testimony of the Barna family was so conflicting in some points that the commissioners wish to check up some of their statements before rendering a decision. Barna is an Austrian, 19 years in this country, not naturalized, and now has his third wife, according to ihe testimony. He admitted having en gaged in the manufacture and sale of liquors at his home. July 15, 1920, Bama's place was raided by Detectives Morgan. Herd zina, Knudtson and Farrand, follow ing which Barna was fined in the South Side police court and was sen tenced two months by the federal court. Barna testified that Knudtson and Farrand agreed to protect him in thu operation of his still if he paid them each $25 per month. George Barna, 13-ycar-old son, testified that the money which he saw paid by his father was banded to Farrand. John, a younger son, testified that he saw the money paid and usually to Farrand in amounts of $50. Detective John Ilcrdzina testified that on the occasion of tlit raid of the Rama place last July Knudtson and Farrand promptly and willingly joined in the call and gave no evi dence of having any personal inter est in the case. Knudtson testified that he was ;iot transferred to the South Side until May 1, 1920. lie intimate! that the charges were the result of a "boot leggers' fratneup."
