The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1895-01-13


portant factor of the swim hung in the
balance and the universal sigh of relief
which escaped from those most deeply
interested, when il was learned that the
clubs existence would not be suddenly
and ANONYMOUSLY terminated, is con-
sidercd responsible for the prevailing
chinook. IL ever the city of Mssoula
erects n monument to perpetuate the
memory of any of her citizens who have
been benefactors of the city, n lofty
column should be raised 10 hand down TO
posterity the names and deeds of the men
who came to the rescue in the crisis
through which the city has just passed
and upon tine tablets of this shaft should
be emblazoned above all the rest tho
names of the trustees of the X. =. hall,
who reduced the rent for the Social club,
and of the gallant swains who joined the
club and, by the payment of their dues,
enabled the treasurer to pay the fddlcrs
for the club dances. And in future years,
when such a monument rises in the Uni
versity park, parents will take their chill
dren there on Sunday afternoons and.
while the zephyrs watt sweet fragrance
from the Bitter Root valley and the birds
twitter IN the trees overhead, they will
tell the little ones the story of the
day by preserving Missoula's reputation
as a swift society town. The regular club
dances will be held for tho remainder of
the season, except on Jan. 25, when the
hall is to be used by the Caledonian club
in its celebration of the birthday of
Robert Burns. The party given by tho
club last evening was particularly
pleasant one, in view of the fact that il

for the enjoy ment of the occasion.
