county high school is one of the best ed
catlonal institutions in Bozeman at the
present time, although it has been in OPP
GRAFTON only long enough to graduate one
class. The bill creating county high
schools, of which John Losecamp of Bill
lings is the father, was taken advantage
of by Gallatin county as soon as the pro-
visions of the law could be complied with,
and Gallatin has the disti nctio fnodael-
and Gallatin has the distinction of lead
ing all the other counties in the state in
this regard.
The closing session of the Montana So
lciety of Natural Science met in the par
loIs of the Bozeman hotel Thursday
evening. The address of the evening was
delivered by Prof. V. K. Chestnut of
Washington. D. c.. who ook for his
subject, "Acorns as Food" The society
in this city was organized in 1898 and It's
history has been one of interest and sue
cess. A plan has lately been adopted
which seems destined to meet with gen.
eral favor. 1t is a scheme to unite all
the societies of natural science in the
state in order to bring about a coherent
organization among those who are In
terested in this fascinating branch of
study. Another phase of the plan is to
create in some part of the state a mu-
scum of natural science where will be
preserved all the examples of natural
phenomena which are now sent from this
state to collections in the east. These
innovations appear to meet with decid-
ed encouragement and will doubtless be-
come realities before anOther year.
Among the members here in BoZeman are
men and women of splendid ability and
training. and the state organization will
have excellent upport from this body.
Thursday evening the members of the
:. Ladies' Aid society of the Baptist church
met in their rooms in the basement of
the church for the purpose of electing
). officers. such was the inclemency of the
! weather, however, that the action OF the
!, society was postponed until the next
,, meeting, which will take place Thurs
, day afternoon of this week. The usual
> custom of serving luncheon from 5 until
4 8 O'Clock was followed and a large num-
!, Der of people awaited themselves OF the
! dainty repast provided.
