Immense Crowd at Exercises.
Probably the greatest crowd which
ever assembled in Ell Centre honored
the departing Liberty Boys last night.
The streets were lined with autos
for many blocks each side of Main
street, and it was hard to find park
ing space. On Main street the scene
was one long to be remembered. Men,
women and children in holiday attire
gathered by the hundreds to say eau
revoir" to the new soldiers.
The program Of exercises and the
parade went off without hitch, ex-
copt for the Mexican Band. That
organization was compelled to stay
in Mcxicali because Of the coming
last night of Colonel Esteban Cantu.
The committee did not know that the
band was not coming until p. m.
Then the Owl orchestra was substi-
tuted.
The long line OF marchers stirred
those who lined up on the streets to
see the parade. The CaleXico regu-
lars, the fire departments, and, great
est of all, the Liberty Boys, were
cheered to the echo

Ceologist Points to Chance
for College Men.

Professor J. p. Rowe. director of the
summer sessions at the State univer-
sity In Missoula and head Of the de-
partmcnt Of geology in the university,
has made detailed study Of the adj
vantages for young Montana men and
women to study Montana's geology in
the State University.
Il think Montana students should
study geology in Montana" said DIR.
Rowe. There are many reasons for
this. the first and most important of
which is because Montana is. in a geo.
logical way, probably the best state in
the Union for such scientific study.
The Second reason is because there
has been very little detail geological
work done in the state. Third. Mon.
tana has probably more acres Of coal
and Ignite deposits than any other
state in America"
Many Undsvelopsd Mines.
Montana IL rich in undevcloped
mines. which contain vast deposits Of
gypsum. sapphire. phosphate. building
stones and innumerable other rocks
and minerals. All these await future
investigation and development.
OH and gas productions have recent
~ been disclosed in Montana. and
while 1t is not looked on as having a
great future in oil. DIR. Rowe is con-
WINGED there will doubtless be many
gas wells in the state.
Great Opportunity Offered.
There are few other professions
that offer such a splendid opportunity
as does that Of geology for the young
men of Montana" said DR.. Rowe. land
the man who attends the state Uni
Versity and becomes a professional
geologist will have studied the geology
OF the state more carefully than man
who has taken the work in an outside
institution. Therefore he will be
much more capable of solving the geo
logical problems of Montana than
those who have been trained in other
institutions"
University Ideally Situated.
The proximity Of the State Univer-
sity to the oil fields of southern Mon
tana and northern Wyoming. to the
great copper and zinc districts Of
Butte. to tn lead and zinc districts of
the Occur dAlenes. to the phosphate
and other economic products nearby,
