Gus" Schreck
Pleased With
Detroit Camp
Missoula Boy in Enormous
Aviator':s Station in
Michigan City.

After having been in training at San
Antonio, Tex. for several weeks
George fScherck of this city, former
university student, is now with the
Ninth Aero squadron at Detroit, Mich,
awaiting a transfer to one of the army
aviation schools, according to a letter
received by his mother. The detach-
ment of which "Gusie' is member,
is at present stationed on the Selfridge
aviation field, which is a small city in
itself The barracks have steam heat,
showers, and other modern conven-
fences. while there is a hospital, a
school for officers children, machine
shops. six aeroplane hangers, sewers,
light, heat and water on the field. The
mess hall Is just few feet from the
barracks door. In comparison to the
tents and sand of Texas, the Detroit
camp is a regular paradise, according
to Scherck. Two French officers are
at the camp teaching the American
birdmen how to fly.
Scherck enlisted together with sew
eral other university students some
months ago, joining the aerial service.
They were first sent to Fort Wright
then to Texas, where the others still
remain.

coined Strangers, but
Wasn't Careful.

Late Saturday night, two men, in
the garb Of fishermen, came to the
residence of Peter Cir, in the Bitter
Root valley. and applied for lodging
for the night. The request was granted
and the men were conducted to a
room in the house and left there. While
Cir went to bed in his own room.
A few minutes later Girr recalled
that he had left two watches, a
Waltham and Hamilton, hanging on
the wall of the room which he had
given over to the visitors. He decided
to go and bring them into his own
room for safekeeping, but when he
came to the dodgers room men and
watches were gone.
Cir started in pursuit but was I'M
able to find any trace of the pair. so
ran over to the Maclay ranch and
obtained a car in which he proceeded
to Missoula. where he notified the
sheriff of his loss. No trace has been
found of Girr's watches or his dodgers.

The tourist season has begun at last.

Yesterday, however the tourist reg
listers at the various garages in this
city gave sufficient evidence that the
season Is really on. Over a score of
cars were registered during the day, IL
at Shoemaker's garage alone. A great
majority of the cars were from Mon.

or six cars from cities outside of the

One mistake often leads to an
other-and sometimes to third
as it does in a story that the Sec
rotary of War told in the course
of an address not long ago when
he was speaking of United States
army regulations.
One hot day recently a private
sat in a train with his tunic un-
buttoned. Presently sergeant
strobe up to him and said:
Button up that tunic! Did you
never hear of bylaw 217, subsec-
ton D? I'm Sergeant Winterbot-
tom.'

tapped the sergeant sternly on the

profits should be taken, the war
tax bill has seen t. that, Congress
has on the whole nobly worked,
the bill will become-a law, and We
all shall have to meet it's require-
ments. But the Liberty Loan is
an appeal to our individual sense
of patriotism, our acts must be
voluntary, the war tax bill is in a
sense conscriptive, but subscrip-
ton to the war tax loan will be
voluntarism.
We do not here appeal to the
commercial side of the loan, the
investment will be financially a
good one, but we do appeal to the
individual to manifest his patriot
ism by taking liberty bond if he
has funds to invest.

Away over in Portugal an old
lady believing in the doctrine OF
the TRANSPORTATION Of souls, be- e
came possessed with the idea that
her lately deceased husband had
resumed his mundane course IN the
body of an old rooster.
Soon after the old lady died and
when her will was opened it was
found she bad left her entire estate
to Pedro the rooster.
But even over in Portugal there
are some as smart as a Yankee.
One of the relatives quietly went
to the coop and under cover OF
darkness wrung Pedro's neck.
Pedro had made no will, so the
estate went to the natural heirs.
How simple; here the process OF
discovering a natural heir is Sc
involved that the death of nc
rooster would avail even had he
been a legatee.

The laws of physical inanimate

laws are so played the one against

modified and good results. There
is humor in the above narrative,
and there is food for thought too.
General Atchison, retired, had
the final say on breaches. But~we
recall that Mr.. Wade Hampton
Gibbs retired Indian Inspector,
had much to say upon the evil re-
suits of the Indian service by too
close adherence to rules and regu-

mand stringent rules, but petty
little matters like those rebuked
on the railway train may be pushed
50 far as to make ''the sublime

supremacy she; possessed at the

also that the submarine warfare OF
