GOOD GOVERNMENT
CLUBS CONVENTION
ASK LEGISLATURE FOR INDUS
TRIAL HOME FOR GIRLS; Az
TER BAD HUSBANDS.
Would Have Mothers Pensions In
creased, and Prefer the Enforce
ment of Present Laws Rather Than
the Enactment of New Measures !;
Many Attend.

A large delegation of Butte club
women went to Helena a few days
ago to attend the annual meeting
of the Good Government League
clubs and to work for the following
measures:
An appropriation for an industrial
home for girls.
A survey of the home for feeble
minded children.
Increase in the amount of mothers
pensions.
Enforcement of present laws ra-
ther than more laws.
A rock pile for husbands who de-
sert their families, with the payment
of wages to the wife and children.
In the party were Mrs. Margaret
Rosa, Mrs. H. F. Carman, Mrs. H.
M. Kennedy and Mrs. ]. B. Ellis.
Have Enough Laws.
1--WE have enough laws" Mrs,
Rosa said. "What we will urge is
the enforcement of the present laws.
"An appropriation for the indus
trial home for girls we consider very
important. We want it mandatory
that delinquent girls be sent there
and that they be taught a trade, SO
that they may return as useful men,
bers of society.
"Another important matter we will
urge is survey of the home for the
ieehle-minded. This would not cost
$500, and it would give US an op-
portunity to go about improving con-
ditions in scientific way.
"The present home at Boulder cost
$4,000 and there is room for only
IS children. It is an ornamental
building and not at all practical. The
sum of $4,000 has been expended
for a building which will accommo
date only IS children and there are
800 children on the waiting list. Z
this building had been built right
the state would have saved much
money.
Couldn't Support Cat.
1.-THE existing mothers pension
we also consider Inadequate. The.
provide $40 for the first child, $7.5(
for the second and $3.50 for each ad
ditional child. The mother shoult
have SO for each child If she is ex
pected to stay home and care TO
them. No institution can take car
of children cheaper than that. II
Montana we cannot raise cat OF
$3.50 month"
Mrs. Carman is the supporter o
the bill to provide a rock pile 70
deserting husbands. A majority o
the pathetic cases which have com
to her attention as president of tn
Associated Charities have been tn
result of wife desertion.

His intention, as president of the
Montana Chamber of Commerce, to
devote much of his time this year to
making success of that organiza-
ton was announced by Louis New
man in his annual report as president
Of the Great Falls Commercial club.
"This is an era of organization"
he said. Farmers have seen the
wisdom; laboring people have en-
joyed the benefits of organized ef-
fort; professional men have profited
by the bond of union and at last the
business men have begun to wake
from their lethargic sleep. The
purpose of this organization will be
to coordinate effort in upbuilding
our state and it's various sections. 1t
will be to attract people, to interest
capital, to promote industry and to
foster friendly relations between la
borer and employer.
I'VE have in mind a Greater Mon
tana convention to be held in Great
Falls sometime this year when we
shall bring leaders in all lines to the
city to have part in our proceed
ings. We believe that the Montana
Chamber of Commerce will offer an
agency for much good and that it is
entitled to the support Of your good
will and moral encouragement"
Mr.. Newman called attention to
the fact that, of the several hundred
businesses, old and new, large and
small, in the city, only two or three
were without the fold of the CONNER
cial club. In directing attention to
the 5000 increase in population re-
! vealed by the convass of the Polk
directory company, he recalled that,
in placing the years increase at
5000 some months ago, he had
himself underestimated the city s
growth.
The club has changed it's methods
of choosing officers and directors.
Heretofore the membership elected
the officers and the president there
upon named the directorate. This
year the membership elected a board
Of directors, which will select the
new officers within the next few
days. Mr.. Newman has declined to
serve as president for third term,

Dealing With Live Problems;
characterized as Most Successful
Short Course Ever Held in State.

Fergus county, always among the
first, sustained it's reputation by
holding. January l to 6, the most
successful farmers and homemakers'
short course ever put on in the state.
The meetings were all under the aus
pices of the Fergus County High

gus county, the courses filled a place
in the betterment of Montana farm
ing probably never before reached in
the state.
Sound Wheat Requisite.
Some of the most interesting talks
were given by Mr.. Day, chemist for
the Montana Flour Mills company.
He showed the Importance of the
right kind OF wheat farming to the
production of the best kind of flour
and had exhibits to show that you
can't make good flour unless you
have good, clean, sound wheat to
start with.
r. l.. Thompson lead the discus

attracts a great deal of attention
none could have been more instruc-
tive and interesting than that held
at this Fergus county institute.
