MAJOR MARK D, H0YT
COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN
Appointed Valley County Chairman
in Roosevelt Memorial Drive
Campaign Oct. goth to 9th.

Major Mark D. Hoyt of this city
has been appointed by State Chairman
T. A. NARROW of Helena as county
chairman for the Roosevelt National
Memorial drive to secure the amount
allotted to Valley county as its share
in the $4,000 fund to be raised by the
state. Valley county is asked to fur
nish the sum of $4,000 and Major
Hoyt is confident that this amount
will easily be secured the first day
in one dollar subscriptions.
It is the desire of the committee
that the amount be raised rather by
the large number of subscribers than
by large subscription Of any individ-
ual.
In letter to the Courier Mr.. Mar
low says in part:
ut seems to the members of this
committee that it is fitting that the
name of Theodore Roosevelt be ex-
allied in Montana where many of his
earliest and most interesting activi-
ties centered. President Roosevelt
loved Montana; many of his most
treasured and enduring friendships
were formed here; the methods of
Montana's hospitable and chivalrous
people appealed passionately to this
brave, brilliant and red-blooded man.
Born, reared and educated in the east,
the scion of an old and aristocratic
eastern family, Roosevelt was essen

Around the evening campfires he
wrote enchanting and enduring stor-
les of Montanas majesty and wealth.

state was enriched and ennobled by
his wisdom, intelligence and virile
Americanism."

velt's untimely death, a movement

MACHINE CRASHES AT MALTA.

Malta, September 26th.-Special-
What might have been a very serious
accident occurred Wednesday after
noon about 4:30 when Jack Mabee, ac-
companied by his pilot, Lieutenant In
mis-, was returning to Havre in his
airplane, after making successful
flights at Poplar, Wolf Point and
Glasgow. When arriving at the out
skirts of Malta, the engine began to
cause trouble and they Immediately
searched for landing place. They
found suitable place to land, just
west of the water tank south of the
city, and after making a successful
landing, attended to the engine and
prepared to resume their flight to
Havre. The engine refused to work
as it should and after running on the
ground for several hundred feet man.

will have to be placed on the plane
before it will be safe to attempt to
fly.
The most surprising thing of all was
that neither Mr.. Mabee or Lieut.. In
mis- were injured in the least, although
shaken up quite bit.
The plane will, we understand, be
shipped from here to Havre to undergo
the repairs necessary to place it in
flying condition. A little thing like
an accident of this sort where no one
was injured will have no effect upon

HONOR CLUB PICNIC
A HUGE SUCCESS
Committees Arrange Affair Which
Was Successful Beyond All
pectations.

On Tusday eevening of the past
week the Honor or &c" club of the
high school gave the first of their an
nual picnics in honor of the high
school graduates who were leaving
for colleges and universities. The
special purpose of the picnic was to
secure funds with which to carry out
the program of the club. Any stu
dent winning honors in scholarship,
athletics, debate or other extra-cur-
ricular activities are awarded honor
certificates on commencement evening.
The club has adopted the program of
awarding a letter &c" suitable for
use on sweater to each honor stu
dent, and if any student wins four
letters and certificates during his or
her high school career the club will
present the student with a suitable
sweater on the evening of graduation.
The club at present is fortunate in
having aggressive officers and COM
mittees and they are going into their
new plans with energy and dispatch.
The picnic was managed by the men,
bers of the club now in attendance
at the high school.
The refreshments were in charge of
Zita Fried, Dorothy Behner, Gladys
Pool and the president, Olive Mckay:
the transportation was in charge of
Arnold Wedum and William Behner.
the amusements were directed by Mr..
Mobiles and Mr.. Huber. The whole af-
fair was successful beyond all the ex-
pectations of the club, the faculty ad-
visers and helpers, as more than thir-
ty dollars were taken in by the COM
mittee above expenses. The total re-
ceipts indicated that more than 200
students and friends attended the pic
mic.
The graduates of the high school
in whose honor the picnic was given
and who have left for college, are:
Ward St. Clair, Norman Bliss, Marv
Ebersole, Bessie Phillips, William Ma
bee, William Illman, Vivian Hovey,
Howard Cotton, Robert Cotton.

The people of Glasgow and. vicinity
We're treated to real exhibition of
aerial acrobatics Tuesday afternoon
when Lieutenant c. R. Innes, flying
the Jack Mabee plane, demonstrated
goodly number of death-defying
loops, twists and turns that have
made the "gentle" art of flying SO
popular.
The visitors stopped here on their
way home from Poplar where they en-
tertained the crowds at the Roose-
welt county fair and where they made
a decided hit, both with the crowds
and the fair management.
The flight at Glasgow was arrang-
ed for and financed by number OF
Glasgow business men who were de-
sirous Of giving the people of Glas-
gov an opportunity to see some real
aerial acrobatic work, and they were
more than repaid for the trouble and
expenditure by the splendid exhibi.
tion given by Lieutenant Innis Tues.

A number of Glasgow people took
advantage of the opportunity to go ur
as passengers and a few of these Mr.
Innis turned over" few times while
they were in the air. From all re.

The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1919-09-26

Friday, October 3, at 80 p. M, has
been set for the Northeastern Montana
Regional Good Roads convention to be
held at Glasgow.
A call for meeting has been sent
out by the local chamber of commerce
to county commissioners, county sur
veyors and other county officers, may
ors and other city officers, represen-
tatives of commercial bodies, farm
bureau officers and members, motor
car owners and all others interested in
good roads, in Blaine, Phillips, VAL
ley, Roosevelt and Sheridan counties.
for the purpose of organizing a good
roads association of this district with
view to furthering the campaign for
better highways in northeastern Mon
tana counties.
Prominent speakers on highways
are being secured to address the meet
ing. The state highway commission of
Helena is sending representative to
help in the organization. An organ
1zation such as those operating under
the names Of Eastern, Western, Cen
tral and Northern Good Roads asso-
ciation will be perfected with a pur-
pose OF cooperating with all agencies
interested in better highways. The
immediate organization of the north
eastern district is a vital necessity
in connection with successful working
out OF the programs Of the state and
federal good roads organization.
Letters are being received daily at
the office of the chamber of commerce
from those within the district, who
have expressed their sentiment of the
Importance of such an organization
and many are arranging to be in at
tendance.
Good roads boosters of every COM
munity in the district should attend
this meeting and bring with them sug-
gestions that will help make the
Northeastern Montana Good Roads as
sociation a successful organization.
The various benefits of good roads
may be grouped under two main sub
divisions, dealing respectively with
economic benefits and social benefits.
There is at present no unique or fin
nal measure of either the economic or
the social benefits accruing to a COM
munity or district by the establish
ment of good public roads. So in
timately are the public highways con-
nected with every aspect of community
life that almost any method devised
to measure the benefits of good roads
is incomplete.
Further information regarding the
good roads meeting on Friday, Oc-
tober 3, will be furnished by Sec
retary Jones of the commercial club.
Mr.. Jones has already received word
from several of the towns in the dis
trict to the effect that they will have
number Of delegates present at the
convention. The local chamber of
commerce will see to it that all guests
have ample hotel accommodations and
the city as whole extends hearty
invitation to northeastern Montana to
be at Glasgow on October 3rd, and
help the good work along.

When pay-as-you-enter cars were instituted the tips that used to come, or were coaxed the conductors way were largely dispensed with. But be- cause he could no longer garner tips from public service passengers Bill Reese, a. con on a line operating g near Denise, Teras, didn't believe in withholding them from others.
