The moving pictures taken last
summer in Middle Greek canyon and
West Galatin canyon are to adver.
tise the scenic beauties of this val
ley nationally, as is shown by an ar
ticle printed in Los Angeles papei
recently:
Washington, May 27.-A motion
picture crew was sent by the United
States department of agriculture to
Montana last summer. 1t chanced up
on a practically unknown region
known by the humble name Of Mid

were made in the canyon and have
just been released by the department

jestic peak at the head of the can

The Hyalite canyon-as it may be
renamed, is part of the Gallatin Ma
tional forest in eastern Montana. Ac.
cording to the opinions of the visit
ors, it contains enough wonder tt

worth perpetual fame. Other scents

EX-SERVICE men TO
HAVE FIRST CHANCE
Governor Dixon Says that Former
Soldiers and Sailors will be Given
Preference on State Jobs

At the last legislature a bill was
nassed providing for the giving Oh
preference in state jobs to eX-servlce
men. William G. Ferguson, state
commander of the American Legion
recently wrote Governor Dixon con-
cerning this matter, and the COVER
nor's answer will prove of interest
to ex-service men in Gallatin county
seeking state positions:
Mr.. William G. Ferguson, State
Commander The American Legion OF
Montana. Miles City, Montana.
NV Dear Mr.. Ferguson:
Replying to your inquiry of recent
date. relative to the action taken py
the last legislature in regard to CIV
ing preference right to the eX-serv-
ice men in matters of public employ
ment. would say that the law pro-
vides that: 3,
"In every public department and
upon all public works Of the state
of Montana, and of any county there
of honorably discharged union sol
diers and sailors and their widows OF

them, provided they posses the busl

that none of the benefits of this ac
shall accrue to any person who re

cial in Montana, both state, count
and municipal, will be glad to C.
Ooerate in good.faith in the matter

the matter is calld to their atte

will not be printed for some weel

acted such laws has not been giv'
wide publicity.
In all matters of appointment he
at the state capitol, l am sure tn
the state officials have, in good fait
been trying to carry out the spi
of the law. \believe that if yC
as state commander of the LegiC
would address a letter to the coun
and city officials throughout
state, calling attention to the pl
visions of the act, they would be gl
to cooperate in every way possi
