Bachelors Are Slain
To Preserve the Peace
Would Kill 100 of Them Who Make
Night Hideous.


SAN FRANCISCO.-Bachelor sea
lions, like any other variety OF bach
elors, are likely to indulge in noisy ca
rousals, according to Capt. Harry
Rhodes.
But Rhodes favors treating them a
little differently than most bachelors
are treated-he wants to kill 100 OF
them.
The particular 100 riotous males live
on Ano Neuvo island off the central
California coast, along with 200 ma
iron seals and their 200 husbands.
The bachelors put in their time max
ing nights hideous by their barking,
to such an extent that the lighthouse
service has difficulty holding keeper
on the job at the Ano Nuevo light
house.
Rhodes figured he couldn't force the
sea lions to marriage by bachelors
tax nor could be legislate them into
double harness. So, the only thing to
do, he declared, is to kill them and
he's looking for a sea lion hunter.

Australian or South American ant,
which drives in armies, overwhelming
in time any, wood structure in its path.
The cattle at the stock yard seem to
be free of attacks.
An attempt to stop activities Of the
pests by placing fly paper in their
path was frustrated when the ants
built dirt bridge across the obstruc-
ton and continued their operations.
By insulation and shutting off the ants
return to the ground, it hoped that
they army can be exterminated.

demonstrate that the schools of the
country are the workshops wherein
the future citizens of the United
States are made. This is the very
place where the yonng men and wo-

the fundamentals of what they will
devote their lives to. The exhibits

conditions of the state. Montana
has the best climatic conditions of
any for the treatment of this dread
disease, according to DR.. Hitchcock.
The mountain air, the great amount
of sunshine, pure water and every
other feature is just what is most
beneficial to those who suffer from
the disease.
The work being done by the state
at Galen Institute was covered thor
oughly. The need of additional build
ings for the care of children, and the
necessity for other equipment was
told. Red Cross stamps being sold
now are furnishing the means of Sc
curing some of the funds necessary
for the Galen Institute, but there is
need of greater financial assistance.
1t is hoped, he stated, that there
would be funds provided in the near
future for making the necessary adj
ditions to the Institute. The disease
is a curable one, he stated, and only
needs the attention of those who
know how to care for the patient to
/ effect it.

been greatly reduced, he stated, dur
ing the past ten years, as result
of work accomplished by the health
departments of the United States,
states and cities. Bubonic plague,
yellow fever, smallpox, typhoid, and
malaria have all been brought under
almost absolute control due to con-
stant work.
Submitting figures to show what
had been accomplished as regards
contagious diseases in Montana DUR
ing the past ten years, the speaker
offered the information that in 1910
there were but two states with a
higher death rate than Montana. In
| 1920 the death rate was only 4.S,
while the estimated rate for 1921 is
only 2.9 per 100. With this rate pre-
vailing for the present year, Montana
will head all the states in low death
rate.
The method of inspecting and test
ing water systems in Montana, with
the chemical analysis of each care

: in reducing the amount of diseas'

Hayward's Philosophy
e. f. Hayward, Conover Wis.
TRUE FRIENDSHIP

Tis good to get the handshake from
real true friend,
It brings thrill of gladness to the
heart,
To know there's really someone on
whom you can depend;
You feel that Of your life they are
part.
They always have a welcome mat
outside of their front door,
Their latch string always hangs
outside for you;
No matter what they've done for you,
they'd do little more;
How many friends have you, which
are thus true?
These are the kind who help you up
when you have fallen down,
And give you words of cheer to help
you win,
Who never pass you silently with
scorn, or sullen frown,
Because you like all others, CHANGED
to sin.
This kind Of friendship never dies,
tbs made from loves best part,
Their purse they'll open to a friend,
as quickly as their heart
In making friends let me advise, be
careful how you choose them;
Then when you find you have this
kind, be careful not to lose them.
