The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1921-08-25
JOHN KERN, PR0SPECT0R, LAST RESIDENT
OF HIGHLAND, ONCE A PROSPEROUS CAMP

Many years before Butte was a
mining camp, Highland City, now one
of the ghost cities of the west, was a
thriving mining center. 1t had 10
stores, three saloons, two dance halls,
a lodge room or two and restaurants
and rooming houses. That Highland
City will ever come back is doubted
now by ever Johnny Kern, the sole
remaining resident of the camp,
where the exciting events of early
day mining in Montana made the
place a much gayer, less lonesome,
noisier community than it now is,
with only three shacks left standing
and one of these occupied by Kern,
often called Montana's oldest pros
pector. Kern came to Highland City
in 1866 and has ever since, with
brief intervals, been a resident of
"O1d Highland" as he calls it.. Kern
laughed when asked if he thought
Highland City would ever come back.

"Sire, my legs are not like yours"

FEW EYES REALLY NORMAL
Just as One Is Right or Left-Handed, So 1t Is With the Organs
 of Vision.

Very few people realize that they are as much right-eyed or left-eyed as they are right or left-handed.
 Sit down in a chair and fix your at tention on some subject on the other side of the room. Quickly hold your finger up right in front of the object, and instantly shut your eyes. Then without moving your head or your finger. open your eyes one at a time. If when you open your right eye, you find your finger directly in front of the object, you are right-eyed. In that case you will find your finger very much to the right of the object when you open your left eye.
 If you are right-handed you will most probably find that you are right eyed.
 This is due to the fact that of the two halves of your brain one is slight ly more developed than the other. And the organs and limbs on that side of your body which is controlled by the more developed half are able to carry out your wishes more easily and quickly than those of the other side.

Governor Asks $500, 1000 to Aid Pueblo
 Sufferers

Denyer-Governor Shoup has issued a proclamation in reference to the Ar kansas valley flood sufferers, calling upon the people of the state to com plete a fund of not less than $500, 1000 flor the purpose of partially rehabili- tating these suffering fellow citizens and placing them on the way to self support
 In his proclamation Governor Shoup cited the facts that in Pueblo 1000 persons are in absolute want, that the flood utterly destroyed 659 homes and wrecked as many more, and that the unusual nature of the tremendous damage to the business and farming interests in the Arkansas valley was such as to preclude the possibility of collecting any insurance.
 Simultaneously with the issuance of Governor Shoup's proclamation, the directors of the Denver Civic and Commercial Association made public statement in regard to the Pueblo flood catastrophe, calling for further and substantial responses by the citizens of Denver and Colorado"
