BOY SCOUTS AID
CITY CLEANUP
Spring Activities Include Assistance
in Big Move to Fix Up
Glasgow. ....

G. E. Moe, Scout Master, saws of
Boy Scout activities: With the open
ing of spring, there are many activ-
tiles to keep the Scout busy. Chief
amongst these has been the usual Sat-
urday hike. The overnight hike of
three weeks ago proved a very en-
joyable affair, and the ambition of
Troop No. l of Glasgow now is that
they may have week camp-out at
the close Of the school year. Vandalia
seems to be the general preference as
a location for the camp. The plans
are many and interesting, but first the
consent of the parents of sufficient
members must be obtained, to assure
a good attendance at the encampment.
1t is planned that the scouts will
hike to the camp site. A wireless re-
ceiving and sending set will be install
ed, so that communication may be
maintained with Glasgow at all times.
Camp equipment will be transported
by motor truck. All guns taken will
be kept in charge by the scout master,
as precaution against accidents.
Cleanup week is now on he calen-
dar. All scouts residing north of the
railway have been. ordered to distri-
butte their cleanup efforts over that
section of the city, and those scouts
residing south have similar duty to
perform on their side of town. In
place of hiking this Saturday, all
scouts will assemble at the usual hik-
ing time and place, for the purpose of
having final cleanup campaign. 1t
is hoped that such rubbish as tin cans,
paper, etc, will be unknown quanti-
ties in Glasgow by Sunday morning
Each scout is of course reminded that
his first cleanup duties commence at
home

Pistol Accidentally Discharged Wounds
AlOnzo Taylor-In Hospital
Recovery Probable.

Alonzo Taylor, a rancher living near
Porcupine creek, near Nashua, was
accidentally shot through the lung
with 32 calibre pistol, last Monday.
The wound is dangerous but not nee
essarily fatal.
Statements of Mr.. Taylor and his
IA year old daughter, as to the cause
OF the accident are somewhat con-
fused, but it seems that Taylor was
lying on a bed and the pistol in the
hands of his children was discharged,
the, bullet wounding him as stated.
There is no question but that the
shooting was an unfortunate accident.
The wounded man was brought at
once TO the Deaconess hospital at Glas-

Dr.. Hoyt. When asked regarding the
state of his patient the doctor said
that he was getting along we'll and
would probably recover.

quarters and Lays Plans.

taken by the association, comprising
80 to 100 cars which will cover the
highway in company from Duluth to
Glazier park. The tour will be cared
for in three states through which it
passes by the organizations of each
state in turn and preliminary plans
were outlined by Mr.. Tracy and agreed
to on the part of the officers of the
Montana association, who will at once
commence organization.
1t developed from Mr.. Tracy's state
ments that if successfully carried out,
the tour will result in much good pub
llclty for northern Montana, and be
big boost" for the highway, in it's
competition with other routes, for
tourists travel.
Mr.. Tracy claimed that considering
its entire length the Roosevelt High
way had the most attractions, the best
roads, and the most northern route of
any coast to coast highway; that to OBJ
tain for it full recognition, the tour
was to be used as demonstration. He
also gave some startling figures on the
cash asset that tourist trade was. to
towns along the route.
Another meeting will be held on Mr..
Tracy's return trip from Spokane,
where he goes to meet the Spokane
Rotary and other city clubs.
