-'0O-O @~oh(
Boston, Mass, Nov. 11.-There has
been recently established at 224 Tre-
mont street, Boston, Mass, a library
known as the Universay Library. This
institute will lend books in any part
of the country by mail Such serv-
ice has been long felt public need
and will go far toward the elimina-
ton of illiteracy, and will be great
boon for the promotion of reading in
general. People living in the remote
districts will now have the same op-
portunity of borrowing books as those
who dwell in the larger cities. The
low parcel post rates will greatly aid
this service for the cost of delivery
will, be only a trivial Another ad-
vantage is that books may be re,
tained long enough to allow fifteen or
twenty days reading plus time re-
quired for travel by, mail.

COMMENCES AT
WASHINGTON RELATIVE TO
PROPOSED IRRIGATION DAM

Washington, Feb. 22.-Hearings on
the bill of Senator Walsh, Democrat,
Montana, authorizing the utilization Of
for irrigation purposes were begun
Yellowstone national park flood waters
Tuesday before a senate committee.
Senator Walsh in explaining his
measure said "people expellent in in
telligence, but limided in information" !"
were obscessed with "dread that the
people of Montana intended to commit
a sacrilege against the park" and
asked his associates in the senate to
suspend judgment until they got the
facts"
The committee was told that by
merely holding back the flood waters
to the mean high level for few weeks
in each year 100000 acres of land out
side thep ark and in Montana could be
made fertile.
Denying that the irrigation project
involved any damage to scenic features
of the park, the senator said the
people of Montana and their congress
sional representatives were more anX-
ious than anybody else to preserve
these.
Further, it is being asserted that
some attempt is being made to get
Yellowstone park resources for hydro
electric power plants, he said. "The
bill will cave any hydro electric power
facilities that may be Incidental to
daming the flood water entirely under
control of the United States where it

With Great Northern Railway to
Settle Deserted HOmcsteads.

Malta, Feb. 24.-At meeting Of the
Malta Commercial club it was recided
to enter extensively into land settle
ment program in cooperation with the
immigration department of the Great
Northern railway. By this means it
is hoped to bring bona fide settlers in

crop failures. A cammittee was ap-
pointed to work out details of the ven
ture.
Circulars containing farm scenes anG
descriptive matter are now being pre-
pared and will be sent broadcast thru
out the middle western and eastern
states. These circulars will give pro-
spective settlers some idea of the vast

LOST IN FIERCE BLIZZARD
ZORTMAN MAN IS FROZEN
Body of Man Caught in Last Tuesdays
Storm Is Found on Sunday Last
Near Town of ZOrtman.

Malta, Feb. 23.-The body of Albert
J. Stafford, who it is believed was
frozen to death while lost in the storm
of last week Tuesday, was found near
Zortman Sunday by party of search
ers and brought to this city late that
afternoon by Coroner R. V. Tucker.
Stafford had been working in the
woods near Zortman and was lefa in
camp while the others of the crew went
into Zortman. 1t is supposed that he
wandered away from camp and be-
came confused in directions and when
night came on was unable to find his
way back to camp. He wore no over
shoes and it is thought his feet became
frozen which made further travel i'm
possible.
Stafford was single man and came
here from Canada several months ago.
He has no known relatives.

St. Augustine, Fla, Feb. 22.-Presi-
dent-elect Harding completed his cab
met today by virtual selection of Ed
win DENLY of Detroit, Mich, as secre-
tary of the navy.
The choice was the first big surprise
among the cabinet selections. Mr..
Denby's name never having appeared
in newspaper speculation about the
navy post. He is an attorney and for
mer member of congress and has
served as an enlisted man in wartime
in both the navy and marine corps.
Herbert Hoover Of California, and
James J. Davis of Pennsylvania, also
virtually have been chosen for mem
bership.
A tentative offer of the portfolio of
commerce is understood to have been
made to Mr.. Hoover, and the general
expectation here is that the former
food administrator will accept.
Mr.. Davis, former steel worker and
now banker, is to be secretary of
labor if the cabinet slate goes through
as it now stands. 1t is believed nc
final offer has been made to him al
though he has been asked to hold him
self in readiness for the appointment
1t became known that all Of the
seven cabinet selections previously re-
garded as virtually certain had been
finally put into the class of certainties
Two of these, Charles E. Hughes of
New York for secretary of state, and
Harry M. Daugherty of Ohio, for at
torney general, have been announced
by Mr.. Harding himself. The others
are: Will H. Hays of Indiana, for post
master general; John H. Weeks OF
Massachusetts, for secretary of war;
Andrew Mellon, of Pennsylvania, fol
secretary of the treasury; Henry Wal.
lace of Iowa, for secretary Of agricul.
ture; and A. b. Fall of New Mexico

Legislature of Montana
Addressed By Governor

American, thereby to renew our de-
votion to the people.
"Washington's influence on every
ones life here is greater than we real
ize. AS drop of water on the crest
of the great divide may be diverted
into the Atlantic or Pacific by peb-
BILE, so might our history be Indifferent
if the revolution had failed. Would
our influences have been English or
French? If the revolution had failed,
would the Louisiana purchase, which
included Montana, have fallen into the
hands of the English speaking races?"
The governor traced Washington 5
life in considerable detail from the
time he was born. as a surveyor, as a
military man, as the first president of
the United States. In conclusion, he
read many excerpts from Washington
speeches.
Senator Junod and Representatives
Black and Reeves escorted the COVER

BOWdOin Terminal
Is Discontinued
By Great Northern

Commencing, Sunday, February
9th, the freight terminal for the
Great Northern at BOwdoin, will
be discontinued in service and all
trains will run to Wolf Point from
Havre, distance of POP miles.
All Great Northern shops, re-
pair departments, stOrehOuses and
Offices, with the exception of the
depot, will be closed there and
trains will stop only when neces-
sary, according to information re-
ceived here yesterday.
Company officials at Bowdoin
will use their seniority in prOcur-
ing positions in Havre and else
where on the system.
The cause for the discOntinuance
is given as due to the exceedingly
light traffic, making layovers at
BOwd0in useless and causing add.
ed expense.
A new time card for the Mon
tana division will come out Febru-
ary 27. The only changes on the
card will be those in reference to
the terminal which has been dis
y continued.

reveille and mess call of the real old

There was the father with his first

and those, too, whose sons had ar

made a place for themselves in the
world There was also the man who
having no son of his own, had bor-

and other fathers We're surrounded by
more than one son. And, while some
of the fathers had traces of "frost" on
their temples, they were all boys to-
gether for this one night.
The patriotic decorations reflected
the spirit of the natal month of Amer
ica's two greatest statesmen, and add
ed an impression to the occasion which
could have come in no other manner.
