Scout Trip In Montana

G. r Tuttle Barabc0, mas received
an issue of the Fromberg Herald
from his father, NJ. ]. futile, who
now lives in FrOmberg, Montana.
An item of interest in the paper
deals with a boy scout trip into the
heart OF the Rockies. The lads, 10
in number, pitched camp among the
pine trees near West Rosebud Lake,
Carbon Co., Mont, Around the camp
fire, the scouts voted to have sentry
duty during the night consisting of
relays of one hour for two scouts
Should any marauder enter camp
this would no doubt be very effective
as the frightened crys of the SEN
iris would no doubt bring help from
the neighborhood for miles around
The first morning in camp it was
discovered the sentries ate untold
quantities f"grub'. Sentry duty was
discontinued from the first night on
The most important event of the
day following was the discovery of
two water tight boats on the lake.
The lack of oars was made up with
poles and old boards. AS the scouts
motto is, BE Prepared" the far
sighted youths removed all unneces-
sary clothing before venturing out
into the boats. A hike was also
made during the week to a nearby
lake, supposed to be about four miles
distance from the camp, however, the
lowest estimate by any one of the
troop gave the distance as 81 miles.
A good road is now being built to
Mystic Lake which was visited by
the boys, but the scouts will have
the pleasure, of saying they walked
to she place when only a pack trail

RICHARD 7. RINGIING SON OF MRS DELLA
RlNGLiNG, BARABOO, REVIVES WILD WEST DAYS
In AN ANNUAL ROUN DUP AT BOHEMIAN, MONTANA

Attorney ]. A. Malone recently re-
turned from Bozeman. Montana
where he attended the Bozeman
Roundup or Stampede, an annual
event of the wild West" type that
owes its revival as a stage event to
the efforts of Richard T. Ringing
son of Mrs. Della Ringing, donor of
the Sisters hospital in Baraboo.
Starting in with his brother-inlaw.
Lester Work and several others. this
live youth, out of Baraboo organized
the Bozeman Roundup association
several years ago. This affair, a page
ant of the old days of the free range,
has developed into one of the institu-
lions Of the state. The roundup which
was held during four days in early
August, attracted thousands of yisi-
tors TO Bozeman. Most of them
were naturally of the present genera
tion, seeking the spectacle and out to
make holiday. But they were not
alone. With them came men to live
their lives over again-veterans of
the wild, free rangers of the past,
men grizzled and gray, many of them
rich cattIemen, others as poor as
when they rode the ranges fifty
years ago. But they all brought
happy memories and lived the life
again.
1t was a great spectacle, this
rough riding carnival of Richard
Ringing and his associate promoters.
The roundup is unlike any ordinary
wild west show-not a mere exhibit
tion where pail players show their
skill and people gather to pay for the
sight of it all. The roundup is
contest pure and simple. These men,
who participate, pay their own way
and pay their entry fees Rivalry is
keen and even bitter.
The men come out of every corner
Of the west, from the wide plains of
Canada TO the broad ranches Of Tex
as, from every state where cattle
roam the hills. Men come up, as of
old they came to the Olympian games
They come to a test of skill, dexter
ity and strength-to risk life and
limb, as accidents attest.
It is a wild game of riding, of rop-
ing and of bulldogging contests and
the men are swept into it, not for the
heavy purses alone, but for the mere
glory of the winning.
The cattle are OF the long horn

sey. Miss LANCE has spent the past
two months at the coast city and
| tells interesting facts concerning it,
The local woman is an ardent reader
! OF the Baraboo News.
Dear Friends:

and enjoy life for time at this won
! derful summer resort, since some OF
you are unable to have that pleasure
in reality III tell you little about
my personal experiences and possibly
in fancy we can enjoy them together
First of all I'll speak of the board
walk which is built on the shore of
! the ocean and is eight miles long
Everything of interest centers around
! it, or rather along it. On the land side
are all sorts of shops, restaurants,
and hotels like the finest palaces i'm
aginable,
An Attractive Place
The shops display the most bewitch-
ing souvenirs, so dear to the heart
of every tourist. Jewelry of the rar-
est quality and real laces from many
parts of the world. Even if one
cant afford to buy such beautiful
things, its such pleasure just to look
at them. Why be dismayed at the
prices in these high class shops?
There are several fine five and ten
cent stores with their wealth Of
pretty things. And should one feel
the need of food, Child's restaurant
is there to satisfy the hunger, with
honest to goodness food too / know
I've tried it, OF course not served as

fthe simplest meal quite staggers
one, and everything is on such
grand scale and room rent so high,
you are scared to speak aloud lest
they charge for the privilege and one
is lead to believe there must be
many many rich people to afford so
much luxury. The swimming pool
1T the Ambassador Hotel is the most
luxurious affair The water is heat
ed to proper temperature however
cold the water may be in the ocean
or the weather unfavorable for out
door swimming. All that is neces-
sary is to go down to the pool and
take your salt water. plunge.
I've spoken of some of the attrac-
tions on the land side of the board
walk. The ocean side has on it
magnificent piers built way out into
the ocean. On these piers one can
find amusements Of every descrip-
ton. Youngs million dollar pier for
instance has on il, a large moving
picture theater a dance hall and a
concert hall. This is true of the other
piers also. The electric Examinations
along the piers at night are indeed
like fairyland. Then too if you are
in quest of real thrills, take a ride in
an aeroplane. For a comparatively
small sum of money one can ride
quite a distance. There is boating.
fishing, horse back riding and so on.
Diversion for every sort of mood.
Even the churches (Of which there
are many are not closed during the
summer, but are open for worship.
Excursicnists come here on Sunday
by the thousands, And better behav-
ed crowds I've never seen. There
is the time when the men with the
rolling wheel chairs on the board
walk reap their richest harvest. For
there are always those TO whom il
