ROTARY CLUB HOST
LIVINGSTON'S CLUB
The Two Organizations Hold
Joint Meeting at BOzeman
Hotel Tuesday Evening.
Good Talks Made
Members of Rotary From Both Cities
Talk of Great Work to
Be Done

Sixty members of the Livingston
Rotary Club attended the meeting as
guests of the Bozeman Rotary Club
at their monthly evening session held
Tuesday at the Bozeman Hotel. The
visitors came over in autos for the oc-
casion, arriving in the city about
o'clock. The meeting was a lively
one, with a number of amusing incl
dents happening to various members
of both clubs.
John Lovelace presided at the meet
ing and acted as POSTMASTER during
the speaking. Many short talks were
given by representatives of the two
organizations, all carrying the mes
sage Of good-fellowship and cooper
alton. Jack Harader, for the Boze-
man club, welcomed the Livingston
Rotary Club. and in making his talk
he dwelt upon the pleasure derived
by the men Of the two cities in get
ting together for an evening Of such
nature. His talk was pleasing and
carried the spirit Of Rotary through
out.
DR.. George WinsOr responded in be-
half of the Livingston guests, giving
talk that was met with great ap-
plause. He called the members at
tention to the fine condition of Mon
tana today; told them there was no
greater state than Montana, and no
better cities in the state than Liv-
ingson and Bozeman. He urged every
member to, forget any of the Difficult
ties experienced in the past, to look
forward to the blessings to come, and
to boost for the greater state, and the
best part Of that state to be found IN
the country.
Chairman Lovelace then called
upon Alfred Atkinson, president of
Montana State College, to speak upon
Rotary Possibilities" Mr.. Atkinson
expressed his pleasure at being a
member of an organization which had
such high ideals ,and outlined the
many ways the organization can use
its membership to further the peace
and good viii, not only IN the immedi-
ate locality but throughout the world.
That Rotary is an international asso-
citation, he stated, places it in a posi-
tion TO use the efforts of its mem
bership to bring about better under
standing among nations, and in that
manner help to prevent disagreements
and wars.
Mayor Louis Terwilliger. of Living
ston was then called upon and after
becoming the victim of a real joke,
gave an earnest and most pleasing
talk upon the pleasures Of Rotary
Club meetings

Strike OF RaillUay Shopn1en Is
NotO Threatened For July First
Result Of Vote Declared Bring About Strike Unless Labor
Board Recind Their Order For Cut in Wages Head
r. of ShOpcraft Makes Announcement

CHICAGO, June 27.-A strike of
the 100000 railway shopmen of the
country will be called for July 1,
unless the railroads agree to stay the
S6O,000,000 wage cut for the shop
workers on that date and to restore
certain working conditions formerly
in effect, it was made known here
today through a telegram from B.
M. Jewell, head of the shop crafts, to
the Association of Railway Execu-
tiives.
Decision to call strike came late
today after lengthy discussion by the
executive committee of the six shop
crafts unions, based on the strike vote
of the men thus far received.
The committee left but one loop
hole to avoid strike. If the rail
heads arrange an immediate confer
ence, agreeing meanwhile to continue
present wages restore working rules
nsodified by the railroad labor board
and discontinue farming out railroad
work, a walkout can be averted, tbs
telegram said Otherwise, SO sane
ton Of withdrawal from employment
on July /, 1922, as voted by the EN-
pIoyes, will be unavoidable"
The 2 500-word telegram, addressed
to T. Dewitt Cuyler, chairman of th'
Association of Railway Executives
threw no light upon the actual Strike
vote beyond saying IL was an Aover'
whelning majority"

COL. c, B. nolan IS
BURIED AT HELENA
Eminent Lawyer of State Dies After
Short Illness. Held In
High Esteem

Colonel c. B. Nolan is dead. Demise
of the eminently known pioneer law
yer of Helena occurred at Murray
Hospital in Butte at 4:25 o'clock Sat-
urday morning. Probably no public
man had been held in higher esteem
in Montana, and his death has caused
universal regret, not only throughout
Montana, but throughout the north
west as we'll Endowed through life
with unusual courage and fortitude,
probably no man ever exhibited a
more valiant fight for life than did
Colonel Nolan. The spirit he dis
played in the last few days had so
imbued those staunch friends who
surrounded his bedside that they
would not believe that he had re-
ceived his final summons. Having
known him through life as a success
full defender against earthly foes,
Colonel olan will live," was the
hope expressed, even after attending
physicians had announced death was
inevitable.
With the impressive rites estab-
lished by the grand lodge of Masonrv
for FORMER grand master, Colonel
G. B. Nolan, once attorney general of
Montana and long known as one of
the ablest lawyers in the west, was
laid to rest in a local cemetery
after services at the consistory tenn
! pie. Colonel Nolan died last Satur-
