He has been one of the model young
men of the community in which he

has prostrated the young wife, and
the parents are stricken with grief.
The entire community mourns the loss

William Buttleman. j., was killed
Wednesday morning, when a four
horse team he was driving, attached
to a seed drill, became frightened and
ran away. Details of the accident
are not available, and it is possible
the cause of the runaway will never
be known. A man working in an ad-
joining field saw the team running,
and saw young Buttleman entangled
in the drill wheel. While the man was
running for assistance to the house
a quarter of mile from the scene of
the accident, the body was thrown
from the drill and the team stopped
against fence.
William Buttleman, Jr., is son of
former County Commissioner Buttle-
man, of Willow Greek. He was about
% years of age at the time of his
death, and had grown up at his home

We, your committee on program of

In regard to the vote submitted re-
lative to the holding of monthly for
um, we find the ballots almost un-
animously in favor of monthly for
um, to be held in the evening; the
members really desire such a forum,
and will attend. Your committee,
would, therefore, recommend that the
board of directors arrange, for a
monthly forum of the members of
this organization, as provided in the
bylaws, for the consideration of COM
munity matters.
We find running through all of
the questionnaires, a decided senti-
ment for the building of better
community spirit, and for a greater
unity of public thought and action in
community affairs.
Having given careful consideration
to all these answers in the quest
ionnaires, investigated carefully the
matters remaining yet unfinished
from the program of work for 1921
your committee begs leave to recon-
mend the following major and minor
program of work, for the consider
alton and adoption by the members
of this organization:

and greater chamber of commerce.

SCHOOL CHILDREN WILL
PRESENT QUEEN OF MAY
Cantata of Exceptional Musical
Beauty to be Given by City Schools
At Emerson Auditorium

Friday evening the pupils of the
Bozeman city schools will present
musical festival "The Queen of May"
at the Emerson auditorium, which
will be a musical cantata of excep-
tional attractiveness. An the chill
dren of the schools have been prac-
ticing for the cantana for some time,
under the direction of Miss Marian
Huson. There will be a number of
choruses comprising children from
the different grades, with about 600
pupils taking part in the program.
The story of the cantata follows
the old English custom of the chill
dren selecting a Queen of May from
among their number every spring.
In the cantata all the children meet
in the woodland for the purpose of
selecting the queen. While they are
in the woods, fairies and elves dance
and play about thm, and when the
queen is selected all join in the festiv-
tiles. Helen Chavey will be Queen
of May, while Ester Brotherton will
be queen of the fairies.
Many fancy dances will be staged
by both boys and girls. These will
be attractive for their costuning and
beauty. 1t is to be a real musical
festival, in which the parents of the
school children will be highly enter
tanned, and large attendance.i sis ex-
pected. Tickets are being sold by the
school children this week.
