Choice of a Career
THE NINETY.FOUR
From the Yale News


Someone, probably an insurance
agent, was quoted recently as saying
that from the mass of one hundred
college graduates one individual only
rose to the Polo and butler class, peril
ously near the top of the financial lad
der. Five Others became comfortably
off and found themselves after twenty
years at the small yacht and chauffeur
stage. The other niney-four presum-
ably coneregate in the great section of
the American people who drive their
own BuickSto the golf club. In other
words, dreaming about being a rich
man is one thing, and making the grade
is something else again.
Yetthe ninety-four presumablywork
just as hard as the sumptuous six. Their
business is the axis on which a small
and uninterestine world revolves. They
have become devotees of the dollar
and when that tickle deity deserts, have
nowhere else to turn. Jammed in a
dull, straight rut of business they can
never leave the road and jump the fence
into finer fields of life. This, then, is
the portion of ninety-four men out of
every hundred now on the campus.
The answer to the problem lies in
the proper choice of a career.

Spike" Haynes Dead

According to news received in
Butte, Ned C. (Spike) Haynes, we'll
known Butte newspaper man, died
in Mexico City last week.
When Spike" Haynes left Butte
in the summer of 1919 to engage in
publicity work in the oil fields in
Texas, he left behind as large an
acquaintance as was enjoyed by any
resident of the city. Butte had been
his home for more than 20 years
during which time he engaged in
newspaper work except for a brief
season when he tried a theatrical
venture that failed. After engaging
in publicity work in the oil fields of
Texas he went to Mexico City to be-
come city editor of the Mexican Post,
the English paper of the capital.

Montana Has Old Relic

Probably the most ancient relic OF
historical interest possessed by a resi-
dent of Montana is a bagpipe owned
by Mrs. A. j. Hamilton of Helena.
This instrument was played by an
ancestor of Mrs. Hamilton at the bat
tie of Bannockburn in Scotland in
1914, and has descended in the Simp-
son family from generation to gen.
GRAFTON since that date. When Mr..
Simpson, Mrs. Hamilton's father,
died recently in Lewistown, the in
strument became the property of Mrs.
Hamilton to go to her eldest son.
Most of the progressive history of
civilization has been made since it
was used on the old battle-ground,
and the relic is of inestimable value,
through its associations there, in
every Scottish war, and including the
Crusades, since that time.

in order to get the stones ready to

his order be completed and the stone

RADIO CLUB RECEIVES
NEW RECEIVING SET

Several weeks ago Radio Club
consisting of about rs members was
organized in Devils Lake, and receiv-

few days ago and has been placed at
the city hall in Justice Duell's office.
Since that time the weather has been
such that it is with only the greatest
difficulty that anything can be got
ten out of the air. AS soon as the
weather gets normal again the set will
no doubt be in almost constant use
during the hours that messages are
broadcasted from the big stations in
the east.
