Coach Romney is one of the best
known athletes and physical culture
directors of the northwest. He grad
uated from Montana State College in
1916 after a career as a wonderful
athlete for M. S. c. Later he was in
Salt Lake where he made an out
standing reputation as an athletic
coach. Last fall he was induced to
return to Montana to coach athletic
teams and direct physical education
at his own school.
I'VE want the best leaders we can
possibly get for these camps; hat is
why we engaged Coach Romney",
says Charles E. Potter, state club
leader. "The boys and girls of the
farms, we know, will come in con-
tact with a famous athletic director
who knows how to teach proper phys
ical health for young folks. While
the idea of play is strong in these
camps, the idea of general physical
is emphasized more. Coach
Romney will contribute wonders to
the health possibilities of hundreds
of young people of the state through
these camps"
Camps will be held some time be-
tween June /, and August Is in these
counties: Ravalli, Gallatin, Big Horn,
Valley, Yellowstone, Richland, Flat
head, Fallon, Fergus, and Judith
Basin, Roosevelt, Madison and Lewis
and Clark.

association with Martin Van Buren,,

constant companion until l was 16

Dutch lineage. Mrs. Van Buren, died
before l was born but the presidents
sons lived in the vicinity, John Van
Buren, being a prominent attorney.
An Educated Man
Il often wish I had been older
when I spent so much time with Van
Buren, so l could have learned more
from him in a political and historical
way. He was highly learned and
had travelled abroad. His message
to congress when he called a special
session to consider the financial
panic is said to be a splendid treatise
on the topic and an excellent liter
airy effort.
when we left his employ for
what my father considered greater
opportunity, he sent our family in
his coach to Albany and my last
memory Of him was his picturesque
figure On the big driveway and his
parting advice:
"John, always do what you think
is the right thing and when you are
an old man you'll have mo regrets"
Mr.. Cooney lives with his son at
Lake Avoca in Butte. He attributes
long life and good health to his
outdoorsllife. He is an inveterate
smoker and has drunk liquor in mod
Grafton since the days when people
made it for themselves. He has lived
to see days when the people are again
making it for home consumption.

MUTUAL MOVING
INTO The NORTH
RUMORED THAT BIG COMPANY is
BACK OF THE HOGAN DRILLr
ING CAMPAIGN
Lou Sontag, Mutual Official, Is Said
to be in Charge of Northern Devel-
opment; Pump Test May Start
Things.

RumOrs that the Mutual Oil
company of Maine, the dominant
Standard Oil subsidiary in the Cat
Creek field, will enter the Kelvin
Sunburst field found confirmation
this week with the arrival OF six
carloads of casing at Sunburst for
the Mutual.
Though the statement is without
official confirmation. it is under
stood that the Mutual will finance
the operation of the leases of Sena-
tor T. s. Hogan of Billings. Sen
ator Hogan has about 400 acres
in the center of the field, which he
is operating under the name of the
Hogan Oil company.
Senator Hogan passed through
Great Falls recently, en- route from
Sunburst to his headquarters in Bill
lings. He confirmed the fact that
Lou Sonntag, field superintendent OF
the Mutual, is now in the field, but
gave no comment on the reported
deal.
1t is stated in local oil circles that
the coming pump test on the Hogan
wells is to be a determining factor in
closing the deal. Tankage is now be-
ing arranged to pump the wells at
capacity for from "a to 48 hours or
such time as is required to fill the
1000 barrels of storage.
The Hogan No. 1 well has never
been pumped, though the rods are
in place. This we'll came in on Octo-
Der 25, 1922. 1t flower for several
days at the rate of 400 barrels per
day. 1t has been flowing, with occa-
siona1 swabbing, ever since that time,
maintaining about 275 barrels a day.
The Hogan was for four months the
largest we'll in the field, or until the
Ohio Oil company began drilling out
the Baker tract. The Hogan No. Q,
also on the Helmerichs lease, in Sec
ton 22-35-2W., is nearly as good as
the No. 1, though it's initial produc-
ton was not as large. 1t flowed after
it was drilled into the sand, which
is Is feet thick. 3
Arrange 2,OOO-Barrel Storage
Reports from the field are that
1000 barrels storage has been ar
ranged for the test. Two ~50O-barrel
tanks have been erected and enough
storage has been released through the
sale of crude for fuel in the field
to provide another 1,000-barrel ca
pacity. =

and you didn't go fishing. / did the

Henry Clay laughed long and loud
"He has you, Martin. Breach Of

when he grows up"
My customary fee was 10 cents sc
he paid and while the party waited
j got a fresh supply and got another
dime. Clay was very generous but
not a very good fisherman.
Old Fashioned Fishing
During the II years I lived there
/ rarely missed a Saturday I did
not go fishing with the president,
frequently just the two of US. They
fished differently in those days. We
used a sinker and float and a long
solid bamboo pole and selected a soft
spot on the bank until the float went
under water. Then we knew we had
a bite. Sometimes the old man
would doze off until the tug on the
pole awakened him.
"a hamper of lunch was always
packed for these excursions, with
several interesting bottles. The presi-
dent had his own wine, and cider
made on his premises but his whis-
key, brandy and fancy table vintages
he shipped in from New York.
Dinners were late and formal at
the big house, when there was COM
pany. There was plenty of music,
dancing, card playing and drinking.
Martin Van Buren, was no Puritan.
Clay's servants were slaves. Van
no slaves and no colored servants.
Often heated arguments we're held
far into the morning on national
issues such as slavery. During one
visit n of Clay's Wallets took French
leave. After a week he came back.
Freedom was not what he thought it
was. The poor fellow had it pretty
easy all his life. He had never
how to provide himself with
the necessities of life. He came back
hungry, soiled and travel worn and
begged to be taken back.
Political Gossiping

If You Need a Medicine
 You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why 1t is that so many products that are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason is plain-the article did not fulfil the promises of the manufacturers. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of it.
 A prominent druggist says Take for example pr. Kilmer's. swamp Root. a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent results, as many of my customers testify. tNo other kidney remedy has so large sale."
 According. to. sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation. the success of Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Root is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfils almost every wish in overcoming kidney. liver and bladder ailments, corrects urinary troubles and neutraliZes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
 You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp Root by Parcel Post. Ad- dress Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Bingham ton N. Y., and enclose ten cents; also mention this paper. Large and medium size bottles for sale at all drug StoreS-Adv. s-t-
