GRANDMOTHER AT 66 STILL IN FRONT RANK
 OF WOMEN GOLFERS
(Ry Associated Pressl

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Apr. 27.--A silver-haired grandmother who quail fled for the first women's national golf championship held in the Uni ted States in 1895 still must be reck- oned among the first g women golf CTS of this country.
 Mrs. Caleb F. Fox of the Hunting don Valley Country Club holds no national title, nor has she ever held one, but her consistently steady play over a span of 30 years is without ] parallel in golf or, perhaps, in any other sport. Tn that time Mrs. Fox has won sectional and local cham pionships many times, and is stil, capable of winning them.
 It was at the Meadow Brook Club, Reading, Mass, in 1895 that Mrs Fox first qualified for the national championship. That was compar- atively easy achievement then for there were only 100 or 200 women golfers in the country. In subse- quent years, however, when the num- Der of players increased to thous- ands, Mrs. Fox continued to qualify Since 1895 she has failed only four times, in 1911-13, '23 and '24, to gain admission to the select g. In 1923 she suffered an injury just before the championship.
 Mrs Fox has been national final ist once and semi-finalist twice She penetrated to the final round at the Philadelphia Country Club in 1899, losing to Miss Ruth Underhill, and l, after a spirited struggle. She reached the penultimate round in 1908 and 1909.
 Mrs. Fox has won the Philadelphia championship five times, 1902, 1908, 1910, 1911 and 1917. Two years ago in a tournament that attracted the country's leading stars to Belleair 1ISlShto, II Id., w lClc IhIS. \ UA Sp6uuS her winters, she astounded the golf ing world by defeating Miss Glenna Collett, who was then the seeming ly invincible national champion. Miss Collett, young and strong, was at the pinnacle of her ability and fame. Mrs. Fox was just a veteran, one who had qualified for the national championship before her youthful op- ponent was born, yet she triumphed fairly and incontrovertibly.
 Although 66 years of age, Mrs. Fox does not look it. She is rather statu- esque and robust Her hair is gleam- ing white and no tournament of note is complete without her. She is ex- tremely popular and her counsel is eagerly sought by younger players.

TO ALL COMRADES OF THE
 SPANISH AMERICAN WAR

A campaign is on to unite all Spanish American War veterans as members-at-large, where there is no organization of the United Spanish American War Veterans. There are no camps duly organized in Alaska as there are not enough veterans in any one place to form an organiza- tion. Hence all veterans of the Spanish War are requested to become members-atlarge, thus becoming as sociated with the order and receiv- ing the benefits of the order and in a position to help other comrades to those benefits. The organization is doing good work for all veterans and it behooves all veterans who are not affiliated with the order to do so as soon as possible and help with this work. Let's get together and show our strength in Alaska and have a large membership-at-large to help the National organiza tion The under signed will be glad to furnish all in- formation and blanks.

Cattle Turn Gladly
 to Sunflower Silage

EDMONTON, Alta, Apr 27.-Des- pised as a worthless weed a few years ago. sunflowers have develop ed into an important silage crop in western Canada, according to a bull letin of the department of agricul- ture.
 Alberta produced a sunflower crop of nearly 100000 tons last year, the largest output yet recorded. Two dollars a ton was the estimated cost of all production. Considering the high food value of the crop, the bull letin declared it to be the cheapest silage or fodder crop ever raised.
 Development of the crop is due to the expansion of the dairy industry, said the bulletin The gospel of the sunflower was first preached by ex perts. Many farmers sowed small fields to the plant. The experiment. was successful. From 20 to 9 tons an acre can be expected from sun flowers and, as they are succulent, stock find them palatable, the bulle tin asserted

Sureties Worth More Than
100000 Indicate Esteem in
Which Efficient Law Enforce

Former Bond Cancelled on Ac
count of Damage Suits
Now Pending

Sheriff James Smith filed a
personal bond in the amount of
$1,000 with the county commits
siOners this week, and it was APP
proved by Judge Ben B. Law on
Monday.
The bond bears the names of II
substantial farmers and business men
of Gallatin county and is to take the
place of a surety bond recently can
celled by the company.
Solid Backing
Each of the men whose names ap-
pear upon the instrument is required
to be worth the full amount of the
bond over and above his other liabili-
ties, and most, of them are rated at
considerably more, so it is conserya-
lively estimated that the financial
strength of the sheriff's bOndsmer
is considerably above 100000.

Great Falls.-Senator Burton X.
Wheeler, Democrat, Montana, a storm
center of national politics, was in
dicted by a federal grand jury here
April 8, 1924, on the charge of IL
legally appearing before the depart
ment of the interior in behalf of his
client, Gordon Campbell, Montana oil
operator.
He was specifically charged with
accepting a fee of $4,000 for prose-
cutting CampbelPs government oil
prospecting claims after being elected
to the senate. This, the indictment
charged, was in violation of section
l113 of the United States penal code.
The accused senator, appearing on
the floor of the senate the next day,
branded this indictment as a frame
upon the part of the department of
justice because of his activities as a
prosecutor for the Daugherty senate
investigating committee.
Walsh Asks Probe
His colleague, Senator Thomas ].
Walsh, asked the senate to investigate
the case. A committee, headed by
Senator William E. Borah, of Idaho,
probed the circumstances surrounding
Wheelers indictment and the Mon
ltanan was wholly exOnerated" by
the committee report, which was
adopted by the senate.
Short work was made of the case
when it reached court. Federal Judge
Frank S. Dietrich, of Idaho, was
called to preside after the two Mon
ltana judges-Charles N. Pray and
George M. Bourquin - disqualified
themselves.
A jury was obtained before the end
of the first court and the government
plunged into its task of attempting
Ito prove the charges. It introduced
a mass Of documentary evidence in
ltended to show that Senator Wheeler
agreed to accept a fee of $4,000
from Campbell for his services.
Lawyer Explains $4,000 Fee
John M. Cooper, Of Lewistown,
testified, however, that the $4,000
fee was for defending a receivership
suit brought against Campbell by L.
C. Stevenson, a rival oil operator,
formerly Campbell's partner. Let
ters and kilograms exchanged be-
tween Wheeler and Campbell were
introduced. These the government
contended, showed that Wheeler
agreed to ''fix things up in Washing
ton for Campbell
The crux of the prosecutions case
: was reached when it brought George
P. Hayes, New York attorney, to the
stand as surprise witness.
Hayes testified that he met Senator
Wheeler in New York, March Is, 1923
just before the senator sailed fol
. Europe and that Wheeler asked hin

Eight of these cars will be on the

be completed this year.
Besides marking the trail, the
drivers of the cars visit tourist camps

The week of May 3rd will be
Post Card week for BOzeman and
Gallatin county, fOstered by the
BOzeman chamber of commerce.
During this week every citizen Of
this city and county is urged to send
at least one post card and as many
as possible to friends, relatives and
acquaintance everywhere, calling at
tention to the attractions of Boze-
man and Gallatin county. The stores
are well stocked with picture post
cards and folders of many views.
Postage Increased
There is one point to be remem-
bered and that is that all postcards
now require twO-cent stamp instead
of the customary one cent postage.
Here is where each citizen, man,
woman or child can render a distinct
service to Bozeman and the commu-
unity by sending one or more post
cards. This is a small thing to ask
each one to do but in the aggregate
it amounts to a great deal of publicity
at very small cost.

UNsUNG HEROEs

IulS WOElu is an -dDluluB place VI
heroes. Unknowingly we rub elbows
with them every day. In New York,
three firemen formed themselves into
a human chain and hung from the
roof Of a burning, five-story building
TO rescue a girl in a top-stOry win
dow. They caught her just as she
was about to leap. The four were
hauled back to the roof and safety
by others.
In Los Angeles, a frenzied crowd
threatened to lynch a negro after he
had stabbed, in a cowardly manner,
white man who had censured him for
not having given his seat in a street
car to a standing, white woman.
Through the efforts of passing mo-
torist, M. Markowitch, who pleaded
with the mob to allow the law to take
its course, the negro was finally
turned over to officers. A mob is
not a debating society. 1t is an un-
reasoning aggregation of crazed in
diyiduals which generally sweeps all
opposition before it. To oppose it,
as M. Markowitch did, indicates
natural courage of rare degree.
Within the last few weeks l have
mentioned Andrew Young, who saved
the town of Turlock, Cal, from dis
.aster by plunging, time after time
into a blazing dynamite warehouse
and carrying the explosive contents
to safety; and Bruce White, the young
English bacteriologist who, at the
risk Of his lifes swallowed deadly
germs in order to study the effect OF
certain poisons on the human stOn-
ach.
Every day, in the street, at the
theatre, along all the varied byways
frequented by man, we jostle against
these unsung heroes of ordinary life,
failing generally to recognize them
as such or to give them the credit
that is due them. We praise the
soldier who carries the battle to the
trenches of the enemy, and rightly So
War psychology and the support CT
valorous comrades, however, have i'm
pcrtant parts in providing inspira-
ton for the military hero. 1t sens
to me that when personal bravery is
the result only of ones desire to dc
Ii duty, and inspiration comes solely
within ones own heart and mind
heroic achievement is more praise
worthy than it could be otherwise.

Festival Of Spring
Many Centuries Old

The custom of holding a spring fes-
tiyal to celebrate the revival of the
earth's life for the year-the custom
of which the Christian Easter has been
only a comparatively recent develop
ment-dates back. to the remotest an
tiuuity of the nations. and this instinc-
tive desire to rejoice openly at the
return of the spring season still seems
to be the predominant characteristic
of the Easter festival. It's religious
significance is of course observed with
ceremony in the churches, but the day
is also anticipated and made much of
in a variety of ways entirely unrelated
to the church or its services. In its
worldly aspect it differs little in its
nature froll the ancient pagan festival
which commemorated spring. The
same idea of the season inspires it us
that which prompted the celebrations
thousands of years ago; the differences
are only those which the modern mode
OF life has instituted.

A MOST popular French name which
= = has gained great ogue IN this
country is MarceIla. 1t is a Maize
With a distinguished, origin and his
tory. It comes from ancient Rome di-
rectly, though it's earliest origin is
found in the Greek word meaning
soft or tender. yet by curious twist
this word signifies ''of Mars" and
hence should he regarded as term
denoting strength or an ironlike
quality.
In early Rome Marcus was a name
belonging to a noble gems of Sabine
origin which gave a king to Rome
and later named the high-spirited Mar
Gus Coriolanus. The daughters of
this gems were called Marcia or Mar
zia, and later from the same origin
sprang Martina. The aforementioned
was mace famous by one Of the young
Roman girls who endured martrydon
under the Emperor Decius.
There was st. Marcellus among
the Romans. He figured among the
warrior sex of Venice and had
French Eamesake called Marcel. The
feminine counterpart. Marcella, made
its first appearance as the name of d
pious widow whose friendship With.
