OLD SETTLERS
ANNUAL REUNION.
FOURTEENTH ANNUAL REUNION
AT TOWER YESTERDAY WAS
ONE OF THE BEST EVER HELD
OLD TIMERS PRESENT FROM
ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD.
Owing to the fact that the Miner

goes to press before the account of the
Fourteenth Annual Reunion of the
Vermilion Range Old Settlers Associa-
ton at Tower yesterday can be written
and placed into type, we will be COM
PEELED to forego the detailed account
until next week.
We will say however that the meet
ing was very successful one and not
withstanding the rain which persisted
all forenoon up to almost o'clock in
the afternoon, the very large attend
ance enjoyed the day, in fact the
weather brought the attendance clos
er together under the roofs where the
tables had been placed.
At the banquet last evening, very
fine program was present. The ban
quet was presided over by the presi-
dent of the Association, Mrs. Peter
Schaefer. Not q small part of the
festivities during the afternoon were
the concerts given by the Ely City
Band, whose presence was made posi-
BILE by the contributions Of Ely citi-
zens.
The association was fortunate in
their choice of speakers. Although
Governor Christensen was called to
Canada on a diplomatic mission, he
sent his regrets and the well wishes
for the success of the reunion.
However, Arthur E. Nelson and DR..
Preston Bradley who made the princi-
pal addresses at the picnic and ban
quet, could not be improved upon. DR..
Bradley is the standby of the associa-
ton and yearly favors them with an
address. He is recognized as one Of the
best speakers in the United States and
makes his summer home on Lake YER
million. Arthur E. Nelson, former may
or of st. Paul and now a candidate for
U. s. Senator, made two fine addresses
during which at no time did he bring
politics into it out of Difference to the
non-political, non-sectarian nature OF
the membership of the Old Settlers.

KNIGHTS LADIES
OF KALEVA DEDI-
CATE NEW BUILDING

One of the most pleasant events of
the season was the dance given at the
Knights and Ladies of Kaleva camp
ground, eight miles north of the CITY.
Saturday evening. The function was
for the purpose of dedicating a new
recreation and dance hall, recently
erected there and it is estimated that
800 people were present from Red
Lodge, Roberts and surrounding coun-
try. Dancing was INDUCED in until
midnight, when refreshments, were
served.
The new building is 26x40, with a
wide veranda and a we'll equipped
kitchen. The dance hall has a splen-
did hard wood floor and the entire
edifice is well equipped and built
along artistic lines; the building and
grounds are well lighted by electricity
and good road leads to it from the
main highway.
The completion of the building was
hastened because of the meeting of the
supreme lodge of the Knights of Ka-
ieva and the Ladies of Kaleva, which
VIII convene in this city July 10, for
q weeks session.

RAILROAD MEN
ENDORSE WHEELER
FOR L. S. SENATOR

The state Legislative boards of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men and Enginemen, the Order of
Railway Conductors and the Brother
hood of Railroad Trainmen, in Joint
session in Helena followed up the ac-
ton taken last Thursday in endorsing
Senator Burton K. Wheeler and Con
gresham John Evans by forming
state Wheeler for Senator club.
The following Were elected officers:
Chairman, James O'Reilly, Havre, B.
Of [. F. and E.; first vice chairman,
George Wolfe, Great Falls, B. of L.
f., second vice chairman, G. W. Rist,
Havre, 0. R. c.; secretary-treasurer,
W. H. Hartley. Miles City, B. of
r. I.
The representative of local lodges
and divisions, present at the joint SEES
sion, took action for the formation of
local Wheeler for Senator clubs in all
railroad and industrial centers in the
state. From two to four delegates
were present from each of these com
munities. Clubs have already been
organized in Havre, Glasgow and
Great Falls.
The sentiment for Senator Wheeler
IS SO strong among the railroad work
ers of the state as to be practically
unanimous" said Chairman O'Reilly-
The same is true in respect to Con-
gresham Evans among those who live
in his district.
I'VE feel that common gratitude
and self interest dictate that we bend
every effort toward the nomination
and reelection of these two progress
sive democrats.
The same can be said in respect
to other branches of labor whether or
gained or not as well as to the farm
ers and the citizenship Of the state
in general.
The function of the state and local
clubs will be to disseminate informa-
ton concerning the splendid records
Of public service of these two men. It
unfortunately appears that much of

ONE DOLLAR A SEC
OND COST OF BROAD
CASTING G. O. p.

1t cost the National Broadcasting
company and associated stations more
han a dollar a second to broadcast the
republican national convention over a
nationwide network of AZ radio sta
ions, according to figures made pub
&c by Il L Aylssw r., president of
the NBC.
The same is expected this week
while the democratic national conven-
ion "goes on the air. from Houston.
over similar eoast-to-coast network
OF stations associated with the NBC.
The cost of broadeasting both con
Yentions is expected to exceed $780,
600, Mr.. Aylesworth said. The actual
cost of broadcasting the republican
convention was $1,000. The expense.
ne pointed out, is being borne entirely
by his company and the AZ associated
stations. Clients of the MIC spon-
soring regular weekly programs also
contributed to the convention broad
cast costs, he added, by willingly
oaneelling their programs on which
money and time already had been
spent.
The cost of broadeasting the re-
publican convention was divided as
follows:
Rental and operation of regular
NBG circuits at S1,65O an hour for
20 hours, $4,000; rental and opera
ton of special trans sentimental cir
cult at $1,000 an hour for 20 hours.
S24,000 installation and operation of
special pickup circuit in Kansas
City, $4,000; salary of personnel,
feportorial expenses and incidentals,
$4,000; total, $4,000.
As 20 hours contain $4,000 seconds
the figure of more than one dollar
second is reached.
With every possibility of the dem
oeratic convention squalling the re-
publican convention in length, the cost
for the coming convention broadcast is
eonservatively estimated to be equal
If not more than the republican
broadcast.

V0I Frs!

Inc phrase MONTANA
N E E Dis WILLIAMS AT
WASHINGTON" is not
mere campaign slogan. 1t is.
A PLAIN STATEMENT OF
FACT. 1t is based on two
grounds.
The FIRST is that the well
fare and progress of MON
TANA demands that we be
represented in the U. S.
SENATE by a man who
KNOWS Montana and her
needs; who has demonstrated
the finest qualities of citizen
ship throughout a long and
honorable career; who is
NOT politician but is a
practical, successful man
one who could and would do
worthwhile things for Mon
tana and whose allegiance
first, last and all the time is
to Montana and all her peo-
pie.
The SECOND is that no
man in Montana more nearly
measures up to this standard
than HON. CHARLES HI.
WILLIAMS of Deer Lodge.
If YOU do not know him
personally you owe it to
yourself and your state to
find out why, all over Mon
tana, every man and woman
who DOES know Charlie"
Williams is so earnest in the
contention that MONTANA
NEEDS WILLIAMS AT

NO OPEN SEASON FOR
REED BIRDS In STATE
[C0ntinned from ~ baael

Britain for the protection of birds
migrating between Canada and the
United States"
The department pointed out that
this bird therefore does not have
the status of a game bird and is not
subject technically to an open sea-
son as is the case with waterfowl,
for example. Under Article Z of
the Treaty and Regulation 10 of
the Migratory Bird Treaty Act Reg
ulations, however, the Secretary of
Agriculture has authority to per-
NIT any species of migratory bird to
be killed when upon investigation
they are found to be seriously in
furious to agriculture or other in
terest in any particular community.
Under this provision the Secretary
issued an order in 1919, authorizing
the killing of reedbirds during GER
tain months of the year, in an eff
fort to prevent extensive damage
to rice crops in the southern states.
In 1927 it was found that reedbirds
had been reduced to a point where
they were no longer doing serious
damage to these crops, which re-
quired the Secretary to withdraw
the order"

"CHLOROFORM THEM AT go"

! How do the brains of men of abil-
ity and genius differ from those of
men of ordinary intelligence? DR..
Henry H. Donaldson of the Wistar
Institute at Philadelphia has been
examining the brains of several not
ed men with a view of answering
this question. His studies have
thrown little additional light upon
the subject. 1t is of especial inter
est to the general public, however,
that one of the brains studied by the
Philadelphia scientist was that Of
Sir William Osler, the eminent Brit
ish physician, who died at Oxford in
1919 at the age of 80.
From 1884 to 1904 DR.. Osler was
professor of medicine in the United
States, first four years at the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania and then Is
years at Johns Hopkins University.
It was while at Johns Hopkins that
DR.. Osler was reported to have said
that all men should be chloroformed
at the age of 60. In the Medical
Record Of March 4, 1905, DR.. Osler
emphatically denied that he had ever
made such a statement.
Although the eminent British ply
sician probably never said that men
should be chloroformed at go, his
views on the subject Of working af-
ter that age are interesting. The
following statement made by him no
doubt gave rise to the false report:
"Study until Is, investigation until
40, profession until go, at which age
I would have him retired on double |
allowance" This, of course, is an
entirely different proposition. In the
same lecture, which was delivered at
Johns Hopkins in February, 1905,
DR.. Osler said: "The uselessness of
men above go years of age and the
benefit it would be in
in political, and in pro.
fessional life, if, as a matter OF
course, men stopped work at this
ge."LThe Pathfinder.
