WILL RED LODGE
CELEBRATE THE
4TH this YEAR?
Pilot Lucas Guarantees An
Air Circus as Special
Attraction.

Sunday afternoon Lieutenant Y. R.
Lucas of the National Parks Scenic
Always company of Billings landed
in an Eaglerock plane and at once be-
gan promoting the work of locating
landing field in Red Lodge. His
efforts met with immediate response
and the interested citizens called
meeting the next day and after look
ing over the various sites it was de-
cided that the land known as the
Weaver pasture, a mile north OF the
cemetery, was decided as being the
most ideal.
Attorney C. C. Rowan was appoint
ed to get in touch with the owners of
the quarter section and it is felt there
will be no obstacle in getting the use
of the comparatively level stretch Of
land 1t is close to town and will re
quire but little work in order to make
it an ideal landing place. Another
thing that is in its favor is that it is
large enough so as to provide a land
ing place for any size plane, small OF
large.
Mr. Lucas was enthused over the
selection and states that an official
visit of government men will see this
classed as a class A field, the best
there is. The ground will have to be
leveled with a scraper and it is easy
to mark it so as to show landings to
be made in any direction.
While the aviation field was being
talked over, much interest was egineed
in holding a Fourth Of July
celebration in Red Lodge this year
Mr.. Lucas stated ne would bring from
four to five planes here OH that day
If a celebration was given. Stunt and
exhibition flying will be done and a
parachute drop will also be featured.
In edition he stated they would re
lease day fireworks from the planes
and if wanted they would do fire
writing on the clouds in the evening
A public meeting will be held al
the court house Saturday night at
8:15 and it is urged that all in favor
Of a celebration be present. 1t has
been argued that our town was dis
eliminated on when Billings began
holding celebrations two years ago.
Ae that city has volunteered to keep
out of our way this year, now we
should take advantage Of the thing
we agitated so the past two years.
If we hold a celebration, we must get
busy at once.
The feeling among those backing
the proposition is that we should hold
a celebration that was absolutely free
to the public. If this is possible the
people must be on hand to lend their
support. While it was at first pro-
posed to hold the mass meeting Fri
day night, this has been given up as
on that night the miners union will
hold public meeting, having several
noted labor men here at that time to
give talks on current events.

FARMERS UNION
PICNIC SCENE OF
EXTRA BIG CROWD
Roberts Band Gives Concert.
Sports, Talks Feature
Days Program.

Last Sunday the Farmers Union
of Carbon County gave picnic at the
Kaleva grounds, three miles south of
Roberts. Never before has there been
as large a crowd at any similar event
in this neighborhood.
Arrangements for the picnic were
in the hands of Edgar Cruel of Boyd.
The music was furnished by the Car
bon County band, Roberts own com
pany of music masters, directed by
C. E. Hudson.
The program was announced by
John G. Abrahanison, popular and
we'll known resident of Carbon county,
owing to the fact that the state
president of the Farmers union,
James ]. O'Shea, who was to lead the
speaking program, was detained in
Sidney, Mont, at big farmers meet
ing there. Senator Hannah of Big
Timber was slated as the main speak
er of the day, but owing to an unfor-
seen incident was unable to be pres
ent and Representative Albert Budas
made the principal address of the day.
Mr. Budas discussed the farm issue
from the White House down to our
very own doorsteps. w. B. Scott,
president of the Farmers Cooper
alive creamery of Billings, delivered
an address and his subject dWelled
upon the progress Of the cooperative
creameries, also the cooperation be-
tween rural and city folks.
There were sports on the days
program for all-races, nail driving
contests and many other pastimes to
fill out a perfect day. The weather
was ideal, but just as the picnickers
were breaking up and going to their
homes a rain and high wind descended
upon the scene.

FINE CATCHES
THRILL LOCAL
FISHING FANS
Five and Half Pound Rain
bow Caught in Saltwater
Sunday.

The disciples of Isaac Walton have
been envious the past few days, at
leas chose who have. gotten out
the tackle ard purchased the license.
The cause To- - c,.eitement was
the fine display of fish in the window
of the Red Lodge Billiard parlor. A
group of Is fine Eastern Brook trout
was a part of those caught by James
Turner, Harry Lautney and Sam Tur-
ner in Twin lakes on Sunday. The
three gentlemen packed in over the
high line trail Saturday afternoon,
returning Sunday evening. They found
no snow on the trail and while the
lakes were partly frozen over they
were able to make a fine catch in rec
ord breaking time. The Is fish on
display weighed exactly 80 pounds.
The only thing the party regretted
was the fact they took no cameras
with them. The scenery was superb
and but little snow was to be seen at
any point near the trail.
Other fish displayed was two tine
Rainbow trout from the Saltwater
One weighed 513 pounds and was "a
inches long. It was caught Sunday
by Ruffil Puumala Another weigh
ing five pounds was caught the same
day by Spikes Koski.
Mr.. Turner, proprietor Of the pool
hall, states that he will conduct an
other prize contest again this sea
son. However, he will make a much
better affair of it and will give q
first, second and third prize for the
largest fish and prizes for the best
catches He will give the contest
later when he has decided on the
various prizes he will award.

A number of theories have been
advanced and considerable contro-
yersy has at times arisen regard
ing the source and method of origin
of the Great Dane. The name IN
dicates that this dog is native to
Denmark, yet it is common knowl-
edge that the breeds more recent
development is directly traceable to
the efforts of German fanciers.
Great Danes have been bred for
centuries abroad and records as
far back as the Egyptian period
prove that q dog Of this type was
then in existence. 1t is presumed
that the breed descended from such
dogs and that possibly the ances-
trail Great Dane stock spread to Ger
many, where 1T crossed with the
blood Of the Ulmer Dogge, Rott-
weller, Metzerghund, etc. The ime
sDeutsche Dogge" was adopted as
the official title for the breed In
Germany late In the Nineteenth GEN.

Famous Astronomer

Hipparchus, the Greek astrono-
mer, who lived more than 1000
years ago, long before any of the
modern astronomical instruments
had been invented, deserves much
credit for his accomplishments. says
the Kansas City Star.
He catalogued 1,0S0 of the stars |;
fixed latitude and longitude; deter
mined the length of the year, the
obliquity of the ecliptic, that is, the
inclination of the earth's equator
to the plane of revolution about
the sun; the eccentricity OF the
earth's orbit, how far 1t Is from
being circular; measured the dis.
lance to the moon, roughly, and
discovered the precision Of the
equinoxes, that the SUMS place
among the stars at times of equal
day and night constantly tends
eastward. This last discovery OF
Hipparchus waited 1000 years for
its explanation.
