Col. Sheridan
TalkSatLegion
Gathering

One OF the most successful and en-
! JoyaDle meetings ever held by the
Austin Reedy Post of the American
| Legion was that of Monday evening
when Col. Chas. Sheridan of Great
Fails was present and addressed a
large gathering of ex-service men
The meeting was held in Legion Hall
and about DO World war veterans
were present.
Col. Sheridan was invited to come
and assist IN giving impetus to the
local posts drive for new members,
which has been very successful. Col.
Sheridan spoke for about an hour
and half and those present state
the entire Legion organization, ideals,
plans for civic betterment and every
effort in which the organization is
interested was explained in careful
detail and to the clear understand
ing of everyone. The Colonels ad-
dress was said to be very able one.
AS a result nine new members were
secured at the meeting and were
sworn in by Col. Sheridan.
Following that phase of the pro-
gram a dandy" lunch was served
civ eioi udSuie GilJUyeu- everyone
present, it is said, did "K. P" duty
and the lunch was the result. Follow
ing the lunch the time up to mid
night was happily spent fighting over
former battles on the fields of France
and recounting experiences dear to
the heart of every veteran. 1t was
getting together of buddies and
was thoroughly enjoyed.
One question discussed was the
possible fostering, by the local or
ganization, of junior baseball team
in Libby. This is something that is
being done all over the nation, faith
cred by the Legion and other or
ganizations, the idea being to arouse
more interest in the grand old ma
tional game among the younger gen.
Grafton. For the past three years
champion ball teams, chosen by elm
ination from the various districts
Of the nation have met in the East
and fought for the national cham
pionship. 1t was not definitely de-
cided whether or not to sponsor a
team here.

the district as "Kootenai Falls

nowhere in his journals or note
books does David Thompson make
any reference to building by that
name.
The trading post which is referred
to was the building erected by Finan
Mcdonald in the autumn of 1903,
and the site or location of which has
given rise to many conjectures and
surmisings in the minds of many who
have become interested in Thomp-
sons life work.
Before we proceed to place be-
fore the readers our own conclusions
on the matter, it will be helpful to
keep before us what has been already
written on the subject. The first part
of this paper will then deal with
the opinions of several eminent stu
dents Of David Thompson's travels
and work.
The first place must unquestion-
ably be given to the opinion Of Mr..
I. G. Elliot, of Walla Walla, Wash
ington, who for years has made q
study Of the traveller and his routes,
and, who admittedly is the leading
authority on Thompson in the West.
In his admirable monograph, First
