honest life, he is released on conditional
license and turned over to a central
association for supervision. He must
report regularly to this association and
convince it that he is leading an honest
and industrious life, in order TO retain
his freedom. II he fails to do this, his
license is revoked and he must serve the
remainder of his sentence.
Through this preventive detention the
dangerous criminal is removed from So
ciety for longer than his actual sem
tence provides, and his mode of life is
under constant surveillance after his
release. The professional safe-breaker,
for instance, is much less likely to do
"just one more job" after his release If
~ doing SO he risks 10-year preventive
detention sentence on top of the years
OF penal servitude that particular rob-
berry entails.

Exchanging Land
With Government

In the preceding issue of the West
ern News the United States land of
flee at Great Falls began the legal
publication of the notice of an ex-
change of lands between the United
States and the Anaconda Copper Min
ing Company. Although only five Sec
.tions of the lands described in this
legal notice are located in Lincoln
county, the law requires that the COM
plete advertisement appear in this
county.
This exchange of lands is being
made under the general exchange act
which provides that all exchanges
must be to the benefit of the United
States and that the government re-
ceive IN return for its lands not less
than equal value of privately owned
lands. The five sections in Lincoln
county which the government is to re-
ceive are timber lands carrying de-
sirable young growth which naturally
blocks in with and is part of a larger
area of young growth on national for
est land which the government is pro-
tecting for future timber production.
The lands being. transferred to the
Anaconda Copper Mining Company in
exchange are in the vicinity Of Ana
conda in the Deerlodge national for
est within the region which is subject
to smelter fume damage. On these
lands the government is reserving the
mineral rights so that prospecting
may continue as before.

The Unaliyi Camp Fire Group
started on an over night hike four
miles out near Pipe Creek early
Saturday morning. The rain of the
evening before had settled the dust
and made hiking pleasant. Mrs. Dick
en- and Mr.. Sleizer offered their cars
to take the girls ponchos and cook
ing utensils, ETC., out.
The first thing on the program was
cutting pine boughs, making beds, and
getting camp in order. Cooking COM
mittees were appointed and while din
ner was cooking the guardian MRS.
Burgett) led the girls in setting up
exercises. Part Of the rest period was
spent in reading stories out loud.
Anna and Elizabeth Stuhlreiter
brought their horse and made pen
next to their bed room. The bed must
have looked tempting to the horse as
before night he broke through the
partition and got in the girls bed.
The girls took turns riding the horse.
Next the girls donned their bathing
suits for swim. After supper Mr.,
Burgett built camp fire around
which the girls sat in circle, told
stories and sang songs.
Everyone enjoyed sleeping under
the stars.
