that there would be no hard feelings
on the part OF the unsuccessful sutton.
However. there was no curb on the
manner of counting her-and that's
where fate stepped In. Bill continu-

took her to theatcrs and the opera.
Jack, on the other hand, was decided

his bank book behind him in a chair,

Betty, being human and feminine,

Sand Of Sahara Desert
Carried Far by Winds

II IL now we'll recognized that the
falls Of colored rain and also of dry
dust that occur at rather frequent in
teryals In southern and central Eu-
rope are due, in most cases, to wind
borne material blown up from the
Sahara desert.
Several cases In which enormous
quantities Of solid matter have been
carried great distances by the winds
have formed the subject of efahorntr
Investigations on the part OF meteoro-
logsts. Thus during the three days,
March to 10, 1901, heavy dust storms
occurred In the deserts of southern
Algeria. and the sequel Of these storms

time, sucked up the dust. which was
carried northward by the winds at
high attitudes.
Deposits from this dust cloud oc-
Cured over an area extending as far
MS $500 miles from the place of origin.
Reports collected from hundreds OF OBJ
servers indicated that 100000 tons OF
dust fell over the continent OF Europe,
and one-third OF this fell north OF the
Alps. As much more Is believed to
have fallen over the Mediterranean,
while on the African coast itself the
deposit Is supposed to have amounted

Says National
Organization Backs
Callers Campaign
(By United Press

Now that the primaries are over and
the crop harvest has started, minor
nominees are taking a respite from the
arduous campaigns to follow while the
senatorial candidates are preparing to
battle.
To be sure, most of the preparations
thus far, have been in the republican
camp. This, no doubt, is due partly
to the keen interest in the race between
Justice Albert j. Galen and Senator
Thomas ]. Walsh which has been dis
played in Eastern circles, and the ac-
tive interest in the campaign taken by
G. o. P. leaders.
The eyes of the nation rested this
week on Glacier national park where
Justice Galen met with Senator Site
wer Oregon vice chairman of the re-
publican senatorial campaign commit
tee, who fastened to Montana after a
conference last week with President
Hoover.
If the people of Montana have not
awakened to the fact the rest of the
United States regards the forthcoming
campaign as the fiercest battle in the
political arena for seasons and ex-
poets a close race between the veteran
senator and Justice Galen

TO ESTABLISH RADIO BROAD
CASTING STATIONS FOR PLANES

BUTTE up Art Johnson, assis-
tant airway traffic supervisor of the
United States department of commerce,
was expected to arrive in Butte this
week to make survey preparatory to
the erection of a federal aeronautical
radio broadcasting station.
IF | succeed in getting proper site,
we plan to start construction of the
station in time to have the roof and
walls up before winter" Johnson said.
The station would be installed pri-
marily to aid the National Parks Air
way, Inc, air mail planes, although it
would be of service to other ships
equipped with radio also.
Johnson said the station would i'll
clude two complete transmitting and
receiving sets, one operating at $50
watts l. c. W., and the other for voice
transmission.
The former would keep in communi-
cation with land stations throughout the
west for collection of data on conditions
on airways, positions of planes, and
similar information, while the latter
would keep in contact with planes en-
route between points.
Cost of constructing the station
Johnson said, would approximate s25,-
900, and four operators, working "a
hours. would be employed

Dogs Wouldn't Come to Decoy

BUTTE-(U.P.)- Butte has another
pair of city dog-catchers-the fourth
pair this year.
The last pair were men of originality
Their idea was to plant decoy dog
in cage and go to sleep on the truck
seat until the dogs of the neighborhood
should come into the cage to make
the acquaintance of the decoy, then
close the cage
Ducks is ducks, but dogs are some
thing else again" one remarked to the
other as they handed in their resigna-
tons.
