Whitehall deer known by that designa-
ion. Hamilton had been SEM out from
ne old Grow agency on Rosebud creek
en- the upper Saltwater to tell an out
ut of 80 or 40 Grows who were camped
there to come in to the agency To
draw rations and annuities.
The Crows had been east as neal
The Sioux territory as they dared TO

away from the Sioux. At the same
time, they had set fire to the prairie
behind to keep the buffalo from drift
ing back and also to leave poor pick
ings for the Sioux. -Four or five lead
ers of the bands OF Grows met Uncle
Billy" and they sat on their horses,
talking in the sign language. Hamilton
knew most Of the Indians and they
crowded around him to get his mes
sage, Young says. He looked as red
as any of the Indians that he con-
versed with.
Indians Given Surprise
There was a little hay meadow near
the Young's Point place that was a
favorite camping ground for the Crow
Indians in going and coming from the
reservation. The chiefs quite fire.
quently stopped at the house and it
was regarded as good policy to feed
them on their visits. Once a chief,
either Old Grow or Two Bellies, and
several squaws stopped at the house
where Mrs. Young was cooking over
a fireplace with a swinging crane.
There was also a bake oven TO be
placed in the fireplace. The heat from
the fire was quite noticeable in work.
ing around it and Mrs. Young, find
ing the wearing of a set of false teeth
uncomfortable in the heat, took them
out of her mouth. The Indians sitting
about made grunts of astonishment
and seemed uneasy at this feat.

a pioneer physician at Billings who had
a glass eye, had stopped at the hotel

FOREST SERVICE
HAS HORSE FARM
REMOUNT DEPOT AND TRAINING
STATION is ESTABLISHED
NEAR MISSOULA
Saddle and Pack Animals to Supply
Rangers and Fire Fighting Crews Are
To Be Broken To Tasks and Reserve
Supply Kept on Hand.

Negotiations have just been COM
pleted for the lease of ground to be
used as a remOCnt depot and train
ing station for pack and saddle stock,
both for replacement and for aug
menting the number of animals the
forest service will have available for
fires and other emergencies through
out the northern region, according
to announcement from the Office of
Regional Forester Evan w. Kelley,
at MissOula.
A reserve of from 10 to $50 pack
mules and saddle horses will be main
tanned at this station at all times, sub
ject to demand from any of the ma
tional forests where they are needed
When the number is reduced below
100 through a drain from any cause,
immediate steps will be taken to build
up again by hire or purchase. Break
ing and training Of this stock will be
going on constantly, as will also the
training of men as packers for the
type Of packing the forest service has
to do.
Each national forest maintains its
own pack and saddle animals in num-
bers varying up to 240 head, but it
frequently happens in cases of fire that
the number is inadequate and action
on fires is delayed until additional
pack stock can be located, hired and
shipped to the points where needed
Often, too, the stock thus huriedly
obtained is not well broken or hard
ened to the work and are therefore less
efficient on the job. The stock at the
remount station will be kept hardened
through steady work in breaking and
in providing work for the training OF
the packers who will be sent out with
the stock.
The land secured for the new re-
mount depot is the Scheffer ranch or
Nine Mile, about 80 miles northwest
of MiSSOula.

for his later success in life was his
defeat when a young man for the Of
fee of state treasurer of Montana. He
was q candidate on the republican
ticket. 1t was after that that he en-
gagged in mining, and had bestowed
upon him the Sobriquet Boulder" by
reason of his operations in the Boulder
mining district.
Long a National Figure
He had long been a national figure
in the world of finance and industry.
He wa a director of the federal re-
serve bank of New York from the time
of its organization until December,
1919; a director of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance company and the holder
of many other positions. He was q re-
publican presidential elector in 1912.
q delegate to the republican national
conventions of 1915 and 1920; trustee
Of the Phillips Exeter academy, honor
airy president Of the Roosevelt Memoir
ial association, envoy extraordinary OF
the United States to the first centenni-
al of the proclamation of the indie
pendence of Peru In July, 1921, and a
member of the advisory committee to
the American delegation in conference
on the limitation of armament in 1921.
During the time that Colonel Thomp-
son was in Russia as head OF the Red
Cross expedition he became greatly in
terested in the bolshevik movement,
then new to the world. He eSpOuSed
1t to the extent Of giving the Russian
government 81 ,00O, 900.
From Pioneer Stock
The qualities which made Colonel
Thompson successful in his enterprises
and generous with the fortune he
achieved may well be attributed to the
circumstances of his birth Of pioneer
parents and the environment Of his
boyhood. His father built many of the
first permanent houses in Virginia City,
including the one, still standing, from
the roof tree of which the Vigilantes
hanged Boone Helm, Haze Lyon n
"ClubfoOt" George Lane, three Of the
most desperate members Of the Plum
mer gang Of road agents. In 1855 this
carpenter pioneer built l3 mackinaW
boats on the shores Of the Yellowstone
river where Livingston now stands, and
pilOted a party of miners down the
Missouri river through the hostile
Sioux Indian country, as far as Yank-
ton, Dakota. He charged his passengers
$25 each. Upon his return to Montana
In 1866 he built buildings in Helena on
contracts a~ggregating $3.50 and then
engaged permanently in the lumber
business. In Virginia City he. married
Anna M. Boyce, daughter OF Major
Boyce, another pioneer of Montana.
William Boyce Thompson was their
first child.
Colonel Thompson is survived by his
wife, Gertrude Hickman Thompson,
and his daughter, Margaret Thomp-
son Schulze and q brother, j. Edward
Thompson OF Phoenix, Ariz. Colonel
Thompson's death wa due to pneu-
monia. For the last four years he had
been confined to q wheel chair as the
result Of partial paralysis.

the cached gold seem q practical en-
terpriSe and for a number OF years
before the family had gathered SUI
flcient funds to make the venture a
certain group of cabins on the Sun
river was their ultimate goal.
Mr.. Young's father, Alonzo Young,
had been the captain of n OF the
first volunteer companies from Wis
conSin in the Civil war. About 1869,
the family moved to Grafton, near
Nauvoo, Ill, while the elder Mr.. Young
was On the river as the captain of a
lower river boat, running from st.
Louis to New Orleans.
At that time the first bridge was just
being put across the Mississippi river
at st. Louis by Eads. Mr.. Young re-
calls seeing the unloading there of
buffalo hides and furs from the boats
from the upper Missouri and also the
big stacks Of bacon, piled up to be
loaded on the steamers headed for the
upper country. Knowing the way in
which it wa handled, he said the
bacon which came from the various
stores and trading places in Montana
in the early days never looked good to
him.
Move to Colorado First
About 1873, they went to Boulder
City, Colo, where they remained a
year or two. They then moved to
Deer Lodge, Mont, and from there
Mrs. Young and her son QUILTED for
the trip to Sun river with two pack
horses and two saddle horses. Two
men whom they had seen about Deer
Lodge followed them, keeping out of
sight, although the Youngs found occa-
Sional traces Of their being in the
neighbOrhoOd. The YoungS were about
two weeks in locating the remains Of
an old cabin neal the Sun river.
According to MI. Young, they went
to digging in the earth floor. just
what information his mother had to
guide them there he does not know, but
they at last unearthed four sacks of
rawhide which were filled with gold
dust and nuggets. C~oncealing them
in the blankets in M of the packs,
they started to return. Upon reaching
the river they found that a rain had
raised the water, but believing they
had no time to lose, they started across
the stream with Mrs. Young in the
lead, then the pack horses and the
sol bringing up the rear.
Treasure Horse Shot
Just as they got In the middle of the
stream someone began shooting from
a nearby place Of concealment and
the pack horse that bore the treasure
was shot in the leg and carried down
the stream. Young saw the men run
ming away and started firing at them
as they disappeared. He and his
mother got to the shore but their bed
ding was lost and they had to go seven

\ PROBLEM

T had young woman in my ofIice," the doctor said, "and I as- sure you she grieved mo deeply and left me terribly saddencd.
 she came when 1 wasn't in and waited for mo moro than an hour. She refused to tell my secretary what she wanted, beyond saying in a fearful voice that she would wait until l returned.
 T was a bit mystified by her per- sistence and secrecy. But two min- utcs after I commenced talking to her I could both understand and sympathize with her plight.
 Her mother was sick, suffering from cancer. She had received the best and most modern of scientific treatment. She did not complain. But she had read of a new cure for can- cer. Someone many thousands of miles away was said 10 have a new cure. She wanted me to tell her whether she ought to move her mother to that city and perhaps save her life with the new treat mcnt.
 What could ] tell her" The bare scientific facts were simple to state, but certainly too weak to overcome that mixture of hope and crcdulity that was cnsendercd within her by what she had read.
 Tn her desperation no odds against her appeared too great, and l knew ell too well that when she left mo she would still be pcrplcNcd and doubtful, desperately hoping against hope.
 Tn vain I tried to explain to her that medical discoveries were un- like discoveries in other fields; that before their validity can be cstab- lished they must be tested and re- tested by others than tho discov- crer, and that only after they have been so tested can we truly cvalu- ate their claims.

Spoiled Children By Alice Judson Peale

It is commonly believed that children arc spoiled because they arc too much loved and given il to-"
 It seems to mo, however. that no child can be too much loved, and tEat the danger of excessive indul- gcnce is less real than that of the wrong sort of indulgence.
 My own belief is that children are more oftca spoiled by a form Of parental selfishness that goes by the name of love, and by an in dulgence that is merely name for parental laziness and inconsis- toncy.
 For instance, we may shower them with gifts. not because we love them but because we enjoy the personal response which these gifts bring forth. We love to mak c our children feel that they owe their greatest pleasures to us.
 The really loving mother gives wisely and tempcrate1y--shc never thus unconsciously bribcs her child to adore har.

 The next story; Peter Finds Gu
New Britain herald., 1930-04-29

A little bramble-tangle was grow ing right near where Peter had found the Columbine. He could sit in that bramble-tangle and be safe and at the same time look at and admire the holding blossoms. So Peter made himself very comfort- able there. From time to time ne dozed off. Between each little nap he watched the Columbinc blos- soms as the Merry Little Freezes swayed them this way and that.
 It was along in the middle of the morning that Peter heard voices. They were laughing and shouting and Peter knew by the sound that they were in the lower part of the Old Pasture. At first he paid little attention to them. Then curiosity led him to 50 see what they were doing. He didn't have to go far, fot by this time they were halfway up to where he hld been sitting.
 Peeping out from beneath some bramblcs, Peter saw two boys and a girl. In the hands of all three were flowers and Peter saw thu. they were looking for more flowers. He heard the little girl give q shriek of delight when she found Il patch of exquisite arbutus. From where Peter sat he could watch her. He saw her tear it up. root and all. Afterwards she broke off some Of the roots. Peter wanted to stamp ongrily at her. He knew it was thoughtlessness on her part, but ha also knew that in time there woull be no arbutus left if every ono wcrA so thoughtless. Later he saw one of the boys do the same thing.
 Some of the flowers in the hands of these children were sadly wilted. All their beauty was gone. Peter knew just how lovely they had been growing and he couldn't understand a. all why these children should want those sickly looking blossoms, which no lonser were beautiful. But they did want them and they want cd more, for hey were searching here. there and everywhere.
 Inn Peter remembered the Co., umbine blossoms up on the rocky ridge. Those children would be surl to find them and, if they found them, they would take not only the blossoms, but the whole plants ds well. At least. that is what Peter feared. He must do somethine about 1t. Yes. sir, he must do some thing about it and he must do ,t quickly. But what could he do? H. couldn't tell those little folk that they shouldn't pick the flowers. Ot course not. Then Peter remembered how often ne had been chased bN beEs.
