NATURAL GAS IS
LECTURE SUBJECT
ENGINEERING STUDENTS AT THE
STATE COLLEGE GET PRAC-
TICAL KNOWLEDGE
MONTANA STATE COLLEGE,

+, Two of a series of lectures dealing
with the location, transportation, for
nation and distribution of natural gas
for the purpose of giving Montana
State college engineering students a
practical knowledge of n of Mon
tana's greatest industries were given
the week of November Is. DR.. Gail
Francis Moulton. petroleum geologist,
gave the first lecture and H. M. Parm-
alec, chief engineer of the Phoenix
Utility company gave the second.
Both speakers are leaders in the To-
cation and drilling of gas wells and the
laying of pipe lines in the development
program of the Montana Power COM
pany. 1t was through the cooperation
of the Montana Power company that
the lectures we're made possible.
DR.. Moulton discussed the principles
of geology underlying the accumula-
ton of gas in commercial quantities.
DR.. Moulton is an authority on geologic
structures in the Rocky mountain re-
gions and in his lecture, illustrated
with charts the geologic formations in
Montana's natural gas fields.
Mr.. Parmalee explained In detail how
the gigantic task of constructing the
226-mile pipe line system for bringing
natural gas from producing fields to the
cities and towns in southern and GEN.
trail Montana was accomplished.

FERGUS WILL BE
FEED DISTRICT
UTILIZATION OF WATER RE-
SOURCES WILL MAKE AREA
IDEAL STOCK REGION

Fergus county is destined to be a
large feed, seed and livestock area
according to the progress that rapidly
is being made in the storage and util-
ization of its water resources, as re-
vealed by information received by
the agricultural department Of the
Milwaukee railroad.
w. P. Jones, county agent, and Frank
Hogeland, county surveyor, have work
ed out plans for Is projects this year,
many OF which have been constructed
and were in use this past season. They
varied from small pumping projects
along the Missouri which irrigated from
Is to 100 acres of alfalfa hay to small
storage reservoirs scattered generally
over the north and east portion Of the
country. A permanent and dependable
feed supply is the greatest problem that
faces the livestock industry, and the
utilization Of the natural unlimited
resources of c~orraling these flood waters
has just begun, according to James
Stafford of Winifred, who constructed
the project last year, and who has been
identified with many progressive move
ments in that territory.
Both Mr.. Jones and Mr.. Hogeland
point out that many of these indivi-
dual projects are not expensive. 1t is
important. however, to have a well
laid out plan in order to prevent wash
outs on peak floods. In addition, a
fresno, pillow, horse and some work are
the chief requirements. 1t has been
completely demonstrated this year that
full use of these possibilities will solve
the feed problem, saving Fergus coun-
ty hundreds of thousands of dollars
on dry years; that it will also increase
materially the revenue received from
many of the quality seed crops.
Messrs. Jones and Hogeland, who
are working in cooperation on this
practical type of water utilization, say
they will take care of all requests COM
ing their way in order filed. They re-
port that over one hundred inquiries
have already been received.

PLAN LONG
STAY In BUTTE
BAD NEWS STARTLES SPEAKEASY
OPERATORS INTO STRENGTH
ENING BARRICADES

Butte's boOtleggers, who for the past
several weeks maintained an air of
skeptical indifference to the intermit-
tent raids by federal agents, were
startled out of their lethargy recent
ly with the announcement that the
prohibition forces would quarter at
the Mining City for the winter.
The bad news caused a couple of
ultra conservative speakeasies to close
down, while others prepared to keep
sharper lookout for federal agents.
One went SO far as to call in car
penters to construct a barricade of
two by fours, set end on end, between
the barroom proper and the entrance.
An ingenious system of locks will not
permit the inside door to be opened
until the outside boor is barred, and
then only after careful scrutiny by a
dOOrman.
Carl Jackson, Pacific northwest adj
miniStrntOr, frankly admits he never
saw q town where barrooms we're SO
openly conducted as in Butte. AS a
matter of fact, most of them are Ii
censed as soft drink" parlors by the
city.
Crowbars were welded by federal
agents in tearing their way through a
barricade where an operator allegedly
was working after the establishment
had been padlocked on order of U. S.
District Judge Charles N. Pray.
On top of the announcement that
the agents were entrenched for the
winter, came word from Trenton, N. j.,
that Federal Judge George M. Bour-
quin, famous exponent of Montana JUS
tice, was enroute from New Jersey
where he vas sent to relieve the crowd
ed court calendar.
Bourquin's swift justice to prohibi-
ton offenders was largely responsible
for the high showing of convictions in
this state during the last fiscal year.
The department Of justice reported SO
percent of the more than $500 prohi-
bition cases resulted in convictions.
Bourquin's rugged use of prohibition
offenders filled the principal jails of
New Jersey and angered the Mercer
County Bar association of that state
until it adopted a resolution stating
that in the future it's members desired
federal judges ITO be of the kind that
could hand out justice in keeping with
the civilization Of New Jersey citizens
Aside from the constant threat of be-
ing raided, Butte bootleggers face fl
nancial losses through the undercovcr
methods they have had to adopt to
keep from being raided. Most of their
customers do not like the idea of going
through a lot of hocus pocus to be adj
mitted to q barroom.

awkwardly and tenderness smothered
her for that calloused hand that was
SO young.
He looked happy and shining and

STUDENT WRITES
ABOUT SCHOOLS
FORMER ST. CHARLES GRADUATE
WRITES MANUSCRIPT ON HIS
TORY OF EDUCATION

Two articles by former students Of
Mount st. Charles college are in the
October bulletin of the graduate
school of the Catholic University of
America. The Rev. DIR. Emmett Riley,
vice president OF the college, pub
lished his dissertation on Develop
ment of the Montana State Educa-
tiOnal System" from 1864 to 1880 as
part of the requirement for the Phi.
ID. degree, which was given to him
last June.
James Reginald DeGroat of Shelby
was granted a masters degree and pub
liShed his thesis on "A Critical Study
of the Fundamental Tenets of Mon
ISM" 1t was in the department of
philosophy.
DR.. Riley's dissertation is dedicated
to the Rt. Rev. George J. Finnigan,
bishop of Helena, under whose patron
age a number Of Montana priests and
laymen are pursuing graduate work
at Catholic university. The book ac-
knowledges indebtedness, among others,
to David Hilger of the Montana state
historical library, to his assistant, Mrs.
Ann Mcdonald, and to Miss Elizabeth
Ireland. state superintendent of public
instruction.
In nine chapters DR.. Riley deals
with provisions Of the organic act in
the beginning of education in the ter
ritory of Montana, the Montana school
of law Of 1872, the common school sys-
ten in the territory from 1872 to 1889,
the state constitution and early stat
utOry provisions in relation to the school
system from 1889 to 1895, the revised
school law Of 1895 and from 1895 to
1907, growth of the school system dur
ing the period from 1907 to 1917 and
the public school system in Montana
from 1917 to 1880. A copy of the book
has been placed in the historical IL
brary.
Mr.. DeGroat's thesis was in the de-
partment of philosophy. He attended
Mount st. Charles high school and
college from 1922 to 1923, when he won
a Basselin scholarship to Catholic uni
versity. He earned the A. B. degree
from that shcool in 1880 and the A. M.
degree in 1881. Mr.. DeGroat has COM

MADE TO
GAME COMMISSION
MILES CITY AND FORSYTH PETI-
TION THAT DEPUTY GAME
WARDEN BE RETAINED

Following receipt of information at
Miles City after the meeting of the
Montana state fish and game COM
mission at Helena that Capt. j. II.
Chartrand, deputy game warden for
this district, had been laid off along
with six other deputies over the state,
a movement was inaugurated to as
certain the reason and to protest
temporary retirement of that official.
Three kilograms were forwarded to
Thomas N. Marlowe, chairman of the
board to Missoula, his home, asking for
reconsideration of the action taken in
the case of Mr.. Chartrand.
The American Legion has filed a
protest. The sportsmen's association of
Forsyth telegraphed a protest in the
interest Of game protection in this re-
gion. The Custer rod and gun club
took an active interest in the matter.
1t is pointed out that in so large a
territory as is contained in southeast.
ern Montana it is imperative that a
deputy game warden be kept on the
job throughout the year and particu-
larry at this season and through the
winter. when there are SO many appli-
cations for permits to trap beavers
and other details to be considered.
1t is the hope of the sportsmen Of
the Custer county region, according to
their statements, that the board will
reconsider action taken in the case of
Mr.. Chartrand.
Commissioners w A. Brown of Great
and E. A. Wilson of Livingston
opposed reduction of deputy wardens.
They contended that with only q dep
uties in the state and upwards of 100
persons on fish and game payrolls,
there we're other departments that
should be curtailed prior to any cut in
field forces. They were overruled by
Commissioners j.. L. Kelly, Anaconda,
w. K. Moore, Billings. and Mr.. Mar
lowe.

SCHOOL REQUIRES
GOOD ENGLISH
NEW COURSE AT MONTANA IN
STITUTION ATTRACTS ATTEN-
TION OF EDUCATORS

A mining college of limited enroll
ment but with high ideals, appears to
be pointing the way toward innova-
tons in the teaching of English, par
ticularly to engineering students.
English 81, Proficiency in English"
is the new curse at Montana School
OF Mines which is attaining a measure
of fame among educators.
Already three well known institutions
OF higher learning-University of Chi
cago, University of Idaho and Pomona
college-have inquired about the course
AT Idaho and Pomona copies of an edi-
torial written in the Engineering and
Mining Journal, complimenting the
school Of mines on it's step in demand
ing good English from upper classmen
have been distributed to all faculty
members.
The course was put into effect for
the first time this semester, and the
results have been highly satisfactory
from an educational standpoint. For
the seniors, however, who bear the
brunt of its force, it has caused some
worry.
English 81 is required for graduation
but gives no credit. 1t is not based on
formal classroom instruction, but upon
all written work, including that done in
scientific and technical departments
All reports and examinations are "a
luated, not only for thorough grasp OF
subject matter, but also for sorganiza-
ton, diction, effective expression and
correct usage of English. Work OF
doubtful quality is submitted to the
English department for criticism and
conference. Instructors already report
a marked improvement in the English
employed in technical reports.
Those who do not show suitable
proficiency in the use of the English
language, of the most essential
qualifications of a successful engineer,
will be required to gain such profile
iency before being permitted to grad
uate," the catalog states.
A year of freshman general English
and a year of technical writing in the
Junior year are also required courses
in the Montana School of Mines cur
ricula.

bowel trouble

Constipation may very easily become
chronic after forty. And any continued
constipation at that time of life may
bring attacks of piles and host of other
unpleasant disorders.
Watch your bowels at any age. Guard
them with particular care after forty.
Whenever they need any help, remember
a doctor should know what is best for
them.
"Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin" is a
doctors prescription for the boWels. Tested
by AZ years practice. it has been found
thoroughly effective in relieving consti-
patton and its ills for men, women and
children of all ages. 1t has proven
perfectly safe ever for babies. Made
from fresh laxative herbs, pure pepsin
and other harmless ingredients, it cannot
grippe; will not sicken you or weaken you;
can be used without harm as often as
your breath is bad, or when your tongue
is coated; whenever a headachy, bilious,
gassy condition warns Of constipation.
