1lIcIc WAS COlOr1ul picture laSC
Friday evening at the big bend of the
Missouri river IL miles southwest Of
Garrison, site Of the proposed main
control dam Of the great Missouri riv-
er diversion project. It was as though
the Book Of Time in North Dakota
was being opened at a new. fresh
page. It was as though the same book
closed on the pioneer development era.
Few Of those who saw this picture will
ever forget It. for. it was not without
its impressive drama. Over the river,
down to the entrance of Snake creek,
which is the first diversion unit by
which water from the Missouri will
be turned into a course which will
take it both to the Gulf Of Mexico
and Hudson's bay. droned an airplane,
piloted by prairie pioneer who uses
it to hunt coyotes. In its cockpit was

~ known. West Point man, student
there in the days when General Hugh

most personable and kindly man was
this engineer looking through binocu-
lars to see for himself the terrain up
on which mere man will undertake.
probably within q short time, one OF
the greatest engineering projects IN
American history.
They Felt Big Moment
It was a pleasant evening. On the
Mercer county side Of the river were
gathered fully $50 automobiles. They
had come to the foothills below the
old Fort Stevenson military reserva-
ton over greasy gurnbo roads. because
they felt this was big moment.
carrying for them both new hope and
the high romance that IS all too Of
ten never visualized in the march OF
modern progress. The river valley is
more than two miles wide at this
point. The air was balmy. It was
good to be there as frightening sha-
dows mantled the trees and under
growth in that definite purple haze
that is in all the west along the river
courses and rugged country from the
painted desert in Arizona to the long
reaches Of the Upper Missouri where
the pine forests come down to stand
BY the banks Of a strong. clear.
rugged, fascinating river eternally fed
by mountain SHOWS.
On the Mclean county side OF the
river was another big crowd. Pioneer
folks these. Some Of them can still
remember the silvery notes OF the
bugles at Old Fort Stevenson, when II
was garrisoned by regular army SOL
diers In the land Of the MandanS ana
the Arikaras. They watched the
soaring plane, where the keen, clean
cut, resourceful technician trained the
binoculars on the country round
about. What did the man see In the
glass? Did he see picture Of the
rehabilitation Of two great states,
change in agricultural economy that
went far beyond the grass roots? Did
he see a great city at Williston, an
other at Bismarck, the towns destined
to be the metropolitan areas Of the
North Dakota of 2033, 100 years from
now? Did he see an end Of fighting
against drouth and limited rainfall?
was this the passing Of an era?
The Last Of the West
Out Of the brush jumped two deer.
