1.-THE LAND OF THE SHINING
MOUNTAINS is OPEN TO
THE WHITE MAN

SPOKANE--Before the coming Of
the white man, the Blackfeet Indians
knew THE Land of the Shining Noun
tains.n This rugged mountainland with
its high, narrow passes afforded them
protection from their enemies, but ire
.uuent and fierce encounters took place
at the highest pass beyond which no
Flathead or kootenai could pass if the
Blackfeet were to keep their territory
inviolate.
This lofty gap in the mountain for
tress, now known as Logan Pass will
be open to theNtravel of the white man
for the first time July Is.
The pass is the final link in the CO.
ing-to-th e-Sun highway, said to have
the most spectacular scenery OF any
motor road in America. 1t crosses the
continental divide in Glacier Park at
an elevation of $685. feet, to connect
St. Marys Lake with Lake Macdonald
On the lower levels it follows the
shores of the two lakes, some OF the
highest waterfalls, and commands un-
usual views of the famous Garden Wall,
Heavens Peak, Mount Oberlin and a
score of other rugged snowclad peaks.
The building of this marvellous high
way has cost two-and-one-half million
dollars and the upper portions OF it
were hewn from perpendicular rock
walls.
Because of its great importance to
the Inland Empire and the northwest,
in that it opens for the first time a
direct route through Glacier Park for
tourist travel from the east, the Pub
licity-tourist bureau of the Spokane
Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring a
delegation to the big celebration that
will feature not only hundreds OF the
Blackfeet who long ago followed the
rocky trail, but also prominent Off
Gals and dignitaries, federal and from
all parts of the state of Montana.

Campers Are Careless Again.

Indications that the national forests
in Montana and northern Idaho are be-
coming dangerously dry, and that
stricter observance of measures to pre-
vent further man caused fires already
are necessary, is revealed by the ten
day forest fire report issued recently
by the regional office of the forest
service at Mlssoula.
Man-starting ten Of the fires which
occurred during the period ending on
June 20-was again the worst Of
fender, and Of all fires set by man the
smoker and camper, responsible tor
seven, were the most careless, accord
ing to the report
Two more man-caused fires started
from debris burning, one more was OF
miscellaneous origin, and lighting was
responsible, the figures show, for seven,
making a total Of IL for the ten-day
period. Twenty-one acres were burned
in the national forests and los acres
outside, but adjacent to the Beaver
head forest
Greater care with fire-especially
with lighted matches and tobacco and
with camp fires-evidently is neces-
sary," said Evan W.. Kelley, regional
forester And" he added, 'the for
est service joins with the state for
ester and other protective agencies in
asking such cooperation as will make
unnecessary, this summer, closure OF
the national forests to entrance except
by special permit.
IF" Kelley continued, campers
smokers, and travellers will be more
careful. it may be unnecessary to en-
force this added restriction. If not, then
the permit system, with consequent in
conveniences and delays to people who
wish to visit the forests, must be put
into effect"
Beginning July /, the rule now ir
force is that a shovel, axe and bucket
per car or pack train must be carried
before entering the national forests
in region one, according to forest Of
ficials

Mr.. Neils says there is no doubt
that there is a. noticeable improve
ment in business as reflected in Chi
cage and he said crops along the Great
Northern in Montana looked to be in
good condition In eastern North Da-
kota and western Minnesota small

possible, and that will prove to be
one Of the most difficult things to set

from August to February / and then
again from February l to August l.
The quota was not entirely worked
out In detail while l. was in Chicago

be limited to between so and 36 hours

The established regulations provide
that a project must be provided in at

rnent is urging all possible speed in
procedure.

the fact that Montana will receive st.
S9, 7l8 of federal aid money. This state
viii also receive its part of the gen.
