Loyal Friend Of Unions

Albert Angstman, former Associ-
ate Justice of the Supreme Court
and who vas endorsed by the Silver
Bow Trades and Labor Council sew
eral weeks ago-in fact he was en-
dorsed by nearly all labor unions in
the state of Montana, farm organiza-
tons, railroad unions, and other lib
eral and progressive organizations
spoke to the Silver Bow Trades and
Labor Council on Tuesday evening.
He cited many cases in which he
was in disagreement with the major
ity members of the court, including
his opponent in the coming election,
wherein he stood uncompromisingly
for the rights of labor and the people
against special privileges sought by
corporate interests. 1t was his stand
in these cases that won for him the
reputation throughout the state as
being the watch dog of the rights of
labor in the supreme court. Judge
Angstman is confident that the pro-
gressive groups throughout the state
are practically unanimous in their
support of him and in their desire
to have him returned to the Sup
RENE Court.
People should bear in mind the
Importance of the Supreme Court to
their welfare. 1t is very vital that
the labor unions have a liberal Judge

the Works Progress Administration
in which he said that he had written
to Senator Murray asking his help
in having Butte reclassified. If it is
possible to have Butte placed in the

Swiss Cheese

In the early days, there were no
large Swiss cheese factories in Wis

pounds of cheese. This industry be-
gan by the Swiss housewives making a
small cheese about the size of sa1-
Ger which were traded for necessities at
the country store. Some cheese weighing
as high as 200 pounds each are now
made. From this small start years
ago, the Industry has grown to the
extent that Wisconsin is by far the
largest producer Of Swiss cheese in

Armistead, who was an important fig
ure in the colonial history of Virginia.
In 1915 he was high sheriff of Clou-
cester county, member of the house
Of Burgesses, 1856, and in 1857 was
appointed of member of the Colonial
council.
After the accession of William and
Mary to the throne of England, John
Armstead, Isaac Allerton and Rich
ard Lee, three distinguished coun-
cilors, were dismissed from Office for
their refusal to take oath of allegiance
to the new sovereigns. The stanch
loyalty of Armistead to the cause Of
the colonists and his capacity for
leadership brought about his appoint
ment as lieutenant colonel of Glou-
cester county, Virginia, forces in the
Revolution.
John Armistead was the head Of =
large family and there are numerous
descendants in Southern states.

The Romance of
Your Name
By
RUBY HASKINS ELLIS
A Chapline?

THIS name had its origin in the
L highly priced flag of st. Martins,
which was the standard of France for
more than 600 years. 1t was made Of
one-half of the saints blue mantle
which remained to cover him after
dividing with the freezing beggar at
the gate of Amiens. The story goes
that this half Of the cloak never
showed any signs of decay during the
succeeding centuries, even the moths
of the monastery being much too re-
spectful to attack so sacred a relic.
1t was kept in "chappelle," place
for prayer, and It's guardian was a
chaplain" from which comes the
name Of Chapline.
In England the Chaplines were dis
tinguished and traced their lineage to
Sir Francis Chapline, Knight Alderman
of London, in the time of Charles ii.
Their coat of arms was granted in
1893.
Isaac Chapline was one of the first
of the family to come to America. He
had been a member of the kings coun-
ell and an ensign in the royal navy.
