Trail Riders Will
Tour Wilderness
in Treasure State

"Trail Riders of the Wilderness"
this summer will explore one of the
outstanding primitive areas of Montana
according to officials of the American
Forestry association of Washington,
D. c., which each year organizes wilder
ness expeditions in cooperation with
the United States forest service and
the Natinoal park service.
Parties of from Is to 25 men and
women, accompanied by foresters, nat
uralists, geologists, medical OFFICERS,
guides, packers, "Wranglers," and cooks,
using from 60 to 80 horses, make the
trips, and this state has one of the
four northwest areas to be explored.
These include the Sawtooth noun
tain region around Sun valley in Idaho,
which became famous last winter when
opened by the Union Pacific as Ameri-
cas- premier ski resort; the Fllathead-
Sun river wilderness of Montana, the
Wind river range in Wyoming and the
Olympic mountains of Washington.
The Montana expedition will start
from Missoula on July 3, and the cara
van of riders will penetrate into the
land where the Blackfeet Indians held
their ceremonial sun dance in years
gone by. In this Flathead-Sun river
Wilderness of peaks and valleys ablaze
with rare wild flowers, where the con-
tinental divide rises in bulky SUBMITS,
the riders will remain until July Is.

ROOSeVeltS
Aboard Ship

A cable from Shanghai has
been received by members of the
family at their oyster Bay Estate
to the effect that Mrs. Theo-
dore Roosevelt anC her son
Quentin are safely aboard the
President Jefferson on their way
to Manila.
With all eyes turned toward
turbulent Shanghai WaShingo-
mans, particularly, are inter
eSted because of their close
connection with members of the
Foreign Service and Army, Navy
and Marine circles.
Mrs. Roosevelt is the wife OF
Colonel Roosevelt and daughter
in-law of the late President.
Whether Mrs. Roosevelt and her
son plan to continue their trip
as planned or will board an
other ship in Manila is not
known. Mrs. Roosevelt will
surely be at home in Manila, for
she was a resident there a num-
Der of years while Colonel Roose-
welt served as governor general
Of the Philippines.

this year at the head of the
class. and this fall plans-as is
the Roosevelt tradition-to enter

and later to England, where he

lectures at London, Cambridge
and Edinburgh on the subject

CAPTAIN and Mrs. Alfred
" Pesley of the U. S. M. C. are
two very nice additions to this
town, with Mrs. Pesley, prettily
pink and white as to skin and
golden as to hair, and Captain
Pesley, very tanned and very
twinkle as to eyes. It seems,
or so the Captain tells us, that
but for sad mistake and an if
ritated City Editor, he might
now be an enterpriSing news
scribe.
The sad mistake con.
cerned q real scoop about an i'm
pending but small riot, planned
in a portion of the small town
in Illinois where Captain Pesley
was born. The riot plans which
had secretly reached the ears Of
a prominent minister in this
town, was in turn poured into
the ears of Pesley who was then
very, very young and collecting
church paragraphs for his paper.
Immediately, Pesley put this
hot news in his church column
and inadvertently buried it
under, and with, items Of the
Ladies Sewing Circle and a
scheduled strawberry festival.
When his own morning paper
was beaten on this riot news by
a rival evening paper, and his
own editor dug into Pesley's col
umn and unearthed the very
same news-Pesley was fired.
And-the Marine Corps gained,
a few years later, a much wiser
but totally diSilluSioned young
man!

Then what do you mean by say

There's nothing organically wrong
with her Even her nervous system,
I'd say, was good. Oh, she's high

Why did I come here instead of

The doctor was speechless for

N>& do you understand, DR..

| finished
Il understand why you would want
to pay your fathers debts-but this
seems rather special case. You
say Mr. Bradley offered to cancel
the debt. OF course, you couldn't
allow that. But why didn't you tell
Hartley? He would want YOU to
have your childhood home. He could
have made you a present of it, it
seems to me-"
Il know that. But I want to do
this all myself. When 1 have paid
Duke Bradley the last cent father
owed him, Ill marry, bit not be-
fore"
DR.. Beard sighed.
L won't try to dissuade you" he
said. "A doctor as old as am knows
something of a patients character
as we'll as of his heart and lungs,
J and l know from this interview you
are young woman of determination
So all 1 will say is that I think you
nave TOO much integrity for your
own good, at times"
Il must be the Judge of that" she
said. And you do know I'm not SICK
don't you?"
Absolutely. I'm not going to say
one word about plenty of sleep or
good, wholesome food or any of those
other things you think we doctors al
ways talk about"
And you'll tell Hartley I'm all
right? Make him stop worrying. Tell
him he can 60 on about that i'm
portant business deal he's neglecting?"
Il am going to him right now and
report you're in perfect health. He'll
be happy man when l tell him my
diagnosis. He should be proud of
