A Vote for Aleck.

CAN'T you hear them already?
They'll argue up and down and
across the land. and the older they
are the more loudly they'll argue, be-
cause old heroes die hard in the public
mind, no matter how often you hear
them say that the public is tickle.
Tickle, eh? Just try to tell your dad
that Carl Hubbell is on a par with
Christy Mathewson and see what he
says! But, above all things, be pre-
pared to duck.
Meanwhile, I'd like to toss in a vote
for fellow-and I don't care how
soon they count it. His name is fresh
in my mind at this time because I
have been reading about him in the
newspapers lately and he hasn't had,
any the best of the breaks. His name
Is Grover Cleveland Alexander-and
he was one Of the greatest pitchers 7
ever saw.
The name dates him-Grover Cleve-
land Alexander. ct was little breath

Woodrow Wilson Stromberg, Aleck

stride along about 1915. From there

point as the gun doomed the end Of
the game.
The role Of hero quickly shifted to
Gerald Burns, lanky pot shot artist,
in the extra period. Lee Lusby sent
Eastern into the lead briefly by drib-
bling the length of the floor to score,
but Burns retaliated with the tying
points on q side shot and then, with
40 seconds of play remaining, un-
corked the winning basket from near
mid-court.
George Dewitt, looming as threat

standing for Eastern in the matter of

Meanwhile, scholastic supporters

will be unveiled. Inconsistency reigned
again yesterday as Western whipped

Just how the jumbled problem will

EXCEPT for the Western Wilson

the only true-to-form series action by

able Of taking care of both kinds
of food at the same time. Nearly
any kind of meat is digestible. The
prejudice, for instance, against
pork, on the grounds Of digestibil-
ity, has been secuted by Ralph
Hoagland, biochemist of the bureau
Of animal industry of the depart
ment of agriculture.
Meats DigestibIe
Meats, he says, are among the
most digestible of human food
products. Pork compares favor
ably with other meats in this quail
ity. In comparative tests pork was
digested in the stomach slightly
more rapidly than turkey, in the
same time as chicken, and slightly
more slowly than beef or lamb.
Meats are esteemed in some
places for reducing purposes. One
of the most eminent nutritional au-
thorities in the United States, DR..
E. v. McCollum of Johns Hopkins
university, includes lean beef. lean
ham, hamburger steak, and even
a bit of bacon in his list Of rec
concentrations for reducing menus.
Some pseudo-scientific diet ex-
perts claim to be able to dissolve
and expei gallstones by correct
food and without operation. An
other promises patients a cure for
tuberculosis within 48 hours by
diet. The cruelest Of all is the man
who assures patients that he can
get rid Of cancer by removing i'm
purities through fasting. AS
matter of fact, fasting is likely to
increase the amount Of poisons in
the body. because when the body
does not get food it burns up its
own fatty tissue and the result is
acidosis. No one has ever been
cured by too prolonged fasting,
since this impairs vitality and
every tissue cell must have food tor
keep up it's own vitality.
I have expressed the above opin-
ions many times, but it so happens
that these are not my own, but are
distracted from an article by A. c.

Man Who Dropped Out of

in Contact With Relatives

Thank you and God bless you," a
few days ago wrote an aged man in the
Warm Springs Sanitarium to a man in
Maryland, the husband of the woman
who had once been his wife and the
stepfather of his only son.
Watching him write the letter was
John Fisher Jr., who had the thrill of
a story book finish in finding the faith
er he feared was dead. He and the
father he had not seen since 1911
spent most of the day together at Warm
Springs. The aged man, John Fisher
ST., wrote to the Maryland man to
thank him for taking care of the boy
almost from infancy and for encourag-
ing him in the search for his father.
The last chapter in the story was
written when the two started back to
Maryland. Sanitarium officials were
willing to release the aged man into
the custody Of his 3O-year-old son.
Both young Fishers wife and his moth
er-formerly the wife of the man at
Warm Springs-were anxious to have
the pair return. The young wife tele-
graphed her husband asking him to
bring his father back to live with them
His mother wrote to both the son and

BUREAU OF MINES AND GEOLOGY
STUDIES DEPOSITS IN
FOUR COUNTIES
EXISTENCE HAS BEEN
KNOWN MANY E A
Accurate Information as to Actual
Quantity and Quality Has Been
Lacking; Bulletin Ready for Dis
tributiOn March Is. =

For many years the existence Of
immense quantities of chrOmite in
Montana has been known, but ac-
curate information as to the actual
quantity and quality has been Lack
ing. A detailed study Of the Mon
tana deposits is contained in a
report completed by Paul A. Scha-
fer. geologist for the state bureau
of mines and geology. This memoir,
"Chromite Deposits of Montana"
is No. Is in the bureaus series Of
reports on natural resources and
geology of Montana and will be
ready for distribution about March
Is. Requests for this memoir should
be addressed to the state bureau Of
mines and geology at Butte and
should be accompanied by Is cents
to cover cost of mailing.
Chromium, the product Of chromite
ore, is familiar to most people as a
constituent of stainless steel and is
of the newer modern metals which
is also used in electroplating, house
hold, plumbing and automobile fix
lures and in the manufacture of chem
icals and yellow and green paint
pigments. In its crude state, chromite
is used in the manufacture of re-
fractory brick for high temperature
furnace lining.
N1elllOlT lNO. 10 ueSCIlUcS GIlc OCCUR
ence of chromite deposits in Still
water, Sweet Grass. Carbon and Madi-
son counties. According to the geolo-
gist, the deposit in Saltwater and
Sweet Grass counties is the most i'm
portant and contains from 10 to 80
million tons of chromite bearing ma
terial, which could be concentrated
to a product with an estimated maxi
mum grade Of As percent chronic OK
ide.
The deposit, an apparently contin-
uous chromite band of constant width,
q miles long, is said to be of mag
matte origin, characterized by remark
able uniformity in grade and width.
The depth to which the deposit could
be mined would depend on difficulties
encountered in mining rather than on
the decrease in the grade of ore.
Carbon county deposits are thought
to be of similar origin but have under
gone greater changes through geolog-
ical processes. Madison county deposits
are nor easily accessible than deposits
in Saltwater, Sweet Grass and Carbon
counties, but little work has been done
proving their economic worth.
