CLUBS n CeylT!
GAINING N NUMBERS
Four Al Clubs Have Recently
Been Re-organixed in Big Horn
Co. For Another Year.

Four All clubs in Big Horn
county have recently re-organtzed
for another year. The first of
these IS a Ali lamb feeds club
located in the st. Xavier COM
munity known as the st. Xavier
Lamb club, with H. K. Snively as
club leader and Paul Schaller, as
sistant leader. Seven boys are
members of this club, each having
10 lambs apiece on full and fat
tening feed for a period Of 100
days or more. The members OF the
club raised an acre OF corn during
the past year, the feed from which
they are now feeding their lambs:
The lambs weigh between 60 and
So pounds and were purchased
from the Antler Land company.
Matt Tschirgi Of Wyola is Of
fering a prize Of three lambs to
the boy in this club who will make
the best record in gain of weight
on his lot of 10 lambs. and two
lambs to the boy making the
second best gain. Officers of this
club are: Junior Johnson, presi-
dent; Kenneth Snively, vice. presi-
dent. and Adolph Strobbe, Secre-
tary-treasurer. Other members of
the club are Rudolph Strobbe,
James Snively, Dwayne Schaller
and Manuel Lackman.
The other clubs organized in
the county are the two All
Breakfast clubs at Wyola under
the leadership of Mrs. K. Redman.
One of these clubs has nine men,
beers, of which Betty Kolstad is
secretary and the other club has
fourteen members with Louise
Ripley, secretary. These girls have
all had two years work in the
All Clothing projects and have
scored high in county, district and
state contests.
The Owl Creek Sewing club is
the fourth All club which has re-
ported its organization for the
coming year. This club has just
finished its years work under the
leadership of Mrs. E. s. Miles.
On Saturday. November 9Th, a
national and state 4-H club pro-
gram will be broadcast over KGHL
at Billings, beginning at 1890 a.
m. Many of the All clubs of the
county are planning on holding
reorganization meetings at that
time and to listen in to the pro-
gram at the same time.

HGyden-Duffy Bill
PNSSnQe ErDected

With Congress assembling
here Monday, one Of the early
ills on the calendar that will
be taken up" by the House
is Of great interest to stamp
collectors.
This is the Hayden-Duffy bill
which has been passed by the
Senate to permit the printing
Of black and white illustrations
of United States and foreign
postage stamps for philatenc
purposes.
The bill was written by Sem
ators Carl Hayden, Of Arizona,
and F. Ryan Duffy, Of Wiscon-
sin.
According to the latest infor.
nation at hand, the bill will
meet with no opposition, q n d
therefore needs no amendment.
Unless protest is filed with Rep
resentative James M. Mead, Of
New York, chairman of the
House Committee on Post Office
and Post Roads, at the last min
ute, the bill will be called up
and passed.

The photographs are by no

the authors work and the para

are truly supplementary to each
other.
It is the story Of the present

and photographs that are more

RenOux Smith
Files COMPLAINT

Renoux J. Smith sends the
editor Of The Times a letter
which seems to call for q cor
rection. It reads:
"After all the complaints l
am obliged to shoulder will you
please give me an explanation
to the following which appeared
in The Times, by William New
man: Headlines: Fritz Kreis-
Ter. stokowski, Wildly Cheered."
stokowski did not conduct. It
was Eugene Ormandy. Further
down in the criticism he says:
"Mr. Ormandy, understanding
lust now for Stokowski, is no
stranger" I wish to state that
Mr.. Ormandy is not unde- study
ing for Stokowski, he is cocoon
ductor of the Philadelphia Or
chestra."
Answering Mr.. Smiths second
complaint first. let me suggest
that he is slow to catch the
critical implication. Many may
agree with me that Mr.. Or
mandy had been understanding
stokowski for many years before
he was made co-conductor of the
Philadelphia Symphony; and
speaking of errors, is Mr.. Smith
sure that this is Ormaudy'S
title? When invited to Philadel-
phia he was announced by the
management as the conductor
in chief with powers to hire and
fire.
AS for his first complaint,
Mr.. Smith evidently read the
article in question with Suffi-
cient thoroughness to discover
that nowhere was there a state
ment or an implication to the
effect that Stokowski conducted
this concert. If a headline in
any edition Of The Times issue
for october ~ read as Mr.. Smith
states, the error was corrected
by the time I bought a copy.
If it has been corrected once
there seems to be no point in
correcting it again.
According to publicity re
ceived at the office Stokowski
is to relieve Co-conductor Or
mandy Of all responsibility fol
the concert which the Philadel
phia Symphony is to give ir
Constitution Hall on Novem
ber 80.
Presumably this publicity
comes from the office of Mr.
Smith though the course il
which the Philadelphia Sym
phony appears is sponsored al
far as I can discover by anothel

Illustrated by photographs an
up-to-date picture of the head
hunters of the Amazon.
The volume is a detailed
account of a visit he made to
the upper Amazon far into the
country Of the Jivaro. Opening
with a frank description of the
serious business Of transporta-
tion over the dangerous trails
of Ecuador and familiarizing
the reader with the day-by-day

story of how he found himself
member of a war party.
The amazing and interesting

Of the marriage ceremonies and
the religion Of the natives are
all faithfully set down.
The book makes no pretence

Families"
In this fat volume filled with
details, charts and columns of
figures, Mr.. Lundberg strives
for a revelation of the amazing
hold that the so wealthiest
families of the country have
over the destinies of Americas
millions. Although there are no
earls anj lords, or CO S or
dukes in this democracy, Mr..
Lundberg quickly calls attention
to the dynasties of wealth which
he declares hold a broader con-
troll over the masses than royal
ty ever held in its palmieSt
days.
In his opening paragraph Mr..
Lundberg says:
"The United States is owned
and dominated today by a
hierarchy of 60 of the richest
families, buttressed by no more
than 80 families of lesser
wealth. Outside this plutocratic
circle there are perhaps $50
other families, less defined in
development and in wealth, but
accounting for most of the in
comes of 100000 or more that
do not accrue to members Of
the inner circle"
Mr.. Lundberg's story may not
be a cheerful one for a salaried
man but is certainly an interest
ing one for everyone. He de-
velopes his theme by detailing
the intermarriage of the rich,
the rise of fortunes augmented
and increased year by year and
the significant political alli-
ances which they entail.-F. S.
