Want Closed
Season On Elk

That the open season on deer III
this district ought to remain the
same as at present was the decision
of the members of the Libby Rod
and Gun club in their meeting Mon
day night.
The sportsmen also concluded to
ask for closed season on elk. The
recommendation regarding deer
and elk seasons have been transmit
ted to the state fish and game COM
mission. The state board had asked
for local sportsmens desire in those
respects.
A closed season on elk was re-
quested because the hunting of last
fall had scattered the elk badly and
evidently thinned out the number to
a great degree.
There was a goodly attendance at
the meeting. about 25 interested men
being present Everyone seemed to
take a lively interest in the pro-
ceedings and nearly everyone had
something to say regarding various
matters that were discussed The
principal business of the meeting,
however. was to decide what should
be recommended as to deer and elk
seasons. The open deer season is
now from October Is to Novem-
Der Is.
The chair was authorized to name
a committee of five to nominate
and present names at the next meet
ing for officers of the club for the
ensuing year. President Earl Swift
ger appointed Nj. D. Rowland, e. M.
Boyes, Melvin Paulson, A NJ Rich
ard and Paul Church on the com
mittee.
while the meeting Monday night
was one of the best attended we
have had for some time" said Pres
ident SWitxer, yet it would have
been very gratifying II more had
felt enough interest In the proceed
ings to come out. We who are en-
gagged in conserving and developing
the great game resources of this
district have long noticed the abb
sence of certain men who, by all
means, should be keenly interested
in the work of the Rod and Gun
club | refer to the business men Of
the community VINO gain no small
volume of business each year from
hunters and fishermen. They are
hardware and equipment dealers
service stations and garages. These
establishments profit each year from
the sale of ammunition and fishing
equipment, out door clothing, from
gas and oil sales and car repairs
They ought to have vital interes
in game conservation, If they dt
have any such interest they do no
manifest it by taking any part il
the meetings of the club. | know
all of the officers of the club Woul'
welcome their cooperation and ad
vice, and most of us feel they ar
neglecting duty to the community
Every citizen should have an inter
est in conserving fish and game
These men should-have not only tina
interest but they also have the ad
ditional incentive of financial prof
it to be made out of wise game
management. I wonder if they
couldn't be induced to help swell
the attendance at future meeting:
of the club"

Bobby BigeloW. accompanied by
Miss Ratekin, then played three vio-
lin solos, Ava Maria, "Puppet
Show, and the main melody from
the second movement of Carl Ep-
pert's Timber
Mrs. Walter Neils then rendered
three solos, Midsummer" After"
and Sometimes
AT this point Chairman Joughin
introduced DR. Housman who spoke
concerning international affairs.
That is, international affairs, inso-
far as to impress upon his audience
the value of the liberties which
were granted to us in the preamble
of our constitution in comparison to
those overestimated liberties of die
tatorships. Especially must our
young people realize the value of
liberty to ourselves and our poster
ity in order that they may not be
pitifully fooled by the glory of die !.
tators and their relationships.
DR.. Housman said, Let us say that
great men like Emerson, Voltaire
and Calico did not say the fine
words they were said to have said.
Nevertheless, as men, they lived a
part of an ideal life. That is, they
fought in mans great battle against
courseness, stupidity and ignorance.
Their lives and their greatness was
behind their words as great lives
were behind the constitution when
it was written. And that true, COM
plete, deep, practical ideal must
stay behind the American way OF
life ii we are to continue securing
the blessings of liberty to ourselves
and our posterity. II any of US elm
mates truth from practical living to-
day, the truth that does secure-tie
doWn--for our children the bless
ings of liberty, then all we will
have left will be high sounding
words. And with high sounding
words we must not forget the die
tators of the world have all but
stopped the heart of civilization
today
He continued, Here in Montana
in America, is one of the last places
in civilization where the heart oil
democracy still beats. In this place
today and tomorrow, let us put our
hand on our heart and hold it there
to-'secure the blessing of liberty
to ourselves and our posterity :"
DR.. Housman's address was ex-
ceptionally we'll received by the
audience, who afterWard compli-
mented him on his clear thought
and straightforward ideas upon q
subject that is pertinent to every
American citizen.
Following the address more com
munity singing was participated ir
which was followed by refreshment!
served by the Junior Women's Club
Tuesday morning DR. Housmar
gave a very interesting talk to tht
students of the high school in which
he told of the difference in the
manner in which the youngsters O
America and tire dictator rountrie,
live.
DR. Housman, who is a picture
enthusiast, had with him a motion
picture camera with. which he tool
shots of Kootenai Falls and othei
natural beauties of this vicinity. DR.
Housman hopes to return this sum
mer with his family for a vacation
in and around Libby.

IN response to the latest Govern

upward l to more than points in
today's early dealings.
For the first time in a month the
ticker tape fell minute behind floor
