Low PRICE CABINS
AT NATIONAL PARK

Visitors to Glacier National

eating and sleeping accommo-
dations will find them next sea-

accommodations for the Gla-
cier Park hotel company, Sup
erintendent D. S. Libbey of Ola
cier National park announced
recently.
A new lunchroom at Swift
current, already nearing COM
pletion, and a lunchroom, camp
store, registration building, and
cabins at Roes Creek, on St.
Mary lake, are included in the
development.
At the lunchrooms, breakfasts
will lie available at 3Oc, lun-
ches at 40c and dinners at 6Oc.
Cabin rates will begin at SIPS
for SINCE occupancy and SITS
for double.
These developments will sup
plement the Swiftcurrent house
keeping cabins, which up to
this year were the only &C
commodations less elaborate
than hotels or chalets which
the authorized park operators
have built. Increased automo-
bile travel, however, has brought
an annually larger number of
people who desire accommoda-
tons simpler than hotels and
chalets, and yet more substan-
tial than tent camps.
The Swiftcurrent lunchroom
Is being built as an addition to
the present Swiftcurrent camp
store, near the Many Glacier
campground. It will be of frame
and half-log, 81 by SO feet, with
counter and table service for
as many as 81 persons at one
time.
The Roes Creek cabins will
occupy the new site overlooking
blue st. Mary lake and a pan
Drama Of mountains, including
Divide. Curley Bear and Red
Eagle. Each cabin, instead Of
being grouped with others in a
plaza, will occupy a selected site
among the gnarled, windswept
Douglas frs which will pro-
tect it from the very winds that
have shaped them. Nearby, a
brilliant floral display will
bloom in early summer.

CHICAGO CLUB TAKES
TO THE

The Prairie club Of Chicago
mas taken to the mountains OF
Glacier National park for it,
annual excursion, a two-WeekS
"goat-trail" hike over 125 miles
OF the parks most popular trails
from Lake Mcdonald to Water
ton.
! When the fifteen mixers en-
erge from the wilderness on
Friday, July 26, they will have
covered by foot - with an oc-
casional day in the saddle, Just
for relaxation - the entire
North Circle and most of the
South Circle, the parks two
most ambitious planned trail
trips.
Furthermore, many of the
party will have climbed Catar-
act, Pollock, Piegan, Cloud and
Siyeh peaks, as well as Sperry
glacier and the Garden Wall.
The group started from Logan
Pass on Juy IA, travelling for
the most part on alternate days
and reserving frequent oppor-
tunlties for side trips to dis
tant lakes, mountain peaks, or,
on one occasion, the Canadian
town of Waterton.
The itinerary covered approx
imately one-Seventh of the en-
tire mileage of trails in the
park.

POWER
PLANS PRESENTED

Rural Identification Admin
istrator Harry Slattery has just
made available to the National
Defense council, standard plans
and Specifications for building
electric transmission lines.
These will permit speedy and
efficient construction of power
lines in any part of the country
where national defense may re-
quire them. They are designed
not to meet any spcific local
situation but to be available for
any need, emergency or other
wise, which may confront the
defense council, Mr. Slattery
said.
The plans cover lines of 22,-
600, 80, 900, and $4,000 volts, as
well as standard package" sub
station units. They supplement
existing REA specification for
7,2O0-12,47O volt lines, of which
about 250,0 900 REA financed
miles are in successful opera
ton.
Materials specified in the REA
designated plans are standard
with all manufacturers and can
be obtained with a minimum OF
delay. Quantities are set upon
units of assembly in place,
thus simplifying the contrac-
tors bid, stalking of lines by
the engineer, and inspection
and inventory of completed
lines; and facilitating payment
to the contractor. This accords
with standard REA practice.
In transmitting the plans and
specifications, A d m instr a t o r
| Slattery declared that on the
basis of experienue of REA, line
constitution contractors, and
consulting engineers in building
REA-financed lines in As states,
at a production rate of 500
miles a day extending over
many months, 1--WE are in a po-
sition to extend electrical facil-
tiles at any location not now
served in the United States,
quickly and economically"

HOW o
SHOULD BE FROZEN

Freezer lockers are coming
into more general use by far
mers in all parts of Montana
and a number of factors must
be taken into consideration if
frozen storage of home foods
is to be successful, says Bessie
E. McClelland, extension nutri-
ton specialist at Montana State
college.
While many fruits and veg
etables can be stored successful
ly In freezer lockers, the quail
ity of the product will be in
fluenced by several things, Miss
McClelland pointed out. In the
first place the fruit or vegetable
must be fresh and in prime
condition. Too, certain varieties
are better adapted than others
for freezing.
Another point Miss McClel-
land makes is that the method
of preparation and type of pack
should be chosen to suit the
product and the use to be made
of it. Containers also are i'm
portant. Glass, tin or waxed
containers may be used but they
must be air tight and moisture
proof to give the best protec-
ton to color, flavor and texture
Of the food.
OF utmost Importance is the
temperature of the storage
room. Best results are obtained
when the food is frozen at zero
Farenheit or below and stored
in a clean locker room with an
even temperature OF zero or but
little above. At no time, Miss
McClelland emphasizes, should
the storage temperature be
higher than 10 degrees above
zero Farenheit.
Frozen foods should be kept
frozen until ready for use and
care should be taken that they
do not thaw and freeze again.
Extension home demonstra-
ton agents have detailed in
structions for freezing foods
and a copy of the bbulletin,
preservation of Foods by Fro
zen Storage" is free for the
asking.

Many Attended
Duncan Reunion
More Than 100 Members Of
the Family Group Present.
Interesting Program.

On Sunday, June 23rd the des-
cendants of the late Jane Dun
can Johnson, Silas Creek; Rev.
Thomas Duncan, Beaver Greek
and William Duncan, Helton, met
at the old home place of the late
preacher Tom" for their fourth
family reunion.
Bower Duncan, chairman OF
the reunion committee, a grand
son of preacher TOM, had
charge of the program. * '-52.'s'''
After a hymn and prayer, Rex
ford Campbell a young. minister
ial graduate of Mars Hill college,
and a member of a neighboring
family of the late Thomas Dun
can, gave a most inspiring mes
sage and a summary of the work
done by the late preacher Tom,
as Missionary Baptist minister.
This good man along with Rev.
J. F. Fletcher, may rightfully be
called an early missionary to the
mountain county of Ashe and
Grayson counties. Their work
was hard, and fought bitterly by
anti-missionary folk, but it has
grown and spread, possibly be-
yond others expectations.
Many visitors were present and
recognized by the chairman after
which lunch was spread on q
long table on the lawn.
In the afternoon. Bryan Oil
yer, grandson of the late Jane
Duncan Johnson, gave an inter
esting talk after which much Wis
iting and reminiscing among all
present was enjoyed.
The family planned to meet
again next year at the same place
but ON the third Sunday in Aug
ust in order that other members
of the family may be present

Ashe county in particular.
Flowers and Flowers
Those who have never seen
them, little realize the natural
beauty of the rhododendron, aza-
lea and laurel in Ashe county.
Now that the season for this is
about gone, there are many more
beautiful flowers coming along;
for Ashe lends itself particular
ly we'll to cultivated flowers.
We noticed the other day that
Mrs. J. N. Tulbert's dahlias are
off to a good start, that Mrs. R.
c. Rays delphenium is well
worth stopping to see, that Grant
Bauguess has some of the most
beautiful roses we have ever seen
and that Mrs. Carl GRAPHICAL will
before long have a plot of color
and beauty in her side yard, if
her flowers continue up to their
usual standard. There are many
more beautiful flowers through
out the county which will soon
be at their best.
The Lost Sheep
The lost sheep are figures of
speech to most of us, but on
Monday night they became re-
atty to County Agent c. J. Rich,
and assistant H. D. Quessenber-
ry, who were out collecting them
for Tuesdays shipment. The
sheep had not strayed off but
were lost in a truck. But the
good shepherds Rich and Cues

and the lambs were brought into
the pool and were shipped safe
ly on their way to make appetiz-
ing chops for some table.
