Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Boom! Peter Rabbit jumped as
if he had been shot. 1t was all so
sudden and unexpected that Peter
jumped before he had time to think.
He felt foolish and he looked it. He
had been scared when there was
nothing to be afraid of. "Ha, ha, ha,
hal" Uttered Jenny Wren. What
are you jumping for. Peter Rabbit?
That was only Boomer the Night
hawk"
II know that just as we'll as YOU
do, Jenny Wren" retorted Peter
rather Grossly. You know being sud-
denly startled is apt to make people
feel cross. I don't know why this is
so, but so it is. IF I had seen him
anywhere about he wouldn't have
made me jump" said Peter. Il
don't see what he is out now for
anyway. 1t isn't even dusk yet and
l thought he was night bird"
so he is retorted Jenny Wren.
Anyway, he is bird of the even
ing and that amounts to the same
thing. But just because he likes
the evening best isn't any reason
why he shouldn't come out in the
daylight, is it?'
"No-ooo," replied Peter rather
slowly, Il don't suppose it is"
"Of course it isn't replied Jenny
Wren. Il see Boomer in the late
afternoon almost every day. On
cloudy days I often see him early
in the afternoon. He's queer fellow,
is Boomer. Such mouth as he
has l suppose it is handy to have
big mouth if one must catch all
ones food in the air. but it certainly
isn't pretty when it is wide open"
Il never saw mouth yet that
was pretty when it was wide open"
retorted Peter. who still was feeling
a little put out. Tive never noticed
that Boomer has particularly big
mouth"
We'll, he has, whether you've
noticed it or not" retorted Jenny
Wren sharply. Hes got a little bit
of a bill, but a great big mouth. I
don't see what folks call him a
Hawk for, because he isn't a Hawk
at all. He is no more of Hawk
than I am, and thank goodness I'm
not even related to the Hawk
family"
Il believe you told me the other
day that Boomer is related to Sooty
the Chimney Swift" said Peter.
Jenny nodded vigorously. 80 I
did, Peter" she replied. I'm glad
YOU have such a good memory.
Boomer and Sooty are sort of second
cousins. There is Boomer now. way
up in the sky. do wish he'd dive
and scare some one else"
Peter tipped his head way back.
High up in the blue, blue sky was
his old friend Boomer the Night
hawk. looking at that distance much
like an overgroWn swallow. While
Peter watched, Boomer half closed
his wings and shot down so fast
that Peter actually held his breath.
1t looked as if Boomer surely would
dash himself to pieces. Just before
he reached the earth he suddenly
opened up those wings and turned
upward. Then Peter heard the
booming sound again. 1t was made
by the wind rushing through the
larger feathers of Boomers wings.

Fewer and simpler reports to be

Governor Ford's state reorganization
commission, following a hearing at
which Secretary r. P. Jackson of the

that duplicating reports to various

vestors who had confidence in Charlie
kmmons judgment, have received to
date more than $1,125,000 for their
share and still continue to hold valuable
interests in the Kevin-Sunburst oil and
gas field.
Ex-Governor John E. Erickson was
the original president of this success
full oil concern, which never did any
developing work itself, but was content
to sit tight and let others take the
drilling risk, while this company
thrived on its returns from royalty in
terests. After John E. Erickson was
ELECTED to the governorship of our State,
Charlie Emmons succeeded him as the
president of the oil company which
IImmons so successfully started on its
history-rnaking career, with which most
everyone in Montana is familiar by now.
Invests Also in Mining
Charlie Emmons remained at the
helm of the Kalispell-Kevin Oil Co.
until his passing short time ago. The
record of his achievement is certainly
one to be proud Of but Charlie was
born with the western spirit He be-
came interested in the Zonolite Mining
Co. at Libby and was vice president
and one of its directors until the com
pany was taken over by the Universal
Vermiculite Co., of Detroit and Chi
cago. He was also interested in the
Cyanide Gold Mining Co., located near
Boomers Ferry Idaho, also mining
property in British Columbia Of late
Charlie had been prospecting for gas.
hoping to find supply to take care of
the demand of Lewistown. Charlie had
mapped several structures considered
favorable for oil in this north country
but to date none have been tested One
of these structures he mapped is the
Hagan structure, southwest from the
now thriving town of Cut Bank This
structure is on the Blackfeet Indian
reservation.
Charlie Emmons was one of those
pioneers who helped to take the rough
edges off from this Treasure State
He was of that restless type, like our
earlier pioneers who figured in this
States early development-one who
could not retire at his advanced age,
but must carry on with the develop
ment of Montana's natural resources,
which seem to have no limit.
Invest $50O-Receive $4,000
Each of the original Kalispell-Kevin
$500 unit holders-13 in number
sponsored by Charles L. Emmons, have
received more than $4,000 for each
$500 invested and from royalties only,
and they still continue to pay. Charlie
Emmons with the true western spirit
had put most of his profits from his
oil interests, etc, back into mining and
oil enterprises in this State and else
where Since the passing of this loyal
pioneer citizen. Montana has missed
one of her greatest pioneer oil men. He

home in Montana for 90 years and in
the Flathead country for around SO
years.
