FLA Members
At State Camp

Winslow Devereaux, Eugene
Kipp and Bob Harris, Chapter
advisor of the local FLA, have
returned from a trip to the State
FLA camp on Cromwell Island
on Flathead Lake. Steve Bar
Gus and Kenneth Goss, who had
planned to make the trip, were
unable to because of the press of
wool hauling AID haying.
Cromwell Island is a beautiful
wooded spot situated about a
half mile off shore from Dayton,
Just across a narrow channel
from famous Wild Horse Island.
Ernest and Thane White, own
ers of the island, have given the
FLA of Montana free use of the
entire island and an actual title
to a wonderful five-acre shore
line site, which will be devel-
oped into the State FLA camp.
1t is not expected that this
camp will supercede the State
College campus at Bozeman as
the meeting place for state con-
ventions of the FLA camp. Rath-
er, it is planned to develop the
island as a rest and recreation
camp for the various Chapters
in the state and use it in any
way that best suits their needs.
This sort of camp is particular
ly needed by groups from the
treeless dry land areas of the
state. 1t is also expected to pro-
vide an excellent meeting place
for FLA advisors, state officers,
advisory groups of laymen and
the like.
Several years will be required
to fully set up this camp. 1t
will eventually have mess
hall and lodge, cabins, foored
tents, swimming pier, caretakers
cabin and other improvements.
DR.. Frank Harrington, head of
the Dept. of Horticulture of the
State College, met with the boys
and will lay out complete, land
scaping plan for the site, de-
signed to meet the needs of the
camp without disturbing the nat
ural beauty of the setting.
Dean Cooley and Mr.. Brink of
the State Health Department
were also on the island and ad-
vised as to immediate sanitary
arrangements. They will also
present a long range plan for de-
velopment of waterfront, water
and sewage facilities,

visor of Vocational Agricultural

velopment of the camp as are al
so a committee of advisors, who
include H. E. Robinson of Kalis-
pell, R. w. Harris of Browning,
Ralph Bond of Poison and Dan

The 100 boys attending this
first camp received great bene-
fit from several sessions under
the leadership of DR.. Richard C.

Rutgers University. They were
entertained with boat rides by
Ernie White and with ice cream
as compliments of the Kalispell

Music Assn, has an enviable mus
ical history. With total of forty
eight Metropolitan Opera perform
ances, in New York and on tour, to
her credit for the past four seasons,
she has sung eleven different leading
soprano roles and is now rehearsing
several others for the coming Metro
politan season. She was chosen by
the distinguished conductor, Bruno
Walter, for extremely difficult roles
in two important Met revivals -
Oscar in "The Masked Ball. and
Marzelline in Beethoven's only opera
"Fidelio.' Sir Thomas Beecham, too,
included Miss Greer in the cast of a
notable revival when he chose her
for the role of Nannetta in Verdi's
"Falstaff."
Miss Greer has also rolled up an
impressive total of recent operate
appearances outside the Metropoli-
tan, among Them thirty-seven per-
formances as Musetta, in 'La b.
heme," with Charles L. Wagner's
travelling opera company, and eight
Canadian appearances in Toronto and
Montreal. In the latter city, Miss
Greer's initial appearances were
made with Sir Thomas Beecham,
who selected her for two perform
ances as Cherubino, in "The Mar
riage of Figaro at the 1913 Mon
treal Festivals
A winner Of the 1912 Metropolitan
Opera Additions of the Air, Miss
Greer offers an extraordinarily i'm
pressive example of the completely
"made-in-America" operate career.
Though only Is when she made her
debut with the Met as one of the
youngest prima-donnas in its history,
she nevertheless brought with her
a record of stellar past performances
and a sheaf of enthusiastic press
notices which many an older artist
might we'll envy. And her actual
debut performances the coquette
Musetta in "La Boheme"-brought
high praise from hard-boiled New
York critics.

Schneider Iashes
Out At Labor Bosses
Speaker At Chamber OF Com
merce Banquet Blames Labor
Leaders And Bad Labor Laws
For Most OF Country's Ills.

Speaking before some two hun
bred members and their guests, at
the 9th annual dinner meeting of
the Hagerstown Chamber of Com
merce, held at Franklin Court Aud
itorium on Tuesday night, William R.
Schneider, of st. Louis, Mo-, noted
economist, laid the blame for the
economic chaos into which he claims
the nation is drifting, squarely at
the feet of the leaders of organized
labor and a labor reminded govern
ment which has enacted into law,
labor legislation that favors the
minority group of organized labor,
while Furnishing the larger group Of
unorganized workers, as well as
those with fixed incomes.
The speaker was introduced by
Herman l.. Mills, president of the
chamber, who, in his Introductory
remarks, pleaded with his audience
to write their representatives in
both the State and Federal govern
ments and urge upon them the ne
cessity of cutting down government
expenditures.
Mr.. Schneider, during the course
of his address, reminded his audi
ence that an economy based on
ever increasing wageS-plus a cor
responding increase in prices-was
basically unsound, for the simple rea-
son that when the relatively small
percentage of workers who got the
ever increasing wages-the organic
ed labor-group had purchased all
the high-priced goods they needed,
then the bottom would fall out of the
market, since the rest of the nations
workers could not afford to buy
them And when this happened, the
speaker added, industry would be
slowed down and the overpaid
union workers would be out of jobs.
Add to this, the union-slanted
labor laws, such as the Labor Re
lations Act, placed on the statute
books during recent years, and you
have, according to Mr.. Schneider,
situation that will inevitably lead
to depression of the worst kind.
The real solution of our nations
ills, Mr.. Schneider believes, is the
immediate repeal of all laws that
grant special privileges to any one
class; the return to the old-fashion-
ed economy of supply and demand;
and to President Cleveland's theory
that "the people should support the
government, instead of expecting
the government to support the
people"
Guests at the head table were:
The Hon. Jos. D. Mish, Mayor Rich,
ard H. Sweeney, I. Keller Shank,
chairman of the Board of County
Commissioners; John M. Baer, vice
president of the Chamber of Com
merce; ]. V. Jamison III, president
of the Hagerstown Manufacturers
Bureau; Ford J. Bryan, president of
the Hagerstown Retailers Bureau;
and Harry F. Vollmer, president of
the Hagerstown Junior Chamber
of Commerce.

sponsible for the meeting are: Max
