Stories

Fishing season opens in four
months, meanwhile Bolton de
lights in the fish stories of old
timer Lou Bigger.
Here is one with local varia-
lions that he was spinning at the
West Glacier cafe, Wednesday
evening.
Lou, with SABBATH look on his
face, tells of Lake Mcdonald in
the years before Glacier Nat
ional park became a park. 1t
seems that some of the local re-
side2ts had picket fences out
into the lake.
In their front yerd lake en-
closures they kept giant trout;
some of them weighed good
70 pounds" added Lou. On Thur
days it was the custom of 10.
cal men to go down to their front
yard fish pens; catch a big
trout; cut out a steak and let
the swimmers 60. "Fish, you
commented Lou, "can re-
place a steak like that in no
time"
Anyway" Lou concluded, all
went well, until the Protestants
opened the gates, and the big
fish swan out into Lake Nc

New Glacier Guide
Ready for I947
VQcQtioner

Ready for the 1947 vacationer
is a new issue, 100000, of the
descriptive and pictured free
guide to Glacier National park,
published by the park service.
This is the first printing of the
Glacier park guide since 1912.
Every car that enters the park
during travel season receives
one of the folders. Just arrived
at park headquarters, Bolton are
10000, while an additional TO-
900 are being sent from Washing
ton all over the United States to
travel agencies, hotels and rail-
roads to give the coming sum-
mer's visitors a better idea Of
Glacier.
Last year 2O1,145 visitors en-
tered Americas alpine wonder
land, and in 1947. Park Supt. ].
w. Emmert expects even a larger
number.
The free folder tells little of
the park history. Meriwether
Lewis of the Lewis and Clark
expedition of 1804-05, saw Chief
mountain and reached a point
40 miles from the present park.
There's something in the pamph-
let about Glaciers geology, for
the area is considered a geolo-
gists museum with giant over
thrust fault of from Is to Is
miles. Other paragraphs concern
bird and animal life, hotel and
cabin Accommodations and high
ways.
Interesting statistics about the
one million acre vacationland,
second largest national park in
the United States, are the pres
ence of more than 1000 different
wild flowers, the more than 200
lakes, the 80 glaciers,
most easily reached of any gla-
ciers in the nation, and the 1000 |
miles of trails. No other nation
al park, adds the folder, has as
many miles of trail.

SnowSweIIsCounty
Unemployed Lists

Heavy snow has reduced EN-
ployment in Flatheaa county un.
til men and women out of work
during this week, will be in ex-
cess of 1900 by tomorrow, re-
ports Gordon Redpath, Montana
Employment service office man
ager.
During the previous week,
1886 persons had been drawing
unemployment benefits, 440 of
these were veterans collecting
$40 a week, and 456 non .veter-
ans getting up to SIS week
OF the 456 non-vete:ans. 157
were persons from o'her states,
many of these former West Coast
shipyard workers.
Though national unemploy
ment figures are swelling to-
ward a predicted fi1e million
figure, Flathead lounty's lack
of work is mostly local II ORR
gin. The valley has nc3 develop
I'd year around industry. Both
numbering and recreational ser
vices, which with agriculture,
are the principal pursuits in the
valley, are essentially seasonal.
With Lincoln county, Flatnead
ranks as Montana's principal
lumber producing district. How
ever, other ccnters process local
lumber into boxes, doors and
sashes providing winter employ
ment in dis INT communities.
Winter use CT the countys re-
irrational facilities has had its
start this year.
The seasonal nature of Flat
head employment is reflected IT
the unemploy me1t roles. In July
only 81 veterans and 81 non
yeterans were collecting comp
ensation. With the coming OF
winter November showed 683
drawing benefits including 351
and by December the
,otal has increased to 1872.
