In his charge to the graduates,
Dr.. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president
of the university, cited few lines
he had chanced across in an 1918
issue of the Edinburgh Magazine:
"Yet he that is but able to express
No sense at all In several Ian
guages,
Will pass far learneder than he
that's known
To speak the strongest reason in
his own"
These lines refer to the igno-
rance OF the learned as found in
scholarship" DR.. Marvin said.
Learning must not be confused
with education. Often men who
have not had the privilege of college
education and many times those
who have, make this mistake.

Outing Sunday
Bio Horn Chamber
Is Sponsoring
Picnic at Springs

A large delegation from Big
Horn county, as well as many
boosters from a number of other
counties of Southeastern Mon
tana and from parts of South
Dakota will attend a picnic at
Crazy Head springs, near Lame
Deer Sunday, Sept. 19, accord
ing to. the Big Horn County
Chamber of Commerce, spon-
sor of the affair.
The picnic is being held for
the purpose of creating more
interest in securing improve
mentS on a section of Highway
8, as a shorter route from points
east to Yellowstone National
Park and the heart of Montana.
Plans for the program are
not entirely complete but it is
expected that the Hardin high
school band will be on hand to
furnish music and a public ad-
dress system will be available
for speaking. The Chamber is
arranging accommodations for
at least 400 people.
Crazy Head springs, a former
CCC camp and the site Of All
club camps this summer is said
to be a beautiful picnic spot
and is located about eight miles
east of Lame Deer. Those at
tending are asked to bring a
basket lunch, and coffee will be
furnished by the Chamber of
Commerce.
The Chamber has already been
advised by Meal L. Fagg, chair
man of the highway committee
of the Billings Commercial club,
that he will be present with a
delegation from Billings.
Besides Hardin and Billings
other Montana towns expected
to be represented include. Liv-
ingston, Columbus, Bozeman,
Gardiner, Alzada, Lodge Grass,
Birney, Wyola. Crow Agency,
Hysham, Big Timber, ColStrip,
Red Lodge, Park City, Laurel,
BroaduS, Ashland, Lame Deer,
and others.
Those attending from west
of Hardin will be at the Cham
Der of Commerce in Hardin not
later than II a. m. Sunday and
will journey to the picnic
grounds where they will meet
boosters from the east.
Those in charge urged all bus
mess men and their families
and others interested to attend
the affair.
Highway 8 passes through two
Indian reservations, Custer Ma
tional forest, Custer Battlefield
and other points of historical
interest, and would be an ideal
route for traffic from the east
to Yellowstone National park
and the vacation land of Mon
tana, as we'll as serving as a
trade route, it is believed.
