Book By Ernie Pyle
Reviewed At Meeting
OF Club By Mrs. Bliss

A book review by Mrs. S. S
Bliss, a report on roadside beauti-
fication by Mrs. P. A. Johnston
and election of delegates to the
state convention of clubs were
items of entertainment and bust
ness on the agenda of the Laurel
Woman's club at a meeting Mon
day. Mrs. Roy ROseberry was host
ess, assisted by Mrs. l.. d. Serb
ner and Mrs. Leslie Dahl, cohost-
esses.
Mrs. Johnston, chairman of
Identification, reported progress Of
planting on the east side of the
viaduct. Grass has been seeded, to
be followed by the placing Of
shrubbery.
Delegates elected to attend the
state federation meeting next June
in Livingston we're Mrs. H. M. Lar
son and Mrs. G. P. Lindahl, with
Mrs. A. B. Warfield and Mrs. j. F.
Morrison as alternates.
"My Home Country" a book by
the late Ernie Pyle, was cleverly
and entertainingly reviewed by
Mrs. Bliss. Some of the highlights
were his description of his home in
Indiana and his parents; his trip
through Glacier park where he, an
accomplished rider, surprised the
natives with his Craftsmanship; and
his excursion to Bay bridge, Oak
land, Calf, while the bridge was
under construction.
Another incident was his visit to
Four Corners, the point where Col
orado, Utah, Arizona and New
Mexico join. Lying on his back, his
arms and legs extended, he was in
four states at the same time. A
bronze plate marks the four cor
ners. The place is reached by a fine
road, except for the last eight
miles which r really rugged.
He at last, after much effort,
learned to roll a cigarette with one
His tutor was a man who
had lost an arm. Pyle said he
would have rather learned this feat
than to have been president.
The Woman's clubs next meet
ing will be May II at the home of

be installed, and a tea will honor

mand created by re-opening sea-
sonal operations will consume
about all of the jobseekers who
qualify for the jobs offered. La
Dor already on the spot will meet
most of these demands. Special
skills will be transferred from n
place to another according to cir
cumstances, and some shortages
are to be expected in such trades
as carpenter, brick mason, electri-
clan, steel craftsmen, and oper-
ators of heavy duty equipment.
Location of these needs can not be
forecast.
Hungry Horse Hiring Is Slow
Employment on Hungry Horse
dam, Kalispell area, was lis in
late March, engaged in work pre-
liminary to resumption of cement
pouring for the footings and dam
proper. Weather conditions bar the
pouring while freezing tempera-
lures prevail, hence it may be late
in April before extensive increase
in that employment takes place.
The same weather conditions, and
prevalence of snow in the canyon,
precludes resumption of clearing
work on the reservoir area until
late April or early May.
Earlier estimates indicate that
an employment peak of $500 might
be reached by midsummer. The
high point last year was 1900.
There are approximately 5000
workers in the immediate area and
adjoining areas, many of them
available for these job openings as
they develop. More than 700 Of
that number reside in the immedi-
ate vicinity of the dam, awaiting
employment opportunities. Call
backs of those laid off last Deem
Der will precede open orders, it is
understood.
Canyon Ferry Becoming Active
Preliminary operations at the
Canyon Ferry dam near Helena
were employing 100 men at the be-
ginning of the month. Work con-
sisted principally of installation of
an aggregate plant, and clearing of
the stream bed between the Golfer
dams. Excavation down to founda-
ton bedrock will follow as the sea-
son advances.
Total of employment at the dam
is expected to rise gradually dur
ing the month. Ample supply of
labor and skills for the purpose is
reported available in the area.
Projects for clearing the reservoir
site r expected to be under way
in from 80 to 60 days. Outlook for
employment of Immigrant labor
remains negative.
Highway Projects Start in April
Building progress on the state
highway system has been retarded
by generally unfavorable March
weather, to about the same de-
gree that other seasonal recovery
has been curtailed. Out of 40 pro-
jects under contract only twelve
were in active status during March,
employing PIP men. Twenty-three
others had been started and then
Interrupted by seasonal influences;
Ia were new contracts on which no
work had begun.
Bridge work predominated in ac-
with 1913 men on bridge con-
payrolls in March; two
overpasses employed 33 men; five
highway contractors were using Sc
workers.
Maintenance work of the high
way commission used GAL men on
an average during the month, a
of only five from the 636
n February.
Expectation is that most of the
contracts will swing into
action during April and May, and
hat contractor crews by June 1
will number one thousand or more.

During the fore part of last
week, j heard that Florence
Justice was going to have a
birthday, Nov. 18th. ! asked
"Flossie" if she was going to
break down and push the boat
out and bring in some nice
choice cold cuts of ham or some
kind of meat for sandwiches
and have a nice little party. She
said, What! Ham at $1.75 a
pound? / should say not" So i
told her i would settle for a
limburger cheese sandwich on
rye with slice of onion. Well,
on her birthday, that very dear
lady brought in whole loaf OF
rye bread, a large jar of linn
burger cheese and very large
onion. In the vicinity of lines
No. 3-4-5 everyone enjoyed G)
a sinking party, that is with
the exception of Jimmie Matu-
szynski and Frank Mills. The
smell of that cheese was just a
little too much for these men.

Mabel Erb's stomach was a little
weak, too. Good thing it only
happens once a year. BY the
way, Florence passed out candy
to almost everyone in the de-

you people who celebrated their
birthdays on Nov. 18th.
