NeW School

We hope that common sense prevails in the
matter of the new grade school for Columbia Falls.
Making the building possible of course is the
26,400 grant coming from the federal government
and the plan is to erect a 11-room grade school
with large multiple purpose room adjoining the
district high school.
We hear criticism in Columbia Falls that has
some merit to the idea of blocking off the road
between the high school and the old Talbot school
in order to provide space for the new building.
Blocked streets are an inconvenience, and there
should be weighing of all factors here
There apparently is also some sentiment that
the structure should be built the location of
the old Columbus school the far east side of the
town. Here we disagree.
OF the 25,704 square feet in the proposed new
grade school, more than 1000 will be in multiple
purpose room. This will serve for physical educa-
tion, a study hail. auditorium, meetings and for hot
lunches.
1t is excellent idea to provide this fac
llty next TO the district high school which unfortu
nately lacks a practical assembly room. The high
school will benefit from this new addition much
as will the grade school,
Taxpayers of this whole school district gain
directly from having the proposed addition next to
the high school. First of all whether they live in
West Glacier, Coram or the other communities,
their children in high school will have the benefit
of the new multiple purpose room where they will
not as directly from the new grade school,

Fish for Hungry Horse

Fishing in the new 34-mile long Hungry Horse
lake is a logical problem for the newly organized
Northern Rocky Mountain Sportsmens association
After all the big reservoir area is right mere ao-
iacent to Columbia Falls Hungry Horse, Martln
CITY, Coram and West Glacier where members OF
the new sportsmens association live.
In Kalispell February % there was an inter
esting meeting with a countrywide attendance Bob
Bennett president of Kalispells Flathead Sports
mems association, presided.
Walter M. Allen, Helena, state superintendent
of fisheries, was the speaker.
He explained the plan of the fish and game
department to obtain spawn at Big Salmon lake
at the headwaters of the Flathead's South Fork.
These spawn would be hatched at the hatchery near
Ovanda, and then the little fish dropped into the
new Hungry Horse lake by airplane
Hungry Horse would become lake of the true
Montana native trout, splendid game fish. The
spawning program would give the cutthroats boost
in the natural race that will come the new lake
forms. Question is what type of fish will become
dominant. 1t could be suckers and rough fish or
possibly salmon, and other trout especially the
cutthroats.
We like the fish and game department idea that
Hungry Horse lake, if possible, should be stalked
with the true Montana cutthroat, and not the des-
cendants of the product of half dozen different
hatcheries-in short virtual hybrids.
1t is unfortunate that the apparently logical
place to obtain this spawn is Big Salmon lake in
the primitive There number of folks who
dislike the idea of taking spawn from lake in

ed to three years. Z
Perhaps the idea of primitive area should be
re-examined. We believe that primitive area also
serves as reservoir for wldlife. Glacier national
park itself, with its wildlife that migrates helps
maintain the elk that made it possible to hunt each
fall on the forest side of the Flathead rivers Mid
die Fork.
That Big Salmon lake now will become means
to help populate the new Hungry Horse lake with
the true Montana clftthroat like good idea.
Big Salmon will not be particularly changed by the
limited project, and the precedent of obtaining
true species from the primitive area doesn't appear
disastrous.
For that matter Montana has been replenishing
its mountain goat herds each year by trapping and
transporting goats from the South Fork primitive
by air. That isn't bad idea either, long as
it is controlled MR.

Are You in the glorious sunsets,
Purple, yellow, blue and gold?
Do You walk at falling twilight,
Praying, grieving for my soul?
Are You of the moons in heaven?
And the stars that shine above?
Is Your heart all filled with sor-
row,
For the children that you love?
Do You grieve for me by night,
God?
If You touched me, would I know?
Are you there in the still darkness?
You are near, Godl
This I know.

Time WQstinQ

Last week there was an Associated Press item
from Washington, D. c. that Rep Norrell (D-Ark.)
thought Hungry Horse "a pretty silly name"
The congressman, member of the appropria-
tions committee, added that "It ought not be hum
cry horse any longer. 1t ought to be fat by this
time"
When the Arkansas congressman was informed
by Department of Interior official that out here
we like the name, Hungry Horse, the Arkansasan
replied There are others in the country who do
not. They the ones to be considered"
Since we are the Hungry Horse News we get
involved in the matter of the every once in
while. This past year it became the subject of a
Time magazine feature.
The name Hungry Horse is certainly typical
of the west and the importance of horses in the set
tlement of Montana. If Representative Norrell is in
terested point out this background feature
as it carries through present maps of the Rocky
Mountains.
Incidentally down in Arkansas note that
the capital is called Little Rock. Here in Montana
we'd find Big Rock, and of there should be
Cotton, Ark. though can't figure out why

mountains We've quarrel, be that what it may
Seriously this is an election year and we hope
Democratic Congressman Norrell wasn't thinking
in terms of Hungry Horse dam becoming Truman
dam which might even start a move to call it Taft
dam. Personally prefer Hungry Horse, and our
thought is the name has popular appeal and GER
tainly attracts visitor interest. MR.

Tired Of Snow, Paint Flowers
by Apgar school

'APGAR-We are StttlllS III
tie tired of seeing just snow, so we
are painting gay flowers on the
windows at the scholhouse.
The first and second graders are
doing the painting. We still have
many birds coming to the windows
for crumbs and such. If the crumbs
aren't put out promptly, the blue
jays sit up in the trees and scold
in their harsh voices.
Flipper, the turtle, still likes to
sleep away the hours, but he does
Mt bother to crawl in under the
moss so much, now. We wonder if
that is a sign of coming spring.
ATTENDANCE RECORDS
The girls of Apgar school were
proud of their record for the last
six weeks: only one, one-half day
absence. Perfect records for at
tendance for the six weeks: Elaine
Anderson, Donna Brewster, Mar
garet Ann Grist, Lynn Sunell, Ste
phen Jackson, Eldon Powell and
Larry Floren.
Wallace Floren is able to use his
crutches a little more and is COM
ing along nicely.
Still plenty of snow about and
still a crust on the snow. The deer
can walk on top of it. The lake is
still frozen over, but even with all
these signs of winter, Eddie and
Dorothy Brewster are thinking of
summer. They are making
switch; changing the cafe into the
present store building, and the
store will be in what is now the
cafe. This will give them much
more room for their cafe. They
will no doubt need it with Bill
Mackin's new motel next door and
with the new campground at Ap-
gar.
A number of the neighbors met
at the Walsh home Friday for
cake, ice cream and canasta. The
occasion? John Walsh's birthday.
Johnnie Anderson reports the
park is clearing out the roads in
the new campground using the
snow go and other snow moving
Grant Anderson and Harold
left Sunday morning for
Wash, where they will
pick up a load of war surplus
goods for the park service. They
Will be gone about week.

home Sunday after spending
