| The peregrinations of a man and
woman in love remain eternally in

Mr.. Hayes puts his characters
under more high powered miscros-
cope than usual. Al their bio
logical and emotional reactions are
revealed in minute detail, some
times to the point when the reader
lis tempted to suggest the parties
involved take a cold shower and a
few liver shots.
The story, of course involves two

stories involve a triangle of one
kind or another. The love of man
and woman unchallenged or I'M
threatened by a third party tends
to be fictionally routine and dull.
This particular love triangle is
enacted in an urban milieu. II be-

contemplating picking up a young
lady somewhat younger. The story
then cuts back TO the mans next

the hero's feelings as the love OF

This new book by the wife oi
Senator Flanders of Vermont is a
bout the heart of New England be
cause it is about the songs thai
have spring from her people.
The ballads gre about everything
from a false hearted knight to 4
blind beggar's daughter. from the
shanty boys to a castle by the sea
Some of them have their ballad
roots in old England and some ir
colonial America. Some were borr
long ago in a Turkish castle, anc
some when men were laying track:
for the first railroads. Familiar
fellows are there like Robin HOOD
and King william, Herod and the
Brave Wolfe who fought Montcalm
Most Of the songs are preceded
by several bars of the music tc
which they are sung, and short ex.
planatory paragraphs regarding
their beginnings.
Mrs. Flanders does most of her
own leg work when she collect:
her ballads. And after more thar

has a steady stream of clues com.

B. K. Wheeler Honored
By Montana Democrats

Former Senator Burton K
| Wheeler was the honor CUES
at gathering of democratic lead
ers and party workers at thu
Ranch, between Cut Bank anc
Shelby, on Wednesday evening
of this week.
! The meeting was sponsored
! by democratic leaders of Gu
Bank, and was largely attended
by representatives from not only
this county but from Toolc, Pom
dera, Teton and Liberty countie!
and special guests from Other
points in the state.
According to the announce
ment, no particular political sig
nificanc is attached to the meet
ing, but inasmuch as Montana
will elect United States senator
next year, Sen. Murray's term eX
piring at that time, the gathering
of the faithful at this early date
with the former accepted head OF
the party as honor guest, caused
some POLITICAL eyebrow raising
in certain quarters.
A siZeablc delegation from
Browning attended the meeting.
and report most interesting cv,
ening.
Long time friends of the for
mer senator. who had known him
when he was power in the u. S,
senate and recognized leader of
his party in Montana, enjoyed
meeting him. and exchanging
"reminiscences, recalling some of
the Old-time battles when the
courageous young attorney from
Butte was considered something
of a political fire-brand by the
more conservative members of
his party. He served "a years in
the senate, and ironically enough.
was defeated by his own party in
the primaries.
At the meeting Wednesday night
Wheeler talked MOSTLY about
his experiences in the senate.
and pointed out that he had con
sistently held that it was impos-
sible to trust, or do business with
the Russians. He was an i'm
placable opponent of the gov
ernmcnt policy of appeasment
and Compromise with the Rus
slams.
If he holds. any aspirations to
return to the political scene in
Montana and regain his lost lead
ership, he gave no hint of any
such intention in hhis talk at the
Wednesday evening meeting.

Historic Pageant to be
Staged at Cut Bank

/ Next Saturday and, Sunday
August % and %, will be present
ed in Cut Bank another of a ser.
les of pageants directed by Mr.
Bert Hansen, professor at Mon
tana State University, bringing to
life many scenes of early day
Montana history.
The Cut Bank pageant will re.
tell the story of the discovery of
Marias pass, where the Great
Northern Railway company fin.
ally found a feasible route to
get through the Rocky Noun
tains in their program to extend
the Hill rail route to the Pacific
coast.
Other similar pageants held
other Montana counties have
proved highly entertaining and
of much valuable educational
interest. Many residents of the
western part of the county are
planning to attend the affair.
THE historical pageant, THE
Mysterious Marias Pass on the
Wild High Border, is a dramatic
account of the development of
transportation in this area.
The first episode of the pag-
cant takes place when Merriweth-
er Lewis is searching for a pass
through the northwest. He en-
counters band of war-like In
dians. The secret of the Marias
pass is surrounded with supersti-
ton built up by the Blackfeet In
dams and many brave white men
were driven away by the DOGGY.
In the second episode, which
takes place in the Bitterroot, the
decision TO abandon the explora-
ton of the northern pass is dis
closed. The course of history
is changed, delaying the opening
of this area.
Then James Stephens conquers
the Marias Pass and the supersti-
eioh. liC dSoulSS JdllleS Till, lne
railroad empire builder, that a
railroad can be built through the
pass, thus opening up rich
country -.
In the fourth episode the first
train arrives at Cut Bank. The
arrival of the train builds up
both hopes and doubts of the set
tiers. The final episode, taking
place in 1913,depicts the famous
Glidden caravan tour. Interest
is now focused on developing
Glacier Park and thus one of the
biggest businesses in Montana
today-the tourist trade
On the streets of Cut Bank can
be seen bearded men and cos
tuned ladies who are in the pag-
cant spirit. Many of the stores
have window displays depicting
times portrayed in the pageant.
The Chamber of Commerce and
the Retail Trade committee are
awarding prizes for the best
boards, costumes and displays.

industry have brought increased
interest in lands on the Blackfeet
milan reservation. Mos m
portant of these developments
have been the discovery of the
largest gas producing we'll or
the North American continent
; in the Pincher Greek field just
north of the western portion OF
the Blackfeet, reservation, and
the discovery of a new oil produc

little further east.
This new formation lies just
below what is called the Madison
lime. Before discovery of this
new we'll, the Madison lime was
thought 10 be the major oil bear.
ing geological formation. Dis.
covery of the new we'll, however,
seems to have created a general
impression that perhaps wells
drilled in this area have not been
completed to a sufficient depth
to adequately test the area, as
this new we'll flowed 500 barrels
of oil per day on initial test. Dis
covery of the gas well spotlights
attention on the vast mountain
front extending along the east
slope of the Rocky mountains the
entire length of the Blackfeet In
dian reservation. and discovery
of the new oil producing sands in
the Del Bonita field has created
considerable interest in reserva-
ton lands just across the border.
Most recent evidence of this
interest is the fact that two leases
have just been approved to the
Union Oil Company by the Black
feet Tribe on approximately 1000
acres of land located in Town
ships SO and 81, Ranges 8 and 9.
and just across the border from
the new Del Bonita wells. The
Blackfeet Tribal Council has al
SO approved an application from
the Union Oil Company for the
advertisement of 1,114.l5 acres of
TRIBAL mineral lands located in
Secs. Is, 10, 20 and 80 in Twp. 81,
Range 8 w. and Immediately ad.
jacent to the land recently leased
to the Union Oil Co.
Although interest: was stimu.
lated by the discoveries mention
ed, more than mild interest in
potential oil and gas lands on the
reservation has been developing
for some. time. Leases have
been negotiated over the past
several months with owners of
patent-in-fee lands on the reser-
walton, and since April of 1858.
the Blackfeet Tribal Council has
granted permits to the Standard
Oil Co., Shell Oil Co., Gulf Oil
Co., Continental Oil Co., and the
Union Oil Co. to make geophys-
ical surveys of tribal lands on
the Blackfeet reservation.
Leasing of Tribal lands has
been slowed considerably by the
necessity of the Tribal Council
obtaining permission of the De,
partment of the Interior of the
form of advertisement to be used
IN each individual sale. 1t has
been the policy of the Bureau of
