Library Gets
What 1t Wants
By JACK JONAS

The Library of Congress this
year has acquired two works,
which, the announcement
said, have been on the want
list" for some time.
One of these is a rare, two
volume, classical Armenian
dictionary, Nor Bargirk' Hay
kazean Lezowi," by the Mekhi-
tharist monks Gabriel Avedi-
khan, Khachadro Surmelian
and Mgrdich Aukerian.l
The other is the original
manuscript of Victor Herbert's
Babes in Toyland." The die
tionary was mentioned as be-
ing sought for 10 years, and
the m a nuScript as long
wanted"
Now a want list for a library
as all-incluSive as the Library
of Congress must be faScinat-
ing rea ding, full of items
like Armenian dictionaries and
Herbert manuscripts. But,
alas, unless you're a mind
reader, there's nothing to read
at all.
A lady at, the Library said
the want list" is carried
around in the minds of the
various division heads, who
know what they want, and
when they hear about it, try
to get it.
A copy of the dictionary
evaded the Near East Section
in 1916 when another buyer
beat the Library to it. This
year, when one was listed for
sale by a Paris bookdealer, the
Near East Section got off a
quick cable and bought it.
The manuscript was bought at
auction in London.
The closest thing to a want
list, the lady at the Library
went on, is an annual list put
out for libraries all over the
country, who can't find what
they want in any of the other
libraries.
But the big library carries
its wants around in its head.
For the original manuscript
of Victor Herbert'S Babes in
Toyland," that might be easy.
But trying to remember Nor
Barhgirk' Haykazean Lezowi,"
by the Mekhitharist monks
Gabriel Avedikian, Khachadro
Surmelian and Mgrdich Au-
kerian?
That's as difficult as trying
to remember, from am. to 6
pm, zone spool white cotton

Pennies

A man we know says he is
convinced the banks have no
sympathy with the American
Dream.
He and his wife began saw
ing pennies some time ago,
and accumulated quite box
full. They had no particular
purpose in mind, but thought
it would be nice to have a box
full of pennies around when
some extra cash was needed.
When they took their vaca-
ton this year, they decided to
spend their pennies. The pen
MES were at home, but they
spent the money anyway,
planning to replace it with the
pennies.
Have you ever tried to get
rid of a box of pennies?" he
asked. Il took them from bank
to bank, and all l got was a
cold stare. Looks like I'll have
to start chewing bubble gum"

Sapphire Mining and Cooks
By JALMAR KIVINEN

IN THE SPRING of 1905, when 1
was a boy of II, 1 rode horseback to
the YogO sapphire mines in search of
job. When arrived, the superintend-
ent, Mr. Charles T. Gadsden, put me
to work for a week taking timber for
the mine out of the Judith river. l had
to wear hip boots and stand in the
cold, mountain water all day, pulling
out the heavy timbers that had been
floated down the river from the noun
tain above. 1t was heavy work but 1
did we'll enough that Mr.. Gadsden kept
me on and later put me to work in
the mine.
The sapphire mine was one of the best
places in the state to work. The crew
were of all nationalities but all happy,
peaceful boys. We worked seven days
a week.
There were no saloons, only one small
store owned by Billy Cowan. He worked
in the mine, also, and ran the store
as sideline If you bought candy, to-
bacco, boots or clothing, he would ask
if you wanted to shake dice, double or
nothing. He valued his store at 5000
and was willing to shake for that, too,
but he had no takers.
The meals served at the mine were
the best. Groceries were hauled up
from Utica, the nearest cowtown. We
had canned fruits, oyster stew twice
week and ice cream on Sunday There
were coffee, tea and fresh milk on the
table every meal.
Usually Mr. Gadsden had the best
of cooks. Once, however, he hired one

$l5,OOO,OOO Bond Issue Needed
To Meet University Crisis

representing an increase of more
than 5000 students.
Unless the initiative is successful,
the earliest possible time by which
building funds through bond issue
could be made available for needed
classrooms and laboratories at the uni
versity units would be in the spring
of 1859.
If there were no legislative delays,
some buildings might be ready for use
by classes in the fall of 1860. By use of
the initiative, if the people approve
the bond issue at the November 1856
elections, funds will be available at
the beginning of 1857 and classroOms
will be available either in the fall of
1857 or by the spring of 1858.
The initiative proposal provides that
the Sis, 100000 derived from the bond
issue is to be distributed on formula
basis to the various units. This formula
is go per cent distributed on the basis
of enrolment; 20 per cent on the basis
of increases in enrollments that have
occurred since 1928; 10 per cent
for the experiment stations for agri-
culture, engineering and forestry, the
Bureau of Mines and Geology and the
Agricultural Extension Service; and the
remaining 10 per cent allocated to the
various units and services of the uni
versity system in manner and in such
amounts which, in the discretion of
the State Board of Education is in the
best interests of the state.
The initiative also provides that
the bonds will be 2O-year bonds,
bearing not to exceed per cent
interest. The bond issue would be fl
nanced by levy not to exceed 21z
mills on the taxable property of
the state.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1956-06-01

TO MEET A NEED in buildings and
facilities for Montana's Greater Uni
versity, a need that already is acute
and will be critical by 1860, the State
Board of Education has authorized ac-
ton to get a SIS, ZOO, 900 bond initiative
on the ballot for this years election.
This will call for cooperation Of Mon
tana voters and fast action in the next
four or five weeks.
The only way the initiative can
get on the ballot for the November
general election is by petition which
must be signed by per cent of the
registered voters of the state and
filed in the office of the Secretary
of State by July 6. This means that
total of not less than 21,1O4 sigma
lures of voters in at least % cOun-
ties must be obtained within the
next few weeks.
And only if the initiative is presented
to and approved by the public this fall
Will IL NC pOSSlUlS lOl t4ly Uullu1lSS W
be erected in time to meet the crisis
deadline of 1860 If the initiative cannot
be presented for direct action by the
voters this fall, it will then be held
up until the 1858 election 1t would have
to be submitted to the 1857 legislature,
which could act favorably on refer
endum to be submitted to the taxpay-
ers in the general election the following
year.
But the buildings are needed now
and must be ready before 1860.
According to the most cOnserva-
tive estimates and computations,
the university system will have ap-
prOximately 1850 students enrolled
in the fall of 1860. This compares
with a present enrolment of 7,4OO,

didn't like his cooking and wanted to
get rid of him. One of the men. John
Gill, said he'd get rid of him. He got
an empty blue medicine bottle, broke
it up and scattered it around the bunk
house. Then, in the cooks hearing, he
dropped some hints that there were
some sapphires lying around.

picked up and the cook had quit his
job and left for Lewistown. Our next
cook was dandy.
During the years I frequently trav-
eled by stage coach from Old Geyser
to Utica, where often stopped at the
hotel owned and operated by Mr.. and
Mrs. John Bowe. Mrs. Bowe has now
become more famous as the subject
Of a painting by Charles Russell. He
painted her as girl feeding her pet
antelope in the year 1882 in Utica.
On one occasion I entered the hotel
through the kitchen. They had a Chi
nese cook at the time. He was bent
over table, working on pretty frosted
cake. noticed his cheeks were all
bulged out with a nlouthful of coconut.
AS l passed by, he gave one hard, big
blow and covered the cake with coco
nut so evenly that modern cake deco

They served the beautiful cake for
supper. I said nothing, but I had no
taste for cake.

after 1910, when I filed on a homestead
and left mining for farming.
