thought to be the thing to do in

She was a Schol teacher, too,
''and school teachers make good

He was a professor for a
while, teaching philosophy and
religion at Jewell College from
1910 to 1922. His service was
interrupted during World

American troops overseas.
He was present at the two
big American battles, st. Mihiel

He stayed on as European di-
rector of ABFMS for the next
II years. Although it was called
missionary work, DR.. Lewis says,
"the BaptistS didn't actually
send any missionaries. They
sent money and advice and I
travelled all over the continent
giving out both. But people
always took the money and let

Marched ON Washington
Anne Royal. who might well
be regarded as the ancestress
Of keyhole reporters and COL
umnists given to scurrilous
phrases, marched on Washing
ton in the year 1924 wearing
a calico dress and poke bon
net. an ink horn slung on her
shoulder by q rope and carry
ing a bunch Of quill pens.
1t seems impossible to Sc
lect the true stories Of Anne
Royal from the false. The
most usual story is that she
sat on President John Quincy
Adams clothes-when she
caught him bathing in a Sc
cluded bend Of the Potomac
River-until she secured an
interview on the banking sit
uation.
She had a decrepit printing
press and edited and printed
her paper single handed. First
it was THE Huntress" and
then Paul Pry from 1881 to
1886. She embarked on a
crusade in defense of Peggy
Eaton. wife of the Secretary
of War in the Andrew jackson
administration, and dined at
the White House with Andrew
jackson as her host. She was
tried as common scold. but
the ducking stool especially
built for her was never used
for two young reporters paid
her $40 fine.
Leafing over. the chronicles
Of Washington's. officialdom
and society it is interesting to
discover that the first woman
from overseas to be given the
keys to the city on account of
her writing and reporting
achievements was not a So
ciety columnist or a novelist
but Harriet Martineau, an
Englishwoman whose forte was
political economy.
She came to Washington
in 1884 and remained nearly
a year to gather material for
her work on taxation of the
poor. She was. wined and dined
at the White House, feted in
the homes Of important peo-
pie and a constant visitor to
the Congress. She used a huge
ear trumpet but such men as
Henry Clay. Daniel Webster
and John c. Calhoun liked
to converse with her.
Her popularity waned when
she openly sympathized with
the small. unpopular Adolf
zionist Party. She wrote un-
favorably Of the United States
institutions when she returned
to England.
Special Privileges
Browsing through the files
Of early publicationsLthose
at the turn Of the century up
to the present time-it is easy
to discern that women of the
newspaper profession often en-
joyed special privileges as
friends Of White House fam.
flies and OF important people.
The story has persisted that

sary at the Pan American
Union on May IS: when the
Woman's National Press Club
promises to surpass all past
performances in uuips. barbs
and repartee at the annual
dinner and stunt party to be
held at the Hotel Statler the
evening of May Is. and May
Day, Mrs. Anne williams
Wheaton, the new associate
press secretary at the White
House, will be installed as the
first newspaperwoman to be
appointed to a key White
House post.
So it seems to be the time to
take a look at the part women
who first welded quill pens
and then pencils. fountain
pens and typewriters have
played in the evolution of our
national Capital City during
its 157 years of existence.
It would take a rare brand
Of temerity to evaluate talents
and prestige of the hosts of
women of the press today, or
to venture comparisons and
tributes. Therefore it is wiser
to adhere to the story of the
pathflnders of the women of
the Fourth Estate Of past eras
in this world center. Their ac-
complishments have led to the
present corps of women re-
porters. commentators in all
modern media of communica-
ton of the written spoken,
and visual word.
Set High Standard
A high standard was set by
the very first Washington
newspaper woman, Margaret
Bayard Smith. wife Of Samuel
Harrison Smith, editor Of the
Washington Intelligencer, who
came to Washington in 1900
when the Federal City was
established. Her writings are
sources of authentic informa-
ton Of the acts and opinions
of men and women Of the
first 40 years Of Washington.
No more fascinating bit Of
Americana exists than her
blow by blow" account Of the
election in Congress conducted
to decide whether Thomas
Jefferson or Aaron Burr would
be the third President Of the
United States. incidentally,
she used a little over 500
words for what would certainly
be a Page One award-winning
column today.
Excerpts from her notes read:
1T was a day big with the
country's fate--a fate not
suspended on the triumph or
defeat of two contending
armies. drawn forth in battle
array-but two outstanding
political parties. who after
years Of conflict were now
brought to issue. Accord
ing to the constitutional rule
two men were to run, the one
for President and the other
for Vice President and he who
had the greatest number of
votes was to be President.
The people who with such
an overwhelming majority had
declared their will would never
peaeeably have allowed the
man Of their choice to be set
aside and the individual they
had chosen as Vice President
to be put in hts place
the crisis was at hand.
The two bodies Of Congress
met-the Senators as witnesses
and the Representatives as
electors. The sitting was
held with closed doors

says his tonnage is still somewhat
higher. On the first 60 acres dug this
year, they were running little better
than 81 tons per acre.
Takes More Fertilizer
With more beets per acre, Spencer
says he believes it takes more fertilizer.
This years crop received ID tons of
manure, 300 pounds of SO per cent nitro
gen and 200 pounds of As per cent phos-
phate per acre.
It's been Spencer's experience that a
machine thinner works best when the
beets are to 4 inches high and have
about eight leaves on them. If the beets
are smaller than this, the thinner just
covers them up instead Of removing
them, he says.

have to carry the project for at least
four years to obtain full value and

Sterling Swigart, a 10-year leader of

several members enrolled in range
management, has high praise for the
project. He feels, however, that all club

girls, should take the project for at
least one year in order to appreciate
and know some of our important native
plants.

All Range Projects Prove
Value i'm Richland County
BY DEAN DAVIDSON
County Extension Agent

An excellent set of project manuals
for each of the first four years of range
management has been developed by
Parker. This literature coupled with
plant Identification bulletins put out
by Montana State College and COM
mercial sources has enabled All men,
bers and leaders to progress in the
project without too much outside help.
Continuous Project
All club leaders and the county agent
have been encouraging Richland Coun-
ty All members to think of Range
Management as a continuous project.
The Western Funmakers and Sioux Pass
Go Getters had a total of seven mem
bers who completed their fourth year
Montana farmer-stockman., 1957-11-15

WERNER KING, a 10-year leader of
the Western Funmakers All Club,
summed up the story of the All range
management project like this, SIT is a
project that members, parents and
leaders can learn more new ideas from
than perhaps any other project"
King and his co-leader, Mrs. Henry
Etzel, feel that range management is
a must All club project in range live
stock areas and especially where All
club members are carrying livestock
projects. They are encouraging all Of
the club members to carry the range
management project.
There has been rapid growth in the
popularity of the All range manage
ment project in the range livestock
areas in Richland County. This project
was started with one club in Richland
County in 1852 with four members en-
rolled and has grown TO the point where,
during the past year, Is members from
five clubs completed the project. In
1858, approximately 80 Richland Coun-
ty All members representing seven
clubs will enroll in Range Management.
Started From ''Scratch"
When the project was first initiated
in the county five years ago, members,
parents and leaders had to start from
scratch as little was known about the
science of range management locally.
The Extension agents needed help in
this field, so it was up to Karl Parker,
Extension range management special
list, to ''strike the spark" and to pro-
vide the initial training. Through his
help with plant Identification tours and
practical demonstrations on good man
agement practices, the project rapidly
caught on.
