The Call is signed by Sen. J. W. Anderson of Richland County, prominent Labor Officials of Miles City and Butte, John Driscoll, of Butte, a prominent member of the conference for Progressive Political Action. Hon. Clair Stoner, for two terms, prominent Non-partisan League fanner member of the Legislature from Sheridan County and present Chairman of the Executive Com mittee of the Nonpartisan League of the state of Montana, Hon. Charles E. Taylor, Senator from Sheridan County and editor of the Producers News, Wm. F. Dunne, former Labor member of the Legislature from Butte, present editor of the Butte Bulletin, the leading labor paper of the the west, J. Haaland, Jr., Senator from Liberty County, Arthur Rueber, former District Manager of the Montana Wheat Growers Association, and numerous other prom inent labor and farmer leaders of the state, after setting forth the purposes and objects of the party and repeating the fact of the hopelessness of securing any relief whatever for the agricul ture and industrial workers through either of the corrupted old parties, dominated and managed as they are from \yall Street. It is time that the farmers and workers come out of these parties of corruption; it is time they took definite steps to or ganize the Famier-Labor Party ; it is time that the honest leaders foreswear further participation in the present schemes of the old party politicians to again fool the people. I The Call is opportune—it is meeting with a most amazing response from the workers all over the state. The time is most for this venture and its success seems assured from The fact that farmers of North Dakota, the old auspicious the very start. Nonpartisan League if you please, and also of South Dakota, Ne braska and Washington, have declared in such unqualified tenus for the Farmer-Labor Party in those states, leaves no alternative in Montana. The so-called progressive in Montana who stands aside now will find himself not in front of, but behind the parade— for the mass of the people of the state of Montana are practically unanimous for a Farmer-Labor Party. The success of the party—the election of the entire national and state ticket by an overwhelming majority in this state, is acknowledged by every careful observes of political development in the state. It is needless to say that there is consternation among the politicians of both the old parties—there is already much running to and fro—there is acute cold feet, there is much shivering. The news from Minnesota is pregnant with anything but comforts for those members of the ancient order of public kidders. There is a panic among the pie-card contingency as usual when the workers step-out for themselves—these poor tit suckers dread the thought of the old cows drying up, and their counter activities are to be expected. It is anticipated that there will be a representative number of delegates at Great Falls, on October 28rd, which day, we predict will be historical in the old Treasure State. Cream, per lb.

By ALMA HELLAND After getting on the train at Plen- ; tywood Monday, September 24th, I learned that the Daniels County Frin cess, Maye Belle Ronglie had gone to Wolf Point by car and was taking No. The Roosevelt County Princess Rohwene' Arnette joined me at Culbertson and from there on to Helena, our title group made larger so that when the Great Northern Superintenednt, Mr. Wear, invited us to take charge of his private car Tuesday.. morning, there were eleven of us glad to ac cept his kind offer. MET BY CHAPERONES We arrived in Helena Tuesday noon at 11:50 and were met at the train by our chaperones of the week. We were hurried to the home of Senator Walsh, which had been re-opened and j furnished especially for the Princesses of the counties. There were thirty six girls at this home and needless to say there were several chaperones, Our chaperone had charge of five or six Princesses, and this chaperone knew where each of of her girls was at all times. For instance I had writ ten a letter to mother and father and wanted to get the letter out on the evening train without fail. At just the time I wanted to get the letter mailed, the Official Chaperone, Mrs. Mallette had no assistant to send with me so after weighing the matter carefully she consented to let me go to the post-office which was a block and a half from the Walsh mansion, provided I would be back in ten min utes. This is just an example of the responsibility the Chaperones felt had been instrusted with them. ENTERTAINED AT PLACER Tuesday at 1:00 o'clock we were entertained at a Placer Hotel luncheon by the management of the New York Store of Helena. The members of the Woman's Club were hostesses at a reception given at the Y. C. A. from 3:00 to 5:00, and at 6:30 we were entertained by the Faculty and Student Body of Wesleyan College at Mills Hall. At 9:00 the two Yellow stone Park busses, which had been sent to Helena by Harry W. Child for the use of the Princesses took us to the Fair Grounds where we were in vited to see the carnival shows and enjoy the merry-go-round and ferris wheel. We were not permitted to buy a ticket for any one of the forms ot amusement. It seemed as it things run merely for our special benefit. After a few dances at the New Paid lion, we were taken to Senator Walsh's home to get a bit of rest pre paratory for the next (lay's program. ' GO SHOPPING WEDNESDAY . v Wednesday morning we went shop ping. At 12:15 we were the giVsts of the Rotarians at luncheon at the Placer Grill after which we were tak eft to the Fair Grounds and officially introduced to the people of Helena and visitors of the State Fair. We were at the Fair grounds all after noon, enjoying the high dives and races, and at 6:00 we had our dinner. After seeing the exhibits we were taken to the Placer Hotel for the dance. I from that city. was RECEIVED BY GOV. DIXON Thursday at 10:00 we were received by Governor Joseph M. Dixon at the Capitol. seeing Cap ital including the Senate and House where I located the chairs of Senator Charles Taylor and Representatives Aage Th. Larsen and Clair Stoner, j we were taken to the executive man-11 sion where Miss Virginia Dixon was hostess at breakfast. We were then taken to the Shrine Temple where we elected our "Queen", Although this was the important part of the week's program, it took only twenty minutes 1 to choose Miss Alice Smith of Baker, Fallon County, as our Queen. We > were assembled in a room and after a short talk by our Official Chaperone on the seriousness of the election we were given paper and pencil to make the vote. One can hardly realize the task of choosing one out of a number of girls \Qiä wer^ as accomplished, pretty ancLpopular as were the girls it was my pleasure to meet at the Walsh mansionJBut only one could be chosen so we had to vote as we thought best. The three girls having the most number of votes which were Lorine Wilson—Park county, May Belle Ronglie—Daniels county, and Alice Smith—Fallon county, were voted upon again and of these three our "Queen" Alice Smith received the most number of votes. "Queen Alice" was most worthy of the honor be stowed upon her and after we had hurried to congratulate her we were take nto the Walsh mansion for our dinner. At 9:00 the Coronation Ball at the Shrine Temple was one which can never be forgotten. "Queen Alice" was the first in the procession, wear ing the Official Robe and was followed by the Queen of 1922, Miss Dorothy Bevier of Gallatin county. Then the Princesses marched by pairs with a flower birl separating each pair. We marched to the platform where Gov ernor Dixon crowned our "Queen" and after a short march the orchestra started playing a Fox-trot and the crowd started dancing. "QUEEN ALICE" INTRODUCED Friday morning we were taken to Broadwater for a plunge and at 12:00 were taken to the All-Montana break fast at the Montana Club. At. 2:00 our "Queen" was introduced at the fair and at 6:30 we were ente gained by the Woman's Division of the Hel ena Commercial Club at the Country Club. At this dinner the Princesses presented our Official Chaperone Mrs. Mallette with a Beaded purse, the Lewis and Clark county Princess Edith McDonough making the pre-1 sentation speech. In reply to this speech Mrs. Mallette stated that the gift wqs superfluous although it meant ten times its intrinsic value, that each of the PrincÄses had found a place in her heart which no other girl would ever fill and we were just "her" girls. After the dinner, the 1 vaudeville show at the Shrine Temple was much enjoyed. Then a few danc es at the Placer Hotel and some of the girls of the party were leaving for their homes or the homes of friends in Helena. WILL NEVER FORGET TRIP It is impossible to describe the flowers and the many gifts. The group pictures were taken before a luncheon -and. when we arrived at the house the reporter was getting the name of each so that the cut could be [ ma de in Butte for the next day's 1 paper. The Princesses were given two picures of the group by the Lyle Studio. Chocolates were sent to the house by the dozen boxes. The whole City of Helena was just turned over to the Princesses and when asked ; whether or not I had enjoyed by stay i there, I could only make this com- j parison: This trip has been to r^e i like the trip through Yellowstone ! Park. There are so many wonderful things to enjoy and so many things to see in such a short time that one won flers if they are really there. It has been a trip I never will forget and whoever has the good fortune to go next year will agree with me in that the little work that was connected! with it was the first of the pleasures. ! I was a million times repaid, thanks I ao you who made the trip possible, j ——- IT 1 rniTr*/^TTTTn/^VTPC 1 A I Hr I H KI.HLN 111L vllV*»vlIIA/ - ' ST JOSEPH'S CHURCH ' ' " _ M Tnk .p n h's Church next i g J SÄ, S V sS in the ' ' *_ TWAK „ „ " u FRV irP* IHAJNK CHOiK Firn We take this means of thanking the c h° xr of the Catholic Church for then P art of , the service during the funeral of dea J k M MR - and MRS - FRED FORMAN. .
