But one of the big things required in these enterprises is the acquisition by every city of a municipal airport. In the old days tha cities of prom inence were located on the rivers. In the modern days they are the cities equipped with adequate airports. The city without a landing field means that that city will be relegated to the commercial rear. The future com mercial development is in the air. Immediately after this meeting I will telegraph the postal department to prepare to advertise for bids for carrying the air mail between Qreat Falls and Salt Lake. It is up to the business men of Montana to get be hind this movement to make it a sue. cess. It will be tough sledding for the fliers for the first six months or a year, but once the business men real ize that a letter mailed in Helena at 11 o'clock will be in Sak Lake six hours later, in Chicago that night and in New York the next morning, the success of the enterprise will be as- " sure( j "Contractors may bid not to exceed $3 per pound and many contracts have be-en let as low as 83 cents per pound, In addition to the mail the develop- j ment of the passenger traffic is a ' paying venture.

Winans of the Livingston city schools and Super intendent D. S. Williams of the Boze man schools, both officers of the as sociation, have had charge of the formulating of the programs for the sessions. Prior to the beginning of the formal meetings, scores of the visiting teachers insoected the reg ular work of the high school and the city schools, while others enjoyed themselves with jaunts about the city, which-many were seeing for the first time. Hallowe'eners are un to their pranks, which in some cases trans gress the dictates of common sense and fair play. To some of them is attributed the setting fire to a straw stack, valued at $125 and belonging to Francis Phipps, on Monday eve ning. Two Bozeman residents also reported that their automobiles had been marked and mutilated. DEATH SUMMONS TUTTLE, PIONEER S. F.

With his father he crossed the plains in 1863, gong first to California**but in 11^64 coming to Montana, arriving at ■ A1 der gulch July 8 where he remained, | prospecting and mining, until 1866.

Mr. Keeler will leave Friday, but Mr. Sweigert will remain in Bozeman for several days, cleaning up tag ends of the campaign and assisting the hotel executive committee in ev ery way possible. The ending of the' intensive drive," The Courier is in formed, does not mean that stock sales will cease; on the contrary, members of the executive committee will continue to give their fellow citi zens opportunities to "get in" on Bozeman's big community project, and it is anticipated that a number of people who have been slow to come to a decision will take stock. Something of the character and ap pearance of the proposed hotel • is contained in a letter written Eugene Graf, chairman of the executive com mittee, by Fred F. Willson, architect' who has been commissioned to draw the plans. Mr. Willson says in part: "The plan proposes a six story building of approximately 75 guest rooms, lobby, lounge, coffee shop, banquet and ball room and five small shops. Much needed public space is being arranged for so that conven tions, social functions and public meetings may be held. The plan is flexible so as to provide accommoda tion for small parties or large gath erings. 8i It is contemplated that the guest rooms will be simple and attractive in compliance with modern hotel re quirements. Seventy per cent of the rooms will contain showers or bath with toilet and lavatory; the remain der will have a toilet and lavatory. «i . Every room will have a spacious clothes closet which wi»l be equipped with modem hanging devices. Base outlets are to be provided in each room for necessary desk and bed I t J. N.

We are meeting the need for additional accommoda tions and through this building which reflects the civic pride of our citizens, we will be better able to extend to the visitor the warmth of our hospitality.

SYMPHONY TOUR CANCELLED Prof. Joseph Adam Finds Finan cial Difficulties Too Great to Be Overcome Cancellation of the proposed tour of the Montana Symphony orchestra and abandonment of the enterprise, at least for this year, was determined upon last week by Professor Joseph Adam, organizer and director, a result of obstacles and financial diffi culties, according to the Red Lodge Picket-Journal. Twelce Montana towns had booked concerts, but to reach them with his group of 23 musicians Mr. Adam found transportation costs prohibi tive. Loss of time and heavy expense would arise fropi long jumps and while with time and monej^ the sched ule could have been carried out, no means for obtaining the necessary support presented itself. This season's tour was to have been the second of the orchestra. Last ■year, at his own expense, Mr. Adam traveled over the state to book con certs, and when the orchestra tour was made the heavy expense ate up the finances to fcuch an extent that the musicians were only partly, and Mr. Adam not at all, compensated for their time and efforts. Indication that the attempt to pro vide this class 6f fnusical entertain ment for Montana communities is ap preciated was famished by letters ;rams received last week by r ''.lam urging him to carry on with tne tour. Remote possibility of renewing plans for this year's tour lies in the assumption of some of the burden of arranging bookings and guaranteeing fnances by some organization, group, or individual of Montana interested in preserving this "unique musical achievement of the West. and Mr. >y Arguments on appeal of Oscar Mer rill from conviction in police court on a charge of having violated Boze mai lr S ordiqancfr which declares pos 8ess i 0 n of intoxicating liquor a nuis ance were heard before supreme court at Helena Wednesday.
