HISTORICAL SOCIETY ORGANIZED IN 1865
The history of the Historical Society of Montana dates from
the beginning of territorial government. The act of incorpora
tion was passed by the first legislature February 2, 1865.
First officers were Colonel W. F. Sanders president, Gran
ville Stuart secretary and treasurer, Hez L. Hosmer historian,
Chris P. Higgins, W. F. Sanders, Malcom Clark, Walter W. De
Lacy and H. L. Hosmer directors.
For eight years the Society depended upon individual effort
in the collection of material and funds. The first legislative ap
propriation was signed May 7, 1873, and provided for an annual
payment of $150 for the purchase of manuscripts and books re
lating to the territory, and for other expenses.
PIONEERS ORGANIZED IN 1884
At Helena, on September 10, 1884, the Society of Montana
Pioneers was organized. The meeting was called by J. R. Wil
son of Dillon.
Sam Hauser presided at the organization meeting. Officers
elected were: James Fergus president; Dr. W. Mussigbrodt and
W. W. DeLacy vice presidents; John Potter secretary and George
Irvine II assistant secretary.
Colonel W. F. Sanders stated the objectives of the meeting,
the principal ones being to get the pioneers together for mutual
association and to assist the Historical Society in compiling an
historical record.

Rain Makers
Back to Laboratories
NEW YORK. — Scientists can
make it rain—but they agree
that they can't make it any time,
any place. So they are going
back to their laboratories to see
what they can do about it.
The making of rain with dry
ice, experiments with which be
gan some three years ago, can
not be done just with any old
cloud or at any old place.
The United States weather
bureau has recently concluded
three rain-making experiments
with negative results they got
more than a year ago in tests
over Ohio when 150 attempts
failed to show how to make rain
of economic importance to farm
ers.
Scientific rainmaking, how
ever, has proved one new point
beyond doubt
clouds, their structure, why the
rain and why they develop the
power to cause disasters are a
lot more intricate than has been
supposed.

Old Indian Village
s to Be Restored
5y Wisconsin State
AZTALAN, WIS. — Today about
350 persons live here at Aztalan
where five hundred years ago about
1,000 Indians dwelt in a thriving
village. The Indian inhabitants van
ished about 1500 and now the site
of the once busy Indian village is a
bumpy field knee-deep in
big.
weeds; but the state of Wisconsin
plans someday to reconstruct the
village to look just as it did cen
turies ago.
The state of Wisconsin has pur
chased the site for a state park.
But no construction of the village
be done until the topsoil is
can
carefully scraped away and the
undisturbed ground below the plow
zone scrutinized.
Ten brawny, sun tanned archaeolo
gists are spending the summer in
the middle of the field, carefully
scraping the soil off and cataloging
everything they find. The expedi
tion, headed by Chandler Rowe, as
sistant professor of anthropology at
Lawrence college, has uncovered
broken jugs, bird and deer
many
bones, shell hoes and an occasional
sharp bone used by the Indians as
a shuttle in weaving.
From the materials found, the
archaeologists reconstruct the cul
ture of the Indians who lived here.
Rowe pointed to a circular blackish
area about six inches across, and
explained that it was a decayed
post. Series of such post holes have
indicated the exact location of a
stockade that surrounded the vil
lage and the size and shape of the
houses. When the conservation de
partment restores the village, it
will be able to sink posts in the
exact places where the Indians did.
Archaeologists have been excavat
ing Aztalan off and on since 1919.
Their discoveries show pretty cer
tainly that the Indians were from
the middle Mississippi valley.
People Urged
To Right Acts
By Conscience
WASHINGTON, D.C.-The
man conscience sometimes makes
men do many strange things. |
Among these is the particular act
or decision to ease one's conscience
making restitution for a fancied
or real theft or deception.
hu
For instance, the White House
recently received a letter the other |
day which said:
"Enclosed is 5 cents which 1 owe
the government. While out on the
Atlantic in a boat I dropped a
nickel overboard. He is another
one to put back in the mint."
Officials believe the letter was j
written in all sincerity, that there ;
was nothing facetious about it.
Many federal agencies get letters
from people with guilty consciences
and most of the letters contain
money. If they do, they go to the
"conscience fund" under the treas
ury's bureau of accounts; Joseph
A. Woodson, chief. The money ends
up in the general federal kitty and
is spent.
■
.
Started in 1811
First known contributions to the
conscience fund were during the
administration of President Madi
son back in 1811. The total that
year was $250. For the fiscal year
1948 it was $124,168.12.
Some people sign their names;
others do not. A great many say
they have found religion, and with
it a pang of conscience for some
past wrong.
A few jokesters are involved.
Like the woman who sent 5c in
stamps "to be applied against our
251 billion dollar public debt."
The letters, though, are not funny
to the conscience fund people who
maintain a large office on the fourth
floor of the treasury building and
keep an elaborate file and book
keeping system on such matters.
Each signed letter is answered po
litely.
The current crop of notes con
tains many from former service
men.
One sent a money order for $30
to pay for property he stole while
wearing an army uniform. Another
had filched "a bunch of light
bulbs" from the navy. "I don't
know how many," he said, 'but I
think $10 will cover it."
Returns $3.62
overpaid by $2.62 at the time of
his discharge. He returned it, plus
10c in interest.
A soldier said he had walked out
of a separation center (somehow)
with his discharge papers in one
hand and a bass drum in the other.
He sent $17.50 with a notation that
"it was such a poor drum it
couldn't have been worth more
than that."
A woman not long ago mailed in
$150 in cash. She explained that she
owed the government that much
and had sent the amount in before.
"I didn't receive any reply from
you the first time, so here it is
again." She didn't sign her name
to either letter.
Sometimes the amount is small,
but in the past startled clerks have
opened plain envelopes containing
as much as $30,000.
Hypnotic Therapy Credited
With Curing Amnesia Case
NEW YORK CITY.—Hypnotic
therapy has been credited with
restoring memory to a New Roch
elle housewife who apparently had
been suffering from total amnesia
for the past nine years.
The patient was Mrs. Emily Nor
ton, 26, mother of two young chil
dren. She was reunited in New
Rochelle with two of her brothers
who arrived from Braddock, Pa.,
her former home which had been
erased from her mind.
Details of the cure were told by
Dr. Nathaniel E. Selby, who placed
the young matron in her hypnotic
state. He said that when she came
to him last Thursday she could re
member nothing of her past save
that she had fainted on a street in
Philadelphia in 1942, was unable to
identify herself and started life
anew as a waitress.
Four years ago she met and
married John A. Norton in New
Rochelle. They had two children,
Robert, 3, and Melaine, aged 1.
Fearful of delving into her past,
she had told her husband she was
an orphan. She came to Dr. Selby
for diagnosis and treatment of
headaches.
The phychiatrist said that under
ordinary questioning Mrs. Norton
could remember only the names
of "Kybski" and Braddock, Pa.
Dr. Selby communicated with
the Braddock police. They told
him an Emily Kobalanski had dis
appeared in 1940 and had never
been found. The family, consist
ing of father, mother, four broth
ers and a sister, were dubious after
having checked so many fruitless
clues. But they told the doctor
Emily had a asr.all scar on her fore
head.
When Mrs. Norton visited him
Tuesday, Dr. Selby saw the scar.
It was then that he hypnotized
her and, be said, "she had a full
return of memory," except that
details of her past between
some
1940 and 1942 still remain to be
cleared up.
