FORTY CENTS A COPY—ONE DOLLAR AND A HALF A YEAR WESTERN MONTANA The Scenic Empire Situated approximately midway between the two great National Parks, Yellowstone and Glaeier, Missoula literally may be said to be in the heart of the Scenic Empire of the Northwest. In all directions out of the Garden City of Montana are places of marveloim beauty. Entering Missoula from the East, the pas senger on either of the two great transcontinental lines, Milwaukee and Northern Pacific, or the automobile tourist winds for miles through Hellgate Canyon. Westward the way is through the Rockies which provide never-ending delights for the eye of the traveler seeking Nature's beauty spots. Should the vacationist's urge be in the direction of Glacier, his route will take him through the Flathead Valley fringed by the beautiful Mission Range of the Rockies. Snow-capped, glacier- fringed, the Missions are incomparable in their beauty. As might be expected, this Western Montana country is a place for sportsmen. There are 700 miles of Trout fishing streams within a radius of 25 miles of the City of Missoula. During the big game season, hunters of Missoula know where to go. Come to the West you’ve heard about all your life. Do the things you’ve never done before and always wanted to. The dude ranches and recreation resorts of Western Montana within a few hours drive from the University City offers every kind of recreation such as bathing, riding, hiking, climbing mountains, fishing, and hunting in the heart of the Rocky Mountains or on dude ranches thousands of acres in extent. Indian life within twenty-five miles of the city and buffalos and other wild life in their native land. A inn historical places connected with the first settlement of Montana. All these things and more can be enjoyed in Western Montana’s Scenic Empire.

LINDERMAN Author of American, Old Man Coyote, Morning Light, etc. RED M OTH ER The Life Story of Pretty-Shield, a Medicine Woman of the Crows In American Mr. Linderman told the story of an Indian chief. Now in Red Mother he gives us perhaps the first record in history of the feminine side of the old days on the plains and in the hills. Pretty-Shield told it to him herself, through an interpreter and the sign language. She was a “ Wise-one,” a medicine-woman of the Crows, and with Plenty-Coups, who was the subject of American,
