MONTANA WESLEYAN IS
One OF ARMY SCHOOLS
Helena College Recently Designated
As One Where Men May Enter
Student Army Training Corps

Rev. E. L. White of Great Falls,
who spoke both morning and evening
at the M. E. church in Glasgow, in his
remarks pointed out that the Mon
tana Wesleyan college in Helena has
been designated by the government
as one Of the colleges where it will
maintain a students army training
corps. 1t is open to all men from 18
to As who have had a high school
education or it's equivalent. Many
young men have not been able to at
tend college because of the expense
entailed, but the difficulty is now
overcome, as the government in this
case pays all the expenses of the stu
dent and gives him $50 a month be-
sides. The students shall be under
military training and the government
has indicated that the great majority
of the 10000 officers, which will be
needed by the government by July l
next, will be secured through STU
dent Army Training Corps Units"
This is a rare opportunity to enter
college and also have the advantage
of military training. The other
schools in the state where these
courses are given are the School of
Mines, Butte; State university at
Missoula, and the State College of
Agriculture at BOzeman.

burner the vapor exploded, envelop-
ing her with flames and burning her
from her waist to her knees.
The room caught fire and Mrs. Phil
lips ran for an extinguisher, which she
handed to her husband, who followed
her out of doors. She rolled on the
ground while her husband extin-
guished the flames by the aid of the
apparatus. The twin baby boys of
Mr.. and Mrs. Phillips tried to run
into the blaze when attracted by the
screams of their mother and were
rescued by Mr.. Phillips, Sr. The fire
in the house was put out with the ex-
tinguisher after hard fight.
A physician was summoned from
Dodson and it was first thought that
the injured woman had chance to
recover as she seemed to rally and
was conscious most of the time. Sum
day afternoon she sank quickly, dying
at p. m.
The funeral services were held
from the Methodist church at Malta
Wednesday afternoon. The burial
services at the cemetery were in
charge of the Malta Eastern Star, of
which organization Mrs. Phillips was
a member.
The deceased is survived by her
husband, little daughter and twin
sons, her mother and sister at Helena
and father at Boulder. Prior to her
marriage to B. M. Phillips she was
Bess Kellar of Helena.

COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT
ENTERS WAR WORK
Miss Irene Murphy of Plentywood Be.
gins Course of Study Required
BY Red Cross

Miss Irene Murphy of Plentywood,
who has been the county superintend-
ent of schools ever since Sheridan
county was formed, left recently for
Great Falls, where she will begin her
course of study for war work con-
nected with the Red Cross. Miss
Murphy is we'll known in Glasgow and
Valley county, where she has many
friends. She has the reputation for
being thoroughly efficient in her line
of work and it seems safe to prophesy
that she will continue her record and
give an earnest and conscientious
worker to whatever branch of the
service she enters.
The Plentywood Herald pays her
, the following tribute:
"We have known her for the past
seven years, as nearly all the people
of Sheridan county have known her
and we are of the opinion that she is
one of the best and noblest of women.
We do not know of single person
we would rather meet over ther,' if
we were ill or wounded, than Miss
MurphY."

day will be on their way at no very
distant time.
The questionnaires have already ar
rived at the office of the local board
and as soon as the final word comes
the draft wheels will begin moving
again. The board has been busy this
week assigning serial numbers and
has already finished that part of the
work.
The figures of the registration last
Thursday, as taken from the report
card, show that of the 2,122 regis
trants, 1,454 are native born and 295
have been naturalized. Those who
became citizens by their fathers being
naturalized before they reached their
majority, are 80 in number. There
are 252 declarant aliens and Sc nat
uralized aliens. There are 2,101
whites registered. nine Orientals,

Roll of Honor
For Bond Buyers
THE COURIER WILL PRINT THE NAMES OF ALL
PURCHASERS IN GLASGOW-EVERY HOME
IN COMMUNITY SHOULD HAVE ONE
MEMBER ON THE LIST

The Courier expects that Liberty
bonds win be sold in every home in
Glasgow. Uncle Sam has apportioned
to US the neat little sum of $42 500,
and we are going to buy that much
and more.
Every person who buys all the bonds
he or she can is doing a real "bit"
toward defeating the kaiser, and en-
titled to the credit of doing it. Their
names should have a place on the
Glasgow roll of honor, and the Cou-
rier proposes to put them there.
While we are confident every home
in this community will be represented
by at least one name in this roll of
honor. we are in hopes that for very
many of the homes the name of each
member of the family will be included
in the list. We should like to see this
roll of honor contain the names of
every man and woman, every boy and
girl in Glasgow.
This roll of honor will be printed in
the Courier, and the only way to get
on it is to buy at least one bond. We
do not propose to print the amount of
bonds you buy, because that would
be unfair to those who can buy only
a small amount, and the person who
can only afford to and does buy one
$50 bond is entitled to just as much
credit as the person who can afford
to and does buy a much larger
amount.
The name of every real, 100 per
cent American-and the Courier be-
. lieves all the people of Glasgow are
that-will be found in this Glasgow
roll of honor buyers.

SIT DOWN and
WRITE YOUR SOLDIER
Valley County Boy Says Letters Are
Big Factors in Winning
the War

We have just got to be more
thoughtful about writing to those
soldier boys of ours over in France
or in this country. The following is
what Valley county boy-Arlie See
ly Of Hinsdale-has to say about it:
"When fellow gets letter he
feels that people at home really do
think and care about him and he i'm
mediately is anxious to forge ahead.
On the other hand, if he does not
receive any mail he will get the idea
that no one is concerned about him
and he will be contented to drift along.
"You would be surprised the effect
letter has on fellow. I have seen
eyes kindle and CLEAN with gladness
for package or for a letter or two
l have seen pangs of sorrow shoot
across soldiers face and shoulders
droop when there was no letter.
"Mothers, fathers, wives, brothers
sisters, sweethears and friends can do
no more patriotic service than by
writing to their soldier boys. They
do not have to be long letters, the
result of painstaking effort. ANY SOL
dier would rather receive short one
every few days than a long letter
once month. Cut out the sob stuff
none of that. Tell Sammie that the
pup licked the neighbor's dog, that sis
has a new beau; tell him all the gos-
sip about the young folks; that the
war garden is growing fine; in short
tell him all the clean, wholesome news
in the home and the community. Sol.
diers work hard all day long and night
finds them tired and sleepy and there
isn't much time in their busy routine
for letter writing, so, folks at home

think it should, do not wait for it be.

duty and he is rejoiced that he has
the chance to serve his country
abroad. He is in a hospital near the
front where surgery is practiced ex-
clusively. His tribute to the Red
Cross nurses is emphatic and enthu-
siastic.
Red Cross Nurses
Regarding them, he says:
"By the way, seven of our nurses
have been decorated by the French
government. They are the best edu-
Gated, most capable and at the same
time homeliest bunch l ever saw to-
gether, but what they don't know
about this war service isn't in the
book, that's all. These seven nurses
have been over here three and half
years, two of which they have worked
for nothing except their keep.
