COUNTY UNIT LAW ~ opiaAr,ou


ference at Bozeman Miss Keeney o
Cascade County explained how thu
Icounty Unit Law had operated in hel
county. The law was passed March
18th, and it was necessary to present
a petition before April 80, asking fol
it's adoption, yet in spite of the brie1
time, it was adopted in Cascade Co
and many have been watching with
interest to see whether the system
would work as well in Montana as il
had In the other twenty-three states
in which the system prevails.
| Miss Keeney stated that the law
worked out satisfactorily in her coun-
ty and had equalized the school faci-
lities in every district.
The budget in Cascade County last
year showed that 167 children were
without school, while under County
Unit law this year provision had been
made for all of these children.
The length of term has been increas-
ed to nine months of school for every
child in Cascade County. A minimum
salary of s100 is paid which has made
it possible to secure better teachers,
while non-attendance was reduced
from 100 to 13 during the first two
months. Miss Keeney also pointed out
the fact that the business manage
ment had improved, since trustees
now take stock of their needs by
submitting budgets which are care
fully planned.
In brief, under the County Unit
law in Cascade County, school has
been provided for 1877 children not in
school last year, the length of term
has been increased to nine months in
all districts, a uniform minimum sal
ary of 500 is paid better business
has resulted, and the
special levy for maintenance is TX
mills.
Among the resolutions presented at
The Conference, the following relating
20 County Unit was passed:
Whereas, The sixteenth legisla-
i've assembly, as result Of the un-
ted efforts of the school people of |
he state of Montana. passed an opt
onal county unit law; and.
Whcreas, The state OF Montana has |
1000 children not provided with
Ichool facilities; 10,603 children in |
hort term schools of less than six |
months, and 33,60O retarded children |
lue largely to short. terms; and,
3 Whereas, We have the county Unit |
aw. in successful operation in one
ounty and large number Of other
ounties plan to bring about an ele- |
ton this spring; and,
Wheseas, We believe that the coun-
Y unit law in operation in every Co.
a the state of Montana is the only
olutibn of the above mentioned in
qualities in educational opportuni-
es fbr our children, as we'll as the
My way in which to eqtIllize the
urde4s of taxation;
Be It therefore resolved, That\we.
le county superintendents of NE
ate Of Montana, lend our aid in every
ay possible to the campaigns thiB
,rine and to the counties which arp |!
orkfng out the law during the conf /.
e year, and that we stand unitfd
rec behind any proposed Legislation
sFgned to strengthen minor wSak-
,sses in the county unit law at the

It Is a curious fact that many auto
mobile owners pay no attention
whatever to their universal joints.
The neglect Of one Of the vital parts
OF a car IS partly due to the mac
cesslble position OF the ordinary uni
versal joint and partly to the fact
that the trouble It causes is often at
rlbuted to other sources.
After a car has been run about
5000 miles an unpleasant rattle and
vibration often becomes noticeable
There Is freuuntly a severe back
lash. which strains and shocks the

ize that these troubles are mainly
due TO neglect in lubricatlng this

Our Inheritance.
First, the Gentiles are now "felow
heirs" with the Jews. In the Old
Testament it was shown that the Gen
tiles would some day be blessed
through Israel as the channel, the
Gentiles taking subordinate place;
now 1t appears that in this taspensa-
ton the Gentiles are to be blessed side
by side with the Jews, as fellow heirs.
Moreover, the inheritance is differ
ent from that especially promised to
Israel, who looked for bursting barns
as the reward of righteousness and ex-
pected to inherit the earth. Now, we
are blessed with all spiritual blessings
