ANNUAL VOCATIONAL
CONFERENCE BOHEMIAN

The boys in Roosevelt county high
schools who are interested in attend
ing the vocational conference at
Bozeman, and the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific Livestock Judging
Contest to be held the first week in
February have started examining up
on definite points concerning live
stock judging.
1t has been the custom the past
two years for the railroad companies
to furnish the transportation to the
boys to and from Bozeman who are
selected from each high school to
represent their school in the judging
contest. This means that eighteen
boys representing the six high schools
in Roosevelt county will have an OPP
portunity not only to represent their
high school in the judging contest
but also take in the vocational con-
ference, which includes or its pro-
gram some of the best SPEAKERS that
can be obtained il the United States.
The Annual Montana Vocational
Conference has gained the reputation
of being one OF Che best and most
successful and through the efforts
Of M. J. Abbey, the conference has
grown each year until there are now
close to 1900 high school boys at
tending it annually.
The stock judging contest which
was put on by the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific makes it pos
sible for the Roosevelt county boys to
attend the conference, due to the
fact that with the extra large trans
portation cost it would be impossible
to finance the trip of so many boys
from this county. The boys who have
made the trip the past two years re
port a good time both from a recre-
ational standpoint and as a value to
them from an educational point of
view.--D. B. Noble, County Agent.

This is the season when a danger
of fires is greater than ordinary. 1t
is wise to take every precaution to
avoid them by seeing that your
stoves, pipes and chimneys are in
good order and that inflamable ma
terial does not get to near them.
But if a fire does start, turn in an
alarm quickly and in a way that may
be understood.
