was emphatically urged.
Charles Vandenhook Of Bozeman
president Of the Montana Bankers
! ASSOCIATION, pointed cut that dlVerSa'
fled, or equality farming had al
ready done much in the development
of Montana, and that future progress

that program. J. c. Taylor, directol
of the Montana State college exten
sion service, reported upon that or
ganization's activities last year an,
stressed the fact that banks in L
counties of the state had given grea

| Quality" campaign and of junior clu

Sunday at the Old South

Sunday morning at the Old South
church both music and message were
full of inspiration. The music in
cluded anthems by tho choir and
solos by William Perry, w. Frank
Pierce and Mrs. Frank -Babbitt, and
was of unusually fine character.
Mrs. W. z. Bradford was at the or
gan. rfs.
Rev. Mr.. Bradford spoke upon the
challenge of Christ to man and our
FAck of response to it. Mankind TO
Christ are like sheep without a
epherd. Mr.. Bradford used as.
starting point for his sermon the
miracle of Christ's feeding the multi
tude, and his response to the chai-
lenge their hunger made to him. He
cOntrasted it with the doubtful and
selfish attitude of the disciples, who
were all for sending the multitude
away to buy food From this story
as a foundation Mr.. Bradford drew
lessons of practical value to the
Christian of today.
The Sunday school was OF interest
and value. There were opening en-
ercises under the direction of Miss
Lou Buker before the regular ses-
sions of the classes. There was a.
good attendance.
II the evening, Mrs. Gertrude e. E.
Alexander spoke on birds. giving

valse chantee "Kiss-a-Miss" was pre-
scented. The overture "Abu Hassan"
