THE RETURN OF THE VIKING
Left the lucky has sailed once more
Over the sullen sea;
Back from the rockbound Vinland
shore
To the orchards of Normandie.
The first Left came with a hundred
men,
AS the Raven boat was blown;
But the second would dice, unhelped,
with death,
And Lindbergh sailed alone.
Lone as cloud in desert sky,
Lone as a burned out star;
A driving speck in the void on high,
Seeking a goal afar.
Only the careless sky above,
And the hungry sea below
Our Left the lucky retraced the trail
Of thousand years ago.
Two weeks ago the name of Charles
A. Lindbergh was known to a few
hundred persons friends,
comrades and aviation fans. Now, it
is the best known-one might almost
say the best loved-name on earth.

Member of Agricultural
College Faculty Visits P'wood

Monday afternoon the Seniors of
the Plentywood high school heard j.
w. Barger, a member of the Montana
State Agricultural College faculty at
Bozeman, give talk on the
opportunities the four state educa-
tional institutions, the University at
Missoula, the Agricultural College at
Bozeman, the School of Mines at
Butte and the Normal at Dillon, have
to offer to the rural students through
out the state.
Mr.. Barger has taught economics
and sociology for six years at the
college at Bozeman where subjects
other than agriculture are also Civ
en-secretarial work, art engineering
and chemistry.
He gave an instructive talk on the
opportunities offered by these four
institutions and distributed pamphlets
decribing the different schools, ask
ing any pupils who were interested
to write to the State University or
other schools for further informa-
ton. He showed by statistics how
nowadays there was a demand for the
college trained person IN preference to
the one with only an average educa-
ton for all kinds of work-that for
the college trained man or woman
there would always be an opening.
Mr.. Barger is in charge of Rural
Community Organized Study work
and is travelling through the state
at the present time giving lectures on
the value of higher education. He al
so at this time is making a study of
County Libraries and of the nine
throughout Montana he believes Sher-
ldan county has one of the finest for
the size of the community it has to
serve. Our county library he SAYS.
is of real value to the rural schools
throughout this section. 1t is his in
tention to make a thorough study of
the Libraries of the state and write a
thesis or bulletin to be distributed
throughout Montana, especially to
those counties where there are no IL
braries, showing them that such in
stltutlons are real necessities in the
education of our children.
