Every citizen is benefited by
the work carried on by the penny

6erculosis. The fact that the

THE PIONEERS


The tendency in much of our
modern literature is TO exalt pio-
neer life in America. There is a
vlgor and whOlesomeness about the
great open spaces and the sturdy
folk who braved the wilds. As vet
no great epic Of the Montana re-
giOns have been written. Per
haps from our midst someone will
seek to express the pioneer life of
this region.
The members Of the English "
class have agreed to collect source
material from the experiences of

MODERN METHODS AID
INDUSTRIAL employees
General Efficiency Programs Held
to Decrease Production Costs
and Strengthen Morale.

Many Of the larger commercial and
industrial organizations ofNthe Nation
have revolutionized and Ino6ernized
their employment policies in compliance
with their general efficiency programs
and accordingly have decreased produce
ton costs along with elevating and
strengthening the morale of their en-
ployes, the National Home Study Coun-
Gil points out and amplifies its views as
follows:
"A recent survey Of employment and
vocational education programs now be.
ing maintained by the larger CONNER
cial, finance and industrial establish
ments in the United States reveals
drastic changes in these programs, par
ticularly affecting apprentices and new
recruits fresh from schools and colleges.
Formerly, in compliance with time
honored traditions, these classes Of en-
ployes were turned over to the care OF
one or more of the Older hands for
the 'breaking-in' process Of their en-
ployment duties. Later the beginners
and apprentices were left to their own
resources to make whatever progress
might be attainable. This procedure,
OF course, was general liability to the
organization itself and the skilled work.
ers. incidentally 1t was unfair to the
piece worker whose pay check suffer-
ed, as well as to the apprentice or be-
gtnner.
