and did not speak. Steve Mar
mon of the Roosevelt school
spoke on "Can Farmers Afford to
Pay for Better Educational Con-
ditions?"
Bessie Hagen Of Waska dis
cussed Farmers Should Make a
More Extensive Use of the Infor-
nation Published by the Govern
ment and State College,.
Charles Taylor of Golden Valley
was awarded first on the subject:
Inventions Have Affected Scien-
tific Farming.
These talks could have been
much better. The speakers only
used one-fourth Of the two min
utes allowed. Their voices were
pitched too low for outdoor speak
ing. They didn't show the train
ing that was shown in the dram
atizations. We need more practice
in public speaking in the rural
schools. This year we set aside
a period a week in each program
for literary programs. This SEIZED
ule, if carefully followed, will
show results in our Volt meet
about two years from now.
The music drills were very
good. Volt, Wide Awake, Day,
Dry Fork and Victory were the
contestants. The violins of Volt,
the flags and trimness of the Day
school, the pleasing harmony of
Victory and the future bosses OF
Wide Awake we're all considered
Dry Fork couldn't be beat
en-. Once again Dry Fork won the
song. These youngsters can sing
because they do sing every
chance they get. No school day
should go by without a song by
he children. Some of our schools
backward in music because
n the past teachers have allow
I'D the song books to accumulate
/ thick layer of dust.
The band concert was enjoyed
~ all. Mr.. Simon had both bands.
The junior band interested many.
Volt had the best B class band
n the state of Montana to fur
lish the music. Did the people j.
appreciate this music? They sure :
y did. Did you see those heap
ng plates that we're handed out
0 the band members? On behalf
f the band members / wish to
hank all who furnished dinner ,

Volt met Roosevelt in the last "

No wonder the Dry Fork oe
