work. The industrial self help plan is
not only used in connection with the
vocational school but in each Of the
Institutes five schools. A very large
percentage Of the students earn a part
Of their expenses by the discharge Of
specific and responsible duties in one
Of the many industries of the institute.
A wholesale social life is an absolute
essential for the development of a we'll
rounded personality. The Polytechnic
does not leave this influence to chance
circumstances but puts forth the effort
to provide a program of social activities
rich in variety and wholly constructive
of Polytechnic young people that they
have an awful" good time at the Poly
technic all the time and it is not spoil
ed by the guilty conscience of having
gone too far" or "too fast"
Without a sound body there can
neither be a keen mind nor sound NOR
ais. In recognition of these facts the
institute encourages and provides ex-
cellent facilities for all manner Of sports
and athletic contests. Glasses in phsi-
cal education are provided for all stu
dents and especially for those who par
ticipate but little in athletics. The in
stitute maintains a nurse and hospital
rooms on its campus and has a splendid
record Of freedom from sickness or
disease.
That life and all that enters into life
has importance and lasting significance
only as it is in accord with the Chris
tan way of life, is eve lost sight Of at
the Polytechnic. Its whole Ogr Is
built around the goal Of helping young
people to achieve a Christian character
for the purpose of living the most
abundant life possible. This being the
case it is impossible to lose anything OF
permanent value by attendance at the
Polytechnic and it is possible to gain
the most valuable things in life by TAX
ing advantage of its offerings.

the student developed his natural abil-
tiles and achieved that degree OF skill
in n of the major vacations which en-
abled him to enter into that vocation
and make his livelihood thereby. At
the same time a minimum of training
in culture, citizenship, and leadership
was required of each Of these vocation
al students, thus safeguarding then
from being mere machines OF selfish IN
dividualists.
An intergal part of the vocational
plan is the Polytechnic's system Of es-
tablishing and operating various in
dustries which not only make it possible
for the student to pay part Of his edu-
cational expenses by working for the
school, but which give him Fundamental
training in how to work efficiently.

Another dream mate1ialized
when the Billings Polytechnic IN
stitute announced on July l that
1t Would add to its tive regular
schools, already IN operation, a
full four-year college granting
the B. A. and the 3. S. degrees.
To organize and direct the college
the trustees secured DR.. Wendell
S. Brooks, a WeU- knoWn educator
Who received his B. A.. degree
from Yale university in 1908, his
NJ. A. degree from Chicago ami
versity IN 1921, and his Phi. D.
from Northeastern university
IN 1925, as its president.
It will be the particular RESPONSE
bility of DIR. Brooks to select and or
ganize the faculty, which must be COM
posed of men and women who have
earned either their masters or doctors
degree; plan the curriculum Of courses
and supervise the studies of those
students who are candidates for either
the bachelor of arts or the bachelor Of
science degrees.
For evidence of DR.. Brooks ability to
perform this task one need only turn to
his record of training and experience
as an educator.

In answer to the question raised az
to what courses will be offered in the
new four-year college the best reply is
all the usual courses of the four year
college. Some of the departments in
able to take majors are chemistry and
physics, mathematics, psychology. Eng

languages, sociology and history, eco
nomics and business, religion and phil

and printing.
This announcement regarding the
four-year college should be of especial
interest to young people and their
parents throughout this region. The
majority of those who graduate from
high school want to go away to college.

amazingly small percentage of our
young people are getting the education

simultaneously PWA announced its
expenditures were providing jobs for
nearly 10000 persons engaged directly
on the sites and probably twice that
number engaged in industries supplying

educational level of the entire institute.
The Polytechnic, in spite of increased
high school facilities provided by the
state, still continues with its f~our-year
high school becat6e a careful survey
shows that over so per cent OF our
eighth grade graduates are not receiv-
ing this training. The reason being for
the most part an economic one. For a
large percentage of these young people
there are not adequate high school
facilities at home and most of them
cannot afford to 60 away.
Through a system of self -help in its
industries, the Polytechnic makes it
possible for these young people to get
what is most valuable to them and a
prerequisit of good citizenship.
Realizing that IS per cent of our
high school graduates never enter COL
lege the Polytechnic includes to the full
limits allowed by the state board of
education, enrolment in a large num-
Der of vocational courses so that its
high school graduates are prepared, not
to enter upon some worthwhile vocation
with the developed ability and skill
necessary to make a success in that
vocation. The academy is fully &C.

ISOLATION Of Secondary Schools anc
Colleges.
The founders of the Billings Poly.
technic institute were pioneers in the
application of a new educational theory
namely, that the best and most effective
kind of education is learning by doins
and that instead of education beins
solely a preparation for life it should be
life at its best.
Furthermore the founders of the in.
stitute were in agreement on the chic.
detectives of education as being four il
number: % to train for citizenship
ca to train for leadership, ca to trair
for vocational or professional skill, a,
to train for abundant living.
Having these four major objective.
the question naturally arose, what d.
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1934-08-31

we mean by citizenship, leadership,
skill. and abundant living? What will
characterize the individual student who
achieves these detectives? After care
full consideration it was concluded that
the kind of citizenship society needed
was Christian citizenship; that the kind
motivated by Christian principles; that
the kind of skill we needed was skill
which would not be used to prey upon
or destroy the other fellow, but skill
in making use of natural resources fol
the advancement of society. When it
came to a definition of abundant liv-
ing it was clearly seen that the Chris
tian philosophy of life was the only one
which gave absolute assurance that life
for the one who practiced it, would be
abundant.
Thus. in order to achieve its objec-
| tives the Polytechnic was established as
a Christian institution.
Being a private institution supported
by private gifts from interested friends
the Polytechnic has been free to fol.
! low out its ideals in the mapping Of
| that kind of an educational program
which really meets the needs of the
young people in this region.
Realizing more than so per cent Of
our eighth grade graduates cannot, will
not, and should not, go on into a high
| school course Of study which is design
ed to achieve but n purpose, namely
prepare its recipients to enter college
the Polytechnic has maintained ar
| academy in which there was a maxi.
mum of vocational training but which
| still met the minimum requirements d
the Montana state board of education
and the North Central association.
For the benefit Of those students who
would not and should not enter TIT
high school at all, the institution ha.
operated a school of vacations wherein

al background which the state intended
they should have. Recent statistics
made available by the Montana state
board of education show that out of
II, o young people who graduate from
the eighth grade in Montana less than
5000 finish high school. Out of these
5000 who finish high school far less
than 1000 enter our state institutions
Of higher learning. Allowing for the
relatively small number Of u young
people who go outside the state for
their advanced training and also grant,
ing that as many as 500 young people
enter commercial and vocational
schools of various types, there are still
only $500 out of a possible 5000 young
people who are going beyond high
school with their education.
As has been the case from the be-
ginning, the Polytechnic is still vitality
interested in these young people who
are not receiving their rightful educa-
tional heritage. It was primarily this
situation and the desire to meet this
need which led to the founding Of the
Polytechnic institute.
Due to its unique and progressive
system of establishing and maintaining
various industrial enterprises right in
connection with its course of study the
Billings Polytechnic institute is able to
give employment to a large number Of
students in the form Of working schol-
arships. These working scholarships
run as high as $500 in value and once
earned they assure the holder that he
or she will get at least one year more
of advanced educational training.
Extensive funds donated by friends
and supporters Of the institute make
it possible to grant cash scholarships
and fellowships to students of outstand-
ing ability and exceptional promise. A
limited number of student loans are
available for those students who appear
to be most deserving. Tuition rates, lab
oratory fees, text books, board and
room, and other expenses are kept at
the minimum so that all who enter
' may have equal opportunities. There
