gram 1t has been carrying since Oc-
tober of 1910, announced DR.. A. J. NJ

of aircraft, 6 hours; secondary naviga-
ton and radio, 30 hours; aerodynamics
and aircraft, SO hours; power plants,
AZ hours. In addition to this auditing,
special instruction will be given in

Much of the training will be with
special equipment Montana State COL
lege has for this type of course This
includes a complete airplane. several
engines, new Hagner planetarium and
bubble sextants for celestial naviga-
ton, and similar equipment needed
for thorough instruction in the fun
damental aeronautical courses neces-
sary to graduate students as certified
ground school instructors
The civil aeronautics administration
is urging eligible men and women to
enroll Immediately, SO training car
! be completed during the summer
months. It suggests that enrollees be
persons not meeting the age or physi-
cal requirements for active duty. 4

gests that prospective students con-
tact him at once so necessary prelim-
inaries can be completed quickly.

War Courses Prove Popular
With Summer Students at "

An increased enrolment in war
courses and a shortage Of males,
clearly indicated the effect of war
upon education as students registered
for Montana State universitys first
10-week summer quarter. Regular
classes of 6 and 10 weeks duration
have begun.
AeronauticS courses, c h m try
physics and home economics drew the
heaviest registration, with a normal
number of students signing for mathe-
mates courses. The new workshop in
education. designed to guide teachers
and administrators in placing their
own school curricula on a wartime
basis, and supervised by President E.
o. Melby, also met all expectations,
DR.. G. D. Shallenberger, director of
the summer session, stated.
THE enrolment is somewhat lower
this summer than last year, but the
student body is more earnest and seri-
ous." Shallenberger said. students
seem to be interested in courses which
will help them be of more service
in the armed forces or in civilian
emergency activities"
only aggressive and dynamic edu-
cation can prevent q series Of future
wars" DR.. Melby said in welcoming
address to summer school students.
If every American is to make an
about effort in this war, education
must overcome its timid, complacent
attitudes" said DR.. Melby, who ex-
planned how teachers and educators
may make significant contribution
to the American war effort.
"A teacher needs as much courage
to make an educational program dy-
manic as does the soldier or pilot

clared.

Montana Vulnerable
To Japanese Attack,
MISSIONARY Asserts

Montana is the one vulnerable spot
in the United States for a Japanese
attack" the Rev. w. A. Ecles, super
intendent of the Nazarene Rocky
mountain district, stated before an
audience of 200 church members and
visitors who assembled at the River
side park in Laurel to attend the an
nual camp meeting and assembly of
the church.
The Rev. Mr.. Ecles spent Is years
in the orient as a missionary and gov
eminent school teacher. In developing
his topic he pointed out how the Japa-
nese have laid definite plans for the
gradual infiltration Of the Aleutian
Islands. There will be no mass attack,
he prophesies, until one by one the
japanese have installed themselves in
the Islands. Then they could come
through the passes Of the Rocky
mountains, into Alberta and thence
into the unprotected vast lands of
Montana and wyoming, with the view
of dividing the country.
As chaplain in the japanese ar
mics. the Rev. Mr.. Ecles was in q
position to gain much valuable infor-
nation. He states that the japanese
government is in possession of blue
prints of all strategic points in Mon
tana. including the Fort Peck dam.

girl ensemble
Direct from Madison Square Garden
in New York the Eris troupe. the larg-
est and most colorful group Of bare
back riders, will come to the North
Montana. State fair. Their name in
show business dates back to Napoleon's
day when they had much the same
kind of breath taking act with aero
battles performed from the backs of
their running horses.
Another attraction is the beautiful
presentation which will be given by
Irene Vermillion and her Victor harp
quartet. The attraction will be made

ming the Great Peters dares death at
every performance. Peters during his
act climbs to the top of a towering
rigging about 80 feet in the air. He
then fastens his feet in loops and
walks upside down. At the climax of
his act, he fixes moose around his
neck, then jumps off. His body is halt
ed in the fall by the rope split Sec
ond before he hits the bottom.
A great trend toward comedy is
evident in the show in such acts as
Willie West and McGinty Company,
stars of Ziegfeld Follies. Their act, "a
Billion Building Blunders" is a panic
of laughter 1t represents a building
in the course of construction on the
stage. Through the actions of the four
builders their mistakes make for riot
Gus fun. Other comedy acts are the
Calgary Brothers with something
brand new In funny stuff and Mon
roe Brothers, the bounding bed COM
edians. with bag-full Of tricks.
Other acts shown during the two

ment ever seen at North Montana
State Fair evening show.
The showing of the fireworks will
come directly after the evening show.

year including some up-to-the- minute
war scenes.
