Plans for School
Opening Under Way;
To Start Sept. 8

With Browning public schools
opening Tuesday. September s,
Supt. K. W. Bergan is busy with
important details. dominant of
which is the placing of teachers.
The town problem of securing
teachers, he said. was with little
difficulty, since the two vacancies
that have existed this year have
been satisfactorily filled. In rural
schools. however. filling of exist
ing vacancies is still problem.
One of the local vacancies was
created in Robert Ostrum, social
science teacher and band instruc-
Tor. failing to return. This year
he will be engaged in the La
Seur. Minnesota. schools. His
place will be filled by Vernon 2.
Morrison of Culbertson, Montana.
He will also help as athletic
coach, Supt. Bergan said.
Filling Reuben Huss' place as
mathematics instructor will be
John e. Kershaw.
With a reduced load i n the
second grade. the years vacancy
created in the absence of Mrs.
Lottie Bond. who has b e e n
granted a years leave of absence
to be with her husband, who is
employed in a defense project
in North Idaho there viii! be no
replacement
Between Is and 20 per cent of
last years enrolment will be the
result of circumstances of war,
according to Supt. Bergan. This
is due to the fact that a consid.
cradle number of families have
left for coastal and other points
where defense projects are being
carried on.

feet
Jesus revealed himself by the
scars, the nail pierced hands and
feet. Revealed Christian sufferings
make Jesus known to men today.
Today is Americas opportunity to
express itself in Christian suffering.
v. 41-43. And while they yet
believed not for joy, and wondered,
he said unto them, Have ye here any
meat? And they gave him piece
of a broiled fish, and one of honey
comb. And he took it and did eat
before them. In this hurried con-
ference some provision, evidently
had been made for simple meal.
For Jesus to participate in eating
would be furthur proof of his
identity. There was here also that
fellowship which is to characterize
his disciples" They believed not for
joy suggests that Christ's being
with them again seemed too good to
be true. May we not well say the
same thing.
V. A. "And he said unto them,
These are the words which l spake
unto you, while was yet with you,
and all things must be fulfilled,
which were written in the laws of
Moses, and in the prophets and in
the psalms, concerning me. Jesus
calls attention to the fact that the
predictions that he had made Of
his own death and resurrection
were not fulfilled. Besides, these
very truths We're recorded in the
Old Testament with which they
ought to have been familiar. We
ought to know the Scriptures better.
V. As. "Then he opened their
understanding, that they might
understand the scriptures. He ex-
planned the scriptures so they could
understand. There is wealth in
the Word after which we need to.
seek, gaining all knowledge possible
concerning them.
V. 46. "And said unto them,
Thus it is written, and thus it be-
hooved Christ to suffer, and rise
from the dead the third day"
Christ's suffering and death were
in the plan of God. So is our death
in his plan.
v. At. "And that repentance
and remission of sins should be
preached in his name among all
nations beginning in Jerusalem"
Here is stated the purpose of
Christ's coming to earth. Our part
is to witnesss to these facts-remis-
sion of sins, repentance for sin-the
program for the world.

tions in organizing for defense.

The Risen Christ and His Dis
ciples, Luke 24:3348, for Sunday
June IA.
Jesus sought his disciples tC
prove his identity and to encourage
them to be good witnesses.
v. 33 "And they rose up the same
hour, and returned to Jerusalem,
and found the eleven gathered to-
gether, and them that were with
him." The two men to whom Jesus
made himself known On their way
to Emmaus sought the disciples to
give them the news of the resur-
rected Christ. Note that they were
good witnesses.
v. "a. Saying, The Lord is risen
indeed and hath appeared to
Simon" Peter, too, was witness
of the risen Christ since he had
been honored in having seen the
resurrected Lord. Peter never lost
faith, but he had lost his cour-
age; he had new experience in
which faith was increased and
courage restored.
v. 35. "And they told what
things were done in the way, and
how he was known of them in
breaking of bread" Christ so inter-
preted the Scriptures and revealed
His life that there could be no mis-
take about Him.
". 36. "And as they thus spake,
Jesus himself stood in the midst
of them, and saith unto them,
Peace be unto YOU" Likely the dis
cciples feared their lives might be
taken; hence they were gathered
behind closed doors Jesus was able
to appear in their midst without
the door being opened, since He in
some manner was more spirit than
before. Note that He was seeking
them than they were seeking Him
it is always SO.
v. 81. But they were terrified
and frightened, and supposed that
they had seen a spirit" Here was
a great mystery surprise-an
unexplainable fact-an experience
of great sorrow turned into great
joy.
". 38. "And he said unto them,
Why are ye troubled? and why do
thoughts arise in your hearts?"
These questions indicated the
groundlessness of their fears. Jesus
would not have His disciples worry
His grace and strength is sufficient
for any event.
v. SO, 40. Behold my hands and
my feet, that it is myself handle
me and see; for spirit hath not
flesh nor bones, as We see me have.
And when he had thus spoken.
He showed them his hands and his

SOLDIER EXPRESSES HIS AP-
PROBATION FOR COOK

Dear Mr.. Durbin: My first let
ter for some time so will write
everybody at once. Little can be
said about the trip made so rapid
ly from Oklahoma, except my
flight to Cleveland from Oklahoma
City was one of speed and thrills
having hit part of a tornado, as we
were on our way to Chicago. Then
to spend a few short days in Ohio
and rush to Fort Jackson, South
Carolina, to take up my new duties
as second lieutenant.
The work is fine no end to it:
the weather is fine-too much of it:
these southern cities are wonderful
too far away; South Carolina is
fine, but built too far from Ohio.
Outside of these butts | have one
comment to make. The nights here
are wonderful but disgustingly
short because of that late class and
early alarm.
Forward" that's our motto, and
you should see us go. It's breath
taking--I mean it takes all we have.
Columbia is fine army town, To-
Gated just five miles from the fort
where it can be reached by bus or
taxi easily. Saturdays just before
pay day are marked by the scarcity
of soldiers moving about in town.
Just wait until next Saturday. Ev-
cry soldier free from duty or re-
strictions will be shopping in Co
lumbia. I'm just wondering il IL
will work the same way with travel
down here. Everyone has plenty
of gasoline now and rides every
where. Perhaps by end of the six
week period over which his ration
card is good, more men will be
walking. New rationing cards will
be like pay checks in an army
camp except men just quit walking
and start driving once more. Really
the gas rationing is working very
nicely. The average driver gets
nearly five gallons per week. Much
to his surprise he can do on that
amount without walking. just
using his head.
Do I like cooking? Just when II
is to be sampled-not the cooking
proper. 1t happened that a very new
method Of teaching officers how
to manage 'smess" halls was devised
recently.I came under that new
system where each officer went to
class for theory of cooking all morn
ing and actually cooked the evening
meal in the afternoon. This sounds
good doesn't it? It is, but the
worst is yet to come. We were to
eat our own cooking. ParkerhOuse
, rolls my own first dish and I just
rushed the life right out of them.
F, The longer they set the flatter they
went so we "heaved" them into the
oven That didn't help them one
bit. We ''chalk"that one up DO
experience. We are all we'll and
happy after eating one of our meals
each day for week so we think
/ they must not have been so bad.
Well just appreciate the cooks
job when they prepare food for
! 200 men.
| This school will soon end and
regular duties will start once more
Regular duties are the most stren-
uous, but more interesting than try
ing to cook and l do mean trying :.
