On Friday afternoon before his
crucifixion, Jesus, with his discip-
les arrived at Bethany, having
come up that day afoot from Jer-
icho over the steep and rocky
road which in Is miles makes
climb of 5000 feet. The Jewish
sabbath began at sunset and was
doubtless spent quietly in the home
Of Lazarus, whom Jesus had rails
ed from the dead, After sunset
on Saturday, Jesus was given the
supper during which he was an

his burial. On Sunday morning ne
made him triumphal entry into

BEET
BACKED

Approval of action of the
Western Beetgrowers Association
in encouraging the utmost in
sugar beet production was
voiced today by officials of Mon
tanans, Inc, the state chamber
of commerce.
I'VE are planning a huge pro-
gram for construction of ships,
planes, tanks, guns and ,ammu-
nition," officials said, New fac
tories must be constructed. We
are training several million men
and other millions are required
to man the munitions factories.
But we should not overlook the
fact that food as well as mu-
n1tlons Is required to maintain
the forces mentioned. Sugar is
one of our most essential foods.
Three things are necessary
to the utmost contribution of
the sugar industry to war. First
farmers should prepare to plant
every acre of beets the sugar
factories can handle. Second.
professors should be given any
needed assistance in securing
materials and equipment for
placing existing plants in con-
dition to process a record crop
OF beets in 1912. Third. dis
cuSsion should be held on the
possibilities for construction of
new processing factories or for
relocation Of existing plants in
1943. While materials and
equipment are not available at
present, war conditions may
change. More sugar may be
the most vital requirement to-
morrow"
