Tells Of Surprise
Over Advocacy of Prayer.

To the Editor of The Star
Thanks and congratulations are due
to your paper and to David Lawrence,
for his recent column of last week ad-
vocating that Government agencies de-
vote some time to prayer for guidance
in choosing their policies and carrying
out their activities in the days to come.
We need such advice and whether or
not 1t Is taken, am sure 1t will set
few people to thinking, at least. I am
glad one columnist thought it worth
while to devote his entire space to it
on a weekday, and that one news
paper permitted 1t. I was astonished to
realize how unusual 1t seemed.

Successful Public Speaking

Successful Public Speaking
This is an era of public speak
ing. In every city, town and viii
lage, men and women in all walks
of life are participating actively
in the life of the community
through membership in some club
- or organization. Many intelli-
gent persons sit silent in meet
ings because of their lack of self
confidence. Our 32-page pubh-

speaking was written to help the
average person overcome this
nervousness and to develop poise
and confidence. To secure your

Better Foods
Campaign Being
Worked Out

~. S. Needs Us Strong-Eat MI
1ritional Food is an important new
war slogan and one with which ev-
eryone will soon be familiar. said
Mrs. Dexter Shaurette, Lincoln
County nutrition chairman. The
First National Nutrition Conference
was called by President Roosevelt
in Washington last May where the
ground work was laid for a nation
wide campaign to bring about bet
fer eating habits throughout the
country as a means of improving
health. The slogan with symbol
and set of food rules, which were
developed by the Office of Defense
Health and Welfare Services as a
part of a national nutrition pro-
gram, will be found on posters APP
pearing in public places all over
town.
The Lincoln Country Nutrition
committee is cooperating in the ma
tional program and is sponsoring
a number of projects designed to get
people in this community to eat for
health One of their first purposes
is to try to reach as many people
as possible with information on the
kinds of food to eat in order TO
best supply every day nutritlonal
needs.
The first project of the commit
tee was the canning demonstration
held last Monday at the Libby high
school where 95 women from all
parts of the county learned the ex-
citing new methods of canning
where all nutritive value is retained.
1t is hoped these women will spread
what they heard throughout their
neighborhoods SO those unable to
attend may also profit in better cam
ming for this season. Girl Scouts,
Fern collars. Gwen Holman. and
Mary Alice Farris capably tended
youngsters for the afternoon demon
stration.
The committee heartily endorsed
the local school lunches and it is
reported that decided benefits to
school work resulted from the add
ed nourishment from milk and hot
soup which were available to chill
dren.
Glasses in nutrition for home
makers and all others interested in
learning about how to eat for
health are now being planned al
though they are not expected to
meet until early fall. A large en-
rollment is anticipated for these
studies and it is hoped they will
create great enthusiasm in i'm
proving nutrition in Lincoln County.
Another activity of the County
Committee is stimulating the sale
and use of enriched flour and bread.
The committee estimates that ap-
proximately 100 per cent of the
bread and flour now being sold in
The Western news. [volume] (Libby, Mont.) 1933-current, 1942-06-25
s enriched.

Lincoln County is enriched.
Methods of using food products
which are plentiful in this COM
munity are Being studied and publ
cized as part of the general program
for conserving food.
Some of the activities of the
County Committee are just being
developed. Others have not been
started. But Mrs. Shaurette states
that every effort will be made to
help improve the health of our
country residents through spreading
the gospel of eating for health,
Members of the Lincoln County Nj
triton Committee are: ]. A. Krall,
A. A. Wood. Mrs. Arthur Sheldon,
Mrs. Left Johnson, Mrs. Arthur
Neils, Mrs. Jessie Fagerberg, and

Urges Cut in County
And City Budgets
CONTINUED from Page d

4 No additional water, sewer, or
light improvements except as may
be necessary for the preservation
of the health and safety of the COM
munity.
Repair and maintenance should be
fully taken care of; debt obligations
promptly met; cash reserves built
up. fire defenses completely pro-
vided for; public safety not neg
lected; and essential public services
adequately financed
SCHOOL BUDGETS
Preliminary school budget forms
have been in the hands of school
district clerks since June LIST. On
these forms county superintendent
have. shown the expenditures for
last year, the approved budget for
the current year and the estimated
revenues from state and county
sources
The trustees will meet June 22nd
at the time and place indicated in
the required published notice and
prepare preliminary elementary and
high school budgets. Teachers have
already been placed under contract
and increased salaries have been al
lowed to many in the lower paid
groups As salaries on the average
account for about 10 per cent of the
cost of public schools the opportun-
ity for making substantial reduc-
ton in total expenditures is rather
limited
In conformity with the budget act,
the trustees have asked the taxpay-
ers to meet with them on June 22nd
and advise with them concerning
proposed expenditures for the COM
ing year. Tax collections have been
exceptionally good. more state mon
ely has been received than was ex
pected, reserves are the highest in
the history of public school finance
and there is every indication that
the cash balance in nearly all the
districts and high schools will be
unusually large. There will no
doubt be some resistance against
any reduction in expenditures in
spite of the war time necessity for
saving all possible tax dollars for
war purposes.
