ALL PUPILS
TO RECEIVE
TEETH EXAMS
Countrywide Plan Is Launched
with the Cooperation
of Dentists.

With local dentists cooperating
and the assistance Of Miss Marie
Hall, graduate oral hygenist, a plan
will be launched next week which
has as its final goal a dental exam
ination for every school child in
Valley county.
The plan was announced this week
by Miss Aagot Liam, county health
nurse. She commented on the fact
that one of the greatest cause of
physical disability found in the
army is some type of dental dis
order.
The examinations are aimed to
locate cavities and other conditions
as a guidance to parents in helping
them to make sure their children
will remain well.
All Dentists Helping
Drs. C. A. Clark, c. N. Gray and
K. r. Steffensen of Glasgow IRE
giving their services free, along
with Miss Halls assistance.
The first work will be with Glas-
gov high school pupils, who will be
examined at DR.. Steffensen's office
beginning next week. Each pupil will
be notified in advance as to the
time of his examination.
AS dental defects are found. in
each case, they will be noted on a
card. When the examination is
completed, the dentist or oral hy-
gienist will sign a card and it will
then be mailed to the parents. A
copy of each card will be kept in
the schools.
In the interest of their children,
Miss Liam urges parents to have
teeth cared for as soon as possible
after examination and she will be
glad to consult with parents if, for
any reason. they are not able to
have Slch work done.

Capitol Week Easy Going
LEGISLATURE Is Nearing Finish

lions must be slashed ever further
a job which is to be undertaken
by Joint conference committees af-
ter the senate has acted upon the
bills.
Among bills which failed to get
out of committee in the rush be-
fore transmission day-and there
by died-were measures to halve
the state income tax for the next
biennium and to set a $40 a month
minimum on old age pensions.
The income tax bill, by Sen. John
Campbell. D., Missoula, was passed
by virtually unnoticed. Campbell
made no effort to bring it onto the
floor of the upper chamber. The at
tempt made by Rep. Ole S. Gunder-
son D., Cascade TO blast it out
of the appropriations committee
failed by a vote of SO to "a.
Other important bills killed last
week included:
A bill approving the Yellowstone
compact for division of the waters
of the Yellowstone river and its
tributaries between the states OF
Montana, Wyoming and North Da-
kota.
A measure to reduce the counties
participation in old age security and
other welfare payments from 1873
to 8ls percent.
A proposed constitutional amend
ment separating the bureau of la
Dor from the state department OF
agriculture, labor and industry.
A bill to make the state fish
and game commission an elective
instead of an appointive body.
No Convention System
A proposal that party conventions
be allowed to endorse candidates
before the primary election, their
designation to show on the primary
ballot.
A bill calling for a "pay-as-you-
CO. income tax plan similar to the
Ruml plan which is under consider
alton by the federal government.
Proposed constitutional amend
ments which would allow the gov
ernor to temporarily suspend state
officers suspected of fund pecula-
tions and to revise the method of
appointment of members of the
board of equalization.
Gov. Ford vetoed one bill, which
have reduced the basis for
assessment of bank capital from
30 to IS percent of true valuation.
He insisted the banks were no more
entitled to tax relief than other in
dustries, occupations or individuals.
His veto was sustained by the house
by a large majority.

HMENA-The Montana leglsla'
ture today was headed toward ina
adjournment next Thursday witt
only a handful of controversial
bills still on its agenda, although
there we're still many minor meas
ures to be disposed OF.
LEGISLATORS and attaches were
confident the 28th biennial session
probably the most easy-golng in re-
cent history, would reach adjourn
ment with a minimum of overtime
sessions.
Top issues remaining to be acted
upon after last weeks hectic pre-
transmission meetings included two
gambling bills in the senate, Gov.
sam c. Ford's postwar highway con-
struction program, the proposed
financial code of 1943" and a host
of appropriation bills.
Gambling Bills Pass
The two gambling bills passed
the house last week after some OF
the most heated debate thus far.
introduced as revenue measures,
one would legalize slot machines
under local option and the other,
an amendment to the Hickey gamb-
ling law, would license so-called
'pastime' games up to a 25-cent
cash limit on stakes.
Proponents claimed the "pastime"
bill would bring in at least $780,
600 annually and the slot ma
chine bill would increase revenues
by $500, 900. The license money
would go into county poor funds.
The highway construction pro-
gram passed the house with a
minimum of argument. 1t contem-
plates a special election June 8,
at which voters would be asked to
pprove a S10,000,000 debenture
issue, the money to be used to
match federal funds frozen to the
credit of the state for highway
building after the a
The house killed, however, bills
to increase the state gas tax by
one cent and the tax on DIESEL fuel
oil five cents, revenue from which
would have gone to pay off the de-
bentures.
New Financial Setup
The financial code, integral part
of Governor Ford's state reorganiz-
alton plan, also met with little OPP
position in the house. Calling for
establishment of a state department
of finance, under a finance director
to be appointed by the governor,
it would reshuffle the states en-
tire fiscal system.
The governors other main reor-
ganization bill, to step up a state
personnel administration, was less
successful, however. 1t was ''indef-
initely postponed" by the senate
almost as a matter of course. Sen.
Zales N. Ecton, r., Gallatin, who
sponsored the measure, admitted
i've got three strikes or me before
I start" when he arose to advocate
passage of the bill.
The appropriation bills represent
ed long hours of hard work by Rep.
w. Horrigar's house approp-
riations committee, which sought
desperately to keep ALLEGATIONS of
state funds within the bounds of
dropping state revenues in order to
conserve surplus funds for postwar
rehabilitation.

Where Right and Wrong have strongly striven
Our weary hearts must end their search.
No flowers nor words as solace given,
No candle and no hushed church
May peoples blossom on his grave
His candles be the stars,
Our solace be that God, who gave
His only Son, remembers ours,
Who gave his life for a just cause,
Nor faltered at the battles crest.
Nor will VIZ question God because
He took the one we loved the best.
For now he's spared the grimmer part
Battles awful smoke and roar.
Dear God, the ache in every heart
Is just the merest taste of war.
So may peoples flame where a warrior lies
May stars shine down upon his bed
For a soldier never really dies
Unless the cause he loved is dead.
And the Allied cause shall live for aye
While brave men march and dare
To die to speed that happy day
When bells of Freedom fill the air.

Abraham Lincoln told the follow
ing joke on himself, according to
DR.. l.. A. Warren, director of the
Lincoln Foundation at Fort Wayne,
Indiana, in news story published
back in 1895:
Lincoln related the story in a let
ter written on April J., 1888, using
that date as the proper one on which
to tell, in his whimsical way, how
he had been made a fool of. Lin
coin wrote that he had promised a
friend who was to make visit to
Kentucky, that he would marry his
sister if he would bring her back to
Illinois with him. The girl came,
too willingly Lincoln thought, but
nevertheless he proposed to her, al
though he was fearful that she
would accept him. Instead, she re-
fused him fatty. Lincoln concluded
his letter with these words: 10Th
ers have been made fools of by girls,
but this can never with truth be said
of me. I, most emphatically, in this
case, made fool of myself"

taken home with other books to be
studied in the evening, perhaps by
coal oil lamp or old tallow candle,
would be pushed back to the last
one. Then perchance we were too
sleepy and off to bed we would go,
leaving the grammar lesson I'M
studied.
Could we conjugate the verb Ito
love" next day? The chances were
ten to one we could not. We were
not in love anyway, except being
little sweet on the small girl over
on the other side of the room, with
pigtails.
This was the way the conjugation
ran, if we remember it correctly (if
we are wrong, just please tell us
about it): First person, l love; sec
ond person, thou lowest; third per-
son, he loves; plural, first person, we
love; second person, you love; third
person, they love. Seemed very
foolish to us pupils back there, but
the author of the Harvey's text book
took that way of driving home a
point in grammar.
And Harvey did teach many the
simple and parliamentary principles
of the English language. The late
Col. Charles A. Little, eminent
member of the bar here, was wont
to refer to Harvey's Elementary
Grammar in his speeches as a book
he valued highly in his life. The
book was included in the curriculum
of text books in the public schools
of Hagerstown and Washington
County for a number of years, but
was discontinued some IS years ago,
other methods being substituted.
Oh boy! Those nouns, pronouns,
adjectives, verbs, adverbs, etc, in
that little book of years ago! All
hail to that valuable little ancient
volume!
