Governor is Told
Men Of 163rd Will
Be Given Relief

HELENA-Every possible consid-
Grafton will be given to the return
of individual members of the 163rd
infantry from service in the South
Pacific, Secretary of War Stimson
assured Gov. Sam c. Ford.
Governor Ford had urged Stimson
to grant the members time to re-
turn to the continental United
States on furlough and leave.
The necessity for an adequate
rotational policy is fully realized by
the war department and careful
thought has been given to the
adoption of one which will achieve
the greatest good for the greatest
number" Stimson said.
The rotation of entire units does
not accomplish this. During any ex-
tended period of time the person.
mel of any n unit changes to such
an extent that the varying lengths
of service of the individuals therein
makes the return of the unit as a
whole inequitable. Accordingly, a ro-
rational policy has been established
based upon the return of individu-
ais to be selected by the theater
commander after considering the
physical condition, length of serv-
ice and overseas and type of duty

problem of the teacher in every
rural and graded school, said DR.
Charles Dean of the Eastern Mon
tana Normal school at Billings. spe-
cial speaker at the institute held in
Glasgow Saturday and attended by
80 Valley county teachers.
DR.. Dean emphasized the necessity
of individual attention to the needs
of each pupil ON the part OF the
teacher. Certain skills, such as the
multiplication tables. must be mas
tered 100 percent by all pupils. he
said.
He told the teachers to teach the
skills first, then give opportunity to
practice them in activities. The prof.
ect method, in which the pupil was
expected to acquire skills through
his activities, has been found in
adequate and is dead. he said.
Mrs. Agnes Wiggenhorn, assistant
state superintendent of public in
struction, brought greetings from
Miss Elizabeth Ireland, state super
intendent, to the institute, which met
in two sessions, one for rural teach
ers at the county courtroom,

ers Of val bonds may turn bonds
into cash by presenting them at any
commercial bank which has quail
fled for the service, according to
word received from William H.

Montana wal finance committee. A
simplified redemption procedure was
believed advisable because of the
huge increase in the number of war
bondholderS, Mr.. BARLEY said. Both
Glasgow banks will be qualified to
make redemptionS.
The treasury department continues
to urge purchase of all bonds pos
Sible and urges purchasers not to
cash bonds unless there is an emer-

policy has been instituted merely as
a convenience for those who must
cash bonds.
