Community Colleges
Advocated By Moe

M. P. Moe, Montana Education
association executive secretary,
recently stated that the extern
sive establishment of "commun-
ity colleges" in Montana would
result both in a higher level of
education and a saving for the
taxpayer. "By community col
lege, we mean a tWo-year eX-
tension of the present high
school in communities where
the needs warrant it and facili-
ties are adequate" Moe explain
ed. Such schools would provide
vocational pre-college
training
Moe disclosed that a MEA
committee is working now on
the plan. At present, Glendive
and Miles City have such
schools.
The planet Neptune is 80
times farther from the sun than

OUR REDEEMER

OUR REDEEMER
When Jesus was a tiny Babe,
And in the manger bed was
laid;
Three wise men came and did
adore,
And back to Herod went no
more.
When in the temple He was
He said ITO My Fathers
work I'm bound,
When older He did teach
Gods law
Without a single little flaw,
When on the Cross He then
was nailed,
Twas easy to see He had not
failed;
To save the World from hor-
rid sin
By helping men their souls
to win.
ALTERATION
The angels came that Holy
night
Their coming gave a light so
bright,
That men sing of that Holy
day
And of the Christ Who is the
way.
Shepherds came from tend
ing sheep
To adore the Infant mild
and meek
To adore Jesus, their Heaven
ly King
Their love and worship they
did bring.
Wise men too came from afar
Sore trials could not their
Journey mar,
We too each day'can bring
our love
To honor our Heavenly King
above.
