Episc opdl Church
Is Conducting
Church School

The National Council of the
Episcopal Church, together with
the Diocese of Montana, is
sponsoring a Vacation Chruch
school in Hardin, meeting in
the grade school this week and
next, through August 18th.
Operated by two seminary
students in cooperation with
the st. Thomas Episcopal Guild,
the school includes children
from age 4 to IA.
The two seminary students
who received special training
for this work, are John Han
nahS, of Jacksonville, Ohio, a
veteran of the Marine corps,
including the campaigns of
Saipan and Two Jima, and Her
man Page of Marquette, Mich,
veteran of the army, and son
of the bishop of the Episcopal
Diocese of Northern Michigan.
Both attend the Episcopal
Theological school in Cam
bridge, Mass.
Page and Hannahs received
their training in a three-week
session at the National Town
and County Church Institute
in Parkville, Mo-, the Episcopal
church'S training center con-
cerned particularly with the
problems of the church in
small towns and country areas.
The Hardin school is but one
part of a larger program which
includes 1.-THE sending of two
teams of seminary students, one
in the western part of the state,
the other in the eastern part.
The idea behind this program
is that the small town church
requires special type of min
istry for which special training
is required. The Rev. Clifford
l.. Samuelson, Director of the
Division of Town and Country
of the National Council, en-
phasizes that the time has
passed when the small town
churches are merely stepping
stones for ministers moving on
to larger city churches.

RppZing
of the Rivers

Carl Sloan, chairman of the
Publicity committee of the
Big Horn County Chamber of
Commerce, was one who spent
a lot of time and energy col
lecting authentic information
and scouting the Custer Bat
tlefield area for placement of
the new signs recently erected
by the Chamber.
The Indian head in color on
the markers was done by a
noted artist, but for the let
tering, the only person avail
able at the time was an itin-
Grant sign painter who happen
ed to be in this area
On top of all of the other
work, the publicity chairman
had to spend a great deal of
time looking over the painters
shoulder to be sure he didn't
spell Indian "Indin" or histor-
ical with a ok. During MIR.
Sloan'S absence however, the
painter did sneak one over and
spelled attacked "attact."
The lettering on that sign
has not yet been corrected and,
of course in choosing one to
picture as a sample in the
Tribune-Herald last week we
had to choose the one with
that error in spelling.
The markers are doing the
job, however, according to Su-
perintendent E. S. Luce of the
Custer Battlefield. He reports
that the flow of visitors has
increased 10 per cent since the
installation of the signs.
