GUARD LADIES MEET
TO PLAN FOR ARMORY
N N

The ladies OF the Nationa.
Guard met Monday evening
March 4th, to make plans for
assisting the mess section of Co
A in preparations for the dinner
that will be served at the armory
dedication on April 7th.
Tentative plans call for a menu
of roast beef and roast lamb,
mashed potatoes and gravy, seal
Hoped corn, salad, coffee and rolls.
1t was decided that roast lamb
be included on the menu as a
support for the campaign for use
of locally produced food products.
1t was felt that the National
Guard, being a community organ
ization, should support this worth
while campaign.
The committee will contact local
service and fraternal organiza-
tons for loan of tables, chairs
and silverware.
The cadets of the Civil Air Pa
troll will assist the ladies with
the serving of the dinner.
Tickets for the dinner will be
sold for $1.50. Sales will start
later in the month. The ladies
urge all to plan to attend the
dinner and see the dedication GER
emonies of the new armory.

TREES ARE


At some time recently nearly
everyone has watched a new SUBJ
division being opened. AT firs1
glance this seems all to the good
new homes for those who have
been living in city apartments
yards and grass for children who
have been playing on pavement
before. Certainly no one car
quarrel with the need for new
houses.
But there is a problem connect
ed with these new developments,
In nearly every case the first
move is to bring in bulldoZers
and clear the ground of every
living thing, removing every tree
and shrub denuding the ground
of every blade of grass or scrap
of growing matter.
This is particularly true in
areas offering only small yard
space. Contractors give various
reasons for this destruction -
more area for trucks to maneuv-
er, lots can be smaller, houses
can be more uniform. From the
builders point of view, these may
be arguments bearing some weight
but all too often the prospective
buyer is not taken into consider
alton.
l have watched areas being
swept clear, and months later
seen home owners desperately
planting tiny trees and shrubs,
nursing them along often in poor
soil and hoping that within five
or ten years they may be tall
enough to cast a little shade in
summer. l have remembered with
sadness the large beautiful oaks
and naples that had grown there
for decades before being ruthless
ly uprooted. How much better it
would have been if ever a few
of these lovely shade trees had
been left, breaking the monotony
of the scene and lending dignity
and grace to even a small bOxy
house that otherwise could e
semble nothing so much as a
packing crate.
Our home is fortunate enough
to have been built, along with
some so others, by a builder who
loved trees and was astute
enough to know their additional
value to any property. AS a result
only trees that actually Interior
ed with construction were re-
moved, and each house has a
protecting screen giving spacious
ness and privacy. There r more
than a dozen oaks dumped about
our front yard, trees that would
have taken at least is years to
grow if we had planted them
after moving in. In summer cool
green shadows shelter the house
from the sweltering Virginia sun,
and in winter they offer protec-
ton to the birds that cluster
around our feeding tables.
Between our house and the

Plans Set For
Statewide Rural
School Committee

Helena Plans for the forma-
ton of a statewide Committee
for Rural Schools were announ-
ced this week by Harriet Miller,
Superintendent of Public I%nstruc-
ton.
Positive steps must be taken
to find solutions to the special
problems facing our rural schools,
and ] believe that people who
are closely concerned with rural
education can be of great assis-
lance in meeting these problems
Miss Miller said.
"Two-thirds of all the elemen-
tary schools in Montana are one-
room and two-room schools, and
in many of these schools the
problems of teacher supply, school
facilities and transportation are
acute.
For these reasons / am ap-
pointing a representative COM
mlttee from our rural areas to
survey the needs and make rec
concentrations" she said.
Names of appointees to the
committee r to be announced
soon.

That very morning I decided
to see one of my best friends,

discussed IT several times. I
trusted him completely and
wanted his advice. l called his
telephone number. His firm had
48 extension phones. The opera

prise when I heard him laugh
ing with the leader Of our COM

outwitting me and my clients.

Susan Marie Wickman, one O.

With the help of the physical
therapist at the Great Falls Eas-
ter Seal Center, Susan is showing
great Improvement in her gait
and general physical condition.
Susan, when first seen by the
speech therapist, could not speak.
She is now talking in single
words and with continued ther-

Jens Jensens
To Celebrate
5Oth Anniversary

Mr.. and Mrs. Jens Jensen's
50th wedding anniversary will be
observed next Wednesday, March
20 by their family and many
relatives and friends at a cele-
bration in the Pella Lutheran
church beginning at 7:30 p. m.
Jens and Sophia were married
at Kenmare, N. D., shortly after
they arrived from their native
Denmark. They then came to
Sidney together with other Danish
newcomers and took up home
steads in the Bronson community,
where their farm, now the home
of their youngest daughter, Inger
and her husband Aril Sunwall,
is situated.
In 1943 they moved to Sidney
and now reside at 211 : End Ave.
S. ".
Being loyal Lutherans they be-
came charter members of the
Pella church in 1908, but trans
ferred to the Bronson church or
ganization in 1912, and then back
to Pella in 1889.
Mr.. Jensen has served both
church and community in vari-
Gus ways during their so years
of residence here. Their three
daughters also have their homes
here. Nora, as Mrs. Fred Iver-
sen; Ethel, as Mrs. Jacob Miller,
and Mrs. Sunwall. A son Henry
lives in Minneapolis and is ex-
pected home for the wedding, to-
gether with his family.

ones or either side are strips
only about 80 or 40 feet wide,
but they have been untouched,
are full of tall oaks and pines
swaying above dogwood, wild
azalea, laurel and rhodedendren
that add their brilliance to the
spring scene.
ALI these advantages were ours
when we bought the house, and
yet there was no additional ex-
pense to the builder. All the
neighborhood lots are less than
an acre, yet none of us feel
crowded. And from a purely
practical viewpoint, all these
homes T worth more financial
ly because the builder had some
imagination.
Everyone loves trees, yet too
many potential home owners are
forced to purchase houses stuck
up in bare fields because they
can find nothing else. How much
better if the developers and
builders would plan their houses
with more care and thought for
the future. 1t is not difficult to
save and protect the better trees
on any land rather than remove
all of them.
Perhaps the day will come
when the Importance and neces-
sity of leaving these trees is
known to all. But that time can
be fastened only by concerted eff
fort on the part of those who
will be purchasing the new
houses. If they insist upon it,
builders will find it to their
profit to take such action.
