happy about 1t: for while the in.
tent Of the bureaus educational

children from non-lndians. they
develop as such.
Asst Area Director Reinholt
Brust was quoted as saying the
Bureau is now operating only
five schools on two of Montana's
seven Indian reservations. He
complimented the Indian people
for becoming so educational con.
scious over the past 10 years.
Brust said this has resulted in
an over taxing of many schools.
1T is difficult for the Bureau
to give these children the edu.
cation they should have because
of the increasing number of In.
dian children who are crowdins
existing school facilities"
The Bureau operates Indian
schools at Busby and Birny on

Sherburne Mercantile Entered
By Burglars Twice This Week

Burglars struck twice this week
at the Sherburne Mercantile.
The first attempt was made
early Sunday morning in a foray
that was spoiled when they an.
parently became frightened and
left with only a bag of tools
which they later used in the sec.
ond break.in. Entrance had been
made through a small window in
the side of the building.
The second. and more profitable
burglary. took place early Tues.
day morning at which time they
were more successful in looting
tho place of a 1910 rifle. ammu.
milton. more tools and several
other items that would be easy
to dispose of.
Entrance was made this time
by breaking q hole in the rear of
the warehouse wall. then smash.
ing a panel in the door connect.
ing the warehouse and the hard.
ware department.
Dick Taught. who lives Just
west of the store. was aroused by
his dog and called Bill Bercovich
who operates the Mercantile. who
in turn summoned the help of
police officers. The group sur.
rounded the building. covering
all exits. then entered the place
thinking the burglars were
trapped.
However. while Taught was
calling Bercovich. the thieves
apparently cut a hole in the rear
fence surrounding the building
and made their escape. but not
without one of them being seen
by Taught when he came out of
the house and stood only a few
feet away from the man, behind
. shrubby fence.
The career Of at least one of
the thieves could have been cut
short had It not been for the
convincing argument of Mrs.
Taught who talked her husband
out Of pulling the trigger of the
shotgun he had leveled at one
of the culprits. He can be thank.
full for this. but another time
he may not be 50 lucky.
Tribal and local police have sew.
eral clues they are investigating
which may lead to the apprc.
hension of At least one of the
men. Bill Bercovich Is Offering
