al Johns Address
On Citizenship

The regular weekly Kiwanis
meeting was held Thursday noon,
January 80 in the banquet room
of the Lalonde hotel with Presi-
dent Keith Krebsbach in charge.
Guests, including Elmer Frank,
Don Coutts and Student Dean
Williams of Sidney, and Art Mel
son of Helena, were welcomed
by Cy Clute.
Since this meeting ended
Deans month as student guest, he
spoke briefly, giving his impress
sions of Kiwanis and thanking
the members for having selected
him. Art Nelson was prevailed
upon to say a few words, and
entertained the club with several
humorous "reminiscences of his
early days in Sidney in the 1909
1918 era.
Program Chm. DR.. Benson in
troduced Al Johns, who complain
ed that he had been asked to
substitute and had not been Civ
en- time to prepare nor adequate
notice. However, Al turned in his
usual good performance, giving a
very. interesting talk on Citizen
ship and on the difficulties he
had underone in securing his own
Naturalization Papers. He stressed
that most foreign born citizens
consider their Citizenship Pap
ers their most precious possession
but that securing them is a long
and arduous task. In closing, Al
expressed his personal feeling
that Citizenship includes many
obligations as well as rights and
privileges and added the wish
that all citizens take a deeper and
more personal interest in their
country.

mittee, will be chairman
The main purpose is to get the
questions and facts about each
one of the seven big questions be-
fore "Mr. and Mrs. Public" re-
garding the problem of education
beyond the high school.
In Montana 1.-THE Governors
Committee on Education Beyond
the High School" has been max
ing a detailed study of the sub
ject. After a great deal of re-
search they have compiled a list
of seven pertinent questions along
with facts about each one. These
are to be presented by a panel
which in turn wants opinions and
discussions from the public.
Questions: What kinds of edu-
cation beyond the high school
should be made available in Mon
tana?
In Montana how many shall we
educate beyond high school?
How can quality be maintained
and improved in the fact of in
creasing numbers?
How can students be helped to
choose and follow the education
program for which they are best
qualified?
How can we get enough quail
fled teachers?
How can we in Montana pro-
vide adequate facilities and fl
nancial support?
How can the institutions and
the State plan the best use of
our total resources?
Here is your opportunity to
make known what you want in
the way of education beyond the
high school. The Governors
Committee" is giving you a real
opportunity. Wake up, Mr.. and
Mrs. Publicl Put the democratic
way to work. Do your talking
now rather than after legislation,
rules, and regulations have been
established.
What do you want and how
do you think problems of Montana
citizens concerning education be-
yond the high school can be
solved?
We will have education or we
will not have educationl Either
way we will payl
We will either pay for educa-
ton or we will pay for the lack
70 education!

at new all-time highs.
For the year 1857 the Com
pany's consolidated sales amount
ed to So, lit, 900, 900 an increase
of ga percent over the previous
year. Net profit for 1857, after
provision for all income taxes,
amounted to $30,906,8 76 as COM
pared to $25, 406,31 in 1856 -
an increase of 21.65 percent.
Income Taxes in 1857 were
$34,110,770 as against $27, 955, 140
in 1856. Sideways net profit for
1857 after preferred dividends OF
$1,391,567 amounted to $2.48 per
share of common stock on an av-
erage of 11,898,324 shares out

per share in 1856 when an equiv,
alent of 10,964,889 were out,
standing.
J, Sideways common stock wa
split on a 3-for-1 basis in Novem

outstanding before the split, 1885,
earnings amounted to STA pei
share as compared to $6.42 pei

Thanks to a little help by the
Havre Blue Ponies, the Sidney
Eagles are mor solidly entrench-
ed in first place in the Glass A
conference.
The locals two wins last week
end coupled with a Billings Gen.
trail loss to Havre increased the
Sidney lead by two full games.
The Rams are now 90 as against
Sidney's Ito.
Still very much in contention
is Havre (7-3) followed by Miles
City 5-4, Great Falls Central SIS,
Glasgow SIS, Laurel So, Hardin
3-8, Glendive 2-7, and Lewistown
Oil.
The Eagles, although better
situated now still are a long ways
from cinching the Class A title.
With seven games remaining,
four of them on the road, any,
thing can happen to upset the
applicant.
OF the remaining games the two
this week should be the toughest.
Billings Central has been wait
ing for Sidney ever since Deem
Der IA and Hardin likewise would
like to avenge their December Is
defeat at the hands of Sidney.
The Rams have lost but two
conference games. Last weeks
56-41 defeat played at Havre and
54-43 here in Sidney. They have
not been defeated on their home
court. Besides their conference
wins they have twice stopped
Class AA Bozeman.
Coach Ed Hummel'S squad is
he tallest in the league. Their
front line of Bert Emery, Bill
Polly and Ed Bait averages 6'4".
Their two starting guards, clever
but small, are Kerry Feldman
and Bernie Cleary. Others ex-
pected to see action are Tom Mac
Intyre, Ron Hofferber and Joe
Kurka.
In their defeat here the Rams
were without the services of start
ing center Bait and used injured
Feldman mostly in the second
half. Playmaker guard Feldman
in that limited time, scored 10
points. Sidney will have to play
their best ball of the season to
win this one.
Saturday the Eagles will move
south TO Hardin. The Bulldogs,
although ranked in eighth place,
are always tough at home.
In the first meeting between
these schools Sidney had an easy
time of it winning 64-49. How
ever, like the Rams, Hardin too
was missing one of their better
players. Veteran Steve Dyche, a
regular on last seasons fabulous
Hardin club, did not even make
that trip due to injuries.
Coach Casey Emerson's starters
will probably be Wilbur Kukas
and Lloyd Old Coyote at for
wards. Floyd Bastrom at center
and Dick Ragland and Dyche at
the guard spots.
The Bulldogs three victories
were over Miles City, Great Falls
Central and Glasgow. Two of
these clubs, the first and last
mentioned, gave Sidney their
toughest games of the year.
Coach Toby Kangas expects to
take a squad of IL and the team
manager on this all important
trip. The team win leave Friday
morning.
Still the big question in the
Eagle camp is when center Bob
Jensen will be back in action. He

LEGISLATIVE RECORD $50.
Continued from yesterday
An outbreak Of hog cholera in ST. Thomas and ST..
John was brought under control. With the present vacci-
nation program underway, it is hoped that this disease
will be eradicated.
General Preparation Of a State and Survey Plan for the
Instruction Of new medical and hospital facilities under
the Halliburton Act is in the process OF completion. In
order to become eligible for Federal aid, the plan must be
approved by the Surgeon General Of the . S. Public
Health Service.
Al revised Organization Chart was approved by the
Governors Committee on October A, 1857 Several posi-
tons required by this organization have not been activat-
ed, but plans for the future include full operations under
the revised organization.
The Board of Education and the Board for Vocational
Education have directed the policies of the Department
IN d most encouraging manner. The eacher-training pro-
cram under the direction Of DR.. Alonzo G. Moron OF;
Hampton Institute has been continued with a summer SEES
sion in ST. Croix, two courses during the year, and seminar
in January.
Elementary schools continued to function with great.
II efficiency in some areas as supplies and some textbooks
have been provided. However, these are continuing
needs which will not be satisfied in one. year.
Programs have been conducted for veterans and
adults in vocational and other subjects.
School Bus transportation New buses are urgently
needed both in St. Thomas and in st. Croix to replace
average and unsuitable vehicles which we find impossible
to maintain in dependable operating condition.
Department Headquarters. ST. Thomas : In the Spring of
1865 this Department was obliged to vacate its Offices at
'Quarters B." at which time headquarters Offices were
transferred to the former Vocational School, without the
possibility of renovating the premises or making desired
alterations to make this former school suitable for Offices,
Repairs, alterations, and improvements are still needed
not only to make the premises more presentable, but also
to improve working conditions and to protect the main
building and equipment from further deterioration.
Recreation The Bureau of Recreation employed six
summer playground workers and later secured leaders on
permanent basis; one for ST. Thomas, one for st. John,
and two for st. Croix. With this staff, it has been possible
for the Bureau to cooperate with the Youth Commission in
the establishment and operation Of Youth Centers, to
conduct a summer program, to sponsor various athletic
leagues, and to supervise the maintenance and repair of
its facilities.
When repairs being performed as authorized from
special funds are completed, recreational facilities should
be more nearly adequate and the program will be extend

and equipment. One phase of this program has been the
observance of National Library Week : March 16 to q.
For the third year, the Library has sponsored the
Screen Tours. It has continued to serve as the
place for exhibition OF paintings.
Our public libraries contain one of the best conec-
tons of historical material on the Virgin Islands and the
Caribbean area. This has been augmented during the year.
Education The following activities of signi-
fcance took place in Vocational Education:
Two instructors of Agriculture were employed and
classes at Christiansted High School and Frederiksted
Junior High School were reactTvated.
Extension of Auto Mechanics Course in st. Croix
from a halliday program to an all day program. The
Auto-Mechanics Course at Charlotte Amalle High
School was reopened, with the hiring of a new
Instructor.
A new Home Economics Instructor was employed,
thus completing the requirements for teachers in this
area.
SOCIAL WELFARE
The Public Assistance Program has remained sound
conservative while fulfilling its mission to aid the
needy in our Islands.
The assistance caseload, totallng 1910 persons in
June 1857, rose during the ~off-tourist season to 1878 per
in September 1857, but by February 1855, it had
fallen to 1872 persons this is best compared directly with
the 1906 persons on assistance in February 1857, in the
height OF the previous tourist season..
The 1958-59 proposals include small increases in food
allowances for invalids. and for aged or incapacitated per-
living alone, in house rent allowances, and in the
allowances for laundry services They are estimated to
improve grants by an average of $3.50 per month per
adult tcosting us only $1.10 per month IN the Federal
where Federal supplies 5000 Of the cost.
The Division Of Child Welfare caseload increased
80 children in April 1857 to 1884 children in Febru-
1858.
Through the v. / Government appropriation this
and substantial donations by citizens through the
League of st. Thomas and the Community Chest
of St. Thomas, the long-unmet need for a home for girls
realized with the opening on March S, 1858, Of the IN
sular Training School for Girls at Estate Annals Hope, st.
Croix. Boys of the Boys Training School and of the Man
ual Training Glasses of the st. Croix High School, and
members Of the Veterans Classes aided greatly in rehabi-
.litation and rernodeling of the old building put in use for
the Girls Home. Already five girls have been admitted to
the Home. The Insular Training School for Boys at Annals
Hope is functioning well, with an enrolment averaging

where for something forgotten
In looking ahead, think of all
the holiday functions, even the
snack times. Remember to plan
for unexpected guests, too.
Store staple foods, items that
will keep without danger of
spoilage, in sufficient quantities
to meet all the holiday needs.
Remember the pleasure those
extra touches" give the family.
Plan and prepare ahead the
candy, cookies, fruit cake and
other time consuming goodies
that seem to disappear in such
huge quantities at such times.
Most cookies and yeast breads
can be baked, packaged in mois-
tureproof containers, and frozen
for the holidays. Many home
makers have found covered Jars,
and even empty potato chip cans
with reasonably tight lids, make
excellent keeping places for
cookies.
Plan for enough fresh fruits
and vegetables for salads, relish
plates, and snacks. If suitable
holding space is not available
in the refrigerator vegetable
drawer, better leave the more
tender fruits and vegetables for
the last trip to the store before
it closes for the holiday.
Turkey and ham will be among
the good buys for this holiday
seasons menus. Fresh pork
roasts and frying chickens are
also on the good buy list. Order
meat early to get better choice.

Howard {. Christy,
Noted Painter, To
Ohio Hall OF Fame

Howard Chandler Christy, the
celebrated painter, is to be ad-
mitted to the Teenage Hall of
Fame of Ohio. Announcement of
his selection was made by Hall
of Fame, State Auditor James A.
Rhodes.
Christy, who grew up along
the Muskingum River in the
vicinity of Duncan Falls, be-
tween GAINESVILLE and McConnels-
vile, started his illustrious art
career at the age of three. At
10 he landed his first commercial
job and at 13 he won a prize for
a sketch submitted to the Toledo
Blade. The latter success proved
to be the deciding factor in
Christy choosing painting as his
life work.
He was 16 when he went to
New York City to study under
w. M. Chase, renowned art
teacher. Chase declared his Ohio
student to be the most brilliant
pupil he ever taught.
Hall of Fame dedication exer-
cises will be held in the State
Capitol in Columbus where two
of Christy's famous paintings
hang. They are the signing of
the Greenville Treaty" and
Thomas Alva Edison" who also
is to be admitted to the Hall of
Fame. The dedication is sche-
duled for next spring.
In addition to Christy and
Edison other noted Ohioans to
be honored include Charles
Francis Brush, Joe E. Brown,
Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Charles
F. Kettering, Annie Oakley, Paul
Altman Siple and Roy Rogers.
