June passed so quickly! But the days are pleasantly warm and the skies very blue - Montana blue!
"Then Heaven tries earth if it be in tune, and over it softly her warm ear lays."

A sign, "ST. IGNATIUS, TURN LEFT," which if followed would take you to the Mission Mountains instead.

Lee and a buddy going off toward bus stop on their way back to work. Terry and a friend spent the weekend at home and were off to work, too, laden down with cookies. Terry works at a mill; Lee at a laundry. How many young folks must leave their home to find work! A sad fact which robs our town of fresh ability and enthusiasm.
NEW industries are NEEDED!
Could the Beckwith building, if vacated, serve as a frozen fruit and vegetable processing plant—or as a cannery?
