The above monogram, designed by a member, was adopted last year as the local emblem and is stenciled on the wall of the dining room where the monthly dinner meetings are held. HE Glasgow chapter of the Montana Education Association is recognized as one of the most active locals in the state and was one of the first to take the lead in promoting strong local units. This year the group has stressed in its program the development of close state and local relationship. Contributing to this development was the visit of M. P. Moe, state executive-secretary, at the February meet- ing. The group holds a dinner meeting on the second Thursday in each month at the Blue Room of the Allen Cafe. Program, food and table committees are appointed to arrange for these meetings. Outside speakers from local or state organizations or local musicians often participate in these programs. A special activity for the year was the Northeastern District M. E.. A. convention held in Glasgow last October. A number of splendid general and sectional meetings were presented under the directoin of local and outside teachers for this Golden Anniversary convention. Social activities are an important part of the year's program. Fea- tures of this year were the picnic at Porcupine creek, the banquet and dance with the 'iwizard of Oz theme during the convention and the Apache New Year's party. Elected to represent the local staff at the Delegate Assembly in G reat Falls this March were: Miss Helen Atkins, local presidentg Miss Cloris Swindler and Supt.
