From the department of Montana Comrade Charles Bielenberg, patriotic instructor, sends the following:

It is a pleasure to say that the work in Montana is progressing nicely, and that the people are awake to the fact that the youth of the country should be more fully acquainted with their duties as Americans and patriots. I have sent out many letters to boys and girls in different parts of the State, in which I have suggested the ideal of patriotism that I would have them cultivate. The public-school teachers are cooperating in a very commendable manner, and time will show that growth in patriotic love for country which is so essential to the perpetuity of our institutions.1
