has been prepared. The division also distributes, free of cost, printed 

 fishing regulations and two-color big game hunting maps. 



Requests for special articles, photographs and lectures are handled 

 within the limits of department personnel to do so. Members of the de- 

 partment also participate in educational lecture series on adult educa- 

 tion and talks to civic and sportsmen clubs. Educational problems of 

 farmer-department-sportsman relationships also fall to this division. 



Youth education is progressing and promises to be one of the most 

 important activities of the education division. The department feels 

 that young Montanans are the backbone of the resource conservation 

 movement. Every effort will be made to supply the state's youth with 

 facts concerning the status of wildlife resources. 



Initial efforts include teaching assistance at the annual 4-H Con- 

 servation Camp and instruction and talks to school groups. 



Moving pictures have been acquired and are distributed to schools, 

 sportsmen's clubs and other interested groups. 



While education and information are the particular job of this 

 division they are also the responsibility of every department employee. 

 Intra-department communications are aimed toward keeping all de- 

 partment personnel informed so they in turn can report to the people 

 of Montana.
