Your select="method" _does_ select a list of all the <method> nodes;
however, when a node-list is converted to a string, only the fist node
is used.

You could try iterating over the <method> elements:

<xsl:template match="subject">
<font class="display"><b><xsl:value-of select="topic" /></b></font><br
/>
<xsl:for-each select="method">
  <font class="display"><xsl:value-of select="." /></font><br />
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

That's OK, but when your stylesheets get more complicated it's clearer
to split them up into separate templates:

<xsl:template match="subject">
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="topic">
  <font class="display"><b><xsl:apply-templates/></b></font><br />
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="method">
  <font class="display"><xsl:apply-templates/></font><br />
</xsl:template>
