IMPROVING ROADS TO
AND FROM THE HEIGHTS

Jas. H. Seville of the Canosia I'm
provement company has again taken up
the agitation for the improvement of
the roads leading to and from Duluth
Heights. He has of late been able to
interest some prominent citizens on the
project, and it is sincerely hoped that
no trouble will be experienced in induc-
ing the Council to act favorably on the
matter Mr.: seyille'ss idea 3tozstraighten
out the road from Duluth to the
Heights, we presume to enable the
Highland residents to use their auto
mobiles more easily.
He then wishes to continue Palmetto
street for short distance and then to
cut over to the Pike Lake road. The
purpose is to cut off all of the hills
just outside Of the Heights.

western Colleges to Debate.

Moscow, Idaho, Dec. 9.-The annual
debate here this evening between the
University of Idaho and the Washing
TN Agricultural college, is attracting
imach attention. The fact that each of
the institutions has victory to its
credit, leaving the present contest in
the nature of "rubber," has given
added interest to the event.
The question chosen for debate Isl;
(" Resolved, That laws should be passed
compelling the management of any
business undertaking that secures con-
troll of an industry to sell it's products
at reasonable prices and without dis
elimination. Idaho has the affirma-

SKATING ON THIN ICE.

81 can skate right along the edge
of states prison, and still keep out. "
So said Theodore Stegner, the pro-
prietor of get-rich-quick concern of
st. Louis The BOAST was the cause
of his undoing. The saying made a
woman whom he trusted suspicious.
She decided that man who could
skate so skillfully would bear watch
ing, especially since Stegner had some
of her money in his business. Being
employed in his Office, she became his
nemesis. She copied letters and Sc
cured evidence by which the reckless
skater was brought to bay. He was
convicted in the United States court
on the charge of using the mails to
defraud, says the Seattle Star.
Stegner skated too near the edge.
The ice is thin there. 1t broke under
him and let him down into the deep
water. Remember that story about
the man who wanted coachman3 He
asked each applicant how close he
could drive to the edge OF a precipiee
Each protested he could drive closer
than the others. But one of the men
answered that as for him he would
drive as far from the edge as possible
He was employed. The prudent per
son keeps away from the edge.

THE APPRECIATION OF ART.

Europe can no longer throw bricks
ast the artistic side Of the people of the
Omitted States.
Across the water they say that we
=sre savages, that we have no cultured
Ssiass, and that we know about as much
about art and harmony as COW knows
about algebra.
1t isn't true. 1t is a libel and a
scandal.
The opening of the Italian opera
season in New York has been pro
aDOuneed the most brilliant function
an the history of the metropolis. So
aeiety turned out in numbers. 1t is
rstated by the New York World that
fjhey never arrived so late before, and
lby their lateness, annoyed the few peo-
ple who really wanted to hear the mu-
ssic to an extent that must have forced
pleasant thrills up and down the spines
sof the -Four Hundred.
Then again there were the jewels
and the bare shoulders. 1t is said that
hhe boxes were ablaze with gems, and
ahe value of the trappings of the wom-
en ran into the millions. As for the
shoulders, the exposure was fully up to
expectations
Then there was the conversation in
ithe boxes. The possessors of millions
had real good visit. Whether they
talked scandal or put in their time
sdamming the automobile laws that
have lately been enacted TO preserve
she' lives of the laboring class it wots
not. They talked to an extent that
made the music secondary considera-
tion. In fact, they proved that the
'opera was only an incident.
But it must be admitted that Italian
opera was given. The orchestra strug
gled manfully through the score and
the singers hurled their notes straight
at the chattering menagerie of hu-
mans. Next morning the critics said
IL was altogether splendid.
In this country we may occasionally
tackle apple pie with our knife and
nnconseiously slake our thirst from the
finger bowl, but the Social Upper Crust

The sensational Mrs. Chadwick case

ing purged of coarseness and vulgari

| It is possible to be very highly edu
lcated-to be veritable walking en-
,cyclopedia, and yet be altogether un'
lovely and unrefned.
Let us understand the words we
commonly use, and we shall be nearer
the spirit of culture. Let us set about
cultivating ourselves with agricultur-
ist system, and we can expect flower
and fruit in their season.
| There must be truth. Don't think
that you can affect culture. Present
conditions must be recognized and
reckoned with; plans must be laid for
the future; possibilities have to be
taken into account, even as in plough
ing the soil and preparing it for SOW
ing and fruitage.
The stone of prejudice, bias, ill tenn
per, impatience, vulgarity, must be
carefully removed if we would expect
good crop, but then all that comes
under the heading of refinement" "
The seed sown in school and out of
school, by instruction, precept or ex-
ample, in public or private comes to
us under the general term "educa-
tion," but don't get into the way of
thinking that a knowledge of Shake
speare, or the higher mathematics, is
culture, or that intimate acquaintance
with the Bible is religion.
In the words of Sharp, Couture in
its broadest sense may be called the
highest phase Of civilization" 1t is
the cultivation, the steady improve
ment, of the whole man, bodily, men
tally, and spiritually.
You will readily see, therefore, that
the cultured person may be lacking in
knowledge of the exact sciences, but
cannot be indolent or presumptious,
lying or dishonest; nor can he be inn
patient or sensual. He may be poor
he often is-fOr true culture cannot
be covetous and greedy. He may not
be able to talk very freely about
art" or "Browning," or any par.
ticular cult, but he will always give
an intelligent expositor a patient hear
ing, for the cultured person is above
all things humble
For the very reason that humility is
the soil in which this virtue we are
grows most freely, there
can be no such thing as over'cul-
ture, f" no, not if we live to be as old
