said Pastor Bluhm to the Man About
Town when questioned about the
work of DR.. Blakesley in connection
with his summer course at Columbia
University. DIR. Blakesley had not
returned from the National Educa-
tional Association at the time Of
Mr.. Bluhm's visit. but the latter
made close inspection of the splen-
did equipment in Teachers College.
He visited the carpenter and forge
shops. the foundry. machine tool
room. wood turning room. joinery
room. hAndicraft room. metallic
work. domestic art and modelling
rooms. Each is complete in itself.
While it is true that La Junta may
not soon expect 50 complete = plant
as the one visited. yet such selection
as DIR. Blakesley is sure to make will
become a desirable and effective
asset to our public school system.
and those wishing to enter. without
university training. some phase Of

BILE to make ample preparation while

What many citizens of La Junta
need is to give up the idea Of tenn
porary residence in this burg. There
are too many people here who imag-
inc that they are here just for a
few days, and full of trouble, and
that some day. not just yet. but
some day in the dim distant future.
they will pack up their belongings
in a suit case and move to Milpitas
or Jericho and there get rid Of their
ill-gotten La Junta wealth in riotous
living. What many citizens of La
Junta need to cultivate is the idea
of permanency, and get rid of the
idea that they are here just for a
few days. La Junta will be thing of
beauty and a joy forever long after
most of US have joined the in
Vulnerable throng. For long time
many people believed that the Santa
Fe shops were a temporary affair,
but most mortals are now convinced
by the permanent and imposing ap-
pearance of the present buildings
that the shops are here to stay for
all time. The Santa Fe has declared
its faith in La Junta. and it's about
time for some of the pessimistic old
timers to declare themselves and
assert in no uncertain tones that
they are here to stay. We dom t
know of a man who has gone broke
on an investment in La Junta. and
most of the old-timers are in a pros
porous condition compared to what
they were when they arrived here.
Those who have not prospered can
blame themselves. They have al
lowed strangers to come in and beat
them to good things. Don't be bun
coed into investing your surplus
wealth in will-o' -the-wisp gold mines
and oil wells in some distant CLINE.

Sheriff Barr has been leading the

yellow newspapers of the effete east.
He has received not less than 500
worth Of kilograms and $50 tele-
phone inquiries asking for informa-
ton concerning the Boston wife
murderer. Schidlofskas. and has
experienced the sensation of seeing
his name emblazoned in big black
type clear across the front pages Of
Boston and Chicago yellow journals.
Such is fame, and plenty Of it. He
received q two hundred word affi-
davit from the Boston American.
one of Willie Hearst's journals. with
a request to sign. seal and deliver

only information he received from
any source whatever concerning
Schidlofskas was through the Chica-
go American. and that the arrest
was made solely on this information.
and not through any word from the
Massachusetts, police. The Boston
American says it wants Barr to
have all the credit. Willie Hearst
is getting all the advertising that is
coming to him out Of the case. and

OLYMPIA. Sept THE state
board Of equalization met here to-
day. the first mcctinE since the tax
commissioners were authorized to
act as members. The others on the
board are Sam Nichols. secretary OF
state. c. W. Clausen. state auditor,
and r. w Ross. state land commits
sioner,
The only thing the state board
can do Is to fix the amount Of
state taxes To be paid by each eoun-
~. II may find. and Will find. that
hundreds OF thousands OF dollars
worth OF property has not been as
seased. that other property Is taxed
at too low a rate. but Il cannot add
q dollar 20 any mans assessment or
change a figure on the county tax
books.
IL the state board. for instance.
thinks that the King county asseas-
or has made too low an assessment.
as compared with other counties.
say 30 per cent too low. the state
will simply call on King county to
pay 20 per cent more state taxes.
For instance. II the state board
decided that King county street
railways are worth a million dollars
more than they are assessed and
raises tho King county assessment
that million. the increased tax does
