A bill provid,ng al appropriation
flr a state normal school buiIdinS st
Gunnison, Colossdo, wss passed by
thls general assembly, Ii ssceived
every vote in the hosse Of repre~ea-
tatises. and in ths senate only two
votes were recosdsd against the
measure No one hss contended
that there shoxld be two normal
schools on the western slope. In
fact the revea ses Of the state makes
il impossible to consider such
proposal.
la 1901 the general assembly Of
the state OF Colorado passed on an
act establishing q state normal
school at Gaanison, Colorado, in
the following language:
A state normal school is hereby
established at the city Of Gsnnison
IN the county Of GSnnison and
state of Colorado, the psrpose Of
which shall be instruction in the
science and art of teaching and in
branches Of knowledge ~ shall
qualify teachers for the profession:
Provided, That suitable tract Of
land, consisting of forty acres be
secured and donated for said site "
la compliance with that act, the
city and couHty Of Gunnison donat.
ed site of forty three acres, and
executed to the state OF Colorado, 4
deed therefor This site is within
four blocks Of the posteffice of that
city, and il 10 aaid TO be q most
admirable s;te for . nsrmal school
That tract Ass been fenced and the
grousd 10 being taken care of by
the city Of Gunnison, and held for
the construction OF the normal
school building thereon
Ii is claimed for the city Of Gun
nison that it is the healthiest place
in Colorado and freest from disease,
and . reputable physician OF that
Iowa writes me that the death rate
IRON all causes for the past fifteen
years has been only 4 per cent 600
of population per annum which is
aboat one-third Of the average death
rate in Colorado 1t is claimed
that the water is pure and abundant
and that it is an excellent place for
noTmal school.
la view of the fact that the legis-
latare of 1907 established state
normal there, and that the citizens
contributed forty-three acres Of the
land fer campus near the center
of the city it seems TO me it would
be . breach of good faith 70 locate
a state normal school at any other
place on the western slope than
Gunlison and therefore, as between
the Gunnison normal school bill
and this bill, if we are able to es-
tablish a normal school at this time
ii should be at Gunnlson. and SO
that not being able to establish two
normal schools on the Western
alope. should veto this bill. The

FACTS ABOUT THE FROG.
How the Reptile Aids Thirsty Travsl
ers In Australia.

Travellers in Australia have queer
way sometimes of getting water to
quench their thirst says the Chicago
News. Under a certain kind Of bush
they dig down a foot or two and bring
up q hard clay ball. When the ball is
broken out jumps frog, and the tray
eler then proceeds to drink the pure
cool water that the creature had pro
vided in its clay retreat as its beverage
during 4 drought. Another method OF
storing water is one that nature has
given to most members of the frog
family. 1t consists of an interior sack
in which water is kept for the emer-
gcncies of thirst, just like the arrange,
ment of the camel for q similar pur-
pose. The water so preserved is as
pure and tasteless as that from q
spring.
This suggests popularity about the
frogs skin that is interesting. The cold
and clammy condition of the skin is
dye to its con ant absorption Of wa
ter. A frog has been known to soak
up one-half its own weight of water in
short time. A singular result of this
skin moisture is the ability of the frog
to stand sudden application of dry
heat. If, for example, a redhot rod
be held quite close to frogs body, the
frog will not at once feel the heat, be-
cause the skin moisture forms sort
Of vapor film, through which it takes
little time for the heat to go.

With few exceptions the advertising

conception of the value of space or of
attractive methods of presenting

A pleasing relief to this mouotony is
afforded by the lads" of American
advertisers which are rather numerous
on their pages. We see many old
friends among these advertisers, and
prominent among these is the Cham

BIBLE STUDY CONTEST.
Suggestive Questions on the Sunday School
Lesson by Rev. DR.. LinscOtt for the
international Newspaper Bible Study Club

Why did they fast and pray, before
sending Paul and Barnabas on their
mission.
Would it be a help to each local
church to.day, to fast and pray be-
fore each missionary meeting.
DO you think the women took part
in this service, and whether or not,
what reason is there to debar women
from any of the church's work.
Verse Ais it possible or practical,
to be guided in every journey we
take, and ID all else by the Holy
spirit.
Should a pastor ever take charge of
new church, without being directed
to do so, by the Holy Spirit.
Please point out on the map, in
your Bible, where Seleucia, Salamis
and Cyprus are situated.
We're they consciously, or uncon-
sciously, directed by God the Holy
Spirit, all along their journey.
Verse 5.-Should men and women,
in the ordinary walks of life, be as
faithful in preaching the gospel, or
testifying for Jesus, wherever they
may be. as Paul and Barnabas we're.
Verse 6.-How many places men
toned in this lesson, are situated on
the Island of Cyprus. (See your map.
What motives had likely induced
this man Elymas, to claim to be a
prophet.
| Verses 7-8.-How do you account
for man being so bad, as to try to
prevent another man from serving the
true God.
Verses 9-12-Are good men justified
in rebuking bad men with vehemence,
when they would stop work of love
and mercy.
Is it possible for bad man to es-
cape the just penalty of his sins.
