LIFE AT ROCK RAPIDS.

ISIOuX CITY JUuTIHl.I
Once in a while an Iowa town gets
into the library business without the
assistance of Mr.. Carnegie or other
philanthropist to be mentioned in his
class. 1t is altogether a good thing to
do. Rock Rapids is a modern in
stance.
When the Ladies' Reading circle in
Rock Rapids had Its beginning cannot
here be set forth, but as long ago as
1898 the reading circle took UP with
the ambitious idea Of making start
toward a public library. A year later
the circle had gathered a sufficient
number of books to justify the name
Of library. and the same was accepted
by the city and placed in the care of
a library board. AT first the library

annual message.
When 1t Is known that In October,
1907, Iowa people We're lenders outside
of the state to the amount OF from
one hundred fifty to two hundred mil

is abundance OF money in Iowa for I'LL

longs TO our people. Governor Garsts

Sometimes the man is able, sometimes
experienced. Still it is one-nlan power.
One man never learns all the pitfalls.
The ablest of men has limited knowledge,
limited ideas and experience. And hui
man nature is too varied for any one
man to average.
But our Advisory Boards, in confer
ence, rarely make mistakes. And they
rarely fail to get from advertising every
latent possibility.
Under the one-man way, too many cam
paigns failed to return their cost. We
know that from our own experience.

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

Judge Smith has been in congress
eight or ten years. notes the Knoxville
Journal. He has known of this GUS
tom all this time. Why he has never
moved to reform it until now? And
why, if he desires to enforce the law
so strictly as he processes. did he not
introduce an amendment to the law
legalizing the custom rather than one
destined to impede the activity of the
government in ferreting out law
breakers 2" inquiries the Journal.

The Many-Man Power

We employ in our Offices, both in New
York and Chicago, an Advisory Board.
These two boards together consist OF
twenty-eight men.
Each Of these men is master OF adj.
yertising. Each is man of vast expert
ence and of proved ability. Each has
won his place here through brilliant sue
cesses in many hard-fought campaigns.
All are high-priced men. It costs us
about 81 minute to keep one of these
boards in session.
These men, in conference, work out the
campaigns which we undertake for our
clients. We bring to bear all their ex-
'perience, all their ideas.
The astounding successes for which
we are famous are due to this co-opera-

disgust for dishonesty, graft and
wrong doing. He has cleared the public

prevent the stealing Of public lands by

EQUIPPING CABIN
CARS WITH AIR BRAKES

All cabin cars must be supplied with
the automatic air brake equipment ac-
cording to a recent ruling of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission and to
obey the order local railroads have
started on the work of removing the
old style hand brakes and installing
the air brake instead.
This will increase considerably the
work in the car repair shops. especially
in the air brake departments, where
the work has been very slack during
the past two years. The cars will have
to be equipped with air cyclinders, pip
ing and hose, but the brake bears and
other apparatus can be used in the new
system.
While the Interstate Commerce ruled
that the cars be equipped with air prin-
cipally to prevent accidents, il is IN {
with the general approval of the rail-
road men. 1t often occurs that an eu-
gine must push its train into the yards
and terminals from the rear, and when
the cabin is attached, it is very diff
cult to control the train. Railroad
men approve the act from the fact that
it will make the cabins ride much cas-
Ter. It will remove the jar and most
of the later motion because the move-
ment of the cabin win conform with
the remainder of the train.

insurance proposition is one Of the big

Will Have to Erect Guide Posts.

Dodgeville Chronicle: One of the
last bills signed by Governor Davidson
provided for the erection of suitable
and appropriate sign boards along all
main Travelled highways. The law
makes it compulsory for the town
boards to do this and also to keep the
sign boards in repair.
On them in black Roman letters two
and one half inches high, is to be
painted the names of adjoining or
important towns, villages or cities to
and through which the highway leads,
the distance in miles to such places,
and any indication or direction which
will be helpful to the traveller.
Guide posts are badly needed all over
this section, and this law will be well
coined by every good citizen.
