EARLY CLOSING OF THE
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

The board of education has decided
TO close the schools OF the city as
carly as May 2S, or week earlier
than usual. This will deprive our
school teachers of one week of ser.
vice and bring their earning abilities
as teachers below the ordinary ten
school months or nine calendar
months.
We understand there are funds suf-
hcient TO continue the school service
up to June and, if that be true, 1t
might be advisable for the board of
education TO reconsider its action and
give the school teachers a full ten
months of teaching and the salary that
goes with It,
The teachers in the Ogden schools
are paid none too much money for
their labors and to cut them down
one week In forty weeks means a two
and one-half per cent reduction. which
they can i'll afford to lose.
The board members may have some
good object TO be attained which has
not been disclosed and. therefore. we
advance these views simply for the
purpose OF obtaining a response and
drawing from them their real purpose
In cutting short the school year.

TRYING TO CONTROL
THE LAKE.

A local engineer who has noted the
embanlonent which forms the west
ern approach to the trestle on the
Ogden-Lucin cutoff. has advanced the
theory that to stop the tearing down
os the embankmcnt it will be neces
sary to build a breakwater at a dis
tance of 100 to 200 feet from the road,
and this plan. 1t would seem. is about
to be adopted by the Southern Pacific.
But the Ogden man says solid
brcakwater of piling. timbered to
completely check the waves on the
lake in period OF storm. would prove
unequal to the strain. He maintains
that the piling should he driven
foot apart and should not be boarded
up. All that Is necessary is an OBJ
struction TO break the wave motion.
with large body of dead water be-
tween the point where the waves
strike the breakwater and the EN-
bankment, this inactive water to act
rs a cushion against the volume of
water carried by the waves. He has
observed how pillng, as much as fif-
teen feet apart. has calming effect
on the surface of the water and he
Is convinced that piles placed at
distance of foot apart would effec-
lively break up that mighty force Of
the heavy lake water which is now
capable of tearing away rocks OF ton
or more which arc used in rip-rapping.
The engineers have quite problem
before them, as the suggestion of the
local engineer gives some idea OF
what must be done before the lake,
when churned by storm, can be sub,
dued by the forces commanded by

Many coughs attributed to the stom-

other causes are due to the presence of
adenoids
"Earache Is a frequent accompani-

result"
The presence of adenoids or enlarg-
ed tonsils constitutes an open door TO
invasion Of the body by harmful germs
In cases of mouth-breathing the deli

gion Of the adenods and enlarged ton

BLOCK SIGNALS SAVED
MANY LIVES.

William Ashton. chief engineer NJ
the Oregon Short Line. in an address
before the state engineers assembled
in Salt Lake City Friday, said that
last year ninety-four cases where
Trains had been stopped for inspection
by the automatic system had been re-
Ported to the Oregon Short Line. Upon
investigation 1t was found that sixty.
five OF these cases had been caused
by broken rails, three from main
switches left partly open, several from
derailinG caused by switch being open,
Ten where cars had been left too close
to the main line. a number because
trains were in the wrong block. n
few because switches had been brok.
en-, and several from other reasons.
With statistics of that kind before
The Ogden standard. [volume] (Ogden City, Utah) 1902-1910, 1909-04-17

them, It is criminal negligence for
any railroad to be without the auto
matic block signals. In the ninety
four cases in which trains were warn
ed against impending danger, un,
doubtedly a big percentage OF the
warnfngN prevented serious wrecks
and the loss of life.
Since the Union Pacific and South
crn Pacific out of Ogden have been
equipped with the signals there has
been no collision and no very disas-
trous wreck except from some un'
avoidable accident such as the derail-
