NEWS FROM MICHIGAN

F. Il. DeKay has received news OF
an accident at Mt. Clemens, Mich,
that will interest people here who
knew Roy DeKay during his residence
here some years ago.
Mt. Clemens, Mich, Sept. 20.-His
head. face, arms and the right side

doctors have as yet been unable to

DeKay is being lauded as a hero in
Mt. clemens. When the excitement
following the accident had quoted
members Of the party told Of his
nervy dash from his seat In the stern

tank of gasoline in the bow Of the
craft, which, If the flames had reached
lit, would probably have resulted IA

lKay's condition warrant it, he will be
taken to Grace hospital, Detroit, to-
day.
The cause Of the explosion was a
leaky feed pipe, and the flames shot
up from under the engine, over which
.e Kay and his partner, Ray Groes-
beck, were bending. Seated beside the
pair was THEODORE Englender, who
was drowned In an effort to swim
ashore.
Almost blinded by the flames, Dc
Kay made his way to the bow. As he
opened the door leading to the gaso-
line tank the fire burst into his face

boat. To prevent it from entering the
tank through the pipe, the valve had

That the Chronicle is guilty of a
serious breach of propriety in pub
fishing the facts in connection with
the escapade of one of the city Off
GERS is the claim made by one Of the
interested parties. Just why the gen.
tleman should be exempt from cen
sure is not plain, but presumably his
claim to immunity rests upon his Off
cial position, his wealth and social
standing, In other words the Chron-
icle editor should consult Bradstreet,
the official director and the social
calendar before using legitimate
item of news. The Almighty Dollar
should be the standard by which we
should measure the merits and de-
merits Of men. Immunity for the
rich and newspaper notoriety for the
poor is the rule laid down for the
guidance of the publisher. 1t is I'M
fortunate that many publisher has
faithfully adhered to the above rule.
From the standpoint Of dollars and
cents such a policy Is remunerative
but the Chronicle prefers to retain its
independence, even at the risk or
loosing a few greasy dollars. We care
not whether a man be Greek, Jew or
heather, Mormon or Gentle. We
care not whether he has reached the
highest round of the social, financial
or political ladder, he will receive no
more consideration at the hands OF
this paper than the poor devil who
earns his bread "by the sweat OF his
brow" A decent man has nothing to
fear from newspaper notoriety An
indecent man is not in IA position to
ask any favors.

his pockets, but his money was not
taken. That he HAD six or eight dol
lars in silver and was on his way
home.
If this report is true, Joe is eligible

FARMERS WILL BE
| TAUGHT BY POSTAL
Innovation Planned by Faculty
of Agricultural Department
for Quick Distribution

BERKELEY, June 25.-Instruction
by postal card is the latest innovation
of the department of agriculture of the
university. II the plans of the uniyer-
sity faculty of this department. mature,
this method OF instruction will be fol-
lowed to supplement the work Of the
agricultural demonstration train which
travels throughout the state at stated
intervals.
Aside from the oheapness of the plan
over the present method of issuing bull
letins at great expense, the time ele-
ment is one of its most important fea-
lures. Under the present method 1t is
necessary for the manuscripts to be
sent to the state printer at Sacramento,
the proofs being sent here for correc-
ton and again sent back.
This entails a great loss of time and
often bulletins of vital Importance at
one time are worthless If issued later
The cost of the present bulletin
method is also drawback, and on ac7
count OF the present lack of funds many
bulletins are now tied up in the state
printers office awaiting publication.
1t Is planned to limit the number of
words on the card TO 500, which will be
plenty in most cases to give the farmer
a comprehensive command of the mes
sage of the university authorities.
