The Chicago school board has is
sued an order that hereafter only
teachers who have secured college
degrees will be eligible. to the princi-
palship of schools Several teachers
who are normal school graduates
crlticise this order, as it bars them
from advancement The wisdom OF
this step is yet to be proved. 1t may
be found that an arbitrary rule of this
kind that denies advancement to
teachers who have mastered the prob
lens of the teacher by long years of
practical experience in teaching and
who are well equipped with brain
power to hold any position that is
open to them in their profession,

:, THE EVENING STORY
HER TRAGEDY-HIs COMEDY.
BY DONALD ALLEN.

Copyright, 1910, by Associated Liter

Miss Ida Gregg had been worrying
about financial matters. Her Wild
owed mother was fairly we'll, off, and
Miss Ida's aunt had left her com
Portable legacy, but she read OF
strikes and earthquakes and floods
and failing brokers, and she felt that
her capital ought to be doubled.
How to do it? 1t took the young
lady Just fourteen minutes to decide,
and in sixteen she was laying out the
plot. She would write a play. It
should be tragedy. There would be
five acts. She would sell it for
$4,000 cash down and royalty Of
ten per cent. 1t was just as easy as
going down to the village post office
and registering letter. Miss ida
was very calm, but at the same time
very determined, rs she hunted up
her mother and announced:
Il am going to write play
Eyes, dear"
"a five-act tragedy"
Certainly"
Il shall get $4,000 for it, at least"
"Yes?'
Five minutes later the girl was on
her way to buy foolscap, bottle of
black ink, another of red, and two
penholders and pens. Before IL

WE MUST ABOUT FACE.

Under the caption. 1--WE Must About
Face" the Cedar Rapids Republican
gives editorial expression of it's views
on one of the troubles that works to
Iowa's disadvantage. The Republican
says:
We have had too much conscrip-
ton in Iowa. We have been after eacn
other too much. We must quit It, we
must get together more. We must all
join the building up army. We nave
had too much regulation of one KIND
or another. Much of this over regula'
ton has been enacted merely to serve
the ends Of politics. Rival factions
have in that manner striven to prove
their devotion to the people But the
people in the end have suffered. IN
population, Iowa Is smaller today tnan
it was ten years ago-4O,OO smaller
That is startling record for state
that is naturally as rich as Iowa.
We have lacked growth because we
have regulated investments to deatn.
We are more populistic than Kansas
and it has come about that even such
wild and woolly states as South Da-
kota can take packing houses from
Iowa because the investors believe
that they can get greater cooperation
outside of Iowa than in 1t.
Des Moines ought to have 2OO.Ooo
people. Cedar Rapids and Sioux City
and Dubuque and Davenport and
Burlington ani Council Bluffs and OF
tumwa ought to have 100000 each.
Then our farms would all be worth
5000 an acre and we would have var
led industrial population.
We must quit it, says the Repubil-
can in summing up. We must get into
better relations with the men who
have capital. with the agencies that
employ labor and that utilize natural
advantages.
Iowa needs more business and less
politics. Iowa is legislated and pol
iticked" to a limit that is driving peo-
pie out of the state.

Gil Monday evening these two alder

Ottumwa cannot afford to take
stem backward in this regard. the
Ansher has been tried and found to be
success. The Investigating COM
m,ttee reported to the council that
cities which used the dusher cleaned
their streets better and at lower cost
than those relying on the old time
methods. The committee declared us

saving instead of an expense to the

The Pennsylvania railroad system.
in order TO provide against timber
scarcity, has on the lines west of
Pittsburg placed in experimental serv-
ice number of concrete telegraph
poles through New Brighton. Pa. The
construction of the poles has followed
a series of elaborate experiments
which have been conducted during the
past two years.
According to the experiments made
so far. it is thought that concrete
telegraph pole will last for many gen
erations. thereby doing away with the
frequent renewals necessary with
wooden poles. Much Importance is
also attached to the increased strength
of the new poles, which hold the strain
of the line. even on curves. without

CONGRESS IS likely
TO Be CURTA|LED
Representation of Some States
May Be Reduced by Re-
apportionment.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The new
census promises to precipitate a poll
teal and sectional controversy of
vital interest to the people. Based
upon the population it represents,
congress will have to determine
whether it shall be numerically en-
larged and made more unwieldy than
it now is, or whether the aggregate of
persons entitled to a member of con-
gress shall be so curtailed.
Some states, if the latter plan is
adopted, will lose representation in
congress through diminution of
population during the last ten years,
while others are certain of an in
crease due to growth in the number
of their inhabitants. The present ra-
ito of apportionment is one member
for every $4,000 inhabitants; the
present house consists of 391 mem
bers.
II congress were to adopt for the
present house the ratio of apportion-
ment observed in 1900, the house of
representatives would be increased by
6S members. This would bring the
total membership up to 46O. 1t is not
expected, however, that this ratio will
be maintained.
1t is expected that when the ap.
portionment bill is considered the
number of the members of the house
will be fixed at one for every 225,OOO.
This would mean that the house
would remain practically at it's pres
ent figure
