WAR ON THE Go.cARTs.

The Iowa state board of health has
started crusade against the two
wheeled go-carts used to ride children
in.
Secretary Sumner has declared
that they have no springs in them.
and that when the go-cart, with it's
load of human freight, is dropped
from a curbing, the jar on the spinal
column of the child is bad impedi-
ment to the child's continued good
health. He will urge the abolition OF
such carts unless they are provided
with springs.
The carts can be either pulled or
pushed along, the child sitting upright.
Every time the cart is pulled over a
bump or dropped from the sidewalk
TO the pavement, there is a jar ON
the child's back which is tending. in
the opinion of the board Of health
to weaken the backs of children.

seven months of the fiscal year 1911

operating revenue per mile for all

revenue shows decrease of 81 per

Is plain that the decrease for all roads

than declining revenues. the greatest
advance in expenses being found in
the transportation account where the
wage increases are mostly reflected.

10 per cent in 1910 to II per cent
IN 1911. In the west, on the other

We no longer write epics-we live

said somewhere, the poet must write
with the belief that the immortal gods
are looking over his shoulder. We no

immortal gods. We have long since
discovered the divinity within our
selves. and so We have flung across
the continents and seas the visible
