DANISH STUDENTS TO VISIT US

Fifty students of the Royal University
Of Copenhagen will sail for America on
May to begin three weeks sight-see-
ing tour of this country. under the pat
ronage of his royal highness Crown
Prince Christian of Denmark. Incidentally
the students win try to earn their way
by giving concerts in a dozen or more
of the leading music centers of the
United States. The fifty students COM
prIse a chorus of as many picked voices
from the Danish Student Singers Society
of Copenhagen, recognized as one of the
best male choruses of Europe. A large

now as economic instead OF medical prob
lens. Pure water and food. plenty OF
fresh air and clean houses and stores and
worlGnOms check disease. II is only a
question Of money spent in prevention.
In 1903 about SSOOO,OO0 was laid out in the
fight against tuberculosis: last year near
~ double that amount was spent and in
1911 even more will be raised by private
subscriptions and. appropriated by cities
for that purpose. But this dread disease
is yielding and growing less. Half a CEN
tury from now it probably will be almost
abolished. The more money that is spent,
the quicker it will vanish. Typhoid.
which used to be even a greater scourge
than tuberculosis, does not cause half as
many deaths now as it used to. The same
is true of almost every other disease.
Rockefeller. Ryan. or Morgan could take
any city in the United States. and simply
by cleaning it up, relieving the over
crowding and make it sanitary. so that
there would be an abundance of fresh air
and sunshine, pure water and food, and
improved hygienic conditions generally,
could add from five to twenty years to
the life of the inhabitants. All that would
be necessary would be plenty of money
for the employment of experts in SANTA
ton and housing and industry, and the
carrying out of their plans along ordinary
business lines.
New Orleans Example.
Thirty years ago yellow fever was the
scourge Of New Orleans. 1t continued to
be until a clergyman the Rev. Beverley
Warner, who died only the other day,
cleaned up that city. He it was who or
ganized the various districts so that all
made a concerted fight against the un-
sanitary conditions which were causing
the trouble. Warner did not know any
thing about medicine, but he was a good
business man. He fumigated houses,
screened Cisterns and oiled cutters. Not
only did he wipe out yellow fever in
New Orleans, but he spent only about
half the money that was subscribed for

er last Saturday. About March first
Roy will move to his own farm that
corners with Dayton Hall, which he

Good Roads Bill Appears.

Representative Issenhuth of Sphinx
has introduced good road bill which
was prepared jointly with vice presid-
ents of the Good Roads league Of
South Dakota, and has their approval,
as it seeks TO improve the condition
of the roads in the rural sections Of
the state, by increasing the revenue
and placing the supervision of the
work in the hands of those connected
with the administrations of counties
and townships who have power to de-
eide on the necessary Improvements
and complete them.
BY this bill the township super
visors will have Jurisdiction over
Improvements on stretches OF road In
cases in which the required expendi-
ture will not he over 5000 and accord.
ing to the new bill, all work will be
let by contract, bids received and
opened and decided upon by mai
orty vote Of the township electors.
The county commissioners are to have
charge of all improvements costing
over 500 and the same plan will be
followed as to the receiving Of bids
and letting of contracts.
The revenue for the 'improveIaants
is to be levied and collected by the
county. tfeasurers, and app0rtioned TO
the townships by them. The fund
will be kept separate as = road fund
of the townships. The object of
changing the supervision is apparent,
as thereby the work will be taken
from the hands OF the district road
supervisors, as under the present
plan, by whom the work is more often
neglected than pushed through as
should be done.
Another important feature of the
good roads bills is that 1t provides
that the state shall assume the ex-
pense for repairs to roads, on which
state lands join or are butting In any |
manner. 1t also provides for tax OF |
five dollars year on autos, such tax
to 60 to the road fund.
