SCHOOL CHILDREN TO BE
INSTRUCTED IN GOOD ROADS

Colorado school children will this
year be given instruction on the value
of good roads to the state. This is
the result of the adoption by the last
legislature of an act which sets aside
the second Friday in May of each
year as Good Roads day in the schools.
Mrs. Helen M. Wixon, state super
intendent of public instruction is now
at work compiling booklet which will
be sent to all teachers in the state
outlining the plans for the Good Roads
day. This booklet will also contain
suggestions regarding the observance
of Arbor day. Another pamphlet re-
garding the Good Roads day will prob
ably be issued later.
the chamber of commerce at Grand
Junction, is the father of the Good
Roads day in the schools of Colorado.
At the first convention the Colorado
Good Roads association in Denver a
year ago this last January reso-
luton providing that one day in each
year should be designated as Good
Roads day in the schools was pro-
posed by Shafer and adopted by the
convention. Following this the legis-
lature passed an act making provision
for such day.
The Colorado Good Roads associa-
ton is planning to cooperate with
the school teachers of the state to
make the Good Roads day a success.
1t is intended to show to the younger
generation the value of good roads to
any community or state, and in this
manner it is hoped to create senti-
ment which will keep alive in Colo
RADIO forever the value of good roads
to the state.

Kansas swung into line for Champ
Clark at the Democratic state con-
vention in a manner that leaves no
doubt Of the strength of the speaker
in this state. Resolutions instructing
the entire twenty votes for Clark were
passed unanimously. There never was
minutes doubt of the result. Sweep
ingly the delegates rejected a plank
to send uninstructed delegates to the

This gives Clark Kansas, Missouri

THE COFFEE HABIT.

In aE editorial, of when 1t will not
soon hear the last, The Outlook at
temPts to explain away ,ne n.consist-
eucy between ex-President Roosevelt s
declar tions against a thir1 c..r;n ami
his present willingness 10 accept a
third term. 1t will be remembered
that ir 1904, after being assured of
his cleo ton, Mr.. Roosevelt issued the
toi.uwirg statement:
''On the 4th of March next l shall
have served three and half years,
and this three and half years consti-
tute my first term. The wise custom
which limits the president to two
terms regards the substance and not
the form, and under no circumstances
will be candidate for or accept an
other nomination"
Three days later Mr.. Roosevelt sad:
Il have not changed, and shall not
change, that decision thus announced
The remuneration of the third Term
is now embarrassing and Mr.. Rooso-
velt's spokesman, the Outlook, has un-
dcrtaken to dissolve the Inconsistency
in coffee. 1t says:
In Mr.. Roosevelt's specific case
il is sometimes said that his statement
in 1904 and 1907 that he would not
accept another nomination would make
his acceptance of nomination this
year inconsistent. What Mr.. Roose.
welt said in 1904 and 1907 referred,
OF course, to consecutive third term.
Mr.. Roosevelt believes, although we
do not share his belief, that the set
lied policy of this country makes a
third consecutive presidential term for
any man impolitic, if not improper;
but the Outlook has a better apprcci-
ation of his intelligence than to sup.
pose that he had in 1904 or has now
the slightest idea of defining a {; ird
term except in the way in which We
have here defined it, The situation
may perhaps be made clear by home
ly illustration. When a man says at
breakfast in the morning, No, thank
you, l will not take any more coffee.
it does not mean that he will not take
any more coffee tomorrow morning, ol
next week, or next month, or next
year.
To call this piece of pettifoggile
ingenious would dignity it. 1t is abou;
as absurd an excuse as was ever ad-
varced in defense of an inexcusablc |
Proposition, but the coffee illustra
ton is the most exquisite part of Ills
Intellectual morsel.
Would it not be well for the Out
look to go a step further and tell us
how many cups of coffee Mr.. Roose
va, needs for his second meal. If a
cup and seven-eighths Zone term and
three and one-half years. satisfied MIN |
for breakfast how many cups will he
regard as sufficient for dinner? And
is there supper still ahead of him ! /,
If Mr.. Roosevelt takes two more terms |
now he is not so old but that he might
two more cups for supper. Possibly
the Outlook may be able to reason Cut
Ito its own satisfaction) that the two
term precedent only applies to the frs,
meal and that one is free to drink cof-
\ fee without limit-even to the extent |
of consuming the entire pot-at a
subsequent meal. Since this great |
governmental question has been re-
duced to level of coffee drinking the |
Outlook ought to tell it's readers to
what extent the coffee habit has ta
ken hold upon the ex-president. Is
it possible that it has affected his |
nerves ?-Comm0ner.

TOPEKA, Kas., March 15.-Not
fewer than fifty railroad trains are
snowbound in Nebraska, Colorado and
Kansas today and there is ouly d
small chance Of the blockade being
raised for many hours. With heavy
snow in western Kansas yesterday aft
olnoon the troubles of the railway
companies were increased hundred
fold, and both the Rock Island and
Union Pacific have practically abas-
doned all hope of operating their
trains before Sunday, and perhaps
later. On the Union Pacific every
available man is working to clear me
company's track and the operation of
trains is simmered to a meager l3cal
business.
A special train, made up in Kan
sas City, stands on the Union Pacific
tracks in Topeka awaiting the open
ing of the line to Lincoln, Neb. Nel--
ly 200 passengers, now on this train,
will be taken to Denver over the
Lincoln line.
The opening of direct service to
Denver today is entirely out of qdes-
ton. Between Topeka and Omaha the
road confronts snow drifts four 10
five feet deep. The sunshine Of n few
days ago was followed by heavy
freeze and the snow is frozen to such
an extent that workmen must fight

No trains over the direct Colora Ia

Kansas City Market Letter
tBy J, A. Rickars, Correspondent,

Kansas City Stock Yards, Sept. 2, IoI2.-The beef market took a back turn last week, which was reflected at once in the cattle market. Everything in the steer line except thin upper crust had to stand a cut of I5 to 50 cents. Butcher stuff lost the minimum amount, feeders declined 35 to 50 cents, stockers held close to steady, and veal calves advanced 50 to 75 cents. The market was similar to the market of the two preceding weeks, except that mid dle and low grades of killing steers slipped little faster last week than heretofore, and condi- tions we're such that further losses this month would not be sur prising. The weakness has per meated the whole cattle structure, approaching so near the prime grades that the upward march of even the best steers has been temporarily halted. The supply today is I7,ooo head here, the market steady to weak. Prime natives sold at 10. 50 today, though Io.6o was paid here last week. Grass steers from native territory sell at 6.5o to 8.75. The lower range on grass natives is partly due to the fact that many droves have been topped in previous shipments. A train of Colorado beef steers from Debeque, around HOO pounds, sold at Goo and 6.Io here last week. One hum dred cars quarantines came in today, the market on them still troubled with the same weakness that has governed it for a month prevailing, steers at 4.5o to Goo, cows 3.75 to 4.65.
 Hog run today is $500 head, market strong to 5 higher, top S.8o, bulk 8.55 to 8.75. Receipts at the markets from almost every section, particularly the south west, are so light that strong prices are apt to rule indefinitely ahead. A Missouri feeder re- gently secured two cars of stock hogs in Oregon county, south Missouri, by hard riding. They cost him 6.5o delivered at the railroad.
 Sheep advanced IS to 25 cents last week, while lambs declined similar amount. Receipts today Io,ooo head, market steady on sheep, and IS to 25 higher on lambs. Spring lambs brought 6.85 to 700 today for best, weth- CTS worth up to 4.4o, ewes 3.8o. Feeding stock is a quarter higher than a week ago, and in much re- quest, lambs around 6.25, some feeding yearlings today at 5.25, wethers worth up to 40, breed- ing ewes of quality 4.25.

SHORTAGE OF LIBRARIANS
NOT NOW APPARENT
Junior College Diplomas to Be Issued
to Those Completing Short Course
at state Teachers College, Instead
Of pssrsss-Dssrsss Only For Four.
Year Course.

Des Moines, Jan. 1.-THE Iowa sum-
mer school for librarians is to be aban-
doned, at least for the present year
This was determined by the state
board of education in session here. The
schoo. was established as part Of the
university extension work at time
when. By reason of the establishment
OF SO many Carnegie libraries there
was a shortage of trained Librarians.
Now that Carnegie has got about all
the libraries established there is no
longer need of this special school.
The state board authorized another
change that will interest all the tnou-
sands of former students at the state
normal school, now the State Teach
ers College. There will be no more
degrees given on the two-year ana
three year work at the college, ana IN
stead Of issuing a bacnelor's degree
there will be issued junior college
diploma. This follows the system at
Chicago University and elsewhere. The
degrees will be given as usual on COM
pletion of the four-year course.
The summer school at Cedar Falls
will be conducted as usual and the
state board at the session yesterday
approved the budget and completed the
faculty in accordance with suggestions
by President Seerley.
Reports were heard at the meeting
from Presidents Secretly, Stanton ana
Bowman, all indicating the prosperity
of the three state educational insti-
tutions. All three Of the presidents
were present at the meeting.
