to make the most of the inestimabla
wealth that the nation has entrusted
to them. But they cannot do it all.
Instead Of being criticized by those
who have no tirst-hand knowledge of
their work, and discouraged by appar-
ent difference, they deserve to be
cheered by intelligent interest and
stimulated by close acquaintance with
parents, and by the visits of parents
to the schools.
If, then, you have never darkened
the door of the building where your
child studies, what right have you to
complain of his lack of progress? DO

the right kind of food and enough of
it, and is otherwise properly cared
for.
SO, to, with the man who owns a
farm that he has put in charge of a
superintendent He is not content to
rely on the superintendent reports.
He wants to see for himself whether
the work is being properly planned
and the soil wisely TILED; and so he
visits the place whenever he can, and
talks things over with his man.
But when it comes to children-pos-
sessions that this man and this wo-
man value above everything else in
the world-they turn them over un-
-auestioningly to managers whom they
had only a small part in hiring, and
whom they may never have seen, and
allow year after year to pass without
ever paying a visit to the shop where
these managers are doing their i'm
portant work-in other words, the
schools.
The years in school are the most
m~omentious in the child's whole life.
The farm is now in the hands of the
superintendent, who will determine
whether the soil is to become truly
fertile and remain productive through
a long future, or whether it is to be
specifically cultivated, for a mere
snowy and temporary crop. 1t is d
time when every step OF the child's
progress should be watched by the
parents, and when the lessons and
daily influences of the schoolroom
should be supplemented by intelligent
cooperation in the home.
No body of men and women in the
country stand on a higher plane than
the teachers in the public schools.
They work hard, unselfshly striving

THE HOUSEWIFE AS A "RISk"

At a recent convention of insurance
men, the subject of good and bad
risks anne up for discussion, and it
was voted unanimously that the house
wife offers the remotest chance OF
profit to the insurance companies.
Long hours and much worry, it is
said, combine to make the housewife
the least desirable OF all risks" in
the parlance of the insurance world.
Yet there is no domain in which
the inventive genius of man has work.
ed to better advantage than the do
main OF the housewife. Invention after
invention has been marketed to lessen
household drudgery. More than half
the peddlers who assail the doors of
city dwellers are armed with. contrap-
tons hat will do some form of kitchen
work while the housewife sits down
and reads the fashion news. The pages
OF women's magazines TEEN with ad.
v~ertisements Of labor saving devices,
from vacuum cleaners to potato peel
ers. Paper cooking bags have been
devised. which are thrown away after
the food has been cooked in them, in
order that the housewife may be spar

Apparently. with all the modern
kitchen machinery at her direction.
the housewife should be able to get
through her work with a minimum OF
time and e1ort-and yet here come
the insurance men with the doleful
statement that she IL the poorest ply

Evidently there Is something wrong.

TEST SHIPMENT SUCCESSFUL

The good ship Peerless" with the
barge Red Wing in tow both loaded
to the gunwale with cement, locked
at the Western Cold Storage Ware
house, Illinois Central Pier, No. 2,
East South Water st. Chicago, one
day last week for the first time, com
pleting the alLwater route from La
Sale and thereby demonstrating that
the long disused Illinois and Mich,
gan Canal is still navigable.
No serious difficulty was encounter
ed en- route. The channel however,
narrowed considerably at different
points but under the guidance Of
Pilot Schuler of the Morton Line, the
heavily laden vessels safely ncgotiat-
ed them. Shallow spots, at which
soundings showed considerably less
depth than the necessary six feet,
caused the vessels to 'grate" on the
bottom of the canal, but no actual
stoppage occurred.
The experiment was conducted by
the Chicago Portland Cement Com.
pany, Chicago, at the suggestion OF
the La Sale Commercial Club, La
Sale, and many Illinois Valley manu-
facturers who are keenly interested in
the development Of the inland water
ways OF Illinois and proved beyond
question, the feasibility Of a plan
under way to establish a regular water
water route between La Sale and
Chicago.
Our plant has been situated on the
Vermillion river, three miles south Of
La Sale for fifteen years said Nor
man ID. Fraser, President Chicago

now that we have succeeded in reach
ing Chicago by water"
I'VE, of course, joined in the gen
eral effort which has long been made
by the manufacturers in that section
OF the state for the Improvement Of
the Illinois and Michigan Canal but
the legislature is slow to nov in the
matter, so W considered a test ship
ment advisable and willingly assumed
the expense II incurred"
Asked what bearing the success OF
the experiment would have on the
future plans Of the parties interested,

legislature on the ground of expediency.
We characterize this machine as a COM
binatlon Of self-sceking political trick

purposes and sacrifice the peace and
welfare of the state to further their
selfish interests. They foment dissen-
slons among the people, nourish hatreds,

Education.

No other public work is so important
or so far-reachlnG In Its effects, as edu-
cation. We are Justly proud OF the high
standard OF instruction that has beer
attained in our free public schools, and
we earnestly support all measures call
culated 10 maintain this standard, or to
raise 1t to q still higher plane While
we boast OF the fact that Utah ranks
second among tho states in amount al
money expended per capita for educa
tion. yot we are reminded that this may
be partly due 10 our being In the midst
OF an era of building fine school houses
We recommend, in the Interest OF a
higher standard of instruction, that the
salaries OF teachers be not sacrificed for
ostentatious or expensive buildings and
needless equipment.
=, We favor n non partisan administra-
tion OF our schools: that this may be
permanently assured we recommend an
amendment to the state constitution
making the office Of superintendent OF
public instruction appointive by a nom
partisan state board OF education.
We are proud of our state university
and agricultural college and of the high
rank these institutions have taken in
advanced education and vocational train
ing: We favor liberal appropriations for
their support, that their valuable work
may effectively continue to aid In up
building the commonwealth.

Taft's Administration.

We cast no aspersion on the personal
character OF President Taft; he has
neither the inclination nor the will TO
do evil. An easy going man in siren
uous times he has been described by an
eminent Republican senator from Iowa
as "a large. amiable body, completely
surrounded by persons who know exactly
what they want"
We simply criticise his administrs ton
as g. harvest time for predatory wealth,
an epoch of unparalleled extravaganza,
a period of great promises upfuflled and
Of pressing needs dsresarded
We call attention TO the fact that,
as q candidate four years ago. the presi
dent declared the tariff schedule to be
"ind defensiole" and pledged his word
that tariff revision should be immediate
with a substantial revision downward" !"
and that he would "see to 1t that the
pNghted faith OF the party on This sub
ject. In letter and in spirit, is observed" !"
We also call attention TO the fact that
after four years ''the plighted faith OF
the party" has not been kept; that the
president has vetoed every measure pre-
scented for downward revision and that
he Endorsed tho Infamous Payne-Aldrlch
tariff as 'the best law OF tho kind ever
ma sSed +"
