RRoIPRooITY in the automobile business
was thought to be fine thing when the
Legislature passed law allowing owners
outside of the state to use, free of charge
for fifteen days. our fine roads. But the
objection that was put up at the time but
which was swept aside as not worth
noticing, has already shown its weight.
The state department which looks after
automobiles has discovered that machines
run through New Jersey under the fifteen
days clause on which no tab is kept and
there Is no doubt that there are large
numbers Of autos which are operating
under the reciprocity measure which pay
no more attention to the fifteen days re
striction than If 1t was not in existence
And there is apparently no way to get in
touch with them. The superintendent of
motor vehicles is preparing law which
he hopes will correct the evil. This pro.
posed law will require garage owners and
dealers to keep q record of all machines
which go In and out of their places of
business, both as to the date when the
machine entered and as to the time 1t was
taken out and by whom. This also will
enable owners to discover If any I'M
authorized person has taken out cars.
RELATIONS with the Republican party
are severed by former State Senator Ever
EFT Colby In letter to county chairman
DalrYmple, In which Mr.. Colby resigns as
chairman of the Republican Executive
Committee Of West Orange. In his letter
Mr.. Colby states his reasons for his action
His letter is as follows:
II herewith tender my resignation as
chairman OF the Republican Executive
Committee Of West Orange. / resign be-
cause | am no longer In sympathy with
the Republican party, its policies, its
leadership, or Its methods. and because
feel that, as an organization, 1t has failed
to represent the wishes of the rank and
file OF Its membership. Feeling this as
do, no longer have right either to re-
main one of the party leaders or partici-
pate In the primaries, when know Ishall
oppose the party ticket at the polls.
This settles the question of where Mr.
Colby will be In the present campaign.
He was reported to have been considering
entering the race for United States Sena-
tor, but, so far as the Republican party is
concerned. he Ia out of that contest. He
may determine to be a candidate on some
other ticket. He frankly says he is no
longer In sympathy with the Republican
party, hence there is no reason for any
member Of that organization to be in
sympathy with him. Former Governor
Stokes is a candidate for United States
Senator. While he was an ardent Roose-
welt man he is still Republican and is in
sympathy with that party.

EDMONTON PUTS BAN
 ON THE SkYSCRAPER
CITY COUNCIL WILL PUT A LIMIT ON STRUCTURES OF TEN
 STORIES.

Edmonton. Alta, Aug. 17.-Edmon- ton will not become a city of archi- tectural monstrosities, commonly call ed sky-scrapers, unless the clause in it's building bylaw adopted at the last meeting of the council is re- pealed. The new order limits the height of buildings to ten stories. The city fathers believed this legislation advisable in view of the fact that there is more actual construction and development in Edmonton today than in any other city of the 50,000 class oH the American continent.
 Permits issued in July involve a totaPl expenditure of S1 1,494 ,330, as compared with $4T4,9o9 for the safne month in 1911, while the cost of build ings for which permits have been is sued since January l. amounts to s9 ,192, as against $3,672, ,260 for the F months of 1911. It is expected the total for this year will be about $14- 000.000.
 The Edmonton Board of Education is arranging to expend $1 100000 for 12 school buildings, including $250,- GOO for sites, while the municipality will eXpend several million dollars in public buildings and other civic inn proyements. Considerable capital from Great Britain and tine tinted States also is being invested in busi- ness and office buildings, manufacthr. ing concerns and dwelling houses. c. H. w. Pearson of Glasgow Scotland, announces his principals will erect store and office buildings costing fully $1 100000 next year, and in addition the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company will build a hotel, costing S75O,0OO, and a union station, estimat- ed to cost $400,000.

ImprODement in Rural Life

 People in even the two thousand districts where schools have been con solidated are only beginning to real ize the increased educational opporiu- mites of the long summer vacation with the teachers and parents coop erating to train the boys and girls into actual management of the farm and farm home, and into the functions and duties of citizenship. 1t is quite as important in the development of a farm people that system be put into the training of the boy in the every day and yearly management of the farm and the girl in the organization and management of the farm home as that they shall be trained in the traditional school subjects and in the book technique relating to the farm and tine farm home The farm boy and girl, instead of being treated merely as chure boy and dishwiper, WILL De AfdlNpu luiO lne dlL Ol pldH- ming and managing by being given definite bit of land or a definite bit of poultry or routine of housework to be responsible for and to make pri- vate earnings from. If occasionally the father or the mother goes off for a few days of play and leaves Tom or Annie to manage things and devise remedies for their own mistakes, Tom and Annie will not only be laying up grateful experiences for their own fu- tufe, but they will acquire a more lively respect for their fathers and mothers ability. incidentally, father and mother will be able to renew their youth and to save themselves from the spiritual galling which often follows on being too long in harness.

life wheer vital things can be dealt with in a helpful and unifying way in stead of in a sectarian and dividing way.
 Civil life in the open country had for merly no center The rural school, the dennmnational church. the coun- try store, the country creamery, and the distant village each located with out reference to the other, divided the center of interest But the consoli- dated rural school creates a vital cen ter in the middle of a definite large district. In half generation 1t makes acquainted nearly all the active forces of the district. 1t makes pos sible civic consciousness, and civic organization follows. Under typical conditions country life league fed crates all the collective activities of the adults of the community without interfering with the self-government Of the separate societies, clubs and granges, or with the cooperate organ izations, as the creamery, the coop erative store, etc. These civic organ izations can also cooperate in rela- ton to the larger community by send ing delegates to the country life fed eration to the county horticultural so- ciety, to the county woman's clubs, or the county fair association. So, from mutual experiences and needs, they can begin to work out together the larger plan for cooperating to im- prove crops, schools and homes all over tine country.
 On the other hand, all this central. iziug of school civic and other inter ests will react to cultivate greater ability among farmers and to height en their powers for increasing tIhe quality and quantity of farm produce. With this will naturally come increas- ing comforts and increasing opportu- mites for neighhorhood and country wide intercourse by means. of better roads, automobiles and interurban trolleys. The homes will be larger, better equipped with labor-saving de- vices, more comfortably furnished and more beautifully .environed. There will then be no toil-worn farmer or farmers wife to retire. to the vii lage, and their sons and daughters will gravitate to the city only as a last resort.

Thirty-two hun dred and seven machines were bought in the States in 1911 and 1t is expect ed that more than 5000 will come in this year. The average value of cars shipped into the Dominion by Ameri- can manufacturers was $t,88T
 English manufacturers shipped 240 cars, of an average value of $1.309. to Canada last year The foregoing figures do not include tires and ac- cessories. Canadian manufacturers and American builders assembling cars in Canada also report increases in business, saying they have no diff ficulty in disposing Of any vehicle that comes up to the mark.

DECLINE CARNEGIE'S OFFER OF A LIBRARY
EDMONTON, ALTA, DOES NOT RE GARD $6o,ooo AS SUFFICIENT

Edmonton, Alta, Aug. 17.-Sixty thousand dollars is not sufficient in ducement to the members of the board to carve the name of Andrew Carnegie on the slab of stone over the entrance of d library tlhat would meet the requirements of the city of Edmonton. Accordingly they adopt ed a resolution at their last execu- tive meeting declining the offer and conditions and turned the matter over to A. G. Harrison, a member of the board of commissioners, for final disposal. MT. Carnegie's original of fer was based upon a population of about half of what it is today. When informed that the city has a popula- ton of 5S,3S3, according to d civic census completed on July 6, MT. Car negie replied that he felt compelled to take the figures complied a year ago by the Dominion enumerators and would limit his grant to $60,000. The library board has recommend- ed to the commissioners that they consider the question of submitting a bylaw to the rate-payers for the raising of sufficient funds to con struct the first unit of a municipal owned public library

1 am not sure that the barrenness of the butterfly passion of our wealth fer class is wholly to be deplored from racial standpoint, says Wlllet NJ Hays in Womans World The children whose birthright of constitu- tional energy comes to them in a burned out condition are no more de sirable in our racial stock than those children of the slums whose birth right of constitutional energy Is inner ited in worn-out condition. The harm which comes is not from the fact af barrenness, but from, the m fluences radiating into the healthier planes of our social life.

Money raised by state and possibly by federal tax should be used in a goodly portion to pay for the cost of improvement of the common roads throughout the open country-hun- dreds of millions annually to put our country roads in order, that we may have economical production of farm products and more splendid pro duction of farm folks. It is gradually dawning upon the republic that, un- der the economic conditions which too rapidly accumulate the annual in crease of national wealth in cities, the farmers cannot be expected to pay for more than a part of the nee essary cost of the roads and schools needed by the people of the open coun- try.
 Along with the roads, Che large nee Nssary public expenditure in the coun- try is for schools. Heretofore the one-room school in it's innocency and often inefficiency was not in position to demand more than a very modest sum for the simplest form of very elementary instruction. But during thit ittet ~ NCdlSs III lMO lHOucdHu districts nearly as large as townships, the rural school has been emancipat- ed from the one-room schoolhouse. The new plan exchanges seven isolat- cd oneroom school buildings and mex perlenced young teachers, for a cen tral modern school building with five or more well equipped teachers. The number of pupils suddenly rises from the 120 to 150 or 160; two years of high school work are added A prin- cipal from the agricultural college or other agricultural school adds to the traditional school course numerous vii tai subjects relating to the business of farming. An assistant likewise adds instruction in home making. These two teachers are employed the year round and in a wonderful way change the farm and home duties of the boys and girls.
 In winter, instruction is given in the school with hooks and laboratory. In summer, remarkable apprenticeship is set going under the combined guid- ance of parents and teachers. Corn club contests, tomato growing con tests, cooking and sewing contests, a

The sense of ra- cial fitness, racial pride, anu racial joy seems to be on the decline-in other words, we are confronting a race suicide in the best American stock and a survival of the unfit
 May we not hope that social sci ence and the church will join hands with the divine part of human instinct in carrying to the consciences of our American stock the truth that race suicide is not only morally degrading to the individual, but also highly un- patriotic to the nation; and that rom racial standpoint, it is indefensible for those with good heredity to leave child-bearing mainly to the races anl families of least worth People oi really inferior racial blood have the hest reason in favor of race suicide People of superior blood, if the facts were SO brought home to them by records and tabulations as Co cult

Second Mysterious Case in connec-
 ton With Church Charge.

Rocky Springs, Colo, Aug. IT, That the entire family, with the ex- ception og a monthsold child, of the Rev. Gustav Latzke, pastor of the local German Lutheran church, was deliberately poisoned is the belief of Dr. T. B. Wilson, coroner who is in- vestigating the sudden death of Mir. Latzke, Mrs. Latzke, two of their chil dren-a daughter, aged 9, and a son. aged 12.
 In standardization of his belief that the Latzkes are victims of some one who hates clergymen, Dr. Wilson points to the sudden death of the Rev Mir. Hutto's wife and two children by poison two years ago when the family were en route to Idaho after Mir Hutto had given up the pastorate of the German church here. On the jour- Mrs. Hutto and her children partook of food that had been presented to them just before leaving the city.

Use NewbrO's Herpicide in Time
 and You Won't Need Any False Hair

Wearing artificial hair is harmless deceit of which many ladies are guilty These women are all objects for sym pathy rather than criticism.
 Early neglect in the care of the scalp has caused the loss of SO much hair that their personal appearance is sadly marredA To correct this defect they resort to artificial hair.
 Most ladies would resent any impu- tation of personal carelessness and neglect And yet very many women permit their natural hair to become so dull, brittle and lustreless that it looks no better than the artificial.
 All this is as unfortunate as it is unnecessary. Hair that is unsightly or thin may usually be attributed to the malerolent activity of the dan. druff germ. This vicious germ bur rows down into the hair fohicle. short ly destroying it's life. The hair be-

Maxey writes that while he realizes that this is large sum of money and most flattering offer he feels that under the circumstances it would be sacrifice to accept It. He relates that he is now putting down ties on the street railroad of Plttsburg and on the Pittsburg and Lake Erie road, with a positive promise of an early order from the dormer. These facts, tanen in connection with assurances from the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany that 1t will use the tie on it's lines and from various other reliable sources, also it's practicability and superior merit. followed by a propo- ition to lease the tie west of the Mis- slssippi river and in Canada on a royalty basis, he says should be well considered before giving up the con trolling interest in the patent even for a million dollars. Anticipating that developments might result in a proposition from the railroad syn dicate above referred to to bay the Tatent outright, MT. Maxey suggests in his letter that Messrs. Kinney and Vaughan ascertain as soon as possi- ble what the stockholders in Hot Springs will sell their holdings for. then he and the board of directors may be better prepared to consider an offer should IL come, to sell the eptire property The local stock holders are. therefore, requested to call at the office at 7iiis Central ave : nue and state the figures at which they would dispose of their stock, if willing to sell.
