IMMENSE POWER PROJECT
AVAILABLE ON MISSOURI

Pierre, s.. ID, Aug. 80.-Agitation has
been commenced for reviving b pow
or project Ut Little Eend on the Mis-
souri, SO miles northwest OF Pierre. The
river at that POINT has q LOOT or AZ
miles, with the. distance eros the neck
only 1900 yards. If q canal acould be
cut through at that point /. s. natural
fall OF is feet would be secured In the
distance OF 1000 yards.
Two years ago a survey was made
OF the project on behalf OF Hughes,
Erlly and Stanley counties, and 1t was
found a feasible project to harness the
Missouri at this point, and by the con-
struction OF q barrier across the river
at the north side OF TIE neck and be-
low the point OF diversion where the
stream cut through the sha1e, leaving
firm banks seven-eighths OF a mile
apart, practically doubling the fall OF
18 feet.
The estimate OF expense OF such a
project was prohibitive to some extent,
for the engineers figured on the earth
being removed from the canal by team
and grading. The war department,
since that date, has consented that the
material may be removed automatically
and deposited In a chute behind Emile
yenient spot nearby. This would re-
move some heavy expenses of h cut.
There are negotiations on foot now
for the proposition by which a single
concern, with q 80 years contract. may
take the matter OF development In
charge.

Trustees and X E A

The plan to add a department of
trustees to Kentucky Educational AS
ISOLATION is commendable and every
trustee in the county should attend the
meeting of the Association at Louis
vile, April 80.
Our County and Circuit Courts now
have their associations as do the sher-
ifs, circuit and county judges, county
and commemorative attorneys. They
have found it advantageous to meet
and discuss among themselves the
problems common to them all. planning
legislation and administrative reforms,
and adopting as far as may be, a de-
sirable uniform system. If it is impor-
tant that these officials should meet
annually for official conferences, how
much more vitality important is it that
the men entrusted with the control of
our public schools should work out
their problems in concert. The State

A Un'ucky Year For

The year 1918 will prove an un-
lucky one for all towards, cheats
sneaks, idlers and MASTERS.
If you neglect Your response
bility you'll pay the penalty of
inefficiency.
If you squander your hours and
your powers, indulge in excuses
deny Your body sufficient sleep
exercise and care, you will lose
your strength and health.
If you lie. betray trust and
break your word, your name will
be smirched with disgrace.
If you make no effort to i'm
prove your position or broaden
your mind, a more ernest and
eager and deserving man will
dispossess you from your job.
But 1913 will be a happy, won
dertul, treasure-laden, prosper
GUS year for all who strive keen
ly and clearly.
Bad luck is a matter of char
acter-not of calender. Super
stition is lucious by the light of
electricity. All the wicked spir-
its are in the grogshop. The ev-
il eye is watching from the front
row at the musical comedy.

attitudes. We are great stall

cause it is our will to be so. Our

Superintendent has notified the people
of Kentucky that at last the success or
failure of the administration will de-
pend upon the kind of men they elect
AS trustees and how they account for
themselves in the administration of the
local school affairs. Here then is no
small measure of responsibility assum-
ed.
/ Each local board encounters its pc
culiar emil arrasments End problems
but the chances are that when the
trustees go to that meeting. they will
find there some one who has met and
solved these very problems, while they
can give like aid to others. There are
questions of school legislation to be
considered at the association meeting.
The trustees can bring into their con-
sideration the trustees viewpoint and
and that of his constituency, to sup
plement and modify the professional
aspect, as it is presented to the teach
er and superintendent.
There is this helpful exchange of ex-
perience, but there is still the better
part that of revitalized interest to be
acquired by contact with others engag-
ed in the same work and listening to
addresses by school experts. We haz-
ard the expectation that every trustee
who attends the X. E. A. will return
home enthusiastic over his work, feel
ing that his is an office to be proud of,
and instead of the gratuitous service
he performs being burden in the fu-
ture, it will be his pleasure.
AS for the attendance of the teach
ers, we can only add that while the av-
erage wage of the teacher in Kentucky
is not what it ought to be, we have lit
tie sympathy with the teacher who
has not enough professional interest
and spirit to attend a professional
gathe irg and so help himself.
