Horse Sense For Five and Ten
Cents, at the Grand

Ralph P. Collins. graduate of a stand
ard school of horsemanship. will place
his 2-year-old farm colt on the stage.
and show some common sense funda-
mental lessons in horse training.
Being most profoundly impressed with
the appalling list Of disasters which occur
every year among our people. and also
fully believing that nearly all OF these
accidents are caused by the ignorance Of
the drivers of the correct fundamental
principles of horse training. and by lack
of proper training of the horses. Mr..
Collins has been led to make this sub
iect Of study for the last few years. and
is now qualified to demonstrate the cor
rect methods Of training horses for
general usefulness.
Bring your families to the Grand next
Wednesday evening. May z, and you will
be presented with a most useful and
entertaining demonstration in borseman-
ship. Mr.. Collins. our respected citizen.
will appear on the stage with real.lve
colt of his own training. in addition to the
regular performance, without extra
charge. -Advt,

THE PEOPLES FORUM |
One Of the Reasons Why Am OPP
posed to MIR. North as School
Director

Certain parties are circulating the
statement that | am opposing Paul North
for school director because of his religious
beliefs. Nothing is more false. No man
can be more willing than l to let every
citizen of our free country take his own
path to Heaven.
1t is not Mr.. North's beliefs. Lut some
of his actions, that has forced me to OBJ
iect to him on the school board. The
school board might, in time of an epidem-
ic, become an important factor In pre-
venting the spread of an epidemic in a
community. Mr.. North has placed him
self on record as opposed to those meas
ures by which the enlightened civilized
world is preventing the spread of disease.
Just recently, when measure for the
prevention of tuberculosis was before the
legislature, Mr.. North. with most of the
members of the society to which he be-
longs, went out to the home of our Rep
resentative. Mr.. West. to influence him
to vote against the measure.
Last year the Owens bill for the estab-
ishment of Department of Public
Health. wss before Congress. As things
now stand. if your hogs are sick you can
send to the Department of Agriculture
and all the resources of the Government
are at your command to stop the disease
If your children are sick with some new
and unknown disease, you call for Gov
ernment aid in vain. The men who be-
lieye in the prevention of disease, were
supporting the Owens bill because we be-
lieve that children are of more import
ance than hogs. A year ago this winter
Mr.. North advertised man to speak al
the Methodist church against this bill
Mr.. North introduced the speaker ane
endorsed his opposition to the Owens bill
All who believe in the enaotion Of san
itary laws, and their enforcement, mus
realize that it is dangerous to place a mar
like Mr.. North. who opposes these meas
ures. in place of such authority as tina
of school director. Not his religious be-
lief. but his opposition to scientific sani
tary laws. is the ground of objection It
him.
There are other reasons for my oppo
sition to Mr.. North, but this one il
enough.

Are The Schools of This City What
They Might Be?

As similar conditions exist now as a
year apo, it NAV not be out of place TO
reproduce letter written for the Enter
prise at that time:
There appears to be very wide
spread doubt as to whether the taxpay-
ers and the pupils OF our schools, especial
ly the high school. are getting satisfac-
tory results. The people universally
want the most practical and useful
teachings. perhaps not so many frills and
trimmings: pure gold and not mere sur
face gliding. Are we getting these?
And if not, why not?
Most of our young folks should be fitted
for practical life work as agriculturists.
tradesmen, merchants, etc. Not one in
100 ever expects to go to a University.
therefore the time spent in the So Jailed
higher branches is almost absolutely lost
and the taxpayers money. goes the same
way.
An easy way to test the actual useful
knowledge attained by the pupils would
be public exhibition, say in the Audi
torium of the high school building. because
Of the olack boards, the examination to
be conducted and program selected by
a committee outside of the faculty, for
instance in spelIing-a page of Webster
or any book; geography-bounearies of
countries or states; neutrality-suspicious.;
grammar-correction of improperly con-
structed paragraphs. The questions to
be propounded to be known only to the
committee. This is merely a suggestion.
The cut and dried examinations usually
followed Indicate nothing except desire
to make good in that particular line;
proves absolutely nothing.
| would not be afraid to guarantee the
collection of $50 to be distributed as
prizes IN such an examination.
This is not intended as criticism par
ticularly of our board of education but of
the system. There may be too much
superficiality. too much following of pre-
cedents and too little common horse
sense"
My offer to raise money for prizes was
not accepted. Mr.. Ward said the boys
were tired and would prefer postpone
ment of the examination. There is no
way of telling whether they were afraid
to face the music or not. The offer holds
good.
At meeting of 200 prominent educa-
tors of the state held in Boulder. April
ID, resolution was passed demanding
the abolition of all interseholastic athletics
including football. baseball. basketball
and all other competitive games.
Next Monday is the time for candidates
to express the stand they will take, SO
that the people may know where athletics
will come in and whether they believe the
mothers are capable of teaching the girls
to sew and cook.
may BE old fogyish. perhaps behind
the times, but with many others do not
approve of spending the peoples hard
earned money for superfoialites.

the tickets For Athletics" as against
