VIII Enforce Good Road Laws

Now that active work on the con-
struction of good roads 10 being COM
menced in almost every county in the
state the Colorado Good Roads Associa-
tion has undertaken 4 campais1 to Sc
cure the enforcement of some of the
laws now on the statute books, which
relate to the proper care of state high
ways.
One of these laws in paticular is 60
ing to receive immediate attention. 1t
relates to the overflow of irrigation
bitches.
The overflow from irrigation bitches
is one of the worst factors to be con-
tended with in keeping roads in first
class shape. The law against this is
stringent, butin every county in the
state little or no effort has been made
to stop it. 1t is the intention of the
Colorado Good Road Association to
urge the State Highway Commission
to enforce this law in every county in
the state. and if necessary to bring
into court those who allow the roads
thus to be destroyed.
At meeting of the executive CON-
mitee of the Colorado Coed Roads
Association held in Colorado Springs
recently it was the unamous opinion
that this law should be enforced and
an active campaign will be waged in
an endeavor to arouse public senti-
ment so as to make the maintenance of
good roads the aim and object of all
in better highways in Colo
RADIO.
In an effort to bring about the en-
forcement of the law above referred
to the aid of every commercial and
good road organization in the state
is to be asked. The action of the
Colorado Good Roads Association in
urging the enforcementof this law up
on the State Highway Commission will
be brought before organizations of
every kind and character that are in
terested in the care and improvement
Of the roads of the state, and they
will be asked to join with the good
roads association in the request made
to the state officials.

WANTED: MEN
A Two-Minute Sermon.
[BY MONROE NARKLEY1

The president of big automobil,
company, in writing about bnsines.
success, says:
The business man deals with
five M's-Money, Material, Ma
chinery. Merchandise and Men. 1t
is not 20 hard to get money, mater
ials, machinery or merchandise.
Each Of these is a given quantity,
and with each and all a given result
can be obtained. The big thing is
to get men"
Man is the varying quantity.
Acertain amount of money will buy
certain amount of goods. A machine
will turn out just SO much work in
just so much time.
But mamie may do nothing, or
he may set new limits to possibility.
The greatest need of the business
world is not men-but Men.
The man that's wanted is the Man
with the M 20 big that it can be seen
above the crowd.
The average yonng man, failing to
realize this, ranges himself in line
level with the other little ms. and be-
comes mere machine or perhaps ma
terial or merchandise to be bartered
for money.
Meanwhile the Captains of Industry
sent forth their messengers as did Jer-
amiah of old, saying:
run ye to and fro through the
streets of Jerusalem, ard seek in
the broad places thereof if ye can
find man!'
Not only in the business world but
in every realm of Life the crying need
of the world may be expressed by the
two words-WANTED, MEN!
Men with the soul of honor beaming
from their faces and the fire of pur-
pose flashing from their eyes.
Men whose word is as good as their
bond, and whose tbond is backed and
buttressed by an integrity which nc
fortune can 'bribe and no temptation
can shake.
Men whose creed is Conscience,

Attest:
Class Of 1913 Finish Work
Secretary.


UThe class Of the Sedgwick County
High School closed their work with the
Alumni Banquet in the Opera House on
Saturday night. The work Of the last
week, while entirely different from all
of their other work was carried out
in IN efficient and painstaking man
ner and each one Of the graduates did
their work well. The Graduation Ex-
ercises in the High School Auditorium
on Friday night was attended by a
packed house andthe program was in
tensly interesting even the address Of
Professor DeLong Of the State Univer-
sity on the subject "What Kind of
. Man Shall Ny Boy Be" altho many
Of US are wondering just what the Pro-
fessor would have his boy be and rath-
er feel that the class OF 1918 have =
task of huge proportions before them
if they are to right all the wrongs Of
the world that the professor depicted.
We are inclined to feel that the profes-
sor was not so much of an optimist as
he expected to proove himself to be
but we are of the belief that the Glass
of 1918 after their four years work in
the High School will go out into the
world well equppied for the sterner
things of life and whether the next few
years shall be acquiring still higher
education at our colleges or doing the
harder tasks of life that they will do
their work with credit to themselves

~ REAT changes are taking
III place all over the world
in methods Of education.
The former things are passing
away and the new things are
better than the old. A school of
organic education has been es-
tablished during the last two
years in Fairhope, Ala, and the
idea Is now being talked and
spread broadcast by progressive
individuals.
Marietta Johnson, the principal
of this parent school, has given
her life and vitality to making
the nature method success.
Lately she has been at Green
wieh, Conn, giving demon
stration of her methods to over
so pupils and 26 adults 1t is
her ambition and hope to make
this demonstration so convinc-
ing that public schools will fol-
low her methods OF instruction.
Here are some Of Mrs. John
sons sane ideas:
I'VE know that many children
fail in school. We know that
many grow Indifferent and un-
happy. We know that some are
not strong enough to meet the
requirements. Then why in
the name of education should
we eontinde the treatment when
the response is unsatisfactory
