Dedication 1t Parsons VIII be Gala
Occasion.


Parsons, Kan, Nov. 1O.-The gov
ernors Of three states, Missouri, Kan
sas and Oklahoma, have been invited
to be present at the dedication of the
new Katy passenger station here,
which is now nearing completion.
President Schaff and other officials Of
the road have also been invited to
attend.
Governor Hodges has already signi-
fed hts intention of attending the
dedication, and it is believed that
Governor ..-ajors Of Missouri will also
attend. Owing to the fact that the
lieutenant governor of Oklahoma
might take advantage of the absence
of Governor Cruce to liberate a few
prisoners, 1t is considered doubtful II
that executive will accept the COM
mittee's invitation to be present.
The new station is one Of the finest
buildings of the kind in the south
west. The building is three stories
high, with attic, and is of the most
modern, freproof construction The
walls are constructed of hollow tile
and concrete. the first story being fin
fshed in pressed brick, while the other
stories are of stucco finish.
The first story will be used for pas
senger purposes, and the remainder
OF the building will be used for Offices
The old station was destroyed by fire
over year ago.

Fortunate is the one who can eat
anything without suffering the tor
lures of dyspepsia, but as few are SO
fortunate, care should be taken in the
matter of diet. Eating slowly. nasti-
eating the food thoroughly and taking
a short walk after the heavy meal Of
the day will do much towards assisting
digestion. Any grown-up person ought
to know the peculiar foods that do not
agree, and these should be avoided.
When these cOmmon-sense aids fail,
the next thing to do is to take a mild
digestive tonic with laxative properties,

pepsin. 1t has other ingredients that
act mildly on the bowels, which to-
gether form a combination for the ce-
lief of dyspepsia or indigestion that is
unsurpassed.
Its action is to tone or strengthen
the stomach and bowel muscles SO that

happy moment comes all medicine can

is selling its bonds to its home people.
Reno county has been doing the same.
Similar situations may be found in al
most every county in the Kansas
wheat belt.
Instead of sending the bonds back
east, Kansas people have money
enough to spare to invest in thir own
bonds.
In .Kiowa county a bond issue Of
$4,000 for a new court house, was
recently voted. This week when the
bonds were sold there were bids from
well known bond brokers in Chicago,
Kansas City and Topeka and else
where. The bonds were sold to S. D.
Robinett, president of a Greensburg
bank, and the demand from the local
people for the bonds was greater than
can be supplied.

MANY HOLD DEGREES.

Are S58 High School Teachers Univer-
sity Students.
Lawrence, Kan, Nov. 10.-Three
hundred and fifty-eight teachers of
the high schools and academies of
Kansas hold degrees from the Univer-
sity of Kansas. A report issued today
by the K. U. school of education shows
this high total of graduates and gives
other statistics concerning the school
situation of the state.
OF the 1886 teachers included in the
report. 597 have never received de-
grees, while the entire corps repre-
sents nearly every type of training
imaginable.
MANY OF the teachers have failed
to make any preparations for the seri-
Gus work Of teaching points out
Prof. H. w. Josselyn. who had charge
of the bulletin MANY more have
prepared themselves for other profess
stOns and vOcations and have drifted
into teaching. possibly after failing to
make success in their chosen field
of work.
1.-The number of superintendent
without. 80. indicates very clearly the
lack OF any adequate standard of
qualifications for the work of super
intending school system. When the
training OF teachers. superintendents
and principals isIconsidered, it is evil
dent that our high schools are, as a
rule. below the standard in the
preparation of their teachers. It
serves to explain also some Of the
reasons for the lower efficiency Of our
state as compared with some Others"
1t was found that 70 per cent of the
teachers in the ten cities of the first
class were actually teaching the SUBJ
Jects they prepared to teach, while in
other cities, less than half were teach
ing subjects they had prepared for.
IAN utter lack of efficient organ
fzation was found in the assignments
of subjects to the teachers" Professor
Josselyn says. There seems to be ne
in this respect. 1T is hoped that the
material and statistics Of the bulletin
will stimulate the school men Of the
state with a desire to bring about any
changes that are likely to raise the
standard Of teaching efficiency and
school administration in the Kansas
secondary schools"
