The Bulletin sent out last week to
over 5000 teachers in the 80 counties
tributary to the Western Kansas State
Normal and inviting them to come to
the school here fer a few weeks to
better themselves on special subjects
to make their schools more attractive,
was complete and gratifying surprise
to our people, showing the Admins
tration and its friends were doing all
possible to build up our school.
It talked Of Domestic Science and
Art, Eloeutiop, Drawing and music
for the girls; BIZ cksmithiDg and Man
usl training for the boys, ard seeing
the working Of the Model District
school, how to make their school the
more to make their school attractive,
everything pointing, az urged by Re-
gent Lewis In her Commencement =
dress here, to make the country Dis
trict school more attractive, making 1t
q Socisl centre, where students, pat
rons and teacher can meet every Fri
day evening for pleasure.
Last Sundays Star prints an inter
view with President Hackney Of the
State school Board in which he tells
the same thing, and says:
''School teachers who are graduates
from the State Normal schools must
be qualified to handle the Community
problems OF Social Centre problems of
their districts. the boys scout and girl
band movements and the proper
regulation and foster Of the play
or ouRd idea. Not SO much base and
foot ball but for more general recrea-
ton and entertainment.
This is to be the new order Of things
at the big Teachers Schools. under
the new Board OF Administration and
the New Ideas IN School ana Commu
nifty management will be a regular
part OF the curriculum of the school,
beginning next fall.
We want our school teachers from
the State schools to be more than just
ordinary pedagogues. We want them
to be Of Real service to the communi-
ty as we'll as to the children Of the
district. The school teacher can Do
More for improving the community
spirit, the pleasures Of the patrons OF
the school and can be Of real help in
working out the Countrywide problems
OF this state. That's what We want
them to do and keep it up, SO the Nor
mai school is going to train the teach
eFs along that line so they can take
leao IN these community problems and
get them started.
The Board announced that the Fac
ulty Of the Normal schools would be
made an ADVISORY Board to All Teach
ers and County supeEintendents in Kan
sas. Whenever there is school prob
len that comes up in any district the
teacher or Co. supt. is invited to ask
the State Normal Faculty about it and
the big school will investigate the case
and try TO work out solution. The
school will also undertake TOT supply !
teachers specially qualified for country |
school work and handle different school /
problems and social center work
1t is more and more evident that the |
Faculties of the State Educational In
stltutiohsswil have much different and
more work under the new Regents.
And as President Hackney said when
here: This will no longer Faculty
school, but one for the scholars and /
for the People, and if any Of the Fac
ulty didn't want to help the Board run
it that way they had better resign
and hunt another job elsewhere.

MICE'S THIEVERY
FOOLED UNCLE SAN

New York, May 26.-Stamps have
been disappearing from the Yonkers
postoffice for the last three years.
Postoffice inspectors were sent from
Washington and secret service agents
worked weeks to run down the THE.
Every clerk in the office was watched
on duty and off, but to no purpose. The
stamps continued to disappear.
The mystery became SO battling after
SIS worth of stamps had disappeared
III a short time that the stamp clerk
was called on to make good the short
age. He demurred, but on learning i,
was $75 or his job, he gave up.
Workmen began today to tear down
wall in the rear of the postofrce. In
the wall the thieves were found. Mice
had built themselves nest out of the
stolen stamps.
/ The clerk who made good the S.
shortage, will ask the government C
reimburse him.

TWO BEER WAGONS AND
SONG BIRD HOLD OCEAN LINER

New York, May 26.-Women and
children were knocked down and tram
pied upon, several women tainted.
clothing was torn and hats crushed in
a scrambling today as the George
Washington started from Hoboken for
Bremen
At least 5000 were caught in the
sweep of the crowd as it rushed hys-
terically from the side toward the end
of the pier when the liner dropped out
into the stream. After the throng had
dispersed the pier was covered with
broken hats, bedraggled furs, pocket
books handbags and women's combs.
Former United States Senator w. A.
Clark was one of the most excited VI
the crowd He had gone TO the pier
to see his wife and two daughters off,
and as he was swept toward the pier
he catapulted into husky men who ex-
postulated with him. At one time It
looked as if a fight would ensue. The
extraordinarily large passenger list
of the George Washington was respon-
sible for the big crowd on the pier
The George Washington was to hav"
sailed at 10 o'clock, but Johanna Cad
ski, the singer, and two big beer wa
CONS combined to hold it for twenty
minutes. Nine Gadskis husband ami
daughter preceded her. She, with a
trunk wedged in beside her, followed
in a taxi. At the entrance TO the Ho-
boken ferry the taxi was caught be-
tween two beer wagons. The singer
could not get out of the taxi and the
drivers of the trucks refused to get
out of their places. In the meantime
Nine. Gadski's daughter had persuaded
the captain of the liner to wait few
minutes. The boat pulled out just as.
she stepped off the gangplank.

Only One Man Killed.

OnAS OAAN AHAA AhAAASNs
Eals was the only man killed, and
his body remained unidentified until
late today, as well as that of his wife.
Public officers conferred today with
District Attorney John D. Fredericks
with reference to the grand jury in
quiry to be started either on or just
before the coroner's inquest Tuesday
The object of the inquiry is to fix re-
sponsibility for the condition of tho
pier, a section of which went down
under a weight of human beings esti
mated at less than $50 tons
On the order of the district attorney
officers were placed on guard this
morning over the ruined section of the
pier, instructed to keep watch con-
stantly in eight-hour shifts until re-
lieved and to allow no tampering with
any part of the structure. Several
broken timbers were taken out of the
pier today and locked up under official
seal.
The weakness of the pier, which was
built eight years ago and never re.
paired in that particular portion, is
believed to have been due to decay
caused by the action of salt atmosphere
on wood and it's iron fasteners anil
supporters. However, it was declared
that much stronger structure might
have been wrecked in the same circunt-
stances as the participants in the big
parade marched upon the pier in steo.
Military men pointed out that the
rhythmic vibration created by the
measured tread of thousands of feet
caused tremendous strain upon tho
supports which already had been heav-
lily burdened by the crowd about the
auditorium doors awaiting admission.
The grand jury investigation was
demanded by the officers of the United
Societies of British Born Residents
and visitors whose celebration ~
Queen Victorias birthday anniversary
was interrupted by the accident. City
Attorney Long answered reports of the
prospective damage suits with the
statement that in his opinion the city
could not be held responsible for the
deaths and injuries because no charge
had been made by the city for the use
of the municipal amusement property.
Use of the pier and auditorium had
been given without cost and the cell
ebrators, he said, had used it at their
own risk.
All but the most seriously injured
were removed to their homes in Los
Angeles and neighboring cities today.
The total number of injured proba-
bly, never will be known accuratel.:.
About 65, however, were seriously hurt.
