pole to guide and propel the raft and
pushed it off into the water.
Shall l be able to reach the
wreck?" thought Robinson Crusoe.
His heart thumped~ as he thought
of the possibility of not finding any
thing when he got thereH
He tried NOT to think of this and
commenced to plan what he would
do if the food were there, all right,
and he could get it to the shore
safely.
81 will build little house near the
Shore" he said to himself ''Then 1
can watch for the ships. Some day
some one will come for mel"
At last, after he had almost given
up hope, Robson Crusoe managed to
get up quite close to the poor old
ship, which seemed to be sinking out
of sight by inches. He scrambled up
the side and got onto the small part
of the deck that had not been sub
merged.
He shouted and shouted and shout
ed! Perhaps there might be another
survivor!
Not a sound came in answer, ex-
cept- \
He listened hard. What was that?
The glad, happy bark of a DOG!
Yes, it was the captains dog, the
faithful creature that had stayed
with his master till the very last and
then sought shelter under a great
pile of canvas.
He came now, wagging his tail
feebly. And he tottered a bit, too, for
it was hours and hours since he had
had a bite to eat or water to drink.
"Old Bounce" shouted the boy, "at
least YOU are saved. YOU will be my
friend. l can talk to YOU. Come
on, Bounce, well go together on my
raft and well live together in my lit

Now we shall not starve to death"
He loaded all he could onto the
raft and was just about to leave the
ship when he same something, very
small, stick it's head out of an empty
barrel on the deck.
"a cat, as 1 i've" cried Robson
Crusoe. Then he went little closer
and saw another cat!
why, these cats cannot stay here
and starve to DEATH" thought the
kind-hearted boy. ooh, I'll put them
in bag and take them with me.
"An aboard. Away we CO." he
cried. And off they all went on the
raftp
The sea was calm, but it was no
easy task to steer the loaded raft
back to land! Hours and hours, it
seemed to Robson Crusoe, before he
finally succeeded in getting close
enough to shore to jump off and pull
the raft after him. But at last the
perilous trip was over. The provisions
were safely landed. The cats were
let out of the>big bag and Bounce was
given food and water.
Then began. the strange life which
Robinson Crusoe lived for 26 YEARS
on that lonely island!
He found goats, skinned them and
made clothes for himself. He built
and barricaded a hut in a tree top!
He saw strange birds and wild ami
mails! One day he saw cannibals on
the beach preparing. to- kill and eat
a native! He shot at them, scared
them away and saved the native, who
was so thankful that he offered to be
Robinson Crusoe's servant forever.
Inasmuch as it was on a Friday that
he found this frightened fellow, he
named him Friday! Years and years
went by, but Robson Crusoe never
saw a white man.

that probably later in the summer a

RAILROADS. DENY
PASS OBLIVION
RAISES PROFITS

Z Denver. March '27.-The abolition
of railroad passes in Colorado has had
no effect on the earnings of its rail-
roads, the railroad committee of the
state Senate was told at a meeting
last night at which opposition to
Representative Sweets lower passen-
ger rates bill was voiced by repre-
sentatives of three Colorado railroads.
Not only would the prosperity Of
railroads be greatly reduced If 2 and
Scent fares provided in Sweets bill
go into effect, contended the railroad
Officers, but the effect would be to
shut off further railroad development
In the state.
Robert S. Ruble of the Union Pa
cific, Chester III. Speers of the Colo
RADIO Midland and Frank A. Wad-
leigh of the Rio Grande were the
principal speakers against the pass
age of Sweets bill.
Mr.. Wadleigh declared the passen-
ger traffic of his road is operated at
a very small margin of profit in some
instances, at cost in others and at a
loss in many instances. A reduction
OF l cent mile. he declared, would
have cut off 100000 from the gross
earnings of his road last year, cutting
deep into the net profits
Colorado railroads" declared Mr.
Ruble, ARE responsible for the pres
ent development of the state With
out their investment of capital, much
Of which will return nothing for
years to come, Colorado would still
be an undeyeloped waste"
Representative Sweet argued that
with the discontinuance of railroad
passes the revenue of various roads in
the state will increase to such an ex-
tent that they can afford to reduce
their passenger fares. This was de-
MED by the railroad officers; who de-
clared paid traffic is no greater now
than before the abolition of free
transportation. Senator Tobin inter
posed suggestion that since the
abolition he had paid his fare for the
first time in 1S years and then only
because he had to.

HOME ECONOMICS
No one, | think, feels that the
last word has been said upon wo-
mans education when it precisely
duplicates that of man. The tre-
mendous possibilities Of university
courses in home economics, when
they are properly grounded upon
science and economics as firm in
tellectual basis aid discipline,
make one stand aghast. All the
problems of food, clothing and
shelter; all the work in humanics
and dietics; all the practical work
in problems Of family life, of the
spending Of the family income, of
testing out devices for saving
money and labor in the home, and
so leaving time and energy for
things Of the mind and the spirit
all these are invaluable in acquir-
ing and applying the social point of
view. The Department of Home
Economics in the University of
Wisconsin definitely specifies scien-
tific courses such as college chem
istry, college physics and bacter-
ology as prerequisitesfor the more

bination of intellectual discipline

full discussion of the question it was
decided to change the meeting hour
to 1880 p. m, beginning next Tuesday

The next question discussed was the
