FEASIBLE PLAN TO
ELIMINATE DEATH TRAP

2. That all of the railroads would
pay at the rate of fifty cents per
square foot for the property that they
would gain by the vacation of the
present alley.
3. That the railroads would divide
into three equal parts the expense of
opening the proposed new alley.
4. That the Chamber OF Commerce
would guarantee one paving of the
new alley, with brick at no expense
TO any of the railroads.
5, That the Chamber of Commerce
would arrange with the city or other
wise. to cancel all assessments against
the railroads for the expenditures
thus far made or to be made on the
old alley.
AS between the railroads. this
scheme would work out about as fol-
lows:

These amounts should be deducted
from the debts to get the exact cost
OF the proposed compromise to each
road Tt is roughly estimated that
under the proposed scheme. the com
mfttee for the Chamber of Commerce
will have to assume, for the city and
busines men an expense of at leas
$1,000 for the paving of the new alley
and for paving already done on tn

WHY BOYS AND GIRLS QUIT
SCHOOL

Why do boys and girls refuse a
free education in the high schools?
This Is one OF the serious problems
Of the country and one upon which
much money is being spent and wise
minds are being trained
The American Machinist, a promi-
nent trade journal, says 1t Is because
the boys (and the same might be said
Of the girls) become mentally lazy.
What part of school life do the chill
dren hate and what part Of shop or
store life do they crave?" asks the
American Machinist. The question is
answered by correspondent who
claims to have made long study of
the question.
THE part OF school life the children
hate Is the part that makes them
think; the part they like In the shop
and the store is the part that lets
them work with little or no mental ef
fort" says this correspondent.
