With this issue the TIMES en-
tiers upon its second year of its
newspaper career in Cheyenne
county. The first year is always
the hardest to pass through. as
people are afraid to give it the
proper assistance, for fear that
it will not last long, and another
reason is, businessmen do not
like to help for the same reasons
as the subscribers, but we can
say that our subscribers and bus
inessmen have treated the TIMES
as well as their circumstances
would permit and we are very
thankful to them for their pat
ronage in the past, and hope for
a continuance of their patronage
in the future, and hope that
crops and trade will be better for
them in the future than in the
past. We will try and help in
every way possible to do what
we can for the upbuilding of the
town and country, during the
coming year, the same as we
have in the past, and hope you
will each and everyone will lend
us a helping hand.
We will try and give you a
good clean and newsy paper at,
all times, if we should make
some mistakes, do net censure
us too hard, for we are only hu-
man beings, which are liable to
err, at some time or other.
Respectfully,
G. T. BoGERT. MGR.

Willamette was victorious In the
first game OF the varsity basketball
season, receiving the big end Of 30
to q score in the game played with
the alumni Saturday night
The alumni were greatly weakened
by the absence Of Mcintyre, and the
loss Of Gibson, who was laid out in the
early part Of the game
The varsity team played ball from
the start, and although the ball
seemed to spend most Of It's time in
the alumnis end Of the hall, It made a
bee line for the basket whenever the
scene Of action was changed,
The unpleasant feature Of the game
was the collision Of Gibson, Pfaff and
81. Pierre resulting in the breaking
OF one of Glbsons teeth, and driving
two Others into the jaw. Pfaff and st.
Pierre both received bad cuts on the
forehead.

dust on your fingers and in the air
Is sure to be swallowed.
4. Use overalls when you work.
Do not wear your working clothes on
the street or at home. They may con-
tain lead and poison you and others.
5. Respirators are very useful, and
should always be used when working
among lead dust or fumes.
6. Keep the workroom clean. Do all
you can to keep down dust. Do not
get lead on your hands and clothes
any more than you can possibly help
7, Always eat a hearty breakfast
before going to work. Drink plenty Of
milk. Have at least one good move
ment of the bowels every day. Con-
stipation is a suggestive symptom Of
lead poisoning. Avoid the use of in
toxicants in any form. Their use
weakens the body, and makes it hard
er for your body to overcome the
poison of lead.
s. Keep clean. Wash in warm
water soap and nail brush. Take at
least one full hot bath week.

such centers and Chicago 16, while
Philadelphia, Boston, Columbus, De-
troit, Jersey City, Louisville, Roches-
ter and Trenton are also among the
cities included in this list. There is
wide variation in the length of the
season, from five or six weeks in
some localities to the full school term
in others, In fact, little uniformity
prevails as to what constitutes a So
cial center Mr.. Perry presents in
the report q tentative definition of a
social center as follows: "a COM
munity may be said to have a school
house social center if one Of It's school
buildings Is thrown open to the pub
lie on one or more fixed nights a
week for at least 12 weeks a year,
for activities of a social, recreational,
or civic character, regularly directed
by one or more trained leaders"
The report also presents data on
the growing use Of school buildings
for political meetings, In Cleveland,
Ohio, meetings were held in the
schools to discuss the new constitu-
tional provisions that were before the
people for adoption. In Jersey City
the public schools were opened to
partisan political meetings with graf
flying results; eight public school
auditoriums in New York City were
also opened for the same purpose, and
in Chicago the assembly halls were
employed for political rallies and
proved a distinctly popular innova-
tion. Milwaukee, Wiss., and Worces-
ter, Mass, are cities where the
schools have for some time been used
for political meeting places.
The use of schools as polling places
is another recent development. Thirty
schools in Los Angeles were used for
this purpose in 1911. In the past
year Milwaukee began using the base
ments Of school buildings as polling
places. In New York the commission
er of accounts recommended that the
school buildings be used for regis
tration booths throughout the city, de-
claring that the plan would mean
the saving Of a considerable part Of
the hundred thousand dollars ex-
pended for rental every year. Defln-
ite adoption Of the idea Of schools
as polling places is reported from
Boston, Mass; Berkeley and Long
Beach, Cal; Grand Rapids, Mich;
Madison, Wis; and Salt Lake City
Utah.

Occasional attacks of backache, ir-

NEW ORLEANS CHILDREN
TO BE SUBJECTS OF STUDY

Children in the schools Of New Or
leans are to be Systematically studied
by experts with respect to their Ca
pacity for education, according to in
formation received at the United
States Bureau of Education. Under
the terms Of a cooperative agree
ment between the local school board
and Newcombe College of Tulane Uni
versity children who are for any rea-
son markedly exceptional" will be Sc
lected by the school authorities and
referred for individual examination to
the psychological laboratory at New
comb college, provided the parents
give their consent.
A detailed plan Of procedure has
been devised, in which parent, teacher,
sociologist, physician and psycholo-
gist cooperate in examining the chill
dren; and a significant feature is the
instruction to be given to a number of
city teachers and normal school STU
dents in school hygiene and in the
psychology of abnormal children by
professors of Tulane university.
The school teachers will take the
first step in the examination. Follow
/ ing a systematic census of all the
children, they will select from their
classes those who appear to be back
ward, or vicious, or in any way "ex-
ceptlonal." After the consent of the
parent is obtained, the parent, with
the child, will apply to the superin-
tendent Of public schools for his ap-
Iproval and then to the chief medical
inspector of the public schools for
physical examination. The experts at
the university laboratory will then
study the children individually.
Through mental tests, such as the
form board" and the Binet tests,
through knowledge of the child's
family history and mode Of life, OBJ
tained by a tactful social worker in
close touch with the home, and
through any other available source of
information they will seek to classify
the child according to his mental
needs and ability.
After having the pupil under direct
observation for some time, the psychol
ogists will be able to determine wheth-
er he should attend the regular school
receive special training, or be provid-
ed for in some other way The whole
purpose is to study the apparently ex-
ceptional child for his own welfare and
that Of the school and community, SO
that he may develop to the utmost
such talents as he has, and, if posi-
BILE, become useful member of socie-
ty instead of a social loss.

The Southern
Pacific Will
Begin the Work

The Coos Bay Harbor, of January
29, has the following interesting rail
road story:
While the telegram is short 1t Is
nevertheless explanatory and sets at
rest the statement made by Mr..
Mills that the bridge permit would
not be accepted on account of objec-
tionable feature. At that date Mr..
Mills was not informed, President
Sproule being in the east, and upon
his return home Mr.. Mills gave out
the information regarding construc-
tion, just as he said he would do.
The Southern Pacific company plan
on taking care Of their franchise
rights in North Bend, and as Mr..
Mills says, will see that all represen-
tations made at the time the city
council voted favorably on the fran
chise are fully protected.
The following telegram was received
by this paper from c. j. ILLS, assist
ant to President Sproule of the South
ern Pacific at San Francisco Wednes-
day:

"Steel work for bridge is now being

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
ON LEAD POISONING

So much lead poisoning has been
found to exist among painters and
lead workers in New York factories
that the Department Of Labor (of that
state) has begun vigorous campaign
against plumblsm, diseases which re-
cent investigation by the federal gov
ernment shows to be from s to 10
times as frequent in America as in
European factories, where the manu-
facture and use of lead is under strict
government control. The department
is endcavoring to enlist the co-opera-
tion of work ers and employers in lead
at the same time that definite legal
regulation Of the industry is being
proposed by the American Association
for Labor Legislation as a necessary
supplement to voluntary action. This
regulation, which comes in the form
of the associations uniform bill, now
being introduced in every state in
which a legislature is at present sit
ting, call for sufficient washing facil-
tiles, instructions to workmen by fore
men and others, mechanical methods
of dust prevention and removal, and
the prohibition of eating in work
rooms. This promises to be big ma.
tional campaign for the prevention OF
lead poisoning.
The New York law already requires
physicians and hospitals to report lead
poisoning, and the department has
just distributed to every painters
union, and to all employers and hospi-
tails reporting cases of lead poison
ing a 5O,0OO-word English edition Of a
card of Information for Workmen,"
to be followed later by editions in 9TH
er languages, stating that lead poi
soning can be prevented, that hoods
and other mechanical means are nee
essary to take away lead dust and
fumes, but that the workers them
selves need to take extraordinary pre-
cautions. These instructions to lead
workers continue:
How Men Are Poisoned by Lead.
/. Lead is poison to the body. It
enters the body mainly through the
nose and mouth. 1t may be inhaled as
dust or fumes. It may be swallowed
with food or saliva Especially IL to-
baceo or gum is put into the mouth
with solled fingers). Or It may be alb
sorbed through the skin.
2. When lead gets into the body, It
leads among other things to indiges
tion and lead "colic" to diseases Of
the heart, blood vessels and kidneys
or to paralysis of the hands, known as
wrist drop"
8. Lead acts upon the body SLOWLY
and nsduously. Without knowing
your danger, you may be getting some
lead poison into your body every day
IF you are working with lead in an!
one OF its many forms, you must
therefore, use great care so as to pro
toct yourself.

THE PORK BARREL
APPROPRIATIONS

(By Senator Burton Of Ohio, in

One the most unpleasant features
of senator's lfe is the attention
which Is demanded for matters Of COM
paratively small Importance, and the
neglect of questions which should be
Of chiefes. interest to all the people.
1t would seem at times as II there were
a more eager interest in appointments
to postofIlces than in great policies
which have to do with the general well
fare.
If a senator deyotes his time to the
consideration Of public questions Of

must subordinate matters OF party
patronage Otherwise he will find that
his time Is entirely consumed in de
