HEALTH ALMANAC.

The Kansas State Board of Health
has published its second annual
Health Almanac for 1913. lnforma-
ton How To Avoid Infectious Di-
seases" is presented in an interest
ing and instructive fashion. The edi-
tor declares that there is no specula-
ioI Aor t4ooriz;cg Ia ,ha statements
that are made. You can, therefore,
accept as tried and proven every as
sertion that is set forth regarding d.
sease prevention.
A feature of the Almanac is the
important dates in Kansas history
that are set opposite the days of
each month. These dates are inter
spersed with pungent health epigram'
in a way that fixes the attention on
the subject matter treated.
The State Department of Health
will furnish one of these almanacs
70 any citizen Of Kansas upon his re-
quest on a postal card, and it is con-
fidently hoped that on every mantle
in Kansas may be seen hanging a
copy of the Health Almanac. By
frequent consultation it may prevent
much sickness. 1t certainly will be
helpful toward a healthful and conse
quently happier life.
Address: Secretary, State Board Of
Health, Topeka, Kansas.

SPENDING TOO MUCH MONEY.

We note that the State University
has come out and made known its
wants from the coming legislature.
They only ask for two millions of dol
lars for the next two years, or a mil
lion dollars per year. There. are two
ideas prevalent as regards the state
educational institutions. One is that
great appropriations shall be made,
in order that these institutions may,
De a great advertisement for the
state. The other idea is, that while
the idea of popular, and what is term
ed higher education, should not be
crippled, that economy should be prac
ticed. We do not blame the manage
ment of these schools for asking for
big appropriations. Their business is
to get as much money as they can
and to spend all they can get. But
we imagine that the next legislature
will impress upon the University that
it is necessary to trim down that mil
lion dollar a year estimate a good
deal. The idea of spending five hun
bred dollars a year to provide instruc
ton for each student in the school is,
to our way of thinking, preposterous,
and such an allowance would lay the
legislature open to a severe and Just
criticism. A million dollars a year
would mean that the state would pay
practically three dollars a day for
each student for every school day.
We think the gentlemen have pushed
their estimates a good deal.-JOhn
Connolly.

At the recent meetings CT the board
Of directors Of the Packard Motor
Car Company the proposition Of con-
tributirg to the fund for the build
ing OF the highway from coast to
coast, as proposed by Carl G. Fisher
and James A. Allison, Of lndianapo-
lis, was presented for discussion. Mr.
Fisher had recently visited with H.
B. Joy, President of the Packard
Company, in Detroit, SO the matter
practically came from first hands.
The board was unanimous in its en-
dorssment, and decided to contribute
l percent on the basis Of SIS ,0OO, 900.
The large automobile and accessories
companies are greatly interested in
the highway movement. Mr.. Fisher,
in his recent meeting with a large
gathering of these gentlemen present
ed the situation and the plans of the
temporary committee, in such a clear
and logical way that many of them
have become enthusiastic boosters.
These companies have large boards
OF directors which have to be con-
suited and 1t is no small problem to
get them together. The Packard
Company's meeting happened to com
somewhat earlier than the others, but
when they do meet there is little
doubt but that there must be a gen.
eral endorsement of the highway.
The committees are receiving host
Of smaller individual contributions,
Coast to Coast Highway Associations
are being formed along the various
routes and these various associations
will present their claims for the rout-
ing through their sections to the per-
manent committee when the time ar
