GOOD ROADS, .sPORK. :,

i 0OOD ktOAOS' "'tOk&As
j. M. Lowe of Kansas City. presi-
dent OF the National Old Trails Road
association, Is decidedly on the right
track in his suggestion that the news
papers Lend their aid to defeat the
bill recently introduced in congress
by Representative Shackleford of Mis-
souri, and all other bills smelling of a
good roads pork barrel that may
| come up in the future.
1t seems to be the case that Con-
gresham Shackleford's bill simply
provides for an appropriation of
$25, 100000 to be distributed among
the states and by the states among
the counties to be spent by local au-
thorities. This, on the very face Of it.
Mr.. Lowe believes. would amount to q
ridiculous and useless waste Of public
moneys.
The share Of the average middle
western county would be about $1,000.
or enough to build only one mile Of
standard highway, but entirely suf1i-
cient to put an almost insurmountable
barrier in the way Of getting future
appropriations for road building by
the government. This amount. spent
by the ordinary county court, after be-
ing divided according to political pull
where it would do the most good at
the August primaries, would disappear
like June frost. Some counties in
Missouri and Kansas now spend ten
times that sum annually on their road
ways and still the people clamor for
more.
Commenting on this phase of the
matter. The Independence (Mo.) Ex-
aminer of recent date said, editorially:
THE rivers and harbors appropria-
tions and the public building appro-
priations ought to be an object lesson
fragrant enough to warn our states
men with votes against adding a post
roads scandal to our national pork
barrel disgrace. Missouri apportioned
half a million dollars in cash to the
roads of the various counties q few
years ago and no man can today, or
could the following year. show one
single permanent road improvement
for the expenditure of this money. The
day has arrived when the people ex-
pect the men in office to use ordinary
business sense in spending the money
and not use it to promote personal
political ambitions"

great dancing center. the most inf1uen-
.tial dancing school the world has ever
seen. radiating its influence to south
and east and north. We may perhaps
even agree with the historian Of the
dance. who terms 1t ''the mother-coun-
try Of all civilized dancing" We are
not entirely dependent on the ancient
wall-pictures Of Egypt for our knowl-
edge OF Egyptian skill in the art. Sa-
cred mysteries. 1t IL known. were
danced in the temples. and queens and
princesses took part In the orchestras
that accompanied them. It 10 signif-
cant that the musical instruments still
peculiarly associated with the dance
were originated and developed in
Egypt: the guitar il an Egyptian in
strument. and its name was q hero
glyphic already used when the Pyra-
mids were being built: the cymbal. the
triangles, and castanets. in
one form or another, were all familiar
to the ancient Egyptians. and with the
Egyptian art OF dancing they must
have spread all round the shores Of the
Mediterranean, the great focus Of our
at a very early date. Even
beyond the Mediterranean. at Cadiz,
dancing that was essentially Egyptian
in character was established. and Cadiz
became the dancing school Of Spain.
The Nile and Cadiz were thus the two
great centers Of ancient dancing, and
Martial mentions them both together,
for each supplied its dancers to Rome.

KINDERGARTENs FOR NEGROES

KINDERGARTENS FOR NEGROES.
Announcement is made by the kim
dergarten division of the United
States bureau of education that q
demonstration kindergarten has re-
dren at Chattanooga, Tenn, by the
National kindergarten association,
cooperating with the bureau of edu-
cation. 1t will be supported tempor-
arily by Miss Bessie Locke Of New
York. in memory of her mother, Jane
Schouler Locke. It is believed by
those familiar with Chattanooga and
it's people that it will be necessary to
support the demonstration kinder
garten there but a short time when
the local people will become sum-
ciently interested in this important
work to assume the care and mainte-
nance of the kindergarten. thus en-
abling the demonstrator to go to an
other city to repeat the demonstra-
ton. A second one will soon be
opened in another southern city,
which will be maintained. by Miss
Elizabeth r. Wellington in memory
Of her mother, Mary D. Wellington.
DR.. Clayton, the United States COM
missioner of education, speaking Of
kindergartens for the colored race,
has said:
Those who know the negro best,
know that he does respond to the in
fiuences of right education. If his
education is to have this transform
ing influence, should it not be begun
in early childhood? And what type
of school is better fitted for this pur-
pose than the kindergarten? The
little negro is at least initiative.
Which school will most probably lead
him in the paths in which he should
walk-for his good and our+the
school of tdleness on the streets,
among the dirt and filth of the negro
quarters of our towns and cities, or
the kindergarten with a woman Of
culture and conservation as a teach
err? When we have done our full
duty by providing for our children
kindergartens and schools Of all
grades and kinds, when the forgotten
child is remembered and the lost
waif' has been housed and redeemed.
then shall we enter fully into our
rightful heritage, and wealth and
honor and power shall be ours beyond
what we can now comprehend"
