r STUDENT DIES

Prof. A. S. Harding returned yester.
day morning from Lincoln, Neb..
where he attended the funeral of Ira
Hatfield, a graduate of the State Col.
lege, who passed away very suddenly
from pneumonia. Mr.. Hatfield gradu-
ated from the college with the class of
1892, and vas one of the most success
full of the institutions alumni. He
was n of the most prominent citi-
ems of Lincoln, and his death was
generally mourned by the people of
that city. He was prominent in
financial circles being cashier of the
Lincoln State Bank, and had also
taken part in the civic affairs of the
city and state. The Nebraska State
Journal in an editorial says of his
death:
Il. II. Hatfield had not been a year
out Of the university law school when
he was giving his services free in a
movement TO stamp out gambling
houses in Lincoln. This beginning of
Dis citizenship here was a forecast
GE BIS career for the remaining twenty
years q his life. 1t has been the good

ocrstic virtue OF unselhsh devotion to
public service is a newer racial devel-
opment and Of less wide extent. 1t was
as a volunteer public servant that
Mr.. Hatfeld's high character appeared
in strongest relief.
1T is not too much to say, in truth,
that but for his inability to shirk a
public duty Mr.. Hatfield might be
alive today. With his own private
business making heavy demands upon
his strength, he threw himself in the
heat of last summer into the labor of
constructing a new charter for the city.
Others took refuge from the heat in
vacations abroad. He stayed at his
task. That done, friends urged him to
think of himself and save his strength.
But he could not be content to let the
labor of the summer go for naught, and
his strength unstintingly to the
effort to secure the adoption Of the
charter. A less wearied man than this
labor made him might have resisted
the attacks of disease.
"Our public affairs suffer constantly
from the fact expressed by the saying
that what is everybody's business is
nobody's business. Mr.. Hatfield took
on himself in a degree beyond his
strength this everybody's business
nobody else would attend to.
There is no measuring the value to
the community Of such a man. Here
is n citizen gone whose prominence
Is not due to the notable success with
he served himself, amassing for
tune and honors, but to the unselfsh
efficiency with which he served his

and personal character it is no

National Honesty.

President Wilson is entitled to
the thanks of the country be-
cause of his stand for what is
generally believed to be simply
national honesty. When the
final arrangements we're made
for cutting the Panama canal,
we had a treaty with Great Brit
ain in which there is a clause
which provides that the canal
shall be open to ships OF all ma
lions without discrimination. In
other words, that we will charge
the ships of one nation the same
price that we charge the ships of
every other nation for the use OF
the canal. Some time later,
when additional legislation was
enacted by our congress the
senate insisted that American
ships engaged in coatwise trade
should be permitted the free
use of the canal, and a law was
enacted to this effect. Great
britain protested against this as
Ibeing in violation Of the Hay
a%uncefote treaty, which pro
vided that the waterway was TO
be open to British and United
Estates ships on equal terms.
There has been much controversy
over the question, and a desire
on the part of Great Britain tC
i, submit the whole matter to arbl
tration. While many able ar
= Icuments have been made on botI
I, sides of the matter, the action o.
our senate in exempting coat
wise vessels from canal tolls i'm
presses the average citizen as
, clear violation of the spirit o
our treaty with Great Britain
! and therefore dishonest.

Good Roads and Their Relation
to Rural Schools.


Washington, D.. C. Jan. 90
The rural population is more
willing to support better schools
today than at any previous time.
Ii is being realized that all edu-
cational activities or agencies
must be more or less correlated,
and. more than all else, that
they must be made accessible to
the children. In many counties
where bad roads prevail, most OF
the schools are of the antiquated
one-room variety. They are
usually located along bad roads
which, during the winter, when
the schools are usually in SEES
sion. become so nearly impossible
as to make it difficult for the
children to reach them. This
condition causes irregular atten-
dance and restricts the educa-
tional opportunities Of the child.
Not only this, but it often i'm
pedes the economic consolidation
of these smaller schools into
larger, stronger graded schools,
with high school courses, direct
ed by a competent principal and
corps of teachers, according to
the Office of Pubic Roads, U. s.
Department of Agriculture.
On the other hand, in counties
which have improved their roads
the schools are easily reached.
the average attendance greater
the efficiency largely increased
and economic consolidation made
possible. Regular attendance a
school means consistent and reg
ular growth of both school ant
pupil. and consolidation o
schools means a maximum OF Ell
ficiency at a minimum of cost
It is also noteworthy that ther
is a marked tendency for the col
solidated school to become tn
social and intellectual center @

=. rural schoolhouses are so COZ
. structed as to serve the comml
n;ty as gathering places for Vi

to the exceptional miildness of the
winter of 1928 and of November
and December, 1913. The briquets
which appear to meet with favor in
the eastern states are of the boulet
type, pillow or egg shaped, and about
the size of anthracite nut. They are
practically smokeless and make an
ideal fuel for the open CRATE or kitch-
en- range, holding their shape until en-
tirely consumed and then falling,
when stirred, into n p~ulverulent,
clinkerless ash. In the central and
Pacific coast states the popular type
of briquetted fuel appears to be of
larger size, about that of egg coal.
