TEAcHEs's CREED

believe in boys and girls, the men and women of great to- morrow, that whatsoever the boy soweth the man shall reap. I believe in the curse of ignor. ance, the efficacy of schools, in the dignity of teaching, anc in the joy of serving others. I believe in wisdom as revealed in human lives as we'll as in the pages of a printed book, in lessons taught, not so much by precept as by example. in abili- ty to work with hands as well as to think with the head, in every thing that makes life large and lovely. believe in beauty in the school-room, in the home, in daily life and out of-doors. l believe in laughter, in love, in faith, in all ideals and hope that lure us on. I believe that every hour of the day we re- ceive a just reward for all we do. I believe in the present and it's opportunities, in the future and it's promises and in the divine joy of living.

EXPERT FINDS MUCH
GAS IN CITY SEWERS

George White, city gas expert
who Is making chemical analyses OF
samples OF sewage from number OF
large sewers In the city. claims to
have discovered the presence OF
enough gas 10 cause a dozen repeti-
tons OF the disastrous explosion
which recently wrecked a large sec
ton OF the Eighteenth-st. sewer. His
Investigation shows that the city
sewage contains more than one per
cent of gasoline and other highly In
flammable oils.
City Engineer Mccormick esti-
mates that the cost OF repairing the
damage caused by the Eighteenth
ST. sewer explosion will be between
$4,000 and $1,000. In three and a
half miles OF sewer, 25 manholes
were wrecked, two OF the sewer out
let's badly damaged, paving ripped
out in. several places and the win
dows In a number OF houses and
stores broken. Engineer Mccormick
believes that oil from several gaso-
line stations, automobile plants and
garages in the Mghteenth-st. district
was responsible for the explosion.
He will ask the council to pass an
ordinance prohibiting the drainage
of gasoline and other infiammable
oils into the public sewers.

silence. BY testifying he held that he
would violate confidence that would
not have been given except for his
profession.

ment. II proper showing could be
made the Judge intimated that he
would uphold the newspaper man and
