Today's Practice.
This morning the players will report

during the next thirty years at the

Focused into establishing shipping

Focused into establishing a shipping
subsidy.
Outside of Japan, France is the only
nation which practices subsidizing
merchant vessels and as the article
points out the plan has been a COM
plete failure in every particular
France, with ship subsidy. not only
has smaller merchant fleet than
England or Germany, but has a
smaller merchant fleet than Norway
carrying a smaller tonnage than Hol-
land, two small nations which have
no subsidy Of any kind. Even more
significant is the fact that even in the
carrying of French commerce the
French subsidized merchant fleet has
gone backwards, not carrying as much
French commerce in French bottoms
before the war began as it did in 1900.
Germany with no ship subsidy in
creased her merchant marine 100 per
cent in 10 years. Holland and Norway,
with no subsidy, have shown vigorous
growth in their merchant marine, and
despite their size, rank we'll up at the
top of nations in overseas carrying
trade.
The presentation of these facts in
magazine of unimpeachable character,
bipartisan In it's policy and national
in it's circulation comes at a very OPP
perfume time. The shipping interests,
having defeated the federal ship pur-
chase bill at the last session OF con-
gress, are showing greater signs OF ac-
tivity in behalf Of a shipping subsidy
than any time since the days when the
International Merchant Marine cor
poration largely English owned) made
such a strenuous fight in support Of
the Hanna-Frye ship subsidy bill.
Nothing operates to block such plans

the JOB SEEKS The SPECIALIST.

The generally accepted impression
that college graduates are the most
helpless and least fitted to go forth
from the graduating exercises and de-
mand job at decent wages is pretty
thoroughly jolted by the announcement
that forty four members of a grad
auting class at Ames have already
placed themselves in the teaching pro-
fession as teachers of agriculture and
home economics. OF the list nearly
two thirds are girls who take up teach
ing domestic economy in schools; the
others men, who will teach agriculture.
However, the statistics of the CLASH
cal course" may not be so prolific Of
as before in certain courses" These
forty four know something better than
others. They are specialists. They
We're not waiting for the Jobs as eager
~ as the jobs We're waiting for them.
The all around man has ceased to
be success. He has gone with the
SANA w
thing from soldering the tea kettle to
cutting file or boring a rifle barrel.
Nowadays one man does one thing, an
other another thing and another as
sembles what the others make. In the
division of labor we have become spe-
cialists. Perhaps it isn't as satisfac-
tory in many ways as the old style
but it is and will continue to be and
we might fit ourselves to the scheme
of things as to buck heads against a
stone wall. There was never so many
but they are jobs for the specially
trained man and woman. The profess
sions discovered this first and the legal
and medical and other professions be-
gan to split into specialized lines. Bush
ness and education have done the same
thing. The graduate who has a job
waiting impatiently for him to finish
school is he who has learned one par
ticular thing better than others know
it.
Granted that the college graduate
who has had merely a general educa-
ton is helpless when cast out like
young bear with all his troubles before
him-he usually succeeds better in the
long run than the uneducated man; but
for quick action and. the short way to
the ladder of success pick the specialist
as the best bet He doesn't wait. We
wait for him and pluck him before he
is fairly ripe.

SIOUX CITY AS MOTOR ROAD CENTER.

The city council of Sioux City has
undertaken comprehensive plan of
paving all of the main roads leading
into the business district from the sur
rounding country; that part of them
which lie between the present pave
tents and the city limits which, in most
towns, are the worst roads Of all. A
law enacted by the last legislature
these main thoroughfares and to assess
the cost over a wide zone Of property
or to pay part of it out Of the general
funds and Sioux City, which has long
thick all one mix, is going at the work
with enthusiasm. In fact SO enthus-
iastic are they that the Sioux City
Journal, always conservative, publishes
a full page feature story about Sioux
City becoming the center Of vast sys-
tenn Of paved country roads and pre-
diets that the Lincoln highway will be
paved with concrete from Sioux City to
Chicago in less than ten years.
Sioux City is pioneering where all
market towns will soon be following.
The paving of main travelled roads out
to the corporation line is not only an
invitation to tine farmers 10 come to
town as the Sioux City boosters view
it but it is an object lesson that will
cause the farmer to stretch that same
the doctor in town who bought the
first automobile about ten years ago.
Now the farmers are buying most Of
them.
So the Times Republican will sug-
gest to Sioux City something about it's
own affairs that it does not know. 1t is
this. If the law of Iowa would permit
the people of Sioux City and Of Wood
bury county to vote thirty-year bonds
for roads and bridges as the people of
nearly all the states in the union can
do they could within the next five
years replace every iron and wooden
bridge in their county with masonry,
and pave every mile Of their county
road system with concrete, pay off the
bonds with interest and maintain their
improvements without increasing their
present rate Of taxation for roads and
bridges.
Look up bridge and road taxes in
Woodbury. and you will find that as
sessed valuations have nearly doubled
within the past thirty years. I: is Their
safe to predict that they will double
again and population will double with
in another thirty years. This wil! yield

Then, again, there is Attorney Cen
eral Cosson, known in every section
Of the state as a man who has framed
some very effective law enforcement
laws. He has lots Of friends who
think his character has rounded out
to such a point that he would make
a good governor. We agree with them
and under certain conditions would
be glad to support him as there is
going 10 be a great deal of law en-
forcement necessary after the first Of

Senator Joseph II. Allen of Poca-
hontas is a big man and he, too. IL
mentioned for the nomination. Well.
there are few men In the state who

you that the senator is mighty good
timber for the governorship candidacy.
Senator Francis is another man who
is Of the right kind Of timber, but he
has declined to allow the use Of his
name.
Clifford Thorne has been mentioned
for the place. Thorne is good man
but we have always considered him
