Cedar RAPIDS. April 2s-Three fires
at o'clock this morning, one of which
destroyed the warehouse Of the Denning
Motor Implement Company at Eighth
avenue and Walnut street, west, q
second which was extinguished at the
Baker Paper Company's plant, SIS
South First street, and third in the
Fay Brothers lumber yard. Fourth ave-
nue. and First street, east, confirmed
the suspicious Of the fire department
and police departments that a fire
bug is working IN this city.
At the Denning works the loss was
greatest, as the entire warehouse con-
tanning much machinery and many
thousands of feet of lathing was en-
tirely consumed before the fire depart
ment arrived.
The arrival Of the firemen undoubt-
eddy saved the adjoining lumber yard
which contained thousands Of feet Of
lumber.
The fire at the Baker Paper Com
pany plant was underneath the plat
form used for unloading cars. Mem
bers of the fire department found con-
vincing evidence there of incendiarism
in the presence of piece of waste,
blazing beneath the platform. There
was no loss at this place.
Company No. from central station
on the way to the Baker Company
fire, discovered a blaze in the Fay
Brothers lumber yard and some more
blazing waste. Company No. from
the south side, passing the same lum
Der yard on the way up town to cover
central station stopped to put out a
blaze there. 1t is believed this yard
was set afire in two places.
1t is said that the loss at the Den
ming Motor Implement Company is
partly covered by insurance.

This is the view of Emma X. Blaise,
pardon clerk in the state executive
office. after an official visit to the re-

there the past week at the time Of the
visit of the parole board. She went
especially to interview the occupants

Thirty-Four Women in Prison.
There are thirty-four women in the
female department. They are COM
fortably situated, though their build
ing is not modern. The women are
kept busy. They sit around with their
sewing and crochet, but keep busy at
something all the time. There are, I
think, ten of them serving life terms.
But the room they occupy at the
grounds is really very much needed by
the institution for other purposes
The parole board had very large
docket for investigation at the April

THE COUNTY FAIR
Rv Peter Radford

The farmer gets more out Of the
fair than anyone else. The fair to a
city a. is an entertainment; to q
farmer it Is education. Let US take a
stroll through the fair grounds and
ltnger a moment at a few of the points
OF greatest interest. We will first
visit the mechanical department and
hold communion with the worlds
greatest thinkers.
You are now attending a congress Of
the mental giants in mechanical sci
ence of all ages. They are addressing
you in tongues Of iron and steel and
IN language mute and powerful tell an
eloquent story Of the worlds progress.
The inventive gen1uses are the most
valuable farm hands we have and
they perform an enduring service to
mankind. We al all help others for
a brief period while we live. but 1t
takes q master mind to tower into the
realm Of science and light a torch OF

way Of civilization for future genera
SAOASs 1Ao Mcu WHO gave US tAo
sickle, the binder, the cotton gin and
hundreds Of other valuable inventions
work in every field on earth and will
continue their labors as long as time.
Their bright intellects have conquered
death and they will live and serve
mankind on and on forever, without
money and without price. They have
shown US how grand and noble it is
to work for others; they have also
taught us lessons in economy and eff
cheney, how to make one hour do the
work Of two or more; have length
ened our lives, multiplied our
opportunities and taken toll of the
back of humanity.
They are the most practical men
the world ever produced. Their in
ventions have stood the acid test of
utility and efficiency. Like all useful
men, they do not seek publicity, yet
millions of machines sing their praises
from every harvest field on earth and
as many plows turn the soil in mute
applause Of their marvellous achieve
ments.

RURAL SOCIAL CENTERs

We need social centers where our
young people can be entertained,
amused and instructed under the d1.
rection of cultured. clean and CON-
petent leadership. where aesthetic
surroundings stir the love for the
beautiful, where art charges the at
mosphere with inspiration and. power,
and innocent amusements instruct
and brighten their lives.
To hold our young people on the
farm we must make farm life more
attractive as we'll as the business of
farming more r~emunerative. The
school house should be the social unit,
properly equipped for nourishing and
building character, 81 that the lives Of
our people can properly function
around it and become supplied with
the necessary elements OF human
thought and activity.
