FARMER HAS EXCITING TRIP.
q. A. Berg of GlenwOOd Township
Had Exciting Experience on
Trip to Iowa City.

o. A. Berg, of Glenwood township
left here Saturday over the Rock Is
land for Iowa City, on visit to his
daughter Mrs Roseland, who is i'll in
hospital there. On his outgoing trip
Saturday the train was wrecked at
Walker, the entire train leaving the
track, except the engine. A train
from Cedar Rapids came to their re-
lief and got the passengers to that
city. Mr.. Berg arrived too late to
catch a train, so took the interurban
at 9:05 p. m. for Iowa City. The
icy condition of the road made mora
trouble. When the car was going
over the Cedar River the transmit
ter was broken off, and a serious
wreck was just averted. He arrived
at Iowa City at 1850, trip which
usually takes only an hour.
Monday night at $50 Mr.. Berg
left Iowa City for Cedar Rapids, ar
irving there at ten O'Clock, too late
to catch the Milwaukee north. so he
took the Illinois Central to Man
chester, expecting to catch the Mil
waukee at Oneida, on a spur track.
but that section was snow bound and
two Milwaukee trains were tied Up
at Strawberry Point. Not to be out
done Mr.. Berg took the main line
Illinois Central to Waterloo to catch
the Great Western, but when he ar
rived there it had just pulled out.
So the next thing he done was to take
lle Illinois Central to Charles City,
where he was fortunate enough 10
catch the |. & ID. into Calmar. The
hotels at Calmar were packed, and
Mr.. Berg and about 20 other pas
sengers arrived in DEBORAH at 1880
this morning. Mr.. Berg has travel
ed considerably and was well posted
on the train service in this section,
or otherwise he might have been still
showed in at some town down the
line.

In every community there is a Hail
of Fame, which may not be set up
on the public square. 1t may not be
preserved among the tangible treas
ures in the State House or the Hall
of History; but it has an existence
more enduring than any of these.
The woman who relieves distress,
who provides for the needy, who eX-
tends a helping hand to the unfortu-
nate, makes for herself a place in
the Hall of Fame. The man who
deals fairly with his neighbor, who
stands for morality in business, for
justice in government, and who puts
his shoulder to the wheel to push
along the chariot of progress has his
place, too-and an undying place.
in the Hall of Fame.
This Hall of Fame of which /
speak is builded in the memories and
the affections of the people. 1t is
as enduring as time. 1t is perpetu-
ated from generation to generation.
This is a democratic Hall of Fame,
for it is open not only to the soldier
who conquers, to the hero who saves,
to the statesman who directs the af-
fairs of the nation, to the author
who molds the minds of the multi
tude; but it is open as well to the
humblest man or woman in the humb-
lest walk of life, to the boy or girl
who lives and thinks and does the
things that make for a better COM
munity and a better world. Election
to this Hall of Fame is not by SER
wants, not by societies of learned
men and women, but by the people
who do every day the common
thoughts, experience the common
joys and sorrows, but who, after all,
are of the salt of the earth.-Frater-
nal Union.

Educational Cost is More Than $1O,-
100000 Per Year.

The number of school teachers
employed in Iowa, June 30, 1914.
was $50 less than at the same time
the previous year, but their combin-
ed salaries was $S94,334 more than
at that time. These figures are taf-
en- from the annual report OF A. M.
Deyoe, state superintendent of pub
lie instruction, which was complet'
ed Wednesday.
The total paid teachers in salar-
les by the state in 1913 was $9,614,-
221, compared with $10,5oS,555 in
1914. In the former year 27,432

A teachers minimum wage law
was enacted by the Thirty-fifth gem
eral assembly. It's benefit to the
teachers Is shown in Mr.. Deyoe's re-
port. There has been some OPPOSE
ton to the law, but its friends are
certain that they can convince the
next legislature that it ought to re-
main on the statute books.
In addition to paying it's teachers
more money, Iowa has made other
advances in it's schools. For the year
lust ended 1877 new buildings have
been erected. The total number OF

Entertaining The Youth.

A man who resides within a mile
of this office went to neighboring
city not long ago and was invited 10
visit an institutional church with a
gymnasium in connection. 1t was in
the evening and he was somewhat
perturbed to find some of the lads
engaged in a merry game at the bow
ling alley while others were boxing,
and still others playing dominoes or
reading. 1t looked to him rather
sacrilegious that anything of the
gymnasium line should be carried on
under the same roof where the gos-
pei was preached in the church audi
forum Sunday.
Z Who was right, the church people
of the city who provided clean enter
tainment for their youth so that they
would not find it necessary to min
gle in questionable resorts or the
visitor who was somewhat shocked
and who would cut ut anything It
the Y. Nj. C. A. idea from under the
drippings of the sanctuary? 1t is al
assured fact that the lad who arrives
at the age of 20 with clean ideals and
having had clean associates is much
more apt to continue in the straight
and narrow path to the end of life
than the boy who runs the streets
because he has no other place to go.
It's living question. Re-
