When the senior class OF the Albu-
quefque hieh school promised the
public a treat In the annual class play
"A Strenuous Life" given az the h.gh
school auditorium last night. they
didn't eNaggerate a bit. The play was
not only funny. but II was well done
fun. There was little of a~mateurish-
ness about Il and the boys and girls
carried through their somewhat aim
cuit parts with IN assurance and
grace that was entirely pleasing. Les

for an especially hearty welcome
whenever they appeared ON the stage,
which was pretty much all OF the time.
The whole east was letter perfect and

How to Keep From Drowning.

The way to keep from drowning,
says G. H. Corsan, Canadian swim
ming instructor, is to learn how to
swim. Good swimmers don't drown.
They might die of chill or starve to
dea tn, but, as for drowning-pooh!
How about cramps he was asked.
Even good swimmers have cramps,
that bugaboo of those who aren't at
home in the water. His answer was
reassuring Cramps needn't cause a
moments worry. I've seen thousands
of good swimmers seized with cramps
and never one was drowned. All
they did was to turn over on their
backs and either wait for help or
paddle in with their free limbs. I've
heard of a swimmer having cramps
in both legs and arms. Even then
his case would not be hopeless.
There never was case OF drown
ing that was caused by cramps. That
may seem surprising after the coun-
less water tragedies that have been
blamed on cramps. Death in the
water is caused by chill or strangllng.
People strangle to death because
they are ignorant Of the proper
method of breathing. When they
sink beneath the water they hold
their air passages shut. When they
come to the top they have to breathe
out the air they've used while under
the water AS breathing out takes
fifty times as long as breathing in,
they have no time to get fresh sup
ply of air before they go under again.
This keeps up until they breathe in
under water and thus strangle to
death.
The process should be reversed.
Breathe in for the second you are
above water, then breathe out
through the nostrils while under the
water and you can keep it up until
you starve to death. A knowledge OF
this reversed process of breathing
would have saved hundreds who died
when the Lusitania sunk"

HUNTERS LICENSES.
Aliens and NOn-liesidents Must Pay
$40 for Their Hunting
Licenses

State game warden E. G. Hinshaw
calls attention to the provisions Of
the new game license law of Iowa,
which makes citizenship prerequis-
ite for a resident hunters license.
This new law is an excellent thing
for the state in every way. In the
past the resident hunters license,
which is issued for 81 year, was
open to everybody who swore to resi-
dence within the state, and hundreds
of licenses were secured by Greeks,
Italians, Austrians and other foreign
laborers employed by railroad COM
panies, contractors and other employ
ers OF cheap labor.
These foreigners, the deputy game
wardens of the state have found, hav-
ing secured their licenses, proceeded
70 shoot anything which flies. Song
birds, game birds, orchard pets, all
were game to them and the state Of
licials found it impossible to protect
robins, blue birds, thrushes, MARBLES,
or any of the protected game birds.
The new law requires the county
auditor to demand showing of citi-
zenship by applicants for resident
hunters licenses and aliens are plac-
ed in the nonresident class, which
must pay a license fee of $40 for
hunting privilege. In case where the
auditor is in doubt he is required to
administer the oath to the applicant.

The Vacation Peril.

School is out. Millions of young
sters whom yesterday the schools alb
sorbed in more or less useful occupa-
ton will tomorrow have nothing to
do, nothing except that
Satan finds some mischief still
For idle hands to do.
The American public school system
was established under rural condi-
lions and was adjusted to meet rural
conditions. There was a hoe for ev-
cry hand in those days, and every
youngster graduated straight from
the closing exercises into the corn
field. There was no parental horror
then of having the family flock ION
their hands during idle Saturdays
and summers. 1t took all Of Satur-
day to chop the next weeks wood.
1t took all summer to cultivate next
winters food. There were chores to
do before 8 a. m. and after p. m.
If the children were spared for six
months term then, that was pretty
generous of their hard worked par
ents. To this day some Nebraska
public schools take an extra vacation
in corn husking time.
Rural conditions, as to a majority
of American children and parents,
disappeared. In that unbending way
which institutions have, the schools
went straight ahead on rural basis.
Still the short school day, still the
Saturday holiday, still the long fall
low summer. Still stands the expen-
sive school house vacant one day out
of every two and occupied only six
months, while parents wreck their
nerves and wrench their hearts in
the effort to save them from the de-
bauching effects of idleness.
BY certain beginnings at superVis-
ed vacation Fairgrounds and vacant
lot farming the city of Lincoln has
shown a glimmering recognition that
we are crowding new wine into old
bottles. On sweeping scale at
Gary, Ind, and by cautious expert
ment in New York City the school
system of the days Of the scythe and
fail is being superseded with some
thing different, and say to say, bet
ter. There the school is beginning
to furnish to children the useful ac-
tive life which farm children get
without school. The longer day, the
consequently nearly doubled capacity
Of the school houses, the training of
hand and head together, the aband-
onment of the long, formal vacation,
offer a hope that finally city schools
will get over their devotion to coun-
try conditions, to the eradication OF
the special perils over which some
million terrified parents are now los
ing sleep.---Lincoln Journal.

Colfax Loses a Good Family.

The w. S. Bear family loaded their
household goods Monday and shipped
them to Des Moines. The family left
the next morning for that city where
they will make their future home out
in University Place. Mr.. Bear and La
Verne will remain in Colfax. He VII!
continue his Optometry business, and
she will remain here in her present
position at the National Bank.
During the residence OF about
three years in Colfax the Bears have
made a host of friends and Mrs.
Bear and the girls will be much miss
ed in church and social circles.-Col-

IL Want to Go Back"
! want to go back,

Down on the farm.

PULLS.
California has furnished another
instance of comparison between that
state of climate and earthquakes and
Iowa. The farther we go and the
more we learn the better Iowa shows
up by comparison. A little wet ana
unreasonable weather is one thing.
An earthquake with it's destruction
and it's terror is another and vastly
different.
Iowa is no playground. 1t is a
workship. Nowhere do men work
harder and longer hours for better
returns than in the corn country.
And Iowa is the heart and core and
cream of the corn country. The mis-
fortunes of others should merely by
comparison and par example bring
appreciation of our own mercies and
advantages. And Iowa-is a land OF
nard working, prosperous, thrifty
Iowa-is land of hard work and
hopefulness and certainties. 1t pays
what it promises and pays on the
nail. The hand Of providence raises
and lifts always in lowa;>it never
strikes. While other sections are
crippled, sore under the stroke OF cir
cumstanccs, the corn country remains
prosperous. The auto statesmen pack
their grips and hike for the corn
country. The commercial agencies
write special reports of prosperous
times for the corn country. When the
orange belt and the cotton districts
and the industrial east are on their
uppers the corn country goes right
on buying shoes. We may give fan
cy names to other sections, call them
gardens of the gods, and American
Italys and Switzerlands and the like
but the real garden of the gods is
within the thirty-five inch rain belt
and Iowa is the centrally throned
queen of that. OF course we get up
early and work late, but we build
barns and know that they will be
there in the morning, plant corn with
the certainty that we shall husk full
crop, sleep sound without fear OF
general calamity that involves cities
and states ard buy the adjoining for
ty assured that it will pay for itself.
Take the map. Go carefully over
the atlas of the world. Count climate
safety, opportunity, all that goes to
make up the best spot where man
may live and rear family. Scratch
the surface of the earth with fine
tooth comb. Seek the best place to
live in. Always shall your search
come back to the corn country, end
at the border lines of Iowa, where
the seasons render their invariable
tribute to toll, where thrift abounds,
md happiness blooms and nature
never affrights with cataclysms.-

The Hen.

Some poets sing OF grove and glen;
/ sing OF the great American hen.
Let Dobson write OF sweet Babette,
and will write of Henriette. Ii Ros-
tand can write 'Chanticler,' why
shouldn't l compose this here?
Although polygamous her life, the
hen is quite model wife. She does
mt need an Easter hat, nor shopping
60 for this and that. She raises
chicklets by the brood, and scratches
to provide them food. Her patience
is without a match when she dozen
eggs must hatch, and when OCCASION
ally a duck is born, with such a
friendly cluck, she seems to say,
How, now, my daughter, for good
ness sake avoid the water The
duckling to the water takes; then
what a noise the old hen makes:
She'll stand upon the shore and scold
while Ducky Daddles leaves the fold,
and, swimming out into the pond,
quite flabbergasts the mamma fond.
This question we often meet: Why
does chicken cross the street? To
which wiscacres have replied: To get
upon the other side. She takes her
life within her hands when on the
other side she lands, and lodging the
fast-flying wheels of trolley cars,
automobiles, and motorcycles, she
will strive into the jaws Of death to
dive.
She may be foolish, We'll admit,
and on a china egg may sit-our

A Medicine Chest for 25 cents.

In this chest you have an excellent
remedy for toothache, bruises,
sprains, stiff neck, backache, neural
gia, rheumatism and for most emer-
gencies. One Csc bottle of Sloan's
Liniment does it all-this because
these ailments are symptoms, not dis
eases, and are caused by congestion
and inflammation. If you doubt, ask
those who use Sloan's Liniment, or
better still, buy Csc bottle and

Law on Printing Council Proceedings.

A large number of resquests have
come recently to the secretary or
state and also to the municipal de-
partment of the auditors Office in re-
gard to the bill adopted by the 36th
general assembly relative to the pub
LEGATION of the proceedings of the city
and town councils. The general opin-
ion has been that the GrOut bill,
which amended the law relating to
the publication of council proceed
ings made such a publication manda-
tory, but careful reading of the
statute shows there is still question
as to whether the proceedings must
be printed The law as adopted by
the o5rd assembly provided that the
proceedings should be officially pub
lished when SO ordered by the coun-
GILL" Senator CIRCUITS bill struck
these words from the law, thinking
thereby the publication would be
made sure, but he failed to strike
from the act of the 33rd assembly
the closing clause, which still leaves
the whole matter to the discretion of
the council. The law as amended
reads as follows:
"Sec. 687-a. Immediately follow
ing regular or Speclal meeI4AS "
the city or town council, the clerk
shall prepare a condensed statement
of the proceedings of said council,
including the list of claims allowed,
and from what funds appropriated,
and cause the same to be published
in one or more newspapers of gen
eral circulation published in said city
or town, or, by posting in one or
more public places, as directed by
said council.

CURT KNOCKS OUT
COMPOUND PAVING INTEREST


In district eodrt Tuesday morning
Judge Huston held that Is Per cent
compound interest cannot be collect
ed on delinquent paving installments
and that collection OF paving taxes
and penalties are not governed by
the law on the collection OF taxes
levied on an nd vaiorem basis. Tie
held that rs per cent interest after
certisieation can be collected.
Attorney Brown for the paving tax
payers contended that as the county
treasurer did not mail out notices as
required by the statutes, no IS per
cent penalty ean be legally collected.
The court held against the contention,
and cut out the Is per cent con-
pound interest, holding that per
cent up 10 certificaiion. and IS per
cent after certifieation can be col
leeted. regardless OF the fact that the
county treasurer did not mail out no.
