Agrees to Help Mark the Interstate
Trail.

The Greater Des Moines commit
tee has agreed to help st. Paul and
Kansas City organizations finance
the marking of the new Interstate
Trail, the latest road between Kan
sas City and the Twin Cities.
Signs bearing the mark of the
road-a white background with a
diagonal blue stripe-and the name
of St. Paul, Des Moines and Kansas
City will be placed at every inter-
section between the two terminals.
The Interstate Trail now is
marked through Des Moines, and it
is logged in the Blue Book. 1t is
over the part of this road between
Des Moines and Ames that it is ex-
pected Des Moines will draw much
of it's transcontinental tourist trade
during the coming summer. 1t is
hoped the route from Chicago to
Ames over the Lincoln highway,
from Ames to Kansas City over the
Interstate Trail, and thence west
will be popular with tourists.-Reg-
lister and Leader.

When we got the ak to the main
floor, the proprietor had to butt In.

Buying an AK.

Did you ever buy an ak and car
ry it along the street? If not, then
just do it. 1t is worth the price just
to hear the remarks that will be
made. OF course If you are in a
position where an ak is part of your
regular equipment nobody may no.
tice it. But just let an editor, a
banker, newspaper man, a mer-
chant or a preacher get one, and he
will have some fun. Last night we
bought one and started for the office.
Being something of farmer, we
felt rather Inundated that anybody
should take notice of such thing.
The store had the axes way back
in the cellar, as they said very few
people want them at this season of
the year. The clerk hunted around
among a lot of tools, and then when
he got his hand on an ak handle he
queried, want a mans ax?" In the
name of all the wood choppers, what
kind >ef an ak do you suppose he
though might be wanted.

FRIDAY APRIL % SET AS ARBOR
DAY.
Gov. Clarke Has Issued His Annual
Proclamation, Urging People of
State to Observe This Day,

Governor Clarke issued pro-
clamation Friday, designating Fri
day, April 23rd, as Arbor Day. He
recommends that it be observed in
the schools, by women's clubs and in
such other ways as the people may
deem advisable.
The ministers are asked to speak
to the people regarding Arbor day
on April 18.
The proclamation follows:
1T is a 81 eat misfortune to the
state that her woodlands are so
rapidly disappearing, both because
of their usefulness and great beauty.
The traveller can but note how re-
freshing it is when the train runs
through stretch of woods. The
majesty, the strength, the beauty,
the silence of the woods respond to
something in the very depths of us.
The owners of fine woods ought to so
use them as to preserve them. The
state ought to be interested in some
fine state parks. The day of her OPP
portunity is gone by. A tree in Iowa
ought to be regarded as sacred. Out
of the future will come the voice of
Iowa crying, why did the men of the
earlier day allow everything prim-
eval to be swept away, why did they
make no provision for greater,
larger, finer life, why were they with
out vision, why were they thought
less of the future?
1T is the custom to set apart a
day called Arbor Day, and in accord
ance with this custom do hereby
designate Friday, April %, 1916, as
such day and recommend that it be
observed in the schools of the state,
by women's clubs and in such other
ways as the people may deem advis-
able and convenient, and that on
Sunday, April IS, the ministers Of
the state speak to the people about

obligation to the future as herein
suggested, to the end that Arbor day
may have real significance. That
the same thought have pre-eminence
in the schools, that the children be
taught the value and beauty of trees,
that trees be planted, especially in
the country and at points where it
can be seen how much beauty a great
tree fifty years hence will add to the
landscape"

The Veterans Are Passing.

The civil war closed fifty years
ago this month There had been en-
listed on the Union side close to two
million men. Of this number some
thing less than five hundred thous-
and now survive. These are dying
at the rate of thirty-five thousand
every year. Every day one hundred
union veterans of the war are mus
tered out.
According to the figures of actu-
aries at the end of the next decade
1925, there will remain alive about
fifty thousand of the two million
men who served on the union side in
the civil war This is one out Of
forty 1t is really a remarkable trib-
ute to the physical and moral man
hood of the union soldiers that fifty
years after the war One-fourth of
their number should still survive.

CAN QUINTET REPEAT?
Interest in Coming Golf Champions
 Centers About Champion.

Detroit, Aug. 23.-Will Francis Ouimet succeed in defend.ng his title as amateur golf champion Of the United States? As winner of the open championship in 1913, when he defeated, among others
 the great British professionals Har- ry Vardon and Edward Ray, and as winner of the amateur cham pionship in 1914, in which he de- feated Jerome D. TraVers, four times amateur champion, 6 up and to play, there is naturally great iisterest in what he will do when the amateur golf championship of 1915 is contested for, Aug. 2S to Sept. 4, on the links of the Country club of Detroit. Will Jerome D. Travers open champion of tho United States and the other scratch man, turn the tables on Quimet and not only be open as well as amateur champion for 1915, a record never heretofore made in the history of American golf? Will one of the vet crans, Charles Evans, Jr., or w. J. Travis, or will che of the young
 sters, Philip Carter of the Nassau County club or Max R. Marston of the Cranford Golf club, Frank w. Dyer of the Montclair Golf club, Hamilton K. Kerr of the Ekwanol1 Country club or some other now star or old star, flash into view as winner of the championship All of these interesting questions will be answered during the tourney The winner will receive gold medal, and his club will be the cu3- todian of the Havemeyer cup for one year. The play for the cham pionship will open Saturday, Aug. 2s, with preliminary qualifying round of eighteen holes medal play, ,and the best sixty-four will be eligible to play in thirty-six holo qualifying medal play round on Monday, the thirty-two players having the pest scores for tho thirty-six holes to qualify for the championship. Beginning Tuesday, the thirty-two play CTS will play thirty-six hole match play round, and the survi- vors of each day will continue play jug thirty-six hole match play rounds until Saturday, when the two finalists will play the same numb of holes for the champion ship itself.

BOXING ASSOCIATION FORMED Promoters Meet in Cleveland, and
 Organize-HinkeI is President.

Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 23.-Fifteen boxing promoters and managers, rep resenting as many sections of the country and alm ost as many more promoters yesterday formed the Am erican Boxing Association of the United States. The. purpose of the organization is to promote boxing in it's best form to exert control over the sport, to protect the public, the box CT, the manager, and the promoter. M. U. Hinkel of this city was elected president; Gene Melady of Omaha, secretary and treasurer, and Harry Edwards of Philadelphia, first vice president.
 A committee consisting of Sam Harris, Baltimore; Mike Collins, Hudson, Wis; Tom Anlrews, Mill waukee, and Harry Edwards, Phila- de1phia, was appointed by President Hinkel to meet with Eastern promo ters who were unable to attend the . convention here, at the Knickerbock- CT Hotel, New York, Sept. 12, the day after the Gibbons Mcfarland contest
 The pIOpOSdl u dlLGT IIl6 w GlS Tt limits for the various classes was passed That means that hencefort11 fhe limits to be recognized by the A. B. A. are: bantamweight, 11S: fea- therweight, 125; lightweight 1855; l welterweight, 147; middleweight 16o; light heavyweight 175.
 It was agreed to reduce the en- trance fee for admission to the asso- citation from $25 to $1o. It was de- cided that the larger sum would pre- vent small clubs from becoming al lied with the organization.
 It was feared at first that the New York promoters especially would show only a lukewarm,, if any, inter. est in the association. But, in view of the fact that three Gotham promo. ~ ters have signified their intentions o1 joining, it seems probable that other! will follow suit. Billy Wellman O. the Madison Square Garden, New York; John Finneran and Hugl Shannon of Erie, Ed Thatcher o Toledo and one or two others applied for admission into the organization
 Every officier in the new Anrerica1 Boxing Association donates his ser vices. There are no salaries. Tn dues of both promoters and boxer are so low as to provide only enougl money to cnduct the affairs the or ganization.
