1hene Is no wish to belittle or under
value the services of those who are
trained outside of the state, but 1t is
obvious that state can never reach
the best expressions of its growing
ana developing life unless 1t has the
major portion of its teachers trained
within its own state institutions. There
iore, 1t would seem to be a cause for
congratulation that the state university
mas made this definite and important
forward move in establishing COM
plete and well directed school of educa-
ton Not only will this school have
friendly and effective connections with
the state normal schools, but it will

The second valuable point of contact
which the state university is endeav-
oring to establish In this enormous
Idaho county, is concerned with agri-
cultural interests. The wonderful Cam
as Prairie Is noted for its fertility and
productivity. 1t is peopled by a vigor-
Gus and virile class of farmers. Their
past progress is a pledge of the yet
greater future which lies before them.
Naturally they will be interested in
the Improvement of farm methods, farm
crops, and live stock This improvement
can be facilitated by scientific stud
les and the establishment of helpful
relationships between the farmers and
students Of agriculture To the promo

The gold saving machine and devices

In commenting on the above article,
the Lewiston Tribune truthfully says:
The commission is mistaken somewhat
however, as to the impractdcability OF
doing effective work ON khe grades of
Salmon river during the winter. The
Salmon river country. between Higgins
and White Bird, has one OF the most
equabje climates during she winter sea-
son in the United States north of the
southern and southwestern states sThere
are many months of open weather DUR
ing the winter, with Hnt1a snow on
cold.
The road along the Salmon river,
which Warden Snook has recommended
Shall be improved, was built IN the
eanly days of statehood by the state,
and under the active supervision Of q
commission of whom the late Mr.. Le-
wander was a member. This road
which is par excellence the scenic
highway of the state, was slSilfully laid
out and considering the small amount
of money expended and the difficulties
encountered and overcome. was one Of
the best ever built In the state. Un-
fortunately it was built before the day
of the auto, and as a consequence the
curves in places are so sharp that q
long heavy car can hardly be driver
over the road. T here are miles of ths
road built along rocky .ciiffliloe hills
where the Roadway had to be carvet
out of the hillside, and although ther,
are ample turnouts provided when onl!
teams are to be met, when a team
meets an auto no protective devices
have been provided that would tenC
TO prevent dangerous accident with tim
ID or fractdous horses. BY the use o
a party of convicts along this oa'
throughout the coming fall and winter
there Is no doubt that when trave
opens next spring IT might well
that here would be one Of the most at
tractive roads IN the United State
over which to drive an auto.

COMMENDED "SAFETY FIRST"
New Haven Official Addressed Over
 1000 of Their Workers.

With addresses by several company heads the safety f1rst' meeting of New Haven road men Sunday in New Haven brought out between 1000 and 1000 workers.
 President Elliott greeted the men as fellow employees and at the opening of his speech said: q am glad to see that there are so many different eX- ecutives from various departments of the road on the program as speak CTS"
 The speaker than told the men that the 26.000 stockholders. of whom about 1000 held less than 50 shares were their real employers. He said that if these people had the courage and con- fidence to invest their money in the road they should do their part to keep down the amount of money lost through accidents. President Elliott then presented statistics showing the large number of people who travel over the road each year, and also to show what a small amount of money saved in one way or another by each man would do toward decreasing the over head expenses during the year
 In closing, President Elliott said: ''The country is beginning to realize the importance of railroads and bright CT days are coming for the railroads in the United States, New England and for the New Haven road" General Manager c. L. Bardo, in trOduced by the chairman as the stboss," read statistics showing the great decrease in the number of em- ployes dismissed since the safety first movement started in 1913, as compared with the previous year. MT. Bardo talked in a practical manner on the subject of safety first. He told the men they should follow the rules for the sake of their welfare and that of their families. In the first place an accident causes anguish and suffering to the victim or his family. and train accidents through the negligence of employees cause loss to the road. Other speakers were J. c. Sweeney, general attorney for the system, who spoke on the legal aspects of acci- dents, and w P. Sturtevant assist ant claim attorney of the Lackawanna road.
 The opening address was made by the chairman, Conductor F. A. Shutes, who welcomed the railroad men pres
 ent on behalf of the reception com mfttee.
 He asked the employees to carry on the safety first movement with en- | thusiasm and closed with a request for three cheers and a tiger for the | New Haven road, to which the men responded with a will.
 A. R. Whaley, vice president. spoke | of the increased efficiency which the safety first movement had brought with it, and mentioned that while the road had been through somewhat l troublous times of late the movement I was doing much toward decreasing ! the operating expenses.

ACADEMY HAS POTTERY KILN
Clay Work by Art Students Can Now be Fired HereNew Impetus Given to This Kind of Work-Successful Re- suits Obtained Searching Now for Clay in Nearby Territory

A new acquisition to the equipment of the Academy buildings is the kiln for firing pottery, which was purchas- ed some time in January and has all ready been used or times with great success. Before this all the work of firing had to be sent away to one of the Faienee companies for completion. This was difficult un- dertaking, not cnly because of the frailty of the clay in the unf1red state, but also because F.aience companies invariably refused to fire students work.
 If work is not evenly packed, if air holes or foreign matter are left in the clay, an explosion in the firing is bound to follow and the burst1ng piece of pottery is liable to break and ruin ware about it. So teachers and pupils in both the Art school and the Academy are quite enthusiastic over their kiln and a sudden impetus has been given this kind of work.
 Saturday is Baking Day.
 Saturday is baking day every where and last Saturday was firing day in teresting to look through the tiny is- inglass peep holes into the big muf- f1e and fire chamber, and watch the red flames of the burning kerosene turning the green pottery into biscuit. This was accomplished at a temper the point to which the kiln has been heated each time thus for. For hard CT ware the temperature would be raised to 2030 degrees. Different gIazes, too, require different degrees of heat In the biscuit firing, the pieces are packed closely together ! frequently pieces being placed one within another. But when glazes are being fired care is taken that the pieces do not touch each other and that different kinds of glazes or colors are not placed near each other. Aft large crane door. is swung into posi- ton and the fuel is lighted.
 Kiln Heated Slowly.
 The kiln is heated slowly. For the first half hour the oil from the two 5 gallon cans drops rapidly. Then 8 small stream is turned on and this Is gradually increased until, toward the end of the firing, at least. 10 gallor of oil are burned in an hour. After the fire has burned about two hours the muffle of the kiln shows a glow whicE brightens to a cherry red.
 At this stage all the drafts are opened and the fire is increased rap idly.
 The muffle soon becomes incandes- cent and then it is necessary to watcf the seggers carefully. These are lit tie cones and act as thermometers They are composition made to melt at various temperatures.
 Temperature Of 2030 Degrees. If the kiln is to be fired to 2030 de- grees, cones melting at 1894 degrees and 2o30 degrees are put on little shelves in front of the peep holes, al each end of the muffle. When the segger melting at 1894 degrees begins to drop, careful watching begins fol when this cone topples over, the one melting at 2030 degrees begins to tip It is watched breathlessly and the firing is pushed, When this second
 cone melts and falls, the firing is done. The heat is then lowered grad ually Too sudden a change in tenn

perature found crack or craze the ware. The kiln is left for 15 hours to become thoroughly cool before 1t is opened. Two kinds of clay were used in the various pieces. The gray clay made white biscuits and the red clay burned into a. buff colored biscuit. Va rious glazes, opaque and transparent, are used on this biscuit surface. Sometimes the piece is dipped into the color and then the surplus color Is put on. the biscuit must be fired again. Both green pottery and glazed bis cult were in process of baking the other day, as the glaze was one which required the same temperature as the unf1red ware. Otherwise they could not have been put in together. This work in pottery gives excellent train ing in form and color as well as man ual skill Some of the pieces are built up by hand, while many others are thrown on the wheel
 How Students Begin.
 Students begin with tile making and hand built bowls. These hand built pieces are more or less limited in form Thrown pieces can be of great variety. Dexterity in throwing, how ever, is only acquired after much practice. The facility for glazing gives the color training which was lacking without the kiln.
 The students are now hunting about town for clay That which they are using comes from the bed of the Con- necticut river, but they are sure that clay can be found here As the sam pies are brought in, they will be test ed and fired. There was an old pot tery up town in Colonial days, which must have used clay from near here
 A few days ago the students were amused when some strangers were particularly interested in the ventilat- ing plant in the cellar of the Con- verse Art Gallery, which they thought was the new kiln. Other guests were noticed looking behind screenes an6 model stands for it. As the kiln is { or 10 feet high and weighs 375t pounds and as it burns 40 gallons O. oil in a firing and roars at it's work it would not be easy to hide and car readily be found in the Manual Train ing building, generally at work or Saturdays.
