NEW HEALTH CODE

Under the direction of the Civic
League, a new health code for Colum-
bia is being prepared 1t has the ap-
proval of the Charity Organization So
ciety and of the Commercial Club. A
draft of the code, in proper form for
adoption as an ordinance, will be pre-
sented to the City Council.

health committee of the City Council.

gist, will make up the board of health.
Full executive power will be given the
sanitary inspector; the others will
serve in an advisory capacity. APP
pointments will be made by the mayor

sanitary inspector is expected to re-
ceive a salary, and the determination
of the amount is left to the City Coun-
Gil.
Property owners within the sewer
district will be required to use flush
closets. Those outside the district will
use some make of the standard closets
on the market, but the selection must
be approved by the board of health.
Stable owners, or the managers,
must keep fly-tight receptacles as ma
nure reservoirs, and, between March
| and December |, must see to the re-
moval of manure at least every ten
days.
Householders must maintain tight
closing garbage receptacles. Provis-
ions for disposing of garbage are not
made.
Scavengers must secure licenses be-
fore they may operate wagons. This

SAVE THE TREES

What's the use of Arbor Day and
street beautifying contests and all the
other efforts to make Columbia The
City Beautiful" if most anyone is to
come along and whack the center out
of your trees?
How long can we call Columbia the
athens of Missouri if her beauty is
destroyed as her namesake was pillag-
ed? Two sets of four and six columns
can't retain the title. 1t takes far
more.
There is a right way and wrong
way to do everything. No Columbian
wants to run the risk of injury from
falling wires, nor is any unwilling to
to his share toward public safety. But
what wire-stretcher knows any more
about trimming trees than brick
layer does about polishing diamonds
II has often been said that it is
through example, not entreaty or fury,
that children learn. How can they be
expected to grow up possessOrs OF
civic pride with pictures of such sane
toned ruthless destruction in their
minds?
The University employees a compe-
tent landscape gardner who has never
refused his assistance when asked.
There are several men in Columbia
who understand tree trimming. And
there are few persons who will not
have their trees trimmed if notified
that it should be done.
There are ways of getting the
sought-after public safety and still
preserve the city's beauty. possible
damage suits and a great deal of civic
interest and pride.

VERMONT A RADICAL STATE

We often hear it said that Vermont
is a conservative state and that Yer
monters are slow in adopting new
ideas. The facts are quite the re-
verse Vermont in its government is
progressive almost to the point Of
radicalism and Vermonters are keen
and quick in adopting new things of
value. Occasionally this truth is dis
covered by persons whose opinion is
worth while
One gentleman who has found out a
little about the state Of Vermont after
a wide experience in other states is
Mile b. Hillegas. the new state com
missioner OF education In a short
address at Rutland a few days ago
Mr. Hillegas brought a few facts to
the attention OF his hearers that ought
to be read and digested throughout
the state. Mr.. Hillegas said in part;
Our great problem IS not money
problem. We have the best machin-
cry in Vermont for doing good school
work Of any state | know of, Our
junior high schools, our system OF
supervision and our plan of certiilca-
ton are the best there is. 1t only re-
mains to get into the schools and get
results with the material and machin-
cry we have"
IF you were asked where to go to
see the best example OF cooperation
between the school and the shop, you
would probably answer 'Fitchburg,'
because the Fitchburg plan has at.
tracted attention all over the country
but the best plan there is is in Spring
field, Vermont (Applause)
III you were to look for the best ex-
ample OF cooperation in school agri-
cultural work, you would probably
look for some town in the Middle
West, but the town CT Lyndon has
the best plan know of.
THE Lyndon schools have a green
house where the pupils grow things
summer and winter. They have two
acres of school land under cultivation

In Highgate the school was doing
problems on potato-digging, and the
pupils took the job OF digging pota-
toes from large field close to the
school. The owner listened to the in
stiuctions to the class at work and
asked leave TO come into the school
room and hear the work outlined in
"a theoretical way.

The critical situation in Russia is
shown by the unprecedented action of
the Russian government in announc-
ing to the Russian people the price
agreed or by Russia for joining with
England in an alliance against Ger
many This price to be collected by
Russia with the consent of England
and France was Constantinople and
the Dardanelles. OF course it was not
intended by any of the entente powers
that this agreement should become
public until after the war was won,
but apparently the demand for a more
liberal government in Russia has he
come so strong that the cars govern
ment was driven to make the agree-
ment public in order to quiet the
popular clamor. This announcement
wrung from the Russian cabinet also
throws some light on the cause OF the
war as ii is not probable that so i'm
portant an agreement could be wholly
concealed from Germany and Austria.
Likewise it justiies Turkeys entrance
into the war In fact it shows that
Turkey has more honorable reason for
being in the conflict than can be Of

gerents so far as is known Even
