the establishment and maintenance OF
three new moral schools--all doing
excellent work--and the maintenance
OF a number of summer schools mainly
for the professional training of teach
ers already in service.
The minimum training which every
elementary teacher should possess is
graduation from a four-year standard
high school and two years of profess
sional training obtained in a normal
school.
Four times as many new teachers
are needed each year as all the normal
schools combined can supply from
their graduates. and yet they have so
much difficulty in securing positions
for their graduates that each school
Is forced to maintain an active employ
ment bureau. and even then many re-
main unplaced until all the best posi-

planks in its platform.

3. A better system of apportion-

4. More and better supervision.
s. Compulsory education
{, Better trained teachers.
{. Better salaries. and longer school

House Catches Fire

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. E.
Kuenzli caught fire during the
severe storm Tuesday morning,
the lightning burning the insu-
lation from the electric wiring
and igniting the wood of the
floor in the attic. When the
smell of smoke brought Mr..
Kuenzli to the scene the floor
was ablaze, a place about fifteen
inches in diameter having been
burned away. Fortunately the
tank of water in the attic fur
nished a means of Immediately
quenching the flame and there
were no serious results. Inspec-
ton by an electrician showed
that the wiring had been burned
entirely free of insulation and
some slight difficulty was ex-
perienced in making this condi-
ton safe. All the houses in this
Isection of the city had the fuses
burned out and their lighting
systems badly crippled.

The game of baseball staged
at the fair grounds last Sunday
afternoon was given in honor of

to furnish them an afternoons
recreation. They enjoyed the
game hugely and had the time

After twenty years OF service
in the army, Rodney, a horse,
has been pensioned. For the re-
mainder of its life the old horse
will be cared for in Washington
at the expense of the govern
ment.
In Kansas City a circus man
has pensionod five Of the horses
that helped bring him a fortune
by tricks and fancy riding in
the ring. They have a comfort
able stable, a good pasture and
a man to care for them, the feed
bill alone costing $50 a month.
Men and women who have
worked for the government as
letter carriers, postal clerks and
in other positions, many years
longer, and more faithfully than
the old horse, are retired with
out pay or pension when they
are worn out. When they be-
come too old to work they must
get out and shift for them
selves. Even an old horse gets
Abetter treatment from the gov
eminent than an old man or

And probably the circus man

became of the men and women,
now old, who used to ride those
same horses he has pensioned.
