According to present reports, Holtvie has been cessfu in its duplcity and has Caexico in the contention between the the location of the state hghway-and the road will pass by Bonds Cor ner the point for which Caexco has been working The of Holtvle is the of great rejoicing in that town-but the fact that Hove people able openly rejoice after such public breach of their honor be keeny regretted that that Caexico has lost fight
 The story is long one, but it is worth telling
 Hotve started working for the road through the sand hills many years ago. time counted in this young mGity and for awhile it seemed the people of that munity would be successful But they failed after great efforts Ed Boyd who supervisor from the Holtvle district put up fight that glorious He ably sisted by others the community but they strong enough to put it over and finally the struggle of the east side community ended in defeat
 Or so seemed for awhile But they were too resource ul to quit without exhausing every possibility. They thought of Calexico vigorous fighting community and decided ask aid from here Representative citizens of the two communities got together than four years ago and on sand hi just beyond the ighine canal they pghted troth Hovles representatives agreed that if CaleXico would jump in and the dead Sand Hill road they would work for the road coming close to Caexco Bonds Corner in its path from Fl Centro through Holtvlle to the sand hills.
 This agreement still gave Holtvle the road through its struggling community and left it about l2 miles away from CaeXico but people felt that road l2 miles away was close enough that they could bridge that distance and be able to derive benefits from it. and they were not so selfish as to wish to deprive Hove of such benefits it might derive by the highway passing directly througt
 In furtherance of this plight of honor public meeting was held E Caexco three years ago this past April and the sum of more than $ 200 raised in less than 20 minutes for the purpose of aiding the construction of temporary road through the sand prove it's feasibility Calexco went to bat right and fought such fight that every cham Der of commerce in Imperial valley the board of supervisors and the directors of the irrigation district and nearly every official and public organization in the county went on cord as favoring the Sand Hill road via Bonds Corner

 Calexico will not be thwarted by the people of dishonor who nhabt Holtvlle, the snug, selfsashed compa cency which allows Fl Centro to forget it's pledges
 Calexico will get highway from Yuma, through Mex ico to Caexico and through the Number Six country which will connect with the state highway to the west of Fl Centro, and this road will travel go Fl Centro and Holvlle may have their shadow of road but Calexico will have the real highway and the travel

 Caexco succeeded in doing successfully in compar- avely short what Hovfle had failed to do in several years. But Caexco stronger than it wise. CaeX co believed that communities when they pledged their word of honor pledgng something they valued: Skeptcs the few had her continually asserted that would be double crossed but the hard working big-soued honor able of this yho put the trick for Holtve could not believe that such baseness existed.
 They thought that the men of Holtvlle would live up to their agreement But Holtve wise in the ways of dupcity That town recokned upon the indifference of Fl Centro which would be content forget their pledge word just long any road their town And Fl Centro did that very thing.
 What cared they for their word if Ca1exico trusting their honor aso and working that basis should present them with highway they sothfu get for them selves?

SHE RESPECTS FLAG
So Kansas City Anti-War School
Teacher Goes Back to Work.

Kansas City, Feb. PA substi-
tute continued today to teach the
class in the James school here before
which Miss Leonora Warneson, a
young teacher wrote an anti-enlist-
ment motto recently on the school
room blackboard. Hale H. Cook, presi-
dent of the board, however, announced
today that he had instructed Miss
Warneson to return to her work to-
morrow He also said she probably
had misunderstood him when she ap-
peared before him and she believed
she had been suspended.
Miss Warneson told me today she
had every respect for the American
flag" Mr.. Cook said "She promised
not to repeat such notices as the
one written last week.
Relatives of Miss Warneson said
today that she had been given to
understand yesterday that she had
been suspended pending a report con-
corning her case to the board of edu-
cation Thursday night.
School authorities called her TODAY
and asked why she had not returned
to her school. They also reported that
petitions asking for her return were
circulated today among the families
of the pupils of her class.
Il shall report the incident to the
board" Mr.. Cook said today. But I
consider it unlikely that any action
will be taken or that she will be
asked to explain it further than she
did before me yesterday"

A FLAGMAN FOR CARS
House Bill Would Make Interurbans
Employ an Extra Man.

One method of maintaining high
wage standard is to create more soft
jobs. The house labor committee has
decided the incest, softest job in the
world would be flagman an cleo
trio or interurban train.
Down in southern Kansas, an in
terurban line sometimes operates an
electric freight train which carries
three or four cars. So Coad, of La

properly equipped without flagman
to shoe the COWS and chickens away.
A bill which the labor committee has
offered in the house provides that
every electric or interurban train of
three or more cars must employ a
motorman, conductor and a flag
man.

way once last summer" Coad eX-

AFTER THE SOFT JOBS
Senate Wants State Institutions to Dis
miss unnecessary Employees

There's woe in the numerous state
institutions of Kansas today. There's
fear and trembling among the en-
ployes. Each fears he may be asked to
less and therefore eligible to dis
missal. After getting by for years the
blow has fallen. The Kansas state
senate has slapped the wrist of the
boards and governing bodies of the va
rious institutions. And they are ex-
peeted to pass it on to the employees
The senate adopted a joint resolu-
ton today. one introduced by Sena-
tor Laing, of Russell, hereby direct
ing and requiring the governing
boards of the various institutions to
dispense with all unnecessary and
useless help in their respective institu-
TONS
The adoption of the resolution rails
ed up a mirage showing the members
of the diff. erent boards hurrying to ad-
init that they have unnecessary and
useless employees in the institutions
under them. OF course they don't
have to admit it now; they may go
out to the institutions and ask ques-
tons of the employees. Maybe, a
couple of the employees will make the
admission, then the board members
may act surprised. and come back and
announce the dismissal of the whole
crowd.
The following bills were recon-
mended for passage in the senate COM
mittee of the whole today.
Local bills under a general alias
permitting job plants instead of news
papers to print election ballots in
counties having a population of 1O0,-

who served during the civil war, who
are without means of support and who
