SUMNER SCHOOL
TO CLOSE SOON
Session of Iowa State Extension Sum-
mer School Will Close on Friday
of This Week.
SPLENDID COURSE COMPLETED
Many of the Students So Well Pleased
With Denison That They Have
Decided to Enroll This Fall

The session of the Iowa State ex'
tension summer school, which con
vened in Denison June 7th, is fast
drawing to close. 1t will close this
week Friday. 1t is hard to estimate
the worth of this school, but it is GER
tainly considerable. 1t is branch
of the Cedar Falls State Normal col.
lege and has had faculty of teach
ers who have had years of expert
ence, and are recognized as leaders
of their profession. The course is
said to have been equal to the parent
school at Cedar Falls and offered an
unusual opportunity to residents of
this section of the state. A. G. Fuller,
the director, has proven to be the
right man for the place and much of
the success Of the school is due to
Mr. Fuller's work. G. E. Humphrey,
also did good work, and should be
given full credit for his assistance in
making the school now closing a
grand success. 1t is not likely that
the school will come here next sum-
mer, but if it should, we will all bid
it wecome, for the citizens are loud
in their praise of both the faculty and
the student body. We trust their stay
among us has been as pleasant as
their presence has been with our peo-
pie. We understand several of the
younger students are so we'll and fav-
orably impressed with our little city,
and also our schools, that they have
decided to return this fall and enroll
as students. There was some fear
at the start that we would not be
equal to the task of supplying meals
for so many, but it has been proven
that this worry was unnecessary. The
cafeteria at the college dormitory has
been able to take care of their every
want. More than an average 200 per
day have been served. We are loath
to bid the faculty and students fare
well, but trust they will take with
them only pleasant memories of their
sojourn with us.

The city fathers met at the city hall

other part of the paper, were adopted.
The first ordinance, No. 277, deals

dinance making it unlawful for any
one to stop and accost any female

MAY IMPROVE
Rail CROSSINGS
Superintendent Layden, Of North
western, Confers With CONNER
cial Club Monday on Crossings
TWO DANGEROUS CROSSINGS
Superintendent Realizes Conditions
and Said improvements Ought to
be Made at Once.

| ]. w. Layden of Boone, Superinten-
dent of the Chicago & North Western
was in Denison Monday comforting
with members of the Commercial club
in regard to the railroad crossings To-
Gated east and west of Denison. In
company with R. E. Mote, secretary
of the Commercial club and several of
our prominent business men, they Wis.
lifted the crossings at the McHenry
farm and also the crossing just east
of the Champion farm on the Manila
road. Mr.. Layden after carefully go
ing over the grounds stated that they
were very dangerous crossings and
something should be done to improve
them.
The question of building an over
head crossing at the Champion farm
was discussed but Mr.. Layden stated
that at this time, it would be impos-
sible to provide one owing to the
expense He suggested that this
very dangerous crossing could be elm
mated by running the road from the
Lincoln Highway further to the east
VI WcoL VI luC Oh eiAO ~ "AA1P
ton farm. BY doing this, it would not
be necessary to cut the road through
the hill and thus it would give a clear
view of the tracks both east and west.
The much discussed and dangerous
crossings at the McHenry farm west
of Denison could be greatly improved
in the opinion of Mr.. Layden by run
ming the road on the north side Of the
North Western right of way. Two
dangerous crossing for traffic on the
Lincoln Highway would thus be elm
mated although the first crossing
would be essential for traffic going
south of the right of way in the dir
ection of Buck Grove. The blind
crossing just west of the buildings on
the McHenry farm would be eliminated
entirely by this change. Already sew
eral lives have been lost at this cross
ing. We understand that the county
engineer is in favor of running the
road to the north of the right of way
which could be done at comparatively
small expense. ~
These three crossings, are all dan
gerOus and some action should be
taken at once to improve them.

Rt. Rev. Monsignor Bouska re-
turned from Chicago last Friday
where he had been making ar
rangements for his trip to the
Checho Slovak Republic early in
January next. In our opinion a
better man for that mission could
not have been selected. He is an
experienced man, and being a ma
tural organizer with splendid exc
cutive ability, his opinions and ad-
vice on church and other matters
should be valuable in Bohemia.
The Tabor parish during his pas
torate of 26 years has grown into
one of the largest in the state,
with church, school and parish
buildings second to none in the
state. And his good work has
been appreciated both by his pa
rishioners and his superiors, for
he was promoted to Permanent
Rectorship and then to Monsig-
norship. Responsibility gravi-
tates to them who can best shoul-
der it. We know that new res.
possibilities and hard work await
him during his stay in the land
where he was born and which he
loves, but we fear not that man
of his energy will fall down under
the task, failure being not in his
nature and vocabulary.
