As the years 60 by these same
teachers hope to improve and advance
in the profession They would like
to return to Gunnison's ideal sum-
mer climate. where it is possible to
work and live in comfort literally for
every day on the calendar. That is
one reason why two important modi-
fications have been proposed in the
schools former policy. 1t has been
decided to lengthen the summer ses-
sion to full quarter. 1t has also
been decided to offer students ad-
vanced courses upon which they may
receive college credit.
These announcements should be
welcome news to those graduates OF
the old Gunnison who have since been
spending insufferable summers in hot,
windy, dusty. sweltering places that
have only the attraction of advanced
courses and degrees. The climate of
Gunnison has not changed; only the
to be had at the school.
The ultimate outcome Of this move
to accommodate the teachers in SER
vice. who must make their advance
ment during the summer session. will
be a modification Of the curriculA Of
fered during the regular quarters.
The schools will thus come to afford
regular work Of collegiate grades for
young teachers who are preparing for
junior high school teaching. or who
wish \ moro thorough preparation for
teaching. 1t will also
give local young people a chance to
do the greater part Of their under
graduate work at home. whether they
plan to teach or not. The limitation
of the school in former years to
course only two years
long. has not made the institution
to more than the limited
few who may have decided upon the
career of elementary school teaching.
AS a matter Of fact. young people
need a wider range in
which to orientate themselves. They
often discover that their decision to
be primary teachers was premature
and ill-advised. Sometimes they dis
cover that they have made mistake
in deciding upon any kind Of teach
ing. The expanded curriculum in the
Colorado State Normal School, by at
fording a better background and an
adequate training in fundamental
will thus accomplish
at least two things: it will turn out
better-trained teachers in the case OF
those who stick to the business Of
teaching; and 1t will give standard
college preparation. without loss OF
time. to those who change their minds
about teaching. as we'll as to young
people who have never entertained
the idea of being teachers.
The Gunnison school has no ambi-
tion to become university or even
one of these overgrown limitations OF
4 university. 1t expects only to be-
,ome fundamentally useful to Its con-
ltttuenev,

a rumor that Mr.. Quigley was with

"Dear Mr.. Jorgensen:
Mr.. Quigley came to the 10Th Divi-

Troyon on the ST. Mihiel Sector.
Soon after his joining US we moved
to Charny. Here Mr.. Quigley took

vermin Adds to Cost
Of Producing Pork

Washington. D. C.-Liee add
q cent a pound to the cost Of
producing pork. This has been
found in tests just completed
at the experiment farm Of the
United States department Of
agriculture at Beltsville. Nd
Twenty-four lousy hogs wers
secured and divided into two
lots as nearly equal as to quality
Of animala as possible.
The two lots were managed
and fed the same way with the
exception that one lot was treat
ed to prevent lice. The animals
were weighed at regular inter.
walls and mt the end OF the fat
tening period II wns found that
the hogs infested with lice cost
n cent a pound more to fatten
than those which were free Of
the troublesome pest.
The officials OF the depart
ment who had charge Of this ex-
pertinent give an interesting
side light in connection with
securing the lousy animals.
They communicated with some
of the departments field men.
asking them to locate lousy
hogs. 1t was some time before
a reply was received to this
surprising order. After the
