D. c. CARS MUST USE
SAFETY AIR BRAKES

Safety airbrakes will soon be ordered
equipped on all cars Of the Washing
ton hallway and Electric Company and
the Capital Traction Company by the
Public Utilities Commission. The COM
mission today notified officials Of the
railway companies OF its intention TO
issue such an order. and asked for in
formation on the subject.
Should the order be put in effect, il is
pointed out. il will probably result in
the leSsening of street car accidents. 1t
will also eliminate the demands Of the
railway union employees for cents an
hour additional for motOTmen operating
hand-brake cars.
All of the double-truck cars Of the
Capital Traction Company now are
equipped with airbrallcs and the order
will affect only a small number OF its
work cars. However. the Washington
Railway Company operates about l25
cars by hand brakes. The company Csti-
mates it will cost about $76, 900 to install
airbrakcs on these cars.
Tho commission has issued an order
approving the application OF the Union
Transf"r Company TO establish new

ABOUT FATAL ACCIDENT

The Sutherland, Iowa, Courier, in
near there of Mr.. and Mrs. R. w.
Hill, gives the following statement as
to the probable way in which the acct.
dent happened. THE accident oc-
Cured at the culvert on the short
diagonal stretch of road between the
top of Thiessen hill and the Panther
school house corner, three and a half
miles east Of Sutherland. Mr.. and
Mrs. Hill were returning from a visit
during the day at the Charles Reed
home north of Peterson. The car had
trouble climbing this hill and ran up
to the bank at the side of the road
after having just crossed the bridge,
this much being seen by the Panther
men folks who. were at work In the
field. Their attention was then called
to other things and they supposed the
car must have righted itself and went
on. About fifteen minutes later Mr..
the same road in a buggy and their
attention was called to peculiar tracks
at the side of the road, they traced
them to the bridge and found the car
upside down in the ditch beneath,
which is about fifteen feet deep. They
also saw people pinned underneath
and ran to nearby homes to give the
alarm. With the assistance the car
was lifted up and the victims were dis
covered. 1t is thought death was in
Simultaneous in both cases, as Mr..
Hills neck was broken and Mrs. Hills
face was held fast in the ground indi-
eating suffocation and she was badly
crushed. The car being found in re-
verse, it is supposed that Mr., Hill
became confused in shifting gears and
before he gained control it shot off
the road and into the ditch" The
funeral services were largely attended,
as these estimable people had many
friends at their former home.

GIFTS TO CITY LIBRARY

The city's loss is the library's gain
Mr., and Mrs. G.. A. Mathews have
given a large number of desirabl,
books to the public library. Amons
them are reference books, especially
historical material on the Civil wal
period, and several books of fiction
some of them popular S % that now
there will be more than enough to 81
around. There are also a number o.
pieces of music, nearly all of which
has already been loaned.
AS a result of the exhibit at the
Brookings County Fair the library has
gained several new patrons. All who
have spoken of converting our library
into a county library are very much
in favor of the project. We hope this
may be accomplished so that our II
brary may be more far reaching in
its influence for good.
The librarian of the Public Library
has been busy for the past week cata
~loguing the High School Library. The
task is about completed and the pros
poets are for fine cooperation between
the two institutions during the ensu.
ing year.
The library has received material
from Washington relative to war in,
surance. If some Of the returned sol.
diers are contemplating dropping their
insurance, it would pay them to call
and get some Of these pamphlets for
study before coming to a final deci-
sion; or if n has already dropped
his insurance, ii will do no harm to
read what the government has to
say on the subject, for there is surely
a message for that particular fellow,
TO consider reinstatement.

FARMERS CAN HELP STUDENTS

The agriculture department of we
Brookings High school has as its OBJ
ject the teaching Of practical agri-
culture by preparing boys to farm
not to give general knowledge of the
subject. One of the features by which
this is done is the shop work. In the
time devoted to this the boys do and
make things that are useful in daily
farm work. Besides giving the boys
who are taking this work, real vital
farm problems, it enables the school
to serve the community in a very
practical We have said that
these boys need real problems anu the
logical place to get them is on the
farms. By cooperation of the farm
ers with the school this part of the
work can become a big factor in the
training boys for the farm. Follow
ing is a suggestive list Of the Things
we will be able to do for the farmers,
making Of self feeders, racks of vari-
Gus kinds, crates, feed hunks, wagon
jacks, seed corn hangers, troughs, hog
cots, etc. There are some who prob.
ably have saws, bits, planes, sickles,
scythes. or other tools that they would
like s%harpened, ropes spliced, binder
canvasses repaired or repair work of
other kinds. If you can furnish us
some problems phone. write or visit
the agriculture department of the High
school. The above mentioned things
you will remember are only suggestive

The research which forms the basis for
this report, the Investigators point
out, is necessarily OF a preliminary
character. the bulk of their data hav-

when truck traffic on the highways

war. Further study will be necessary
to determine definitely the type of
highway best suited to withstand this
heavy traffic.

BRITAIN AND IRELAND.

Perhaps Britain's greatest blunder
has been her treatment of Ireland.
This, of course, been matter of
domestic policies, of shortshighted-
ness in modern times and of injustice
before then.
Great Britain now quite sincerely
desires to settle the Irish question, to
do justice to the Irish people. But
she finds the people 81 the Emerald
Isle averse to the only settlement she
can make with safety to herself
home rule.
The Irish of ireland now seem by
their turning to Sim Fein to declare
for independence, or something very
near it, while the Ulster Irish are de-
termined to remain part of Britain
and to refuse even home rule. If that
means their inclusion with the rest
of Ireland. This difference is racial
and deep-seated.
If Britain could now bring to bear
on the Irish question some of the
steady common sense that has served
and saved her in matters farther from
home, she would do herself and the
rest Of the world an immense SER
vice.
