Editors Note:-In an exhaustive
report prepared by County Superin-

census of Crowley county many inter-
esting things are brought out. Mr.
Rhine's report is the most complete
that has ever been made of the var
ious school districts of the county
and it has required considerable time
to prepare in order to give all the in
formation of interest. This report
is worth saving for reference by a
great many of Crowley county's
people.

County Superintendent of Schools
According to a compilation of the

atOrs there are 2239 persons in

The report shows gain in school
population of 126 over last year,
and is the largest gain made in the
history of the county except in the
years 1915 and 1916. II the general
school fund should be $6.55 per child
next year as this, there would be dis
tributed to the various districts the
sum of $14 4,665.45 by the county
superintendent. 1t is likely to in
crease rather than decrease, for 1t
has been increasing for the past sew
eral years. The size of this fund is
dependent somewhat upon the fines
collected by the various courts of the
county.

MAKING STREETS SAFE
FOR AUTOMOBILES

Making the streets safe for automo-
biles is noble work which has re-
cevied but little attention. The fol-
lowing rules for pedestrians have
been suggested:
1. Pedestrians crossing streets at
night shall wear a white light in
front and a red light in the rear.
?. Before turning to the right or
left they shall give three short blasts
on a horn at least three inches in
diameter.
3. When an, inexperienced automo-
bile driver is made nervous by a pc
destrian, he shall indicate the same,
and the pedestrian shall hide behind
a tree until the automobile has
passed.
4. Pedestrians shall not carry in
their pockets any sharp instrument
which may cut automobile tires.
5. In lodging automobiles pedes-
TRANS shall not run more than seven
miles an hour.
6. Pedestrians must register at the
beginning of each year and pay a IL
cense fee of S. for the privilege of
living. There shall be no rebate if
they do not live the entire year.
4 Each pedestrian before receiving
his license to walk upon the streets.
must demonstrate before an examin-
ing board his skill in lodging. leap
ing, crawling and extricating himself
from machinery.
s. Pedestrians will be held respon-
sible for all damages done to auto
mobiles or their occupants by coils
ion.

ENROLMENT AT..Sl. C.
NOW BECOMES ACTIVE
Need For New Dormitories VIII
Be Acutely Felt This
Fall
DIR. RIPPERE ACTING PRES,

Enrolment of students for st. Johns
for the coming year is now going on
rapidly. and Doctor John b. Rippere.
acting President in the absence OF
President Fell, is busily engaged with
correspondence TO the prospective
cadets All indications are. DR.
Hippere said this morning, that the
enrolment at the college this year
will be a very large one. Last year
the dormitories were all filled and
some of the students were forced to
find room downtown. 1t begins to APP
pear that the condition will be still
more congosted during the coming
year and that some other special ar
rangement for students rooms will
have to be made
The cadets of the coming year will
have some advantages which they have
not had in any previous years of the
r. o. T. C. This is the additional
communication which is to be allowed
next term The amount allowed to
each student who is a member of the
r. o. &c. will be about thirty dollars
cash Communication for a uniform and
between fifty and sixty cents day
Communication of rations. Most of the
students of the college arc members
of the Senior Division of the r. o. T.
c.. and through it they gain the davan-
tago of considerable amount of pay
on their college expenses.
The Military Department at st.
Johns is now in as strong condition
as il has ever reached. Major S
c. Leasure. u S. Army, the Command
ant, succeeded last year in bringing
the X. o. T. c. unit to high stand
ard of perfection. Assisted by Cap
tain A. j. O'Keefe, 1t is expected that
next year the handling of the r. o
T. C.. will be done in the most efficient
possible manner. Besides the two Off
GERS who are stationed here by the
War Department, there are two nom
commissioned regular army assistants
at st. Johns
The recent favorable reports from
Camp Devens, where the students were
highly pleased with their summer
work, will lead probably to an in
creased number of r. o. t. c. men for
the coming year, since the students
will have pleasant anticipation OF
the summer camp, which has hereto
fore been looked upon as something
moro or less of an unpleasant part OF
the work
Completion of courses in military
at the college and attendance at the
summer camp will qualify the students
for commissions in the Officers Re
serve Corps of the Army, but gradu-
ates are not required to enter the
army. The physical benefits. however,
as we'll as the mental training, are
thought to be of high value to the
students, inasmuch as habits OF
promptness. neatness, obedience, sys-
tenn and decision are inculcated by the
training in military.

MORE VESSELS
FOR U. S. NAVY
Much Interest Manifested In
Recommendations Of Secre-
tary Of Navy Daniels
CAPITAL SHIPS BULL T

Much interest is manifest in and
out of the navy as to the recommends
tons Secretary Daniels may make in
his last annual report. to be submit
ted TO Congress in December. in re-
gard TO additional vessels for the navy
When Mr.. Daniels entered the Of
fee of Secretary of the Navy over
small navy" man, and in those days
he was Indifferent TO such develop
ment of naval power as was advocated
by most naval officers and was urged
by many members of Congress. He
has lived TO surpass many of those
with whom ne formerly found himself
in opposition. and in his last annual
report he insisted that we should have
navy second to none.
There are now under construction
for the navy IL battleships, 6 battle
cruisers, 10 scout cruisers, 79 destroy
eTs, 81 submarines and number of
auxiliary vessels. Practically all of
them were authorized in the so-called
three-year building program carried
in the appropriation act of 1916 and
amendments thereto, which increased
the number of destroyers, submarines
and auxiliaries, but not of capital
ships. Since then appropriations for
| capital ships havo been mainly for
/ their completion and to meet increas-
ed cost of production.
OF the capital ships under construc-
| ton, the California is scheduled to be
completed in December of this year
1 the Maryland in September, 1921, the
Colorado in June, 1922, the Washing
ton in December, 1922, the Iowa and
Massachusetts, in 1923, and the re-
naming five in later years. Work
on these ships was delayed during the
war as a result of concentration OF
/ effort on destroyers and other smaller
craft Progress on the six battle
cruisers suffered even more delay for
the same reason, most OF them were
not laid down until after signing oil
the armistice, and the first of them
the Lexington, is not scheduled fol
! completion until September, 1928.
After the signing of the armistic6
the question was raised whether work
should be continued on the capita
ships previously authorized 1t was
decided that it should, and appropria-
tions have been made for that pur.
pose. However, no new capital ships
since have been authorized.
With work progressing more OF
less satisfactorily on the vessels o.
the building program adopted in 1915
and continued in later years, Congress
will be confronted, possibly at tn,
coming session and certainly at the
next oRe, with the problem as Il
whether additional capital ships shall
be added to the navy.
Therefore, the recommendation.
hat are made this year by Mr.. Dan
;els in that connection and the actor
Congress may take thereon is of con.
siderable moment as indicating thC
policy to be followed by this countr,
in the maintenance Of sea power.
