Kirkland and Hutchinson of the New

awarded the Albany District Prize OF
a silver loving cup to Grant NJ. Selch,
Union School, Round Lake.
This essay has been sent to Wash

"The army has changed since the
war 1t is now peace-time organ

mocracy, an organization in which any
red blooded man may enlist with as
surance of profitable returns.
"If you wish to travel-join the

may see all the sights on the way.
Travel is an education in itself
ut is the endeavor of the Army to
turn a, man back into civil life bet
ter and more efficient citizen. He
is put through drills that strengthen
and develop both mind and body. He
is taught laws of hygiene and clean
illness. He is put in charge of other
men and so is taught self assurance.
This all helps man in later life.
Bodily strength, cleanliness and self
assurance will give young fellow a
big boost in civilian life. Congress
has made appropriations for the estab-
lishment of vocational schools in train.
ing camps. Reference libraries have
been provided at divisional camps for
the use of students. 1t will help the
soldier to get bigger pay after he
leaves the Army.
THE average pay in the Army is
from thirty dollars a month for pri-
vate to one hundred and twenty dol
lars for an aviation mechanic. That
seems very little. But you are furnish
ed board, clothes and given medical
care. In civilian life a man makes
about four dollars a day or one hun
bred month But he pays at least
rem dollars a week to Mrs. Prime for
Board and room, without speaking of
clothing. fare to and from work and
other minor necessities. But what the
soldier makes is pure gain. The me-
chanic's wages have many strings at
tached.
ain summing up the benefits of an
enlistment in the United States Army
would say that it gives one a chance
to travel, learn, earn and save, it in
creases his love for his country and
fits him for a good soldier in time OF
war and a better citizen in time of
peace. Every one loves a fighter,
whether in business, politics or on the
battlefield"

Many farmers with the coming of the
few pretty days recently are preparing
to SOW oats, indications being that there
will be rather larger seeding of this
grain than usual if weather conditions
permit. The scarcity of corn turnout
the county and the short supply of hay
MAKES the need for big oat crop the
greater. Last year the oat crop was
small because of continued rains, and
what were planted made poor crop,
thus reducing to almost nothing the
oat yield in this county last year.

WOULD LIMIT
ELECTRIC POWER
Union Company Would Keep Mis-
souri, Industries From Getting
More Circuit From keo-
kuk Dam.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Oct. 90
The application Of the St louis Union
Electric Light and Power company,
for an order from the state pubic
service commission, limiting the
amount Of hydroelectric current some
twenty-five st. Louis Industries may
obtain in the future was argued be-
fore the commission
Two former members of the com
mission, Judge William F. Woerner
and Eugene McQuiIlin, appeared In
the arguments, the former represen emit
ing the Missouri Portland Cement
cop,pany and the latter The Continefs
tai Cement company. The Evens'
Howard Fire Brick company was also
represented.
The point at issue is the right OF
the industries to obtain as much cleo,
trio current from the Keokuk dam as
their business may require. The st
Louis Union Electric wants them to
be limited to the amount they were
securing March 81 of the present
year, and supply what may be lack
ing from the St Louis company. The
Industries object to this on the
ground that the steam generated cleo
tricity costs more than the current
obtained from the dam at Keokuk
On the other hand the st. Louis com
pany contends that at the rate the
Industries are consuming electric cur
rent, the power from the dam VIII
presently not be sufficient to supply
the requirements of the lighting com
pany, and that the Industries should
be required to stick to the erigfna
amount they contracted for, and I
more rs required as their business
extends, secure what is needed from
the local company.
The commission has taken the ap
pIication under advisement.

lowed to lapse until additional funds
can be secured.
Each of the other institutions are
doing very important work, training
teachers, social work, engineers, law
yers, doctors, mining engineers,
pharmacists, psychological experts,
juvenile court workers.
Some of these schools have in the
last three years had large increases
in their enrolment, the Agricultural
College so per cent; the University
So per cent, and the School Of Mines
100 per cent; thus making the main
tenance funds more inadequate than
ever.
In the interests of meeting such
conditions the friends of higher ed
ucation in Colorado have submitted
the Educational Amendment whereby
the mill levy will be raised from four
to five mills. This will enable the
Legislature to enact appropriation
bills to meet the needs of the five
schools SO they may be able to retain
their faculties and maintain their
high standards Of efficiency and
service.
To bring this matter to the atten-
tion of the voters of this community
there was organized the Gunnison
Educational Club with the following
officers:
President, Professor J. s. Ferris.
Secretary, Miss Margaret Collins.
All friends of h;-her education are
urged to cooperate with the Club to
present this matter to the voters.
