COLLEGE COURSES
CUT one YEAR
That is Plan Des Moines College is
Building Upon. No College Man
to Spend Four Years Get
ting Higher Education.
PROPOSAL TO EQUIP
BOYS FOR BUSINESS
Courses to be Devised So Graduates
May Step Into Life Work mt
End of shorter Schooling.

Des Moines.-The College man of
the near future isn't going to spend
four years in getting higher educa-
tion. Neither is he going to spend 1t
in studying subjects which do not
have a direct bearing on the career
which he has decided to follow. His
course will be cut down to three
years and his studies will be worked
out in connection with the big insti-
tutions of the country which repre-
sent best the type of business in
which he plans to engage.
This is the belief of President John
Earl, head of Des Moines College,
who is now building up such a
course in the belief that it will soon
become the recognized system fol-
lowed by larger colleges throughout
the country in their business pro-
gram.
In a s3,000,000 extension program
which will be carried out by the col
lcge during the coming two years,
business course established on this
basis will be built up. The studies
to be followed will be worked out by
college officials in conjunction with
large national corporations. These
courses will be designed to fit men
to. step directly into Jobs as soon as
their college educations have been
completed.
"Within a few years, with such a
course we viii be able to tell 5,
freshman upon entering college that
we viii have definite position wait
ing for him when he graduates" Dr.,
Earl stated yesterday. while this
is not going to work into an employ
ment bureau, it will seek to place
men where they can work best and
where they can make the most of
their natural gifts combined with
their education. p

SHORTAGE 900
iowa TEACHERS
Conditions Now Give Indications Of
Growing Worse, Says the State
Superintendent of Schools.
FINDING NEW EMPLOYMENT
AT INCREASED WAGES
Those Remaining i'm School Work
Signing Up New Contracts at
Their Own Figures.

Des Moines.-Iowa's teacher short
age is just beginning, according to
reports being received at the office of
F. E. McClennahan, state superinten-
dent of schools.
There is shortage of over 600
teachers in the state at the present
time, the superintendent records
show. At present only per cent of
the instructors in city, town and
rural schools are men. The shortag .
lis growing in proportion to the in
crease of the cost of living.
Most of the teachers who are leav-
ing their present jobs are finding new
employment at increases of 80 per
cent and upward, officials state.
Those who do remain in the business
and sign contracts for work next
year are getting practically whatever
salaries they may ask for, so serious
is the situation.
A majority Of the instructors are
refusing to sign contracts for the
.192O-21 term, believing that the
wage offers made by the various bid
ding school boards will go much
higher by next summer, as the short
age becomes more acute.
1t has been suggested from several
parts of the state that school boards
send in appeals to the governor for a
special session of the legislature in
order that they may obtain relief for
school funds already so depleted that
teachers can not be paid larger sal
aries, even should the boards desire
to grant increases.

Dread of Growing Old.

We heard a man in Cedar Rapids,
the other day, says the Cedar Rapids
Republican who breads to grow old.
1t worries him, it frets him and he
would like to ward off the ravages of
time. He wants to remain young, per-
haps, to live forever. But bye and
bye he will change his mind. In other
words, he will be compelled to give
up. He will become recinciled, as
others have to become reconciled.
Life is a great boon and the world
is a pleasant place in which to tarry.
We are not surprised that the
thought that one must leave it, some
time, may worry some men.
But it is not worth worrying over
for the simple reason that worries
will do no good. Time will continue
to slip away and every time the sun
sets every being living is twenty-four
hours nearer the end of his Journey.
And the days journeys are limited
for every one. Some of us think that
We can prolong them, and some OF us
believe that the end will come when
It Is destined to come. For every man,
there must be fixed time for depart
ing this life. But we should not
worry over 1t. Take each day as IL
comes, make the most of 1t and have
no concern about the end of them
Some men have worried some years
off the end Of life. over Just such
matters.
The only thing that is worth while
is to live we'll. to live cleanly and
nobly. Loving the world and cherish
ing life, thankful for It's blessing and
its benefits. Let one be all the time
grateful to kindly heaven that he
is permitted to live at all. that II
is was his good fortune to be born
into world with so many oppor-
tunities, so many and so manifold
blessings. 1t is g great thing to live
1t is great thing to have lived. y
is a still greater thing to live we'll
And to have lived we'll, means to
have been honorable in all the rela'
tions of life, true to convictions. true
to friends. helpful to all and hopeful
for self.

BOOKED MORE
BIG ATTRACTIONS.
Winneshiek Fair Managers Have
Lined Up Great Array Of Free
Attractions for Fair This
Year.
HORSE RACING TO
BE A BIG FEATURE
More Money Will Be Paid For the
Free Acts This Year Than for
Any Other Ever Brought
Here.

In our last issue we mentioned the
fact that Ruth Laws Flying Circus
had been booked for the Winneshiek
County Fair. This is said to be one
of the greatest thrillers ever witness
sed anywhere, a man changing from
one areoplane to another in mid-air,
without the aid Of a rope ladder. Our
fair will be the only one getting this
attraction outside of the big state
fairs.
But this is not the only free at
traction, as several other high class
ones have been booked also, which
includes "Ebenezer," the famous
Ham Tree" mule. This is comedy
mule act on the platform and is a
scream from start to finish. 1t is an
act that plays all the state fairs.
The Havana Japs, man and wo-
man, is another good booking. They
have two distinct acts, water spin
ming, juggling, comedy barrel kick
ing act, etc.
The Skating Macks" novelty
trick skaters, in some entirely new
acts in another fine attraction. Be-
sides these dandy attractions Walter
Raub, the balloonist will be with US
again, and he is without doubt one
OF the very best in the business and
an attraction that is always welcom-
ed. 4
S The horse racing program is GO
ing to be the best ever seen here, and
rhe beat line of hsrses Geg ss.sis
over the track will be entered.
The dates Of the fair this year will
be Aug. 10-l1-12-13. From now on
the management will put forth every
effort to make the coming fair the
banner one of all. They have the best
attractions lined up they ever had.
and with good weather the attend
ance record will be smashed to-
smithereens. -.

THE BUBBLE OF INITIATION.
Natural Reaction From The Check
ing of Export Trade.

Reports come from wholesale trade
centers of a considerable price de-
cline in food stuffs. This is the
natural reaction from the checking
of export trade. For nearly six years
Europe has been plunging deeper in
to debt, importing great quantities
OF supplies for which it was able to
pay only by signing notes, or offering
deprecated currency. The fall in ex-
change has at last compelled them to
face the spector Of bankruptcy. !. For
the first time they now fully realize
their position. They have at last
perceived that they can not go on
borrowing indefinitely, that they
must stop buying more goods than
they can pay for by the export Of
other goods.
The resultant check to United
States export trade will do this count
ry no harm. 1t will help production
catch up with consumption. Thus
it will tend to check profiteering and
the result must soon be apparent in
some reduction in prices to the con-
sumer.
II was significant that J. n.
Thomas. head of the English railway
labor unions, came out the other day
with a strong statement, showing
that greater production is the only
remedy for the worlds troubles.
Many of the labor leaders have not
seemed able to grasp that truth
They have seemed to think that some
great reserve of wealth could be
drawn from. for the doubling OF
wages at the same time that working
hours were cut down. The result
was the only possible one, an in
crease in living costs directly pro-
portionate to wage advances and the
reduction of production.
II the labor leaders of Europe are
able to see that production must in
crease to solve the worlds difficulties
the economic situation will soon show
Improvement. supply will equal de-
mand, competition will check prof.
teering, and extravagent prices in
America will be regulated by reason
