MARKERS BEING PUT UP
ON LINCOLN HIGHWAY



Detroit, Mich, Aug. 12.-Before
next winter comes enameled steel
markers Will have been placed at
every confusing turn and cross
roads on the Lincoln highway from
New York to San Francisco. max
ing what is said to be the longest
highway in the world with such
guide marks, according to an
nouncement from headquarters OF
the Lincoln Highway association
here
The road from Omaha to San
Francisco already has such mark
ers and work of marking the high
way from New York to Omaha now
is in progress. The task should be
completed some time in November,
it is reported.
The Lincoln highway is 3,223
miles long. 1t passes through Phil
adelphia, Pittsburgh, Canton, o..
Fort Wayne and South Bend. Ind,
Clinton, Ia. omaha. salt Lake City,
and Carson City, New, among other
points,
The highway never has been per-
manently marked between New
oYrk and omaha Travellers hith-
erto have been guided by painted
markers stenciled on telegraph and
telephone poles, but this method
was found to be inadequate, as
painted guidance was quickly OBJ
liberated.
Expense of marking the road from
New York to Omaha is estimated
at $4,000.
The signs are carried on motor
trucks. Two University of Michi'
gan students arS going over the
road and placing the markers.

the Philippine islands. The expendi-
ture of these funds covers a period ex-
tending till the year 1923; so that by
that time there will be teachers, build
ings, books and equipment for all the
children of school age DESTROYS of hav-
ing elementary education. 1t is be-
lieved that the increase in the APP
preparation will double the number OF
pupils in the schools and will increase
the salaries Of municipal teachers at
least 80 per cent. How far-reaching
the effects of this measure you'd be,
is as yet unknown. Certainly 1t makes
education universal and free in the
fullest sense. ae
By virtue of the Jones law the bu-
reau of non-C Christian tribes was ere
ated. It's object is to foster in rapid
and thorough manner the material,
moral, economic, social and political
development Of the people of the is
lands who are non-Christian.
The first step taken in pursuance
of this policy was the establishment
and extension of public schools in all
the non-C Christian territory. There is
today an average daily attendance Of
1914 pupils among the non-Christian
people. In the so-called Mountain
province and in the province of Nueva
Vizcaya, where the mountain peoples
are, there are 31S Filipino teachers.
In the department of Mindanao and
Sulu there are 1888.
The money expended in those re-
gions comes from the resources Of the
Philippine government-from the
pockets of the 100000 Christian
Fiiipinos. The Christian population
is approaching the non-Christian with
the kindliest of spirit. The response
to that approach is splendidly cordial.
English the Language.
The national university of the is
lands is called the University of the
Philippines. 1t is financed by the
state. 1t gives courses in arts. educa-
ton, medicine and surgery, pharmacy,
agriculture, veterinary science, for
estry, engineering, law, commerce and
music. The number of students is
about 300. 1t has graduated about
100 since it's establishment in 1907.
The medium of instruction is English;
the curriculum is patterned after that
of the American universities; and the
text books used ere English. Many
of it's graduates are at present occupy
ing responsible positions in the govern
ment, from the legislature down.
Many more are in the universities of
America pursuing advanced studies,
either as government students or
through their own efforts.
The system of education in existence
in the Philippines is bound to stay.
The English language will soon be
the official language of the islands. 1t
is now the common medium of COM
munication among the islanders who
still speak their dialects. 1t is fast
supplanting the Spanish as the ma
tional language. Business between the
central government and most Of the
provinces and municipalities is al
ready conducted in English. BY legis
lative provision, English will be the
language used IT, the courts from
1920 on.
