MatteS Was Discussed Before
The kiwanis Club At Noon
day Meal

This week is being generally OBJ
served throughout the country as
National Education Week" Various
clubs and schools in practically every
part of the nation are this week hold
ing meetings in order to acquaint the
public with the present educational
system of the country.
Always ready to join with the OBJ
servance of matters of an educational
nature, The greater part OF the meet
ing at the Kiwanis club today was
given over to a splendid talk by r. e.
Puckett, principal OF the Mankato
high school, who gave the members
some valuable information regarding
the educational system of the country.
In his remarks Mr.. Puckett gave
some statistics which showed that .he
country was sadly in need OF trained
teachers. At the present time there
is big shortage Of teachers who nave
had the proper school training and
that there were too many instructors
without college training.
In line with the remarks made by
Mr.. Puckett, l. N. Tompkins spoke
briefly regarding the need OF more
teachers who have had college train
ing. Mr.. Tompkins attended an edu-
catiOnal conference in the twin cities
on Monday at which time it was
teachers in Minnesota had less than
high school education.
The Kiwanis club today had the
pleasure Of entertaining number OF
visiting Kiwanians among whom were
seven or eight doctors from the Roch-
ester Organization. DR.. Adson, pres
ident of the Rochester club, occupied
a place at the officers table and gave
a brief talk on "Kiwanis."
The Kwanis club as body went
on record as favoring the placing of
Mankato sign posts on the ways
and highways in Mankatos trade ter
ritory., The proposition was ably pre-
sented to the club by Q. w. Fisher of
the Civic and Commerce association,
who informed the members that
present plans were to place from 800
to 500 of these "Mankato" Signs over
the territory. A rising vote OF the
members of the club showed the
speaker that the Kiwanis members
were thoroughly in favor of advertis-
ing Mankato as 1t should be done.
M. D.. Fritz, chairman OF the mem
bership committee, had splendid in
PRODUCTION talk in presenting to the
club Kiwanian M. H. Chesbrough, a
new member of the Kiwanis club. Mr.
Ches brough Is the present mnager OF
the Standard Oil company, having
succeeded Harry Monson, who has al
ready departed for Des Moines, Iowa,
to enter into his new duties with the
Standard Oil company in that city.

washington. December 6. Seventy
five million dolla.. became available
as federal aid for road ooA.tr,,cti0n
In the various states under the Fed-
eral Highway Act, recently signed
by President Harding. In addition.
$15, 100000 was appropriated for ma

for the Improvement Of national for
est roads $5,o00.o00 was made avail
able for the fiscal year ending June
80, 1922. and 81, 600, 900 Tor the fol-
lowing fiscal year.
The federal highway act In q gen
eral way resembles the federal aid
act OF 1875, but contains several new
features. Administration of the act
by the secretary Of agriculture, and
under him the bureau Of public roads
remains unchanged.
Apportionment Of tho fund to the
states is almost the same as IN the
previous act, the fund being divided
into three parts one part apportion-
cording to area and the third accord
ing to mileage Of rural and star mail
routes. A new feature Is the stipue
lation that no state shah receive less
than one fifth Of one per cent of the
total fund which amounts to $3SS, Gas.
This stipulation wiz Increase the
amount received by four Of the small
ler states, Delaware, New Hampshire
Rhode Island and Vermont
Considerable Changes Made

which state may use It's allotment.
Each state must select a connected
road system not exceeding seven per
cent OF its road mileaSe fpr Improve
ment With federal aid. This system
viii be divided into two classes, one
of which win be known as interstate
highways and the other as inter
county highways The Interstate
highways must not exceed three
sevenths of the system selected: on
them not more than 50 per cent of
the states allotment can be spent
without the joint approval of the
secretary Of agriculture and the state
highway department The inter-
county highways, which consist of
the remainder OF the system selected
will receive the remainder of fsg
states allotment.
Except in states where more than
per cent OF the area Is uaappro-
psiated p1blie land. the amount Of
federal aid received on any project
must not exceed 80 per cent of the
estimated cost. rA.stes where more
than per cent of. the area is unap-
propriated public land-tha- Sc Der

amount equal to one half the per

What the new approximation win
mean TO the country can be Judged
by the use to which the $eT5, ,0O0, 600
previously appropriated has been put
according to officials OF the United
States Department OF Agriculture.
Practically $500, ,000, 600 sof that money
has been put to work In projects
which are either entirely completed
or now under construction. To match
this amount the states have aDpfo-
