ledge pumped into them.
Many of the colleges are being al
most swamped by the number of ap-
plications they have had for the past
year or two. Where formerly anyone
who desired could enter these insti-
tutions, now these places pick and
choose between students, and the un-
desirables have to go to less known
places.
Some colleges now require letters
of application from those desiring en-
trance, and from the statements of
purpose therein contained it besides
whether the students want to come
and learn or are merely being rail-
roaded throug by parents. The lat
ter class are turned down.
There are many students who at
tend educational institutions of their
own free will, because they believe
that in some MYSTERIOUS way educa-
ton pays. But they drag their weary
feet to the class room with indiffer-
ence, and they study just enough to
throug tutoring that will help them
coach up for their exams" in short
period and avoid any real work for
the bulk of the year, they quickly
adopt these expedients.
These young people are not giving
their parents and the community q
square deal. Their parents sacrifice
and toll to give the students these ad-
vantages. The community provides
these facilities at great cost, whether
these institutions are supported from
public funds or are the gift of phil
anthropists. If the young people are
slack in making the best of these op-
portunities. they make poor return
for generosity shown them. They are
throwing away chances that more am
bilious students ought to have in their
place.

Sidney has good team and came to
Julesburg Saturday with twenty-four
men. They were mostly off tackle
plays and end runs during the game,
which brought their fast back field
into play.
Sidney featured in team work as a
whole. Their back field was faster
than Julesburg's. Sidney fumbled
considerably during the game and
was weak on punting and forward
passing.
Julesburg out punted and out pass
ed Sidney and did not tumble as much.
The Julesburg boys had poor inter-
ference and could not gain. Our team
on the defense did some good tack
ling and most of the credit goes to the
line.

A RECORD OF EFFICIENCY

Many people who from partisan mo-
tives are assailing the Harding admin
istration, should notice what the Ma
tional Civil Service Reform league
says about its record for efficiency in
handling the consular and diplomatic
service. A special committee in this
organization has been examining the
recent government policy in this field
in which in the past there has been 30
much incompetence.
Our business men demand high class
appointments to the consular service,
so that when they try to get trade for
American factories, they shall obtain
real assistance from this government
service. In past years many hack po-
liticans were appointed to these jobs,
who lacked the intelligence and initi-
ative to render any important service
to American business.
Also the diplomatic service has been
distinctly inferior in the past, owing
to the tendency to make appointments
for political and personal motives.
The United States threfore has been
put to disadvantage in its dealings
with foreign powers.
The Civil Service Reform league
committees report would indicate that
the consular service under Mr.. Hard
ing is better than ever before. "Pro-
motions in the SERVICE" it says, shave
been based more strictly than ever be-
fore upon an impartial determination
of the relative efficiency of the Off
GERS in the service" In appointing
ambassadors, also it would seem from
this report that more regard is being
paid to merit and less to politics.
Here is q progressive step that will
count tremendously in promoting
trade and helpful foreign relations.
Probably one reason why for
eign trade has held up well while
foreign trade has held up well while
Europe is 50 depressed, is that we are
sending more practical men than
formerly to represent US in the foreign
field. The special gains made under
the Harding administration are what
one might expect when able business
men are placed in power.
