LORY AND NORLIN URGE

Presidents Of Two State Educational

ton Endangers Human and Animal
Life Of State.

Boulder, Colo, Oct 25:-Declar-
ing that Amendment No. 5, to be
voted on Nov Z, would II passed Sc
riously endanger the human and an
imal life OF the state. DIR. Chas. A.
Lory, president Of the State Agricul-
tural College, and DR.. George Norlin.
president OF the State University,
have issued an official statement to
the people OF the state OF Colorado,
urging them to vote against the
measure.
The statement fellows:

RADIO:
THE so-called 'anti-vivisection
bill-No. Of the initiated laws
which are to be voted On election
days a measure which should
concern every citizen OF Colorado.
Although ii is plausibly worded
so as to appeal TO our humanitarian
instincts. 1t really carries menace
to our efforts to improve human
well-being. 1t implies that expert
ments are now being conducted on
the persons Of children-an impli-
cation which is, Of course, absolute
ly false. By the use Of the term
''yivisection" and by its wording in
general II suggests picture Of ami
mails now being subjected to cruel
torture, whereas such operations az
are conducted in animal surgery are
performed with as great precautions
against inficting pain as are opera
tions made upon human beings. It
ignores the fact that most animal
experimentation is in the nature OF
inoculation and Is made upon such
animals as rats and guinea pigs in
order to discover vaecines and anti
toxins which will prevent and cure
disease.
Such experimentation has al.
ready resulted in the control OF such
dread enemies OF humanity ~ small.
pox. tuberculosis, diphtheria. ty-
phoid fever, hydrophobia. etc., and
the ravages Of such plaques as chol.
era and backlog among animals.

FAIRY TALES COME TRUE.

He tortieth anniversary Of the electric light
was celebrated by.a dinner party to Mr.. Ed.
son in New York this week. 1t has been forty
years since the electric light flashed Its first
sparkle against the sedate lamp lighted dusk of the
American twilight
Hundreds Of persons today recall the street lamps
that used to cast their faint rays to direct the 81
OF those abroad after nghtfal In those days the
night life OF a city was not very extensive There
would be distinct subduing OF gaity on Broad
way today II the thousands OF brilliant el-rtric
lights we're to be put out of commission aud in
their places we're installed the oil lamp or the
gas burner. There is something exherating, some.
thing insplrational about much radiant light
Laughter comes freely, the heart and spirit lift,
i, the WHOLE being beams under the influence OF the
sparkling lights Mr., Edison, toiing away over his
invention, has by the gift OF the electric light
driven away the blues, flooded the world with mid
night sunshine, and given to prosaic city streets
dazzling beauty of color and glow that aim st
makes fairyland an earthly reality.
Endless startling and marvellous effects have
been produced in electrical lighting since the
first modest bulb made its bow. The advertising
of today flashing its importunement against the
stars, the magic of theatrical lighting effect, the
searchlight, all are the wonderful towering of the
that simple light. AT the touch of button the
entire house is softly lighted at the turning Of
lever an entire city leaps of the evening gloom
and in wonderful tracery, towers and battlements
rise as by command of magician.
And there has been magician truly at work,
for no wonder worker In a story book ever per-
formed half the marvellous things It has fallen To
Edison to do He is in reality the magician of
the age.

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR

CAROLINA, Sept. 1s.-(Edltor
The West Virginian,) Dear Sir:
Many interesting facts are being
brought to light in regard to the
Sunday schools throughout our
county. 1t is desirable that more
publicity and more attention be
given this vitality important
branch Of our religious work.
The Marion County Sunday
school Association will hold It's
annual meeting in Fairmont DC.
tober 8 and s and the associations
of the various districts Of the
county have held, or Will have
held before that date, district
meetings. Reports will then be
made up showing the comparative
standing Of each school and dis
trict in the county.
Uniformity OF work is arrived at
by means OF the international
Sunday school chart. Various dis.
trlct or county officers visit the
schools Of the county and explain
these charts SO that each school
may know just where 1t stands.
Any Sunday school meeting with
all the requirements Of the stand
ard attains one hundred points
and becomes a front line school.
Almost a month remains before
the county convention is held and
every school In the county Is urg-
ed to do its best to meet the
standard and to have report In
the hands of the district or county
secretary before that time. The
requirements Of the international

BRIDGES FREED FROM TOLL.

AXIrTHIN ninety days all toll bridges between
wv West Virginia and Maryland will be freed
rom toll leyes. This means that the bridges
spanning the Potomac at Shepherdstown, at
Harpers Ferry, Willlamsport and Hancock will be-
tree those who cross without toll assessment.
Bonds have been issued by both Maryland aud
Vest Virginia to purchase these bridges from ths
companies who own them, and for the first time in
tstl history traffic is free to go and come at will
without being held up by the toll collector.
The public will be very glad to be freed from
the paying Of toll. 1t is always great nuisance
10 those living near these bridges to be halted ~
toll in their frequent crossings, say nothing
OF thea actual outlay OF money which must amount
to aHconsiderabe sum as time rolled around
Strangers, too, have grown increasingly impatte It
of paying toll, though the public used to take toll
payments as matter of course On the roads
and the bridges 1t was the customary thing, and
the toll houses with their toll gates were tami-
arfeature of every highway. But the custom has
long since passed out in most sections The states
have taken over the highway and they main
.ed by taxation instead of direct toll assessment.
Tbe people probably pay more than they used TO
pay for the upkeep Of the roads but the tax Is
evenly distributed and all pay alike. Impatient
drivers will not have to stop their machines, dig
down in their pockets for dimes and nickels and
tnwardly fume at the delay. on these connecting
bridges between West Virginia and Maryland after
The lapse Of few weeks now. 1t will remove an
annoyance that the public will be glad to see takel
away.

quite probable that the field of sports Is not going
