vehicles. It is the existence Of such a
circumstance hat brings distress to
both autoist and parent, and the elm
ination of the risk through the strict
enforcement of present legislation is
the solution. Mrs. Healy believes. The
autoist is too often blamed when &C
ctdents occur in the noted,
according to Mrs. Healy, who is con-
WINGED that the responsibility Of avoid
ing these occurrences rests nearly
wholly with the parents. Children
should be taught to play in the home
yard, and If need be, strenuous meth
DDS should be applied to keep them
there, is the point which Mrs. Healy
strongly emphasizes.
Another ordinance that is too often
disregarded by motorists is that which
forbids keeping the cut-out open in
the vicinity OF hospitals and residence
districts. Mrs. Healy cited an instance
where the use of the cut-out in the
hospital zone prolonged to a consider
able extent the period Of illness of one
of the patients in the hospital. Again,
there are often sick persons in resi-
dences, and the effect Of the noise and
offender may realize.
1T is my opinion, then" Mrs. Hearty
concluded" that If parents were made
to understand their responsibility in
the matter Of keeping their children
off the streets, and il the legislation
prohibiting the use of the cut-out were
put into stricter effect, the result
would be doubly beneficial"

PRODUCTION
{ IS BEING TRIED
in WEST AFRICA

Cairo, Egypt-steady progress is
| being made in the establishment of
1.-THE Niger River Valley cotton expert
iment station, located in West Africa.
The work is being done under the
auspices of the French colonial au-
.Fthorities Of Occidental Africa, who
|, have selected DR.. Herbert n. Forbes,
/ former dean Of the College of Agri-
culture of Arizona, to report on the
proposed irrigation project.
\! The French Consortium committee
has allotted the money for the sta
|,tion, and definite installations will be
begun as soon as the credits are in
/ hand.
Cotton seed and a selection Of cot
ton plants have been sent to the sta
ton from the United States and
Egypt. Cultivated lands in the vi
ctntty Of Kulikoro Inc El-Ouabadji,
on the Niger above Timbuktu and
bordering on French Senegal, are to
isbe used for the experimental work.
1.-The first cultures will give returns
during the winter Of 1929. These
Will be used to secure a sufficient
stock Of pure cotton seed for the
season.
The irrigation work contemplates
ultimately an irrigation dam similar
TO the Assouan dam on the Nile.
EaaTemporaryf pumping stations to care
for the 1924 crop already have
been installed. Every means Of pre-
venting cotton plant diseases and
worm tnvadons will be adopted.

While he may not always be able to

ness and intelligence which stand him
in good stead: A practical common

American relief administration
workers have much to do with the
Russian peasant in their various ac-
tivities in these lands. and have come
to regard him with respect. Gns
How is it," one of the Russian in
terpreters was asked, that although
these peasants cannot read and write

PASTORS SUMMER
SCHOOL COURSE TO
OPEN HERE, AUG. {

Announcement has been made that
a conference summer school for min
listers will be held at Wesley college
betweenA August 8 and August rs.
President E. P. Robertson of Wesley
college has made public this jan
nouncement to correct certain errors
in dates which appeared in a church
paper which %circulates in the state.
The summer school is attractlnEan-
terest among Methodist pastors
throughout the state, Mr.. Robertson
said, and it is expected that a large
number of ministers will be in attend
ance. The summer school is intended
to equip the pastors for their profess
sional work by bringing together lead
ers in religious thought and in allied
fields of human intellect. The pas
tors will enjoy a survey Of present
day science as related to religious
thought and church work.
The curse provides for paying
travelling expenses of pastors and one
half the cost of meals. The ministers
will be under the regular college reg
%ulations. for class and lecture periods
as well as for reoration and meals.
