ROADS
sTANDARDIzE BRIDGE DESIGN
ration in Specifications That Now
Exist in Building.

prepared by the United states Department
of Agrculture)
Greater standardization of practice
In the design and construction of high
way bridges is urged by the bureau of
public roads of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. 1t Is be-
lieved that there is no sound reason
for the amount Of variation in specifi-
cations that now exists and that it
results in greater cost Of bridges. State
officials take the same view as the bu
reau and a committee composed Of
bridge engineers has been appointed
by the American Association of State
Highway Officials to consider the mat
ter. manual of Practice" is being
prepared. which will represent the
best thought on the subject and which
1t is believed will be accepted by all
the state highway departments. Not
only will the adoption of such man
ual lead to the building of bridges of
good design, but it will also make pos
sible saving in money, as bridge
companies will not be called upon to
meet so much variation in design. :

JAP CANNOT BECOME AN
AMERICAN CITIZEN

Washington, Nov. 13.-Japanese can
not be naturalized in the United States
and cannot become citizens of the
country, the supreme court decided to-
day in its first construction of the
federal status bearing on this subject
This decision was handed down in
the case of Takao Ozawa, who in 1914
applied for citizenship in Hawaii. The
court stated that this decision did
"not imply any suggestion of individ-
ual unworthiness or racial inferiority."
In an exhaustive analysis of the his
tory of legislation the court held that
section 216a, authorizing naturalaa-
tion of "free white persons' was in
full force and that under it japanese
could not obtain citizenship in this
country.

BRIDGES ON IMPROVED ROADS
Now Being Constructed. Say
Engineers.

Few highway bridges with width
of roadway less than 18 feet are now
being constructed on improved roads.
according to engineers of the bureau
of public roads of the United States
Department of Agriculture. In the
past some IL feet and good many of
16-foot width have been constructed
In an effort to economize, but 1t has
proved shortslghted economy. Only
one line of traffic can pass over IL.
foot roadway, and 1G feet of width
will not accommodate two lines in
safety. Many of the states, such as
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio and
Massachusetts, have found 1t advisable
In replacing old bridges on important
roads to make them wide enough to
accommodate three and four lines Of
traffic.

SCHOOLS ARE GOOD
SHOULD Be BETTER

Superintendent Blaine says the teach
ers from this city and county who at
tended the district teachers associa-
ton at Grand Junction last week were
greatly benefited by the session, as
they received much of real value to
them in their school work.
Perhaps the outstanding treat of the
session came in the address of Cover
nor Harding of Iowa, nationally
known educator, who has many prac-
teal ideas on the subject of an edu-
Gated citizenry.
"The public Schools" he said,
Equipped and manned as they are,
hold the future of the state and the
nation in their control, for what the
boys and girls are being taught today
the state and nation will be doing in n
few years. The ideals of citizenship
and the attitude that these boys and
girls will have toward life are the ideals
and the attitude which the teaching
force of the state has toward life at
the present time.
"Without fault finding or criticism,
I declare that the schools of the nation
can be improved and better adapted to
the needs of the boys and the girls.
The backward schools can be brought
up to the standard we now have. Edu-
cation should be broad enough to train
the youth for the place which he or she
is to occupy in life, and since we ex-
pect all to occupy an important place,
it is but fitting that the least child be
given the best opportunity that the
public knows about.
IA high school education or its
equivalent is the least that the state
should be satisfied with for every boy
and every girl of the state.'

There was very poor attendance at

esting demonstration on pruning. The
motion picture films shown were "Po-
tatoes Early and Late" and gu. s.
Bird Refuges,' and after the pictures
G. w. Hoppe gave an illustrated talk
on marketing potatoes, which was very
instructive. In the evening the mo-
tion pictures were shown again, and
the school boys band, under the di-
rection of Miss Mamie Thomas, fur
nished music d., P. McCann opened
the Friday afternoon session with a
talk on dairying. He advised all farm
ers in this vicinity to take up dairy
ing, and showed that the production
of butterfat removes the least sol fer
tility of anything farmer can sell.
Misses Della Kettle and Florence
Oiler of Pear Park demonstrated the
making of silk and organdy flowers.
The films shown were "Dairy Stock -

STEAMBOAT BEATS
GLENWooD- SCORE 1877

Glenwood makes lone touchdown in
first half.
On a field of ice and snow, with q
light snow falling throughout the en-
tire game, the Glenwood team went
down to defeat before the Steamboat
football team last Saturday, IS to 7.
The only score of the game was
made when Demaestri intercepted a
pass on Steamboat IS twenty yard line
and ran the length of the field for
touchdown with his opponents close
behind him.
AS the field was covered with ice
and snow, the players were drenched
after the first few downs. Everything
was in excellent condition for a skat-
ing party, but football was almost out
of the question, with the cold and wet.
During the first quarter Glenwood
was outplaying Steamboat, but was
unable to gain ground on account of
the slick field and Steamboats, sur
plus weight.
At the first of the second quarter
Glenwood scored. During the rest of
the second quarter the teams held each
other near the center of the field.
At the beginning of the second Pc
riod Steamboat gained from their ten
yard line by short passes and line
bucks, and then from there Larson
pushed the ball over by center rush
Glenwood weakened and the rest of
the third quarter was finished by
short punts.
The last quarter both teams played
hard, but Glenwood lacked the endur-
ance to stay with them and Steamboat
made two touchdows finishing the
game in their favor.
The student body and the American
Legion showed Glenwood a good time
so it is up to Glenwood now to show
them just as good a time when they
return the visit.

There are lots of folks who spread 1t,
And they spread 1t every day;
1t makes up their converse ton.
They can talk no other way.
Feller's always glad to see 'em.
You can see 'em for a block;
And their little bunch of salve is
Always better than a knock.
Course, 'taint always that they mean II
But it sounds good just the same.
And 1t makes you sort of like 'em,
When they come and boost your game
Even though you know they're lynn.
And their talk cannot be true,
You somehow can't help but feel they
Take an interest In you.
They have got the hammer throwers
Beaten by good long mile.
With their pleasant conversation
And appreciatin' smile.
Now, 1t doesn't cost a penny
To pass out a word that's kind,
And 1t always seems to somehow
Soothe the other fellows mind.
Amt nobody that is perfect,
Or that amt made no mistake,
And there's surely consolation
In hearty old handshake
1t has caused a lot of comfort,
1t has eased lot of woe,
And the optimistic feller
Is the man you want to know.
In this world of disappointments.
It's a blessing that we have
Quite lot of genial fellers
Who know how to spread the "salve.'

USE OF FORESTS BY TOURISTS

1t is interest ng to note the large
number of tourists who enter the for

Others who take advantage of the
forests are persons who hike or take
pack trips from the various resorts.
These number 100. On Homestake
camp alone, near Red Cliff, $50 tour
lists were registered from twenty-eight
states and three foreign countries. This
