Next morning Jimmy was awak

"Gallatin," roared Jimmy, "where:

Hastily slipping on his trousers hi

WEIRD SIGNALS SAID

some radio experts said came from

Eiffil tower, which is the most power

signals and Radio engineers are
agreed that it was not static ano
that it was on a wave length d
$4,000 meters. No station in the

come in regular beat wave and are
not anything that has ever been

NORMAL SCHOOL DEFICIENCY
An Explanation for the Edification
Of the ~Home Folks

The report OF dehclency IN the
Normal School funds, due to over
drafts during the biennial period just
closed, came as a shock to good
friends of the school, and should be
explained if any explanation is avail
able, This is the more true since
the report of the Auditor and Public
Examiner cites two or three specific
instances of alleged extravaganza
and mismanagement.
Among the charges of the Public
Examiner is the statement that the
College Cafeteria. run for the benefit
of students and teachers, shows a
loss of s5,17O.54 for the past year
This is not true The examiners did
not secure the facts. They ignored
the school ledger which shows the
cross charges from the expenditures
of the Cafeteria for the benefit of
other departments. For example,
janitors, workers in the Dormitory,
night watchmen, and boiler care
takers are paid only little in cash
and the rest in meal tickets on the
Cafeteria. The amount of these
tickets should have been accredited
to the Cafeteria. but was not so
counted by the examiners. 1t really
amounts to enough DUE THE CAFE
TERRA from other funds to more
than cover the alleged deficit.
This, in addition to the fact that
$4,000 90 by way of improvements
and permanent equipment have gone
into the Cafeteria, enables that in
stitution to show a good profit rather
than deficit. The school is not and
has not been giving away food to the
teachers and students.
A startling charge is that the sum-
mer school of last year showed a
LOSS of $4,000. This is less than
half truth because the summer
school salary budget, which is kept
separate by the Gunnison school.
includes part of the regular or an
nual salary of the regular faculty;
that is, instead of showing only the
extra charges for additional summer
school faculty and lecturers, it shows
one-sixth of the regular annual sal
ary Of the regular teachers. The al
lodged loss, therefore, from the sum-
mer school, should have been greatly
reduced in the report of the examin-
ers. if mentioned at all.
As matter of fact, large pro-
portion of the Gunnison summer stu
dents are girls just out of high
school who have not yet taught at
all, but who are trying to get ready
to teach. If they did not attend
summer school. they would go out
and experiment as they pleased upon
the children of the people. ANY rea-
sonable man will admit that money
expended in making these girls anv
less dangerous as teachers is money
well spent.
A third startling assertion is that
the athletics of the school cost the
state S4.794.S9 But this amount in
cludes the salary of the director of
physical training. as well as the cost
