Two Boys Get Rides Most OF
The Way, They Find

Hiking is cheap and speedy now
days, according to Peter Gevaart
and Clarence Timm, two Milwaukee
youths about 10 years of age, who
stopped at the Bismarck tourist
camp last night.
The boys left Milwaukee, Wiscon-
sin, June is, and arrived in Bis
marck, June TO- making remarkably
fast time. They walked part of the
way, but made speed because most
of the way they rode in tourists

at night in tourist camps.
The boys left here this morning,
going on toward Harlowtown, Mon

SENATOR AND DOCTOR CLASH ON
FASHIONABLE GOLF CLUB COURSE

The clash was brief and in it's
course, DR.. Mitchell was struck once
and fell to the ground.
Those who took the part of Scpator
Robinson said the trouble occurred
after the Mitchell party had been
held up from coming through the
green on the 18th hole, on which the
senatorial foursome was playing. At
that time Senator Walsh was search
ing for a lost ball. A member of the
Mitchell party, it was said, called for
permission to pass through, and it
was granted. On the way to the next
tee, it was added, some sharp words
were passed on the subject of golf
etiquette.
When the 18th tee was reached, the
feeling had progressed to such an
extent that the two hen came to
blows.

For the past week the traffic men

sixteen years. Several of the youth
full drivers have been informed that
they will have to abandon the wheel

On the other hand there are some

if the law is good for one 1t should be
applied generally. 1t is undoubtedly
one of the safety first precautions
and as it is the state law can be en-
forced.
At the same time there is many a

the whole of the highway, glares the
oncoming car with binding lights
takes more than his share of the
road and otherwise deals in infrac-
tions of the law and rights to a de-
gree where he is many times more
danger than the boy under sixteen
The traffic men can go as far as they
like In safety first and while round
ing up the youthful drivers few ex-
amples of adults will be appreciated.

MOTOR CAR SERVICE
WILL PROBABLY REMAIN

Last week the members of the
chamber of commerce had been ad-
yised that the Southern Pacific has
contemplated removing the motor
car service running into and out of
this city. AS a result the matter
was taken up with the public service
commission at Carson and also the
chamber of commerce at Reno.
Replies to the inquiry from both
places are to the effect that the
Southern Pacific has made no dec
laration of such diseontinuance of
taken 1t is necessary to apply to the
state commission for the alteration.
At the same time the local cham
ber went on record as against the
granting of an auto passenger SER
vice to Mr.. Dewey of Reno who
asked for a permit to run a passen-
ger service over the highway be-
tween the two cities The county
commissioners to date have not
granted any such franchise to Mr..
Dewey
The people of this city and COM
munity realize that the motor car
service as now running into this city
makes one of the best passenger and
mail services rendered to any city
in Nevada. It is realized that a dis
continuance would work a hardship
on the people and that there is no
necessity of auto transportation with
this very perfect service being rem.
dered by the rail people.

The average of fourteen years and
eight months, required, is the STAN
dard attained by the thousands and
thousands of pupils tested by the
makers of the test and so adopted by
them as the standard for the average
eighth grade pupil of the United

great satisfaction to find that the
eighth grade Of the Consolidated "B"
school averages better than fifteen
years and five months or moro than
nine months above the average OF
the pupils of the United States.
One of the outstanding features
of the results is that in arithmetic.
The Consolidated "B" pupils aver
aged sixteen years or one year and
four months above the average re-
quired. The other subjects averaged
almost at the same age-between
fifteen years and three months and
