It has distributed nnmnhlet askine such questions as the following: "Are there schools in your city of which you should be ashamed ? "Do we compel our children to attend school in buildings where improper lighting ruins the eyes, where wrong seating twists the backs and poor sanitation promotes disease "Are the children herded into fire-traps ?" "Are they crowded into the streets for their playtimes?" Most cities would have to answer yes to at lea.st one of those questions, as respects some older school buildings. If the older schools of a city lack playgrounds, the same can usually be provided by opening up vacant lots for this purpose. There is no excuse "or a town that fails to provide adequate spaces as these when properly regulated are one of the great forces for keeping boys and girls on the right track. Poor lighting arrangements can usually be remedied without great cost. It is a serious matter to injure children s eyes. Ihe sun is flooding the world with its glorious illumination, given us without cost or charge, and all we have to do is to open win dows in our study old buildings if such there are, and let the sun shine in. " Fire hazards can be much reduced by teaching the children fire drills. Many cities have buildings that should be provided with more exits and fire escapes. The people should keep it in mind that the first purpose of schools is to bring up sound and healthy children, and that physical conditions must be favorable even if there ha3 to be some conservatism about other lines of expense. ' Further redactions were announced today by the United States Railroad Labor Board which will cut sixty million dollars yearly off the railway shop employes, and which will affect practically live hundred thousand men. This'reduction, amounting to seven and nine cents per hour, will give the railroad stockholders an opportunity to pocket over fifty-nine million dollars a year. Last week's wage reduction to railroad men, it is said, will make a saving to the railroad companies of fifty million dollars. It is un reasonable to believe that these reductions are in keeping with the present standard of living conditions throughout the country, and the assertion that they were made "with no consideration of human needs" does not savor of wholesome results to the railroad workers of the nation. Getting back to normalcy by such drastic Stction' Is likely to get the country in a turmoil which will com pletely upset the entire nation. There is such a thing as going too far in tho matter of wage reductions. Once a certain level is reached, the backbone of the nation's manpower would become so badly crippled that the working class would no longer form n part of tho solid bulwark that it now proudly maintains. It you want to take a man's independence away from him, there is no surer or better way than to deprive hi3 family from a just mid equitable livelihood at a living wage. This action will put the skids under the most prosperous nation in the world. o It was an interesting note in the daily news, when the dis patches Informed this country that J. P. Morgan, who is attend ing the international financial conference at Paris, came and went in an old taxicab that looked as if it were about ready to fall to pieces. Meanwhile the other delegates all used handsome automobiles. A similar indifference to style is often manifested by the men of fame and fortune. Meanwhile the clerks of a bank or ollice often dross better than the heads of their corporations, they defend seeming extravagances by saying that the man who has arrived can do as he likes, but while he is only starting he must make a good appearance. But some go so far in their ef fort to create an impression, as to give a splurgy effect. The man Who seems to be throwing around money does not impress busi ness people with the idea that he will be a good manager for other folk's interests.

LlKlitnlDB-riKls are designed for the name runmae ami a properly in- stalled aerlul, Instead of jeopardizing a ImlldlnK. la reully an excellent safe guard uml makes a splendid lightning rod. Lightning atrlkes a building or object when It U trvlnx to find a way to the earth and If the object struck Is a Kooil conductor of sufficient ca pacity It does no damage. For this reason, houses covered with wire net- Hug and climbing vim s are far safer than those which ore hare, and steel buildings, such as the New York sky scraper, steel bridges, elevated struc tures. Iron xmokestack and chimneys, Iron steamships and railway tracks are wldom Injured hy lightning al though frequently "struck"; the reason being that , the electricity passes through them freely without encoun tering resistance. On the other hand, wooden buildings, trees and humnn helngg are poor conductors and when dry ore ulinost non-conductoro of electricity, and when the lightning tries to follow such objects to ground, the resistance Is so great that serious damage Is done. It Is exactly like forc ing water through a pipe. If you have a powerful stream of water or a great volume of water and provide n pipe large enough for It to flow freely, the pipe will not be Injured, even If It Is very light and frail; whereas, If you attempted to force the same stream or same volume through a much smuller or clogged pipe, the pipe would be hurst or the water would overflow and flood the surroundings. Statistics prove that as far as aeriulsj nr concerned there Is no danger nnir during thunder storms are extremely rare. During un electrical storm tne Instruments cannot be used owing to the "static" or electricity In the uir and the .confusion of currents, waves and Inductuuce, nnd by Installing a lightning-switch or an air-gap there will be no danger to the premises. In fact, a properly Installed aerial does not affect the rute of Insurance and If Installed In nccordunce with the regulations of the local lire de partment you may be sure there Is not the least danger. The lire de partment records of New York City do not show a single Instance of con flagrations started by aerluls and lightning. The simplest and best safeguard for receiving aerials Is the air-gap shown In Klg. 10. This consists of two metal uttuehmenU separated by ubout one-eighth of an Inch A-H, one of which (A) Is attached to the lead-In wire (the wire to set being fastened to It also) while the other (B) Is con nected by a wire to the ground di rect. This gap Is mounted In much the same manner as a llghtnlng- swlteh, Fig. 17 (on a window sill or other convenient spot), in which A shows connections to aerial, H to re ceiver and C to ground connection. When the station is not In use. or during thunder storms, the handle D Is thrown from A to O, this cutting off all connection between the lead-in wire nnd the Instruments and connect ing the nerfnl directly with the ground. Aerials for sending or transmission stations ore very different from those used for receiving only nnd should be of several wires. The most efficient Is probably the "cage" type shown In Fig. 18, but any of the others Illustra ted in Figs. 10, 20 and 21 will answer. These should, of course, be fully In sulated nnd the various methods of doing this are well shown In the figures and require no explanation. To Install sending stations a license Is required, whereas to receive, no license Is needed. V.XTK1, It-UIS A.l I'.ILUKS (Ry County Agent II. W.

Salvation Army "crusader," spoke three times at the local army bar racks Sunday in connection with his evangelistic "siege" here. His sub ject Sunday was "Rest." He took his text from the words of Christ, "Come unto me all ye that labor and I will give you rest." "The nature of the rest here im plied," the colonel said, "is not rest of body or rest of mind, but soul rest. Rest for the man or woman who Is burdened with a troubled conscience. Best for the person whose wrong liv ing has given him a heavy heart. "Wlcn Israel looked back over the Red sea after their miraculous deliv erance from Egypt, the llihle tells us that 'they rested.' Hut that was rest of body nnd mind only. God will give this soul-rest to those who come unto Him." The meetings yesterday were well attended according to Captain Clar ence Ford, local officer in charge. The The daily va. atlon Ilible school at i captain states that extra seating fa- the I'aptlst diiirch started yester day morning with great enthusiasm.
