Electricity, by replacing steam health of those attending the public schools or the general health of the Territory. That is a matter for those upon whom rests the responsibility and the experts and scientists they consult.| However, the responsibility in the premises very clearly lies in the Legislature to take such action as may be proved to-be needful. That the Legislature has the potver to pass such reasonable legislation as may be necessary there is no doubt, and the prin- ciple behind such legislation is sound. While Representative Winn's bill may be too drastic for all we know, and it may be precisely the right thing, the purpose of Mr. Winn to guard the health of the youngsters who attend the school is wholly praiseworthy and deserving of the most serious consideration. Experience has shown that those of the medical profession are, generally speaking, high-minded and public spirited men and women, They are as in- telligent, generally speaking, as those in any other profession. Their work largely concerns the health of the puplic and their objective is to keep people well. They are as conscientious in their efforts to prevent ills as they are to cure them. It is rea- sonable to suppose that they, generally speaking again, know what is best to prevent contagion or the spread in any way of disease. Whenever there is agfeement, therefore, among the physicians of the country, the sensible layman will accept their advice, and do the things they urge for the common good. , mendous further the productivity each worker the strong men. is still true. tries, 60 hours.

Big men, big industry and big town people are looking to the small- ¢ er cities as they never looked before. You may call it trend of the times if you like, but whatever you call it, it is one big grand opportunity for those who are wise enough to see it to do something to get ready for it. Leading publications everywhere are printing special articles on it and it is more and more a subject of conversation wherever big men get together publicly or in private conference. In a recent issue of The American Magazine, Henry Ford said: “Is it efficient for business to pay high land prices and high taxes in con- gested cities where its workers must pay exorbitant rents? By mov- ing out, business could get lower land prices, lower takes and lower rents—and far better living conditions for its people. A bulletin recently issued by the American Highway Educational Bureau says: “Dependable all-weather transportation has already begun to work wonders in the decentralization of manufacturing, with the re- sult that more diversified forms of employment are being brought to the country.” This development, like many changes in these whirligig days, has been going on so quietly and steadily as to pass almost un- noticed. It has come to be a common remark among motorists upon entering an unfamiliar town, to ask, “What do they make here?” It 1s no longer enough to say that it is an agricultural town or an edu- cational center, for surely they must be making some product or an- other which the world at large uses. “It is often shid, and with some degree of truth, the bulletin admits, that the drift of population from farm to city remains unchecked, but the facts are that this drift is stopping short of the larger cities and has begun to build up the towns and villages that lie so close to and form such an integral part of the open country.” The lesson to be learned is that highway transportation is a going business and still greater returns will come from further improvement. It will not be economy to let down in highway extension programs be- cause our state systems are so well under way. There are the main arteries, which, if widened—and they will be—hold even greater possi- bilities as trade channels. Get ready—you never know when a scout for a big man or a big business will be among you. He may be in your town now. He will not come among you with blare of trumpets; his report will not be based on your individual likableness, or good fellowship of the few shining lights, but on your town as it is—Not as you believe it to be, if you have ever thought of it at all Big men are not interested in Hickville or Hickvilleites. They be- lieve as they have a right to believe, that the automobiles and good roads, radio, telephone and free mail delivery, should have, by now, taken the Hick out of Hickville. If it hasn't, if such things have not awakened in the minds of towns the possibilities in the new order of things, then some other town is where they must investigate.

Mr. Kiloh expected to find the car a total wreck, but as the rock was removed the car was found to be damaged but little. As the debris was cleared one or two windows were found to be broken and the front part of the "ar was somewhat caved in from he heavy rock striking and burying it. Mr. Kiloh's son was driving at he time of the slide, and only es- saped from being buried with the car by jumping and running. The slide carried the car over the road wnd covered it with tons of snow and rocks. Old papers at tne Emp're.
