Dept Complete Rules 1911
The attention of those interest
ed is called to this new ruling of
the state department as to the

ers certificates Following this
illrffiook
000000 to 6000000 for the build Probably there will be no

ations and subways Electricity
will probably be the motive pow
er used to haul trains in and out
of the station The trainsheds
are to be of sufficient length to
accommodate 15 car trains
nations held in Red Willow coun
ty until November 17 18 1911
The schools of Red Willow
ounty are supplied with teach
ers and have several teachers
holding good grade certificate
without schools The grade of
certification is rising and this
year is much better than that of
the previous year No emergen
cies or permits are needed while
the proprietors have left the city many of the beginners holding
We understand they leave a num third grade certificates have
ber of local creditors j been working in school this sum-
Part of their goods have been mer Ten perhaps more of the

benefit of some unprotected cred
itors
It is stated too that some
checks were issued against a de l
pleted bank account hence these
persons are still unindemnified
The partners are said to have

- COMMUNICATED
We hear some people say why
do they pay the volunteer fire
men so much why don t they cut
down expenses Say how many
would get out of bed at night
run half a mile in a snow storm
for less than 2 or even for that
and run the risk of getting hurt
and fight fires to save thetown
And how many times do they run
for notliing when there is a false
alarm Where does the fun com
m They sure- earn all they get
Just see what they sare the town
es a few have better positions
elsewhere while others are work
ing in better positions in our
own county
A good certificate is only one
requisite of a good teacher but
with that beginning other things
being equal we should have man
rxtfellent teachers this rear The
Lhiiajiywa QpsivtioiJ -of
andteachers is needed to
make a good school The school
needs you Will you help
In the hope that you will T am
very truly yours

Air Sacs of Pigeons
The air sacs of the pigeon constitute
a system of interstices the value of
which lies in their absence of weight
and resistance
Flying is possible only to a body of
high mechanical efficiency divested of
all superflnous material The original
reptiles which by evolution became
birds were divested of superfluous ma
terial and the body spaces thus ob
tained were Ailed with air sacs The
body wall adapting itself to the me
chanial requirements became a hollow
cylinder serving as a support for tbe
organs of movement the mobility of
whose parts was assured by the sur
rounding air sacs The air cavities in
the bones of other birds are similarly
explained Harpers VVekly
