"It will probably servo :u got>d purpose to take note of some or the uueiiual and unjust rates now In effe« t in rail road transportation from the city of Omaha alone. "The carload rate on machinery from Omaha to New Orleans for export is 7R V* , rents per hundred pounds.

Children Go 30 Miles a Day by Bus to Attend School Ilow would you like to have an au tomobile bus pick you up at your doorstep each morning and whisk you off to school, and then return you to your home at night? You'd like it? But, perhaps, it wouldn't be so pleasant if the journey was a matter of 13 miles or so. Scottsbluff county in the western part of Nebraska is a district of great open spaces and quite often a man’s next door neighbor mhy live a mile or so away, perhaps even farther. There was a time when the matter of higher education wasn't a point of great importance in Scottsbluff coun ty. The citizenry wns too busy try ing to scratch a living fi*om the land. Then came the Interstate Irriga tion project and the North Platte val ley became a land of fertile fields. The problem of eking out an existence became easier of solution and here and there districts of the county be gan to devote more attention to ways and means of educating their chil dren . One district—Lake Alice, where is located one of the large storage res\ ervoirs of the Interstate reclamation project—found its high school prob lem particularly baffling, for its district contained 43 square miles. But the Lake Alice district was populated by determined men and women and they refused to let a lit tle thing like distance deter them In their plans for a high school. Sr) in 1915 the Lake Alice consoli dated schools were established and th#i' automobile buses purchased by the board of education to transport the boys and girls to and from school. The entire district of 43 square miles is covered by these three buses. The aggregate distance covered by these buses earth day is 90 miles. Some of the students travel 30 miles a day in order to attend classes. Itain or snow (he buses operate. Another problem that confronted the Lake Alice board of education was that of housing its teachers. So a new 11-room teacherage was erected in I?i20 at a cost of Jlu.OOO. Here eight teachers can make their home. Th^re also is an apartment, for the .superintendent. Th*» I#ake Alice school maintains a The buses used to carry children of the I.ake Alice school to and from class. This picture was taken when the students were about to start out for an outing. regular four-year high school course and its graduates are accepted at the state university. A well-equipped manual training department also la maintained.- t M. A. Sams is- superintendent of the school, lie went out to Scotts bluff county from Douglas rounty.
