"Pedestrians Have the Right of Way." Judge W. A. Budroe of Dayton, Ohio, has just declared unconstitutional a new city ordinance which compels pedestrians to cross streets at congested thoroughfares "over such portion of the street as is included within the lines of the side-walk projected and not diagonally, and shall not cross except upon permission of the traffic officer in charge of said crossing." Concerning the unconstitutionality of such an ordinance, the learned judge expresses his opinion as follows : "It is a well-established principle of lawauthorities are numerous and it will not be necessary to cite any of them here, that the rights of pedestrians are paramount in the streets and that all other users of the streets, towit, vehicles of all kinds, horses, etc., must make way to the rights of the pedestrian. The supreme
court has only just recently passed upon this J
question more fully and insists that to the people belong the streets, that is to the pedestrians, and that all other users are restricted in their ' use by statutes, ordinances, etc." The judge believes the streets belong to the pedestrians and not to the drivers. Will not some philanthropic patriot cause a copy of this paragraph to be pasted in the head of every automobile owner in Richmond?
Birds Does a bird appear to you as a negligible factor and not worthy of the attention of a grown man? Not so do the feathered creatures appear
to Uncle Sam. He has just completed a nationwide census of his bird population and made public the fact that in this country we have no fewer than 2,026,000,000 .of them. Of this vast number, 100,000,000 are robins that live east of the Mississippi River. Yet huge as this population is, it is still not sufficient to keep in check the insect hordes that are ever struggling against the obstacles that keep them back. Inseqts are prolific almost be-, yond belief, as is illustrated by the common house-fly, which, though it is no more prolific than thousands of other varieties, breeds with such astonishing rapidity that if all the progeny of a single summer could live and propagate their kind, they would form a mass that would cover the earth frty-seven feet deep. Naturalists have estimated that if the insects were not checked, they would denude the earth of all vegetation in five years and make life for everything, including themselves, impossible. One of the chief agents in holding back these
floods of living creatures is the bird." It has been said by reliable ornithologists that a single robin
in one day will eat more than his bulk of insects.
Thus it is seen that the government's effort to protect birds is based on sound economic
principles. The migratory bird laws recently gone into effect are preventing the killing off of
any of the common songsters before they leave
the south on their spring pilgrimage. This has brought about a very noted increase in the number of birds. And other measures which the federal government has in prospect will, it is hoped, be equally efficacious. Meanwhile the private citizen can do his share. The housekeeper who keeps a pan of water in the back yard, who scatters a little grain now and then, who endures the self-denial of not having a cat about (one of the most dangerous foes of birds), will help the bird families which will keep down the insect population and thus give the farmer of the country better crops and so add to the prosperity of the nation. Best of all, a father or mother can teach the children the knowledge of birds and of their importance to our human society. The coming generation should not only know that it is folly to kill the birds, but should also enjoy a positive knowledge of the marvelous part they play in our human economy.
WomenofColumbianClub Give Joy to Life on Farm
The latest addition In Wayne county to the ranks of the farm women's clubs 1b the Home Economics club of the Columbian Farmers' association. Although this club has only existed for about six months, its growth has been rapid, and work accomplished unusually interesting. The club was organized through the efforts of a few women liying in the vicinity of school district No. 6 in Wayne township, assisted by Mrs. "A. D. Cobb, wife of former County Agent Cobb. A clause of the constitution of the club imparts the Information that
"The purpose of this club is to help each other to make better homes, and have more joy in living." It is the unanimous verdict of the members that this purpose is being realized in many ways. The club meets every two weeks, sometimes at the homes of the members and sometimes at the school house, which has been placed at their disposal by Trustee James Haworth. The ladies have taken up a course of study in home making, and interesting papers have been discussed and demonstrations are often given of new and helpful ideas. At each meeting the role of members is called, and each answers with some original idea, such
as "Something I want in my kitchen," "A labor-saving device in my home," etc. Topics Discussed. A meeting of the club, .held, last week in the school house serves to show the interest the ladies are taking, and the benefits they are receiving. Thirty-eight women, members of the club and other guests, all farm women but three, were present, and this in the busiest season of the year on the farm. As the secretary called the role the members answered by naming their favorite "hot weather dishes." The responses included "apple sauce," "iced chocolate," "lemonade and cold
JULY SNOWS COOL ARDOR OF BEN PRICE IN COLORADO
Ben G. Price, delegate of the local lodge of Elks to the last national convention, who has been touring Colorado, has written the following observations: Manitou Col., July 22, 1914. Raining as usual every day. Naturally it is cold with it. One day there fell on the peak six inches of tsnow. Yesterday we took the Wild Flower-trip up the Ute mountains and believe me until we got to the divide, I never saw prettier flowers. Over the divide we struck a snow storm, which covered the entire surface of tlie earth, then the cloud burst and say it was indescribable. Sheets of water came down and it kept it up for one-half hour, the peaceful mountain streams becoming raging torrents that swept everything be-
couple of days as the train going back east is heavy! Enjoys Trip. We will stay a couple of days with Bennett Gordon and wife, then to Chicago. John will visit his son-in-law for a few days. I have some busi
ness for a day then will proceed to go home. On the whole our trip has been enjoyable, the enjoyment this time not lasting as long as heretofore. I at: tribute it all to the "measly" weather. We were treated royally by everybody in Denver and certainly did have a good time. We met Frank Taylor, wife daughter and son at Denver. The young folks are staying at Manitou, though we have not met them here, in fact we have been on the jump all the time so that we have had no time to visit or be visited. Gosh it is snowing again me for a warm

Following a short talk on the use of i
the parcel post In marketing butter
and eggs, by A. D. Cobb, Mrs. C. F. Nolder read a paper on the different ways of serving fruit She spoke of the important part fruit played as a summer food, In keeping the system in order. Shows Labor Device. Mrs. A. D. Coob discussed "GooM Taste in House Furnishing." using samples of rugs and carpets, and wall paper to illustrate her points.: Myron Murley, one of the school boys of the neighborhood, gave a demonstration with a gasoline iron, one of the labor saving devices that the farm woman can use to good advantage. The most Interesting feature of the afternoon was a demonstration of a meal cooked in a fireless cooker by Mrs. William Klopp, of Richmond.
Mrs. Klopp brought her cooker with her, and produced a cake, baked beans, baked chicken and apple sauce, done to a turn. She explained the simplic
ity of the cooker, and emphasized the j advantage in hot summer weather, of
being about to get the meals, without having to stand over a hot stove. The ladies had been Invited to bring plates and spoons, and were allowed to sample the viands set forth. These women have come to look forward to their club days as real events in the routine of their work. They urge other farm women to organize similar'clubs, for they feel that club life Is no longer a luxury to be enjoyed only by the women of town and city, but a necessity of the busy farm woman, that she may make her home 'a real home in the fullest sense of the word; that she may bring up better, healthier boys and girls that will find a new interest in farm life, and that she may have the recreation and -social pleasure that will help her in her own work.

MACHINE III DITCH
Denver Murray Loses Control of Car. EATON, July 27. Denver Murray, near New Hope and Miss Bertha Herbst, residing near Eaton, narrowly escaped injury Sunday evening about 6 o'clock when an auto to which they were riding was ditched near the home of J. H. McGee, two and on-half miles northeast of this city. Murray attempted to pass another machine and lost control of his auto, which was badly damaged. One fender was smashed, front spring broken, steering radius twisted, and the car otherwise damaged.

fore them; two bridges went out on i shoes and straw hat, no fire in this
our railroad, and one place the water
dashed the track until it dug out the till for twenty feet lengthwise and the width of the track, leaving the rails and ties suspended in the air; looked as if it were impossible to get it fixed tor twenty-four hours but we backed to a little station called Floirsant, there they sent one of our locomotives a. flat oar loaded with timbers and men, all they could command and trated to make repairs. Commandeers Food.
As soon as I realized our predica-1 ment, I struck out for the only general store to get something to eat, as everything had berti eaten up on the socalled diner. We got two cans of sardines and a package of Uneeda biscuits, four oranges, four peaches and went back to our train to await progress in reconstruction of our road bed and bridges. People were searching everywhere for something to eat. We had coffee taking hot water out of the locomotive boiler and a package of coffee bought at the store. Some folks took sick-from chill and fright. About 11 o'clock we were notified we would try to get back and believe me it was dangerous, the engineers would every once in a while stop, get off and walk ahead feeling the track before going on with their engines, and finally we got out of those mountains. I have had about enough, I don't like snow any time of year but in July it seems doubly nasty. Mountain Accident. They had an accident on the cog road, blew out a cylinder head, lost all their steam; the engineer and fireman jumped off, leaving the engine and coach to run wild down the mountain. The brakeman tried to set brakes to save them from a crash at the bottom, next to our hotel and partially succeeded; otherwise there would, have been a lot of people killed. As it was, they were only bruised and knocked about a lot. Fortunately the train was not very far up the track when it happened or there would have been nothing to it, but death. Dear old Manitou has lost its charm In a way, and if she wants me to visit her again she must improve in the weather. The business people on the street are very blue; people come one day and skidoo. Bad weather- has no charms for people out for pleasure. If it had not been for the jolly good Elks there would be very few people about. This Is a most quiet hotel, too quiet for John, but we have not been .here to sleep once. except for today, and we did not get up very early, for we did not get to bed until morning on account of our Wild Flower trip. We are thinking if our laundry comes of going to Denver tonight remaining tfeere long enough to secure berths for Sioux City Iowa; that may take a
"hut-tel" as Abe Martin says. The folks have to make it during the three months that the tourists are here, the other nine months they eat snow balls and drink spring water. BEN G. PRICE.

INDIANAPOLIS, July 27. Progressives have been holding district conferences in all the districts. The state chairman and Albert J. Beveridge, candidate for senator,' have gone direct to the people to talk things over. The
effect has been tremendous ana tne work has been effective. StandpatS have felt that they were called on to do something on organization lines. So they have called the county chairmen in to Indianapolis for those typical back-room caucus stunts, where the few attend to the party's affairs in sibilant whispers behind locked doors. This may be very profitable to the bar at Jim Hemenway's Indianapolis hotel, where the standpat workers foregather. ' It may mean a big boost in the cocktail market, but It aoes not get a political party any
where with the voters. Cocktail con
ferences and star chamber caucus
sessions held in Indianapolis for the personal profit of Hemenway, the standpat landlord and buffet-chairman
emeritus, will not bring about any r&
suits in the precincts, where the folks
live. The Progressive plan of taking
the organization to the rank and file
is by far the better system. Progressives Gain.
Seventy-five Democrats in the
Seventh ward, Indianapolis, who voted in 1912 for Wilson for President, being interviewed this year, showed 62
for Shively for senator, 12 for Bev
eridge, and one doubtful. In the same
precinct, where 25 Progressive votes were returned to 1912 65 voters have definitely joined the Progressive working organization. Thirty-one Repubpublicans in the same community, all whom voted for Taft In 1912, now say say that on the Senatorship they will stand, Beveridge 3, Shively 2, and Miller, 25. Of 13 Socialists visited by the same Interviewer in the Seventh ward, 9 gave it out that this year they will vote for Beveridge, the Progressive for senator. It does not take much figuring to show that this trend, shown in the daily talks of citizens,
