Longer School Terms.

Superintendent of public instruc-
tion, S. A. Mynders, is mailing out
circular letters to County Court
members in the interest of longer
terms for the public schools. He
saws:
81 have been officially notified by
Theo. King, comptroller OF the treas
ury, that the amount to be distributed
is S271 900, or 35 cents per capita.
Multiplying the scholastic population
of your county by 35 cents, 1t will give
the amount that You will receive. A
warrant for this will be sent to your
trustee within few days.
The great needs OF the public
schools in Tennessee are longer aver
age term and more efficient i1struc-
ton in the primary schools. To supply
these needs will require more money,
AS this help from the State comes
without any increase of taxation, |
urge upon your honorable body to meet
IL by increasing your county appropria'
ton for school purposes. No county in
the State should have an annual term
of less than six months, and the strong
err counties should provide for at least
eight months"
The 1921 900 is the surplus in
the State treasury, which, under the
law, goes to the school fund.

In July, 1904, q sperm whale was
killed off the east coast Of Newfound-
land, and from the cavity back Of the
gigantic skull nearly $500 worth OF
spermaceti was dipped. This SO far
as the records show, is the fourth
sperm whale ever caught in Northern
waters. Within the last four years
whaling has sprung to foremost place
among the industries of Newfoundland.
For unforeseen and inexpiicable rea-
sons these monster mammals of the
deep have resumed their visits to the
North Atlantic and dozens OF whale
factories" have been built and are
now in profitable activity along the
coast of the island Every part Of
the whale is now utilized. Oil. bones,
skin. entrails and flesh have places in
the marketable products OF the mighty
creatures. Bologna sausages made
from the flesh Of the whale are one
OF the most profitable products and
find steady sale In the West Indies
and In the markets Of Central and
