MEN GET THE MOST MONEY

Figures ON Salaries of Teachers in
the State.
LINCOLN Hoes the man teacher
deserve a better salary than the wo-
man teacher who does the same work?
The table of increase for the last six
years. as prepared by state Superin.
tondent Fowler shows that the low.
est average salary paid the man
teacher exceeds the highest one paid
the woman teacher by S177. and that
the highest salary paid the man
teacher exceeds the highest paid the
woman by S1119. Despite the in.
crease in salaries, the number of men
teachers has steadily decreased In
1903 the decrease of men teachers
and the corresponding increase in wo.
men teachers amounted to more than
16 per cent.
One Of the reasons other than iinan-
cial, given for the detection of the
men is that it is found that women
are much more successful in the low
er grades than are mon. They are
almost invariably more patient, per
severing and tactfu Women teach
ers are now in demand for the coun-
try schools of the state, and men are
not, 1t is claimed that the women
themselves are in part to blame for
their scanty wages because they do
not prepare sufficiently for their work
to enable them to demand adequate
payment But this assertion does not
hold good in many cases. Neverthe-
less, Superintendent Fowler declares
that it is in the power of the women
teachers of Nebraska to raise the av-
erage wage of their sex from $40 to
$55 simply by preparing for It and
then demanding it.

A California senator, who recently
returned to his home from a European
tour, has been telling a story of his
adventures which rebounds to the
credit of the London bus conductor.
On a very rainy day, the senator got
into an omnibus. Very soon he no.
ticed that drops of water were patter.
ing down upon his head from the roof.
At that moment the conductor entered
to collect the fares whats the mat.
Ter with the roof" said the damp sen.
ator; does it do this always?" No,

Kites as Seapeooats.

Everybody knows the fondness OF
the ADULT Chinese for kite flying. The
Korean, however puts this pastime to
use altogether novel When the
time of good resolutions comes around
ut the new year the Korean writes
on a kite all his faults, Evil disposi-
tion, impatience, bad words, street
fights etc 1T was so dark" says
one American residing in Korea, re-
lating such an instance, that no kite
could be seen, but when he had run
the string out TO its full length he
cut it and let it go, imagining that so
he had rid himself of his enemies and
could begin the new year with new
courage"

To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new
things of everyday use in the market
and who is reasonably satisfied with
the old, we would suggest that a trial
OF Defiance Cold Water Starch be
made at once Not alone because it
is guaranteed by the manufacturers
to be superior to any other brand,
but because each 10c package con-
tains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds
contain but IL ozs. 1t is safe to say
that the lady who once uses Defiance
Starch will use no other. Quality
and quantity must win.
