school receives prominent and full
treatment in the The Outlook s Edu-
cational Number. One article deals
with the personality of some of our
ablest Public School Leaders," with
dozen or so portraits of a few of the
men who have made American public
schools what thev are. Another, by
Miss Winifred Buck, also fully illus
trated, tells of Work and Play in
the Public Schools Still another
article, under the head "The Public
School Programs, written by Andrew
S. Draper, the New York State Com
missioner of Education, gives exceed
ingly sensible advice as to the princi-
pies upon which the courses in the
public schools should be laid out.

POOR PAY

One of the last acts of the old
board Of county commissioners was
to lower the wage scale for the la
boring man.
All supervisors of the roads in the
county have been notified that here
after SO a day will be paid for a man
and team and $3.50 for a single man.
This applies to road work done in
the county. 1t was deemed best by
the board to set a scale by reason of
the fact that a number of the super
visors were paying more than others.
When questioned about the decrease
in the wages one of the board said a
farmer could work cheaper than a
man living in the city. Feed for
horses was not so high and tiller
of the soil could afford to work for
less.
The first thing the new board did
was to raise the salary Of the sher-
IFS Office force.
The union men intend to look into
the matter and if possible will reach
the parties doing county road work

PAGE CASE
(Scripps News Association

(Scripps News Association.)
BOSTON, Jan. 16.-The defense of
Charles Tucker, charged with the
murder of Mabel Page, was begun
today. The state has made strong
case of purely circumstantial evil
dence.
Thomas f. Vahoy made an opening
argument for the defense. He said
he would prove that Tucker was not
guilty of the crime, that he owns the
stickpin produced in evidence and
that the person who wrote the note
and Morton address" was none other
than Miss Paige.
The defense admitted Tucker own
ed the knife in question and that he
broke the knife after having been
under suspicion which frightened
him. He would prove also that the
knife could not possibly in1ict the
wounds on Miss Pages body.
