, except in Marion Township and
the Logan Special District. What
, class on earth is more worthy OF
good wages and consideration than
the teachers, and what class is
more poorly remuneratedp In
Benton and other townships at
present, there are vacancies that
are hard to fill, simply because
$50 month is the reward offered
for an earnest, conscientious man
or woman, of ability, to mould the
budding progeny of Hooking

A man can make more money than
that by working in brick-yard !;
and a woman who is good steno-
grapher can buy and sell such jobs
before breakfast. And yet the
only places where the appropria-
tions could be cut, were those for
the agriculture department at the
state university, and the school
levy.
