The Play is from the pen of the author
Of "A Poor Relation" and Peaceful

Smith Russell famous. It is a portrayal
of an American tramp-not a repulsive
ever-to- be-shunned outcast, but a man
who through misfortune was compelled
to wander upon the fact of the earth;
but whose heart, well knowing his own
distress, still bleeds for others woes
and who offers even his life TO help
right the wrongs Of others even more
unfortunate than he. The locale Of this
drama Is laid in rural New England.
and the motive is greed for gold with
which even a husband is sometimes
overpowered, and for which he terribly
wrongs his LIES partner. The story
is complex and Will be we'll worked out
by a competent cast of gifted players.
In the cast are such well known ar
lists as Miss Juliette Newell Miss Grace
Euler Miss Lille S. White, Miss Vera

indianapolis, Dec. 20.-The report Of
the state educational commission, APP
pointed by Governor Hanly, under a
joint resolution passed by both
branches of the last legislature, shows
q rather remarkable state Of affairs
Hs regards teachers salaries. 1t shows,
in effect, that present laws are not
SO deficient relative to teachers sal
aries as has been supposed; but that
the maximum salaries that may be
paid under the present laws have not
been paid In the great majority Of the
cities. towns and townships Of the
state

Teachers shouId co Busy.

The report points to the moral that
higher salaries may be obtained under
tile present laws. if each local com
nunity only wills It. Under these cir
cumstances the report, in a measure,
puts the matter Of better salaries up to
the teachers themselves. On this point,
the report says: "The remedy, it seems
to us, is largely I'm the hands Of the
teachers, who should direct more eff
fort toward the cultivation in their
communities Of a healthful public SEN
timent in favor of fair compensation
to teachers and a lengthening Of the
school term"
They Are Economical Communities.
In bearing out the statement that
the maximum salariesare not paid now
under the present laws, the report pre-
sents the following: "A study of the
report presented to the Teachers asso-
citation and adopted by 1t discIoses the
fact that only two Of the eighty-four
cities Of the state were, at the time
paying the maximum salaries to teach
ers possible under the law; only TWEEN
ty-nine of the oil towns of the state,
and only twenty one Of the 1915 town.

Investigation disclOses the fact that
many school corporations in the state
neglect or refuse to avail themselves
of the full, or even part. proportion
Of the bonefits of the local tax levies
permitted them under the law. In
many corporations the officials. refuse
to pay more than the minimum rate
OF wages and even insist upon en-
ploying teachers Of tnexperience or low
qualifications, commanding the small
est rate Of pay and do this not be
cause of any scarcity of funds, or the
lack of means to raise them"

That manipulation continues to render
