And no mention of schools is made In this second list.
 The appropriations for the educa- tfona1 interests will amount to approx fmately $1.100.000 year This lu- ciudes annual appropriations as fol- \ lows:
 University of Alabama, Si5o.0Oo; Au- burn. s5s,500: Montevallo. s48.0oo and the annual increase of the appropria- ton to the common schools by $350, ,0oo a year. The balance of the appropria- tion is made of the increase to the normal, the agricultural and the coun- ty high schools.
 In the same list the administration m the explanatory speeches. has classified the increase of the appropriations to the Confederate Veterans. This will amount to $250,0o0. This increase has gone on the list with the school appro- priations, which Is the list to which the administrations friends are fond of alluding. So far nothing has been said about the other large list of ap- propriations. made up of salary in- creases and new offices.
 The list printed as far as it can be obtained at this time. shows that the treasury was hard hit by appropria- tions that were made neither for the old soldiers nor for the schools.
 All of 1t figured up shows that the living expenses of Alabama increased with the meeting of the Legislature by S1, 1,300,000. As soon as all the acts are printed the exact and definite figures enlarging the list will be obtained and printed. /

IN ART OF COOKING
SERIES OF LESSONS WILL BE GIVEN
 AT STATE FAIR.
Mrs. Lily Haxworth Wallace Secured To Give Alabama Women an Hours Demonstration Each Day Dur
 ing the Exposition.

The woman's exhibit at the coming State Fair with its examples of art, needle work and novelties, will be filled with renewed interest when it is an~ nounced that the services of Mrs. Lily Haxworth Wallace. of New York. Ieet- urer on foods. have been secured.
 She will give daily lessons In the art of preparing foods. mixing and cooking for one hour each day such dishes and materials as are easily ob- tained. within moderate means. and palatable for those of epicurean taste. Mrs. Wallace is no stranger in thlS city. She visited here last winter and entertained the house-keepers with her valuable lessons.
 Mrs. Waliace's work in Alabama has been outlined by Mrs J. B. Reid, of Birmingham. and Is in direct co o-opera- tion with the Educational Committee of the Federation of Women's Clubs, of which Mrs. E.. D. Thames, of Green % ville, Is Chairman, and the movement to give these series of instructions in domestic science is also endorsed by Mrs. J. D. Matlock, of Birmingham, Chairman of the School Improvement Association of the Federation
 The woman's exhibit at the fair has a purpose more than to present on exhibition, lasting only a few days. It is an example that will serve as an instructor for others, and gives forcc and impetus to industry. The man. agement. sustained by the women of Alabama, will ouild an enterprise filled with object lessons worthy of copy to be enlarged upon from year to year
 Mrs. Cross and Mrs. Nixon, Superin- tendents of the Woman's Department, are arranging a comprehensive pro- gram. and each day will be filled with profitable entertainment.

MUST STAND EXAMINATION New Law Applies to All
 Teachers. cIIY DISTRICTS INCLUDED Pedagogues of Mobile the Only
 Exceptions in State. Provision of New Code Will Not Apply To Present School Year, As
 It Must First Be
 s2rinted.

school teachers in city schools and special school districts all over the state will have to stand the regular school examination after the new State code is proclaimed by the Governor to be In effect, if the decision of the At torney General is what it Is expected to be when he is finally appealed to.
 The matter has not yet been official ly brought to the attention of the At. torney General. but the question has been raised with the Superintendent of Education, and at the proper time he will ask the Attorney General for his decision on this matter
 Teachers in special school districts, who have heretofore been exempt from standing the regular State examination, are very much concerned to know whether or not they will be required to take the examination which the State department of education holds before licenses will be issued. Mobile is excepted by the statutes. but with the exception of the teachers there. all will have to share alike.
 Just when the new code vii be adopted Is yet a question of time. The contract with the printers calls for the completion of the book in six months, after which time the Governor will issue proclamation declaring the code in effect. This will put 1t near the summer examining season, when all teachers will have to settle down to work and prepare for the strenu- ous exams.
 During the last examinations in Ala bama about 75 per cent of the appli- cants made as high as 75 per cent or more which is something a little un- usual. and indicates that the general qualifications of applicants for posi- tions as school teachers are consider ably better than a few years ago. The normal schools have had much to do with this, 1t is believed, especially where the women teachers are oon- cerned.
 The demands for teachers in the State seems to eb very well supplied, as Secretary Willtngham of the examIn- ing board, has number of names on file of teachers who are anxious for positions. These are nearly all wo- men teachers, indicating that men are more in demand or less in supply as pedagogues.
 There has been great crop of teachers this year, there being more new ones than ever before and the general averages of the applicants for license have been higher.

 But there are besides these, slip pers such as are worn in the eve- ming at home and up-to-date styles. They are merely a little of this and a little of that, which means not complete sizes and widths in any one kind.
 But there may be just the size and kind that a person wants. All of this of course means individ- ual seeking.
