Reports In the daily press Of the past
week tell OF an old professor In Hi
nois, eighty years OF age. who after
lifelong thrift and economy had sue
ceeded in accommodating competence
of $12. 900, every cent OF which he had
lately lost as a result Of bucking slot
machines. The reports picture the old
man penniless and on the road to the
poorhouse, hugging tight to his breast
the Greek, Latin and French books
which had been accomplishments Of his
former years of good horse sense and
industry While the instance cited Is
probably extreme, II is pretty good
illustration of the finish of large
class OF fellows who make a business
of bucking slot machines or engage in
enterprises that are Just as disappolnt-
ing ana foolhardy. many Of whom do
not have so much as a Latin grammar
or Greek lexicon as a relic TO remind
them of better days and cheer them In
their restitution The poorhouse IS the
logical If not always actual destination
of the slot machine deyotee.

SENSIBLE SCHOOL DIRECTORS.

The subdrectors Of a nearby town
ship have taken a long step in the so
luton OF the vexed problem of n
scarcity of teachers for the rural
schools by raising wages from $40 per
month for autumn and spring terms
and $50 for winter terms TO n uniform
level OF So. These directors are to
be commended for their good sense
and discrimination. They realize that
the cost of living has been steadily
increasing during number of years
past. while under the most favorable
conditions the country schOOlma'am
can lay by only a small portion Of her
earnings Then. too. their action Is to
be commended because they believe
that their children are worthy Of as
good instruction as their farm animals
are of proper care and rations The
scarcity Of teachers over the country
IS going To result in similar action by
many other school directors.
