TO CUT DOWN
SCHOOL MONEY
". D. VOORHEES, Says Beard
ef Education will Not
Get SI62,300.
WOULD INCREASE TAXES
Budget 10 $4,000 Greater
Than Last Year--Want
20 New teachers.

Alderman-at-LaTge William D.
voorhees,, a member of the Board Of
School Estimate, stated today that
too much publicity cannot be given
the amount Of money which the
Board Of Education is asking for the
maintenance of schools this year.
Personally, Mr.. voorhees, feels that
the sum asked, S162.30O, is out Of
proportion TO the financial Income Of
The city. He states that it will un-
dOubtedly be cut down several thou
sand dollars at least when the Board
of Estimate meets.
Comparison With Other Years.
Mr. voorhees, showed the follow
ing comparisons Of the amount ask
ed this year with the amount re-
ceived the previous four years:
ISVI ''.....-.. ...........S $4,000
1913 ................-. 100000
I5O5 .'....-... 111,000
1910 ....-......... 100000
1911, asked ........... 162.300
He calls attention to the fact that
he 1911 figures as devised by the
school board are $4,000 greater
than IN 1910. The money asked by
the school board is all for general
bonds, interest, repairs. etc Mr..
voorhees, states that the school board
proposes to place twenty additional
teachers on its staff. Whey they will
be placed is a mystery, he afirms.
Although pending improvements to
the schools will give eight more class
rooms in school No s and the high
school is being remodeled and addf-
tons being made for six more rooms.
It is not proposed to use all this
space the coming year. as he under
stands 1t, q portion Of the extra
school room being intended for the
future growth of the school popula-
ton.
VIII Mean More Taxes.
The money asked will mean a big
boost in the taxes, Mr.. Voorhees, says,
snd economy should be practiced
where possible by the school board
as well as the municipal boards.
Education is an expensive as well as
a necessary proposition. in Mr.. Voor-
hees' Opinfon, but II should be dis
tributed with a general knowledge of
its cost.
Mr. VOORHEES, spoke OF the Board
Of Alderman as making MP the city

rate at a nominal figure. only to have
the Board Of Education come for

The Worth of the Voice.

How wonderful is the human voice!
1t is indeed the organ of the soul!
The intellect of man sits enthroned
visibly upon his forehead and in his
eye, and the heart Of man is written
upon his countenance. But the soul
reveals itself in the voice only; as
God revealed himself to the prophet Of
old in the still, small voice, and in
the voice from the burning bush. The
soul Of man is audible, not visible. A
sound alone betrays the flowing of the
eternal fountain, invisible to

f, the level of my eyes; and pass for q
tall man."
His father abandoned the subject
abruptly, and for a while contrived to
talk Of other things; Of the details OF
the fight and how different members
Of the crew had borne themselves.
But his mind was filled with a new
terror, and as soon as he could feel
that his son was in condition to be
left alone, ne left him, with a broken
word of excuse. He must either set
this new terror at rest, or know the
worst at once There had been no
one, either among the survivors or the
slain of the Walrus party, who in any
way resembled the monster Tom had
described.
An hour later he went back to the
bridge to a III again with Captain
Warner. He thought hat they had
sounded the depth of despair that
former time when they had talked to-
gether there, but in this last hour he
had sounded a new abyss beneath it
all. He knew now why the yacht had
been so easily taken. He knew all the
details of the devilish plan which had
SO nearly succeeded. More than that,
he knew the story of the man Roscoe
from the time when Captain Planck
had taken him aboard the Walrus,
down to the hour last night when he
had sprung into his boat again n
pulled shoreward. Captain Planck
was dying, and old Mr.. Fanshaw's
questions had enabled him to enjoy
the luxury of a full confession.
So they knew now, those two men
who stood there on the bridge, white
Tipped, talking over the horror of the
thing-they knew that Jeanne was not
alone upon that terrible frozen shore.
The man Roscoe was there, ,too.
A sound on the deck below attracted
Mr.. Fanshaw's attention. Tom, with
the aid of a heavy cane, was limping
precariously along the deck toward
the bridge ladder, and, to their amaze
ment, when he looked up at them,
they saw that somehow, his face had
cleared. There was a grave look Of
peace upon it.
I've thought Of something he
said, after he had climbed up beside
them-"I've thought of something that
makes it seem possible to go on liv-
ing, and even hoping"
The two older men exchanged a
swift glance. He was not to know
about Roscoe. If he had found some
thing to hope for, no matter how H.
lusory, he should be allowed to Keep
ito hug it to his breast, in place Of
the horrible, t%orturing vision of the
human monster which the other two
men saw.
What is it you've thought > of,
Toni" his father asked u~nsteadily.
"It's-it's Cayley. He's there with
her; I'm sure he is" He turned
away a little from Captain Warner
and spoke directly to his father. II
don't know how l know, but it's as If
I saw them there together. He has
fallen in love with her, l think. I'm
quite sure she has with aim. I wanted
to kill him for that yesterday, but
now his voice faltered there, but
the look in his eyes did not change
the light of a serene, untroubled
hope.-"He's there with her" he went
on, land with Gods help he'll keep
her alive until we can get back with
the relief"
He said no more, and he clutched
the rail tight in his gauntleted hands
and gazed out north, across the ice.
