Charleston, w. Va, Oct. 11.-Un-
less an early settlement of the West
Virginia coal miners strike is effe;J-
ed, there will soon be great suffer
ing among the families of the strik-
ers. Having been driven from the
company-owned houses, the strikers
are living in tents furnished by the
coal miners union. These tents
make 4 poor shelter from the RAIN
and cold. and poorly clad women
and children are already suffering
AS winter approaches con-
ditions will grow worse, and it Is
believed the miners will be starved
and frozen into submission.
In spite of the suffering of wom-
en- and children, quiet prevails IN
the strike region. Six companies o:
militia which had been on duty were
.disbanded on October 2.
In the meantime the Mining In
vestigating Commission. appointed
by Gov. Glasscock to study condi-
lions in the strike region, continues
its inquiry. Mine guards who saw
service in the coal fields before the
occupancy Of the strike district by
the militiamen have appeared before
the commission and denied stories

miners and their wives.

If you teach, your personal cor
duct is a public trust; your behav-
for is not private matter; ideal cx-
peetations lay structures upon W ur
personal liberty. Pupils and parents
have right to expect the teacher
to be very much better than merely
good. In almost every other calling
laxity in personal ideals of conduct
Is tolerated because of prevalent Gus
toms. The customer does not rigidlv
scrutinize the private behavior of
his dealer. The physician, dentist,
lawyer and other technical men are
not held sharply to account for their
standards of behavior, their indiscre-
lions or lapses. The opposite atti-
tude is taken toward teachers. The
teacher Is searched, criticised weigh
ed; he is generally commented on
by those whom he serves. This Is
not in an unfriendly spirit. The
Imotive is not destructive. Benign
results follow. 1t is right. The peo-
PIC should expect, and If need arise.
they should demand, that the teach
sr's public and private life TX
