Reader. Say I'm sway Off,

Desr Margery:
Either you or I have been taught
wrongly about arithmetic. You say
''feetxfeet" equal square feet. was
taught that the multlplier Is always
abstract Feetxfeet don't equal square
feet. any more than catsxcats equal
square cats. You're way off. Sincerely,
NJ. g. G.
The trouble was not with the in
struction you received but with the
way in which you received it. The
mnltiplier is usually abstract, but IN
the case of areas and volumes 1t is
not. In multiplying the length oy
the breadth, whether it be feet, yards
or miles the result is the square OF
the denomination used as multiplier
and multiplican. Say lot is 10 feet
bv feet. The area is 50 square feet,
meaning that if you divide the inside
of the lot into small lots foot square
you viii have so of them. Is that
clear?
Cats are not standard of meas
urement. Can you imagine having
an opportunity to use them as such!

BANNER CONNECTS SENT ID SPE|GNERS About 100 Will Be Trans ferred to Prison Pending
 Repairs at Mine

Montgomery. December 9-(Special.)-As result of the fire which occurred at Banner mine, in Jefferson county. last week about 100 convicts who were em- ployed in operating the mine will be transferred to the state prison at Speig- ners. This announcement was made by the state convict department.
 In addition to those convicts who will be transferred to Speigners, about l5O convicts will be put to work in other mines in the coal district and the re- maining number will be kept at the Ban ner mines until the damage done by the fire has been repaired

TOFORCE MILLS ID
 PROVIDE SCHOOLS Department of Education Is Preparing for Action VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN Unsuitable Conditions Exist at Jack sonyille Factory School, Declares
 Superintendent Willingham
 After Recent Visit
VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN

Montgomery December 9-(Special.)- The state department of education is preparing to conduct a vigorous cam les in the state that have not provided adequate facilities for the education of the children in their employment.
 Under the Jaw the children working in cotton factories under sixteen years of age are required to attend school eight weeks during the year. The factories are required to construct and equip school houses for such children, although the children are permitted to attend the graded schools of the factory communi- ties if their parents so desire. In most of the cases, however, the factory chill dren attend the school provided by their employers.
 But the department of education does not believe that these school houses meet the requirements, and it is for the cor rection of this evil that the department will make a campaign. According to Su- perintendent of Education Henry J. Willingham, many of the school houses in the factory communities are in a pitt fable condition, lacking in proper equip- ment and all other facilities for much progress.
 This condition was found to be es-
 pecially true at a Jacksonville factory school. which Superintendent Willing ham visited last Saturday There he found conditions entirely unsuitable for a school, he declares. The school house was one of the factory cottages, in row with a large number of other cottages. No blackboards were pro- vided for the children he says, and few of the other facilities needed for edu- cational purposes.
 Superintendent Willingham declares that he has been informed that similar conditions obtain in other communities of the state, and he has expressed his intendtion of going after" these fac tories as vigorously as possible. "I have been told that the factory children do not care to attend school" said Superintendent Willingham. "Is 1t at all surprising when they are ex- pected to attend school in buildings more dilapidated, and with less facili- ties, than those used by children in the rural communities 25 years ago? l be- lieve that the fault lies not so much with the children as with their employ CTS, and the department of education is determined to use its efforts to inn prove conditions In the factory com munities."

PAY TEACHERS IN TIME FOR HOLIDAYS State Will Make Arrange ments With Banks to Ad-
 vance Salaries

Montgomery, December 9.-(Special)- The glad tidings have gone out that the teachers of the state will receive their December salary in time for the Christmas holidays.
 Such was the announcement made to- day by Superintendent of Education Henry J. Wilingham. who stated that the state would endeavor to make ar- engagements whereby the banks would advance the necessary funds for the payment of teachers. If there is sufh- cient money in the treasury to pay the teachers before the regular time-rhe first Saturday in January-warrants will be sent out from the capitol in time to meet the pay rolls in the various coun- ties of Alabama If there is pot suf- ficent money in the treasury, the de- partment of education hopes that the local county treasurers of school funds will arrange with the banks to advance the money until the states warrants have been received, which will be about two weeks later, probably earlier.
 MT. Willingham said today that he had heard from Treasurer H. L. McEl- cry of the Taladega schools, to he ef- feet that he had arranged for the Tal- ladega county teachers to receive their salaries in time for the holidays, and

Charges against Phillips were based on letters in which he referred to a job at Beaverton, N. Y. as follows:
 Tt is fine place to make an ever lasting piece of work and set them think ing. It can be done very easy and I am going to look for something doing when the right time comes. The Barge canal work looks all to the bad there.n
 The witness said he was trying to in duce McNamara to employ two or three men to ascertain whether the eight hour law was being violated.
 In another letter he stated Brother Butler will be interested" referring to John T. Butler, Buffalo, also a defendant, and added: Some of the brothers are getting restless and are anxious to see something happen
 In reply McNamara wrote:
 T am afraid you speak a little too plainly in your letters. I am not criticis- ing you, but no one knows who reads my letters and this is just to give you a pointer. Our people should be careful what they put on paper when writing to headquarters.
 In reference to all his correspondence Phillips disavowed any purpose to use violence on non-union work.

SOIL SURVEYORS IN
 STATE INCREASED
Four New Experts Will Be Placed in Alabama by the
 National Government

Montgomery, December 9--(Special.) ) As evidence of the desire of the na- tional government to further the cause of agriculture in Alabama, the United States department of agriculture has decided to put four new soil surveyors in the state, thus increasing the present number of government men in the state to six.
 This announcement was made today by Capt. Reuben r. Kolb, commission CT of agriculture and industries, who has just returned from the annual meeting of the National Rivers and Harbors congress, which was in ses- sion last week in Washington.
 While visiting at the national capita. Captain Kolb called on officials at the department of agriculture and made d request for additional soil surveyors in Alabama. Heretofore the government has kept two surveyors in the state, and they have worked in conjunction with the four surveyors employed by the state department of agriculture.
 With the additional force which the government will put in Alabama there will be 10 surveyors in the field and the work of making surveys of the various counties will progress more rapidly and satisfact torily, according t0 Captain Kolb
 The new soil surveyors will take up their duties on January 1 and will be assigned to the counties of Escambia, Bullock, Clay and Russell.

RULE NIS| ISSUED
 IN THE LYONS CASE

Montgomery, December 9.-(Special.)- The supreme court of Alabama has issued rule nisi to the judge of the equity court of Mobile to show cause why the decree of that court should not be dis missed in the case of J. F. Walters ct al vs. Pat J. Lyons, growing out of the contested election for the office of city commissioner. The answer of the judge of the equity court is returnable Jan uary 16. 1913.
 The case is the result of proceedings instituted by J. P. Walters and John Duff to oust MT. Lyons from office as a mem Der of the city commission. The peti- tioners for mandamus allege that in the election on September ?, 1912, MT. Lyons received large number of illegal votes, sufficient to give him the office. His opponents in the election were H. T. Hartwell, David D. Logan and C. C.. Hutchinson.
 The lower court rendered a decree in favor of MT. Lyons. whereupon an ap- peal was taken to the supreme court
