The County School superintendent


Should the county superintendent
Of schools be a Judge, sheriff, a
political officeholder, or Just an cd
ucator who knows his business a,ad
gives his whole attention to the
schools? He is or has been all OF
these in different parts of the United
States. In Teras 1t is the county
judge who serves in many OF the
counties as ex.officio superintendent
of Schools, and in at least one state
the sheriff used to hold the. office.
But Texas expects soon to have real
county superintendent in all the
counties that are still without them,
according to information received al
the United States Bureau of Educa-
ton.
The new Texas plan is based OF

For Young Women Travellers.

7 4 F. + l. . a
A committee of the Young Wo
mems Christian Association of New
York City is seriously CONSIDERING
q proposal to post n every railroad
station and street railway car in the
United States the following warning:
to young women travellers:
Girls should never speak to
strangers. either men or women. in
the street. in shops, in stations, in
trains. in lonely country roads or IL
places OF amusement. y
Girls should never ask the way
of any but officials on duty, such Gi
policemen, railway officials or post
men.
Girls should never stay to help a
woman who apparently faints a;
their feet in the street. but should inn
mediately call a policeman to he!
aid.
.'Girls should never accept an. IN
yitation to join Sunday school or
Bible class given to them by
strangers. even If the strangers are
wearing the dress of sisters or nuns
or are n clerical attire.
Girls should never go to an al
dress given to them by stranger.
Girls should never go with a
stranger, even if the stranger is
dressed as a hospital nurse, or be-
lieve stories of their relatives hav-
ing suffered accident or having been
taken Ill suddenly, as this is com
mon device 10 kidnap girls.
Girls should never accept candy.
food or candy at their doors. Any
.ers offered to them by strangers.
Neither should they buy scents or
food o rcandy at their doors. Any
of those things may contain drugs.
Girls should never take situa-
tons without first making Inquiries
through a society active or affiliated
in travellers aid work.
Girls should never go to any
large town even for one night with
out knowing of safe lodging"
The idea of promulgating the
rules is a good one. as the informa-
tlon contained in them is sensible
advice that should be brought to the
notice Of all young women travellers.
1t may be questioned, however.
whether the method of publishing
them is the best that can be devised.
although 1t is step in the right di-
rection. Placards and signs have
become such nuisance particularly
in larger centers that few people no.
tice them any more.
Having direct and important
bearing upon the white slave evil,
the rules will. however, be discussed
at the Sociological Congress to be
held next month in Atlanta, Ca. in
connection with the problems cen
fronting young women travellers,
and doubtless a better method of
publicity viii be devised there.
A sensible suggestion has been
offered to have this and similar work
placed in the hands of the Tfayelfs'

Living.

1t has been laid down as
economic law that lowered cost
gained through simple change
in supplying your wants, car
ries with it no loss of pleasure
in consumption.
This means you can often
times lower your cost of living
by thoughtful buying-for ex-
ample: Mercerized silk serves
the purpose of its users and
gives as much pleasure as the
more expensive kinds. A sew
ing machine stripped of its
nickel plate and artistic finish
Obut with the same mechan-
ISM costs less than the orlgi-
nal article. A coat lined with
cambria costs less than one
lined with high grade silk, yet
the wear is practically the
same.
You should think not only Of
what can be saved as between
different articles and their
uses, but as between differen.
stores and buying seasons as
well. Read the advertisements
in THE TELEGRAM closely
and constantly every day and
they will help you keep your
cost of living down to a mini
mum. They will direct you
