declared any amount the State ex-
pended for education would come back
to the State directly in better men and
women.
Or. Harter. in answer TO the critic
ism that the woman's college plans
had been developed IN a short space
of time. said that he had outlined all
most the Identical plan incorporated
in the bill more than two years ago.
Mr.. Derby said that the State
Grange for years had been advocating
that the girls be offered the same edu-
catlonal advantages in this State as
the boys He asserted that IL was
incumbent upon members Of the
Legislature. not on the advocates Of
the plan to determine a method Of
financing the proposition.
Professor Twitmyer made an elo-
quent plea for the new college as a
preparatory place for teachers in the
States public schools. He said that
many OF the teachers now employed
were teaching on permits issued by
the State Board of Education since
they were unable to pass the boards
examinations. and It had been neces-
sary to grant them temporary permits
that schools might not be compelled

Il was unjust TO provide educational

Mr.. Reinhardt asked how long It
would be before it would be necessary
to have another bond issue for the
college Mr.. Johnson replied that il
was not expected that increased stu
dents would cause a greater outlay Of
money for six years. Mr.. Johnson
volunteered the statement that the
trustees were expecting to save
enough out Of the S125.000 bond issue
to run the college from September
1914 until an appropriation could be
made by the legislature Of 1915. he
said that $4,000 a year for two years
would be asked Of the session OF 1915
and $4,000 a year Of the session OF
1917. He asserted that Mr.. A. d.
Warner on Saturday had inquired oil
banks in Wilmington whether a state
bond issue for the college would be
dangerous and that not a single ma
tional bank. trust company or saw
ings bank had said that such an issue
would be dangerous.
Senator Furniss said he thought
the matter had been discussed suf-
fciently so that every Senator knew
how 70 vote intelligently.
Mr.. Relnhardt announced that he
would be unable to vote for the bill
so long as il authorized a state bond
issue He asked Mr.. Johnson what
officials at the banks had given Mr..
Warner his information. The reply
was that persons at the banks had so
informed him.
Mr.. Reinhardt said that officials OF
banks had been pointing out to him
the danger Of a state bond issue for
an experiment He said that If an
amendment could be made to the bill
so that $4,000 could be appropriated
out of the current funds each for five
years, or If funds could be realized
by the sale of securities from the
states surplus of 100000, he would
favor the bill.
After President pro tenn. Marshall
had announced that the bill was lost
Mr. Reinhardt moved that the vote be
reconsldered and the bill recommitted
remarlxing that he did not wish to
see IL lost in this way.

his was a case of suicide, an inquest

SHOP SALE IS i.
Held At PALAMA

Another of the series of shop
sales" which have been conducted
from time to time under the auspices
of the workers of the Palama Settle
ment, was held yesterday afternoon
from two until five o'clock in the Pa
lama gymnasium These sales have
been held primarily for the benefit
of the residents of the Palama dis
lrict, not with the idea of under
selling the local downtown mer-
chants, but for providing the people
with useful articles at as low a price
as possible.
The shop sale" idea originated last
year near Christmas time when the
settlement workers conceived the plan
of buying at wholesale from the local
merchants a large quantity Of food
stuffs, clothing, cooking utensils and
other articles and selling these to the
residents of the district at a figure
a little larger than the wholesale
price The local merchants have been
very generous with their cooperation
in the work and have greatly assisted
those in charge of the work. Some
thing entirely different was intro
duced at the shop yesterday after
noon Besides having the varied as
sortment of supplies on sale, the
workers conducted a demonstration
table" where the buyers were shown
how to prepare different kinds of
canned goods in an appetizing man.
per. Canned salmon, probably the
greatest seller in the timed goods
line, was shown prepared in dozen
different manners. as we'll as other
canned edibles. All articles at the
snop are bought with settlement
money. the buyers paying cash at the
bank" for the printed currency. SO
great was the success of the shop
yesterday that the workers of the set
tIement are planning another to be
held in the near future.
