Ruth always had the blues after Eve

INSTRUCTORS ARE NEEDED.
J. S. Bureau of Education Appeals
for Agricultural Teachers.

The United States bureau of educa-
ton has issued an appeal for agri-
cultural teachers in high schools. The
bureau incidentally pointed out that
while the salaries Of the majority of
male teachers in high schools averaged
only $500. the teachers of agriculture
were receiving $1,000.
Lack Of teachers" is the explana ton
offered by the bureau as the cause OF
higher remuneration for those who teach
agriculture.
Not only is il found that the average
pay Of instructors in agriculture is
higher than of other teachers" says the
bureau, but that teachers who are able
"a give such instruction in addition 10
regular work command better salaries
than they otherwise would. and are
more likely To be advanced to principal
ships than If they had not specia LIKED

FROG LEGS FOR EVERYBODY.
Bureau of Fisheries Hopes to Make
Them as Plentiful as Eggs.

Frog legs may become as ordinary d
dish as bacon and eggs. if the United
States bureau of fisheries succeeds in the
propagating scheme with which il mas
lust started to experiment. At The bu-
reau's hatchery at Edenion. near the
western end of Albermarle sound. y. c.,
efforts are being made this spring for the
first time to discover how frogs may be
propagated rapidly.
There is much territory III North Caro-
lima Virginia and Maryland. as well as in
some other states where in the opinion
of fish experts. frogs should thrive and
become so plentiful in the course of a few
years that they would become articles OF
common diet.

quirements and without regard to uni
versity requirements or courses used
in other institutions, according to
theories advanced and generally ap.
proved at a recent meeting of the
school board.
Supt. A. c. Davis who is working
out a new course of study, declared
that the curriculum should be design.
ed to meet the needs of students who
will go out into active work at the
end of their school course instead OF
those who will enter an institution
Of higher education.
AS part of the plan credit will be
given for work done by the pupil
outside which properly becomes part
of his education. A boy who secures
work in printing office for part Of
day while he is going to school will
be given credit for it, equal to labor
atory creditor for the same amount Of
work in manual training in the school
building.

INCOME TAX LAW
IS COMPLICATED
Taxes on Local Improvement
Bonds Must be Withheld
At the Source

TACOMA, Nov. 13.-The many com.
plicated questions that have aE san
under the new income tax law are
gradually being adjusted by the of.
ficials Of the internal revenue depart
ment at Washington and instructions
are being sent to the various collec-
tors throughout the country.
One question that has caused con-
siderable difficulty in cities was
whether local improvement bonds
were to be taxed at their source or
whether they were exempt from tax
alton. Several prominent lawyers ex-
pressed directly conflicting opinions
and Collector Millard T. Harrison
wired Washington for instructions.
Collector Harrison has received a
reply which stated that If the improve
ment bonds were a debt of the state
or any political subdivision thereof,
the interest would be exempt from
taxation, but that if the bonds were
lien upon the property benefited, the
interest is not exempted and the tax
will be withheld at it's source.
Another important question that
was settled was the question Of tax
ing the interest on funds that were
held by banks for third parties. The
department has ruled that the banks
are not liable for the tax on interest
due or accruing to their depositors
but that the later must make return
of such interest in their statement
of incomes.

TO HOLD SCHOOL

Board of Education Discusses
Bond Issue for Addi-
tional Schools
SLIGHT INTEREST TAKEN
Hot Lunches to be Served at
Franklin School. List
Of Polling Places

At the meeting of the board of edu-
cation Tuesday night the matter of
issuing bonds for $6O,OOO or $4,000
for the purpose of erecting additional
school houses was discussed but no
action was taken for the present.
The plan of serving hot lunch to
pupils of the Franklin school who
live at distance and who are com.
PEELED to bring a bite to eat at the
noon time, was presented to the
members of the board who endorsed
it. The plan was proposed by the
Franklin Circle of the Parent-Teacher
association and was explained to the
board by the president, Mrs. Charles
NJ. Cloud.
The idea is to furnish hot soup, AMI
some vegetable or some one hot ra-
tion each day, the pupils to pay from
one to two cents for what they eat.
The mothers of the Parent.Teacher
association will provide the lunch
which is to be prepared outside the
school building and carried to the
building at the noon recess.
School district elections will be
held December 6, to elect one member
of the board to succeed DR.. l. r.
Watkins. whose second term expires.
So far three candidates are in the
field: DR.. Watkins. who would sue
ceed himself, Mrs. Mary F. Beimfohr
and Joseph Thomas. the latter run.
ming as a socialist.
When the Importance of the posi-
tion, from both the educational and
financial standpoints, is considered,
the lack Of public interest in school
elections is deplorable. We hear
grumbling enough and to spare about
high taxes. and city expenses. yet lit
tie attention is paid to school district
affairs. the expenditures of which al
most equal those of the city.
At the meeting Tuesday night, the
following voting places and election
officers were designated:
First ward-South Aberdeen school
house. Judges. H. B. Strong, Mrs.
Minnie Judge: Clerk, Mrs. Clara

of the Randall Commercial club, and
endorsement of Frank H. Lamb, for

An association to take contracts with
owners or a holding company of own
ers are the two projects for handling
the land. only valley or productive

The matter was discussed yesterday

ment of a committee of three to con-
slider the undertaking was authoriz.
ed. This committee will be named
