How women have advanced IRON
the educational ranks TO the highest
administrative positions in the public
schools is interestingly revealed in
figures just compiled by the United
States bureau OF education. Four
states-Colorado, Idaho. Washington
and Wyoming have women at the
head of their state school systems.
and there are now 495 women county
Ill perintendents in the United States
nearly double the number OF ten
years ago.
In some states women appear to
have almost a monopoly OF the higher
positions in the public school system.
Wyoming has woman state super
intendent; the deputy state superil-
tcndent Is n woman; and OF the four

are directed educationally by women,
In Montana, where there are thirty
counties, cnly one man is reported

UNPRECEDENTED HIGH
TIDES IN THE PACIFIC

able men and quantities of material
for the construction Of temporary
bullSheads were gathered today along
the waterfronts Of southern California
beach resorts from Santa Barbara to
Long Beach to combat the effects of
the unprecedented high tides now run
ming.
The huge waves yesterday morning
destroyed property valued at from
$4,000 to $3.50, 600 and the tides today
were expected to be even higher than
those of the day before It was beIiev-
ed, however. that the emergency pre-
parations made during the night to
protect the waterfronts would prevent
further serious damage.
