POSTAL CARDS GROW in USE
THEN


Forty-five years ago today
the worlds first postal card
was issued by the Austrian
post office officials at Vienna.
The first in the United States
appeared four years later, aft
err public demand forced this
government concession. The
principal official argument
against the postal card was
that such open communication
offered an excellent opportuni-
ty for the writer of libel to ex-
ercise his nefarious work.
Official opposition met with
popular clamor in other coun-
tries, and various were the
methods to force governments
to follow Austria's lead. An
English army officer in India.
where he missed the postal
card he. had become accus-
, toned in England, forced
the Indian government to ca
pitulate. The government had
claimed there was no popular
demand for postal cards. The
officer set out to demonstrate
that there was. He had pos
tai cards bearing his own
name and rank printed. and
used them entirely for his own
correspondence, of course
obeying the postal regulations
by affixing stamps equal to let
ter rate postage. He induced
his friends to follow his eX-
ample. The resulting flood
of postal cards aroused the
government. The army Off
Ger was ordered to discontinue
his cards. He replied that IL
he chose to write messages on
a piece of cardboard instead
of on sheets of paper, the post
office authorities could not
compel him to enclose the
card in an envelope. The le-
gal advisers of the government
sustained his claim. and India
was forced to adopt the postal
card, reducing the rate to a
half of the letter postage.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES
Items Of Interest to Friends and
Patrons of our Schools.


Public school teachers and univer-
sity professors may now get accurate
information on salary schedules in
force in all parts of the United States,
thanks To Uncle Sam, who has sup
piled the statistical experts, and to
the National Education association,
which has supplied the funds of the
pay rolls of every city, town, village
and rural community in this country.
The Tangible Rewards of Teach
ing" is the subject of the new pub
LEGATION supplying this information for
teachers and school officials. 1T is
known officially as United States bu
reau of education bulletin No. $50,
and it is now ready for free distribu
ton to all teachers and educators
who make a written request Of United
States Commissioner OF Education i.
r. ClaXton.
This information on the manner
and methods of various communities
in helping Woodworking teachers to
meet the increasing cost of living has
been complied by James c. Boykin,
editor of the bureau Of education, and
by Miss Roberta King, who has been
in charge of the statistical work on
more than 400 pages of salary tables
in the new bulletin exclusive of COM
pilation of state laws relating TO
teachers salaries. The committee of
the National Education association,
for which the new bulletin was COM
piled, consisted of Joseph Swain,
chairman; Robert c. Brooks, eXecu-
tive secretary: Ernest G.. Moore. David
b. Johnson, Harlan Updegraff, Grace
G. Strachan, Margaret Haley and Jas.
Ferguson.
Mr.. Boykin and Miss King have
gathered much information without
making any attempt to draw conclu-
sions or institute comparisons. The
tables are arranged in such simple
form that the reader can easily do
this for himself or herself. The gov
eminent experts, by grouping infor-
nation and through the careful ar
rangement of figures, managed to do
almost the impossible, and have made
statistics interesting.
The governments new bulletin
shows that the highest salary paid
to a school superintendent is $10,-
600, which is given to the superinten-
dent of public schools Of New York
city, Boston, Chicago and Cincinnati,
and the lowest school salary is drawn
by the head of a little one-teacher
colored school down in Carroll coun-
ty Miss. This colored school teach

Mans Best Fricnd

"A mans best friend nowadays is
generally his wife. and a woman's best
friend her husband said Dean Inge,
addressing the audience at the annual
service Of the Guild Of Freeman Of the
City Of London on the 9th.
The decline of friendship between
man and man was probably partly due
to modern life" said the dean. 'In
the old, long, leisurely days, friends
used to stay one or two months to-
gether. Now it is two nights. and we
always catch the first morning train
on the third day"

Tailored Shirtwaists

The strictly tailored shirt has re-
turned to favor. The new models
have novelty collars and cuffs, how
ever, and the materials cover wider
range of weaves than formerly. Not
only are the firmer materials employ
ed i'm these tailored waists, such as
handkerchief linen, batiste. percale.
etc. but soft silks and chiffons are
also used.
When crepe de chine, chiffon or net
is employed the basic lines of the
tailored shirtwaist are retained, but
the collar and cuffs are more of a
novelty character, and fancy buttons
and grouped pleatings i'm the fronts or
side backs are employed.

The SurpIicc Effect

A compromise between the semi
fitted styles and the blouse effects is
the surplice waist with adjustable
crossover ends. Different effects in
this waist are created by varying the
arrangement of the crossover pieces in
front. If they are drawn tightly a
fitted appearance is given. and where
a softer line across the bust is desired
the surplice ends are crossed loosely.
Thus the new seasons styles are modi-
fled to suit the conservative consumer

New Effects in Waists
Semi-Ftted Styles Now Being Shown. Return of
Tailored Cut

The latest fashion tendencies indi-
cate the discontinuance Of the loose
effect in blouses and shirtwaists. The
separate waist, whether dressy or
plain, must fit smoothly over the bust
and be drawn snugly in at the waist
line.
In the dressy models many eX-
treme styles are seen. Some of these
show the semi-fit, while others are
finished to wear on the outside of the
skirt. In either case, the figure cur
YES are suggested in the fronts and to
further emphasize the fitted idea the
girdles are drawn i'm sufficiently at the
waist To slightly outline the figure.

Cherry Ice

Stem and stone a quart of cherries,

squeeze the cherries through a vege-

To this add the juice of a lemon, a
pint of water and the unbeaten whites
of three eggs. Turn all into freezer

ed.

NEW YORK, May 2-How many fans ever stop to think about the business management of big base ball clubs?

 The baseball magnate, so called Is regarded in most cases as a cor pulent person. florid of face and rol ling in wealth. He generally is pie tured in the minds eye as sitting back complacenly while his clerks count his money and set aside his profit But as a matter of fact, the owner of a bah club, if his team can not get out of the Slough of Despond usually turns out to be a gloomy indt yidual who sends good money after bad in a frantic effort to turn the tide. And with the invasion of the major league circles by the new Federal League, there are certain to be more of the latter class of mag mates than of the former
