SOME OF THE THINGS SUPERIN-
TENDENT WILSON HAS STOOD
FOR DURING HIS ADMIN
ISTRATION.

/. Immediately after going into OF
fee he established a tenure system
for teachers in the state schools, pro
viding that all teachers be nominated
by the President Of the Institution in
which they are to serve and holding
such President responsible for the re-
suits. thus eliminating political inf1u-
ence and assuring efficiency and har-
mnny. The harmony and cooperation
in the state schools today testify
TO the wisdom of this policy.
2. The improved conditions OF the
rural schools are due to the deep
interest manifested in their behalf
They show an increase in the average
daily attendance Of 10 per cent with
better and more proficient teachers,
and large increase in consolidated
schools.
3. He has brought about a condi
tion which guarantees to every teach
or par value for his warrant. Only
three counties have failed to comply
with this law. Every assurance has
hcen given that when schools open
noyt September there VIII be few
school districts, II any, which will
.'low teachers warrants TO be dis
counted. This, in addition to an in
~reaeed average salary. as shown by

-anies that would profit at the ey-
rense Of the state and has insisted
hat al books made for the state of
Oklahoma should bear the union label.

each end: one small railroad spike;
one part of a butcher knife, about two
inches long, the iron of which had
been covered with a wood handle; one
larger half of a teaspoon handle; thir-
ty pieces of glass ranging from a frac-
tiOn of an inch to two inches in length,
and one inch in width twelve brass

Oklahoma City, June 24.-Radical
revision Of road work through Okla

roadwork to the counties as units Adj
vocates of the plan claim this will
make for greater efficiency and uni
formity. 1t is said opposition has
chiefly been made by township offic-
ers, who should be eliminated under
the plan.
Another proposal, which is expected
to meet both strong opposition and
approval, is a so cent per horsepower
tax on all automobiles, and conss-
quent elimination of state, county and
city taxes on such vehicles, the tax to
be used for road Improvement

report said the Mormon church was
ineligible because it placed the Book
