Teachers and Prospective Teachers.

The following changes in the law
were made by the last legislature:
| l. Men are to be exempt from ex-
animation in Domestic Science; women
in Manual Training.
2. A special Teachers Examination
is to be held the last week in August
to which only those who have attended
twelve-weeks Summer School are
eligible.
The following new regulations are
made by the State Board of Education
al Examiners.
/. Normal Training means Peda-
gogy, Agriculture, Manual Training
and Domestic Science.
2. Twelve weeks of satisfactory
work at an approved Summer School
shall exempt one from examination in
Agriculture, Manual Training and Do
nestle Science.
Suggestions:
/ Since the law compels every pub
lie school in the state to offer instruc-
ton in Agriculture, Manual Training
and Domestic Science, every teacher,
unless she has had special training in
thsse subjects, is practically forced to
attend Summer school this year.
2. Those who expect to teach year
from next fall should complete their
twelve weeks Of Normal Training this
summer, and then use the first half of
the Summer school next year to cram
up for examination.
Note that:
l. Miss Blank taught in Fayette
county last year on Second Grade
Certificate at $40. She attended the
Big Five Summer School and secured a
First Grade. This year she gets $53. 40,
a clear gain of $12O.
2. It is not safe to risk Third
grade, as the County Superintendent
in most counties will not register it this
coming year if there are enough First
and Second Grade teachers to fill all the
positions.

VICTORY IS OF GREAT VALUE
Recapture Of Lost Fortress Removes
All Danger Of slav Threat
Against cracow.

London, June AFTER siege OF
three weeks the fortress of Przemysl,
in Galicia, has fallen to the Austrians.
The Russians were in possession a
little more than seventy days.
This news was received in London
with a certain degree of surprise.
While it had been we'll known that
the Russian position at Przemysl was
serious and that the artillery fire OF
the Germanic allies was daily becom-
ing more terrific, the Official announce
ment from Vienna of an Austrian vic
tory was not expected so quickly, par
ticularly in view of the Official state.
ment from Petrograd Monday saying
the Austro. German grip before
Przemysl had been broken and that
the offensive in the great Galician
struggle had passed to the Russians.
The Austrians entered Przemysl af-
ter a hammering with heavy guns
that lasted more than twenty days.
The capitulation of Przemysl must be
ascribed to the effectiveness Of this
artillery onslaught. The occupation
of the fortress by the Austrians will
remove the danger of the Russian
threat against Cracow.
Assault Costs Heavily.
When the Russians starved out the
Austrian garrison at Przemysl, an op-
Grafton which brought them into the
fortress on March %, they did it slow
ly and systematically, conserving the
lives of their men as much as pos.
sible. The method which the Austro-
Germans have been employing recent
ly to accomplish the same end has
been entirely different. Their ex'
;pediture in men and ammunition has
perhaps outdone anything In this war.
not even excepting the German rushes
for Calais and the terrible struggle
along the User river.
The retaking Of the Przemysl for
tress already has been characterized
by British observers - one of the
most remarkable feats Of the war.
Immediately after the surrender of
the Austrian garrison Russians be-
gan westward rush through Galicia
and 1t was predicted that they soon
would overrun both Silesia and the
plains Of Hungary.
A terrific Austro German offensive
was inaugurated. however. the result
of which was to drive the Russians
back to the San and to enable the
Teutonic allies to encircle Przemysl
and attack it from the north and the
southeast.

SUIT AGAINST STEEL
TRUST IS DISMISSED

Trenton, N. j., June 4.-The United
States district court for New Jersey
handed down unanimous decision,
refusing the petition of the federal
government to dissolve the United
States Steel corporation.
As against the government the court
refused all the iniunctions prayed for
by the department Of justice.
AS against the steel corporation the
court held that the committee meet
ings participated in by IS per cent Of
the steel trade Of the country, includ-
ing the steel corporation. subsequent
to the famous Gary dinners of eight
or nine years ago, were unlawful COM
binations to control prices; but IS
these meetings had stopped before the
government fled its complaint in Oc-
tober. 1911, the judges held that there
was no occasion for an injunction.
Washington, June 4.-Distinct sur
prise was evident at the department
Of justice and in government circles
generally when news came that tho
federal circuit court Of appeals at
Trenton had dismissed the govern
ment's suit for dissolution of the Unit
ed States Steel corporation. It is very
likely that the case will be carried to
the United States supreme court.

GOVERNMENT BUYING
SUPPLIES DIRECT
FROM THE FARMER
(By Associated Press.)

ROME, July 30-In an effort to
avoid the manoeuyres of dishonest
spectators, the Italian war office has
Gecreed the addition of the system Of
private contracts for meat supplies to
the armies in the field. The govern
ment proposes to encourage the farm
ing industry by buying direct from the
farmer, distributing the order equita-
bly, through all the provinces of the
kingdom, according to the relative
capacity of local farm lands.
Provincial commissions, each includ-
ing representatives of the military and
agricultural interests and a delegate
from the local chamber of commerce
are to select and buy the stock from
the farmer at the ruling price. In
cases where farmers refuse to sell at
the price fixed, the method followed in
the state requisition of horses will be
applied.
