THE CROW'S-NEST


One of the early morning sounds
that is a reminder Of the coming of
winter is the rafting of coal down a
coal chute into the cellar. The first
one was heard last week in an uptown
locality. Someone who mad the price
was taking advantage of the hard coal
rate for this time of the year.
Good crop reports have their disad-
v%antages as well as advantages. The
vanguard of the army Of solicitors who
have things to sell, goods, stocks, and
such like will soon make its appear
ance after crop selling time and offer
all kinds of inducements to get a
share of ones money. Legitimate
trading is all right but it pays to use
discrimination in ones buying or in
the spending of money for every new
thing that comes along. There will
come beggars of all kinds and not a
few fakirs. 1t will pay to rigidly in
vestigate all new propositions and to
turn away fakirs and unworthy beg
CARS.
Very often a town or village is judg-
ed wrongly by the number of people
seen on the streets or the lack of it.
Sometimes a town is pronounced a
dead one because few people are seen
on the sidewalks during the busy part
of the day when the fact is that every
one is employed in some useful occu-
patton and there is no loafng around.
The test of a prosperous town is in
the comparative number of persons
tie blows and after working hours at
night. Then it is that most of the
trading is done and the busy hum Of
business is at its height. There is a
certain amount of moving about by
those who have necessary business to
transact but a town is not to be judged
a live one entirely by the number of
people on the sidewalks, especially if
a large proportion of the same saun-
ter about or loaf on the APP
p~earances are deceiving in many cases.
If a proper proportion of the money
that goes out Of almost every town in
the way of outside investments should
be spent at home for permanent i'm
provements or in judicial investments
it would make a vast difference in
the building up of such community.
Every dollar invested at home adds to
the value of the other dollars already
invested. AS a town grows each in
vestment grows in proportion. Every
dollar sent away for outside invest
ment builds up the other community
and defeats it's purpose so far as ones
Brookings is doing well this year in
building homes and the results of such
activity is already apparent in every
line of endeavor. The next place for
improvement is on Main street.

Urge Board of Education
to Repeal the Bylaw
That Bars Them.
PROTEST AGAINST
BLOW AT WOMEN
Bill for Half.Fare for School
Children Meets Opposition
In Senate Hearing.
By HENRIETTA RODMAN.

More than a hundred OF the most
prominent feminists in the city in
dor,ed the following resolution asst
evening and forwarded it to President
Churchill OF the Board OF Education:
I'VE believe that the bylaw which
forbids the appointment of married
women as teachers, unless their hus-
bands are incapable Of earning ny
ing, is an injury TO women, to chill
dren and to the community. !.
I'VE. therefore, urge its repeal ana
ask that the appointment OF women as
teachers in the New York public
schools shall be determined hereafter
by efficiency, and not by celibscy or
the condition of their husbands
Don't YOU think that sounds reasons.
BILE? am wondering what the Board
OF Education will do with it at It's next
meeting. The majority of the Board OF
Education has been consistently anti
feminist for the last ten years, at least.
They opposed equal pay for women
till the Legislature compelled them to
grant it. They discharged women
teachers who married until the Court
Of Appeals stopped them. They dis.
charged women for motherhood until

A hearing was held in Albany Tues
day on Senate bill SO, the school chill
dren's half-fare bill.
The chairman of the Public Service
Commission, before whom the hearing
vas held. opposed the bill on the
ground that it would force the trans.
portation companies to perform acts OF
charity. Representatives OF the com
panies themselves protested that the
passage of the measure would result
in confiscation of their property.
Friends of the bill urged that the
companies would not need to increase
their equipment, as the school children
do not travel in the hours when the
rush is greatest; that thousands Of dol
lars would be earned by using cars to
their capacity at the children's hours;
and above all that many thousands OF
children now unable TO get training OF.
fered only in certain schools would
thus be better equipped for citizenship.
So IL was shown that the transporta-
ton companies could without serious
loss perform an important social SER
vice.
Will they?
