Margaret Haley, business agent for
the teachers. Miss Haley spoke at
Hamlin Park hall
ga lot of trust newspaper publicity
showing up one side of the question
and the school board would be in a
position to refuse the teachers the
automatic increase which they have
coming" declared Miss Haley.
''They say nothing of the kind, but
teachers are expected to realize that
it is the backing they have given the
Teachers Federation against the
Loeb rule which has caused the at
tempt to cut salaries.
''The threat to take away part of
their pay is understood as an at
tempt to force them to back away
from the teachers union"
The meeting at Hamlin Park hall is
answer to a campaign of publicity
started by the Daily News early this
week
Vic Lawson's sheet quoted a mys-
terious trustee who did not are,to
have his name mentioned" who said
that the teachers would not get their
regular automatic increases this
year because the school system could
not afford it.

to divert attention toward the SAL

western railroads in the great area
of the United States and Canada

DEATH RATE FROM WHITE
PLAGUE LOWEST IN UTAH

The death rate In Utah from tuber'
%culosis during the year 1913 was the
lowest of any state in the registration
erea. which takes in about so pei
cent of the population of the United
States. il is stated in the report just
issued by the bureau of census, de
partment of commerce. Not only is
Utah. which is credited with having
the best system of registration in the
country. lowest on the list, but it has
only about one-half the rate which is
held by its nearest competitor, Wash
ington, and about ene-third that of
the general average.
Figures are compiled by the bureau
on a ratio to the 100000 population.
In Utah this was 81, in Washington
70.6 in Michigan ISL Montana
79.9 Wisconsin S3.4, Minnesota 4S.6,
Vermont SS.5, Maine 95.S, Pennsyl-
vania 97.S and New Hampshire 97.S.
Salt Lake also comes in for honors
in this direction among other cities
from which figures were obtained.
The death rate in Salt Lake was AZ
to the 100, ZOO as against 254 in Gin
~cinnati, 253 in New Orleans, 25s in
Los Angeles and 269 in Denver. The
average death rate throughout the
registered area from this is
.127.7.
1T means that some work has been
done since the system OF registration
was established in Utah in 1906"
said DR.. T. B. Betty. secretary of the
state board of health. But it is no
sign to quit work. There is still
much room for Improvement and We
intend TO keep going. Other states
gradually are getting into the regis
tered area. In Illinois a farmer is re-
quired to register the birth of a
blooded calf, but not required to reg

tuberculosis in various forms
claimed 93,431 victims in 1913 OF
which number S0,S12 died from tu-

The rate in Utah" says the cen
sus bureau, lis away below that of
any other state, being only about one
third as high as the rate for the en-
tire registration area.
THE death rates from tuberculosis
OF the lungs are abnormally high
among the white population in both
California and Colorado-167.5 and

TO-DAY Is MOTHERS DAY.

Thank God some of us have an
old-fashioned mother. Not a woman
Of the period, painted and enanieled,
with all her society and
fine dresses, white jeweled hands
that felt the clasp of baby fin
gers, but a dear, old-fashioned moth
er with a sweet voice, eyes into
whose clear depth the love light
shone, and brown hair just threaded
with silver, lying smooth upon her
faded cheek. The hands, worn with
toll, gently guided our steps in
childhood and smoothed our cheeks
in sickness, even reaching out to us
in earning tenderness. Blessed Is
the memory of an old-fashioned mo-
Their. 1t floats to us like the beauti-
full perfume of some wood blossoms.
The music of other voices may be
lost, but the enchanting memory of
hers will echo in our soul forever.
A mother is a mother still,
The hottest thing alive.

LOCAL PAPER BEST
ADVERTISEMENT N TOWN,

A publisher in a western state re-
Gently intimated that some of the
merchants of his town had been busy
ing themselves in an attempt to or
ganize the business men of the town
for the purpose of cutting out all ad-
vertising in the local papers by COM
mon consent on the ground that it
is a useless and worthless expendi-
ture. While we do not believe that
theSe Is the slightest danger of any
such thing ever being done il is in
teresting to speculate on what would
be the consequences If such a thing
should come TO pass, says the Publ
shers Auxiliary.
The local paper is the index OF the
public spirit, financial and moral con-
ditions and the general welfare of
every community and the criterion by
which il is judged by all outside peo-
pie. If any difference this story is
told more strongly in the advertising
columns of the paper than in the
news columns. \ local paper well
patronized BY the local tradesmen
whose advertisements are newsy,
breezy, and in season and mp to date,
telling of their goods and wares
the newest things, the best things,
and their prices. is an infallible in
dication of a good town, publie-spir-
tied people and progressivness OF the
highest type and the best kind. On
the other hand suppose the local mer-
chants do not advertise in the local
papers They must have advertising
to live. 1t follows as a necessity hat
they must take any kind of a cheap
proposition they can get-patent
medicines, whisky ads, m~ail-order dis
plays. gun and bicycle offers-the pa
per presents a sorry appearance. you
read poverty in every line and be-
lhtti inc iiHta lntlt 10 nO tNidtHat
of prosperity (and there is none) and
no public spirit. and the homeseeker
who reads the paper will shun the
town as sure as he would shun the
bubonic plague.
On the other hand. suppose the To-
cal paper should begin whooping it
up for the mail-order houses and tell
the people how much they would save
by patronizing them. How long
would it be before grass would grow
in the streets and half the merchants
would go out of business. You can
readily see there are two sides to this
question.
No worthy newspaper publisher is
willing to consider advertising pa
tronage in the nature of an act of
charity or ever a donation. He
knows, as also does the merchant, that
space purchased at a reasonable price.
rightly and intelligently used is more
than worth the cost. There are few
publishers that do not strive earnestly
TO promote the best interest of every
enterprise or industry in the com
munity. They earn every cent they
get and their service is worth much
to the community. The best
advertisement any town can have is a
real live newspaper we'll patronized
by local people and don't make the
mistake of expecting too much for a
nickel.
