JAKE LOEB SAYS TEACHERS ARE
GRAFTERS AND SLUGGERS
New York, July 7. Especially -
Jake Loeb, president Chicago board
of education, spoke in the Waldorf
Astoria hotel last night to the de-
partment of school administration of
the National Educational assn.
While Loeb spoke/the audience was
well-behaved except for the rustIing
of pamphlets distributed by young
women at the door of the hall. These
pamphlets stated the side of the Chi
cago Teachers Federation in it's
clash with Loeb. So while Loeb was
speaking his piece many of his lis
teners were looking on literature
showing Loeb's personal record.
THE teachers union interferes
with the discipline and efficiency of
the schools" said Loeb. 1T pOisons
the mind of the young and enthusi-
astic- teachers. The slogan of the
union is not Children first but
Teachers and pay first
The atmosphere was rather in
tense because the delegates held in
their hands a Photographic copy of
the official list which Jake Loeb fur
nished the Chicago Tribune, giving
the ratings and records Of the 60
teachers fired from out of the Chica-
go school system by Loeb and eight
other school trustees June %. On
this list are AZ teachers whose rec
ords are superior" excellent"
good" and fair"
At the top of the pamphlet were
these headlines:

Brightens Lonely Lives

T have been a daily reader of youf good Corner and noting that there arc some lonely and sick people who derive benefit from receiving letters. should bs delighted to have the names of some oi these as I should be only to glad to be able to help brighten their lives. I havA a great number of cancelled stamps and am continually getting more. am a stenographer in 8 downtown office ana should like to have the name of any one desiring them. I also have a great many pieces of silk and ribbon some shut-in might like to make up. Then. I should like the name of a college boy who is poor and desirous of having an attractive room next fall. I shall paint him one or two pictures for his room. LEFTY"
 We have had occasion before this-in. deed, good many occasions-to comment upon the value of the Corner, and. in divers ways, of our large corps of profes- sional stenographers. They are ever on the>alert to impart information and ot the right sort Their general readiness ot respond to the call of distress and by every means at their command to ease the weight of burdens laid upon heart and body merits grateful praise from us all. The writer of the foregoing illus trates the truth of all that have said. Her address awaits the demand of thost she would serve.

Books for Children

II have read so many generous offers in the Corner I should like to contribute share. I have few books of spelling, drawing, and music for youngt children, which anyone may have if she cares to pay the postage. I might suggest. if they care to correspond with me, giving the exact nature and names of them. have a few hundred unframed pictures which may be of use also. A year ago I wrote the Corner suggesting the idea of a correspondence circle. Only one has responded and the pleasure which our small circle of two has given leads me to feel larger one would afford equal enjoyment. Are there not others who would like to join us?
 '--tsA es MADELINE M.''s
 I am pleasing myself to the hearts core by setting out in goodly sort some of the numerous offers of gifts representing treasure house of which few who are not within the charmed circle dream. Vol untary offerings like those enumerated by Madeline and her conferees are the out ward expression of inward graces that honor our common nature Her sugges- tion of the correspondence circle was not thrown away. Witness calls from every quarter for the privilege of writing to and receiving letters from stranger friends.

CONDITION OF JAIL IS COMMENDED BY OATES
State Prison Inspector Says County Bastile in Best Condition in
 Its History

The Jefferson county jail is in better condition than 1t has ever been be- fore, according to a letter from Prison Inspector Dr. w. H. Oates. read before the board of revenue yesterday by Pres ident R. F. Lovelady. Dr. Oates made his inspection of the county Jail July 96 through J. D. Adams of the state in- spector's office, and his report was en- closed with the letter.
 Several Improvements were suggested and were readily carried out At the time of the inspection the jail contained only 12s prisoners, 30 white men, two white women. T negro men and 19 negro women. It is thought that the excellent condition of the jail is largely due to the suggestions and investigations of the last term grand jury, which appointed committee to work with the sheriff in improving conditions. This committee re- ported that they had received co-onAration from SheriH Batson.

Working In Harmony With City Authorities Women Hope to Benefit Sanitary Conditions Says Mrs Graham

said fin eliminating the unhealthy con- ditions. What the women's committee hopes to do is to work harmoniously with the city authorities in devising some method of making Birmingham a perpet- ually sanitary city. We will divide the city into small districts and for each dis trict there will be a head. Each woman who has charge of each of these districts will inspect the premises of every house and lot in her district; she will report whatever deficiency there is in sanitation and recommend its adjustment; at the end of 10 days. she will again visit the district and find out if everything has been done that she has recommended, and if not, why not. This we believe is the only way to get at the very heart and core of the bad sanitary conditions.
 Tt seems to me. also," Mrs. Graham said, that one of the much needed ac- tivities along. these lines is the putting into proper condition of the flush closets that are out of repair and not in good condition. These are as malicious in their infection and as dangerous as the dry closets, and are as great menace to health Often it is not the fault of the landlord; tenants grow careless and get used to things being out of order, and all that sort of thing, and do not realize now they are taking their own lives and the lives of those of their households in their own hands when they permit such unhealthy conditions to exist.
 Birmingham has always to my mind, and am a pioineer 'citizen," Mrs. Gra- ham said," seemed to be city which realized it's naturally beautihul resources and healthfu climate and protected it's health conditions, but I was greatly sur prised when woman who has lived here but a year said to me recently that those of us who had lived here all of our lives didn't realize the terrible sanitary conditions in comparison with other cities as she did, or others who had lived in different localities. This opened my eyes to the situation here and made me feel tremendously the importance of a critical inspection of conditions. I believe that within short time the women's commit tee and the city authorities, together with the citizens sanitation committee, will undoubtedly do a great deal toward read justing conditions and putting Birming- ham in healthy, wholesome condition"

In sepaking Friday of the plans, all d which have not yet been perfected, oi the womens committee in conjunction with the city authorities and the citi- zens' sanitation committee, of which Dr.. Scale Harris is the efficient and capable head, Mrs. Graham said a short time be- fore the meeting at o'clock:
 Tt seems to me that the main thing for us to do is to eliminate as far as pos sible the dry closets and have the garbage removed from the premises. While the present epidemic of typhoid fever has been traced to impure ice cream, at the same time it's spread can be checked and overcome to a great degree by better sanitary conditions. Formerly, there were 13 health inspectors, while today we have only five. This seems a sad commentary upon place the size of Birmingham. We have the garbage removed now once a week from our premises, and in my opinion it should be removed every other day, anyway, if it isn't possible to have 1t done every day Of the 5000 dry clos cts, we find that 5000 of them are inac- cessible to sewerage: the other 2000 are now being put in proper sewer age connection, and at the city hall a demonstrat ton is being made of device be connected with sewerage, and if it works out practically, I hope it will be installed.
 ''The city has done it's best considering the terrible lack of funds" Mrs. Graham
