larger maintenance revenues.
Teachers-Of the IS teachers in
the parish, Sc or AZ per cent are
graduates Of state institutions or
other schools Of equal rank; 20 or
"a per cent hold first grade certifi-
Gates; Is or Is per cent hold Sec
ond grade certificates, while only 3
per cent Of the teaching corps hold
third grade certificates. AZ per cent
Of these teachers are working longer
than the first year in their present
positions. The above facts speak
eloquently OF the teachers of this
parish. 1t is truly remarkable that
the superintendent has been able to
procure so many we'll qualified teach
ers and retain their services for more
than year with only a seven-month
term.
A definite salary schedule Is adj
hered to, one feature Of which pro-
vides for ten dollar per month in
crease for all teachers who work ten
years or longer in the parish. This
salary schedule contains several
splendid features, but is lacking in
certain respects designed to stimu-
late the improvement of the teachers
in service. These points we're dis
cussed with the parish superintend-
ent.
General-The finances of the par
ish have materially increased within
the past two years, as is indicated by
the following taxes voted: Five
mills for maintenance and a $4,000
bond issue in the first ward; two and
a half mills for maintenance; i've
mills for maintenance and q $500
bond issue in the fifth ward; two and
a half mills maintenance In the 9Th
ward: three mills maintenance n
one-haf Of the tenth ward: five mills
maintenance and a $4,000 bond issue
in the remainder of the same ward.
This covers the entire parish with
special taxes. The school authord-
ties are to be highly commended tor
not calling upon the people to vote
local district taxes, to which there
are many serious objections. The
ward represents a larger area and
means more equitable distribution
of the tax burden. At the same
time, it is evident that a single par
ish-wide tax of uniform rate would
be a great improvement over even
these ward taxes. We therefore rec
ommend that Nthis matter be fully
and persistenly set before the people
of st. Tammany parish until they
come to appreciate its superior value
and are ready to replace existing
taxes with one covering the entire
parish.
In conclusion, the body OF this re-
port as we'll as the preceding SUM
mary indicate the splendid progress
which has characterized the develop
ment of the school system In st.
Tammany parish. While there are
many things yet to be done. we can
not fail to recognize that the adj
vancement during the past two years
has been fully as great - could
possibly be expected. For this con-
dition the people are under debt to
a school board composed Of excellent
men and a superintendent of unusual
ability.
We were accompanied on certain
days by Messrs. Millar and Kale.
progressive members OF the school
board. To these gentlemen. as we'll
as to the parish superintendent. we
are under obligations for pleasant
and profitable tour of the parish.

Recently a man came into our

MULFORD MARKS UP
new TRACK RECORD
Dario Resta Shorn of Laurels
by Smiling Ralph at Wheel
of Converted Hudson
Super-Six.

Ralph Mulford, driving Hudson
Super-Six, broke the American speed
way record for 150 and 200 miles at
the Chicago races, clipping twelve sec
onds from Dario Resta's time, which
formerly stood as the fastest 200 miles
ever driven by a motor car" said Guy
L. Smith. "Mulford averaged l04 miles
an hour. The feat OF the super-six
and its great driver is all the more
remarkable from tine fact that the Chi.
cago speedway is not the fastest OF
American motordomes and few exist
ing records were made on it.
"Motor experts attribute this great
est 200 miles motor performance to
the endurance of the super-six. That
quality was the chief factor which con-
tributed to the record-smashing per-
formance, for the super-six racing
specials are not rated speedy cars, as
racing cars go. There are many racing
cars which have more speed. The su-
per-six racers, by scientific tests, can
exceed rate of l04 miles by very
little. But they are able to maintain
the fullest limit of their speed for
hour after hour. When other and
faster cars are. forced to the pits on
account Of engine trouble the SUPER
skies keep going.
"Mulford's time for 200 miles was
| hour, S. minutes, II and a frac-
tion seconds. The great Italian,
Resta, from whom Mulford and the
supcr-six lifted the crown, made the
200 miles in hour, IS minutes, 23
and fraction seconds. Mulford's ad-
vantage in actual competition would
be little more than third Of mile"

Head in Charge of Oakland Car
For the Territory Around Omaha

Among the recent activities along
the automobile row is the announce
ment OF the Oakland Motor Car COM
pany OF Pontiac, Mich, to the effect
that they will establish a direct fac
tory branch in Omaha, effective
July !.
w. H. Head, who has for a number
OF years been in charge Of the auto
mobile department OF the Lininger
Implement company, has been ap-
pointed manager OF the new branch
and will assume his new duties with
the opening of the branch.
The territory under control OF the
Omaha branch will embrace all OF
Nebraska, the western part of Iowa
and the southern portion Of South
Dakota. ....
Owing to the increased production
at the Oakland factory it will be pos
sible for them to supply Omaha with
approximately twice the number OF
cars during the next season than have
been sent into the territory during
the last season. Mr.. Head is conf
dent that there will be no trouble in
moving this number, as the Lininger
Implement company has been way
oversold for months.
Mr.. Head has been with the Linin-
ger Implement company for the last
thirty years and has had charge OF
the automobile department since 1908,
at which time the Lininger people en-
tered the automobile arena. Prior to

Saxon Trail Blazer ..
Opens Mountain Road

In addition to blazing the trail for
the proposed National Boundary
Highway over the Cascade mountains
east from Spokane, the Saxon Road
ster trail maker broke the way for
summer motor traffic across the
mountains.
Two feet Of snow, the tail end Of
the winters covering, was encounter
ed in the mountains and the roadster
was the FIRST car to pass it, making
the narrow, treacherous paths without
difficulty.
Now that the Saxon trail blazer
has turned eastward it is expected
that exceptional time will be made
in mapping the boundary highway
along the Canadian border. Summer

conditions and the drivers Of the car
do not anticipate the slow travel that
bad roads caused in the carly stages
