WILL STAND PAT
School Board Will Not Grant
Teachers Further Raise.
Further Action Must Come
Over It's Head.

Topeka high school was fairly buzz
ing this morning with buzzing teachers
of the city who met in an executive
session to consider the increase in sal
airy which the board of education has
failed to grant them.
The teachers association this
morning took active steps in circulat-
ing the petitions among the business
men of the city. which wifi later be
presented to the school board. The
teachers, according to R. w. Cop
pedge, president of the High School
guild, will leave the matter entirely to
the judgment of the voters and Will
work all summer if necessary to secure
a fair percentage of names for their
petitions
The school board feel that the raise
requested by the association 10 too
much and that the teaching schedule
does not need such radical revision, ac-
cording to L. M. Jones, president of
the board.
For the last several years Topeka
teachers have been receiving very at
tractive salaries" Mr.. Jones said this
morning Teachers of Topeka are in
better circumstances than they realize
| The raise" he said, has been offered
them in the form of a bonus. The
amount was just and fair, according to
| the ideas of the school board. in the
| face of the existing circumstances. The
| teachers have expressed their disap-
| prevail of the offer and have taken
matters in their own hands IL they
| can arrange the proposed raise over
| the heads of the board" he declared,
| they are entirely welcome to it.
1.-The school board has taken action
| for the next year and by custom this
action will not be changed" he stat
ed. THE teachers, with their associa-
| ton, may follow whatever course they
| choose he continued. but the school
board will make the ultimate decis-
| ion"
Wichita. according to Mr.. Coppedge,
has just completed revised schedule
| of salaries for the teachers which rails
| ed the standard S135 per year. while
| Topeka is still laboring under
| schedule determined and esta blished
seven years ago.

THE HOUSEHOLD
Canning With Less Sugar.
Edited by Anne Rittenhouse.

No doubt you are already meditat-
ing on the subject of summer can
ming and your thoughts probably go
something like this. In the face of
the present Highland always soaring
higher-cost of living, you want to do
all you can to turn your own time to
account by way of preparing mex
pensive foods for winter. If you can
economic by canning your own fruit,
you want to do it. Yet, you reason.
sugar is very high. 1t may be less by
winter time or before all the canned
fruit is consumed. If this turned out
to be the case, wouldn't it be too bad
to have spent SO much of an outlay
on buying sugar at its present high
price?
Well, there are two answers to this
objection.
In the first place. fruit is SO much
cheaper in season than it, is out of
season, that it does pay even when
sugar is high, to can it and other
wise preserve it for winter use. Then,
too, if you have to pay a high price
for sugar, so 90 the Gamers. And
they will charge accordingly when
winter comes.
The second answer is this: Sugar
is not needed in canning. And, tho
it adds very materially to the food
value of the fruit and is needed when
l.Ie Irult is TO be USED as a dessert, 1t
is not actually needed in the canning
process. The old idea was that the
sugar did the preserving. The new
idea is that sterilization kills the or
ganisrns that might make the fruit de-
cay. With perfect sterilization, canned
fruits may or may not be sweetened.
OF course, in the case of marina ladies'
and jams, that are not sealed closely.
the sugar does do the preserving, but
with ordinary canned fr-lIit tho Sroar
is not needed. If you have reason to
believe that the price of sugar will
drop before you need to use the fruit,
Just put them up now and add the
sugar later CT when the fruit is eaten.
If you want to know how to can
frult without using sugar. there is a
very good bulletin on the subject is
sued by the department of agriculture
that you might read to advantage But
any up to date book on household can
ming Will tell you exactly how to can
fruit by means of sterilization There
are steamers on the market especially
designed for this kind of canning, or
you may devise one for yourself by
means of a clothes boiler. According
to this method Of canning, the fruit is
first skinned and immersed first in
boiling water and then in cold Then
it is placed in the jars. Boiling water
is then added and the rubbers placed
around. Then the jars are placed in
the steamer and the steaming. steril-
izing process goes on for about fifteen
minutes, according to the kind of
| equipment used.
! Yes, it is a fact that any fruit can
be kept perfectly well without an
ounce of sugar. And the equipment
necessary for this kind of canning is
so slight as to make it well worth
while when you are canning for a
i large family.

TARIFF AND POLITICS
They Cannot Be Separated, Says W. S.
Culbertson, at C. of C.

Tariff can never be taken out of
politics. if one takes the word politics
in its true sense-the science of gov
eminent. Such was the statement
made to members of the Chamber of
Commerce this noon by W. S. Culbert-
son of Emporia, a member of Presi-
dent Wilson's tariff commission
But if one looks upon politics in its
mistaken, twentieth century meaning,
the manipulation of government
functions to serve private interests,
politics may be separated from the
tariff under the plan of operation out
lined for the tariff commission This
was the declaration of Mr.. Culbertson
But tariff must always remain a
government function. The object of
the tariff commission, as explained by
Mr.. Culbertson. is to make it truly
nation wide proposition, not leaning
toward private, or manufacturing in
terests any more than toward the
needs of the federal treasury or the
rights of the producer and consumer
For that object, the commission was
created. the speaker declared. He
described the business of the com
mission is to produce scientific facts
on the tariff for the consumption of
legislators preparing for the enact
ment and enforcement of tariff laws

Der of Commerce

four objects that are apparently con-
cealeds batteries as recorded by the
camera, only one contains real guns.
The others are set up especially for
the benefit of enemy photographers.
The camera is only one instrument
of modern warfare in which a highly
perfected optical glass is the essential
factor. Field glasses and telescope
rifesights are other common examples.
The Germans had a great superiority
in these instruments in the beginning
of the war, but the allies quickly put
themselves on an equal footing.
The remarkable performance of
long-range naval guns is based on OPP
teal instruments of beautiful delicacy
and precision. Naval range finders
are sometimes built more than thirty
feet long. Periscopes as used both on
land and sea are based on the use of
high-grade glass. tho the need for
great perfection in these instruments
is not so pressing.
1t is evident that in developing
processes for making our own optical
glass of the highest quality we have
taken an important step toward indie
pendent military efficiency

BAKERS IN COMPLAINT
They Object to Labelling and Wrap
ping Loaves of Bread.

Kansas bakers are coming to To-
peka Wednesday to lay their COM
plants before the state board of
health. They will offer complaints
concerning the order for wrapping all
loaves at the bakery and will also pro-
test against enforcement of the law
compelling a weight label on all bread
packages.
Officers of the state bakers asso-
citation will lay their troubles before
the state board. Recently complaints
have been received concerning the
failure of certain bakers to wrap their
loaves as required by the board of
health. They contend that they are
required to meet an extra expense
without receiving additional returns.
Another source of trouble-in fact
the big trouble just now-is the law
requiring bakers to label the wrap
pers with a statement as to weight
The bakers Contend that the fluctua-
lions in prices of flour prohibit the
making of uniform or standard loaves.
During certain periods, it is asserted.
the 1O-cent loave are heavier or light
err. depending on the market price OF
flour For that reason the bakers
want exemption from enforcement OF
the provisions of the law. The law has
been on the statute books four years.
but has not been observed by all the
Kansas bakers according to INFORM
alton sent to the board of health.
