An exchange says that the New York board of educa-
Jon has recognized as few school boards have recognized
that the expenses of public school teachers are con-
1tany going up just the expenses of day aborers,
clerks professional Office holders The board of
superntendents Of New York has recommended to the
board Of education that the pay of the lowest salared
teachers in the public elementary schools be raised from
S720 $500 per year for the first three years. and that
higher pay be given to other groups of teachers The
board will adopt the recommendation.
Boards of education slowly beginning to realize
hat if beefsteak costs more for coal miner it also costs
more TO teacher They are recognizing slowly that
school teacher as we'll as q carpenter or mechanic
pays for -four than he did several years ago. They
have to the conclusion that clothes and bacon and
hats and shoes and gloves and practically everything else
IN the category costs than it did few years ago
and that it more for school teacher as for the
clerk or factory worker
If more school inspectors and members Of boards of
education realize that public school teacher should
get at least much money garbage collector or as
street worker, we will almost be tempted to believe
thai the school boards are composed of men and
with some grey matter.
The public school teacher cannot live on compliments
md soft words and little praise from an occasional par
ent It takes something more than words to pay the
grocer in these days.

SAVE $500, 900 TONS OF COAL.

Power Plants Follow Recommends
tions Of Fuel Administration.
Three and half million tons of
coal have been saved in the past six
months by industrial power plants
which have adopted the conservation
recommendation of the fuel admin
istration. A national saving of 25,-
100000 tons annually is possible by
universal adoption of the recommend
ations, the fuel administration esti-
mated.
Some plants reported to the fuel
administration saving of coal
amounting to as high as 25 per cent,
while the average saving was report
ed as from 10 to Is per cent. The
largest savings have been in Massa-
chusetts, Pennsylvania, Connecticut,
Illinois, New York, Missouri, Michi-
gan, Minnesota and Wisconsin.

MORE TROOPS CALLED.

Gen Crowder has ordered 29O.77S drafted men to
report to the environments between November II and 81
This is said to be of the largest mobilization calls
issued It includes large number of men who would
have been required report before had not been for
the influenza epidemic from which the environments suf-
fered during the past few weeks.
This cali is significant indicating does the govern
ments purpose to 60 ahead with the mobilization of its
full military military forces regardless Of peace talk

THE FOURTH WAR LOAN.

The final figures on the fourth Lib
erty lean show that It was oversub-
scribed by S866.A16,SOO. When it Isl
remembered that this flotation of So
GOO 600, 200 in bonds was the largest
transaction Of the kind ever under
taken in the history Of the world,
that is was done in the face of the
influenza epidemic, with heavy tax
bill impending in congress and with
continued allied successes on the
western front which were calculated
to stimulate the impression that this
great sum would not be needed, the
showing is marvellous.
Every Federal reserve district re-
turned an oversubscription. The Bos-
ton district led by subscribing 1854
per cent of its quota, and the Rich
mond district, in which Washington
is located, was second with subscrip-
tons of 1888 per cent of its quota.
The San Francisco district was at
the foot Of the list, but even so it
went over the top with 5.97 per cent
in excess Of the amount allotted to it.
Another gratifying feature of the
loan was that more than 100000
people participated in it. This is in
excess of one-ffth OF the entire pop
ulation of the country, and It is pos
sible that it eventually will be found
that the total number of subscribers
reaches 100000. The third loan
was taken by 18,30O,OOO people. In
this great increase in the number of
subscribers is found evidence of the
general enthusiasm throughout the
country in support of the war and
the willingness to place all the wealth
and resources of the nation at the
disposal of the government to help
bring it to a successful decision.
There will be fifth Liberty loan,
and possibly sixth, in the opinion
of the treasury officials, who believe
it will be impossible to finance the
activities of the government, even
though there is a cessation of hostili-
ties, upon current revenues. The
next flotation will come in the spring,
and Secretary McAdoo announces
that to this will be applied the over
subscription on the loan just foated.
From present indications the war may
be at a close by the time the next
bond issue is undertaken, and the
representatives of the powers may
be gathered around the peace table
deciding upon the terms whish Shall
be imposed upon the vanquished.
This condition no doubt will make
| it more difficult to sell bonds than it
WAS while the fighting was in prog
ress and the final issue of the war
remained undetermined. But from
the generous and patriotic response
which the American people have
made in each of the four national
loans to date, it may be assumed that
they will come forward with their
money in the future and do their full
duty by their country.-W Washington
