school year, claiming the necessity
therefor on account of the high cost
of living. Some members of the
Board maintain that the Board of
Education is without authority to
change contracts already entered into,
even if they should so see fit. The
question is, has the School Board
authority to change or alter the con-
tracts already made, whether to raise

Dear Sir:
You state that your school district
has hired teachers for the year 1917
1913 and has written contracts with
them for a specified sum. You ask
whether the Board has the right to
increase the pay of their teachers
during the time in which their con-
tracts are in force. In my opinion
your question is answered in the
negative. The relationship establish
ed between the teachers and the
school district is a contractional one
and each party is bound by the terms
of the contract. The board could not
cut down the teachers pay nor could
the teachers require the Board to in
crease the compensation. A school

ton of a teacher and paying her an
amount in addition to the contract
price would thereby be making a

United Mine Workers
Asked To Be Loyal

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 16.-Demand
for the elimination of /. w. WIS and
pro- Germans from the ranks Of Unit
ed Mine Workers of America, was made
in the convention Of the miners here to-
cay.
John P. White, former president of
the unioa, and Federal Fuel Administra'
tor Garfield and Labor Secretary VIII
son, in messages to the convention, urged
the miners to fight internal foes.
"The evil hour will strike in your
lives when you turn away from the
paths of rectitude and follow the dis
senters,' declared White in an address
''We must fight hard to save the or
ganization from internal foes. -
White urged the miners to adopt the
d" Washington wage agreement" In ex-
planning the penalty clause, to which
there has been some opposition, he said:
"This will prevent sporadic strikes
and stabilize the coal industry. Through
it, however, the union will lose none of
its former power"
Garfield $ message declared that the
successful prosecution of the war de-
pended greatly on the eradication of
differences between miners and Operat-
orS.

edition on Mondays, but they will not
be restricted during the five day
period.
Theaters and office buildings will be
forced to close on Mondays, but net

naval establishments, ships and for the
direct. needs o fthe government.
Industries and institutions forbidden
to receive coal are also forbidden to
consume coal during the stated periods,
under the order.
Every privision is being made to
prevent undue loss in industries sus-
pended office buildings will be al
lowed to use sufficient coal to prevent
freezing of pipes and heating plants.
State fuel administrators also viii

on the part of the merchants of the
city in the matter of an early closing
hour during the holiday season, reported
that through diversity of views and in
terests among the merchants the com
mittee had not met with very universal
success. A number of the members pre-
sent thought further action might be
had and voted to continue the commit
tee in the hope that a greater number
of merchants would fall in line on the
early closing hour. The subject and the
committee s report was made special

Remarks Are Pithy

"My grandmother was away from
home when my father was born. -
"Orthodoxy is too often only pet
rified opinion"
''I IN not supposed to use feather
duster-I always use a hay rake.'
The greatest act of faith according
to Bruce Evans is to believe that Christ
is always near. He spoke last night on
the Significance of the life of Jesus.
Here was man he said who was q
humble carpenter. He never wrote so
far as we know but q few words Yet
the sublimest literature of all ages is
the result Of the inspiration of his life.
He was not musician though the most
beautiful music of the world was writ
ten around his life. He never painted
picture but the grandest art men have
known is that art that portrays his life
and Influence in the world.
The purpose of the life of Christ was
discussed. Evans rides no hobbies. He
said he believed in q great many doe
trines that he never discusses for the
thing he thinks ought to be stressed is
the one fact that with Christ man is
saved, without Him he is lost.
The power of the life of Christ was

of the political crisis'' in Germany
by which "Chancellor Hertling's view
point is to be maintained on the east
and Hindenburg is to be given free

tory, to deal with any possible annex
ations on the west front =
"The agreement" apparently means
that Hertlng's plans for emo annex
ations" policy toward Russia are TO be
carried out on the northern and eastern
fronts and the pan-German militarist
policy of territorial aggrandizement is
to rule as to France and Belgium.
The panGermans have persistently
maintained that Germany must never
