DIRECTIONS
(Read Carefully

First-Get 81, 81. SO or S5, add a
dash Of 10 per cent war tax, and hold
firmly in right fist.
Second-Go under the river or cover
the river to New Jersey and ask the
first intelligent human being you, meet
the way to Newark. and the LIST Regi-
ment Armory. If the intelligent human
being is out of town for the day, follow
your nose until you come to the ar
mory. Don't be afraid of going astray;
your nose knows" il you don't.
Third very Importantly Walk
loosen your grip on the "do-ray-mi"
and hand to the man behind the win
dow, accepting in exchange bit Of
pasteboard of a pale pink, light blue
or orange color. These cards entitle
you, according to rate paid, to member
ship in the first, second, third or fifth
degree of friendship.
There is special course of home
treatment, recommended especially for
married men, which we earnestly in
dorse, to prevent any bad after effects.
1t is as follows:
Tell the wife that the "boss" has
asked all the help to remain late at
the office on Monday night, and that
therefore you won't be able to turn
out the light in the hall and open
the window until about midnight. If
this fails to have soothing effect.
tell her that on Tuesday night you
would like her to be your guest at
the movies" the "drah- nah" or the
opera. The dose must be adminis-
tered according to the wife; what is
one wife's meat being another wife's
rough on rats"
If beneficial results are not OBJ
tanned within a reasonable period
from the above prescriptions, remove
one of the heavy china dinner plates
from the closet, grasp firmly in the
right hand, raise above the head, in
order to get greater follow
through" and proceed in the natural
way, care being taken not TO smash
any of the valuable ornaments in the
room as ths plate leaves the hand.
With a little practice at home there
New-York tribune., 1919-01-20

is no reason why you should not be
able to hit the mark (slang for wife),
seven times out of ten.
Having described, in purely technical
terms, the outstanding features of the
leonard Dundee bout to be held at
Newark this evening, you will pardon
us, Aunt Eleanor Ann, if we indulge in
BIT OF fanciful word painting re-
gardlng other details of the affair
Benny and Dundee have met four
times already, and the issue between
them has never yet been definitely de-
clded. Leonard seems to have the edge
on the results of their bouts up to
date, and Dundee is generally regarded
as having gone back to quite an extent
within the last year and a half, al
though still fast performer. But to
offset this advantage it must be re-
membered that Leonard is fight shy"
due to his long term as boxing in
structor, whereas Dundee has been
lighting steadily. Johnny has never
scared anybody because of knockout
punch, while Leonard is known to carry
an awful disaster in either glove. If
he finds an opening to Dundee's jaw
to o-night Johnny is in imminent danger
of hearing the little bird twitter in the
treetop-and it won't be a BLUE BIRD,
either.
A disquieting rumor blew over the
Jersey marshes late on Saturday night,
to the effect that the bout might be
prevented by the legal action taken by
j. J. Lannin and Mortimer Davis
earlier in the day. Lannin secured
restraining order from Vice Chancellor
Lane, of Newark, preventing the club
manapompnt from diSDoSinp in aDv
manner of the receipts taken in at the
bout until his claims against the club
owners had been liquidated.
1t appears, according to the report,
that Lannin never received the money
due him for the rental of Weiden-
mayors Park, Newark, where the Ted
Lewis Benny Leonard bout was held
last fall. Davis, it is said, rented the
chairs to the management on that oc-
casion and claims he has never been
paid. However, the mouse will prob
ably get busy with the mountain to-
day and these legal difficulties will be
adjusted satisfactorily.

Rural Schools

I have, during these first two
months Of the school year, received
so many letters from teachers on the
question of salary. Most of these let
tiers have come from experienced
teachers, who signed contracts to
teach early last spring at salaries
ranging from $50 to $40 a month. The
shortage of teachers which developed
shortly before opening of school rails
ed salaries to $50 to $50 month and
added to that, these positions had to
be filled by inexperienced teachers.
This situation has created dlssatls-
faction among teachers and has caus-
ed me to take this question up at
the school board conventions, at which
time / recommended to school boards
that where the teacher was giving sat
isfaction and had signed contract at
$50 a month, they do something for
her.
I thot and still think that in view OF
existing conditions this would only
be fair to such teachers. AS usual IN
such cases some teachers have con-
strued into meaning that | would APP
prove a teacher breaking contract
if a board would not raise such sal
airy. want to emphasize the con-
trary is true, that while l will work
with teachers and for teachers al
ways. I will not tolerate teacher
breaking her contract with one board
to accept a position with another
without good and sufficient reasons.
It becomes my duty in such cases to
annul her certificate and | will not
hesitate to do so where cause is sufl-
cient.
AS result of work at the conven-
ton some IT'S teachers will receive
the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis lit
erature and health charts. This will
mean that hundreds of children will
be trained in health chores this year
in connection with regular school
work. The value of this work cam
not be estimated in dollars and cents.
Consistent efforts along this line thru
a period Of years is bound to bring re-
suits.
