SUNDAY SONG SERVICE
 OMITTED THIS WEEK END

The usual Sunday afternoon song meeting will be omitted on next Sun day, February 23, due to the fact that 1t was not found convenient to provide 8 prepared program for that date. As the community singing has been con- ducted by working jointly with the industrial plants it becomes necessary to make the time selected convenient for the factory which prepares the program. On last Sunday very creditable program was furnished by Russell & Erwin and it was warmly commended by those who attended

that battle, but we did win it, and against positions so strong that the Allies had never considered attacking them before. Speed, will, endurance and John Pershing's determination conquered all obstacles. The battle cost Us 10000 casualties and perhaps saved us a million that it would havo cost Us if the war had lasted till next spring. Nothing in our history ap- breaches 1t either as an operation as a whole or in detail"

BETTER SALARIES
 FOR ALL TEACHERS
Doubling Pay Within Next Five Years Aim of United States
 Commissioner.

Washington. Feb. 21-Doubling the salaries of public school teachers within the next five years, and an ad- dition of 50 per cent. before another ten years have passed, so that the minimum average salary for teachers would be s1,500, was the program urged by Commissioner of Education Claxton in 8 statement today.
 Preachers are now paid less for their work than any other class of workers,'' said the commissioner, "and the increase in their pay in the last few years has in no wise been in keeping with the increase in pay of other workers, or with the increase in the cost of living. While the cost of living has increased approximately so per cent, the salaries of teachers have increased only about 12 per cent
 Many of the better teachers are leaving the schools and their places arc taken by men and women of less native ability, less education and cul- ture and less training and experience, Many Of the places 2 re not filled at all. As an inevitable result the char acter Of the schools are being lowered just at a timo when 1t ought to be raised to n much higher standard The only remedy is larger pay for teachers"

WEIRD DREAM STORY.
The Startling Vision That Saved the
Life of Lady Vernon.

Life OF Lady Vernon.
The following dream story is told in
1.-THE storyIsf My Life" by Augustus
]. @. Hare. The story was told to Mr..
Hare in Rome in 1870:
Lady Vernon dreamed that she saw
the butler, with n knife in one hand
and a candle In the other, crossing the
entrance hall, and she awoke with q
great start. After awhile she COM
posed herself to sleep again, and she
d~reamed-she dreamed that she saw
the butler, with a knife in one hand
and a candle in the other, on the mid.
die of the staircase, and she awoke
with a great shock. She got up. She
thought she could not be quite well,
and she took a little sal volatile. At
last she fell asleep again. and she
dreamed-she dreamed that she saw
the butler, with a knife in one hand
and a candle in the other, standing at
her bedroom door, and she awoke in a
great terror, and she jumped out Of
bed, and she said, I'll have an end of
this; I'll have an end of these foolish
imaginations.'
"And she rushed to the door and
threw it wide open. And there just
outside stood the butler, with a knife
In one hand and a candle in the other.
And when he suddenly saw Lady ver-
non in her white n~ightdress, with her
hair streaming down her back, he was
so dreadfully frightened that he
dropped the candle on the floor and
rushed off down the staircase and off
to the stables, where there was a horse
ready saddled and bridled, on which
he meant to have ridden away when
he had murdered Lady Vernon. And
he rode away without having murdered
her at all, and he was never heard Of
again.
