MO FREE TUITION FOR COUNTY
PUPILS IN CITY SCHOOLS

Where there are convenient and
adequate high schools provided by
the County Board of Education the
board cannot be compelled to con-
tract with a city high school for free
tuition for country pupils, Judge
Robert J.. Stout decided in the
Franklin Circuit Court in the suit of
John Sacra who sought to enjoin the
Franklin county board to arrange
for his daughters admission to the
Frankfort high school.
The county high schools provide
two years course and the board has
a contract with the city schools for
the third and fourth years for the
benefit of rural pupils. Judge Stout
held that this is all that is required
OF the county board. The county
high school at Thorn Hill, a suburb,
is within three miles of the Sacra
home.
County Superintendent l.. d.
Sucker stated that if a contract was
made with the city schools for the
first two years it would destroy the
county high schools and deprive the
children of people who could not af-
ford to send them to the city of an
opportunity for an education.

FOR AN EMERGENCY

Every man owes it to himself tc
lay aside an emergency fund. An
ideal way to do this is by purchasing
War Savings Stamps or Treasury
Savings Certificates. They increase
in value every month you hold them

IO6 AIRNEN KILLED
IN TEXAS DURING WAR
I,475 Trained on Three Big
Fields Went Into Service.

FORT WORTH, Tex. May lone hun
dred and six men were killed at the
three big Government aviation fields here
between November is. 1917, and the re-
cent close Of aerial activities, according
to official figures Just made public.
In the same period the three fields
now being closed turned out 1,475 nm
ished aviators, most Of whom were sent
to the western front. A thousand COM
missioned aviators also were sent here
from other schools to finish their gun
merry course at Taliaferro Field.
During the training period the actual
Tying hours at Carruthers Field totalled
$4,000, at Barron Field, 26,60S, and at
Taliaferro Field, SASS.
The tall spin and nose dive were re-
sponsible for a large majority Of the ac-
cidents. according to officers. In the en-
tire training period not a single Ameri-
can cadet was killed on the first solo
flight This Is attributed to the thorough
instruction In ground work.
While the tail spin and nose dive were
chief factors In the fatality list there
were other contributing causes. Capt
Vernon Castle, who had faced death
numerous times over the German lines,
swerved his machine sharply to avoid
hitting another aviator here. He lacked
height for the maneuvre, crashed and
was killed.
The young son of Gen. Peyton c.
March. Chief of STAFF, was killed while
engaged in combat practice at height
OF 1000 feet. The wings of his machine
became entangled with those OF his oppo-
nent's plane.
Capt. Robert Isett of Providence fell
from the greatest height 5000 feet. Two
men fell from their planes at great
heights because Of failure to strap them
selves in.
