1t through for their own mills, which have usurped Liverpoops pre- emin- ence, and so furnish return cargo for Nippon. It is not generally known, perhaps, that the Japanese are not idle concerning after -the-war trade. They have recently ascertained that the San Diego & Arizona cutoff will give them an advantage in hauling cotton by rail from New Orleans or Galveston to San Diego for trans Pacific shipment rather than using the Panama canal with it's attendant tolls.
 Cotton is but an item among the products and wares to which the new rail line will give a quickened pace to
 Pacific tidewater. As it will send them quicker, so it will distribute ocean borne returns .quicker. In the way of trade competition with Japan, a sample opportunity would appear in the South Sea islands whose cocoa

 The dream that materialized was the dream of John D.

The San Diego chamber of commerce has received many complaints that erroneous impressions have been created in the mind of the public by writers as to the rainfall status of San Diego county. Believing that these complaints are well founded. the cham Der of commerce asked H. F. Aleiatore, meteorologist in charge of the local weather bureau, to prepare a paper setting forth the facts as to the annual precipitation in San Diego county. MT. Alciatores remarks, in part, are as follows:
 Tt is regrettable fact that, in the past, the historians of San Diego county have given the rainfall records of the San Diego station so great prominence and so much publicity as Q create the impression that San Diego county is little better than a desert.
 The rainfall records presented in this paper have been collected and are now published for the purpose of dispelling so unfortunate an impress sion, and putting the rainfall status of San Diego county before the general public in it's true aspect

amazing mountain scene along what is known as Carriso gorge, destined to become one of Americas famous scenic travel routes. It is 15 miles in length and leads to Carriso pass at an elevation of 2006 feet, the eastern of two passes by which the mountain range is crossed by the railway. The other pass is westward of the head Of the gorge and is known ss Tecate di vide, where the road reaches an ele vation of 36s7 feet, the highest poin. on the line.
 Oddly enough. one of the numerous tunnels was found necessary directly at the international boundary line where the survey crossed back into the United States after the loop into Lower California from San Diego. Travellers, therefore. will not cross the line hers but go under it.

over and plan her work. Our teachers
come from good families. They are
used to relatively good living condi-
tions, therefore they expect to be TAX
en- in. by such people. The boarding
place should not be too far from the
school. This boarding and rooming
problem is now, one of the most diff
ticult confronting the one-room school.
Another important matter that every
community should give attention to is
the discrimination often made against
the teacher of the local community.
Owing to the fact that the teacher in
such cases can board and room at
home, the salary of such teacher is
less than the teacher could secure
elsewhere. The fact that the teach
er can secure board for less or that
the parents will charge no board at
all gives no authority or reason for
paying a smaller salary. What right
has the public to place this special tax
on the particular family? The work
is public; the public receives the ben
eft and the public should pay the bill.
l have even known that the ownership
of a small property has. held teachers
salaries down. Think what reward
is such treatment for the thrift that
necessarily made the small saving
possible. The public controls the con-
ditions and requirements under which
the teachers work. It should pay. I
cannot enjoy the remark when board
member says we have a fine teacher,
we secured her for such and such a
sum. You know her home is in the
community. She can afford to take
less. Let's apply this doctrine lit
tie further. Suppose you are selling
your wheat. The elevator man says,
"You live so handy to the elevator,
you do not need to haul your wheat
so far. / will give you ten cents less
per bushel than if you lived ten miles
from here"

: COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES ;
D. W. Pearce, Co. Supt, of Schools

D. W. Pearce, Co. Supt. of Schools
Attention was called in the school
notes OF last week to the educational
inequality or in other words unequal
educational opportunities existing at
present in Medina county. In some in
stances practically all except school
or few schools have been consoli-
dated. This was done to give better
educational advantages. No one will
deny this statement. Now on what sort
of argument can the extension of this
same educational opportunity to those
not now sharing it be denied. The re-
sponsibility for such conditions needs
to be definitely placed. Is it due to
the will of the people that their chill
dren shall have less educational op-
portunity than other children of the
township? Unfortunately in some
cases it is just that. Can it in any
case be due to school authorities :?
Would it be waste of money to
spend a little more and thereby give
every child in the countywhat it has
a right to. The public minded citizens
are coming to this Office more and
more frequently inquiring as to what
may be done towards giving all an
equal chance. This spirit is growing.
1t is only question Of time when the
sentiment of the voters and tax pay
ers of the less favored districts will
overwhelmingly demand educational
equality. Anything other than this is
unAmerican, undemocratic, unpatriotic
and manifestly unfair. I desire to
champion the rights of the children
who cannot speak for themselves.
What is a few dollars more or less
as measured against a child's prepa-
ration for life. What must be the fu-
ture Of child today that fails to get
the rudiments Of learning? Let no
parent, school official or citizen of
community leave anything undone
that shall further the legitimate in
terests of the children.
I ask no special privileges for the
teachers, however, there are several
things that the general public should
have in mind. We first of all want
the best possible schools we can have.
No teacher alone can make a good
school. Last year we had several
failures and near failures, partly, but
not wholly due to the teacher. The
community has its fair share in every
failure of it's school. True or false,
do not know, but few days ago
man in the Office of county superin-
tendent stated that one patron was re-
sponsible for the failure of a school.
Why should the people of a COM
munity allow one person or a few
for that matter by their attitude
toward the school to render the school
a practical failure? This ought not to
be. The sentiment of a neighborhood
has much to do with the problems of
a school. However, / should certainly
hold the teacher responsible for her
fair share of responsibility. The COM
munity should see to it that the teach
er has a good boarding place. This
has a great deal to do with the teach
ers' success. A teacher needs a room
in which to prepare her work. No
teacher can do her best work and live
altogether with the family. Quiet and
privacy are absolutely necessary that
the teacher may prepare and think
