The value OF staying at school is
stated in dollars and cents in figures
sompiled by the bureau Of. zeducation
and now being distributed to boys and
girls throughout the country by the
children's bureau.
From study of a large number Of
actual cases it has been found that at
25 years of age the boy who remained
in school until he was Is had received
81, 600 more salary than the boy who
left school at14, and that the better
educated youth was then receiving
more than. 5000 year more in pay.
"This is equivalent to an investment
Of SIS, 900, at 5 per cent" the statement
said. Can boy increase his capital
as fast any other way?
"From this time on the salary OF the
better educated boy will rise more rap
idly, while the earnings the boy who
left school at IA will increase but little"
While wages have increased Win the
war, the proportion shown in table
Of weekly earning still holds true the
statement said, The boy who left
school at IA at the time the investiga-
ton was made received an average of
81 week, his wages increasing each
year to 81 week at IS. The boy who
remained in school until he was 1S be-
gan work at $40 a week.
At 20 the salaries were $3.50 week
for the boy who left school early and
SIS for his better trained competitor.
At 25 they were, earning 1915 and $81
respectively, and total wages up to
that time had been $5,l12.50 and
%,337.50, so that the boy who remained
in school had earned nearly so per cent
more in eight years than the other
had in II years.

II is estimated that truck and the

How the Truck Is Made.
A hay truck l. feet long by feet
wide will hold about 100 TO 2.H0
pounds Of cured hay. II consists OF
rack which rests OF an A-shaped
frame. At the rear. the frame is sup
ported by two 1G to % inch wheels
placed about feet from the end.
The front is supported Icy a g by s-inch
wooden block ~ sufficient length TO
hold the truck level This is known as
the trigger and il fastened by heavy
bolt between the two main frame tim
bers near where they come together.
Upright standards am placed nj each
end Of the frame in an A-shaped posi-
tion. At the top Of each standard
notch Is cut to receiv. II . by inch
ridge pole that supports the canvas
covering and keeps It from lying fiat
on the hay. thus permitting the air to
circulate freely at the top. The truck
is moved by means Of a 2-horse team
and a 2-wheel running gear, similar To
the front running gears OF n low-wheel-
ed wagon. This gear Is attached
to the front end Of the truck by means
Of long clevis pin, and when the
team starts the forward movement
causes the trigger To trip and drag
on the ground. the weight Of the load
being thus shifted TO the running
gears. Upon reaching the barn or
baling machine the team Is backed n
step or two. which causes the trigger
TO assume an upright position and
again support the front end Of the
load.

 The two men rushed the corridors, in which were standing Mrs. Warren Am prose, another inmate of the prison, talk ing with her daughter, Mrs Jack Kerr, and Eugene Driskell. The alarm was im- mediately given, and within 20 minutes Sheriff Stanfill was on the etrail. Two hours later Griffith was caught by Spe- cial Deputy Day in the neighborhood of Farrells we'll on the outskirts of town
 Reddick has made repeated attempts to get out of jail since his arrest early in February, after a systematic attempt to rifle every safe on Water street. and he has boasted all along that he would never face Judge Miller at the spring term of circuit court. For this reason every precaution possible was taken in guarding him, but it became necessary to Fput Reddick and Griffith in the same cell, owing to the number of negro pris oners held.
 Owners of automobiles in Selma are warned by Sheriff Stanfill not to leave their cars on the streets, as Reddick has reputation as an automobile thief He always picks high speed car, and on his arrest here in February a Stutz stolen from Troy, in which he came to Selma. was recovered
