At present allied soldiers in the
Balkans who have LOST their limbs
are being fitted with artificial limbs
and arms of type similar to that
employed by Sarah Bernhard. Pro-
lessor Puttis. methods. however, are
distinct advance over all other arti-
fetal appliances.
His treatment of amputated limbs
consists Of unique preparation of
the stump to develop a motor" end
to the cords which. after being bound
together over smooth bearing" Of
bone, get as much as a three-inch
travel of the leg by means of a re-
education and coordination of the mus
cles of the stump.
After the stump heals Professor
Putt cuts out a flap of flesh. which
he folds back into an incision to take
the flap. This is allowed to heal and
then through the loose flap Of flesh
a metal bar with attachments to OPP
crate the artificial limb below Is
suspended.
The muscles Of the calf and thigh
readily respond after some weeks to
the movement of the artificial leg, and
soon the pressure of the swinging Of
the artificial leg re-educates the mus
Giles through the flap of flesh. so that
1t may be said the muscles OF the
stump actually operate by themselves

are trained TO operate catgut cords

SCHOOL DISTRICT NUMBER FIVE

Any careful student of the detailed
report made in the columns. of the
Star Mirror few days ago by the
secretary of the school board will see
that the Moscow school system is
speedily approaching crisis in it's
financial life. With valuation of ap-
proximately $4,000 upon which the
maximum levy can be laid, the in
come of the district amounts to not
more than $4,000. During the next
five years an income of at least $685.
900 will be imperative.
This increase of income will be
necessitated by several circumstances.
A new school building will have to be
erected very shortly on the site of the
present Irving school grounds; bonds
to the amount of $4,000 will have to
be retired; good teachers will not be
available in year or two at the salar-
les now offered by the district; and
repairs and maintenance needs will
have to be met. In short if the dis,
trict can not raise an income almost
double what it is spending now our
admirable school system will have to
go backwards. 1t, can not stand still;
and it certainly will not be able to go
forward without more money. NJ
There are two remedies for the stu
alton. The district will have to be in
-. .f..fft :
creased to include a greater amount of
taxable property or the legislature
wall have to permit the increase in the
rate of levy. An increase in the size
Of the district would be. most desir-
able. AS matters stand now, outlying
districts send their pupils here; and
the tuition fees, which are always so
extremely difficult to collect, are SO
small as to make the cost of teaching
country pupils very much greater
than the fees received.
An increase in the rate of levy will
probably be sought from the next leg
isiature. That would provide GER
tain amount of extra money for use in
meeting the mounting expense.
In other words, Moscow has more
pupils now in the system than it has
the money to care for properly, and in
the next five years, it will not be able !
to do nearly as much for it's boys and
girls in the way of accommodations |
and good teaching as it has been doing |
the pas five years unless extra
money is found some place.
This is mighty serious situation.
The school board during the next few
years will not have any snap in adj
of finances. 1t is enough |
to make every citizen consider serious
~ the type of trustee he elects next
Tuesday. No one who has considered
the figures can doubt that Moscow
needs men experienced in business,
men who are able to think and deal
in terms of thousands of dollars,
level-headed men with broad con-
structive vision. 1t would be a dis
aster right now to select any one
who has not on his shoulders keen
business head for big finance.

1t is an axiom that the best citizens
are those who own property in town
and make a permanent home in the
community into which they move.
Even if man thinks he is going to
remain a very short time in the new
location, it is the part of good citizen
ship to show his faith in his choice
by investing his money in a roof that
he can call his own.
