The Pay of Our
School Teachers

/ No argument whatever is necessary
in discussing the matter with the
neWspaper-reading public in the Unit
ed States, to elicit the admission that
Fundamentally, the public school has
proved itself the chief ally and bui-
wark of the free government which
has been enjoyed since the republic
was established. Education for the
masses has proved the safeguard a.
galnst all revolutionary tendencies, of
serious proportions, up to the present
time, and there is no reason to doubt
that It's continuance on an even broad
er and more comprehensive scale than
heretofore, promises more for the con-
tinued stability of genuine democracy
than any of the political or industrial
theories concerning which SO much is
now heard in all parts of the world.

the work of the public school and the

a continuance of that work is more
insistent today than ever before. In

very greatly. The same problem is
presented, in less degree, perhaps, in
every community of considerable size
IN the United States. What is being
done to meet this increasing demand
upon the public system of the coun-
try! Really, it would seem, less than
nothing at all. Recent estimates made
by the Bureau of Education of the
United States, based on nationwide
surveys and investigation. show that
there were at least $4,000 vacancies
IN the teaching force of the public
schools of the country at the opening
OF the present school year. In addi-
ton TO these vacancies, which caused
the complete closing of many schools
and schoolrooms, it was estimated that
there were at least 10000 unframed
and inexperienced persons who had
been placed in teaching positions
simply in order to prevent schools
from being closed.
While the conditions revealed nv the
foregoing estimate are serious enough
to arrest the attention of all persons
who are at all concerned in the vel
fare of the public school system an
the system at the present, time II
seems reasonable to assume that they
indicate vastly more serious condi-
ton of affairs for the future, unless
steps shall be taken at once to cor
rect the tendency now all too appar-
ent. The fact is, as all must admi..
that the profession or vocation of the
public-school teacher, under present
industrial and economic conditions. is
not, economically considered attrae-
tive. Hundreds of thousands of train

THE YANKs WHIsTLED

We rolled into Verdun long after
dark on the day of the armistice, and
found no celebration there. There
were no shells falling in the town, but
otherwise the martyred city was as we
had known it during the war. No
lights showed. The narrow streets
were filled with the rustling sound of
many soldiers passing in the dark,
talking in low tones.
And yet there was something
strange about Verdun, something diff
ferent, some change that forced itself
upon my attention, and yet one which
| could not determine. An American
soldier stopped near the car to light a
cigarette. He had been whistling "An-
ME Laurie" and after a long whiff
went on whistling. Then / knew what
made me feel different in Verdun that
night.
Everywhere, all over the city, Am
orleans were whistling. They were
whistling casually, unconsciously, one
this tune and one that. But they were
whistling! One could pick out the Am
orleans in the dark all over the city
because where there was an Amer
lean one heard the shrilling of some
old American tune or newer rag. The
French don't whistle casually on the
street at any time, and never before
had the American generally practised
his habit in Verdun. And that night,
going about their various tasks in the
dark old city, the Americans were
whistling.
Hearing that CHEEKY, familiar sound
my mind for the first time really took
hold on the end of the great war as
an understandable fact.-William
Slavens McNutt in Golfers.

Crummers Will Be Prepared to Talk on Government Finances a.d
 Securities.

Americas vast army of commercial travellers are expected to be the latest auxiliary of the peace-time forces that will continue to spread the war-taught spirit of thrift An urgent request has been sent this great organization to join the national thrift campaign for extending the sale of War Savings and Thrift Stamps.
 The Savings Division of the Treas ury Department has taken the initial step toward enlisting the members of this big organization. In letter to the head of the commercial travellers, the division urged them to continue their valuable services which during the war proved an efficient means of dispelllng enemy propaganda, assist ing the sale of Liberty Bonds and a1d- ing in food conservation.
 In part the request of the Savings Division stated:
 ITO give permanent value to one or the great lessons which the war taught us, the Treasury Department IS con ducting campaign to make thrift a universal element i'll American life. ln this work, the object is to better the financial condition of the American people. This object is to be reached by teaching the people:
 ~1-To put aside, as their first oo- ligation and before they spend at ali' mart of their income for future use. 2-- ID invest the money that they save ont of their incomes in some security which nays a reasonable rate of inter- est, and is absolutely safe, preferaOly Thrift and War Savings Stamps.
 "The more thrifty the people are, the more promptly they pay their bills: and the more promptly Dills are maid. the most stable and prosperous ara hnsiness conditions. It is, there fore. good business for the commercial traveller to join in a campaign to pro- mote thrift.
 "We call upon you to perform a great national service by carrying the message of thrift to all those With whom you come in contact, and oy ascertaining whether or not Thrift anu War Savings Stamps may be easily nurcbased in the communities you visit and reporting the results of your In vestigation to us.

War Savings Certificates Are Not to Be Used as Collateral, But 1t Is
 Easy to Cash Them.

Recent statements appearing in the public prints tending to indicate that War Savings Stamps may be used as collateral to secure loans, or for other purposes, are erroneous, according to a statement by L. A. Wilson, federal director for the War Savings Organi- zation for the Eighth Federal Reserve District.
 It is directly antagonistic to the Fed eral law, says Wilson. The law ex- plicitly states that War Savings Stamps are not negotiable and may not be transferred by the holder. He may, if necessity demands that he ob- tain the money he has invested in them, give 10 days notice and have them redeemed at any post office. But to negotiate them through any chan nel not prescribed by the government is prohibited.

CALLUsEs SHOW MANI $ STATUS IN
 EVERY VOCATION
THESE EVIDENCES OF TOLL ARE SHOWN ON MINDS AS WELL
 AS ON HANDS.
ARE EXHIBITED AS EVIDENCE
The Thrifty Have Long Looked For Such Investment as Government
 Is Now Offering.

NO man can work with his hands without showing calluses, whether he be a great violinist or a section hand His hands bear the credentials of his trade Just as his union card bears the credentials of his trade union. Calluses 6 on the hands are a certificate of standing in the craft and it makes not the slightest difference whether they arc caused by the ivory keys of . grand piano or the handle of a No. 2 muck stick.
 No union man Is ashamed of the cal. luses on his hands. formed in the hon. est practice of his craft But 1t would not hurt for him to have few calluses on hls mind also. He has adequate proof that he has used and can use his hands. Even the most hard-boiled police court judge is willing to accept his manual calluses as conclusive evi- dence. But he needs something to show that he has used and can use his mind.
 Has he thought for himself as well as worked for himself? If his brain has made him save and preserve what his hands have gained, the answer is "Yes" and the proof is there for all to see. His savings and his invest ments are the calluses which show that his mind has been working for him.
 It is not necessary for any man to blister his mind before he has thought calluses on it. All he has to do is to save part of what he earns every week ard put 1t into some safe, sound and profitable security, such as Gov ernment Savings Stamps and Treas ury Savings Certificates. They are the safest place for your savings because they have the U. S. Government be- hind them.
 The lines thrift cause in your mind are lot better looking and more valu- able than the lines a pick handle or a spike maui etch in your lunch hooks.
