MORE PAY FOR TEACHERS.

The United States Bureau of
! Education believes that 81 800
annually should be the minimum
average salary paid to teachers
and is recommending that the
necessary increases be made as
rapidly as possible. "It is only
by very large increases in the
pay Of teachers that we can hope
to improve our schools appre-
ciably," " declares DR.. p. p. Clax-
ton, head Of the bureau. Point
ing out that teachers are now
paid less than any other class Of
workers and that many Of them
are leaving the schools. with the
result that persons Of less train
ing and experience are taking
their places, to the detriment of
the schools, DR. ClaXton says:
"An evidence of this is found
in the students who are now en-
tering the normal schools to
prepare for teaching. As rule
they are not Of as good quality |
as they were formerly, which

GERMANS SAVED
BY WARM WINTER
By FRANK ]. TAYLOR,
United Staff Correspondent.

BERLIN, Feb, 23.-(By Mail. )-The
warmest winter in years has done
much to lessen suffering in Germany
and in other parts of the former cen
tral empires. 1t is looked upon as an
act Of providence.
There has been almost no freezing
weather in Germany this winter The
dread of sickness from cold which
the nation had is gradually passing.
1t is estimated that thousands
would have died for want of heat if
the usual bitter spell of winter had
set in, due to the lack of coal and
clothes.
In Austria the situation was partic-
ularly bad, since the hotels were al
lowed barely enough coal for cooking.
Trains were cut down to a mini
mum, barely enough to care for traf-
fic.
In both these countries no coal at
all is allowed to the public, since the
few public utilities need the entire

today, has approximately five thou
sand accounts with the oil produ-
GERS and royalty owners Of the state
More than five hundred of these
accounts are delinquent. Some have
been delinquent for over a year and
tax warrants will be issued to the
sheriff of the county in which the
production is located if the tax and
penalty are not paid within thirty
days
Every person, firm or corporation
who owns an interest in oil or gas
in the state must make a report and
pay taxes on actual cash value of
such interest. However reports are
not required and no tax need be paid
on oil and gas produced from Usage
or resti icted Indian land"
1t is estimated that the amount of
gross production taxes delinquent
and unpaid is over 100000.

means that the standards Of the
schools must continue to fall. In
some normal schools the enroll
ment is far less than it has been
in former years. There is only
one remedy and that is larger
pay for teachers. If the authori-
ties would adopt the policy that
the bureau of education suggests
Of steadily increasing their earn
ings until a minimum average
salary Of 81 800 is reached, | be-
.lieve this prospect would attract
, to the schools more men and
women Of superior ability and
would hold them, working con
tentedly and profitably for the
children and the public welfare
"To those who are acquainted
with past conditions and who
have given the matter no intelh-
gent thought, the increase rec
omnended may seem large, but
in fact it is not. In Oklahoma
and most of the states it would
mean range Of salaries from
81 900 to $4,000 No person who
is fit to take the time and money

for the purpose of fitting them |

be asked to work for less than
$1,000 in any community or any
state.
