estly. Abe, to hear the bank presl-
dents and the captains of industry
talk. you would think that every time
laborer got raise he only hesitated
long enough to drop a tear for pro-
hibition before going right over to a
poolroom and putting the increase on
a horse which didn't win. 1t never
occurs to the bank president that the
laborer might put the amount OF his
raise in the savings bank or pay OFT
part OF the mortgage OF his home, or
buy shares in building and loan
association
Tt don't occur to the laborer who
gets the raise neither" Abe said.
1t occurs to him in enough cases.

children. There might we'll be higher
motives in both cases. They are not
inconsistent. At commencement time
we often hear high praise for our
schools, but teachers cannot live un-
der an autocratic public sentiment as
regards teachers pay and make the
children democratic. In some res
poets the way we handle our school
affairs is comparable to feeding the
children skim milk and Jersey cream
to the pigs. The qualifications of the
teacher should be as high as consis-
tent with the wages paid. In Califor-
mia, one legislature raises the wages
and the next raises the qualifications
and then the process is repeated. They
have today one Of the best state
systems Of education in the United
States. Arizona has or will pass a
minimum wage law for teachers MAX
ing the smallest possible salary $1,000.
We often hear the topic, "Why the
Teacher Leaves the Profession" dis
cussed. In the wage paid, the plot for
the tragedy may be found.
To make matters right, the common
people must take a hand in public
affairs. Everyone should study the
question of taxation, and not how to
keep the taxes low, but rather how
much can we spend and get adequate
returns, for the place with the lowest
tax rate may not and generally is not
the best place to live. If we buy a
thing worth while, we expect to pay
for it in everything but education.
School boards will feel their response
bility and the difficulties keenly for
while. Teachers wages were not
sufficient before the period of high
prices and yet occasionally we hear
some one voice the hope that prices
will come down so the teachers wages
will not need to be increased. In
creases of five dollars a month are
insufficient. They only give us an op-
portunity to say we "raised our teach
ers." The real point is this: are we
to have the teachers we ought. to
have next year and the year follow
ing? Are we going to hold the teach
ers that ought to be retained? Are
we going to be able to recall any
from industry? Can we adopt a
schedule of wages that will induce the
proper young people to begin now
to prepare themselves for work in
our schools a little later on? Do you

for the smart combination Of colors in

ings apphqued fatty to small hat
of crysanthemum straw. The most
riotous Of colors are used in hat trim
mings, but they must be applied with
care so that the effect will be a work
of art rather than makeshift.
The color combination is prominent
in frocks of Georgette. The most
desirable effects are obtained when a
dark color is used over light and
brighter one. This lends subtle
charm to the color which will double
the attractiveness of the dress.
Artistic Creations in Waistc0ats
Waistcoats are now the cleverest
feature of suits and dresses. The
most delightful and fantastical ideas
are taking form in the daintiest OF
silks and satins. What could be
more appealing than magenta and
white blocked silk waistcoat, the
neckline of which is cut square and a
finely tucked organdie chemisette in
serted. Worn with a suit Of dark blue
serge it surely would reflect the spirit
of Spring. The suit illustrated shows
a vest which may be developed in a
variety of ways. The wrap shown Is
developed in covert cloth with a con-
trasting collar of black satin.

effect, favors large circular pockets
of light gray wool. Stunning indeed
is this sports skirt, and durable too,
for the wool wears well and the color
is sufficiently dark to warrant its re-
naming clean and fresh looking for
a reasonable length of time.
Sports blouses Of flannel find the
pocket an ideal trimming. Smart
women at the winter resorts are wear
ing these attractive things at outdoor
meets and for early morning strolls.
They are usually developed in pastel
shades and worn with knitted or Geor-
gette satin skirts.
Rows of Buttons
Shimmery skirts of Georgette satin
are trimmed with rows of buttons.
Some are large and others are so tiny
that when placed closely together the
effect is much like an irregular silk
cording. But the range of good taste
is wide concerning the size and shape
of the buttons used, and the result is
the combination of two different style
buttons on the same skirt or blouse.

SCHOOL NOTES

leisure time to the best advantage to
himself and others. In order to ob-
tain the proper knowledge and skill in
a reasonable time requires real work
on the part of pupils and the best
efforts of properly trained and pre-
pared teachers. Teachers should be
adequately trained both accidentally
and professionally. Any one not SO
trained and prepared, on moral
grounds at any rate, ought not to en-
ter the school room in the capacity
as teacher. The general public does
not realize the seriousness of the
teachers position. The reason is that
they do not realize the difference be-
tween the results of the good and the
poor teacher. Time will tell, but it
is then too late to mend matters.
To compel child to attend school
and then to fail to provide the best
possible teacher is nothing less than an
outrage. The state that grants life
certificates, a sort Of blanket GER
tifcate, allowing the bearer to teach
anything the board of education may
require is also an outrage. 1t is my
belief that a teacher should be GER
tifcated to teach only such branches
as he may be proficient in and nc
others. I do not want my children
taught by teachers(?) who are
working just ahead of the class,
and my children do not deserve any
more than any others. Text books
are good things when properly used
but because they are generally writer
in the English language they are sus
ceptible to great abuses. For thai
reason many teachers are willing tt
teach subject they have never
studied.
What will remedy matters FRS
of all, careful consideration of thu
situation. It requires time and none!
to prepare adequately for teaching
The state should make this cost thu
individual as little as possible. Tht
state should see to it that the teacher
is paid thrift wage. Some ta1

there is no doubt that buttons will re-

are neat and unpretentious and add a
