make. One is that you take the teach
ers into your confidence and confer
with them, if you have not already done
so. Ask them to furnish you data that
you can give to the public. The other
suggestion is that you use every en-
deavOr to enlighten the public with re-
spect to the present crisis. We have
had Il shortage of teachers this year
but unless salaries leap upward. and
perhaps even then. we shall have Il
greater shortage of teachers next year
than we have this year. a shortage OF
teachers means poorer teachers always.

proposition should lie made co-opera-

Former Emperss
Eugene Of France
Dead at Madrid

Madrid, July 11,-Former Empress
Eugenie of France, who died here this
morning was i'll only few hours be-
fore her death. She was exceptionally
well Saturday morning. AT midday she
lunched heartily. eating chicken and
isome ham.
| Empress Eugene seemed conscious
that death was approaching and those
lwho stood by the bedside say she ap-
peared glad to die in Spain, her native
country.
| Death occurred shortly before 3
o'clock from acute intestinal inf1am-
nation. She passed away quietly in
the presence only Of her lady-in-wait-
ing. Her nephew, the Duke of Alma.
at whose residence she died, was In
France, and the other members of the
family were absent.
Empress Eugenie had long suffered
from opthalmia and had ben operated
on for cataract. Full imeprial honors
will be accorded at her funeral.
Eugene Marie de Montijo, former
empress Of France, was born in Grams
ada, Andalusia, Spain, May 5. 1926.
Her maternal grandfather was VIII
sui at Malaga, who was native or
Scotland, but naturalized American.
Napoleon Her Only Son.
She was educated in France, Spain
and England. She met her husband,
Emperor Napoleon III, first in 1851.
and married him in Uotre Dame ca
thedral, Paris, January 80, 1853.
Prince Napoleon, her only son, the
prince imperial, was born March 16s
1855.
The empress had great influence
over her husband and on several oc-
, casions acted as regent during his abb
sence.
At the outbreak of the Franc0-
Prussian war many accused Eugene
of hvaing been responsible for the
commencement of hostilities Never
|theless the time Empress Eugene
Ireeeived respectful sympathy and
even after old age had crept upon
her she was reverently greeted by
those who saw her in Paris parks
enjoying sunshine and talking with
children. In the Tulleries gardens
the stern-vistaged gendarmes looked
the other way when she was plucking
flowers.
! NOtuUlc tltituty DlcpithyOU
Some time ago Eugenie lost the
sight of one of her eyes and she
begged that she might be taken to
Spain before she became entirely
blind. Her wish was gratiffed and
last April Eugene again saw the
beauties of Spain. Despite her 81
years she displayed notable vitality.
The ex-Empress Eugenie was al
most impatient for the end of her
long lease of life. She was "a years
old. Forty-four years of her life
were sparkling in the successive
roles of the Spanish countess, Eugenie
Marie de Montijo, travelling through
Europe, visitor to the French court,
wife of Papoleon III. and an occa-
sional regent of the French empire.
Then in a day the whole structure
of imperial eminence collapsed. The
other half of her life was monrnful.
SO much SO that Eugenie had said:
IT wish I had passed when the
shadowy fabric Of my dream fell
apart"
