1t is too poor and the school fund is
too small to permit the people Of the
state to be satisfied with a wastaee
like that which it now has and has
had for years,
All people interested in the schools
should bear constantly in mind these
two objects: First, that it does not
cost any more to give instruction ey-
cry day to all of thechildren enrolled
in. a school than it does to give in
structipn to an ayerage7of seventy per
cent of them, and, second. that the
effectiveness of the instruction for
those who do attend regularly de-
ponds very largely on the regularity of
the attendance of other children.
Teachers can do much better work
with each individual child in school
when the attendance is good than
they can when the attendance is irreg-
ular.
1t is impossible to estimate the final
loss to the state through the defec-
tiveness in the education of the chill
dren due to the irregularity of the at

DEATH RELIEF TO
SUFFERING VIENNA
----4
ONCE GAY CAPITAL, NOW ISoLAT,
ED, FACES ANOTHER TER
RlBLE WINTER.
BY CARL d. GROAT.

Omitted Press staff Correspondent.
BERLIN, Oct, 2Or1By 'Mail death
sometimes brings an almost welcome
solution to the housing problem in vi
emma and to the misery that has reign
ed there since the war. A. E. Filene,
Boston merchant recently touring
Austria, Hungary and Germany, tells
an incident which is typical of the
once gay Austrian capital.
He went into home 'whereaa mere
slip of girl was the housewife for a
family of six. Seeing her poverty he
gave her some money. Tears stood in
her eyes as she thanked him, adding:
THAT is beautiful Now we can
have something to eat until Saturday
Fathers pay isn't enough for us all; ii
always runs out by Thursday and then
We go hungry until Saturday.
Mother and one of the sisters died !;
they couldn't stand it any more. It's
sad-but it gives us more room, for
we all have to cook and wash and
sleep in this one room. That's. the
only way to keep warm in the winter.
That is fairly typical, said Filene.
They live and suffer and die in one
room. Coal is the ultimate answer to
all Of Austrias present trouble, says
Filene, who believes that the same
agencies which made Austria an Isle.
and in the midst of Eastern Europe
should see to it that she is provided
with the means of livelihoOd-namely,
coal sufficient to run her industries
plus the opportunity to export these
goods when made.
Some scheme, such as administra-
ton by the league of nations or other
international tribunal, must look after
Austria's case, he believes. He would
not say directly whether he favored a
junction of Austria and Germany
Austria Is destined for, another ter
rible winter, he believes. This view
is also shared by American Relief AS
ISOLATION officials long engaged in
child relief work in Austria. While
original plans call for gradual retreat
from Europeans work, it is now found
that 100000 children must be cared
-
for in the food line tthis, winter and
that 100000 must be clothed. $50
Meantime there is considerable ag
itation in Austria for a reuniting with
Germany, the advocates of this plan
holding that Austria would then have
access to coal and would have,an ,oper
route fol. its, exports, AS, it is now
she is hemmed in by unfriendly groups
and unable to get the materials fol
her industry.

to build so many war ships at a cost
of 75O,O00,OO0 yen. AS a matter of
fact, it is reported that the naval au-
thorities will ask for an addition of
100,O0O,O00 yen to the original allot-
ment of 120OO0,0OO yen for the next
financial year. The rate of this in
crease is IS per cent, and if the cost
of the entire program is calculated on
this basis. the total figure will be
100000, 900 yen instead of the origl-
nal estimate of 75O000,O0O yen. 1t is
likely however, that a reduction in
prices may occur, and this will re-
duceathe rate of increase TO between
so and 70 per cent. Unless the naval
estimates are amended considerably,
additions must be asked for every
year. and this may give rise to Sc
rious political questions. This causes
us to wonder whether the navol pro-
gram will really be completed by
1927"
At the same time Japan is busy
building large fleet of submarines
which are probably to be used as a
line of defense across the Pacific APP
proaches to Japan, it appearing likely
that Japan's newly acquired control
of chain of various groups of ISL
ands north of the Equator. will give
her the chance to establish a chain of
stations for these vessels.
The press reports that while the
empire at present possesses about a
score of submarines, she expects to
have 800 when the big new program
is completed, of which so are to be
ready by 1923 At present about IS
are said to be under construction. 1t
is also reported that while the cost
of these vessels was formerly about
1000 yen per ton, they now cost 5000
yen ton. and that the Mitsubishi ship
yard, which is building a number of
them. is about 100000 yen on its con
tract.

tie Ground Academy of Franklin Fri
day afternoon, playing on the Franklin
gridiron, forfeited the game to Capt.
Max HardiSon's Central High School
team.
The forfeiture followed the Academy
teams refusal to play because of the
rul ng of the referee with reference
TO an on-side play. Officials of the
game contended that B. G. A.. had at
tempted to make an on-side play,
when really the play executed was
nothing more than punt. 4r q

no fault of the Columbia team that

Up until the Franklin team decided
to quit, Central High School was play
ing a great game. Every man was
playing jam-up ball, and it was appar-
ent that the high schoolers had the
edge on the Williamson countians.
Central High School has had a

MESSAGE FROM STATE COMMIT
/ TEE ENCOURAGED DEMOCRATS
Ian ..tf WEDNESDAY,. F's'

Voters whose choice has been de.
feated in an election are always ready
to catch at straws. This was shown
again "Wednesday when local demo-
Gratis received a telegram from the
state democratic headquarters an,
nouncing that Roberts was elected
and that all newspaper reports had
been furnished by the measley repub-
Leans. Immediately the news spread
and The Herald was beseiged with in
quilies. Being a newspaper and not
a political machine it had to dash all
these false hopes to the ground by Civ
ing the facts.
AS a matter of, fact not a single
county report or state report publish
ed by The Herald came from the head
quarters of either party. They were
reports from the several counties fur
nished by reliable, trustworthy and
experienced correspondents. Some Of
these correspondents are democrats
and some are republicans and other
have no politics. But they are on the
ground and they get their informa-
ton from the actual returns of the
election If they were caught taking"
any election returns they would be
fired without ceremony. That is why
the news of an election in a newspa.
per is so much more reliable than that
furnished by partisan Office holding
committees.
