New York. - Men will be trained in

mer in buildings of the University OF
Wisconsin. 1t is known as the Summer
School of Community Leadership and
is conducted by the American City Blu
reau, Tribune Building, New York.
This unique school is an outgrowth
of an exceptional demand for capable
men in the commerce. and civic Or
ganization field More than 600 posi-
lions as managers, or assistant man.
ayers of Chambers Of Commerce were
filled during the past twelve months
most of them at salaries from $4,000 to
$4,000 and more.
These men are being recruited from
many fields of work. OF 521 Chamber
of Commerce secretaries who replied
to recent QUESTIONABLE - about 20
per cent. - were holding their first
positions in this field. This same ques-
tionnaire indicated that about IS per
cent of the men engaged in this work
are former newspaper men; IL per
cent. were retailers, IA per cent. edu-
Gators IA per cent. in transportation
work, II per cent. statesmen, 10 per
cent. In manufacturing. Others have
come from the insurance field, state,
county and federal government serv-
ice, the law, real estate, banking,
wholesaling, advertising, accounting,
agriculture and others equally diverse
occupations.
Chamber of Commerce work calls
for men who can combine keen busi-
ness sense with a wide vision and
broad human sympathies. The work of
the manager may involve organizing a
credit bureau, leading citizens move
ment to bring about better form OF
city government, arranging for the
arbitration of industrial disputes, or
ganizing and financing corporation
to provide needed housing or a score
of other equally varied undertakings.
The Summer School Of Community
Leadership will occupy twelve days
August 16 to 81. This will be its sixth
annual session. Last year 1871 students
attended, and it is expected that the at
tendance will be larger this year.

LACK OF TEACHERS
SERIOUS PROBLEM
Solution At Moment Is SeIec-
ton Of County Boards
of Education
Every Real, Fine, True, Red-Blooded
Man and Woman In Kentucky Urged
to Get Busy at Once and Interest
Themselves In School Matters.

Every county In Kentucky was short
Of rural teachers last year. Every
county In Kentucky will be short
teachers again this season. This is a
serious proposition especially as the
number Of men and women passing
the examinations lately held for teach
er's primary certificates was quite
small. OF course, the new minimum
salary Of $500 per month for rural
teachers will help the situation In the
future; but the best possible solution
OF the problem right at this moment is
the selection and election Of a strong
County Board Of Education at the
November election.
The reader should not think Of this
problem az strictly Kentucky affair
for It 10 nation wide and extremely
serious. DR.. P, P. Claxton, Commits
sioner Of Education Of the United
States recently asserted before the
National Citizens Conference at
Washington, d. c.;
"The new conditions require that
the schools shall be more efficient and
more effective than they have been
In the past and we are faced with the
danger that they may not be as eff
fective as In the past. We are con
fronted with great shortage OF
teachers, and there seems to be little
chance OF immediate relief, Accord
ing to the most careful estimates that
can be secured. between three hun
dred and four hundred thousand chill
dren were deprived of schooling this
past year because Of school closed as
the result Of shortage.
Even more serious is the rapidly
growing number of sub standard
teachers, More than half the teach.
ers Of the nation-850, 000-are not
prepared on any reasonable basis for
the work OF teaching, reasonable
basis being understood to mean the
minimum standard that progressive
communities have long insisted upon
two years Of professional training
beyond the four-year high-school
course
"a conservative figure for the nun.
Der OF new teachers that will be re-
CURED this fall Is 10000. 1t Is more
likely TO be 10000, and 1t may reach
10000 The graduates Of normal
schools this year will be 20 per cent
fewer than in 1915; they will total
about 10000. II we add to these the
largest possible number we can con-
ceive Of from other teachertralning
instructions, we shall have at the out
side 10000 prepared teachers to oil
the vacancies, or deficit of at least
$4,000"
Good County Boards Of Education
have always been needed In each and
every county in the state; but they
are today a vital and absolute netes.
sity for the welfare Of the county, the
state and the nation. Every real,
fine, true, red-blooded man and woman
In Kentucky should get busy at once
and see to 1t that the new Boards OF
Education are composed Of citizens
who will do big and constructive work
for the boys and girls on the farms.

ELECT STRONG
COUNTY BOARD
Thinking and Patriotic People
In Each County Are
Urged To Act
Problem Of the Rural School VIII Be
Well on Its Way Toward Solution
When Interest In School Matters 10
Manifest.

The editor realizes the crisis In edu-
cutional matters which Kentucky and
the whole country is facing, so he has
been giving the readers of this paper
II series Of articles, statements and
cartoons to help put Kentucky on the
educational map. The reader recalls,
OF course, that the last legislature
passed some strong new school laws
but with the Multiplicity Of new laws
on the statute books, he or she Is
quite apt to have rather hsxy Idea
of the law creating the new County
Boards Of Education to be elected
next November. As the act creating
thesr County Board Of Education Is
too long to be printed In full, the
editor Is giving an outline Of It below
The new County Board Of Educa-
ton Ia to be composed Of ave men,
bers elected from the county at large
The candidates for this office are Sc
cured by nifty voters signing petit
ton to have each name placed on the
ballot ANY number Of candidates
may be placed on this separate ballot
which shall carry no party emblem
or device, save the words School

Ing the largest number of votes shall
become members Of the County Board

lects county superintendent Of
schools and decides upon the salary
which can not under the law, be less
than $500 year. The board will
also appoint In each school district Q
trustee who shall look after the school
property; but shall have no voice In
the County Board.
This same County Board OF Educa-
ton shall fix the rate OF taxation for
school purposes in the county; but
before doing so shall, with the help
OF the county superintendent, make
an temiZcd and detailed budget Of
all school expenses.
This act, also, provides that the
County Board Of Education shall ap-
point at least one attendance officer
whose duties shall be to compel the
regular attendance OF all pupil chill.
dren at school as provided by law.
II is needless for the editor to say
In conclusion that this new law will
do much toward taking the county
schools out Of politics. If the thinking
and patriotic people Of the whole
country will interest themselves in the
selection and election of strong
County Board Of Education. the prob
lem Of the rural school in the county
will be well on Its way toward solu.

 Price tendencies were mainly down ward. although losses, except among selected issues, were partly relieved when the money market developed un- expected ease and the shorts found it expedient to cover.
 Call money opened at eight per cent, a reflection of yesterdays sharp rise, but relaxed to six per cent in the last hour on a surplus of offerings, to which out of town banks made sub- stantial contributions.
