LINWOOD s. PRATT
 HAS HAD SUCCESSFUL
 CAREER .'S EDUCATOR

LinwOod s. Pratt, one of the two candidates for the republican nomina- tion for the office of superintendent of public instruction, has a long record of success as school man. MT. Pratt is a native of Massachusetts, who has taught school for 20 years and has practiced law for 10 years. After fin ishing high school course he was graduated from the Bridgewater, (Mass.) Normal school. After that he spent two years at Harvard university but was not graduated. He has suc- cessfully built up three school sys- tems.
 He has been resident of Arizona since 1913. Before resuming teaching in this state he took the senior course in the Tempe Normal, finishing in nine months, was graduated and now holds diploma from that institution. During his stay there he was given A grades; 20 of these were "A" and four were "B." This is the highest rank ever given by the Tempe Normal school to any one. For the last three years he has been the highest paid ru- ral school teacher in the state.
 MT. Pratt is trained and expei- enced organizer and disciplinarian. The platform of Mir. Pratt is:
 ''If I am elected state superintend- ent, will use all the power and inhu- ence of my office to secure such raising of the standards for teachers in the public schools of this state, that no person shall be certificated to teach unless that person shall have first shown both by credentials and by ex- animation his knowledge of the sub ject matter to be taught and his abil- ity to teach it.
 "In my opinion, we are hearing too much about what is due the school teacher; in my opinion, it is time that we heard something of what is due the school children. If I am elected state superintendent, I shall be willing to spend all the money that is necessary to give adequate education and train ing to all the children of the state. The rural schools need about twice the money that they are getting. do not think the taxpayers generally be- grudge the money that is paid for good schools; but the money that is paid for the support of some of our schools is worse than wasted; and the money that is paid for others of our schools is largely wasted. l do not think that it is an extravagant state ment to say that there is more money wasted on schools than upon any oth- CT department of government. When school men gether together, they are rarely heard, boasting to each other of some added service that they have been able to render the community nor of some greater stimulation that they have been able to give their pu- pills; but when school men gather to- gether their chief boast among them selves is the increased amount of money that they have been able to put across" from the taxpayers.
 "If I am elected state superintend- ent I will give sharp business ad- ministration of the office, with com potent business supervision of the ex- penditures for schools. With the elimination of waste both in the pur-

 It is said of one of our local young men by one of his friends that he re- gently proposed to the fair damsel of his choice. He had made his declara- tion of love, and it had been heard with lowered head and bushes. But he could not help saying something to fill in while he waited for her answer. "When say that I have never loved til now," he said, Cit is not an empty word. My lips never touched the lips of any woman, except my mothers; my hand has never carress- ed woman's head; I do not dance; my arm"
 A look of strange bewilderment came over the beautiful face, and the deep eyes grew large as she listened. "Is all that true, George ?" she ask ed, with hushed breath.
 Ut is" he answered. "It is literally true"
 The look of wonderment changed into a look of icy sternness, as she rose to her full height and confronted him.
 "Then for heavens sake, George, she said, Ego somewhere and practice until you get record" Once dear to my heart were the
 scenes of my childhood, When fond recollections recall them
 to view;
 The orchard, the meadow, the deep
 tangled wildwood, Have lost all their cunning to me and

 Mahogany counters, all covered with
 goblets, The big frosted mirrors, ensconsed in
 design; The broad expansed barkeep who
 wielded the paddle, Are all, in my judgment, by far more
 sublime.
 The little round table that stood in the corner,
 The ravenous thirst that inveigfeG me there; The white-aproned vendor who made
 friendship warmer, Had raptures for me which none can
 compare.
 These glad days are over, their joy is
 passing, And things are no more as they once
 used to seem; Last night I ate salad and olives and

IrOleSsor IL. A. EaStDufn, 0f the Normal school says that several years ago, when he was teaching in a small school, one of his pupils answered an examination question about the five senses thusly:
 "The five senses are sneezing, sob ping, yawning, coughing. By the sixth sense is meant an extra one some folks have. It is snoring."
 Asked Professor J. F. Walker the other day whether hen sits or sest He replied:

 Charlie Clark's young son, Peter, came home the other night so bruised and dirty that his mother was much distressed. "Mercy, how on earth did you get your face and clothes into such state" she asked. "I was try ing to keep a little boy from being licked" said Pete. "Why, that was fne," sail Mrs. Clark. q am proud of you. Who was the little boy?" "Me," was the unexpected reply.
 Mrs. Fleming, who is here from New Orleans visitnig her son, George Fleming ,and his wife, overheard the following conversation between two colored people shortly before she started west:

SEES STEEL TRADE
SURPRISINGLY GOOD
+. G. Grace. Head Of Bethle-
hem. Optimistic at Meet
ing Of Directors.

The steel business to-day is sur
prislngly good" Eugene G, Grace. presi-
dent OF the Bethlehem steel Corpora
ton. declared I'm statement issued
yesterday afternoon following the meet
ing OF that company's directors. Mr..
Grace said that prices would have 10
recede to some extent rs natural and
healthy development. That the recess
sion will go far he does not believe.
The Bethlehem steel Corporation Is OPP
Grating at approximately so per cent.
of capacity, or about 10 per cent. less
than in September. That decrease. he
said, was due entirely to the falling off
in new business.
The value of orders on tho books of
the corporation on September 20. Mr.
Grace said, was sl95, 600. 900, as contrasted
with s251. 10000 at the beginning OF the
year That figure represents, according
to MIR. Grace, all cancellations and the
revisions made in price schedules. The
completion of work on ships for the
United States Navy and the Emergency
Fleet Corporation accounts for prac-
tically all that reduction OF orders. The
corporations three major shipbuildinR
plants have sufficient work on hand 70
insure full operations throughout 1921.
The new dry dock installation In the
Fore River. Mass, plant. Mr.. Grace de-
clared, with adequate repair facilities,
would bc completed by the first OF the
year. Additional docks are being con-
structed in the Baltimore and the san
Francisco plants. II ls believed by the
management that those dry dock and re-
pair facilities. operating as a part OF the
shipbuilding plants In Boston, Baltimore
and San Francisco. will prove q valuable
asset TO that branch OF the corporations
business
"The general situation now existing
Is but n natural consequence OF n long
sustained and abnormal demand on the
capacity OF the steel industry" Mr..
Grace added. by the adjustment OF I'M
natural conditions. which is necessary
and inevitable, and by accomplishing this
In an orderly manner, rs is being done.
we shall arrive at new basis for con-
fldence and constructive progress
THE fact that during the last five
years very large percentage Of the
output OF steel in the world has been
diverted TO war purposes has resulted
IN tremendous shortage OF commercial
steel. To fill this shortage and provide
for the normal demands OF trade will
result in again taxing the productive
capacity OF the steel industry, once
normal purchasing power is re-
established"
The regular quarterly dividends of
IN per cent on both classes OF the
company's common stock were declared
by the directors of the Bethlehem Steel
Corporation yesterday payable on jan
uary 3. 1921. TO stockholders OF record

COTTON MARKET.
NEW ISSUE :

Inc cotton market was uncertain i'm its
general price movements yesterday. but
late in the session the trend wns decidedly
upward. some months rising more than
one-half cent a pound from Wednes-
days final bids. Interest throughout the
session centred on the coal strike situa-
ton In Great Britain. The market sold
sharply lower early in the session on less
favorable reports, but when official news
that the strike was settled subject to a
vote OF the miners was received later in
the day the market rallied brislSly. Sell
ers included Southern interests and local
Wall Street operators and buying was
chiefly for covering for profits or support
by the trade. Bulls stressed the less fa-
vorable weather I'm the cotton belt. The
official map showed lower temperatures
and detailed bulletins noted frosts in
several Western belt centres.
Early business was active and opening
trade was mixed. Firsts prices were 20
to 40 points net lower on pressure from

part of disappointed longs The market
