TEACHERS PROBLEM SOLVED
by GUPT. j, C. MUERMAN.

Prof. ]. G.. Muerman, lecturer on
rural economics at the teachers in
stitutes, was In Meridian Monday, on
his way to Colorado, after attending
the institute at Nampa. Mr.. Muerman
said the problem of the country
teacher is serious one, both from
the fact that 1t Is hard to get suit
able place to live and from the fact
that every teacher of ability is
soon secured by the larger town. AS
to the town teachers, he thinks the
boarding problem will in the END
require that rooms be furnished the
teachers by the district perhaps in
building housekeeping rooms near
the school building. He said, also.
that since the towns are paying more
for their teachers the patrons should
be given equal or better service than
Of old. He especially discouraged the
teacher living In the city and going to
an interurban town to teach A teacher
should be part of the community
life--the place where the school is
should be the society home of the
teacher, for a town, although small,
that is good enough to pay good
wages to teacher is good enough to
stay in after four o'clock in the af-
ternoon.
Also, notice." said Mr.. Muerman,
that usually teacher who likes to
stay in the town after school hours
finds people who want her to
board with them.And sometimes it Is
a young man of our very own COM
munity who wants her to quit the
school and go in partnership in a
boarding house built for two."

FEDERAL TIRES NEED
HUGE ANNUAL SUPPLY

THE enormity of the automotive
industry has been emphasized by some
figures given out at the national au-
tcmobile shows in New York and Chi
cago," says J. IA Knight, of Allen
Knight, local Federal tire agents.
There are now in this country 1872
factories producing passenger cars IN
more than 400 different styles and
models. To provide these cars with
tires will mean the importation OF
from 175. 900 to 200. 900 tons Of rubber
10 per cent of which will be made
into 40.OOO,O00 castings and an equal
number of tubes.
THAT record has been made in the
last 25 years since the first successful
automobile was produced. Surely. IL
means an abundance of work for time
makers to say nothing Of the great un-
developed fields ahead"

Dead Weight Estimatcd-"one of tn

Dead Weight Estimatcd-"One of the
fundamental reasons why the Max
well truck has been so successful is
because 1t is hauling about 400
pounds less dead weight than any
other truck of like capacity" is the
statement OF l.. G. Freeman, executive
engineer of the Maxwell Motor Com
pany. 1.-THE Maxwell chassis weighs
1855 pounds while the average weight
OF other trucks built to carry 5000
pounds is about 1900 pounds. Thus
more Maxwell energy is devoted IN
carrying the load and less is exerted
IN Unnecessary dead weight.
