MEMORIAL

The death of our dear mother, Mrs.
O. B. Mattingly, who passed away,
Dec. 80, 1919, at the home Of her
only daughter, Mrs. ID. {. Benton, in
Louisville, was great shock to her
family and friends.
Her place can not be filled, no
mothers can. So often | recall that
beautiful legcnd-That at Creations
Dawn, an angel came down to earth,
seeking something to take back to
Heaven. 1t returned with boquet
of flowers, a baby's smile, and a. mo-
theirs love. When it reached the
pearly gates, The Aower had withered
the baby's smile had vanished, but the
mothers love was found to be as pure
and eternal as the water that flowed
by the Heavenly Throne. And al
the angels exclaimed, There is moth
ing pure enough for Heaven but
mothers love. From one who knew
her to be such mother.

MINIMUM WAGE
OF SIS PROPOSED
For County Teachers in the
Program of School Reform
In Kentucky.

Frankfort, KY, Jan. 21.-The COM
plete program of school reform in
Kentucky which will search the
system from top to bottom, awaits
action on the constitutional amend
ment making the state superinten-
dents an appointive instead of an
elective Office, and giving the gen.
eral assembly authority to prescribe
the method of distributing the state
school fund for the pay of city and
county teachers.
If that passes, a thorough reor-
ganization of the state department
of education will be proposed The
bipartisan state board OF education
probably will be appointed by the
governor for a term of eight years,
but the terms for the members will
be so arranged that no governor
ever will be able to control board.
The state board will elect the state
superintendent, who will receive a
sufficient salary to interest one of the
best educators in the country.
Technical qualifications also will
be attached to certain of the clerical
force in the department.
This measure remains to be per-
ton bill is ready for submission. 1t
provides for county superintendent
of technical qualifications and holding
a certificate of administration and
supervision from the state depart
ment. The county board will be COM
! posed of FIVE members from the
county at large outside the cities OF
the first classes, on nonpartlsan
/ ticket The election will be the hrst
Saturday in April. The board will
elect all principals and teachers and
trustee for each district and have
right to delimit the districts with a
minimum of forty pupils in each DIS
trict, and to consolidate districts.
A minimum tax rate of 80 cents and
a poll tax of ST. for schools and
minimum wage of SIS the month Tor
teachers are included in the county
bills.
The constitutional amendments and
"a bill providing for an educational
survey already have been introduced.
In view of the fact that existing
contracts for books have hve years to
run yet, the pressing need for re-
form in state textbooks adoptions
may not be felt keenly enough at this
session 10 push any measure to the
front in competition with the heavy
bills through the legislative calendars,
but two ideas are being discussed
, One calls for free text books which
, would require 5 cent addition to the
tax rate or a bond issue of more than
million.
The other is a combination of state
and county adoption. The state board
, or some other body would select q
|, list of acceptable books on each sub
I, ject on competitive bids and sample:
. and prices would be filled in the stat,
( department of education. Then eacf
! county could adopt from the selected
y list at prices quoted

CONSERVATION
OF BIRDS OVER US.
Has Become Important Factor
Many Kinds Found To Be
Destructive.

Now that the beneficial species of
birds are fortified by ample protec-
tive legislation, the importance be-
comes apparent of perfecting methods
for protecting crops against damage
by birds, says the Chief of the Bureau
of Biological Survey, United States
Department of Agriculture. A policy
OF bird conservation that will best
serve the interests of the farmer, he
says involves not only thorough APP
probation of the value of beneficial
species but adequate attention to the
control of troublesome ones. Follow
ing out that line of endeavor, inves-
LEGATIONS have been made Of number
OF species complained of as trouble
some, and in some cases special rul-
ings have been made under the migra-
tory bird treaty act to permit control
measures.

as ever to rice when opportunity off
ers. and in order to control them an
open season has been declared on
bobolinks in Pennsylvania and the
Atlantic Coast States from New Jer-
sey southwark to and including
Florida Certain species of wild duck,
also protected under the act, were
found to be destructive in the rice
fields OF California, and special
order was issued permitting rice
growers to kill them out OF season.
| In the Arkansas rice fields a special
order had to be issued permitting the
shooting of ducks at night. Meadow
| larks in South Carolina were found
to be inhicting severe damage to
sprouting corn and oats. In order to
afford proper relief, says the chief OF
the Survey, permission has been given
farmers to drive the birds from the
fields with shotguns, if necessary.
| Complaints were received from LOUIS
lana that night herons were menace

suggested to the bureau that permits
