THE agitation for better paid teach
ers in our schools is bearing fruit. Next
fall when school opens the teachers will
be drawingasalaries that are more In
keeping with the Importance of the
services they are called upon to render
in the community, than heretofore.
However,. the problems which these
better paid teachers have to solve in
the training of the boys and girls are
the same under high wages as they
were under low wages, and the teacher
who enters the service of the school
under increased pay may find that the
community will be less tolerant with
the teachers handling of these prob
lens than before. The period of the
war with its disintegrating influences
upon life in general has also affected
the home and school influence over the
children. The homes are realizing that
the old checks upon the freedom and
pleasures of children of school age
ought to be re-established. It is not
wholesome for the boys and girls of
high school age to play the game of life
as if they were adults. The exper
fenced teacher is in accord with the
parents on this proposition; but it is
question if the parents without the
support of the teacher, or the teacher
without the support of the parents, can
solve this problem satisfactorily. The
full cooperation of the home and the
school has never been more desirable
than just now. Such cooperation can
be had only through the willingness of
parents and teachers to come together
and try to find out what the problems
are and mutually agree on how to pro-
coed, in order that there may be har-
mony in the policies of the school and
the homes. 1t is matter of adjust
ment between the interests of the home
and the school in such manner as to
benefit the children of the community
to the highest possible degree.

RESULT OF CROSS BREEDING
Qualities of Domestic Animals I'M
proved by the Addition of Blood
of Other Species.

The Indian of Alaska crosses his
siedge dogs with the wild wolf, and so
has produced a dog which Is enormous
ly strong, can live on very little, can
stand any degree of cold, and which
can pull sledge better than any other
animal Of its size.
The dog and the fox have been
crossed, also the dog and the jackal.
Even the lion and the tiger have been
mated. In a group of trained animals
seen in New York few years ago was
q lion-tiger. It had a tigers body
family striped, but the head of lion
with name.
The European pheasant, which, from
in-breeding, was becoming liable to dis
ease, has been enormously improved
and strengthened by crossing with the
wild Asiatic pheasant brought from
Central Asia In the same way new va
rieties of deer have been obtained by
crossing the small Persian deer with
the European fallOw.
The ordinary white ferret is an ami
able creature, but rather slow. Crossed
with the savage little wild stOat, the
result is the fitchet, smaller than the
ferret. but much more active and
fierce, and the finest creature in exist
ence for working either rats or rabbits.

THE individualist is as a rule poor
party man. He has opinions of SO def
mite nature that it is hard for him to
Weld to those who differ with him. 1t
is not in his nature to make comprom-
ises, to give and take in order to ad-
vance the essentials. His mental hab-
its make him stickler for principle,
and an advocate of theories. To take
half loaf to him is moral cowardice;
if he can not get the whole loaf, he will
starve. The individualist is intolerant
of any change and of any condition
that impose upon him the demand to
act out of harmony with his notions of
what is for the best. He is tolerant
only of those who agree with him.. He
may be right, but he is always certain
that he is right. He is impatient of
those who move in wide detours in Or
der to reach a destination that he COW
cts; he wants the goal in one straight
jump. The path of life is to him the
airline; the arduous CLIMB around OBJ
stacles, taking time as an assistant to
finish safely, looks to him like failure.
The intelligent and we'll informed indi-
vidualist is often an idealist, courage
Gus and aggressive. He sponsors new
and, sometimes, wholesome measures,
and causes others TO think, but he sell
dom possesses the patience to see the
measures carried into practical opera
ton. That is done by the men who I'M
derstand the power of compromise and
cooperation, and who are willing TO
abide by the law of growth and natural
evolution, rather than by the fiat Of
the spontaneous creation of genius.

British Coal Abundant.

For her size, Great Britain has mora
and better coal than any other coun-
try in the world. The coal seams,
lying one below another to an I'M
known depth, not infrequently crop
ping out at the surface, are proof that
tropical conditions once prevailed in
the latitude of these islands. The
district which is now Great Britain
was connected in primeval times with
the continent, and the coal of England
doubtless runs under the channel and
the southern part of the North sea,
continuing in the coal fields of north
ern France, Belgium and Flanders

FRIDAY. JULY 80, 1920.

WITH waste paper Of all sorts bring
ing the owner one cent pound, it
ought not to be necessary to appeal to
the public to save paper and sell it.
Still 65 per cent of the paper is wasted.
Wood pulp is scarce. Scandinavia is
having big market in Europe, so is
Canada having in England; the U. S.
gets that much less for her mills. A
ton of waste paper returned to our own
mills corresponds to almost a ton of
wood pulp. Save your waste paper,
and send for the junk man.
