teacher Shortage Still Acute

The teacher shortage still re-
mains a menace to the public
schools according to preliminary
reports made public today by the
National Education Association.
Replies to questionaires sent out
by the Association have come
from all sections Of the United
States. These reports show that
in places where the teachers sal
aries have been increased one
hundred per cent or more the sit
uation is nearly always satisfac-
tory. But such places are CON-
paratively few, and in localities
where salaries have been increas-
ed fifty per cent or less the teach
er shortage is commonly greater
than a year ago. Rural communi-
ties are hardest hit. Signed re-
ports from superintendents of
manycounties indicate thata third
of their rural schools cannot open
for want of teachers. Ten thous-
ands of schools will be in charge
of teachers who have had no pro-
fessional preparation and whose
academic training barely exceeds
that Of the children they teach.
Relief from this serious situa-
ton, which imperils the stability
of American rural life, will be
sought from the next session of
Congress. Renewed efforts will
be made to obtain the passage Of
the Smith -Towner Bill, which
creates a department of educa-
ton with a secretary in the Pres
ident's cabinet and provides fed
erai aid Of $100, 600, 900 for edu-
cation.

LIBERTY BOND COUPONS
WILL SOON Be DUE

Holders of Liberty Bonds from
which all the coupons have been
been clipped are requested to
take the securities Immediately
to their banks here which will
transmit them to the Federal
Reserve Bank of Richmond
where they will be exchanged
for bonds having coupons cover
ing all interest payments for the
rest of the life of the bonds.
Word to this effect has been sent
out from Washington
Moreover, whenever Liberty
Bonds paying A per cent interest
are sent in, new bonds paying
a Ia per cent interest will be
issued.
In this federal reserve district
many Liberty Bonds were bought
which when issued carried only
six interest coupons. These are
known as temporary" bonds.
Their coupons have fallen due.
The government now wishes to
issue permanent" bonds in
their place.
The additional one-fourth of
one per cent interest offered on
the unconyerted A per cent bonds
is now being lost by the bond
holders. The higher rate of in

SPEAKING OF HEADLIGHTS

If the State Law requires 9
light on both ends of an Auto
mobile and a person to dim his
lights when meeting another,
which is the greatest violation
to allow tail lights to 60 unnotice-
ed or to allow head lights as
bright as possible so that it's
dangerous to get out on the high,
way after dark?
The law requiring headlights
to be dimed on approaching
another car at night is a good
one and should be ridgedly en-
forced. 1t is too late to require
a man to dim his lights after
some fellow has turned his car
over and broken his own, or his
wife's or friends neck all on ac-
count of some smart alec who is
too stubborn either provide anti
glare lens for his car or to turn
Oh his DINNERS when meeting
car.
Some might say it would work
a hardship on the Ford owners.
All new Fords have DINNERS on
them and the old ones can get
frosted glass for their lamps.
Lets have our lights fixed So that
the other fellow can get some
pleasure out of driving at nights.
