NAMING OF BOARD
MAY BE HELPFUL
With Official Estimate Lacking
Number is Believed to be Hun
dreds of Thousands.

New York. April 13.-Interest in
4he nationwide strikes OF rebellous
railroad workers centered tonight IN
WASHINGTON where union labor lead
.ars saw ray of hope in the appoint
mert Of President Wilson's labor
board provided to deal with labor
disputes. Meanwhile, officers of the
,lepartmeht of justice in Washington
announce that evidence of activity of
the 1. W. w. toward melting and
maintaining unauthorized strikes con-
-tinued to accumulate and that they
saw signs of an attempt to expand the
rail strike into lone phase of the
world revolution"
While official estimates were lack
lng, the number of persons who have
been made idle by the strike, directly
or indirectly, runs into the hundreds
of thousands. One hundred thous-
and were reported out of work IN
Ohio alone, and thousands of others
were idle in Pennsylvania and other
states with industrial plants continu-
ing to suspend operations.
Railroad officials, while admitting
the gravity of the situation show an
Improvement in demoralized freight
and passenger service in the East,
witch now seems to be the main bat
tie ground. the strikes in the West
apparently having subsidized to large
extent.
The first positive act of interven-
ton was reported today from New
Orleans, where department of justice
agents raided strikers meeting and
arrested six leaders on federal war
rants charging them with interfering
with the United States mails.
, There was a growing alarm of
shortage of perishable food and coal
in the East, especially in and around
New York but shipments continued
TO arrive though with increasing
'rTegularity.
The war department today made
available to state and municipal au-
thorities surplus supplies Of frozen
beef. canned roast beef and bacon,
which have been held in storage in a
score Of railroad centers. Hundreds
of motor trucks also were being
pressed into service to bring food to
this and other Eastern cities.

PRESIDENT F. M. DYSON
PREDICTS SHORT CROP

Columbia, April 12.-Col. X. M.
Mixson, president of the South Caro-
lima division of the American Cotton
association, has addressed the follow
ine letter to the holders of cotton IN
South Carolina:
eve are facing late spring.
Weather conditions are very mucn
AGAINST the farmer. The continuous
rains are very much to the advant-
age of the boil weevil. The land
which has been broken, will be run
together and packed, almost as much
as it was before being broken. Inc
fertilizer factories are hampered IN
delivering their goods sold-a very
small per cent has been shipped.
Every condition fore-shadows late
nlanting in the face Of the fact that
early planting and rapid maturity OF
crop is necessary under boil weeVli
conditions if we are to make any
thing like a fine crop. In fact IN my
onjnion we are facing not only an
other short crop of cotton but per-
haps the shortest crop in five years
"Present conditions IN Europe
cannot continue. Christianity and
humanity demand that these people
be allowed to go 70 work that they
NAV have the opportunity of making
living. A resumption of work
means tremendous demand for raw
material This, combined with
weather conditions and boil weevll
infection, means a much higher price
for cotton. The man who is selling
for present prices is in my OPINION
losing ten cents per pound. 1t looks
to me that so cent cotton is assured.
As above stated Europe must be al
lowed to resume business. 1t is either
this or the world must feed them.
This we can't do. When this is done.
YOU Will, in my opinion, see IS cent
cotton. Don't sacrifice your cotton

Failure of Our Rural Schools


The state of rural education in America is
thing than regrettable condition. It is plight
The plight is the hopeless because America
prides itself it's public school system its rural
school system where according to facts published by
the United States Bureau of Education the blind
leading into the ditch with little prospect
ever getting out.
More than half the school population of America lives
in rural and village districts and taught by about
three hundred thousand teachers Government statistics
show that at one-half these
girls and boys At least hundred thousand of them
sixteen seventeen and eighteen years of while
more than one-half twenty or less.
Because these teachers young they
sarily inexperienced immature in judgment and other
WISE poorly equipped for their work. OF onehaf this
corps it truly be said their inefhciency is pitifu
The annual turn Over in this of three hundred
thousand is hundred and thirty thousand The
average teaching period of the teacher than
two years.
Of this three hundred thousand at least sixty thous
and poorly educated be unable to meet the
meagre standards of the lowest grade of teachers
certificates
These teachers were given emergency certificates
of the shortage of better material And at
that there than million of children in
America out of school because not enough teachers
be found to teach them. And than a million
now under teachers who have not had more than
eighth grade education-many of them less.
This is not the end of the list of indictments against
the rural school 1t is found that native born iterates
proportionaely six times in the rural
districts in the urban DISTRICTS because in the Cities
schools larger and better equipped the of the
teacher is higher the wages better and the
pulsory attendance laws better enforced.
The test that showed one-fourth of young
unable to write intelligent letter get the
out of also showed that the greater number
of these rural school districts The small
rural school failure educator hinderance
to the entry of better education.
What is the remedy? Is it the total and final aboli
ton of little rural schools and their mergence
sodated schools large that they may afford good
equipment and high grade of instruction
enjoyed by the city schools?
We doubt it.
Our remedy is higher and harder requirements for
teachers certificate accompanied by that will make
inducemen for people of the best intelligence and
teaching ability to take up teaching life profession
Must this be supported by general taxation? We
must give this considerations Journal.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re

beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.
Whenever her hair took on that duh,
faded or streaked appearance. this sim
pie mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date, Nowadays. by asking at
any drug store for bottle OF "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get this famous old preparation, Inn
proved by the addition OF other ingred
tents, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
\hair.
"a wen-known downtown druggist
says 1t darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell II has
been applied You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with It and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at n time. BY morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another APP
plication or two, II becomes beautifully
dark and glossy. adv,
