Henry Holman Writes OF His Trip
Trim Abroad.

Henry Holman, a Dickinson boy
and son OF IL. Holman OF South
Dickinson landed In London last
week. He will represent a Pittsburg.
Pa, firm In Europe. In letter TO
his father written on shlpboard he
says:
The sailing has been very good
and we are not sea sick. This is not
a very fast boat and It will take Us
about . days 20 cross the ocean. We
are going to England first and ex-
pect TO land Tuesday at Plymouth
aud then take the train 70 London.
We may stay in England about a
week and then go to Holland on our
way to Germany. There was an
awful storm In New York the day we
left, 50 much snow that the street
cars could hardly get through. The
storm made the boat cold the first
day but IL has been nice since then.
Our boat is like big luxurious hotel
with plenty OF good food They serve
three big meals day with music
and everything and a little broth and
sandwiches at 1890 and tea ut 80.
am afraid won't reduce any on
meals a day. II Is a British boat
and OF course there are lots OF Bng-
lish but there are people from near
ly every nation, The British are
sort Of conceited and II is sort of fun
TO tell them that the pound sterling
IS only worth $3.65 when II used to
be nearly $500.
Suppose II costs much more to
cross the ocean now than when you
came TO America One first class |
passage runs from $1,000 to sever
al hundred more, depending upon the
room you have. Ny company gave
me $4,000 after paying for my pas
sage and l suppose I'll need most of
1t. We rented our house so we will
have no expense there. Spring is
farther advanced in England and 1t
is nice and warm here now. Quite
a change from that terrible storm
in New York when we left.

RURAL TEACHERS GET MORE
Increase In Salary General In Dick,
lnson County for Next Year.


The salaries OF teachers In the
rural schools probably will rang,
from $50 to $125 In Dickinson coun-
~ next year. according To Miss Mary
II. WoOlverton. county superintend
emit Miss WOolvertOn said that the
lowest salary which had been re-
ported by any school board In the
county so far was $50 and the high
est $l25. though the average wage
OF rural teachers VIII be from 500
to S1l5 month The Increase over
this year IS considerable, The mini
mum wage In the county this year
for teachers Of one room schools was
$50 and 500 was the highest salary
paid In the county.
A few Of the teachers have been
re- elected In the districts In which
they taught this year but there is a
general inclination on the part of
the school boards to delay selecting
teachers for next term and teachers
likewise are slow in applying for
positions.
II was pointed out by the county
superintendent that. while much
stress is being laid at present on the
necessity of increased compensation
for teachers. there are other things
equally important to the advance
ment OF education in the state and
county. include better equipment for
schools and higher qualifications for
teachers and are being carefully con
by the boards before they
take action. she indicated.
