SCHOOLS CLOSE FOR LACK OF
TEACHERS

According to the reports Of the
United States Bureau Of Education,
the country is faced with serious
shoragt Of school teachers, chiefly
through failure to provide adequate
salaries. Based on returns from
State school officials, the reports
show that ON February 13 last 49,
279 schools closed because of lack
Of teachers and 4l,90O were being
taught BY teachers characterized as
"below standard, but taken on tenn
porarily in an emergency" Greater
shortages Of teachers are shown in
the Southern than in the Northern
Stutes."
Here is another alarming phrase
OF the situation:
In 100 state, county, city and pri-
yate normal schools, representing so
per cent of the total normal schools
in the country, there were 1883
fewer students enrolled Nov / 1919
than during the pre-war period. A
similar falling Of is shown in teach

THE M0M-FARMER TYPE OF
SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE

The new Secretary of Agriculture
+. T. Meredith, starts in just like
any other Wilsonian cabinet men,
Der. He has had press agent
write a story for the papers about
him in which he is heralded as "a
new type Of man" in the office he
now occupies. And. Of course, he
takes a crack at Congress and at his
predecessors in office. For in
stance, his press agent says:
"The Department Of Agriculture
has gone in for tvo types Of Secre-
tnry. The type which has predom.
mated through most Of its existence
has grown copious crops Of whiskers
has harked back to the good old
days of whiting sticks at the cor
ner grocery, has harbored a pair Of
brogans in its closet, reminiscent
Of earlier times sThe Second
type has been from the college class
rooms, go Here comes n new type.
Secretary Meredith has none of the
earmarks of the farmer"
The first Secretary of Agriculture
was Jerry Rusk, one of the sturdy
pioneers of the Northwest, a real
farmer. but man of affairs as well
who has been chosen governor of his
state by the people, instead of be-
ing defeated for office as was NJ!
Meredith. The second was j. Ster-
ling Morton, former governor Of
iown, and originator of Arbor Day,
n genuine farmer and also a man Of
successful business experience. The
third was another former governor
and congressman from Iowa, "Tama
Jim" Wilson. He was probably the
most practical and useful incumbent
the office ever had. and under his
administration the Department Of
Agriculture assumed its present
large place in the national economy.
II remained for President Wilson to
choose two non farmers for Secre-
tnry of Agriculture, just as he has
chosen n non business man for Seq
retary of Commerce. This story
put out in Mr. Meredith's behalf a
bout his predecessors being smelly
persons from the cross roads dry
goods boxes makes very good news
paper story, but is is sadly lacking
in the essential element Of truth.
However, the statement with which
this piece Of propaganda concludes
will remain undisputed. The press
agent says Secretry Meredith is n
trimmed advertising man," He can
do his own Creeling.

CANDY TAKES PLACE OF

Prohibition is effecting another
radical change in the hotel menus,
II has always been recognized fact
that whenever n man decided 10 ab-
stain from intoxicating drinks his
craving for sweets will develope
at once. and this general grow
ing demand has resulted in New
York hotels putting candy on their
menus. says New York Times.
Cnndy has become such nm import
ant consideration that all the lar
ger hotels have their own candy
shops ns part of their establishments s
and the delicacy is no longer crowd
ed in on the newsstands.
People eat candy three or four tim
~ day. Even fruit has failed TO
sn,isfy. Guests order candy sent
10 their rooms now in the same way
they formerly ordered II bottle Of
wine or fruit.
The candy sales have more thnn
qundripled in the last few months,
said Copeland Townsend Of the Ma
ics,ic Hotel. Nearly everybody
asks for candy ns part Of their lun-
chcon and dinner orders and many
have candy served for breakfast
And yet candy under our taxation
laws candy is classcd as a luxury
and assessed with o per cent ex-
else tax over aud above all other
