1890. indicate that there will be n
shortage OF over $4,000 high school
teachers when the schools open in Sep
tember. 1920. The average shortage of
high school teachers In ali States ia
26.3 per cent. In Oklahoma Il ia 81
per cent-the greatest shortage shown
In any State in the Union. Missouri
comes next with shortage Of ~ per
cent.
The important thing about this con-
ference at Durant is that II is a citiz-
ems meeting. Whatever success may
attend Will come in a large measure
from the fact that II Ia a gathering not
of educators, but of citizens repre-
senting every phase of Oklahoma life
farmers. farm women, business and
professional men. club women, cham
bers OF commerce, editors, ministers.
laborers. teachers, school officers
county and city superint endents of
schools. members of the legislature.
State officers. members Of parent :
teacher associations. in fine. all Glass;
es Of people who have the interest of
the children at heart.
Education is indeed at this time in
the hands of the citizens The great
American public is going to have to
decide. and decide quickly whether or
not 1t really wants adequate universal
education. There is plenty Of lip serv-
ice to education in the United States
The time has now come when II is
necessary to translate that lip serv-
ice into something more tangible, ap-
preparations for the preparation and
pay of teachers. bond issues for build
ings and equipment. and other things
that touch the pocketbook nerve.
The citizens of Oklahoma have the
problem of education as 1t concerns
them in their own hands. Their repre-
sentatives at Durant should not only
find the solution but help the hun
dreds of thousands back home see It
1t Is the aim of those in charge OF
these meetings to make them real con-
ferences in which many citizens OF
Oklahoma will have an opportunity tC
take part in the discussion of the prob
lens in education now confronting the
people of this State. This makes a de.
tailed program unnecessary. a general
program for the guidance of those in
attendance at the conference will bo

session. The night sessions will h,

that they are willing to gamble.

his address as State and Water streets
We're arraigned in the City court this
morning charged with having misap-
propriated funds which they collect
ed on three tons of coal yesterday af-

assumed the entire blame for the af-
fair saying that he had collected $46
for the coal delivered and had only
turned in $32 telling his employer
that the woman had not paid him.
Later he said that the woman had
paid the total amount of the bill
which was $46 and that he had tenn
porarily borrowed the difference for
his own use with the intention of
paying it back. Judge Bartlett fined
Willis $25 and costs and nol1ed the

time since his nomination as head of
the Democratic National ticket, Gov
ernor Cox of Ohio is in New York to-
day filling score of campaign en-
gagements. The Governors arrival

than ordinary interest in the event.
Following the closed car in which
Governor Cox was driven from the
Jersey City school house where he
made his last speech, were more than
a hundred touring cars from which
blazed red fire and other brilliant py-
rotechnics-
At advantageous points along his
route in New Jersey elaborate dis
plays of fireworks were set off while
the fag-draped machines filed past.
Arrived at the Waldorf Astoria ho-
tel the candidate met Mrs. Cox, who
had come from her Dayton home dur
ing the day to be with the Governor
here and accompany him on the last
week of the campaign tour.

THRONGS
AT HIGH
SCHOOL
Miss Ida Tarbell Ar
rives in the City at
2::3O and is Escorted
to the Auditorium
Lieut.. Devine Pleads
For the League Of
Nations.

Miss Ida Tarbell arrived in Bridge
port this afternoon at 2:30 and was
escorted by reception committee to
the High School Auditorium, where
capacity audience awaited her.
Lieut.. Joseph J. Devine, Democratic
candidate for probate judge, who pre-
ceded Miss Tarbel1, after congratulate
ing the women present on their entry
into the full rights of citizenship, told
OF his pleasure at being able to greet
them, because he felt in addressing
them he was speaking to an audience
unfettered by any previous political
ANIMATION. Mr.. Devine said in part:
II wish to make an appeal for a
great principle, the League of Ma
tlons. If 1 had not been a Democrat
at the time I landed in France, what
later in the hospitals would have made
me a Democrat in this Presidential
election for the reason that it means
prevention of war. You will pardon
France. When I arrived there in
January, 1918, France was bIed white,
the manhood of the nation at the
front, the business of France, indus
lrlal and agricultural, carried on by
women and children. and you could
go Tor miles through the country and
see no one except a crippled soldier
or an old man.
AT this time in France people
were taking of the Americans as the
saviors of France and with tears in
lhelr eyes they said that this was to
be the last war, and that no more
would FAMILY ties be broken, no more
would life be sacrificed and in the
future peace and happiness would
reign In thew orld. And then I fell

in the rear. Each night as Law

of the wounded, I wouurrvu IT were

BOMB THREATS
HERE ARE NOT
TAKEN SERIOUSLY

The police today continue to guard
all the coal yards in the city as a pre-
caution against the alleged threats of
the man who signed himself "a work
ingman'' and sent postal cards to all
the coal dealers in the city threaten
ing to blow up their business places
unless they reduced the price of coal.
The police are not inclined to take
the threats seriously as this is not the
first instance when threatening letters
have been received without the con-
sequences following.
AS early as Tuesday of this week
some of the coal dealers are said to
have received the threatening cards
but at the time did not take muall
stock III them.
