TEACHERS SALARIES

EST SALARIES OF ANY TOWN

NEW YORK-(By A. P.)-Cham-
bers Of Commerce in $50 cities of the
United States with population of
5000 or more will receive today from
their National Committee for Co
operation with the Public Schools the
results of a nation wide survey re-
lating to salaries, training and ex-
perience of teachers in which it is
declared that in point of salary the
average school teacher is worse off
than before the war" The report,
the first of four "interpretative in
quiries," will enable these cities, it is
said, to learn for the first time the
truth about their own schools and to
compare them with the schools of
other cities throughout the country
This survey, which was undertaken
by the American City Bureau after

schools with Chamber Of Commerce
Secretaries at Cleveland, Ohio, last

February "a, has been in progress
more than six months. The questions
to which answers were sought and
obtained in the $50 cities were. "How
much training do your teachers
have? ?" and How well do you pay
your school employees"
On-half of the men elementary
teachers in all cities reporting, it was
shown, have had less than the medi-
UNI of $40 years of experience. One
fourth have had less than 3.71 years
experience. Of 68,291 teachers,
8, 493 have had only one years eX-
perience and of this number 758 are
men and women high school teachers
and 2,735 are men and women ele-
mentary grade teachers. More than
10000 women and 800 men in the
cities surveyed, however, have been
teaching 20 years and over.
Emergency teachers lacking prop
er training for their work are said to
compose IAN alarmingly large pro-
portion" of those now in the class
rooms. 1t is a commonly accepted
standard among city Boards of Edu-
cation, the report points out, that
the teachers in the elementary
schools of our American cities who
have even less preparation than grad
uation from four-year high school
course"
The method of calculation used in
the report is based on medium, or
mid-point, in the scale of salaries
which divides it exactly in half, one
half the cases falling below the me-
dunn and the other half above it.
The following cities, respective
ly, paid the highest and lowest me-
dian salaries during the school year

DR.. George D. Strayer, Chairman

ing of the situation said: "What we.
need throughout the nation is bet
ter understanding of the school stu
alton based upon careful assembling
of the facts. These inquiries are in
tended to serve just this purpose. The
American people believe in the public
school system. That they have not
always supported it as generously as
they should is not due to any lack of
faith, but rather, because of lack of
information. If superintendent of
schools make available the facts with
regard to the present situation, and if
chamber of commerce undertakes the
obligation to carry these facts TO the
public, we shall have an informed
public. The American people, when
they come to full realization of the
present emergency, can certainly be
counted upon to provide the support
necessary for the maintenance and
development of our public school
system" -

TELL OF BABYL0NIAN LIFE
interesting Revelations in Clay Tablets
That Were written" On Some
Forty Centuries Ago.

The University OF South Dakota al

of 81 genuine Babylonian tablets, dis
covered by Arabs in the ruins of bur
led cities and collected at Bagdud.
They have been deciphered by DIR.
Edgar ]. Banks Of Alpine, n. j., an
authority on these clay and brick rec
ords of 1900 years ago. and their
authenticity proved Fully half of the
tablets In this collection are perfect
and all of them are legible. They are
only few inches In size and were
written on when they were soft clay,
later being dried, or baked. Most OF
them are of about the date 1850 B, c.,
few going as far back as $500 b. c.,
and others dating from the time of
the fall of Babylon before the Per-
slams, In 538 B. c. The most valuable
tablet of the collection Is letter
Holes were made through ii so that
II might be attached to cord and

value and interest are a number of
neo- Babylonian tablets Of sundrled
clay containing business contracts of
all sorts and giving pictures at the
life of the people after the Persian
conquest. OF special interest is a
small tablet OF exercises in writing,
done by some boy in the temple school
over 40 centuries ago.

according to present plans The Ira
Allen statue has been modelled in
such way that the figure seems to be

Mr.. Fry, the sculptor, will be in Bur

FISH HAS TWO UGLY WEAPONS
Giant Ray Said to Use Mouth Like a

Dangerous Tail.

A so.called devilfish that Is com
mon on American coasts from 80 de-
grees north latitude to about the same
degrees south of the line, is the giant
ray. This fish looks very like skate,
but grows to an enormous size. 1t lies
on the sea bottom, covering square
yards Of coral sand, and II attacked

dangerous 1t Is said to use It's mouth
like a shark, but its most unpleasant
weapon Is the toothed spear in Its tall
Fishermen say 1t is able to drive this
Jagged lance through a mans thigh
Such a wound is extremely dangerous
and almost Invariably proves fatal. In
the southern part of the Gulf Of Mex
leo specimens of the giant ray have
been killed up to IS feet across. The
ray has two horns, one on each side
of its eyes, the latter being green,
hideous and cruel beyond expression.
A curious habit of this fish is to break
water like a whale, falling with a
thunderous splash that Is heard for a
long distance.

RECEIVERS DIG UP
MORE PONZI ASSETS
Alleged Financial Wizard Disposed of
$4,000 Aft1r Becoming
nsolvent.

Boston, Aug. 27.-The receivers in
bankruptcy OF Charles Ponzi, who sky
rocketed into fame as an alleged
maker OF millions in international
postal reply coupons, took legal steps
today to add to his assets the sum
OF $4,000, which he Is alleged TO have
paid Joseph Daniels in settlement of
suit by Daniels to establish a part.
nership interest in Ponzis securities
exchange company Daniels in his
suit alleged that he leaned Pohzi the
few hundred dollars which started
the get.richquick operator in bust
ness.
The receivers action is in the form
OF bill in equity to have Daniels
ordered by the court to turn over to
the receivers the money he had from
Ponzi They allege that at the time
the settlement was made Ponzi was
insolvent, and that the settlement
was fraudulent and intended to de.
fraud other creditors. The receivers
claim that Daniels gave no valid cen
sideration for the transfer, and that
the purpose of Ponzi in making the
settlement were known to and con-
niyed at by Daniels, who acted and
still acts as mere agent OF Ponzi in
receiving and retaining the money
paid him.
1t is further alleged that Daniels
is the owner of large block Of
shares in the Daniels and Wilson
Furniture company and il he fails to
return to the receivers the money
paid him by Ponzi they ask that the
court order the sale of his stock and
apply the proceeds in settlement Of
their claim against him.
Judge Sisk issued temporary in
junction against Daniels, and an or
der of notice was made returnable
on September 2.
The receivers today formally seized
f, the expensive home Of Ponzi in Lex.
ington, and the several automobiles
which he bought in his days of afflu-
ence. The wife and mother Of the in
prisoned promoter were allowed to
continue their residence there, and it
is understood they will not be dis
turbed until the estate is settled.

HOME GROWN HELP
ON VERMONT FARMS
Families Do More Work on the Land
Than In Any Other State in
Enujand.

Vermont dairy farmers have more
help from members of their families
than farmers In any other northern
New England state, according to the
data recently secured by the depart
ment of statistics of the New Eng
land Milk Producers association. The
figures show that the wives, daughters
sons and ether members of the fam
lilies, working without pay, do "a per
cent Of all the dairy work on the
average farm. With this efficient help
the Vermont farmers get along with
only q per cent of hired help
These figures are in striking con
trast to Massachusetts where the
dairy farmers have only seven per
cent Of help from members of their
families and are obliged to hire more
help and put in much more time them
selves. New Hampshire families do
II per cent of the work and Maine
16 per cent. But the Maine farmer
does much more of his own dairy
work and has only sever per cent OF
hired help
4 One reason why Vermont families
make such a good showing is the
large percentage of work done by boys
under IS years old. The records show
that more than 13 per cent of all the
dairy work is done by these boys,
while in Massachusetts they do only
four per cent, in Maine five per cent
and in New Hampshire eight per cent.
Vermont daughters, on the other
hand, are next to lowest in the list.
with less than enc per cent of work
to their credit. Connecticut girls do
more than seven times as much work
on the dairy farms according to these
statistics Vermont women do more
dairy work than the women of any
other state but Connecticut and they
do eight times as much as Massa-
chusetts.
These figures were secured by the
New England Milk Producers asso-
ciatiCn in its effort to determine the
actual cost of producing milk on the
average New England farm. The per-
centage of home labor runs high. It
is not paid for directly but it must be
taken into account in determining
costs. The relatively large percent
I age of work which is done without
cost by members of the average Yer
mont dairyman's family may be enc
reason for the common belief that
milk can be produced in Vermont
much cheaper than in other states of
New England
