AT RELIC OF Wife
Old New York Toy Man Gould
Not Resist Loneliness
Any Longer.

NEW YORK. Nov. 2.-The Toy
Man, whom children loved. is dead.
A silken scarf. a trifle faded and
wrinklSd. remains to tell his story
Its surface has been stained by tears.
but its soft texture retains FAINT
perfume.
The Toy Man was Fritz Walther.
He was seventy. rosy. vigorous gem
tie. Out of a block OF wood, with
sharp knife, he could extract wonder
full toys.
Donkeys which seemed about TO
bray. lifelike lions, dimpled dolls
manly soldiers and sailors, toy ships
and caravans came from his knife ana
his heart, and now arc scattered
among the small persons who loved
him. And last night many OF those
children cried themselves TO sleep
for the old Toy Man was dead.
FORTY-TwO YEARS OF LOVE.
The scarf he left behind to tell his
story belonged to his wife. WIN
them II was never a question of mar
rage be ng a success. Through forty-
two years of happiness their love
only became deeper.
Five years ago she died. The Toy
Man attended to the funeral, and then
returned to the lonesome home that
mad Deen oio
In which she had sat remained 10
mock yet to comfort him. On II he
placed the old shawl scarf she had
worn. What he said to the SCARF al
night and what message he seemed
to draw from 1t will never be known
The toys were made in greater pro-
fus on after that. His orders were
many: his customers were plentiful
and pleading. and so the quick
fingers were kect busy. but In his
mind was always the message OF that
silken scarf.
CHEERFUL BEFORE THE END
often 1t got so lonely that he
visited a sympathetic friend. Mrs
Amelia Helmer. who lives on the
floor above. He called there Satur-
day night. She said yesterday that
she played the piano for him and
when he left he was more cheerful
than in months.
Yesterday morning. as usual she
took a pot OF coffee to his rooms.
She knocked. There was no answer
She enters.
Hanging from a transom was the
old Toy Man. He was dead. And on
his wife's arm chair was the little
faded scarf.

OWNERS GET RAILROADS

Railroads of the United States on
March l were returned to their owners,
after having been operated for twenty
six months under government direc-
ton. Two hundred forty thousand
miles of main lines, which had been
under government operation since Dec.
IS, 1917, are now in the hands of
their owners, after the federal admin
istration incurred a deficit of $7l5,
100000, in the little more than two
years in which the government oper-
ated the transportation systems of the
country.
Public ownership advocates no doubt
have had their ideas of government
operation Of national transportation
shattered by the appalling deficit
which has resulted from the expert
ment.
While government operation of the
railroads probably was necessity, in
prosecution of the war, the govern
ment' record does not warrant con
tinuation of the policy.
With competition between great
railroad systems restored, with quail
fed men at the heads of the railways,
and with a determination on the part
Of the executives to give real service
to the public, the railroad situation
no doubt will in time greatly improve.
Conditions in which the railroads
low are found, should firmly demon

1ointees are not nearly so successful
Is trained railroad men in handling
abroad business. Perhaps, then, in
he future the public viii not be so
much inclined as in the past to abuse
he railroads for what is declared to
'e shortcomings in the service.

AUTHORIZATION PLANKs

Amusing evidence of antics pecu-
liar to politicians is revealed in what
appears to be desire of POLITICAL par
ties, in shaping theig platforms for
the forthcoming election, to incorpor-
ate therein planks voicing opposition
to prohibition of manufacture and sale
of Intoxicating liquor.
1t has heretofore been the custom of
party organizations, in selecting the
planks to be used in their platforms,
to not fail to employ a prohibition
plank in erecting the stage from which
they would appeal to the public for
votes prohibition plank was deem
ed essential to party success, for many
were the votes which they gained by
his crafty parctice.
Candidates for public office even

went so far as to pledge themselves
for prohibition, whether or not they
actually believed prohibition to be
desirable, and they were elected to
office on the stand " they took in
support of the drys. Men even were
elected to public office on "dryN plat
forms, only to secretly celebrate their
election with group of close friends
by imbibing freely of bootleg whiskey.
A reign of prohibition obtains, at
least for the time being, chiefly
through fear in the past, on the part
of men elected to public office, of loss
of votes from the dries if they failed
to support prohibition measures, chief
ly in state legislatures. Now, that
prohibition is virtually an accomplished
fact, politicians are turning to the OPP
posite side for support, it appears.
Promises of partiality toward so-called
" wet" measures are about to be made
in hope of corraling votes thereby.
The question, then, naturally arises,
are politicians ever really sincere in
the platforms to which they promise
to adhere?

STATE HIGH SCHOOLS
FACE BIG SHORTAGE
IN TEACHING FORCE

With the opening of the public
schools of the state still some five or
six weeks in the future, teacher short
age already is assuming proportions
which threaten to exceed the shortage
of last year.
There are 1000 high school posi-
tions in the state yet to be filled with
only 200 teachers in the state qualified
to fill the positions yet unsigned, &C
cording to Prof. Francis NJ. Stalker,
chairman of the appointment commit
tee Of the Indiana state normal school
at Terre Haute.
He says the shortage is shortage
only when spoken Of in qualified terms.
He points to the ruling Of the state
board of education, some time ago,
which raised the requirements for
teachers in the state, especially the
requirements of those expecting to
teach IN the high schools.
The ruling referred to by Mr.. Stalk
er places the minimum requirement
| for a teacher in the high school at two
years above the high school. Some
| cities and towns, Terre Haute for in.
| stance, have raised this and made the
! minimum requirement, graduation
| from normal training school above the
| four-year high school, placing the two
year-above-the-high- requirement
| for teachers in the elementary school,
Many Disqualified.
Prof. Stalker says that there are
| just as many teachers available for
the high school this year as there were
| last year and that they are just as
| well qualified this year as that, but
that the shortage mentioned is due tC
the raising of the minimum require
| ments, thereby cutting out a great
many teachers who taught last year
| but who under the new ruling are not
qualified for service this year. When
questioned in regard to reasons why
! students were not qualifying by doing
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram., 1920-08-02

more work in the normal schools, Mr.
Stalker said:
The answer is the same In this case
as 1t has been for years and years
The requirements for teachers have
been raised time after time, but never
has the salary kept pace with the in
creased requirements.
In most cases. Terre Haute includ.
ed, the salary with this years increase
Is just at the point that 1t should have
been five years ago. The increased
demands Of the industrial and bust
ness world, with the accompanying in
crease in pay, is taking a great many
or our best high school graduates who
would make splendid teachers and who
would prepare for teaching were re-
turns large enough to pay them for it.
Next year the shortage is going to
be greater than ever before and those
teachers who do stay with the profes-
sion are going to ask for substan-
tial increase or they, too, will go into
other lines"
Conditions Are General.
Conditions In the State Normal
school are no exception to conditions
In the state generally. In a poll TAX
en- this week, it was found that out OF
more than 1900 students enrolled, less
than so are qualified to teach in the
