Prohteer Swatting Idea
Is Spreading; New
Store Opens
BY MILTON BRONNER,
European Manager. N. E. 1

LONDON, May 1.-Shoes made of
honest-to-goodness leather from sole
to tips for 1891.
No. fellow Americans, no joke, It's
sober, serious fact.
1t happened this way: Recently
Mallaby-Deeley, a very rich member
OF Parliament, opened a clothing
store, where he sold made-to- measure
suits for from $40 up to about $50.
Result was the police had to be called
to keep the anxious customers from
breaking down the doors.
That made S. and M. Bolsom do
some thinking, If Mallaby-Deeley
could swat the profteers by dealing
directly, why couldn't they do the
same thing by taking the output of
a shoe factories which had made
shoes for the government during the
war and were now looking for new
business openings?
A store was rented and the an
nouncement was made that shoes
would be sold to men and boys at
| pound sterling (as this is written
$3.9D the pair. Even when the
English round climbs back to normal,
this will only be $4.86 pair. The
shoes come with light, medium and
heavy soles, black and tan.

CITIZENS OF AMERICUS,
DOES THIS CONCERN YOU?

positions in the schools of other
cities or to leave the profession and
engage in other occupations?
The teachers of Americas wish it
distinctly understood that they do
not want sympathy. They are all
able to take care of themselves
but not by teaching in Americas at
present salaries. Every one of
them can get higher pay by teach
ing elsewhere. Some nave already
had better opportunities. Evecy
one of our teachers can obtain a
estlll better position by leaving the
profession and entering other lines
OF work. Some have alre ldy been
offered two and three times their
present income. Some have al
ready decided to accept such offers.
They have sacrificed themselves to
the cause of education already
longer than they can afford.
A movement has been started
by public spirited citizens, which,
II successful, will make possible,
it is said, an increase of ABOUT 10
per cent in teachers salaries. So
far, so good. 1t is a move in the
right direction, and may keep in
Americus some teachers whose in
terests are tied up here. But is it
reasonable to suppose that teach
er now existing on $675 year will
return for $3.50, when she can
easily earn $1,000 by going else
where, or double her income by en-
tering other work? Is it reason
able to suppose that any married
teacher now striving to support his
family on 81, 500 year will return.
for $1,650, when by merely writ
ing an acceptance of a business
offer he can assure himself of $4,-
900 or $4,000? A teacher will
teach for less money than he will
do anything else, but in most in-
stances 10 per cent increase will
scarcely relieve, and not remedy,
the situation.
The people of Americas face two
important school questions. First,
will they pay their teachers liv-
ing wage, not to show their sym
pathy, but to keep the schools
open? Second, is a living-wage
service good enough for them and
their children? Are they satisfied
to put up with inexperienced teach
ers for the future, with poorly edu-
Gated teachers, or even with salts
factory teachers who cannot be in
duced to remain? Or will they de-
mand the best for their children, in
education as in matters of less con-
sequence? During the past year
few citizens have criticized the
teachers. If they have criticized
justly, let them consider carefully
whether they are paying for high
er quality than they are getting,
and let them ask themselves what
course they must adopt to obtain
teachers better suited to their
wishes. By some,. on the other
hand, the teachers have been high
ly complimented. All who think
well of present conditions should

water faucet.
State health departments have
for many years urged the adoption
on the farm of sanitary measures
such as indoor toilets and sewerage
disposal systems and the same au-
thorities are thoroughly convinced of
the value of the health of the farm
family of convenient, ready-at-the-
minute bathing facilities"
Americus times-recorder., 1920-05-02

The water service thus obtained is in
result the same as that enjoyed in the
city. There are very efficient heat
ers, too, which will heat plenty of
water for bath in half hour or
less, or which will keep the water hot
all the time if desired. All this
means that any member of the farm
family can now have hot bath in
real tub at the mere turn of the hot

"The advertisement contains
matter for several lengthy editori-
ais which we might write. If the

tice this comes, will mark the words

and future no further comment
will be necessary.
What is the state of affairs right
here in Americus? Are the educa-
tional interests of the people being
properly safeguarded? Will pres
ent salaries attract to our city the
best talent in the profession? Will
present salaries attract even teach
ers of moderate ability? Or must
our community put up with some
of the 10000 inexperienced teach
ers for the future? Are we paying
even living wage, or will even the
teachers whose homes are in Amer
icus be forced eventually to seek

ELECTRICITY FOR
new HIGHSCHOOL
Light And Water Sys-
TENS To Be Installed
At Leslie

The new consolidated Union High
school building, near Leslie, will be
equipped with Delco lighting and wa
ter systems, II. K Ertzberger, local
representative of the Delco-Light
Company, announced Saturday.
l have just closed contract with
the board of education, and we will
give them the most complete lighting
and water system that money can
buy, Mr.. Ertzberger said. "The
hight and water systems are built for
economy of fuel and yet are as sure
as a. Ford car-Delco always goes;
1T is the ideal equipment for farm
home as well as for schools.
In no way is electricity serving
the farm family better than in max
ing possible a modern up-to-date bath
room.
When water had to- be pumped
and carried by hand, when it had to
be heated on the kitchen stove, and
when tubs had to be gotten out es-
pecially, then getting ready for and
taking a bath meant lot Of distur-
bance and muss. But electricity has
done away with all this. The small
electric light and power plants now
in use on so many farms all over the
country furnish plenty of power for
the operation of electric pumping
systems. These systems have been
developed to such a great extent in
the last few years, that they are now
almost entirely automatic. Once in
stalled, the pump driven by an cleo
trio motor and controlled by a pres
sure switch, keeps water under pres
sure at faucets all over the house.
realize that those conditions can
not continue except through siren
uous efforts on their part. The
Teachers Council does not threat
en-. It merely presents facts.
