MODERN TEXT BOOKS
NEEDED FOR SCHOOLS
SAYS c. 0. WILLIAMS

Methods of teaching change, and
books should be changed TO accord
with them. The use of modern text
books in our schools is as much
necessity as in any other line of en-
deavor." These words summarize the
stand of C. o. Williams, county super
intendent of schools, on the matter of
changing school books in accordance
with recommendations of the state
board of text book commissioners.
There is no comparison between
the new school books and the old"
said Mr. Williams. Saturday. when
the board took up the matter of select
ing new text books it had in mind not
the price but the selection of the very
best possible material for our schools.
I'VE are spending more money for
schools today and teachers are being
better paid. Why should we use out
of-date text books, designed for an out
fo-date method of teaching, when we
are paying out this money for modern
equipment in other particulars?"
Spend More This Year
Mr. Williams statement was made
in the course of a discussion regard
ing the increased cost of text books
this year Figures which have been
| compiled show that the people Of In
diana will spend S1SS,000 more for
text books this year than last. The
state board has recommended the use
of nine new elementary textbooks
which will replace seven that have
! been in use for several years past.
| The total cost of the nine new books
| is $3.50. The cost of the old books
was S3.40 but the companies would
/ not have been able to supply them for
| this sum this year. They submitted
| bids, however, on the old form of text
book, the bids totaling SOL. Thus
according to Mr.. Williams statement
| the Indiana school children receive
the benefit of the last word" in text
books at what is really only a S15G
| increase over what would have bSer
paid if the change had not been made
Cites instance.
An instance of the difference be
tween the new and old books was cited
! by superintendent Williams in regard
to the change in Biographies. The
old method of teaching was known as
the topical method. 1t divided state:
| into groups according to arbitrary
/ geographical features of the country
For instance, the southern states were
so called because Of a historical divis
ion.
The new method is called the reg
ional system. That is, a number o
states having the same climatic fea
lures, producing the same products
are grouped together and studied il
! this manner. Greater efficiency ant
increased speed in teaching are ad
vantages of the method
Similar instances were cited il
physiology and grammar text books
I'm teaching physiology" said Nj
Williams, "the whole aim today is Il
} take the affirmative side of the ques
, ton. The pupil is told to do this ant
= that as a matter of health. A fey
years ago, physiology emphasized tn
, danger of disease. Today, it stresse
the prevention of disease"
Pupils are taught to care for thei
bodies not through fear but as a maj
{ ter of health. 1t is a moral force t.
, day rather than a matter of discipline

DECREASE IN FOREIGN
WHEAT DEMAND CAUSE
OF SHARP SETBACKS
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-Sharp setbacks
in the price of wheat have taken place
this week, chiefly as result OF ~.
cumulating stocks, together with abb
sence of any large demand from cou
tries across the Atlantic. Compare
with a week ago, wheat quotatik
this morning were 5s4 to &c lower:
corn down 13s to 1%c, Oats off 124
to rs, and provisions varying from
S107, decline to $3.50 advance.
With five million bushels increase
in the weekly total of the United
States visible supply and with an
even greater increase shown for Can
ada, wheat bulls were under a decided
handicap. Lower price reports in Can
ada market counted as a further de-
pressing influence, particularly unem-
ployment.
Note Freight Cut.
Special notice, too, was made of a
cut in ocean freight rates forcing
consigned wheat to pc paid in Liver
pool II cents a bushel below replace
ment cost. On the other hand. specu-
| lative buying based on opinion that a
| rally had become overdue, was appar-
emily discounted by signs that spring
| wheat farmers were marketing sur
plus grain with more speed than had
/ been looked for
| Corn and oats fell with wheat, Sep
! TENDER corn touching the lowest price
| in nearly two decades.
| Pork advanced because stocks Of
| that commodity were near exhausted.

| full and weak

NEiGHB0RLY STATES
SUSTAIN HOG LOSSES

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct Hog chol-
era, which is spreading throughout
herds in Indiana, causing considerable
loss to farmers, is also prevalent in
surrounding states, particularly Ohio
and Illinois. according to DR.. Z. G.
Houk, chief of the hog cholera divI-
sion of the bureau of animal industry.
Dr.. Houk was here today confer
ring with DR. r. c. Julian, state vet
erinarian, regarding measures to COM
bat the disease. Quarantine measures
may be necessary in some localities,
Dr.. Julian says.
As the first step toward checking
the disease, however, he is advocating
immediate vaccination. Immunization
from cholera is certain, he says, if the
animals are yaccinated before the
disease infects a herd.

adding that he could not at present
say whether Japan would propose dis

NO AGREEMENT BY STATESMEN
 ON INDEMNITY
(By United Pressi

Paris, Jan. 28.-Premier Lloyd George of Great Britain, entrusted by the supreme allied council to ne- gotiate German separations with Pre- mier Briand of France, declared that unless an agreement is reached today, his conferences with the French pre- mier at the Quai d'Orsay will be broken off.
 The English premier appeared un- moved by the plea of Premier Briand that refusal of the French demand fo1 the immediate fixation of German in- demnities would cause the collapse of the French cabinet.
 Meanwhile, the supreme allied coun- cil remains in session to receive the report of the premiers. u is certain their agreement, if ever submitted will be ratified by the council.
 Premier Briand, in office less than two weeks, is facing the same situa- tion as caused the fall of the Leygues cabinet. The French chamber of dep- uties has been outspoken in it's demand for immediate adjustment of post war problems, and Leygues' refusal to take the body completely into his con- fidence resulted in a vote of lack of confidence, compelling the resignation of the entire cabinet.

EFFORT FAILS
 10 POSTPONE
 PEN MEASURE

Special to the Log Cabin Democrat
 Little Rock, Jan. 2S.-W When Senator Townsend called the Gates house bill to abolish the Arkansas penitentiary commission today, Senator Caldwell of Jefferson county immediately of fered a motion to defer further action on the measure until next Tuesday morning. Senator Caldwell urged the adoption of his motion in order that i absentee senators might be present and that additional time for the study of the bill by the senators be allowed. In addition to Senator Caldwell, Sen ators Bone, Wood, Johnson and Wilson of Calhoun spoke in favor of postpon- ing action.
 Senators Townsend, Wallace, Roddy, Jackson, Mcfarland and Barnes op. posed the motion and favored imme- diate action on the bill, declaring that all the senators were already fully advised as to the purposes of the measure and that there was no more probability of having a full attend ance Tuesday than was present today.
 Upon roll call the Caldwell motion was defeated, 15 ayes to F noes. De bate was opened this afternoon upon the merits of the bill and it will probably come to vote before night The vote against postponement was regarded as an administration victory and an indication that the measure will pass the senate.
 After lengthy speeches had been made by Senators Wood and Bone against the passage of the bill and by Senator Bogle favoring it, Sena. tor Collins moved that it be placed back upon it's second reading for ref erence to the judiciary committee Senator Vaughan of Pulaski voted with those opposed to the bill on this question, but the Collins motion was lost on a tie vote, 16 to Is.
 The debate was then resumed and was continued until long past the noon hour, when the opponents of the measure moved to recess until ? o'clock On roll call this motion was carried, p to 10.

IRISH DEMAND
 FULL FREEDOM
 FROM BRITAIN
tBy United Prcss)

Dublin, Jan. Complete separa- tion from the British empire and an agreement which will prevent discord in the future are the basic conditions of any peace by the Sim Fein with Great Britain.
 Eamon DeNalera, president of the "Irish Republic today issued a statement in which he declared that the first step toward peace would be for Britain to acknowledge the right of Ireland to independence. This done. the Sim Fein will insist that the em- pire and Ireland negotiate q suitable agreement by which relations would be maintained after Ireland had es- tablished a republican form of gov ernment.
 Complete separation from the en- pire is the final demand of the Sim Fein. DeValera's statement was part ly in answer to the plan by Premier Lloyd George, looking to the establish ment of three Irish parliaments under nominal British rule.

OPPOSE POLITICAL
 RULE IN CABINET
tBy nited Press)

Palm Beach, Fla, Jan. 28.-Ap. pointment of Will H. Hays, chairman of the Republican national commit tee, as postmaster general appeared more remote today when it became known that strong pressure is being brought to bear upon President-elect Harding to prevent the appointment of too many politicians to cabinet posts. Other causes may have aided in displacing Mr. Hays as the most likely appointee as postmaster gen. eral. MT. Hayes was in active charge of the Harding campaign.
 Republican leaders today forecast the appointment of Harry S. Daugh. erty of Ohio to the place. Mir. Daugh- erty IS an attorney and had charge of the Harding campaign prior to the Chicago convention.

FAVORS FLAT TAX
 ON ALL BUSINESS
iBy United Press)

Washington. Jan. 2S.-A flat tax on the net income of all business to re- place the excess profits tax was pro- posed in the senate today by Senator Reed Shoot, Republican, of Utah, a member of the senate finance commit tee. Senator Shoot declared that such scheme of taxation would be the fairest way in which the government could secure it's needed revenue.
 As proposed the tax would be levied regardless of the capitalization of the industries taxed.
