DIRECTORS MUST

to view and compare salaries paid to
country bank cashiers. The amounts
vary greatly. 1t seems to rest upon
the peculiar temperament OF the board

The average country bank director
gives the bank only passing attention,
SO corrective measures will come as
soon as proper impressions have been
made in an educational way. The
great service rendered and the excep-
tional facilities provided by banks and
trust companies at a low cost to the
public, would be illuminating informa-

RECOMMEND ISSUING OF
DESCRIPTIVE BULLETINS

Jewell Mayes, in the 1920 annual
report of the State Board of Agricul-
ture, makes this statement:
We again renew the recommended
ton that there be prepared and print
ed a bulletin carrying description of
the opportunities for home seekers
and investors for each county.
We suggest that it would be econ
omy to issue such work in separate
bulletins for Northwest, Northeast,
Central, Ozark Area, Southwest and
Southeast Missouri Tor some other
classification rather than to publish
one big bulky bulletin.
Such a bulletin or bulletins would
be of inestimable value to Missouri
to farmers, to real estate dealers, to
bankers, to farm bureaus and farm
clubs, and to all agricultural workers
Ito everybody.
We have an outline of our own con-
victions and experiences of the past
three years in haOdling the orphan"
immigration correspondence, as to
how such bulletin information could
and should be compiled in co-opera-
ton with the members of the Legisla-
ture, the farm bureaus, farm clubs,
grange and farmers union officers,
and the local Chamber of Commerce,
committee covering these activities
along with the newspaper editors be-
ing appointed for each county, thus
guaranteeing to each county its own
proper description of county condi-
lions, within an agreed number Of
words. We solicit the opinion Of the
Board, the Legislature, the officials
and the public, on this proposition.
We of course need organized immi-

White-pine seed fit for use in nur-
series is worth about two dollars q
pound, and the purchaseable supply
depends entirely on human cone gath
erers. The red squirrel, which cuts
down. great many more cones than
it needs, renders therefore real SER
vice. In the white-pine belt many
people earn a tidy sum every fall by
searching the woods for the fat cones
that the energetic squirrels cut off.

Happy the man, in these days Of
shortage, who owns house that is
neither ugly nor uncomfortable! And
happier still is the prospective builder
who will conform honestly to good
standards for the new structure! We
may sigh for, the good old days Of
cheap materials and abundant labor,
but the responsibility for a pleasant
new house is no less personal now than
formerly. OF course utility should al
ways be considered, but that is no rea-
son why house should not also have
simplicity of line and good taste in
ornament.

Those who think that flying is not
much more risky than travelling on
railway train will be interested in the
figures of the English Air Ministry
for period of eight months in 1919.
The conclusion of the Investigators
is that had the same rate of accident,
journey for journey, been maintained
on railway travel $4,000 engineers
would have been killed and 100000 in
iured, and that 100000 passengers
would have been killed and more than
a million injured. According to their
figures the risk Of the aeroplane pas
senger is 800 times as great as that
of the railway passenger.
That only twenty out Of one hun
dred and sixty boys and girls contin-
ue to the end of their high school
course discloses the weakest point in
our4school system. The testimony OF
all Investigators is that the chief rea-
son why children leave school is that
they do not like school. Academic
subjects taught in routine way are
not attractive. But the fault is not
wholly that of the schools. Parents
should help their children to acquire
regular habits of application, insist
on study hours, and so make it diff
cult for their children to fail. The
most successful pupil is not he who
graduates to the first job that offers.
A young physician who had charge
of the medical and surgical relief
work of manufacturing plant asked
the doctor of the Public Health Ser
vice how he could induce his employers
to raise his salary, which was twelve
hundred dollars a year. Study the
needs of your plant" advised the ser.
vice doctor; Investigate the causes OF
accidents and of headaches and COLES
suggest ways whereby they can be re.
| duced and the lost time can be saved
and see what will happen" SiS
months later the physician told the
Service doctor that he had acted OF
his advice and that his employers hac
doubled his salary. Preventive ny
giene is always worth twice as much
as relief work.

grave disorders had occurred and that
the city OF Potrograd and the immediate
district had been placed in a state OF
siege with all authority given into the
