LARGE PRIVATE LOAN
 SUBSCRIBED IN PARIS

PARIS, May 6 (by Associated Press) Subscriptions have just been opened in Paris for one of the larg- est private loans ever floated here. The amount is SOO,OOO,O0O francs. The loan is issued by group of coal mines and iron industries of the north of France and the proceeds are to be applied to reconstruction.
 The interest and principal are guaranteed by the indemnities due the companies of the group under the law passed by the French parliament assuring companies and individuals compensation for all war damages.
 The floating of this loan enables the companies to continue the restor- ation of mines and reinstallation of iron works pending the payment of separations by Germany, without further burdening French government finances.

MARINE IN CHILE LONG
 BEEN IN SWAY

ANTOFAGASTA, Chile, May (by Associated ss)-Strikes have been in progress among the maritime work CTS here almost continuously for the past ten months and are reported to have caused heavy losses to the steamship lines. Business interests are much concerned over this situa- tion and it is feared that Antofagasta, which is the principal port in north ern Chile, may lose most of it's ship ping business as a result
 The British government Is reported to have made representations to the Chilean foreign office to the effect that British steamship companies would be forced to suspend calls here unless there was early improvement in the ports labor conditions.
 The newspapers assert Lloyd's London, has threatened to refuse to insure cargo destined for Antofa- gasta owing to the thefts of merchan- disc which are alleged to be wide spread in the port
 It is asserted that certain groups of port workers have now established a virtual boycott against all steam ship companies that are known to be transporting liquors. This is part of an agitation against the sale of liquor, which already had resulted in re- fusal of the portworkers to load or unload it here.

US. ARMY COST GERMANY MORE
 THAN FRENCH

COBLENz, May (by Associated Press) The pay of a second-lieuten- ant in the American army on the Rhine is equivalent at present rates of eXchance to that of Marshal Foch. l This may explain in part why the American army of 15,000 men costs ' Germany more than S0,000 French troops in the Mayence zone. It ac- counts also for the exaggerated state ment from German sources that l Americas fighting force cost Ger many more than all the allied armies of occupation.
 Marshal Foch's salary is 33,000 I francs. A secondlieutenant in the I American forces in Germany re- ceives $2,120 year which extra al lotments bring up to about $2,300. At the rate of exchange of fl francs and half to the dollar, the second lieutenant draws about 33,350 francs a year.
 The buck private receives $36 a month; a corporal $51.S0 a sergeant $63; and a technical sergeant $7420
 The French poilu at Mayence has to be content with 75 centimes a day a corporal receives 90 centimes and a sergeant two francs.
 | With the rate of exchange about 60 to 65 marks to the dollar, the American soldier in Germany draws a larger salary than many of the high German city officials.
 | The American soldier in the Co., blenz area living better than the average bourgeois family of either France or Germany, At each of the ten huts managed by the Young Mems Christian Association in Co., bleuz, the soldier can obtain better and cheaper food than in the average :, good restaurants of Paris or Coblenz.
 Here is the menu of the one Sun 1 day dinner at the Bahnhof hotel, the soldier could buy for 30 marks, or about a half a dollar: Cream of pea soup, roast Danish turkey, nut dressing, cranberry sauce, potato cro- : quets, Jersey sweet potatoes, creamed cauliflower, shrimp salad, radishes, olives, pickles, rolls, butter, marsh mallow ice cream, cake, coffee or tea.
 There has never been soldier in any army who has had at his dis. position the organization of welfare which the American soldier on the Rhine enjoys. Officers say the boys are living the lives of gentlemen and are behaving as such
 Although prohibition does not ex- ist in Coblenz the correspondent has yet to see a drunken American sol dier in the city and yet pay day, the dread of the military police has come and gone.
 The Germans seem to bear them no animosity and they are very popu- lar with frauliens and spooning might be added to the outdoor sports which find favor with many soldiers.

Education week is to be observed
December to 10. Its purpose is to
inform the public of the work and
needs Of the public schools, and to Sc
cure cooperation in meeting these
needs.
The average citizen does not read
educational literature, nor does he
visit schools TO learn what they are
doing. He has conception of school
only as he knew it in his own school
days. BY observing this special week
and having the citizens of West Vir-
GINA attend school, the teachers will
go far in arousing public interest in
their work
The teachers should take advan-
tage of this opportunity to emphasize
the important educational problems
such as: The need of better buildings,
libraries, equipment, and Fairgrounds
better attendance; longer term; and
better vocationl education Each
program should include the singing OF
patriotic songs and saIutes to the flag

ings should be held during the week.
This is the time when most parents can
attend. Leading citizens should be
asked to appear on the programs at
both afternoon and evening meetings.
The interest of the pupils should be
aroused by requesting them to make
posters, deliver four-minute speeches,
write slogans, and take an active part
on the programs.
The first day of Education Week
Sunday, as matter OF course, the
ministers of the county are urged to
discuss school subjects.
Monday, December 5-Physical ed
