DAME RUMOR is

But She Made County Dads

BENTON, Ill, May 20.-Dame Rumor,
the cause of millions of sorrows, the de-
stroyer Of truth, the wrecker Of homes,
the instigator of trouble and the guilty
mistress of innumerable wrongdoings,
has appeared in new role.

the terms Of the agreement, revert to the
heirs Of those granting the property.
Much ado was caused. Dust was re-
moved from the shelves, records were
delved into and the instrument in ques-
ton was pronounced.
1t was found that our lady Of idle talb
was mislnformed. The land on which
the courthouse is built and other property

acres, was decided to Franklin County

BREsT, France, May 2O.-The -cobble-

Ing repaired. Veteran cobblestones that
felt the tread Of new armies from new
land or bore upon them the weight Of
prisoners from the country beyond the
Kline as they worked and watched these

have served their time giving place to
newer and younger ones while are being

others.
Not much sentiment about a cobble-
stone think the old men of Brest as they
dig them up and toss them contempt
uously aside for the newer and less worn
ones yet back in America the cobble-
stone Of Brest will linger long in the
memory Of almost 100000 men. The
cobblestones Of Brest offered to countless
men of the new American armies their

LUXURY COST
EXCEEDS THAT
OF EDUCATION
More Spent for Cosmetics and
Tobacco Than on School
ing.

WASHINGTON, May 2o.-Ten times
as much money every year for luXurie5
as for educationl
That Is what is wrong with the edu-
catfOnal system in the United States, &C
cording to DR.. P. p. ClaxtOn, United
States commissioner Of education, who
has deemed the time propitiOus to
invite attention to the fact that Amer
lean women spend each year almost as
much for perfume. powder and cosmetics
as is spent in the whole country on
public instruction.
I'VE think we believe In education"
said DR.. Claxton. I'VE talk much about
it and many Of US have believed that we
pay much for it; that it in fact con-
stftutes a very great burden If indeed
Il is not our chief burden. No doubt
we do believe in education in a way, but
we have not and do not pay much for
#"
SPEND LESS
THAN BILLION.
Dr. Claxton backs up his argument
that we pay very little for public edu-
cation with some rather startling and
Illuminating figures. For instance, in
1918. the last year on which figures
are available. he shows that the total
!. expended for public education id the
DSG1fted States was somewhat less than
81 OO0. 900. 600 Figuring on the basis of
100 1000 900 population, that amounts 70
about SO a head.
Two years later. according to DIR.
CIaxton, in 1920, American women spent
on face powder. perfume and cosmetics
alone the not inconsidersble sum OF
sT5OOOO0OO, while American men land
women. too, IL is presumed; spend on
cigarettes the sum Of SSo0O0O.OOO. For
cigars there went S510,0OO,OO0 and for
tobacco in other forms another SSU0,OOO,-
900, making in all $2,1oO,OOO,OOO which
went for tobacco in a single year, or
more than twice the amount that was
expended on education.
LUxURIES COST
MORE THAN SCHOOLING.
The American people spent half a
billion for Jewelry in 1920 while they
were spending a billion for education,
and IN these dry and arid days $780,
100000 went for soft drinks.
But bad as these figures may seem,
worse are TO come. For luxurious
serVice'-whatever that may mean
! Americans got nd Of some $S,Oo.OO0OO
Rst year, and for Joy rides, pleasure
rsorts and racing" S Ike amount Even
ice cream and chewing gum have not
escaped DR.. Claxton's indicting calcula-
ton. and his arithmetic discloses that
$50 900, 900 was spent for Ice cream and
S5OOOO.O00 for chewing gum.
M~It IS interesting" continues DR.. Clax-
ZION. ito compare some OF these items
with the expenditures for education. The
amount paid for face powder. cosmetics
and perfume is only Sc. 100000 less than
tAa total amount expended for public
elementary and secondary education in
1918 and within $4,000 900 OF twice the
total amount Of salaries paid teachers in
