in many years took place saturday,

Boyer presented his check for $4,000,
the amount he had on deposit, TO pay

over the money, he was informed by
telephone that there had ben an acct.
dent to member of his family and
that he was wanted at a hospital.
The minute the teller left Boyer pre-

IF AMERICA MAKES GOOD
WORLD WILL GO DRY

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-William E..
,Pussyfoot) johnson, prohibition lead
er, speaking today at union minis
tiers meeting here, declared that the
prohibition law in New York, "with all
its shortcomings, is better enforced
than the old license law ever was.'
He said that Europe was more inter
csted in happenings in New York City
than in any other part of the country,
and that 'proper enforcement OF the
law in this city means more to prohi-
bition throughout the world than does
enforcement in all the rest of the coun-
try combined"
"Mark you this phophecy,' Nj.
johnson added, "If America makes
good and enforces the law everywhere
as she already is enforcing it in most
parts, the whole world will follow in
our footsteps. But if America fails
civilization at this supreme moment
the cause of prohibition throughout the
world is dead for 100 years. A short
time ago the prime minister of Eng
land told friend of nine that il
America made good with her prohibi
ton law England herself would be dry
within ten years.

TEACHERS TESTS
ARE EXPENSIVE

Hundreds of dollars of state money
is squandered each year in conducting
teaching examinations in Colorado. ac-
cording to Miss Katheine Craig, state
superintendent of public instruction
This needless waste of state funds is
due to the antiquated methods employed
in the public school system throughout
the state, she says.
| g Vt present teachers certificates are
issued by sixty three county superin
tendents,'' declared Miss Craig.
"Thesc officials, of course, are of. va
ried opinions as to what constitutes
educational qualifications.
81 believe the authority of these off
cials should be vested in n single body
of special men and women who will be
able to secure the verified credentials
of preparation and experience OF the
applicants from institutions of high
learning and become acquainted with
the continued progress or advancement
necessary to successful teaching.
Time has long since passed when
the American public can afford to en-
trust the education of its children to
the uneducated and unframed US it has
done in the past.
1.-THE teaching profession should be
specialized at least as high as other
learned and technical professions The
only way to raise the standard of quail
ifcation for teaching is to enact laws
concerning certifcation.
THE issuance of certificates on ex-
aminations should be discontinued lm-
mediately. Certificates should be grant
ed upon the basis of educational qualifi-
cations, professional training, efficiency
and experience.
1T is well-known fact that an ex-
animation consisting of catch questions,
as now in vogue in Colorado, has long
since lost its real value. At present
Il business man may take the examina-
tions and get certificate, regardless
as to whether they have proper train
ing as teachers or not.'
For the reason that Colorado teach
ers' certificates are issued on examin-
ations, they are not recognized in other
states. At the same time Colorado loses
the services of many competent educa
tors because they refuse to take the
examination required, said Miss Craig.
There is now before the present gen
eral assembly a bill which would repeal
the present examination statute and
place the duties of the county superin-
tendents in this regard in the hands of
the state superint endent of public in
struction and board of five members
This board would be authorized to issue
certifcated upon the presentation of
proper credentials from institution OF
higher learning.
