Wkp spring millinery. If 1t were not
for the lure of the Southland hats in
shop windows the spring millinery sea-

But once those Southland hats have

all charm for the feminine heart.
Spring Is on the way and spring hats

And II is cunning. OF the milliners,

smart turban of dark straw with
twist OF brim that spells newness and
a crispness of style that betokens an

FIRST CLASS DISTRICTS
MAY MAINTAIN SCHOOLS
EDUCATION DETECTIVES

Directors Of school districts Of the
nrst class have power to establish
and maintain schools and depart
ments for the education and train
ing Of any class Of defective youth
according to an opinion rendered to
the state superintendent Of public
instruction by the attorney general.
The law Of 1921 provides SUFFICIENT
warrant for the establishment Of
schools for defective children by the
school districts Of the hrst class.
Attendance at such schools would
clearly fall within the provisions Of
act emitting the district to an appor-
tionment based upon five times the
actual attendance.
The attorney general holds that It
Is not necessary that the children who
attend the schools for detectives
esta blished by school districts Of the
first class be among those reported
and listed a. defective In the annual
report Of school clerk IN order to
entitle the district to apportiontnent
for their attedance on the basis Of
nYe times the actual days attendance.

vice-president Of the Newspaper pro-

ian and one of the best known Eng
lish journalists, in an interview with
the United Press.
Lord Riddell was the British Of
fetal press agent at the Paris Peace
Conference and since then he has
given out to both British and Ameri-
can correspondents, whose confidence
he enjoys, the news Of virtually
every international conference in
which England has been engaged.
The most beneficial way in which
the news of the disarmament confer
ence could be made public, Lord Rid
dell believes, is through three chan

proceedings to an accredited repre-
sentative Of the press of that country
who, in his turn, would communi-
cate such information to the corre-
spondents;
Third, when circumstances permit,
there should be either a verbatim re-
port of the proceedings or full Of
fetal resume.
II am strongly in favor of pub
licity," Lord Riddell told the United
Press. "But I have been a business
man, and know how businss agree

they are not arrived at by long

Indirect revenues of the state are
exceeding expectations. Figures for
July on gasoline tax have astonished
state officials and others wha were
strong in its advocacy, but uncertain
as to the limit Of its earnings.
At the July rate, the earnings for
a year will be in excess of $1,000, 900.
DR.. P. H. Carlyon, sponsor of the
gasoline tax bill in the legislature,
estimated in discussions Of the meas.
ure that 1t would produce between
$500, 900 and 100000, and many
thought he was too high. The TAI
goes into the bodybuilding fund.
with this surprisingly large in
come from the gas tax, we shall be
able to carry out In full, in all de-
tails, the road-building program
adopted by the last legislature for
this biennum," says DR.. Carlyon.
This, in spite of the fact that our
federal aid will be much less than
last year. we understand that there
will be $25,000.000 Immediately for
the state for the remainder Of 1921
and $75,000,000 available for 1922,
instead Of $1O0,O00,000 as formerly.
This means we will be able to add
about $350,000 to Cur road funds
from federal aid for 1921 and a little
over si,0OO,000 in 1872. In 1920,
we received $1,440,0c0 in federal
aid"
The poll tax income is also exceed
ing the estimates of most Of the men
who. were influential in pushing 1t
through the legislature. It will net
more than $1,700,000, according to
the last figures. The counties re-
tanned 20 per cent for cost Of collec-
ton. sending only 80 per cent to the
state, which means that the total
poll tax receipts will exceed $4,000
900.

way. The other may suggest some
thing else. That is the method OF

"If each one knows, on the other
hand, that every move and every
chance word is being reported, he
will be shackled and prevented from
doing his best. 1t is by informal
talks that you arrive at agreement.
Zone must guard against these

that after all the delegates are human
and that International questions are
settled very much like business ones
are settled. They will go out for

settle difficult questions by SPELL

Full reports are a further hind
rance in that they make each dele
gate stand on his dignity and not
appear to be yielding. A verbatim
report does not always represent the
atmosphere of the discussions.
II think 1t will be found that ow-

gives report to its press represen-
