THE BREAD AND THE
BUTTER QUESTION

Six thousand teachers quit the
profession in Texas annually.
Can you blame them when you
compare their annual earning
capacity with that of men or wo-
men educated for business?
Those entering the business
world thru the route of the Book
keeping, Stenographer, Private
Secretary or Operator, draw bet
ter salaries, twelve months of the
year instead of six or nine months
and if they are made of the right
kind of stuff it is moi long before
they are promoted to assistant
manager of a business concern,
or engaged in business for them
selves.
Make a comparison of the teach
er who after graduating from the
High Schools spends from one to
two years in the State Normal and
hundreds of dollars preparing
himself, and has been teaching
five years, with the Bookkeeping
Stenographer or Operator who
has only spent from three to six
months in obtaining his educa-
ton after graduating from High
School and from one hundred to
two hundred dollars, and has had
five years experience in the busi-
ness world. You will find that the
one who has spent only few
months in obtaining his educa-
ton, and a small amount of
money is drawing twice the sal
airy of the teacher, regardless of
the fact that the teachers spent
more time and money in the pre-
paration for their life work.
More interesting facts on this
subject can be had by writing the
Tyler Commercial College at Ty.
Ter, Texas, for their large illus
'trated catalogue giving full parti-
culars of Americas largest bust
ness training school, having four
thousand enrollments annually
Thorough practical courses of
business training given either by
personal attendance or by cores
pondence. Read what teachers
say who have attended this insti-
tuition, as to how they have in

PLANT CORN EARLY

There are two more or less dis
tinct planting seasons for stand
ard strains of corn in this section,
namely about March lSt and
April 5, is very apt to be destroy
ed by the corn root worm. The
first planting season gets the corn
out of danger before the root
worm makes it's appearance; and
the second planting period comes
after the first generation of root
worm has passed into the chrysa-
lis or resting stage.
1t behooves us to use only the
first planting season as it is i'm
possible to Sccceed with corn
|planted later on account of the
cane borer.
BY planting early not later than
the first week of March, or pro-
badly the latter part of February,
we can raise fairly good corn to
maturity before The cane borer
effects it to any appreciate de-
gree.
If you are interested in getting
seed corn, write or telephone me
as I'm getting orders for fifty or
more, bushels in order to get is
cheaper. Prices good. Calhoun

EPWORTH LEAGUE SOCIAL

Monday evening at ZOO o'clock
the members of the Epworth Lea
que of the NJ. E. church met on
the church grounds in response
to an invitation from the Jen-
nlngS League to attend a social
Iglven in the beautiful NJ. f.
church of that city. From here
they motOred over to have one of
the most enjoyable times expert
enced in a long time. Those at
tending from here were: Mr.. and
Mrs. Jongema, Misses Mae and
Harriette Carlisle, Lillian Grauke
Dora and Amy Radeke, Edrie
Doan, Olive Scoggins, Messrs.
Fred Davis, Ercell Fuller, Char
ley DOan, Elmer and Frank Har-
riS.
On arriving there they we're
uSheCed into the beautiful league
room of the church, acquainting
themselves to the hosts and host
eSSeS in a joyful manner. After
spending some minutes chatting
and laughing together everyone
was requested to be seated
around the room in chairs spec
tally placed. They were then fav-
Ored with piano duet charming
ly rendered by the Misses Mildred
Diehl and WinOna Montange.
After this duet games of all sorts
were played, the first being the
game of Heart Chase. In this
game some person is blind-fold-
ed and placed in the center of the
room. Those lined around in a
circle pass a heart" from one to
the other until the blinded person
counts ten. Then the blind is
quickly taken from his eyes and
the one caught with the heart has
to take his place. The next game
played was do you know your
neighborS?" This is a game re-
quiring action on the part of
those concerned because when a
leader" asks you if you are con-
tended with those sitting by you
and you answer "No", then the
neighbor has to move, and move
quickly. If the leader beats some
other person to the seat vacated
the unfortunate one has to take
his place. The next game played
was more in shape of a contest.
Two selected leaders chose sides
and from each side two judges,
one cracker eater; one love-Song
lady; one story teller: and one
boy prOp0Ser were chosen; The
Judges decided on the sides win
ming in the contest. Miss Dora
Radeke won in the love song con-
test, Miss Lillian Grauke won in
the St. Valentine story contest.
Frank Harris was the champion
cracker eater, having eaten three
crackers and then whistle. The
Jennings boys were the champ
ions when it came proposing.
After these delightful games
refreshments were served of a
delicious nature and music from
gifted singers filled the atmoS-
phere. Among those called upon
to render mirth and cheer to the
affair in the form of music were
Miss Olive Scoggins and Mr.. Ell
mer Harris of Welsh, and Miss
Mildred Diehl of Jennings, a set
of very talented and gifted per-
sons.
Then, everyone was served to
some of the best "home brew"
made. They termed it Dan Gu
pid's home brew" and it surely
made everybody feel ready for
the arrow" After having express
ed most enjoyable time the
Welsh Epworthians went their
way homeward, expressing in
songs and story to one another,
the wonderful time they had.
