que son nativos continentales, ma
nifesta, los ha defendido ante los

una compensation adicional para sus
servicios. A los maestros de, "high

tales tambien los ha defendido ante
ell Consejo Executive. A todos los
maestros, incluyendo los graduados y
rurales, los ha defendido ante la Co
mission Economica. Dijo que le es gra
to manifestar que en- todas parties ha
encontrado buen deseo e interes de
ayudarle. Ell Consejo Executive hubo
de ajustarse a la opinion del "Attor-
ney General, que habfa 81 licitado, y
20 vote en- contra. Era natural q. asi
10 hiciese ell Comisionado de Instruc
cion".
Ell Comisionado nos ha dado para

gio a los comisionados municipales
en- abril de este aio, donde Sc expo
ne los motives por los cuales trat6
con tanta anticipation ell problema
de los maestros de ingles. Y nos ha
dieho ell Comisionado que hasta aho-
ra ningln pueblo Sc ha negado ayu
dar. Algunos no pueden por sus cor
tos recursos economicos, pero todos
reconocen la necesidad importancia
del servicio que prestan estos macs
tros que vienen del continente".
'Refriendose la circular que pu

Era pues, una vieja circular muy an

"Es lastima, nos ha dicho, que al

Ell senor Huyke nos ha dado para

SAGE TEA DANDY
TO DkRKEN HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Bring Back Color and
LuStre to Hair,

You can turn gray, faded hair beau
tifu1ly dark and lustrous almost over
night if you'll get bottle of
''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" at any drug store. Millions
of bottles @of this old famous Sage
Tea Recipe, improved by the addi-
ton of other ingredients. are sold an
nually, says a well-known druggist
here, because it darkens the hair so
naturally and evenly that no one can
tell it has boen applied
Those whose hair is turning gray
or becoming faded have a surprise
awaiting them, because after one or
two applications the gray hair van
ishes and your locks become Iuxuri-
antly dark and beautiful.
This is the age of youth. Gray
haired, unattractive folks aren't
wanted around, so get busy with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
tonight and you'll be delighted with
your dark. handsome hair and your
youthful appearance within a few
days.@Adv.

KANSAS CITY CHURCH
HAS "SPARKING PEWS'

Kansas City, Kan. May 17-Youth
will be served.
"Sparking'' pews for young people
are the attraction in one Kansas City
church. Rev. C. A. Finch. pastor of
the Central Christian church, has re-
served two pews at the rear Of his
church as an aid to Cupid.
Those who simply can't live with
out one another should be given
every opportunity possible to be to-
gether," said the Rev. Finch.
'Lovesick young persons are easily
embarrassed by the unsympathetic
eyes of dignif1ed church deacons and
puritanica1 matrons who perhaps
have forgotten their romantic yester-
days. That is my reason for reserv-
ing the rear pews for youthful low
ers" the pastor explained.
ct consider it far more appropriate
for the younger generation to spoon
at church than in motor cars along
lonely country roads. Let no youth
full couple search for the place to tell
loves story-they can spark in Gen.
trail church"
