need OF STATE
EDUCATION FUND
IS EMPHASIZED
Hardee Makes Prophecy That
Counties Must Raise VAL
uatiOns to Solve Problem.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 27.-Flori-
da's need for a state education fund
for the aid of poorer communities was
stressed at the opening session of the
Florida Education association conven-
ed at the high school Wednesday
night by three speakers, Governor
Cary A. Hardee, State Superintend-
ent W. S. Cawthon, and c. r. NJ.
Sheppard, Deland association presi-
dent and to this point was added by
the governor the prophecy that in Or
der to solve the problem of financing
the schools, counties would have 10
raise their property valuations to act
ual value.
In his extemporaneous address.
Governor Hardee lent the weight CT
his office to support many of the sug-
gestons made earlier in the evening
in the paper presented by DR.. Shep-
pard and the speech of DR.. Cawthon.
The adoption of the state amend
ment advocated by the state women's
clubs providing for the substitution
Of an appointive board Of five men,
bers for the present board Of educa-
ton composed of the governors cab
met heads, was recommended by DIR.
Sheppard at the close of his address
in which he flayed teachers for the
senting the needs of the schools and
for their failure to show a proper
professional spirit in supporting the
teachers association and endeavoring
by other means to improve their own
efficiency as public servants.
Sheppard also recommended
change of state law to provide for
direct education appropriation by the
state for school work. Florida was
one of the few states which had no
such provision for state aid, he said.
Because of the down pour of rain
which greeted the visitors in the
morning and continued until night
fau. attendance at the session was
a scant 700. By tomorrow, however,
when the conference work of the con-
vention opens, it is expected by state
officers, the registration here will
reach twelve or fifteen hundred.

death Of a young wife, had abandoned
the Old World and sought an anodyne

Spanish treasure ships, and although
her captain swore that, the Spaniards
had beset him without provocation, it
is difficult to avoid a suspicion that
the encounter had been brought about
quite otherwise. one of the Spaniards
had fled from the combat. and If the
Pride OF Devon had not given chase it
was probably because she was by then
in no case to do SO. The other had
been sunk. but not before the English

The association, which closed its
