BERLIN, January 25.-'Don't be
a teacher" warns the municipal
council of Berlin; in an open letter
to the newspapers.
According to the Berlin board Of
education, there are 1900 unem-
ployed teachers in Germany, and
for these, as well as for those men
and women now studying in nor
NAL schools, there Is no prospect
Of employment In their chosen
work for years to come.
Teachers who have more than
forty children under their care are
paid by the government, but this
leaves each city to look out for its
own teachers In smaller schools
and classes. Thus Berlin has 100
teachers who do not come under
this government-paid category. in
addltlon to almost as many assist
ant teachers, whose number has
grown greatly since the war.
Because of the decrease in birth
during the war;" continues the let
ter. "and because Of the unfortu-
nate conditions continuing since
the war, the number Of our school
children is considerably smaller
than before 1914, SO that the teach
ers whom the city is able to install
will in the next few years continue
to decrease.
Because Of this relatively small
number Of school children. the city
of Berlin will not assign new
teachers and will not fill vacancies
as they occur. but instead Will
combine smaller classes under one
teacher. Excepted only are posi-
tions for teachers in technical and
special schools"
The question of the assistant
teacher is one that is greatly af-
fected by this necessity for econ
omy on the part of the municipal
government. After the war, occu-
patton for numerous unemployed
or financially embarrassed men
and women was found by the city
government in this way. The as
sistant teachers often took the
place Of teachers who were i'll or
on leave Of absence. and continued

taking up Of teaching as a calling

should take this carefully into con-
sideration when the question of a
life-work for his daughter or son

consider whether the expense of a

to sell or mortgage priceless Gobelin

Plain Jim White was his name, but

Buffalo Bills dress, his speech and
the way he walked. He let his hair
grow long In imitation Of Cody. He
was always at the famous scouts side.
and took more care Of Buffalo BilIs
guns and horses than he did of his
own.
Two stories Of how he got his name
are told. One Is this: General Sher-

Kan, and was seeking Buffalo Bill to
guide him on a buffalo hunt. White
appeared and told the general that
Cody was away.

According to the other version of
Whites christening, one night at Fort
Laramie he claimed the right to be
known by some other name than sim
pie Jim White, something descriptive
of his close friendship for Buffalo Bill.
"All right" said Major Morton Of
the Ninth infantry, "We'll call you

SENATOR DIAL ON
COTTON FUTURES

In a recent speech Senator Dial
called attention to the iniquity of the
cotton futures market stating that he
had introduced last year an amend
ment to the cotton futures contract
law that has been pending before 4
subcommittee of the senate for II
months. The South Carolina Senator
said that he was not asking sympathy
but was asking justice for the cotton
farmers of the south.
The indisposition of Congress to do
anything for the suffering farmers
aroused the Senator to such an extent
that he used the caustic language
which is given below.
Senator Dial quoted from the re-
port of the National Agricultural
Congress giving the cost of raising
a crop of cotton in which these figures
were pres=nted:
The balance of S1S2.5O represents
labor for the entire year for man,
wife and two children, which is 81
cents day for 800 days. On 365
day basis, this gives a total revenue
of 10 cents per day for each member
of the tenants fanny of four. That.
these figures are not overdrawn can
be readily proven by reference to the
production statistics Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, which are readi-
ly available.
Referring to this report, the Scna-
tor said:
IL charge the Congress-and re
alize that this is pretty strong Ian
guage-with being in favor of the
bears on the cotton market-unin-
Intentionally, of course, but the dis
asterous result for the farmer is the
same. The law simply amounts to con-
fiscation, and l am making every ef-
fort in my power to get the Agrlcui-
tural Committee of the Senate to re-
port this amendment. If it should be
reported, / believe that there will be
little objection on the floor of the
Senate. If we can get it enacted into
law, it would help the condition of the
laboring people of my section of the
country more than anything else or
perhaps everything else that we could
do in their behalf.
"These figures, Mr.. President, are
not mine. They are from this report
of our own committee, and ! say they
are startling, indeed"

POLAND CLAIMS OLDEST MAN,
A NAPOLEONIC VETERAN

Paris, May 27.-Although Poland.
in its present form, is among the
youngest countries of Europe, the
Poles claim among their citizens the
oldest man in the whole world.
John Krasinski, the last survivor of
the Napoleonic armies, fought 10
years ago in the Battle of Borodino.
Aged % then, he therefore today
counts the venerable number of 1872
years.
Taken prisoner by the Russians
not in the World War but during Ma
poleon's Moscow retreat-Krasinski
settled down in Russia and fought in
Crimea. Last year his "young wife,
as he calls her, died at the age of
SO. Having then learned that the Po-
lish Government was making grants
Of land to veterans, Krasinski be-
thought himself of his original nation
ality, and as his excellent claim to be-
ing veteran could not we'll be denied,
the old man is today busy tilling land
in the province of Posen.

WHY DO WE EAT?

From the earliest history of man
his efforts have been directed toward
the maintaining of life. This has in
volved combat with and flight from
enemies, the quest of food and mate.
These primary needs are as insis-
tent today as they ever were. Though
modern man realizes that he cannot
live by bread (and meat) alone, that
he has needs of higher nature, men,
til and spiritual. Still the need or prop
er phyhical nourishment cannot be ne
elected without disasterous results.
With the development of civiliza-
tion has come a refinement in the
food of man that has brought in its
train series of physical ailments.
Therefore, man finds it necessary to-
day to turn both his science and his
art toward the problem of feeding
man, the animal.
1t is possible for man, while eating
three meals day, to die of starva-
ton. Thousands upon thousands do
develop diseases of malnutrition,
such as palagra, Berri Berri, Scurry
and Rickets Tin children), while eat
ing an abundance of food, but food
being improperly balanced, deficient
in certain properties.
The food of our early ancestors
was bulky, that is, contained large
proportion of undigestable matter. We
find that a large part of civilized
mans intestine trouble is due to his
refinements of food, the Elimination of

The bulkiness is supplied by such

these bulky properties and it has been
salad greens as spinach, turnip salad,
cabbage, celery, etc.
We eat for nourishment, to satisfy
the craving for food. We dine for
pleasure, to enjoy the flavor of food.
For civilized people, not only eat
ing but dining is IA necessary luxury.
Attention should not always be fo-
cused on nourishment.

This is as it should be. Foods should
