FIGHTING Teacher
WINS SALARY RAISE

CFIICAGO,-Jenne D'Arc OF peda-
gogy!
Margaret A. Haley, of this city,
has earned the title.
For 20 years she has been fight
ing for school teachers all over the
country.
That's why, to untold thousands
she is known as the fighting school

The other day Miss Haley handed
Chicago's grade and high school in
structors a 100000 yearly salary
increase.
How?
BY fighting for it.
Her official title is business rep
federation, an organization which
she aided in establishing.
Her long series of battles for bet.
ter pay and working conditions
brought her into national promi-
nence.
Whenever called upon, she has
ijourneyed to San Francisco, New
York, Boston and other cities to di-
rect the fights of school teachers
in those places for a square deal.
3 AIlO margaret f1dlSy just loves
good scrap.
"I've been in plenty of them," she
says, but up to date there's not a
scratch on me. (
For my teachers" Miss Haley
has foresworn marriage and sacri.
feed other comforts, until freedom
is achieved-freedom from fear of
authority and political domination"
she says.
1.-THE fighting schoolmarm'' fig
ures she has been mixed in Sc major
engagements and scores of minor
scrimmages during her 20 years of
constant vigil.
Besides championirg teachers,
Miss Haley is also interested in the
development and welfare of women
generally. She was one Of the
prime movers in the suffrage move
ment.
II want teachers to have better
pay and better working conditions
because such things mean better
teachers" says Miss Haley.
"And better teachers mean better

SABBATH SCHOOL LESSON
For July %. Dan. 6.
BY DIR. MARION MICH. HULL

ing. It was his faith in God that had
stopped the mouths of lions. God
was the deliverer; Daniels faith was
the means of communication-the
line through which the powers was
transmitted.
Daniels test was long in coming.
He had had things all his own way
ever since he was lad, and had
purposed in his heart not to defile
himself with the kings meat. His
friends had passed through the fire,
literally and spiritually; but he had
enjoyed one promotion after an
other, and long years of honor and
position. But the test finally came
when he was an old man over
eighty. Shadrach, Meshach and
Abednegro had refused to bow down
to an image. Theirs was negative
refusal of allegiance. Daniels was
positive refusal. He not only did
not pray to Darius, but he continued
to pray to God as aroretine.
Victory of Faith
Daniels integrity Of character; his
fearlessness; his habit Of stated in
tervals of prayer, and his observ-
ance of them in spite of the very
busy life he lived; his faith in believ-
ing that God would do what Solomon
had asked Him to do Il Kings
SAT, 49,; his thankfulness for past
favors in the time Of great danger;
his quietness of heart; his holiness
in testimony, giving God the glory
all of these things, and more, might
be- discussed at length with profit.
There is one we should like to EN-.
phasize-it was Daniels faith. That
is something you need every day,
and something you may have. In re-
viewing the history of the men
whom God had used, the writer to
the Hebrews gives a long list Of the
things faith, has accomplished; then
adds "who through faith subdued
kingdoms, wrought Righteousness,
obtained promises, stopped the
mouths of lions" Heb. 1889. We
honor them and think of them as
some strange extinct species Of ami
NAL. But God has not changed, and
God is willing to honor faith now as
He did then. You may not have any
Kingdoms to subdue, nor any lions
to fear, but there are wonderful
III LlldI AL1uSCo at yOuI
feet that you may obtain through
faith.
You deplore your lack of faith:
you are powerless because you don't
believe what God says. But faith
cometh by hearing and hearing by
the word Of God. If you give time
to prayer, hearing what God has to
say to you, and time to the study
Of His word, you will learn to know
Him better-and faith in Him will
be the result. Faith that will lay hold
of and obtain the promises God has
already given.
Daniel was wonderful man; but
you may be, too. Form his habit OF
prayer, take time to be holy, speak
oft with thy Lord-then you will
believe, and believing, you will re:
alize what God has for you now.
Victory over every foe is yours, if

bale weighed 500 and was shipped
to Savannah to be auctioned. Both
bales were ginned at Omega. Geor-
gia's 1921 first bale was ginned by
Mr.. Rogers. .,
The early arrival of these bales
