County Teachers to
Have Institute on
Friday, October 20

A teachers institute for all white
teachers in Putnam county will be
held on October 20 at Palatka. The
institute will be held under the aus
pices of the general extension divi-
sion of the University Of FLORIDA, and
B. C. Riley, director, has advised
County Superintendent c. H. Price
that a strong faculty from the uni
versity has been chosen to conduct
the institute. These teachers insti-
tutes are a new feature of the gen
eral extension work and will be held
in limited number of counties this
year; consequently it is, considered
fortunate that Putnam county is in
cluded in the number.
The general theme for the insti-
tute program will be en- richment of
the subject matter in the school cur
riculum and better teaching meth
DDS. The institute faculty has been
so chosen that a specialist is pro-
vided for each group of teachers. In
cluded are DR.. Roemer, A. NJ. Ph.d.,
professor of secondary education at
the University of Florida; Mrs. Roe
mer, teacher primary education, and
DR.. O. I. Woodley, formerly presi-
dent of Marshall college, Huntington,
West Virginia.
All schools in the county will prob
ably observe holiday on the date Of
the teachers institute in order that
instructors may be able to attend
the event. 1t is expected that 100
per cent of the teachers of this coun-
fly will attend the institute, which
will undoubtedly be one of the most
profitable meetings of the year.

before the chamber of deputies is
variously estimated at from four to
six billion francs, which is about tho
sum expended annually by France be-
fore the war. This is about as far as
any one gets in trying to fathom the
financial situation. There Is no sys-

balance could be struck. Senator
Berenger. reporter of the senate

PRUSSIA REVIVES RULE
FOR SUGAR RATIONING

BERLIN. November 1S.-SuRar ra-
tioning will be introduced In Prussia
December I. thus reviving a policy
which was adopted as war measure,
but which vas dropped about two
years age. when economic conditions
improved. Revival of commodity ra-
tionins is attributed to scarcity of
products.
When the law becomes effective, no
person will be allowed more than one
kilogram of sugar monthly. and will
be able to obtain this amount only
upon producing written permit from
the government. All dealers. includ-
ing wholesalers. will be required to
obtain licenses for handling sugar.
The middleman's profit will be re-
duced to a minimum. and he will be
prohibited from mixing domestic with
imported sugar. and from requiring
consumers to use a certain amount of
the latter in order to obtain a guam
tity of the home products. Retailers
will be permitted to sell only for
household use. Sugar at present is re-
failing for los marks a pound, and is
the first product to be rationed since
wartime control was relaxed, al
though the poorer classes have been
able to get bread and milk at re-
duced rates through cards authorizing
them to make purchases.

LONDON. November 18.-Much criti-
cism has been directed against the
faculties Of Cambridge and Oxford. as
being responsible for the extravagant
life lead by many of the undergrad
yates Of the universities. The subject
gained wide publicity recently when
a student committed suicide because
Of financial difficlties.
DIR. Farnell. vice chancellor of Ok
ford University, In his address at the
opening of the fall semester, said he
had to admit that complaints. occa-
sionally lodged against undergradu-
ates of extravagant living, were not
altogether without foundation. He
blamed the local shopkeepers for CIV
ing students credit and urged that
students be limited in the amount of
money allowed them.
DR.. Farnell pointed out that the days
Of "Pendennis," when undergraduates
were allowed to have parties In their
rooms and to be without restrictions
out Of school hours. had gradually
come to an end, and he said nova
days cases Of drinking among stu.
dents were almost unknown.

CAPE HAITEN. November ls.-
Haiti often has been referred to as

Haitian woman of the predominatins

American flappers In two of her most

BRITISH SEEK TO LURE
U. S. FILM DIRECTORS
BY tho Assoe,ated pres,.

LONDON. November 1S.-British
Aim producers, after more than three
years Of unsuccessful effort. now are
making pictures with which, they
claim. they will be able to compete
with American productions. Accord
ing to the British producers, their
greatest difficulty has been in OBJ
tanning directors at salaries they
have been able to offer. Recently,
however. the producers obtained
moro funds, and now they are able
to make tempting offers to American
directors, as we'll as American stars.
Tho first contingent Of directors
from America, which arrived six
months ago. set about imme mediately to
change completely tho antiquated
English ideas by building tho most
latest equipment. These directors
believe that they will be able to pro-
duce the best pictures in the world
in England within year, because of
tho possibility Of getting unlimited
exterior and interior scenes Of mod
ern and old England, which must be
constructed, often incorrectly, when
used in other countries.
The results OF these initial efforts
have been moro than satisfactory to
the producers and three super-pro-
ductions already have been placed on
tho market and have met with pub
lie approval. despite the bad reputa-
ton which earlier English Aims have
mer1ted.
