men or women of the various counties
as members of the County Board. Two
of the most striking incidents of work

State Department:

results were that teachers generally

effects on public sentiment are yet
marked and permanent. DIR. G. w.

state Board of Education. He Is the
strongest man financially in the county

"In Madison County, almost as iso-

the results have been gratifying. One
big difficulty there has been the poll

Progress In Rural Schools

Probably the most notable progress
In the campaign of education has been
among the rural schools. The cam
paign has been productive of many i'm
prOvements and has awakened public
sentiment TO realization of the many
things yet TO be done. The most nota-
BILE of these improvements have been
longer terms of school, more trained
teachers, uniform and standard courses
of study, modern buildings and equip
ment, consolidation of many weak
districts into strong central districts
offering high school training.
W. T.. Halbrook is retiring after
nine years of service as State Agent
for rural schools. He reports that the
number of teachers, who have had
normal training, has increased from
two to thirty eight per cent; the length
of school term has increased from as
10 1OS days; the number of districts
voting the constitutional limit of -
mills has increased from $50 to 800 of
the one thousand districts in the noun
tain section. Eight years ago, III dis
tricts in this territory failed to vote
any school tax at all, whereas in 1925
only five districts voted no tax. There
have been successful consultations. A
statewide county superintendency law
is in operation. Five of the mountain
counties at first opposed county super
Visions Sharp, Fulton, Baxter, Marion
and Madison. Today. however, there
is a very fine school spirit in all the
counties and Il thorough cooperation
with the county superintendent, All
are agreed that all the wealth of the
State should he taxed equally to edu
cate all the children of the state and
the representatives who have been
elected from the mountain counties
have as a rule been loyal in their sup

now have to appeal to educational
forces. Practically all school dis
tricts vote the constitutional limit and
none vote no tax. Forty per cent of
the teachers have had some training
at the State Normal or the State Uni
versity, whereas eight years ago not
teacher had seen a training school
and fifteen teachers Of the county were
old men who had been teaching in the
county from 25 to 45 years. Educa-
tional progress here is a permanent
policy"

FOOD FOR CHILDREN WHO
TRAVEL

Many times, and especially during
the summer months. mothers are
forced to take their children on trips
with them. During these trips, the
parent is forced to contend with that
ever-present and serious problem Of
food for the child.
As in almost every other case, the
chief source Of worry, during these
periods, is the milk supply, Its source
its purity and its food value. II IL
not always convenient to get market
milk Of dependable quality for, In many
sections of the country, adequate ia
cllities for its care are not provided
To meet the needs Of mothers in these
trying situations, science has provided
form of milk, conveniently carried
and easily prepared. The cans are in
two sizes, the one containing six
ounces ana the other sixteen.
Evaporated milk is just pure cows
milk with more than half of the water
removed. None Of its food value is
lessened in fact its digestibllity Is
improved. II is easily mixed with wa
ter and is, undoubtedly, the most prac-
tical form of milk for use as food for
children. Some of the country's lead
ing pedlatriclans recommend its use,

CARE OF coNVALEscENT IN
SUMMER


For those who are just recovering
from a serious Illness the problem of
food Is a serious one. The patient,
though well on the road to recovery,
is usually weakened by the rigors OF
disease and the excessive heat is wont
10 sap his energy. Hence, the foods
that are consumed during this period
should be considered carefully as to
digestibillty, food value, ease of as
simllation, purity and sterlity. These
are important in any food but espe-
clally so when the consumer Is not
strong and healthy.
In most cases, the one who is con
valesclng consumes milk in large
quantities. This food contains all of
the elements that are essential to the
body. If milk is pure and germless,
II is easily dlgested and assimllated.
Where the milk supply is uncertain
or the quality not of the best, evap-
Grated milk should be employed. 1t is
sterile; 1t is just pure milk with about
sixty per cent Of the water removed.
Its double richness may be modified,
II desired, by the addition Of water or
II may be used just as It is, where
rich, creamy dishes are desired.
Many people make the mistake OF
confusing evaporated milk with con-
densed milk. They are not at all sim'-
lar In appearance, composition or
taste. They cannot be used for the
same purposes; condensed milk Is u
combination of sugar and milk; evap.
Grated milk has no added sugar, being
pure milk OF double-rich quality and
food value.
Following are recipes Of easily pre-
pared dishes and foods that are well
suited for the invalid and the con.
valescent.
Loeanberry Cream.
X cup evapOrated " cup lOganberry

MONEY EXPECTED
TO MEET SALARIES
Rudolph Confident Congress
Will Vote Enough to Pay
. D. C. Workers.

Commissioner Rudolph expressed
confidence today that Congress would
grant d supplemental appropriation to
meet the increased salaries being paid
certain District employees this year as
the result of their reallocation to high
er grades. and thus avoid the necessity
of depriving these employees of part Of
their pay near the end of the fiscal
year.
II developed yesterday that there is
not sufficient money available to meet
present salaries in certain offices. in
Guiding the Health Department. build
ing inspection division and corpora
riOn Counsels office, throughout the II
months of the current fiscal year.
The deficiency will occur because
some of the employees in those offices
appealed for and obtained reallocation
TO higher grades under the classitica-
tion law after the appropriations for
this fiscal year had been made.
The controller has ruled that 1t is
mandatory to pay an employe the IN
Crease when he is elevated to a higher
grade. The District is required there
fore, to pay employees at these higher
ratings, and rely upon Congress to
make up the difference before the ts-
cal year draws to close.
Maj. Donovan said today that II
Congress should fail to make the sup
elemental appropriation some steps
would have to be taken near the end
of the year to prevent the deficiency
from occurring.

Girl, l6, Renounces
Romany for Ways
OF Modern Women

Surrounded by numerous kinsmen,
tribe, 16-year-old Katie Adams, stand
ing before Judge Kathryn Sellers in
Juvenile Court today, definitely aban-
doned the ways of Romany for the
sake of her dreams of, future great
ness as an American artist, and re-
nounced her own family to make her
home with strangers .-
Katie, dressed in her new American
clothes, looked a great deal like any
other disillusioned little girl as she
told the pitiful tale Of her life since
leaving her friends in Seattle to come
here and take care of her sick mother
She vehemently denied a love affair
with any one, and in her nearly per-
feet English told of receiving a mes
sage that her mother was Ill, but after
Fastening here she discovered that
this was not true. Because she has
not married, she says she has violated
a tribal law and is In disgrace among
her people, even her mother having
turned against her.
Judge Sellers said that apparently
the girl was not appreciated by her
parents, and If she wished to be like
other girls she should have the chance.
Katie was then sent to the board of
guardians, who will select a home for
her.
When the mother heard this she
turned to the child and said, Katie,
don't you want to come home with
me?" To which the girl replied. mo;

Terrapin Industry
Revival Is Sought
By Federal Bureau

Practically eaten out of existence
years ago by the growing demand for
the succulent flesh of the diamond
back terrapin, the Bureau of Fisheries
is planning a revival of the terrapin
industry. which employed many hun
dreds of persons in Maryland a half
century ago.
The shell-back crawler of the
marshes and low spots which So years
ago sold for 81 a<dozen now brings
something in the neighborhood of 500
a dozen.
The Fisheries Bureau plans now to
bring back the terrapin industry to
the days of it's pristine glory. In an
official bulletin today, the bureau de-
clared any householder with a little
vacant land and a swamp or watery
place can raise diamond-back terrapin
and command a price of $50 dozen. 1t
has devised a scheme whereby. the
young terrapin does not die off as
quickly as in other days.
Fifty years ago the terrapin indus
try was one of the thriving industries
in southern and eastern Maryland. In
the marshes and along the low-lying
coves Of the historic Eastern Shore the
diamond-b back grew in great abun-
dance until some epicure found his
flesh most delicious to the taste. That
sealed his doom and today he is de-
clining species.

FRENCH ARE READY
FOR BIC OFFENSIVE
Troops in Line for Attack
That Is Expected to Crush
Rebel Leader.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
FEZ, August 21.-Preparations for
a general offensive against the Moor
ish tribesmen have been completed.
The staff of Gen. Naulin, the French
commander-in-chief, working with re-
markable rapidity. has got all the
troops into the positions in the line
assigned to them.
Meanwhile cfeaning-up operations
by the French continue. The columns
operating on the western section of
the battle front have advanced a con-
siderable distance, meeting with slight
resistance. They have occupied the
southern and western slopes of Gjebel
Guelb, the highest point of which is
5000 feet above sea level. In the
center a French column has reached
the valley of Oued- -El.Hamar, and on
the east front another column has oc-
cupied the southern part of the Tan
dert range without opposition. The
French troops occupy the whole line
of advanced posts in the Taxa region,
where Gen. Boichut has completely
encircled the Tsoul country. 1t is
said the entire Tsoul tribe will offer
submission to the French.
The news of the success of Gen.
Boichut spread with extraordinary
rapidity, causing dissident tribesmen
not only in the immediate vicinity,
but all along the line, to negotiate for
surrender. This is said to be par
ticularly the case in the western sec
ton, where the cause of Abd-el- Krim
the Moroccan rebel leader, appears
to be badly compromised.
The establishment of posts at
Dar-el-Abbas and Oar r-el-Ayes by
French and Spanish troops raises a
barrier against disaffection and in.
sures the safety of the Ghard region.

McCarl Answers
Court Order Only
AS Sign of Respect

Out of comfy and respect for the
court. but without submitting himself
to Its Jurisdiction" Controller General
McCarl has filed answer to a rule
recently issued against him by Chief
Justice Mccoy directing him to ex-
plain why he withheld the retired
pay Of Owen Donnelly, former SER
geant in the Army, until Donnelly
had repaid a claim of the United
States.
Donnelly had been ordered to the
Philippines from the Plattsburg bar
racks and stored his household effects
in the gymnasium with consent of the
quartermaster. In his absence the
building was destroyed and Congress
passed an act reimbursing the soldier
for the loss and an Army board
awarded Donnelly 1916, which was
paid to him. McCarl now finds this
allowance was improperly made and
directed repayment by Sergt. Don
nelly. who asked the court for an in
junction.
McCarl says the matter comes
under his discretionary powers under
acts of Congress and may not be re-
viewed or enjoined by the court. He
asks dismissal of the rule.
