The annual banquet of st. Paul's
Brotherhood of Peoples Christian
Church was held in the large dining
room of the church, Thursday even
ing at o'clock. The guest of honor
was Governor Robinson. Rev. L. f.
Smith, D. D., pastor of the Norfolk,

proper and if these consultations are
not proving very expensive because,
fer one reason, of the expense of
transporbating the children in such
districts. Mr. Shilling replied the
State Board never pretended to say
the consolidated districts could be run
at a cost less than that of the one
room schools. He said it is the pur-
pose of the board to eliminate the one
room schools wherever this can be
done.
6 Representative Hilyard of Kenton,
told the committee in some sections
of the State it is costing much good
money to eliminate the one-room
schools, but Senator Mcdowell claim
ed it was an advantage to the chill
dren by placing them in graded
schools and he argued they should not
weigh. the education of the children
against the money cost.

Teachers Not School

Chairman Drexler explained Lin

"and l am no Lincoln. 1t does not
depend on the size of the school where
the child is educated, what amount of
learning it is to get, but what the
teacher can get across the desk to the
pupil is what really counts"
Representative Latchum did not
think the State should go bankrupt
just 10 educate it's children.
The committeeman started to all
talk at once in a wrangle over the
question of education and its cost to
the State when Mr.. Hilyard said:
"This is no place for any arguments.
We can talk this over when we get
together to consider the budget"
The committee adopted a motion to
fix the appropriation for the Layton
Home for Aged COlOred People, in
Wilmington, at $1,000 a year the same
as it has been for several years.

Teachers Below Standard

In reply to a question from one of
the committeeman, Mr.. Shilling said
the State Board has n teachers in the
schools who have not passed the re-
quired examinations and are holding
only third grade provisional certifi-
Gates, but they have to. be employed
because the Board can get no others.
Relative to the question of trans
portation for children Mr.. Shilling
stated the State Board Of Education
would much prefer to have the item
for transportation included in the
boards general budget than to have
it set up as a separate item, provided
the budget was made adequate to in
clude the money to pay for this trans
portation, as this work is properly a
part of the school charges. He said
the same thing with reference to the
AmericanizatiOn work which is now a
separate item of cost. Mr.. Shilling
thought the AmemcanizatiOn work
and schools sould very properly come
under the care of the State Board of
Education.
Smyrna times., 1925-03-04
Transportation Cost $4,000

J. o. Adams, business manager of
the State Board Of Education, was
heard next on the question Of trans
portation and what it costs. He told
the committee for this year the total
estimate is $117,O47.91 with 1869 chill
dren involved, and that the State
Board does not think they can get
along next year with less than about
S130,000 which, approximately, is
what they have asked for in their
budget. He admitted contract trans
pontation is much cheaper and more
satisfactory than State owned trans
portation.
Chairman Drexler said it is a ques-
tion in the minds Of some if all con-
solidations of school districts are

SCHOLARS ENDEAVOR
TO SOLVE LANGUAGE
ny Universal Service.

LENINGRAD, Oct. 10.-One Of
the few unsolved riddles Of the world
has been put on display in the Asiatic
Museum here.
1t is a collection Of manuscripts
written in the Tangut language and
there is no one alive who can decipher
the contents
The Tangut speech has been dead
for centuries and scholars have been
unable to find any key to help them
understand the mysterious writings.
1t 10 fair guess that the Tangut
hieroglyphics will never give up their
secrets unless archaeologists should
discover some alphabetic keystone "a
them, similar to the Rosetta Stone
which gave the answer 10 the riddle
Of the ancient Egyptian inscriptions.
The new Asiatic Museum, which is
being opened as part Of the celebra-
ton in honor of the 200th anniver-
sary of the Academy of Science is
rich in the little known material Of
middle Asia.
Chief treasure Is the Tangut manu-
scripts which, it is believed. may be
regarded as having been written in the
tenth century. 1t is also guessed that
the text is about Buddhism.
The chances are even, however, that
the undeciphered manuscripts might
be the love letters of an Asiatic prince,
or the rich cook book OF some good
humorcd harem chef.

Chicago, Ill.-C. D. Hughes Of

tires once and never touch them
again until punctured or worn out.
Leading tire manufacturers, after
thorough tests, have approved Mr..

old theory that air escapes through
rubber. One initiation lasts the life
of tire, and tire mileage is doubled.
These caps retail for S1.25 for set of

FIRST STEEL SPAN FOR BRIDGE IS
 ON THE YUKON

The first steel span approximately no feet in length, for the new railroad bridge at Ferry, is being shipped north from the South on the Yukon. Two spans will be placed in position be- fore the ice goes out of the Nenana river, the second span being sent to Alaska probably within the next thirty days. It is estimated that about 40 cars will be necessary to move the steel from Seward to the bridge site at Ferry, Mile 371.
 Work on the piers during the win ter has progressed very satisfactorily, it is stated, under the supervision of c. H. Holmes, bridge engineer, and foreman James McGill About forty men are in the crew. The members of this crew have received much glory throughout the winter for the splen- did progress maintained even during the bitter weather and extreme cold which have been prevalent more or less for the last two months. Ferry is one of the coldest points on the Alas ka Railroad.
 Crane No. 6 will be sent north to the bridge site to assist in swinging the large span into position.

MARIENBURG, East Prussia, Feb. 26.-The Polish Corridor has proba- bly been the promoter of more pro- fanity than any other creation of the Versailles Treaty. It separates East Prussia entirely from the rest of Ger many, being a narrow strip of terri tory which connects Poland with the Baltic Sea. Therefore all railway trav- el to Russia and the new Baltic states as we'll as East Prussia, must pass over this corridor, and nobody can enter Danzig from the west by land without touching Polish soil.
 While Polish visas are required for all persons who wish to enter Danzig by rail from the west, few travellers going from Berlin or other cities in the west know the regulation. Dan- zig is free city. No Danzig visa is necessary to enter that city. Conse- quently tourists assume that a trip from Hamburg or Berlin to Danzig does not involve any border difficult

Argentine Highway Would
 Link All State Capitals
(By Associated Pressl

BUENOS AIRES, Feb. 25.-The building of a great national highway to link up Buenos Aires with all the state capitals of Argentina and from which branches would be constructed to important cities of each state is proposed by the public works de- partment It is understood that the department will soon begin work upon preliminary plans connected with the project.
 Former Minister of Public Works Loza, who is the author of the idea and who directed preparation of the plans shortly before retiring from the cabinet, says that the construc- tion could be financed by private interests, in return for concessions over more or less prolonged periods, or by system similar to that pur- sued in allowing railway conces- sions.
