COE GIVES PROOF
OF COMPETENCY
AS SCHOOL HEAD

Horace G. C0e, candidate for re-
election as superintendent of lmpe-
rial County schools holds a most
rnviablc record along educational
lines. Not only does he hold high
degrees and credentials, but he has
had years Of practical experience
along educational lines.
After being graduated from col
lcge, Coc became high school
principal and. for 10 years held
that position in Iowa and CalifOr-
MIA schools. Before coming TO
California Coc spent five years as
county superintendent of schools in
Iowa. Since coming to this state
he has served as a high school
principal, as city superintendent of
schools in FL Centre for four years
and for five years as superintendent
of schools of Imperial County, to
which office he is seeking reclec-
ton in the August primaries. In
addition to the recommendation of
having held the above positions,
Coe holds the highest teaching and
ScDDOI auln lnlStfaIlDn cTtueHlldlS
given in the state of California.
Since Coe has been in the office
of superintendent he has had under
his supervision more than 800
teachers yearly. His policy has
been to visit every class room i'll
the county personally during the
school year and in that way he
makes contact with each of these
teachers personally and with over
10000 pupils yearly.
Handles Large Sum
He keeps Iedgers and approves all
expenditures for 30 school districts,
which work entails the handling Of
over 81 100000 each year.
He has established rural super
vision in the county, thereby
strengthening the work of teachers
and making less failures among pu-
rural schools has been raised
throughout his term until Imperial
County schools stand out because
of the high type of pupil graduated
from the rural grade schools.
When Coc was elected superlntcn-
dent five years ago. according to
the state annual report the cost
per pupil was $93.9S, against the
present cost of $76.Si. This re-
ductiou has been u saving to the
county Of approximately 100000.
His yearly institutes have been
the most popular of any ever held IN
the county, and he has brought some
Of the greatest leaders and most
eminent educators of the United
States before his teachers at insti-
tutc assemblies. The expense of
these Institutes is not borne by the
TAXPAYER, as is often believed, but is
paid from fund created by certifl-
cate fees. etc, paid by the teachers.
With these. years of experience
and service behind him, and the i'm
provemcnt he has made in the
schools of the county during his
term of office, Horace C.. Coc offers
indisputable proof of his ability to
fulfill the duties of county superln-
tcndcnt, and Il splendid argument
for his reelection to that office.

one soft-spokeu and sentimental, but
Albright's personality was extremely
dynamic and iorcetul. IN his youth
his temper was as peppery as his red
hair. 4 story tod of his early dayy
with .ne Company is characteristics
A stock clerk, later to be closely as
sociated with him, but then meeting
him for the first time, started to ask
whether he should fill an order for
wire with red core, which was the
best grade; white core, which was
most commonly used, or blue core, the
poorest grade. He got no farther
than white core, when Albright
banged his fist on his desk.
III you send anything but red core,
he roared. "I'll skin you alive"
All his life he was intolerant OF
the use of anything but the best ma
terials.
His Work Abroad
In recent years Mr.. Albright spent
considerable time in factory planning
abroad. The great telephone factories
in Paris, London, Berlin, Vienna,
Rome and Milan all bear evidence of
his influence, while even in far Toxic
he planned the modern plant erected
after the former plant had been de-
stroyed by the earthquake.
Albright was many-sided man.
Although primarily an engineer and .
builder, he had an artistic tempesa-
ment and was an omnivorous reader.
He was a good draughtsman and had
a thorough knowledge of architecture.
In this connection he possessed ons
almost uncanny iaculty-an eye with
the accuracy of a plumb line. He
could glanc, at a pipe and tell infal-
libby whether it was exactly horizontal
or vertical.
In business he was a hard man
! toward slackerS He was intolerane
of alibis, but he once remarked that
he always had increased respect for q
man who frankly confessed that 0
had made a mistake. He was a drivsa
but he drove no one as hard as him
self. And evan those who called hHu
hard man were forced to agree a
one thing-that lie was always q faA
man.

The Judge has always contributed

he had the VISION to avoid the mis-
take made by SO many other comPa-
mes, namely, reducing the rate when
IT was ioMd that the worknen were
able TO earn more than had been ex-
pected This, he SAID, discouraged
the employees, took away incentive and
caused them TO lose faith in the corl-
pany. AS result OF his counsel, the
Western Electric has maintained a
rigid policy Of never lowering piece
rate, as long as the work covered by
the rate is performed in the manner
planned when the rate was set
One of the best stories ever told
of him and which he used to tell on
himself was in connection with the
piece-work system A man who for
merly had charge of setting the piece
rates failed to satisfy Mr.. Albright,
who felt that the scientific methods OF
an engineer should be applied Finally

Sought Workers Safety
He was as intensely interested II
the welfare OF the worker as he was
in buildings and industrial organiza-
ton and methods. He was one OF
the first to emphasize safety in work
ing conditions and to see that ma.
chinery was adequately equipped with
safety devices. He believed that in
dustry was obligated to provide proper
facilities for the treatment of in.
juries, and was largely responsible fol
the development of the Hawthorne
hospital, considered one OF the fines
equipped industrial hospitals in th'
world.
The Western Electric Company wa
pioneer in the matter of pensionine
employees. He was one of the frs
advocates of pensions, as he was alsc
of shorter working hours, vacations
for hourly rated workers and the de.
velopment of social activities with tn,
company's financial support. He be
lieved, too, that industry should hav'
pleasant environment, and it = he
cause of this that the buildings of th'
Hawthorne plant today are separated
by green lawns and shrubbery.

BEWARE THE
COUGH OR COLD
THAT HANGS ON

Persistent coughs and colds lead to seri-
Gus trouble. You can stop them now with
Creomulsion, an emllsi6ed creosote that
is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is new
medical discovery with two-fold action; it
soothes and heals the Observation-Disclosures
and inhibits germ growth.
Of all known drugs, creosote is recog-
nized by high medical authorities as one
of the greatest healing agencies for persis-
tent coughs and colds and other forms of
throat troubles. Creomulsion contains, in
addition to creosote, other healing ele-
ments which soothe and heal the infected
membranes and stop the irritation and
inflammation, while the ,creosote goes on
to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood,
attacks the seat Of the trouble and checks
the growth of the germs.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac-
tory in the treatment Of persistent
coughse and colds, bronchial asthma,
bronchitis and other forms Of respira-
tory diseases, and is excellent for build
ing up the system after colds or fila.
Money refunded if any cough or cold is
not relieved after taking according to
directions. Ask Jour druggist. Creo.
