 "The high school graduate goes to work at IS, four years later. and passes the maximum of the elemen- tary trained man in 10 years.
 He rises steadily to his own maximum of $2.S00 at 50 and then falls off to about his 40-year average His earnings from Is to 60 total about $sS.00o, just s24.oQ0 more than that earned by the elementary trained boy.

by a brother shortly after l a. m.
Sunday on the banks of resac1

only few minutes when his brother
found his body.
Officers making the investiga-
ton found place in the center of
the road only short distance from
where the body was found where
they believe the murder took place.
An old grudge was probably the
cause of the murder, they said.
Justice of the Peace Watson at

mans brother Immediately after he
had found the body and an inquest
was held within an hour after the
murder. The verdict wa sthat Gut

ployed by Joe Ballinger, contractor
