two of the windows there was a bed with couple of screens about it. The day nurse pulled the nearer one back, and Nesta Riddell went past her and stood at the foot of the bed.
 THERE was a man in the bed, and
 | he was lying on his side with one arm thrown up across his face. She could see the line of his legs, the hump of his shoulder, and the crook of the arm. Her. heart began to beat very fast.
 "Is it your husband?"
 Nesta Riddell turned slowly round. The nurse was behind her, with hand on the screen.
 And then all at once the rosy girl who had opened the door was there, full of hurry and importance.
 "Oh, nurse-Dr. Sutherland wants you on the phone. There's been an accident"
 The day nurse was gone before the girl stopped speaking. Nesta Riddell put up her hand and closed the screens. They made sort of red twilight about the bed. She went past the foot and stood above the sleeping man. His head was not .bandaged. She could see rumpled brown hair, and bit of brown fore head, and bit of brown unshaven chin. Her heart went on beating very fast.
 She bent down and touched the arm that was hiding the mans face. and at once he said. quite clearly and distinctly.
 "Phe finest emeralds in the world"
 Nesta drew back her hand with a jerk. A look of terror passed over her face. To lie here in an open ward and talk about the eneralds! The mans voice lost it's distinctness and fell to a mutter, but she could hear what he was saying well enough:

SCHOOL TRUSTEES
Agree REDUCING
TEACHERS WAGES
High School Trustees Ask
Each District Lower
Salaries

Reduction in high school costs,
principally in salaries of teaching
stats, was discussed at length at
a recent meeting of high school
trustees in the court house, when
comforting with the board of coun-
ty commissioners, the superin-
tendent of schools and a budgetlng
committee. Thorough study of
school costs revealed that the
greatest economy could be affect
ed through reduction of teachers
salaries and it was therefore
recommended that trustees of the
respective districts fix the salary
of school superintendent or prin-
cipal at $500 per year, beginning
with the next school year; salaries
of other high school teachers at
$11OO per year if they are teach
ers being rehired, while $1,000 was
suggested as salary to those being
hired for the first time. A super
visor designated as and acting as
bows athletic coach is to be al
lowed 500 a year additional.
In recommending this uniform
scale Of wages for the teaching
staffs it was pointed out that the
salaries would be the maximum
amounts to be allowed out OF
county high school funds at the
time that budgets are approved.
It is then optional for trustees OF
any district to pay their teachers
higher salaries than the set scale,
but such additional amounts Will
have to come from monies derived
from tax levies on property with
in the district wherein the school
is located, and not out of the coun-
tv high school funds. The recon-
mended salary scale applies only
to high school teachers.

Stong promptly sentenced him to
two years at hard labor at the
state penitentiary at Deer Lodge.
The sentence was then suspended
and the defendant placed under
control of the state board of pris-
on commissioners, and ordered to
pay the clerk of court the amount
of the two checks he wrote. He is
also required to serve 60 DAYS in
the county Jail.

vorce to Karl E. George from Ger
trude George. Mrs. George was

NATIONAL
AFFAIRS
BY FRANK P. LITSCHERT

We have heard a great deal dur
ing the past few months about
balancing the budget, reducing
taxes and national and local ex-
penditures. So far as the local
units of government are concerned
the agitation for economy and
lower taxes have had some effect.
Fewer municipal bond issues r
being sold than for many months.
Expenses in many states and cit
les are being trimmed and this
will eventually result in lower
taxes if the people will only stay
on guard.

Then there are additional pro-
posals for the payment of the vet
erans' bonus which is due in 194o.
Mr.. Patman of Texas still wants
to pay for this by initiating the
currency. Other bills provide for
federal aid to states, counties and
municipalities for educational pur-
poses. In short, the number of
proposals for appropriating more
federal money to be raised either
by more taxes, by bond issues or
by initiation is too great as to
make one fairly dizzy in contem-
plation.

But how about the national gov
eminent? What are its prospects
along this line for the coming
months? Are we to have a bal
anced budget through reduction of
national expenditures, or are we
to have still higher taxes and more
economic pressure as a result?
Only the future can tell. Both po-
litical parties were On record for
economy and the slashing of ex-
%penditures. But enough proposals
have now been brought forward to
increase Uncle Sans expense a
dozen billion dollars if all of them
were to be enacted. And very lit
tie is being heard about reduction
of expenditures and fewer taxes at
Washington. The Republicans are
naturally saying little, as they are
going out of power in a few weeks.
Perhaps Mr.. Roosevelt will say
something to calm the troubled
waters within the next few weeks.
1t is earnestly to be hoped so. He
is said to favor a twenty-five per
cent cut in expenditures.
