OPERATION OF PENSION LAWS FOR TEACHERS Provisions Which Caused Confusion Now Made Clear. CHIEF FACTS IN STATUTE Considerable confusion has been caused among teachers in Indiana as a result of the change lu the teachers’ pension laws. In order that instructors may have exact information concerning the operation of the law Estes Duncan, secretary of the teachers’ pension board, has prepared the following summary: 1. The following classifications and arrangement of facts will no doubt be of interest to teachers of our public schools. 1. Classes of teachers: 1. Beginning teachers must become members of the system. (a) Employing officials report beginning teachers to the retirement fund board before Oct. 1. 1921. (b) Secretary malls blanks to teachers to be filled with the data necessary for the office. (c) Employing officials deduct from your salary one-tbird of your premium at the end of the second month of the ■''school year, one-third at the end of the fourth month, ar.d one-third at the end of the sixth month of the school year. (d> After the first and before the fifteenth day of January and June of each year the employing official pays these deductions over to the board of trustees of the Indiana State teachers’ retirement fund.
2. All teachers having belonged to local units and not having withdrawn automatically become members. (a) Will be reported by employing officials as having belonged to a former system. (b) Deduction by employing officials of premiums which have changed from under the old law to under the new. The age you were at time of beginning service fixes the premium you shall pay for all subsequent service. (c) Employing officials report deductions to the board of trustees of executive secretary, who acts for the board. (and) These teachers do not have additional arrearages to pay over and above their arrearages under the old law. But the board will insist that these old arrearages be paid at the very earliest convenience of the teacher, for the reason that it is extremely difficult to make a payment yield a profit in the hands of the debtor. Further, in the event of retirement the annuity otherwise available will be reduced in the proportion which the amount unpaid bears to the then present value of sueh annuity. (e) In the event of withdrawal or retirement before forty years of service
they do not receive as good settlement as do the teachers who have paid up under the law as amended. \ 3. Teachers with prior service and who have never belonged to an annuity system. fa> Reported by employing officials as electing or rejecting the opportunity to become members this year. But have until Sept. 1. 1922, to make final decision. (b) If this class of teachers elects to become members they are so reported by employing officials. (e) Blanks are sent ont to them to be filled by the secretary that will show their prior service and such other data as the board has decided will be of use in the office of the executive secretary. (and) How the pay of a-rearages will be accepted from this class for their claim for prior service. (1) All cash. (2) If S3OO or less must be cash. (3) In the event that the total arrearages are more thar S3OO the board will aeeept 331-3 per rent of total amount each successive year until paid. But in no event will a payment be received for less than S2OO save the last one which might be less. (e) Employing official deducts the premium this year Just as he does with other classes of teachers and employing official settles with the board of trustees Jnst as he does with other classes of teachers All classes cf teachers may receive credit for prior service and out State service. After ten years' service any teacher member may withdraw and re reive ail money paid in as After ten years of service death settlements include all money plus 4 per cent compound Interest. After twenty-five years of service any teacher may retire upon an annuity. This annuity Is governed by the teach er's age at beginning service, amount of arrearages paid, length of service, age at ‘ retirement, etc. Teachers coming from other States are nw to the service in ' this State, hence must unite with this system as beginning teachers.

NEW YORK. Sept. 15.—“ Why are upward of ICO.GK) pupils without regular seats in the public schools of New York City?” appears to be forming into a campaign cry against the Hylun administration—the campaign that actually began with the primaries that selected party nominees for city, borough, county and judiciary offices. The number of children on part time Is disputed by Mayor Hyian, who makes an estimate of only 47,000 children out of luck as to seats they can call their own. The Hyian administration points to the opening of twelve new school buildings and additions. Altogether In New York there ar e<547 public schools where labor 23,000 teachers whose salaries annually amount to more than $34,000,0U0. The garment center capitol. the largest combined manufacturing and exhibition building group ever created in this country has at last been completed iu Seventh Avenue, north of the Pennsylvania Station at a cost of more than *20,000,005. The cluster of buildings covers virtually two blocks on the west side of the avenue from Thirty-Sixth to Thirty-Eighth streets, and will bouse sixty odd different manufacturing concerns employing about 25,1 M) operatives. Asa construction proposition the group is a building marvel, 13,000 tons of steel and 13,000.000 brick being used by the builders. In addition to the factories, the buildings contain a club occupying two floors, a gymnasium, an Italian roof garde<n. a completely equipped hospital and a fine restaurant. It is expeeted that centering of a large portion of the garment industry also will materially reduce the cost or

The Methodists also are expanding in New York —the Metropolitan Methodist temple in Seventh avenue, near Fourteenth street, is to be enlarged into a series of buildings and made a center of Methodism. A ten story community house has been errected at a cost of $200,000 facing Thirteenth street. The scheme is to rent the lower floors to stores, but on the upper floors operate a restaurant, to serve workers of the neighborhood with a gymnasium, swimming pool, cluhrooms, library an dother recreation quarters. On the Fourteentn street side of the cluster of buildings will be installed a girls' dormitory. George H. Van Fleet, editor of the Marlon Star, whom wo talked with In his room at the lUtz-Carlton Hotel when ITesident Harding was tu the city recently, wanted all the questions to do put to the President's secretary, George Christian. But it was Mr. Van Fleet we wanted to talk with, although he was engaged in the rush Job of dressing for dinner. The whole thing came about through a dispute as to the circulation of the Marlon Star, what it was this time last year, as cgalDSt now. One of tiie disputants held that the circulation must have reached enormous proportions due to the occupancy of the White House by its former editor. That man is wrong, we may state authoritatively. The circulation of the Marlon Star t)day is virtually the same as It was before Mr. Harding was elected President, a little more than 11,060, with a mailing list that has increased only slightly iu the last twelve months.

Government Specifications for Gasoline Do Not Mention Gravity
When the Government buys gasoline for Army or Navy use, it does not consider gravity. It specifies various temperatures at which definite amounts of the gasoline shall vaporize; in other words, it fixes the low and- high boiling points, and specifies that the intermediate boiling point fractions must be so arranged as to boil off at the correct temperature to insure a maximum of service.
RED CROWN
—The High-Grade Gasoline Has a Perfect Chain of Boiling Point Fractions
Red Crown more than meets Government specifications. Its initial is about 40 degrees F. lower, meaning easier starring than the Government requires. Red Crown has the correct range of boiling point fractions to insure quick getaway, smooth acceleration, and the correct range for tremendous power and speed. Red Crown is fast gas. Red Crown is the best gasoline you can buy. It will give you better service, more power, more speed, and greater mileage per gallon. It is a waste of money to pay more than the price of Red Crown. 1 18.60 a GALLON At the Following Standard Oil Service Stations: 30th and Northwestern Ave. 30th and Meridian Sts.
