STATE SHORT OF HIGH SCHOOL TEACHINGFORCE State Superintendent Believes * Numbers Will Increase in Another Year. Indiana is short of high school teachers and has been since the close of the World War, Ben Burris, State superintendent of public instruction, said today. * During the World War it was necessary to hire teachers and provide them with certificates to teach in the high schools regardless of whether they could qualify un£er the State laws, Mr. Burris said. “Rather than close any of the high schools we were forced t employ teachers who could pass the tests.” Mr. Burris said. “However, the teachers who passed the mental and oral examination to which they were subjected did not have the proper two-year college training which is* required under the State law*. REQUIREMKNTS TO BE MET NEXT YEAR. “In another year, however. I think that we will have a sufflcent number of high school teachers that will meet with all of the requirements of the State law. This will be brought about by the present economicarconditions. Low wages In the factories and other fields of business are driving students of the colleges to the teaching profession and will relieve the shortage in short time,” he said. “Many of the teachers who have been granted the temporary license under this emergency have attend the summer State normal schools and by the time those who have qualified are ready to teach there will be a number of these ready to go into the teaching profession with the training required by law. Those, however, who do not meet with these qualifications will probably be looking for a knew place. * “During the present school term we have plenty of grade school teachers. Many of those who left the school to work in factories during the war have returned and we now have plenty of teachers to fill the places of those who still are seeking employment elsewhere.” VOCATIONAL PROGRAM Ct'T BY LACK OF FINDS. Enough money is now on hand to carry out the present school program, Mr. Burris said, but the work of the vocational department of the State is curtailing its program. Several years ago, when the vocational department had a surplus <*f money on hand, the Legislature cut the levy from one and one-half cent on each SIOO worth of taxable property to onefourth of one cent on each SIOO worth of property until the surplus money was used. Last year the surplus was depleted and it became necessary for the Legislature to raise the levy. The Legislature raised the levy to from one-fourth of a cent to one-half of a cent on each SIOO worth of taxable property. This, it was said, will not provide a large enough fund to carry out the program made the first of the year and therefore the program has been curtailed. WILL SING DUET AT ELKS’ CONCERT Old Favorite to Be Feature of Annual Program. “Carry Me Back to Old Virginia,” a duet by Mrs. Don Tuills and Floyd Chafee Bvrlll be one of the featnre numbers in W an all-star program to be given at the Elba ‘Old Time Melodies’ concert at the Cadle Tabernacle Monday, Dec. 10. This concert is an annual affair given under the auspices of the Elks for the benefit of their Christmas fund for poor children. According to John B. Orman, chairman of the concert committee, the entertainment this year will far surpass that of previous years although the admission this year Is still a dollar. The sale of tickets is going nicely acording to reports received by the committee.
We Believe in Indianapolis MILLINERY Three manufacturing millinery establishments, employing more than 1,000 work people—three millinery jobbers, two branch houses and one hundred and fifty-three retail establishments are engaged in the millinery business in Indianapolis. The city has the ’eputation of being one of the foremost of highgrade millinery in the Central West, and In-dianapolis-made headgear finds a ready sale in all of the surrounding states. The three manufacturing wholesale millinery establishments annually produce enough hats to supply every woman in the city with three or four hats each year, and many more are made to order in the trimming and finishing rooms of those manufacturing retailers who maintain their own workrooms. The hats produced by the three large manufacturing milliners alone have an annual retail value of approximately $5,C00,000.

Why not get your holiday shopping out of the way before the last rusn crowds begin. Shop today, shop now.
FIRE MARSHAL WARNS AGAINST CARELESSNESS Urges Public to Exercise Caution in Christmas Preparations. Carelessness is the greatest fault of the American people, Newman T. Miller, State fire marshal, said today. Losses from fires in Indiana exceeded the State tax returns last year by approximately $308,000, Mr. Miller said. Persons decorating stores and homes for the Christmas holidays are warned by Mr. Miller to be careful that their decorations are not placed too close to open fires and places where they are liable to become Ignited. “In the arrangement of Christmas decorations all should be more careful,” he said. “Many lives may be saved and property preserved if the people who decorate the home or stores are more careful with their preparations." “The fire losses of the United States during the last year have been almost $500,000,000 in excess of the taxes collected by the Government. This was not all lost during the Christmas holidays, but it is necessary to exercise greater care during the holidays than ever before. "When a building burns or the goods of a merchant’s store are damaged, the public pays for it in the long'run. Regardless of whether you carry Insurance the cost of the fire Is passed on to the consumer.” Premier Briand Will Visit Lloyd George PARIS, Dec. 14.—Premier Briand will go to London on Sunday for a conference with Premier Lloyd George on the German Indemnity situation, it was announced today. The Premier is pledged, it was said, to insist on strict enforcement of the London ultimatum and the payment of the indemnity installment due in January and February. He is due back in Paris Wednesday.
