SCHOOL BOARD CAN NOT PAY TRAINING COST Lesh Says It Is Illegal for Body to Stand Expense of Normal. Normal training for teachers, "lnvolvJng the expenditure of money by the board of school commissioners, has been declared unlawful In an opinion handed down by Attorney General IV. S. Leah. The practice has been In effect here many years, teachers recently being afforded highly specialised training at public schools No. 10, 1255 Ashland avenue, and No. 2, Delaware and Walnut streets. Expenses of the teacher training courses last year amounted to $40,000, and was slightly In excess of the amounts paid by the school commissioners In previous years. Attorney General Lesh’s opinion does not state whether It ■will.become necessary for the city to repay the amounts which he says have been illegally spent. The opinion governing the local case Is In line with that handed down In a similar situation at Ft. Wayne. The opinion was ashed by Jesse Eschbach, chief examiner of the State board of accounts. E. XT. Graff, superintendent of schools, Is authority for the statement that about half of the teachers in the city schools ct present have received training at the normal school. Ellsworth Lowry, district superintendent, has been in charge of the normal school for three years, but lost his place as disfclet superintend mt In the recent shake-up by th 6 echool board. It was said at the time Lowry would be retained in connection With the normal training work. Authorities at Butler College have been behind a movement to have the teacher training courses included in the activities of the'college. They claim a large saving would result to the city and the opinion of the attorney general Is regarded as having a tendency to further this purpose. Candidate Is Low Margin Spending SALEM, Ore., June 14.—0f all the candidate for office at the recent Oregon primaries, George A. Lorejoy, who sought the Democratic Indorsement for Representative, in the State Legislature from Multnomah County, has the record for the lowest expenditure. Lovejoy reported to Secretary of State Sam Koier the munificent slush fund of 1 cent. The candidate reported be spent the £enny for a postal card with which he applied for a nominatloh blank.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., June 14. Radio for train dispatching, as well as entertainment of passengers, has gained another notch toward Its adoption by the railroads. A test has Just boon completed by the Rt. Louis A San Francises railroad at this point, which officials say has gone farther than the recent experiments made > by engineers of other railroads In the East and West. A regenerative receiving set with four stages of amplification and a loud speaker was set up in the baggage car of Frisco train No.' 0 at Oklahoma City and whs "worked" while the train was on its way
Changed Prices on Suits —But No Change in Quality Changed From i Changed From $30—535—537.50 s4o—s4s— sso 0 Two groups of suits are changing from our cases to the backs'of friends. They know Schloss standards of quality are fixed, and they further know that these changed prices are not from high to low —but from low to lower. - There are fine foreign*fabrics tailored in both sport and conservative models by KUPPENHEIMER and other good makers—homespuns, herringbones and hairlines, in variations for longs, stouts, shorts and regulars. The changed prices are especially appealing, because there is no change in quality, and you benefit as much a$ $12.50 on some suits.

For the whole length of 100 miles, clear communication was maintained with station WKY Oklahoma City. This, in spite of a severe electrical storm around Mustang The signals and music almost drowned out the static encountered. The significance of this test, according to J. 11. Brennan, superintendent of telegraph of the Frisco lines, lies in the fact that radio communication on a railroad

According to Brennan, the Lackawanna and other roads which have been conducting similar experiments, have been unatue so far to cover as great a distance with their radio Installations. Further tests are being planned, with the view of using the train radio for sending and receiving dispatches, besides entertaining the passengers.

This is accumulated by the aerial until it has-* developed enough potential to overcome the resistance of a small air gap In the circuit. In most sets now there Is no longer a spark gap, but a variable condenser in the circuit. Examination of this will disclose the presence of minute spark discharges, which may occur at Intervals of two or three seconds. If the antenna

Snow storms will often produce the same phenomenon. These discharges produce the same effects in the head phones as heavy static. But this interference may be easily overcome. Connect a hl|fii resistance carbon rod—--100,000 ohms—directly from the antenna to the earth. This resistance will prevent the building up of high potentials in the antenna, but will not affect the much smaller ones built up by the signals.
