TEACHERS FIND HANDICAP, VIEW Senator Draper Declares Ne,w Statute Causes Much Confusion. Passage of the teacher tenure bill by the Indiana Legislature Is causing considerable confusion in the matter of teacher contracts, according to Senator Luther Draper (Rep.), Spiceland, who returned to Indianapolis today to be present at the Dearth trial and attend a meeting of the State budget committee. “In our district alone there are perhaps forty teachers whose contracts remain unsigned by the trustees, due to the enactment of the law,” Draper declared. Trustees Cautious Under provisions of the measure no teacher may be discharged “without hearing and just cause,” after serving a five-year probationary period. According to the Senator there are many teachers who have served four years and are beloved by their community, but the trustees are fearful about renewing their contracts because of the teacher tenure law. They are getting old and the trustees are fearful about “having them saddled on the school,” he declared. Proves Handicap. “The bill was backed by the teachers during the session, but in many instances it is proving to be a handicap, rather than a help to them,” the Senator stated. Superintendent of Public Intsruction Charles F. Miller has had many queries concerning the law and on Monday asked Attorney General Arthur L. Gillionm for an interpreation of it.

Better Mornings via Breakfasts That "Stand By” You Quaker Oats Urged Widely by Authorities
FOREMOST educators, editors as well as leading business institutions like General Electric Company, now are widely urging breakfasts that “stand by” as an important aid to success. That’s because it is now known that over 70% of the day’s important work, in offices, stores, etc., falls into the four morning hours —the hours from 8:30 to 12:30. In most American schools, including Princeton, Yale, most State Universities and some 2,000 grade schools throughout the country, 80% of the important classes are held before luncheon. Thus, largely on expert advice, millions now start days with Quaker Oats food that “stands by” one through the morning. Excellently balanced in protein, carbohydrates, minerals and the important Vitamine B, this delicious food is ideal for banishing listless mornings. Today get Quick Quaker that cooks in to 5 minutes or regular Quaker Oats at grocer’s. Quick Quaker
