BIGGER REVENUES FOR SCHOOLS SEEN 5Y SUPT. H1NES

County Superintendent Williams, on his return from Cleveland, is expected .to prepare a detailed statement of county school needs, for submission to L. N. Hines, state superintendent of public instruction. Assurance that the state tax board will approve increased expenditures for school purposes, including salary increases for teachers, has been given by Mr. Hines in a letter to county superintendents throughout the state. The suggested wage scale for teachers, prepared some time ago by Mr. Hines, has been approved by members of the tax board, the letter says. Mr. Hines urges school officials to prepare full statements as to their needs. Conditions Brought. The state superintendent was spurred to prepare a clear statement as to conditions affecting schools by receipt of many letters from various county and township officials, asking about the attitude of the tax board on school levies. Superintendent Hines statement on school levies is as follows: "I have been authorized to issue the following statement as representing the atitude of the board toward school tax rates and school revenues for the ensuing year: " 'The state tax board will endeavor to meet the school situation for the next vear in the light of conditions existing at that time. That will mean, of course, increased revenues for the schools." "

ITALY KNOWS NOT PEACE THOUGH WAR IS ENDED

As a Woman Thinketh BY HELEN ROWLAND

(Copyright. 1920. by The Wheeler Svndieavt. Trio.) THE MAN OF IT Of course, woman has always been the humau paradox The baffling, incomprehensible, inscrutable r i d d 1 e of the species! And yet here are Just a few things that eveiy woman would like to know about a man! Can anybody tellWhy he always leaves a tea-cup. a vase, a priceless piece of bri-a-brac, and even his favorite meerschaums on the exact edge of a table? Why ho will spend three-quarters of a perfect day looking for something that he has secreted "for safe keeping" and the other quarter trying to prove that he didn't put it there? Why it annoys him to be called a "saint," bores him to be called a "good man." but delights and flatters him to bp called a "devil?" Why he can remember the exact date on which he caught a certain sixpound bass, and the precise minute, day, hour and year, on which he made the last hole with a certain marvelous stroke yet cannot for the life of him carry the date of his wedding anniversary in his head for twelve whole months? Why he will run away from a woman he loves, for fear of becoming entangled and run after a woman he doesn't love, until she trips him up and marries him? Why he would rather drop his cigar ashes on the prayer rug, in the baby's milk, behind the piano, on the sensitive-plant, in his coffee cup or anywhere on earth than into the ash-tray at his elbow. Why he will work like a demon for six months in order to pay off a debt, and then stick the check in his pocket and forget to mail it for a whole week ? Why he will forgive a woman for making a fool of herself over any man en earth except himself? Why he considers that before marriage a woman's love must be cultivated and cherished like an orchid but that after marriage it will flour

ish like an air-plant on her own imagination? Why he will nonchalantly pass over (int nice girl after another, who might make him perfectly happy and marry the first one who demonstrates the power to make him suffer? Why he will cheerfully pay the price of gasoline yet wail to heaven that his wife is ruining him when she throws out one of his frayed cravats or the remains of his favorite shoes? Why he will marry a girl for her "adorable little hand"" and expect her to use them for peeling potatoes? Or for her splendid mind, and expect her to concentrate it on a bread-pudding? Or for her brilliant conversation, and exr.eot her to use it all up before he coms home evenings. Why he will slave for a woman, suffei for her. die for her do anything on earth for her. except come home in time for dinner, go to bed at a reasonable hour, and bo pleasant at breakfast when that's all in the world she needs in order to make her perfectly happy? Why he will go to the ends of the earth to prove his love for a woman and yet bite his tongue out before he will tell her how much he loves her? Why but. oh well! That's just the man of it!

names, notably Thelka. St. Thelka was said to have been a disciple of St. Taul and to have been exposed to lions at Antioch. Instead of tearing her to pieces, they crouched at her feet, but nevertheless she was considered the first virgin martyr, and no higher praise is possible for a woman than to compare her to St. Tliekla. From Thekla came the French Tecla

and then, through the Eastern Church,;

Theodroa, signifying "divine gift", and, much later, the incorrect Dorothea. There have been two St. Theodoras, one a virgin martyr and the other a Greek Empress. Massinger composed a drama dealing with the story of St. Dorothea, the Cappadocian maiden who sent the roses of paradise by angelic hands as testimony of the joys of heaven. It if needless to go into the growth of Dorothea, followed by Dorothy, Dolly, Dora and Dorinda. Her contractions, elaborations and diminuitives are

legion, but unfortunately history does not record what first enterprising mother named her baby Doris, though the name is almost as popular as Dorothy in England and America. Even Germany uses it. France alone finds it too harsh for her tongue and prefers the softer Dorette and Doralice. The talismanie stone assigned to Doris is the agate, which gives her courage, guards her from danger and is also said to be a cure for insanity if worn as a pendant around the throat. Friday is Doris' lucky day and 5 her lucky number.

Worry, fear, fretting, malice, jealousy, criticism or gossip and unbridled passion were named by the speaker as the "great destroyers of health," while he named love, faith, hope, cheerfullness, kindness and grace of God, as the "great constructors of health." "There are many people today who

! are being murdered by the slander

and cruelty of their fellows. Your judgement to others reflects the kind of person you are yourself. Criticism is a terrible thing in America. People are being killed by it. You see It in the churches, in society, among ministers, lawyers and especially in the medical world. And people are going down under it every day. Iet us be careful of our tongues, for if we are we shall have better bodies and better and healthier lives," he said. Wednesday at 3 p. m. Dr. House will speak on "The rower of Affirmation," and Wednesday night on. "The Psychology of Prayer." The lectures are being given in the lteid Memorial church.

Those people who like to gaze upon a dainty, neatly clad silken ankla have been deprived of that pleasure this winter because of the new and universally popular fad for goloshes. Jack Frost has also been dealt a blow since all the fair maids have taken to wearing exact duplicates of grandfather's overshoes, popular some fifty years ago. The most fashionable method of wearing the ugly but practical things is to leave the clasps open so they flap and clank with a smart, careless ait. -
