An Ob'iect Lesson
For Your Boy
Every father wants bis boy and
girl to learn the lesson of ha
bitual saving.
Do you know, fathers, that one
of the beet ways to teach jour
children to save regularly is to
have a savings account your
selves? Let that boy of bring your savings
deposit to the bank as "regular
as clockwork" and he will get
the habit himself he can't
help it.
Incidentally, a little nest egg will
be good for father, too.

ANSWERS MR.T0U VELLE
School Supervisor Henry Takes Ex
ception to Statements of the
County Judge.
The Tidings is in receipt of a com
munication from I). C. Henry, one of
the Jackson county school supervis
ors, in which he states that the Med
ford Mail Tribune, while printing
Superintendent Wells' reply to
Judge Tou Velle in its daily edition,
only published the Tou Velle attack
in the weekly Mail Tribune, aud ask
ing the Tidings to give place to an
answer from Mr. Henry which ap
peared in the Gold Hill News. As
heretofore stated, the Tidings does
not wish to take sides in the fight,
but wishes that all sides may be
given full opportunity to reach the
people. The following is Mr. Henry's
communication:
To the Taxpayer:
Although it is not likely that the
article in the Medford Mail Tribune
of January 14, by County Judge F.
L. Tou Voile, will make the impres
sion it might have done some years
ago, yet any article coming from a
county Judge could not but be given j
some attention in tne public mind.
Whether the misstatements which
appear in this article are made pur
posely or from lack of information,
that a county judge should make
them at all does not augur well for
unbiased judgment on public ques
tions for the next four years.
The first misleading statement ap
pears in the headline, "Enforced
Minimum Instead of Maximum." It
is a fact which the judge should
know that the schools of Jackson
county now get the minimum in
every item of which he makes com
plaint. The law provides at least
$8 per capita from the county for all
children of schooi age, and in ac
cordance with this provision the
county court levied 1.6 mills, which
is the very least the law permits.
The article further states: "The
people of Jackson county are paying
more for school than they are for
state and county or municipal gov
ernment." The coiinty levies in each
case are 1.9 mills, with an additional
1.1 mill state levy, so it would ap
pear that this is also a misstatement,
and we wonder if the judge took
into consideration when he made his!
cry or excessive expense ana
"graft" that for the year 1911-1912,
231 teachers were employed, while
there were not more than 35 or 40
county officials. If this is the
Judge's Veal attitude toward the peo
ple's spending money for the support
of their schools, we should not need
to be surprised i he should come
out some day with a very startliug
article condemning some of his con
stituents for spending more of their
money for the support of their fami
lies than they pay for the support
of the county and state governments.
Certainly the public schools are sec
ond to nothing but the providing
shelter and food fcr one's family.
Again the article says: "We have
a superintendent ?t $1,800 a year."
It can as truthfully be said that the
county judge receives $1,800 a year,
but we have not seen where he has
said his salary is "excessive."
Then it also says: "We have two
supervisors at $120 per month, be
sides their expenses." This is a mis
statement. The supervisors are al
lowed only their postage, stationery,
telephoning, etc., but not traveling
expenses. The law provides that
their salaries shall not be less than
$100 per month and expenses, and
the county educational board fixed
the salaries of the supervisors at
this minimum, adding $20 per month
for traveling expenses, and the su
pervisors have traveled mostly on
bicycles or on foot in order to keep
their traveling expenses wi'.hln the
$;o.
The article again says: "We Lave
the maximum number of supervis
ors." Again a misstatement, for this
county has enough districts to enti
tle it to three, very nearly four, su
pervisors, but only two are appoint
ed by the educational board.
The supervisory law was passed
entirely in the interest of the rural
schools on the grounds that the boy
or girl in the country is entitled to
just as good school advantages as
those in the city. Though Medfoid
accepts only experienced or specially
trained teachers, and thee have the
responsibility of not more than one
grade, Medford alone spends more
for the supervision of her 45 teach
ers than is spent for the rural
schools of the entire county.
It would be in accord with the
judge's logic if lie had mentioned
that there is a I03.1 number of pupils
In the country schools, hence they
need less supervision.
The number of pupils in the rural
schools 1b actually less at present
than it waB a number of years ago,
and largely because the city and
town schools hav improved more
rapidly and the people who could
afford to do so and, In many cases,
those who could not, have moved to

the towns so that their children

The supervisory law has been en
dorsed by the State Grange, State
Teachers' Association, and by every
body of school officers In the state
that has taken a vote on the ques
tion, but iu the face of these existing
conditions our county judge, it
seems, would ask the people to sup
