Tho directors of School District
No. 1 have decided to go to the vot
ers and ask permission to Increase
the salaries of the teachers. It will
call for an addition to next year's
budget of 4500. This will mean so
little to the taxpayer and so much
to the teachers, that we doubt it
there will be n single vote against.
"We are certain here would be n
vote against It if the property own
ers were as familiar with the little
sacrifices, the -hardships, the self
denials of the brave little women
who are working so hard to teach
the children of this city as we are.

The pay of the teachers in District
No. 1, is close to the lowest In the
state, and this fact is a disgrace in
stead of a credit. It should be the
proud boast of this district that it
pays the highest salaries to its
teachers of any district in the state.
Snch a claim would be an asset, for
it -would bring to us the best teach
ers on the Coast and it would keep
them here. We have lost some of our
best teachers because they could go
elsewhere and get better salaries.
The minimum salary of any teach
e.- in this district-should be $1200 aj

months. This should, be increased
ten per cent a year until every teach
T was getting $1800 a year. The an
tiquated plan of paying ,for only nine
tconths In the year should be aban
doned, just as every antiquated me
thod in the schools has been thrown
out. The teachers should have the
vacation time for rest, study and Im
provement both mentally and phy
sically. They should have as an in
ducement to return to the district
the ten per cent increase in salary.

a strange, weird, almost grotesque
wail, and the little blossom lle.s brok

( And the speedy death of "Batt
ling" by the hand of the Chinaman
seemed .terribly inadequate.
Another thing which Mr. Griffith
has done is to keep the story a sim
ple tale of a few people. It ft told
exactly as it would be in a-boek or'
on the stage. There are scenes be
tween Mr. Barthelmess and Miss
Gish which last for several minutes
and nothing at all happens to dis
turb the tranquil beauty of them
not even a title.
The story Is so simple that It needs
no comment. It is short and ineffa
bly sad, but when it was over we
wanted to rush up to every one we
met and cry: "Oh, don't miss it4-
don't miss It!"
Mr. Griffith refused to appear un-'

theatre, and then he spoke only a
few words, thanking them, and al-i
sc the people who had contributed
to the success of the picture. He

Helpfulness of Criticism.
It Is natural to ieent criticism. We
dislike anything that shakes our self
complacency or compels us to think.
Here and there a man has learned the
real service of criticism nnd usually
he Is a man who has attained to more
than average success In life. We are
all more or less like the proverbial os
trich. We like to convince ourselves
thnt our fuults are really our virtues.
In that we arc doing good work In the
world when In truth we are lagging
fat behlnnd our uctual capacity nnd
