Lack of prop- trained teachers, relatively large. illiteracy in the population, child labor, and limited high school opportunity were stressed as handi- caps of country life, Of the 300,000 rural and village teachers in the United States, only 150,000 have completed a high school course, it was brought out by Prof. Mabel Carney of Teachers College. Only 10 percent have finished the eighth grade, and 20 percent the sixth grade. “The number of one-room rural school buildings in the United States is 189,227,” Prof. Carney de- clared. “The number of children in one-teacher rural schools is 4,000,000, or about 20 percent of the nation’s total school enrollment. Dr. Ernest Burnham of the Kala- mazoo, Mich., Normal School said that there was a lack of apprecia- tion of teachers by farmers. The average annual salary of rural teachers was only $72! INVESTIGATE THE CAUSES OF UNEMPLOYMENT Geneva, Aug. 23—The unemploy- ment suffered throughout the world from 1920 to 1923 is closely connect- ed with the, periogical crises which have afflicted the working classes and humanity as a whole for a century, Naturally | #tcording to a report issued by the international labor office, which New| gives the results of an international inquiry into the subject.

The report adds that in many coun- tries the period of most intense un- employment was accompanied by @ greater volume of exporis than at some other date, Artist Will Travel By Wagon Wash., Aug. 28.—Sight- seeing in a covered wagon, with “Chic ago in two years” as the first goal, is the plan of Louis Dana Johnson, a local artist, who has left here with his family on a journey of five or six years. In a trim gray prairie schooner, Betty Lou, aged 2, plays under the shelter of the canvas. Mr, ind Mrs. Johnson and Barbara, aged 11, hike along the highways. Mr, Johnson ex- pects to “knock off a year” in Chi- cago to study art. He then will con- tinue to “hit the trail” until he and his family tire of the novelty. The schooner, which he constructed, is fitted with everything necessary for a home and a school. NEW SEARCH FOR GOLD UNDER WAY IN MONTANA Mont., Helena, Aug. 23.—Quartz | prospectors are roaming the Mon- | tana hills, gulches and abandoned mining camps this summer in such numbers as to arouse speculation among the early settlers as to wheth- er the cry of “gold” again may lure hundreds into the areas where few men have ventured since the early sixties, Free milling ore veins have long since been exploited, and in most cases abandoned by the individual prospector, to be taken’ over by the larger companies or operated on a small scale by miners. Gold laden sands in the creek beds where old placer camps were located have been panned and repanned, yielding mil- lions in the early sixties until bed rock strata turned the fortune seek- ers to other fields. Forced to dis- continue the placer mining on a large seale, the pioneer prospectors are now enlisting younger blood in the search for quartz, hoping to discover veins of sufficient size to warrant construction of stamp mills and re- duction works. Reports from the early-day camps indicate renewed activity at Virginia City and Alder Gylch, one of the viehest of early-day sites, while from Confederate Gulch, 30 miles east of here, come stories of occasional nug- : SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, 1924 TRIBUNE WANT ADS BRING RESULTS A Score of Features to Explain These Results Every one who has familiarized himself with the new Chrysler Six and its extraordinary perform- ance is convinced that this car turns the-leaf of the automobile calendar many years forward. Among Chrysler Six features which contribute to its long life and operating economy, is the centrifugal air cleaner which aoe ike air taken in by the carburetor. This cleaner effectu- ly protects the cylinders and pistons from the entrance of fine, gritty dust. Of equal importance is the Chrysler oil filter, which thoroughly cleans all the oil in the crankcase every 25 miles, and contributes much to smoothness, lom from carbon, and longer life of rotating and moving parts. The engine design embodies a new type of combustion chamber that burns all the gas. Alsoa new way of distributing the gas equally to all cylinders.
