ArNSWORTH Sea Servce Had ts Trouble Over Medcal Coanders Surprsng Prevalence of Opnon That Tranng snt Needed for Mltary Men. By GEORGE CLNTON. Washngton. There s frcton n the war departent because of dfferences of opnon between the two rankng offcers of the ary, Major Generals Leonard Wood and Fred C. Ausworth. one the chef-of-stafl and the other adjutant general of tho servce.

The navy s now laughng at the ary, because the navy tself had a row of soewhat slar nature, although n the case of the sea servce there was a doctor on only one sde of t. The trouble n the navy departent was over the decson to allow a edcal offcer to take coand of a Bhlp. Of course be wont attept to navgate the shp, but he wll be captan supree n everythng.

Thnk Tranng Not Needed. No cvlan presdent, save Abraha Lncoln, perhaps, ever has thoroughly understood the necessty of tranng for ary en and navy-en. There s apparently an presson that cannot be erased fro the cvlan nd thnt the professon of ars s the only professon for whch no educaton s necessary. Naval offcers and ary offcers n Washngton today say that they constantly eet people who beleve that any an of average ntellgence, good voce and sufueled physcal strength can take coand of an ary or a fleet and by a sbrt of ntuton lead the nto battle as well as any general or adral of tho servce. Ths, of course, s puttng t to the lt of exaggeraton, but the an truth holds, and ary experence and navy experence show t, that the ordnary cvlan, whether he be presdent of the Unted States or presdent gla_s,ockaklpg-4actory. beleves that the ltary an B born, not ade, and that ltary educaton and experence, whle possbly helpful, are not aong the necessares.

Perhaps one of the ost startlng stateents ade by the speaker n dscusson of the laws was that the legslature of 1911 wheh gave to the school boards alost coplete taxng power, takng that prvelege away fro the people of the dstrct. Under the new laws whch went nto effect last August, the people of the dstrct can vote oney for very few purposes, chefly for the buyng of ste and the erecton of school bouses. The board leves the other taxes. The peopa have no rght to dctate how uch the board shall rase, bow uch they shall pay to teachers, what reparea are to be ade or fro who fuel s to be purchased. The board aloue has au* thorty n those atters and can contract wth teachers, boy furnshngs and equpent for the schools, akng repars of all knds of school property, purchase a heatng plant, drve a well, buld a woodshed and outhouses, pant the buldngs, grade the ground, ntact do all thngs to ake your school property an honor to your dstrct. The portance of the responsblty placed upon the school board was strongly ephased, statng that now, f school property s poorly cared for f teachers and pupls are forced to work wth nadequate equpent and unpleasant Burronndngs that the blae settles entrely upon the school offcers. Mss Benjan, as well as Mr. Lasher urged the to take advantage os ther power and fx up the school houtm A of ths county and ake the pleasant, cofortable and attractve for the boys and grls of ths connty. The new law, also states a few thngs the boar 1 cannot do. No eber on the board can do any work for the TllBtrct and" secure pay for tbe sae. f they do, t s a sdeeanor, punshable by fne or prsonent, or both, as aoy person, can ake a coplant. School offcers were urged not to run any rsks, but to lve up to the law even though t cost the dstrct ote oney. There are only three thngs for whch a school offcer ay draw oney. For attendng sshool eetngs, takng the school census, aad eatery, whch n dstrct* havng less than ffty pupls on tbe school census cannot exceed $25. and those havng between ffty and one hundred cannot exceed $50- for three offcers. As an order "pad to any offcer for the work or supples furnshed the dstrct would be an llegal for the return of the aount of the order to the dstrct. The people at the annual eetng cannot nullfy the laws byvotng to pay such orders to offcers. The free tuton law cae n for consderable attenton. Under ths law, the dstrct not antanng a legal hgh school ust pay tuton up to 920. a year foeach pupl, who desres to attend one of the three nearest hgh schools. A hgh school s defned as a graded dstrct antanng twelve grades of work and havng at least two teachers devotng ther entre teachng te to the nnth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades, Ten graded schools however, n graded dstrcts, havng a teacher gvng hs or her entre teachng te to the nnth and tenth grades ay receve tuton fro other dstrct and cannot pay tuton for ts pupls untl they have passed the tenth grade at hoe. n order for pupls to be qualfed for ths tuton, they ust ether pass the county eghth grade exanaton secure a stateent fro a superntendent of soe graded school that they have passed the eghth grade there or have had ther tuton pad under the free tuton law of A parent, guardan or person who stands n parental relaton ust ake a wrtten applcaton on or before the fonrth Monday n June n each year, that the chld desres tuton. Chldren ust be of school age and resdents of the datrot. Heretofore the coarse of study has bean adopted by dstrct boards* The present law, however, akes ft andatory for the Superntendent of Puble nstructon to outlne tbe coarse of study for all schools coaptthe cty schools and the teachers oat follow the outlne.

An aendent to the law gves the ruan offcer authorty over the out houses, u copellng boards to ake the decent and santary. The people at the annual eetng ay desgnate soe bank as a depostory for dutret funds and whea the bank fles a bond wth the dstrct, the treasurer ust depost all the dstrct funds there under the drecton of the board. n case the bank fals tbe treasurer and hs personal bondsen are released fro ther lablty. Dstrct treasurers ust depost the funds n any case n ther own naes as treasuer and whether the bank s naed as a depostory teachng and conductng school affars. Soe of the nforaton proved lttle or uot. All nterest pad to the treasurer short ot startlng to those present and as a ust be pad nto the general fund, otherwse the treasurer s lable to tne or result there was a lvely round of questons asked Mr. Lasher, who readly responded prhonent.
