A bank account means more than so many
dollars put away out of your earnings. The
man who spends each week a little less

saved more than mere dollars and cents.
He has saved his peace of mind and his self

the Murray bathing beach, where
there was an abundance of cool wa

and there while the temperature was
way up. they enjoyed the limpid
sparkling water and were refreshed
bj- their dip. People came from far
anl near and were well repaid for
their trip, however long it was, for
it is worth a good deal to get an op
portunity to take a bath itiese hot

were refreshments in the shape of

aided much in the over heated, re

Child W anderers
in Labor Fields
Live Like Gypsies
Traveling Schools Started in Cali
fornia to Meet Unusual
Situation
San Francisco Addressing the
twenty-fifth annual conference of the
National Child Labor Committee held
in San Francisco, Dr. George B.
Mangold, professor of sociology at
the University of Southern Cali
fornia, deplored the increasing
prevalence of migratory child labor
in this country, and declared that
"gypsies" are being made out of
hundreds of these children.
Dr. Mangold explained the increase
in the number of young children who
travel from place to place engaging
in different kinds of work as due to
the cheap automobiles which put the
homes of thousands of people on
wheels or in auto camps, and also
the temptation for boys to travel,
expecting "lifts" from motorists.
The children roam from place to
place, picking fruit and vegetables,
and later assisting in the canning
and preserving industries. Instead
of learning habits of steadiness and
of industry, they are subjected to a
wide variety of contacts which is
bound to have a far-reaching effect.
He urged stricter child labor laws,
traveling schools for migratory chil
dren, and regulation of labor camps
where thev live.
Mrs. Liilian B. Hill, chief of the
bureau of attendance and migratory
schools, described the California
program for the education of the
migrant child. There are. about 40.
000 children in California who have
no permanent residence, but who
migrate from county to county dur
ing the entire year following the
different crops. Miss Hill stated, and
to meet their needs a special fund
tor the niilntcuHiice of iincratorv
sc-ooli vuo established by the Legislature.

Children Must Be Guarded From In
sidious Peril, Says Report to
N. E. A. Meeting.
Atlanta., Ga., July 2. Two gen
eral sessions and a series of depart
mental meetings Tuesday stressed the
purpose of the 67th convention of
the National Education association
education for a new world.
Heading the reports was that of
the propaganda committee, which
held that all schools should be se
curely safeguarded against propa
ganda. Children should be taught
"how to think" not "what to think,"
the report said.
Meanwhile, delegates also were
faced with the problem of choosing
between Miss Ruth Pyrtle of Lin
coln. Neb., and Miss Effie MacGregor
of Minneapolis, nominees for the
presidency of the association, not to
mention nominees for 11 vice presi
dencies, other officers and board
members from states. The elections
take place Wednesday.
Finds School Lacking.
A. C. Eldridge of Cleveland told
secondary school principals that more
personable teachers were needed. He
said students deserved instructors of
whom they could be proud.
L. S. Rugg, Alexandria. La., found
that the "undeniable right of every
child to develop to the limit of his
native ability seems to be lacking in
the average school.
Loy Elmer Morgan, editor of the
journal of the National Education as
sociation, addressing the national
congress of parents and teachers, an
allied organization, asserted schools
and airports would be the dominant
landmarks of the future.
Close on Thursday.
The flyer, he said, would stimu
late mental growth just as would the
parent-teacher alliances, one in a
material, and the other a spiritual
way.
The convention will close Thurs
day. The propaganda report said:
"The propagandist is knocking at
the school door. In some instances
he has already been admitted. There
is nothing to indicate he will over
look the schools in the future.
"The teacher's mind is open on
all subjects. The main purpose of
propaganda, therefore, is to teach
what to think, while the guiding
purpose of education is to teach how
to think.
"The welfare of children is the
primary function of a public school
and is the only legitimate basis for
acceptance or rejection of material
offered for school use. Constant
alertness is the price of freedom
from one-sided statements.
Independence Urged
"The school should guard against
casting the minds of children in cer
tain inflexible moulds modeled along
the lines of current practice.
"The privilege of outsiders to ad
dress school assemblies and classes
should be definitely controlled by edu
cational authorities.
"The difficulty of the propaganda
problem will be lessened when al'
schools are supplied with adequate
funds so that no school will be com
pelled to rely on gifts and donations
from the outside."
Dr. Edwin Mims of Vanderbilt
university, addressing the rural edu
cation department, pictured the south
as hesitating to climb aboard the
great American bandwagon of mod
ernism. Upholding southerners in avoiding
extremes, the speaker declared they
were holding hack for themselves
and the good of the nation.

Human Factor
Found Supreme
in All Business
Governor Tells North Carolina Bank
ers That Character Is Big
Thing That Counts.
Asheville, N. C. The first and
supreme problem in banking, as in
every other department of life, is
the human problem, O. Max Gardner,
Governor, told the North Carolina
Bankers' Association in annual ses
sion here, and the most successful
banker is the man who. with a large
and far-seeing unselfishness, best
serves his community and his fel
lowman. The importance of the human and
personal element enters in all busi
ness transactions. It is, Governor
Gardner declared, just about of su
preme importance. In the final analy-
! sis the banker does not extend the
loan because the security is good
or because the collateral is ample,
but because of the charcter of the
man seeking the loan.
"The normal basis of business, and
particularly of the banking business,
is faith in the character, integrity
and ability to make their promises
good of the individual men and wom
en who engage in business," he con
cluded. Discussing what he termed the
"puzzle of American prosperity," he
said it could at least be defined nega-
; tively.
"In the first place," he said, "gen
eral prosperity is possible only to the
extent that raw materials are pro
cessed and adequate to supply needs;
and, in the second place, this process
is. in its broadest sense, dependent
upon the elimination of waste.
One of the greatest of the forces
that make prosperity, re continued,
is adaptability. He recited the mar
velous changes natural science has
wrought in our methods of living.
"The influence of science upon hu
man life and activity is incalculable,"
he asserted, "and it is a significant
'fact that only those progressive com
panies which have kept abreast of
the times have prospered."
Competition, he said, has always
been and will continue to be, in
varying degree, the life of trade.
Moreover, individual initiative must
remain the corner stone of all in
dustrial progress. On the other hand,
he said, the immense advantage of
financial strength gained from merg
ers must be considered, and this
strength makes it possible for plant
changes to keep abreast of the times.
Scientific taxation and efficiency in
government were given as the one
other great factor in the Governor's
opinion which has a direct bearing
on prosperity. The total tax burden
has become so large, state and local,
he continued, that of necessity we
must give thought not only to our
capacity to pay the total amount
levied annually, but to the direct and
indirect economic consequences of
this drain on productive capital.
This is, however, Governor Gard
ner said, only one aspect of the sit
uation. It is Just as important to
spend tax money wisely as it is to
raise it upon an equitable and nat
ural scientific basis.

N. Y. Crashes
Threaten Ban on
Stunt Flights
Nine Lose Lives Within Week on
Long Island Fields; Author
ities Plan Action.
Roosevelt Field, N. Y.. July 2.
The series of air disasters near this
field in the last 10 days may result
in adoption of a rigid ban on "stunt,
flying" all over Long Island and in
the metropolitan district, it develop
ed today.
The cycle of fatal accidents,
which reached its climax yesterday
in the death of Wilmer Stultz, trans
atlantic aviator, and two compan
ions, has aroused the ire of airport
authorities, Department of Commerce
officials and others interested in
aviation.
Air crashes have claimed nine
lives in the last week.
The death of Stultz, who plunged
to earth in his Waco biplane after
going into a tailspin at a height of
500 feet.
Investigators for the Department
of Commerce, poking around in the
wreckage of the plane, found evi
dence to indicate Stultz's passengers.
Edward Harwood and Pasquale Cas
telluccio, had unwittingly "frozen"
the dual controls of the little plane,
thereby making it impossible for the
pilot to right the ship when it went
into its spin.
While this discovery may possibly
explain the cause of the accident, it
does not absolve Stultz from blame.
Col. N. J. Boots, vice president and
general manager of Roosevelt field,
declared. He said Stultz violated one
of the first provisions of the univer
sal flying code when he took his
plane into the air without first mak
ing sure the dual controls in the
passenger's cockpit had been discon
nected. Stultz was a pilot of wide exper
ience, who first learned to fly dur
ing the world war. The high spot of
his career was reached last year
when he piloted the Friendship,
carrying Miss Amelia Earhart from
Tiepassey, N. F., to Burry Port.

Paving Contracts
to be Let by the
Council Monday
Summer Program Will Include Northi
11th Street, Pershing Avenue
and Elm Street
The city council at its session on
next Monday evening is to take up
the matter of the permanent street
improvements for the year 1929 and
have the contracts let for the paving
of the stree's where the resident
abuting property owners have signi
fied their desire to have the paving
done.
The districts where the paving will
be made this year will include that
on Pershing avenue south to Pat
terson avenue, making the only
through paved street into the South
Park neighborhood and furnishing a
long needed highway into that part
of the city, this district being created
last year but was held up in a con
test of the petition but was finally
decided in favor of the proponents
of the paving an1 the city will now
have the work carried out.
The paving on North Eleventh
street, extending some five blocks
will also be in the bidding for the
summer paving program and will
cover a street where there has been
a strong effort for a number of years
to secure the paving and which fin
ally led to the residents there fav
oring the paving securing the neces
sary sixty per cent of the resident
abuting property owners to present
to the council anJ where under the
law the district was created.
On Elm street from Fifth to Sixth
there will be a block of paving placed
in by the request of the property
owners who will then have paving
around the north, east and west sides
of the block and this will make a.
very fine cut over street from the
Fifth street paving to that of Sixth.
While a district was created on
South Fifth street on the iniative
of the council, the fact that the
residents there are not favorable to
the matter will cause this district
to be left out of the proposed pav
ing program for the year.
