PLAN DRIVE FOR
RURAL SCHOOLS!
2,000 Meet at Bloomington to
Talk Issues.
“To give the rural child a square deal
is the only purpose of the conference at
Bloomington,” said L. X. Hines, state
superintendent of public instruction, in
diacussing the work of the five-day con
ference on rural education, whose ses
sions are being held this week at
Bloomington.
Mr. Hines, who was in Indianapolis a
few hours, returned to Bloomington,
where he will remain until the confer
ence closes Friday.
Between 1,500 and 2,000 persons are in
attendance at each of the daily sessions,
says Mr. Hines.
“The Use of the Phonograph in the
Public Schools," by Miss Mabel Rich,
demonstrator for the Victor Talking Ma
chine Company of Camden, N. J.. is oae
of the interesting features of the con
ference.
“Community Co-Operation,” “Agrienl
ture in the Public School,” “The Country
Life Movement at Home and Abroad’' :
and “The Meaning of Vacation" will be
•ome of the topics discussed at the re
malning sessions of the conference.
URGE THREE THINGS
POB IMPROVEMENT.
“The three things which we are urging
for the improvement of the rural
schools,” said Mr. Hines, “are better i
teachers, better school buildings and
longer terms.”
Mr. Hines 6aid there are hundreds of
- schools in Indiana whirl, are far
from good.
“It is not hard to find many country
school teachers who are not properly
trained.”
Mr. Hines said that until the rural ;
teacher is as efficient as the city teacher !
the country and the city child would not
be on an equal footing.
”We intend first to try to get the peo
ple to listen to us: we shall hold rural
meetings all over the state for this pur
pose.
ACTION STEP IS
MOST DIFFICULT.
“When we get their attention the next
step is to get them to take action, and
that is the hardest part.”
Mr. Hines said there are about 1,000
consolidated school buildings in the
state, and about 5,000 one-room schools,
while there are 372,000 children In the
township schools.
In discussing the work of the Bloom
ington conference, Mr. Hines said its pur
pose is to get the trustees together with
the teachers and all other persons who
ere interested In rural education.
“The general atmosphere is one of in
tense interest,” said Mr. Hines.
“The people attending the conference
ere there for business.”
“We sincerely hope they will be able
to help us In improving the condition*
In our country schools in the immedi
ate future.”

Skin Easy to Have
Since its remarkable astringent and
tonic properties became known, clever
women all over the world have been
using the saxolite face bath to “tone up”
their faces, remove wrinkles and draw
flabby cheeks and neck back to normal.
After using the solution the face im
mediately feels much firmer. The skin
tightening evenly all over the face, thus
reducing lines and sagginess. The for
mula Is: Powdered saxolite, one ounce,
dissolved in witch harel. one-haif pint.
This simple aud harmless face bath
Is a splendid thing for the outdoor girl,
since sun, wind and flying dust are so
provocative of squinting and other con
tortions which cause wrinkles and crow's
feet. Also, It is fine to freshen np a tired
faoe In hot, depressing weather.—Adver

A New Serial of Young Married Life
By ANN LISLE.
CHAPTER LXXXVII.
Virginia gave Phoebe an annoyed look.
“Dear me, why report the state of my
slumbers V” 6be smiled coldly. “Suppose
we don’t discuss it any more, Anne—and
please don’t go over and make a scene
at tbe florist's. I shan't be home all day
—so it doesn't matter at all about the
flowers, you see.”
How I ever got up the courage after
that, I don't know —but I managed to
offer to go along shopping, if that were
agreeable to Virginia, and I invited both
Jim's sisters to lunch with me.
Virginia accepted coldly, but Phoebe
ran over and gave me a quick hug as
her sister disappeared into the bedroom
of the smart suite, for which my poor
Jim had offered to pty.
“Did you explain to Neal that I loved
his flowers—and was Just dying to
speak to him'/” she whispered.
“■Well—hardly, Phoebe. You didn't
convey that,” I said a bit wryly—pass
ing on, as sensitive folks have a bad
way of doing, the hurt I had suffered
from someone else.
Rebuffed and flushing, Phoebe hurried
into the bedroom after Virginia 1 fear
she won't make any advances to me soon
again. I had an unhappy fiteen minutes
of waiting. Then the sisters c;uue out
together, Phoebe looking like a pretty,
frightened little bird in her brown suit.
Virginia regal and seeming unaware of
her arresting beauty, in a perfectly plain
black dress collared In moleskin.

Phoenix on a food means “qual

Beans, Catsup, Jellied Fruits, Chili

its purity and flavor.
' '
We aga&t two hours at the Interior
decorato*#—but neter once in all that
time did Virginia ask Phoebe’s opinion—
or mine. Evidently she makes her own
decisions.
In keeping with that observation I
asked her to select the place where we
should lunch—and never was setting
more absolutely made for a woman than
the clean-cut elegance of Carller's, the
restaurant of her choice, was for Vir
ginia Dalton.
“Oh, this is perfect:” cried Poebe
sinking back into her chair with a lux
urious air of complete contentment.
“It will be, I'm sure—after Virginia
orders the lunch,” I replied with the
intent to honor my guest—and to save
myself the difficulties of dealing with
the menu and the smart-looking captain
who stood deferentially waiting our
pleasure.
Then, as I sat back in turn and began
to drink In tbe quiet, elegance of the
place and the stunning people all about
us, my mind focused on what Virginia
was saying, and my eyes wandered back
to the menu In front of me. A little
calculation in mental arithmetic fol
lowed.
And in my purse there was the $5
Neall had given me a week before—the
13 and a little silver. I<ess than enough
to pay the check.—Copyright, 1920.

Phoenix Coffee—
A Meal-Time Delight
Phoenix coffee excels because its strength and flavor
are guarded in every way. You will appreciate the
Phoenix quality particularly when serving Iced Coffee.
Its goodness has been standarized by scientifically cor
rect processes, far more costly than those employed in
the production of ordinary coffees.
These precautions insure that the flavor which wins
your favor when first you taste Phoenix coffee will be
found in every can that bears the Phoenix name.
You will appreciate the importance of this fact once
you try Phoenix Coffee. Ask your grocer for a can
today.
