Try Get Teachers Write About Work Teachers' Association Offers Three Prizes of Fifty Hollar* KhcIi for Pajiers Raleigh. August 8 ? The State Teachers* Association, as an induce . .went to get the toachers of the State to write about their work, is offering three awards of fifty dollars each f<?r the article on some phase of the educational work of the State. Miss Elizabeth Kelly, presi dent, announced recently. These themes should deal with some out standing educational need, Miss Kelly explained, or some outstanding educational accomplishment in North Carolina. The Executive Committee of the Association is suggestion to the teachers that they can find much material on which to base those the mes in the courses of study offer ed hy a special commltte of the As sociation. The outlines of this .course of study are now being printed and will be placed in the hands of the city and county super intendents, an'd the officers of the local units during the next few weeks. "Th!s, however, is merely a suggestion," said Miss Kelly, '"for the committee does not want to limit the field from which the themes foi these articles may be chosen, so long as it relates to public education. "The teachers of the State are do ing an increasingly improved work in the school rooms." Miss Kelly as serted, "and it Is with the hope of getting teachers who are really do ing outstanding work, to write about this work for the benefit of other members of the profession that the prizes are offered. Should some teacher find in her work an outstanding need, something that will improve the educational system in the State, that may also be select ed as the basis for these seudies. The Association wants these studies to be based on a rather exhaustive Investigation, so that the articles re sulting will be of lasting value to the profession. ''An exhaustive study of the ben efits of the consolidation, the stan dardization of the elementary schools, the establishment of the county wide plan, the returns on the Investment In education, the Im provetr?nt resulting from proper supervision, a practical application of the teaching of geography, his tory or the other subjects to the life of a community, better results ob tained from now methods or any subject In this or related fields, In clude some of the suggestions of the committee."

Not all these comments are favorable to Velie?competitors discount this motor, naturally. They have to, In their own interest, discount the merits of an engine that is at 'east Cu>o years ahead in design, while there is no immediate prospect of anything In It* price class to compete with it. Bear in'mind two things: This Is the motor whose automatic lubrication system, force-feeding oil even to the piston pins, is adapted from the airplane and has been featured previously only on a few of the most expensive cars. And this is the engine that is delivering to thousands of Velie owners from 20 to 25 miles to the gallon of gasoline. There must be some reason for the tremendous increase in Velie popularity. If you want the real facts about motors and car value in the medlucvpriced field, talk with a Velie 58 owner. He knows.
