A DISTINCTION WITHOUT A DIFFERENCE.
On April 11 tbe News criticised ,
the action of the Board of Education
In creattu* iha iffice of assistant supervisor
of schools for Beaufort
county.
We presumo this is the criticism
referred to by Superintendent Priv.
elto in Ma article published In toduy's
News, as this is I be only public
crltloism we know of.
We do not quite understand how
Supt. Prlvette can qualify his statement
that no new office has been created,
he to well aware that this office
was not In existence prior to the
meeting of the board of April 6. We
do not see the difference between a
new office and a new position, there
may be a distinction without a differ
pace so far as the peoples' money
Is concerned.
We are of the opinion that as the
superintendent says "the predominant
spirit of the people is for pro.
proas," but not for the few at the
cost of the many.
Taking Mr. Privette's statement to
be true, that is to say, "The great
majority of our teachers are women
and that a lady assistant supervisor
will do a work that no superintendent
has done or can ever bo able
to do." Then would It not be a
better policy and economy for.the
board to employ a lady superintendent
instead of a man. We submit
that If a lady supervisor can control
and advise a majority of the
teachers In the county in a more advantageous
and satisfactory mannet*
than can a man, then the lady is
the one to be named as superintendent,
and let her assume all the duties
of the office without an assist,
ant.
Mr. Prixette says: "We must not
lose eight of the fact that any system
of city schools would be considered
incomplete, did not it have Its
supervising principal, whose duty it
is to advise with the teachers and
help them with their problems."
This statement coincides with our
opinion and we think the duties of
the city superintendent and those of
the county superintendent are ope
and the same, to-wlt: it is the duty
of each to superintend and super
via? 'the schools under their Jurisdiction.
There can not be much comparison
made of the two positions be.
cause the city superintendent's work
extends over a period of eight to
nine months each year, while
that of the county superintendent Is
confined to five months of the year,
and he has seven months In which
to outline his work and perfect his
organizations In the various districts.
Superintendent Privett's plan
mlgjbt be a feasible one In a community
where the schools have reached
a higher stage of development
than has Beaufort county, but for the
present there 1b other work which
should receive the attention and funds
of the board before employing an assistant
supervisor, who will, as the
superintendent says, supervise only
about ten schools each year.
Below are some of the things for
which we think this money could be
spent more wisely:
In Beaufort county there are 7 4
white schools, on'.y 4 1 of which have
school buildings, which come up to
the plans and requirements of the
State Board of Education. The County
Board might use this money to
help there communities build better
school houses and In places where
the citizens are not able to raise
their part of the money, would It not
be the part of wisdom to erect the
buildings for them and let tbem repay
It as they could?
In the 74 wnlte white schools
there are probably about 100 teachers
and we dare say 90 per cent of
them are not paid more than enough
to make a bare living with nothing
left for which to provide against
sickness, accident or old age. Is this
policy a sensible one? Could not
. the money which the board proposes
to pay ad assistant supervisor be
spent-in a bettor cause by Increasing J
the'salaries of some of the under.1
paid teachers? I
There are ether things which ws
could suggest that would he worth

He should at least have paid
a vla^g to eaOj of the schools under
his supervision before making recom.
inundations which Involve, aa w* sen j
It, the unnecessary expenditure of
several hundred dollars of the school
funds. Ha attempts to justify his
action by the statement that the expenditure
fqr an assistant will not
create a deficit. If the employing of
an assistant would not make a deficit
then the same amount spent In
teachers' salaried or In new echool '
buildings would not create a deficit.
It Is gratifying to know that the
School Board has more funds than
are necessary to conduct the schools
for the required length of time. Let's
have a six months' school term Instead
of five.

Just as suddenly aha found herself
wondering what sort of a woman had

years. Bhe waa conscloos of a poignant
pang of envy-Jealousy whnostragainst

which waa denied her.
"Well, what do you think of. your

"He wants to boost yon," she added,
suddenly.
"Letting out secreta," her father accused,
playfully.
But Katherine was never more serious.
"You're his dark hoTse," she
persisted.
"You're! a lucky man, senator,"
Slade broke In, as he watched Katherine
admiringly. "You're a lucky
man to have a charming young woman
behind you In the race."
"That's all we women are for," answered
Katherine, bitterly, "standing
behind some man and watching him
do things."
"Why, child alive, you do things
yourself," the senator remonstrated.
"She makes busts,Blade?heads. Done
some big guns In Europe."
Katherine sighed and leaned back
wearily In her chair. "Oh, In my
feminine way, I model," she admitted.
"But If there'd been one drop of Napoleon

to fall back on molding clay. I should
have been molding," she hesitated,
and then finished daringly, "opinions

CHAPTER III.
Just how much more freely Katherine
might have revealed her alms
and Inspirations, Blade could not
know, for at that moment the butler
appeared and engaged his attention.
As the' man withdrew, Slade spread
wide his arms and announced grandiloquently
:
"The gentleman of the water-front
crowd, If you please. Mr. Wesley
Merrltt, the gentleman who wasn't going
to darken my door. Is here!"
He broke off with a loud, mirthless
laugh. As well as any man who ever
lived, he liked to feel the grip of his
own power. He had come to the point
where It was genuine satisfaction to
humble men and conquer things.
"Wenley Merrltt!" the senator was
almost too surprised for speech.
"After bis abuse of you hi the paper
today? And Hunt! How did you
do it?"
"This Is the sort of thing I like,"
broke in Katherino, eagerly. "Oh, lfs
bo exciting," she declared, her eyes
glowing with eagerness and animation.
"Oh, Mr. Slade, how did you 'make
them kow-tow?"
Blade's reply was prevented by the
brusque, excited entrance of Merrltt
and Hunt The pair, angry and belligerent,
strode into the room without
a word. Merrltt small, wiry, ener^
getlc, was in the lead, followed closely
by his shadow and echo. Hunt
"Is it truer' he demanded angrily,
before he realized that 81ade was not
alone. "How do you do, senator?
Miss Strickland!" he exclaimed, in
surprise. "Lovely home you have, Mr.
Slade," he added, trying to adjust himself
to the ecene he had not expected.
"An astonishing rumor has reached
us, Mr. Slade," he finally declared, getting
down to the business of his Invasion.
"It concerns you, senator. It
concerns every public-spirited man in
the city. Is it true, Slade, that you
have bought up our entire water front
on which our residences?our old
homes?the mansions of the city face,
and that you Intend building factories
there?" .
"Why, yes," Blade admitted, with
maddening calmness.
"What?" Strickland almost shotted,
completely astounded.
"But?but it can't be ddne." Merrltt
was so excited now that he etutterea
his words.
"It can't be done," echoed Hunt. He
was well paid for being an echo.
"Our best people live there." proLr?tcd
Merrltt.

"go ahead with your paper,

"You?srlll, eh?" Merrltt's tono was
ominous. "What sort of factories are

"You can't build glue factories here,"
and he emphasised every word with
an angry shake of his finger.
"By God, you?"

lawyer and almost a member of the
family, had the entree to the house at

"Here'e my lawyer," remarked Blade,
dryly, "ask Ixlm."
"Of course It can be done," Hayes
Informed them, convincingly. "It's perfectly
legitimate."
Then, as if to dismiss a perfectly
obvious subject, he turned to the girl,
who had been enjoying every point
that Blade had scored.
{Catherine's eyes lighted with warm
welcome. It was the first time she
had seen Hayes since she had returned.
He was the man she had once
wanted to marry, once before her 1
father had given her the choice of
Hayes or a finishing school In Paris *
and a tour of Europe. Now she greeted 1
him with cordial friendship, but with 1
none of the sweet tenderness he might 3
have expected from her. Once she
had looked up Into hla eyes and thought 1
him a god. Now, her eyes blinded by
the glare of ambition, she saw Only a (

turned Hayes' burning, penetrating 1
gaze with cool, unruffled frankness. In 1
another moment she had turned from 1
him and was earnestly watching Blade, ^
listening to his evory word with eager 1
Intentness. 1
"You see, I'm a very simple sort of
fellow," Blade was saying, "don't drink *

his oft-repeated formula as he rem em- I
