It will be necessary to hct nulchlj .
Mr Beebcr was asked If a meeting
or tne couii"ii"-c -- --
would be called In a week or so. Ho
S that he did not know. He
was alo questioned as to whether the

Many Names Considered
"Arc many names being considered?'
Tfc was questioned.
"Yes, a Iarjo number, but some have
been eliminated. I understand nlore
1 ire being added every day.
"Do you know, Mr. Beebcr, that
edueitors all over tho city nro making
unfavorable comments on the accretive -mm
and fnlluro of tho committee to
,bow action?"
"I don't care what they think,"
uld Mr. lleeber.
Mr. lleeber aluo declared emphatically
tint tho meeting to consider recom
mendations for a final choice for the
post would not be a public one. Some
member of the board have stood out
for public sPRslons on this matter and
ill the information that could bo
lecured in this way, to aid them in a
telectlgn.
When publicly questioned by Mrs.
William Llngelbach, a member of the
board at the Sfptembqr meeting, Mr.
Beeber caid that much had been done
by the committee and a great deal more
rould be done, llu bIko stated that a
meeting; of the committee would be held
In a In weeks and that It was possible
that the name of the man selected would
come beo'c the hoard for approval ot
the October ineptlng.
Joseph V. Catharine, another mcm
tier d( the committee"; again reiterated
hit stand that the widest and most open
learvh nhouUl be Instituted for tho
proper man for the post of head of the
iclool syetem and that he should have
tbe'huheKt possible qualifications, also
that an Increased salary be paid and
the tenure of office be lengthened. He
madi a number of recammpnilntlntw ti
tht corarnUtee concerning educators
considered eligible for tho post. Ho
Mr. How en. the fifth member of the
committee, iiold:
"I believe that we have men right In
our own school system who are fine
men, able In every way to fill the duties
of the post. Wo wont a superintendent
who will be a superintendent and who
will be active and will visit the schools
and keep in touch with them and at nil
times know their needs.

Taking Chances:
The Way to Avoid. It in Buying Lumber.
A SARCASTIC gentleman who has
had endless trouble about freight,
says that shipments by rail ought to
be stopped, on the ground .that games of
chance are unlawful.
We have greatly reduced chances on
lumber shipments by our concentration
yard at Sumter, S. C. To start with, we
can nearly always get cars there, because
Sumter is a great lumber center, and cars
are constantly coming in to be unloaded.
Then we keep there immense stocks of all
needed sifes, so that we can. often load
and ship orders in hyo or three days,, in
stead of weeks, which it commonly takes
when orders are divided among several
mills, to be shipped separately.
At thd best, builders must take many
chances; but you can always lessen chances nnd
increase safety by wise choice of your source
of lumber supply. .
Some day you'll build. If you want tho
work finished on time, see thnt the lumber
comes from LLOYD. '

STAIR
for Hot Air Furnaces
IF YOUR furnaces pipes are not covered, or if they are
covered only with a single layer of Asbestos paper yon
are losing an amazing amount of heat in the base
ment which ought to be going to your rooms above.
Scientifically measured tests conducted this year by the
Engineering Experiment Station of the University of Illinois
proved the truth of that statement. Ask for booklet.
To correct this evil The Philip Carey Company now
offers you ASBESTAIR (an air filled asbestos insulation
specially designed for furnace pipes). It stops the waste
of heat in the basement, forces more to the rooms above,
and will keep the average eight-room house warmer than
ever before on approximately two rons less coal per
season.
Asbestair covering for your furnace pipes will generally
cost less than the coal it saves the first ycaf. It requires
no care, and no repair, and, will cut your coal bill every
winter hereafter.
