The Bureau of Education will be unable to fill many calls for teachers according to the paseent rate of a students who have filed their applications in Prof. W. H. Johnson's applications of seniors and graduateice. So far only about seventy-five teachers have received teaching positions and in the next few weeks requests for teachers will come in quite rapidly.
Seniors and graduate students who have not enrolled and expect to teach should file their application as soon as possible, as there is much to be done after the applications are received. The University to the Bureau of Education. Recommendations from the faculty must come in after the students have applied for positions before any appointments are made. "The enrollment this year has been much slower than in previous years for a long time," said Miss Rivers.
English seems to be the favorite subject, as usual, for most of the students who have applied have expressed a preference for teaching English. Social sciences are also popular, and many students are taught English, while none have applied for teaching Latin. Only two have expressed a preference for French, and there are indications that there will be a shortage of teachers for all the modern languages. The Bureau will need more Home Economics teachers than have applied, also. Miss Riggs says that teachers should be men to teach science and direct athletes than can be supplied.

ABRANGE FAMILY BUDGET
Only 16 Percent of Income is Allowed for Clothing
Clothing a family of five on the amount allowed in the "ideal" family budget as worked out by students of college is no more than prove a difficult task to more than one housewife of today as it requires that the woman of the house be able to make her own dresses, the children and well as the husband's clothing and salamina.
Approximately 16 per cent of the yearly income of a family of five is allowed for clothing in the budget. This amount provides for every artisan and craftsman, as well as students of the family and the home economics students say that it should be sufficient if the woman of the home does her own sewing, makes her purchases at end-of-season ants and uses them to make clothes for older children for the voucher ones.
At this rate a family of five with a yearly income of $2400 should spend no more than $384 on clothes. This amount should be divided among the members of the family as follows: Man, $116.40; woman, $102.80; boy of 9, $73.50; girl of 78; girl of 3 years, $33.72. Forty-one dollars and seventy four cents is allowed also for incidentals, such as pins, hairpins and collar-bButtons.
These figures should please the men as it allows the head of the family to spend more for clothes than any other member.

We know that pottery lamps of petty thieves in each community. These are either children or adults with the mental age of children."

CLARA HAMON'S TRIAL WILL BE SPEEDY ONE
Self-Defense Will Probably Be Her Only Defense for Murder
TENTATIVE JURY SELECTED
Mrs. Hamon Did Not Appear;
Hamon, Jr. Attended
Orientation.
This will be a long drawn out trial, judging from the speed in picking the tentative jury, as both the judge and the attorney are determined to get it over briskly.
It is certain that the final jury will be selected today, and the taking of testimony will begin, tomorrow. All challenges have been made.
Courthouse, Ardmore, Okla., Mar. 10—Speedy justice will be meted out to Clara S. Hamon it was assured today when a tentative jury had been selected within three hours after the beginning of her trial.
The defendant charged with the murder of the rich and powerful J. L. Hamon has regained her nerves which she seemed to have lost when she entered the courtroom this morning. At first she twitched nervously, bit her finger nails, and moved in her seat restlessly.
"I was horribly frightened this morning," she said, as she left the courtroom with her sister, Mrs. Dan James of Los Angeles, and her mother Mrs. J. Smith of El Paso. "But I must not give away, and I won't be able to find a lawyer for the Lord would guide in the selection of men to determine my future."
Throughout the morning Carla's mother sat expressionless at her side. Carla tried to buoy her up with an意外 word but it was futile. The tentative jury is composed of five farmers and one each of the follo- iming industries, business man, oil worker, drugger, merchant, mercant, and saleman. All they are married and have children. They range from thirty-five to seventy-eight years in age. Pre幼童 grillings were more severe by J. B. Champion, twin brother of Judge Champion, who is a counsel for the defense than those by the state. Champion always opens his examination the following question: "Do you believe in the law of self-defense?"
This leads to the assumption that self-defence will be Claira's way out. He also questions each prospective applicant for his interest, Mrs. Hamon didn't attend the first day of the trial, and will not likely appear until called to the stand. The son, J. L. Hamon, Jr., is now at the side of the courtroom all morning.
The courtroom was crowded, but the turnout for the number trial was less than expected. The court adjourned at 1:30 for a brief time.
