WHITE HOVSE KXPHXSKS
Taft and the White House cost
gsnsiderable money. W hen Gen*
enl Grant was elected presi-
4ent, the salary was $25,000 a
year and he paid his own ex-
panses, and he was so well sat-
isfied with the job that he was
the only president who ever ask-
md for the third term-
Congressman Hitchcock in the
Mew York World gives the fol-
lowing statement regarding Pres-
ident Taft’s expense:
Salary................$75,000
^Traveling expenses. •. • 25,000
Care of White House • • 50,000
Fuel.............. 6,000
Green Houses......... 12,500
Stables............... 25.000
Lighthing............. 4,000
Police ................ 22,000
Secret Service......... 3,000
Contingent expenses • • 25,000
Clerks asd employees • 69,000
Repairs............... 16,000
Total $339,000
Besides this expense three
ships are kept for the private use
of the president, viz: The May-
Sower, the Dolphin and the
Sylph. The expense of these
ahipsare charged to the navy,
hat they are used for the private
apd social use of Mr. Taft. This
cost added to the above would
make the total over half a million
dollars. This is as much expense
hi one year as Washington,
Adams, Jefferson, Madison and
Monroe spent in thirty years.

Rev. Jarrell conducted the relig-
ious exercises, and gave a most
inspiring address on the respon-
sibility of the teacher.
Supt Holmes counseled the
teachers further in a most appro-
priate manner and then proceed-
ed to business. Prof. Geo. M.
Johnson and Misa Hudnall Rog-
ers were elected by acclamation
as chairman and secretary re-
spectively. Eighty-five teachers
were enrolled, after which the
program waa begun. The first,

mean to the Teacher,” by Prof.
C. L. Reason, quickly aroused
the teachers’ attention to their
duties for the week, Prof. A.
Escoe following this discussion
with the subject, "Enthusiasm
as a Teacher in School Work,”
thoroughly stirred the Institute
to more determination for work.

ren, Misses Paine and Rogers.

The teachers were deeply im-
pressed of their responsibility by
the reading of the most excel-
lently prepared papers on the
"Teacher as a Molaer of Charac-
ter,” by Misses McDonald and
Rogers, principals of Midyett
and Woods schools.
This closed the assigned work
of the Institute. The afternoon
was devoted to business relative
to school matters. Reading re-
ports of committees heard, reso-
lutions read and voted upon. A
unanimous vote of thanks and
appreciation was extended to our
county superintendent for his
unceasing and untiring energy in
the advancement of our schools
and the interest in his teachers.
The Institute organized a read-
ing circle, which should be of
great benefit to the teachers of
the county.
