The single fact that reliability is the 
first requirement in farm equipment, 
points straight to the Hupmobile as 
the farm motor car. 
For years it has been known as a 
thoroughly trustworthy car—ready 
for work from sun-up to sun-down, 
and even long after, without babying 
and petting. 
Such ability alone would make it a 
prime investment, for that ability is a 
tremendous saver of time and money. 
But on top of it is the running econ¬ 
omy for which the Hupmobile is 
equally well known—its long mile¬ 
ages on gas and oil and tires. 
Business houses which travel large 
crews of salesmen, prefer the Hup¬ 
mobile for its known economy and 
reliability. 
They have experimented with cars 
which were lower in first cost; and 
they find the Hupmobile to be lower 
in last cost. 
The Hupmobile, in short, gives better 
service at lower cost—and its records 
backus up when we say that the farmer 
who buys it with that expectation is 
going to find his expectation realized. 
The Hupmobile is built by an old and well-established company , and is favorably known all over the world

The School Question 
High School Tuition 
T am a trustee of our district school. 
Some of our cliililreu go to Macodon high 
School. All children over the eighth 
grade in our district must pay tuition. 
How much money will that lie for each 
child? As I understand it. when they 
are past 111 years old we are done with 
them, and we do not have to pay for 
them. Am I right or wrong? 0 . s. 
All children who have completed the 
eighth grade in your district and attend 
a high school (academic department) in 
another district are entitled to free 
tuition. Under the present law the State 
pays this tuition up to the amount of 
$30 per pupil per year. If 'the high 
school district which they attend charges 
more than this amount it must be paid 
by the district from which the children 
come. This holds even though the chil¬ 
dren are over 30 years of age. To de¬ 
termine how much you will need to add 
to your tax budget for 'tuition subtract 
$30 from the amount charged by the dis¬ 
trict in which they are attending high 
sol.1 atul multiply it by the number of 
children that are attending. 0. a. w. 
Child’s Working Papers 
What is the law in Now York State as 
to schooling? How old must a child be 
to get out of school, and what grade must 
lie be in? I am 15 years old and in the 
eighth grade. Can I get out of school? 
Broome Co., X. Y. S. m. 
If you are past your fifteenth birthday 
and in the eighth grade you would be 
eligible to receive an employment cer¬ 
tificate. There are several blanks that 
must be filled out to secure tins certifi¬ 
cate. and your first step is to make appli¬ 
cation for it through the teacher in your 
district. G, A. w. 
Requirements for Rural Teachers 
What further preparation is necessary 
before teaching rural school in this State, 
after a person has finished high school? 
This one I speak of is a graduate from a 
-Minnesota accredited school. How much 
normal training is required here? Will 
a >ix weeks' Summer term be sufficient? 
Otsego Co., X. Y. l. L. l. 
At present attendance at a six weeks’ 
Summer school is required beyoud com¬ 
pletion of a four-year high school course. 
1'here has been talk of higher standards 
being set. and it might be well for von 
to write to W. A. Ilulcomb. State Depart¬ 
ment of Education. Albany, X. Y. 
Non-resident Pupils; School Elections 
1. Under the present school law has a 
high school any right to charge tuition 
for one child in the grades and one in 
lush school? Aly wife rents a house in 
the district for a year and resides there 
during school year. '2. lias a man any 
right to vote at school meeting when he 
Works his mother’s farm, but does not 
send children to (lie school nor pay anv 
tax/ His mother lives on the farm and 
keeps house, and she votes at the school 
meeting? 3. Is a school meeting legal 
where they have allowed nOu-voters to 
YOte? w. .T. w. 
3. The parent can have but one legal 
residence. Presumably father and moth¬ 
er live and vote in the same place. This 
point would determine the residence. It 
is not possible to escape tuition by rent¬ 
ing a house in a district, when the’voting 
;residence is maintained elsewhere, 
a 2. The man working for his mol her and 
lending no children to school is not cn- 
1 it led (o vote, unless lie has property in 
his name in the district. 
3. Proceedings of a meeting can be set 
aside for illegal voting only when it is 
shown that enough illegal votes were cast 
to change the result, G. a. \v. 
Powers of District Superintendent 
The trustee of our school is having a 
little disagreement with the district su¬ 
perintendent. uml the superintendent says 
he can take away, or cause to be taken 
away, the school’s public money, nr part 
of it. Can lie do this it we do not do 
exactly as ho says? Mils. J. E. M. 
Tlie State education law and rulings of 
the Department of Education made in 
conformity with the law permit district 
superintendents to withhold public monev 
in full (not in part) for failure to com¬ 
ply with requirements. Whether or not 
the district superitvndent has authority 
in the case in point I am unable to state, 
as Mrs. ,T. E. M. does not indicate whal 
it is.. It is probable that he does, as the 
district superintendents generally make 
it a point to keep themselves informed 
with respect to their powers. The Coin- 
mil lee of Twenty-one found that there are 
many cases where a professional officer 
has authority over a representative of 
the laity. It feels that tips is unwise, 
and this was one of (he considerations 
that lead to the suggestion that this dis¬ 
trict superintendent have a board repre¬ 
sentative of the people associated with 
him in the administration of the schools.
