Board Of Education Finds it Nee
essary to Employ More Help for
Teaching Forceof Schools
NEW BUILDING Is NECESSARY
Crowded Condition of the City Schools
Will Make it Necessary to Build on
the West Side Before Another
School Year Opens
fn8 6sllsflo3

The great increase in the number
OF children registered in the city
schools this year has made it neces-
sary for the board of education to take
steps to enlarge the teaching force,
and at the meeting of the board held
at the city hail Tuesday night it was
decided to employ two new teachers.
One will have charge of the new sew
enth grade room in one of the schools,
and the other will be employed to
have charge of the added work in the
High school. The attendance at the
high school is now 255, and by the end
of the second week it is expected to
be at least 285. With this number of
students the present teaching force is
entirely inadequate and the new
teacher will have work enough to
keep her busy at all periods of the
day.
The resignation of Miss Ella Toner
was 9read to the board. Miss Toner
announces that she will enter Pratt
Institute at Brooklyn, and Miss Rose
Ryan was elected to have charge of
her room at the Frank school. The
employment of Miss Mae Ryan to take
the place of Miss Hattie Pau1son was
also approved by the board.
Following the meeting the board
took up an informal discussion of the
troubles arising from the crowded
condition of the schools. The report
Of the superintendent showed that
there were over 1000 pupils already
registered in the different schools,
and it is expected that the number
will be increased by 800 more before
the end of the second week. Six
rooms are now being doubled up in
order to give the children even a half
day Of work. The number of pupils
in the different schools, as given by
the perintendent, was as follows:
High school, 255; Central building,
210; Frank building, ia; Durkee
building, 456; Weiskopf building, sol;
Gil1ett building, los, and Deming
building, 800.
There has been an exceedingly
large increase in the number of pu.
pills from the West side of the city
and the board recognizes that there is
an immediate demand for more &C.
Communications for pupils in this sec.
ton. The committees of the board
have taken into consideration the
lack of funds in the city treasury, but
nOfwith STA 1di1o this FL If +hav have
decided that the new building on the
West side must be built before the
opening of another school year. No
site has been selected for the proposed
building, and no definite action has
been taken in regard to the new build
ing, but it is probable that the board
will take some steps at the next meet
ing to secure plans for the new
building.

Wisconsin State Committee is
Formed to Secure Enforce.
ment Of Child Labor Laws
KEN0SHA TO TAKE UP WORK
A. E. Buckmaster is Named as a
Member of the Committee to Insist
On the Enforcement of the State
Laws in This Section

An important step in the enforce
ment of child labor law was taken
yesterday afternoon through the or
ganization of a Wisconsin child labor
committee, whose object is to enforce
the child labor laws and assist in
familiarizing the people with them.
AT a meeting of interested people
held in Milwaukee general commit
tee was appointed, with representa-
tives from various points in the state,
and an executive committee was
elected to have charge of the business
matters of the league and to serve six
months.
E. w. Frost was elected chairman
of the executive committee, Fl. H.
Jacobs secretary, and the other mem
bers are Prof. A. J. Hutton of the
Wisconsin Industrial School for Boys
at Waukesha, the Rev. E. C. Eissfe1dt,
the Rev. A. G. Grier of Racine, and
Jacob Billikopf.
Those elected to serve on the gen.
era1 committe are Mrs. Howard Van
w y
Carpenter, Edward w. Frost, Jacob
Bi1likopf of Milwaukee; A J. Hutton
of Waukesha; Mrs. B. B. Gudden and
r. Fl. Ha1sey of Oshkosh; Prof. John
r. Commons of the Wisconsin uni
versity; A. E. Buckmaster of Kenosha;
the Rev. &c. Eissfe1dt of Wauwatosa;
O. Fl. Ingram of Eau Claire; the Rev.
Joseph M. Spence Of Green Bay, and
the Rev. A. C.<Grier of Racine.
DIR. Samuel McCune Lindsay of
Pennsylvania, secretary Of the nation
al child labor committee, was present
at the meeting, and gave an interest
ing talk on the work Of that organi-
cation. The first work Of the COM
nittee will be to distribute 10000
pamphlets containing the child
labor and compulsory education bills,
in order to raise the standard of pub
lie opinion and parental responsible
ity and to assist in protecting the
children against the effects of ignor-
auce. of the laws The Wisconsin
child labor faw, Which is SAID to be
one of the most effective in operation,
has been recommended for adoption
in all the states.
The work of the committee will be
of theRmost Importance in Kenosha as
this city.has more child 1aborers than
any otherscity of its size in the state.
For many years an effort has been
made ingKenosha to have the state
law in this regard enforced to the
very 1ettersand Judge Slosson, who
is in charge of the issuance of per-
mits for the children who work, has
made the law study and the results
of his study have been very crafty
ing. Not single arrest for violation
of the law has;been made here during
the paststwo years, while in tformer
years arrests were made every time
the ia Glory inspector came to town.
The number Of children employed
in the Kenosha factories is over 1000
and many of them should be in school
rather than in the factories. Attor-
ney Buckmaster, who has been named
as a member of the state committee,
took greatisdeal of interest in the
affairs of the children while he was
districts of the county and
this work has been his recommends
ton for place on the committee.

WELCOME WORDS

Women who suffer with disorders pecu-
liar to their sex should write to DR.. Pierce
and receive free the advice of physician
and successful specialist in the diseases
of women. Every letter has the most
careful consideration and is regarded as

modest women write fully to Dr. Pierce
what they would shrink from telling to
their local physician. The local physician
is pretty sure to say that he cannot do
anything without an examination" DR..
Pierce holds that these distasteful exam
nations are generally needless, and that
no woman, except in rare cases, should
submit to them.

ONE PAINTERS HAPPY LIFE.
Mind Of William Blake Filled With

Mind Of William Blake Filled With
Lofty Thoughts.
William Blake, the poet and paint
er, whose delicate and mystical work,
both in words and on canvas, was
quite unlike that of any other man,
had singularly happy life. 1t was
full Of encouragement and greatly
cramped by poverty, but Of this no
seemed to take no account. His mind
was always filled with lofty and beau
tiful thoughts, and this world seemed
to him but the entrance to a nobler
state of existence.
One day, when he was an old man, =
little girl was brought to him. He
looked at her tenderly, stroked her
long 'curls, and said:
my child, may God make this world
as beautiful to you as 1t has been to
me-"
He had not been we'll for long
time before his death. When his old
friend, the artist Flaxman, died, Blake
said:
II thought I should go first can.
not think of death as more than going
out of one room into another"
A little mre than year after that
he died. On the day of his death he
composed and uttered songs in praise
of God, SO sweet that his wife, as she
stood by, was enraptured by them.

are not mine. No, they are not

The Thrifty japanese.

Japan has forty-seven postal savings
banks, in which, May 81 last, there
was 45S,995,e45 yen ($229, ATS, 1927 on
deposit. Since the war began these
deposits have increased by 6,302,504
yen ($2,651 ,252), deposited by 543,264
persons. This vast deposit by the
general run Of Japan's population
would seem to explain the ease with
which each war loan is subscribed
many times over when 1t is offered
for home subscription. Between April,
1903, and September, 1904. the num-
Der of depositors increased from
2,934,3S8 to 4,181,293. This Is prac-
tical demonstration of the proverbial
Japanese thrift.

kRUGER's MESSAGE TO RoERs.
Significance In Honors Paid to the
Dead Leader.

Dead Leader.
I The body of Paul Kruger was laid
to rest in Pretoria on Friday. Beers
Of all factions, those who from the
FIRST supported Krugerism as well as
those who did not; commanders OF
Kruger's armies, and those who served
in the ranks; Englishmen who fought
against Kruger and the British govern
ment that overwhelmed him, all par
ticipated in the ceremony at the grave
Of "the lion of the Transvaal."
The most notable tribute paid the
Boer leader who organized resistance
to British encroachment was the firing
Of a salute Of twenty-on guns by the
order of the sovereign of the British
empire. Under this order the former
president of the South African repub-
lie received the salute that would
have been fired over his grve by his
own people had he died in Office and at
the zenith Of his power.
This recognition by the conquering
nation of the rank and the services OF
the leader of a conquered people must
have been very grateful not only to
Gen. Botha and his generals, but to
all of the humber followers of the
Boer president.
In view of the fact that Krugerism
Is a factor in the transitional struggle
in the Transvaal, the action Of King
Edward in ordering the salute fred
over the grave Of Kruger was not only
gracious, but polite. No one has
clearly defined what Krugerism is in
It's application to the present situation
in South Africa, but If Paul Kruger's
last message to his people urging
them to preserve their national spirit
Is Krugerism then it must be dealt
with in the spirit Of the treaty Of
peace signed May 81, 1902.
In that treaty the fighting Boer
generals surrendered on the promise
that their people should be given or
should retain representative institu-
tons. The Boer contention was that
the Beers should retain their language
and should constitute self-governing
Boer state under British sovereignty.
This is not inconsistent with Kruger's
last message to preserve their nation.

Soldiers Sing on the March.


Music, says the London Globe, has
always played great part in fighting
and Lord Wolseley declares that
troops that sing as they march will
not only reach their destination more
quickly, and in better fighting condi-
ton than those who march in silence,
but inspired by the music and words
of national songs will feel that self
confidence which is the mother Of vic
tory. In the Japanese army it is the
custom for the soldiers to sing as
they go into battle and rush to the
charge. The practice was remarked
during the operations Of the allied
Powers against Pekin. Their favorite
song is the 'Kimi Gayo," or national
anthem, which has been Englished as
follows:
May our lords dominion last
Till a thousand years have passed
Twice four thousand time o'ertold,
Firm as changeless rock, earth rooted,
Moss Of ages uncomputed.
In the Russian army tests were
made few years ago to find the value
of marching songs, and the results
so confirmed Lord Wolseley's dictum
that the regulations now decree that
regiments on march and in advancing
to charge shall sing national songs.

STRANGE Political FrIendshIps.

The death Of Hugh Mclaughlin, for
many years Democratic boss of Brook

Ward Beecher were very warm,
friends, though the paths in life of the
two men were as widely apart as they
could well be. Another curious friend
ship was that which long existed be-
tween President Garfield and John
Morrissey, the prize fighter, gambler
and congressman. The late Senator
Hoar had a warm place in his heart
for Senator ben" Tillman, whom he
regarded as man whose great natural
ability was overshadowed by frequent
bursts Of passion.
