A PHILADELPHIA IDEA.
How an Ingenious Student Avoided .
Tardy Mark.

A certain student at the Central,
high school hit upon brilliant Idea
to escape punishment for lateness. II
Is an established rule at the institu.
ton to detain all pupils one hour after
regular dismissal for each case Of
lateness, and II the same student is
late three times In one month he IL
liable to suspension for one day. un
less he II able to furnish reasonable
excuse. A suspension carries with n
forfeiture Of exemptions in four and
sometimes five studies. The student
In question, through some unavoida
BILE delay. was late twice in one
month. While going to school one
morning, the car In which he rode was
held up for about 15 minutes at Wash
ington avenue by the freight trains
Fearing suspension through his chron
ic lateness tho student tore a leaf
from his notebook and asked his fel.
low passengers to afiix their sigma.
lures to a note which declared that
he was detained by the railroad cars.
6e arrived at school several minutes
late, but on presentation of his note.
signed with 20 names, he was excused

the fact that life insurance is more
than a private business. that life In
surance trustees are public servants,
charged at once with the obligations
Of public service and with the respon-
sibilities that attach to a going buyi-
ness which at the same time must bo

He also realizes that similar respon-
sibilities rest upon the officers Of the
company. Il understand" he says.
