EDUCATIONAL
Against ceIibate Teachers.

In his latest lecture on the training
OF girls for family life Professor Earl
Barnes, the university extension lee
turer, took strong ground against the
prevailing tendency of limiting our
public school teaching force to CELL
bates He Insisted that this must be
changed and that married men and
women should be placed in charge if
humanistic principles of family life
are to be instilled. He particularly
scored the modern exclusively femi-
nine colleges, which, he said, were pre-
pairing women to live apart from men,
Whole College on Strike.
Almost the entire student body Of the
New York university refused to attend
lessons because the faculty had sus-
pended the captain Of the crew on ac-
count of his part in ducking recalci-
trant freshman In the campus fountain.
This student had made himself UNI
popular by refusing to be hazed and
using a revolver and a detective to
protect himself. Finally the recalci-
trant, whose name is Bloch, was
brought to terms and signed an agree
ment to submit to whatever punish
ment the students might dictate, but
this did not relieve the crew captain
from suspension.
Wyomins's President Dismissed.
The trustees of the University of
Wyoming have removed President f.

PUTTING up new GARAGE
AUTO LIVERY COMPANY HAS
NEED FOR MORE ROOM.
Enlarged Business Requires Seventy.
Five Machines and Sixty
Chauffeurs.

The Auto Livery Company. which has
built up a prosperous business in Wash
ington by giving its patrons what they
have wanted for the past eight years.
has branched out and Is now putting up
garage to accommodate seventy-nve
machines and sixty chaufeurs.
The Auto Livery Company has estab-
Iished Offices In the Willard, the Raleigh
and the Arlington. and has a system OF
private telephones by which it can be
reached and can give the quickest ser
vice day or night. 1t now has about
thirty machines in commission. but when
the new garage is completed It Will have
seventy-five In use, and II past success
is any indication 1t probably will have
the most Of them In use nearly all the
time.
Washington is essentially a city for that
sort of business. Its broad. smooth
streets and its many handsome public
buildings make 1t q place that attracts
many visitors. and when they come they
want to get around and see the sights
least expenditure Of trouble and money.
The taxicab service Of the company Is
designed to meet this need.
There will be q big force of men con-
there will be sleeping accommodations
for them there as we'll as general
reading and assembly room, baths and
similar modern comforts. The COM
pany will be able to extend to its patrons
all the facilities and more than they
could expect from a similar institution
in any other city.
The company has been at considerable
trouble to find just the sort OF chauf-
feurs it wanted and has had in a number
of cases to import men from New York
and Chicago. Some Of them are men with
records for speed and endurance tests.
and while there cannot naturally be any
speeding on Washington streets under po-
lice regulations. this at least insures pa
irons of the company that they are going
to get good men who know their machines
and know how to handle them.
1t has been difficult always to give
patrons the prompt service that ooth
patrons and management would like, Tor
when q man wants q cab he either wants
it in a hurry or he wants to know that
it will be at particular spot at speci-
fed minute. To this end 1t has been
necessary to constantly keep the supply
Of machines ahead Of the immediate de-
mand and by private telephones and
stands arranged at the principal hotels
to keep the cars always at the instant
disposal of the customer.
BY more than doubling the supply OF
machines the company intends II pos
sible to keep the supply ahead of the
demand. The men will be OF the same
competent sort that have always been
supplied. and every effort will be made
by the company to give prompt and EN-
cient service.

this 1t is able to pick up some remarka-
BILE bargains and being Of far-seeing dis
position 1T is willing to pass these good
things along to its customers.
Thus it happens that no matter what
you may want I'm the automobile line it
is safe plan to communicate first with
the Times Square Auto Company of New
York. They make a speciality of mail
order business and are prompt to fur
nish everything that one can want and to
give the same attention to a letter that
they do to a personal call.
At the present moment the company has
in stock twenty-five cars of standard
makes, all of them in first-class condition
both as to looks and running order. They
average about one-fifth OF the original
cost, and as a rule are of the 1907 model.
The company wants to do a big business
and to do il quick is the reason they are
willing to take small profits on Q big
annual turnover.

pie unwilling to believe that the little
runabout had come the distance its occu-
pants said it had. and that It was still
ready for several hundred miles more.
But the weather had improved a great
deal and the roads somewhat, and there
was very little difficulty on the run to
Philadelphia. Several days were spent
there demonstrating the car. and then the
run was made to Washington in easy
time.
Mr.. Bussey says he was surprised him
self at the performance Of the car He
adds, however. that he is confident the
runabout being turned out this year will
be capable Of even better things. as the
horsepower has been raised from SIX to
seven. In such q small car this makes a
material difference.
