PRINCIPALS FAVOR "GROUP
PLAN. IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Offers Chance for Both Bright
and Dull Pupils to Profit.

At a meeting of the Public School
Principals Round Table yesterday
in the Normal School, the question of
putting two grades in one room was
discussed from all viewpoints. Senti-
ment on the double grade question was
about evenly divided, with DR.. Addison
b.. Poland, city superintendent, and
stephen h. GilhIly, principal of the
Warren street School, holding out for
the feasibility Of the scheme. and Nor
rig Hamburger, OF the Bergen Street
school, and William DougaI, of the
Monmouth Street School, opposed to it.
Arthur G. Balloon, principal of the
Franklin School, was doubtful of the
schemes practicability.
Several of the principals. including
Charles II. Gleason. of the~ Summer
Avenue School; Mr.. Bamberger and Mr..
Balcom, said they We're in favor of
dividing a class in groups. because, as
Mr.. Gleason put it, this would afford
an advantage for the bright pupils who
could help themselves, and wouldn't
need much attention, and also aid the
weaker pupils. because of the greater
amount of time that might be spent on
them.
George w. Tomkins, vice-president of
the school board. made an address in

val which is to be. given by pupils
Preparations are now we'll under way

PLAYWRIGHT BARRIE ASKS
DIVORCE FROM HIS WIFE,
Amazed at Announce.
4 ment of Suit, i

NEW YORK, Oct. THE announce
ment from London that James M. Bar
RE, the playwright, had petitioned the
english courts for a divorce from his
wife. who was Miss Mary AnseIl. an
actress, has created much comment
here, where Mr.. Barrie and his plays
are well known. The idea of divorce in
connection with the author of "When
a Mans Single" seemed incongruous.
The wonderful grasp of feminine char
acter which Mr.. Barrie has shown in
his books and plays has always been
supposed to have been inspired in some
degree by his perfect agreement with
his wife. Such plays of his as ''What
Every Woman Knows" Indicated to the
critics that he had a most remarkable
grasp and understanding on the char
acter of women.
Charles Frohman. the manager who
produced most of Mr.. Barrels plays.
declared that Barrie's success with
characters for women was due to the
fact that he knew that when a woman
