Conference OF Teachers

State Superintendent of Educa.
ton, DR.. M. B. Stephens, expects
to be at the Elkton High school on
Friday, May Z, at 10 a. M, to
meet our white teachers and dis.
cuss the curriculum which goes
into effect at the beginning of the
next school year. Teachers are
expected to study carefully the
entire grade work as outlined in
the curriculum given, in the last
State By Laws. Teachers should
know the requirements of the or.
dinary course of study before enter
ing upon the work of teaching. A
teacher must know the work
of the grades which are to fol.
low or she can not do her work
effectively. In the early part OF
the course myths, fairly stories,
biographies, etc., are introduced
for purpose, as the beginning for
the study of history later on, and
this work cannot be given in the
best way unless the teacher can see
the relation or connection with the
study of history after the primary
work has been completed. The
teacher should study not only the
relationship of one grade with the
next in the new curriculum but
should compare each grade with
the corresponding one in the old,
and above all things should bring
copies of the old and the new cur
riculums with them to the meeting.

County Supt.

HARRY THAW|
Still TRYING
A Hundred Curious Women Were on
Hand When Court Opened to
Catch Glimpse OF the
Fair Evelyn.
JEROME ON THE STAND
A Rumor that He Would be Called AS
A Witness in Order to Prove
That White Was as Black
as Painted.

WHITE PLAINS, Aug. "A hundred
curious women packed the court today
expecting to see Evelyn take the
stand when Jerome began presenting
the states side. Thaw, as confident
as ever, appeared in court. 1t is un-
derstood that if he is sent back to
Matteawan Thaw and his attorney are
determined that another habeas corpus
proceedings will be instituted within a
snort time. 1t is rumored at the
court house tnat Attorney Morschaus-
er will put Jerome on the
stand in an effort to make
him admit that White was guilty Of
the crimes again young girls as Thaw
alleged. Such a move, If successful,
would strengthen Thaw's case.
Thaw seemed brighter this morning.
Jerome continued reading the testi-
nlony of the former trial opening with
the testimony Of Katherine O'Neill,
Thaw's nurse when he was child.
Jerome also read Thaw's mothers tes-
timony giving his boyhood mental and
physical characteristics and outlining
the mental history of the family on
both sides. All this testimony is ten
dered as an established predisposition
towards mental disorders.
Jerome plunged into the testimony
Of Evelyn describing Thaw's conduct
when she told of Whites treatment
after Thaw had asked her to marry
him in Paris. Jerome paid attention
to her story Of the attempt by Thaw
to suicide in Paris and HIS conduct
when he killed White. Jerome told
the names of number OF witnesses
of the shooting or who saw him at
the coroner's court, all who said he
appeared irrational. He read the re-
port of the lunacy commission.
