leave to say that it feels these things
to have been accomplished: In the first
place, greater interest in the improve
ment of the whole community, an active
personal effort to realize in the fullest
degree the true value of the motto of this
association, For the good of the whole
community More than this. we have
seen neighborhood rivalry of the best
kind, which has resulted in garden spots
that are nuclei for a wider spreading
civic beauty. Examples of these beauty
spots are to be seen on 22d street be-
tween Kearney and Lawrence. on Jack
son street between 18th and GOTH 18th
and Fort drive, between Brentwood road
and Fort drive. These should spread
till their edges lap over. and our whole

enviable reputation and will attract the
kind of neighbors we want

Plan TO SEND POLICE
AFTER SCHOOL TRUANTS
Proposition Made That Off,
GERS Make Calls at Homes of
Offending Youngsters.

There is trouble ahead for truants IL a
plan which the board of education is
working on today goes into effect. 1t is
no more or less than sending the police
after the bad boys, even to the homes of
the delinquents. Secretary Hine is pre-
pairing a formal request to be sent to the
Commissioners today outlining a method
of proposed cooperation whereby the po-
liceman on the beat will knock at the
door of the truant's home just at that
the family is at home After the police
man reminds father that sonny Is play
ing hockey the board takes 1t for grant
ed that the unofficial but effective shin
gle method of compulsory education may
get in its good work.
Mrs. Edna Keene Bushee, chief attend
ance officer of the public schools. origi-
mated the plan. as far as the boards pres
ent action Is concerned. and Mr.. Stuart
presented a letter to the board yesterday
afternoon fully indorsing Mrs. Bushee IN
her ideas.
The plan will work out in such fashion
that when the family is gathered around
the evening lamp the coup will be ac-
complished. Father will be reading the
base ball scores. Mother will be knitting,
perhaps. Sister will be waiting for her
beau to come, and that bad truant. with
his angel face. will be telling them all
just what he learned in school that day
What a noble son. think the parents
He'll surely get a medal or be senator
when he grows up.
Heavy Footstep Is Heard.
Suddenly a heavy footstep resounds
from without. The bell rings. 1t is too
heavy a sound for that delicate shrinking
90 cic r. ho
the fellow who comes to collect for the
milk Father goes to the door
The members of the family within stop
their occupations TO listen with curiosity.
At the first sound. wonder overtakes the
sinks through the f1oor-hguratively
speaking. For this is what he hears:
Mister Jones? Sure, 1 thought so.
Dye know what your son was doin' to-
day."
MY son? Oh, yes, he was at school to-
day. He learned the boundaries Of Vene-
zuela. He had one hundred new words
in his spelling lesson. He started a chair
in the carpenter school. He got excellent
in all his lessons
Hes been kiddin' We, Mister JONES'
Your son was swimming in James Crick
canal. He's got TIL record fer tn longest
underwater swim in all South Washing
ton. I just thought I'd tell you. They
got the goods on him. The law must be
Obeyed. Better take him to school your
self tomorrow morning."
That is ALL Except that in the house.
hold that evening there will perhaps be
the sound of grief And one more leader
of the gang will be torn from his COM
rades and made, willy nilly, to really learn
the boundaries of Venezuela and other
academic subjects.
Will 1T work or not? The school people
say 1t will. If the police take an active
interest. The matter will be referred to
the police department by the Commission
ers. and on Maj. Sylvester rests the de-
ciSiOn.
