WOULD Be Up TO DATE
CHIEF WAGNER WANTS MOTOR
DRIVEN FIRE ENGINE.
Question Whether 1t May Be Pur-
chased Put Up to Controller
of the Treasury.

Chief Wagner wants a motor driven IRE
)engine and believes he can get one out
of the appropriation for next year. which
item does not specify that il is TO he a
horse drawn vehicle. The Commissioners
make no objection to an automobile fire
engine, but have put the matter up TO the
controller of the Treasury, who will be
asked to decide whether or not the Dis
trict must stick TO horses. simply because
the appropriation act says nothing about
horses or automobiles either.
The fire department needs an automo-
bile fire engine for some of the suburban
districts where the horses have to make
long runs. An occasional fire breaks ont
so far from the nearest engine house that
the horses are nearly dead when they
reach there.
1t has happened. too. that long run
of this kind has resulted in good horses
being placed on the retired list and made
to haul cabbages at the workhouse farm
or to officiate in the shafts of disinfect-
ing service wagon.
Chief Wagner will have for his own
use an automobile instead of the we'll
known buggy in which he travels to fires.
l. and ninety days will be given the
manufacturer to furnish the machine. Il
will be built TO order, after the chiefs
design 1t will be- I'm addition to We

Room for Them All.

There will be a great effort to get every
one of these children into classrooms
next year. It is estimated that even If
all of them should make an appearance
next fall when school reOpens there would
be room for every one, with little
crowdng in some of the more populous
localities.
One of the reasons advanced for the
lack of interest among so many parents
is that there is not even yet enough vo-
cational training In the graded schoois.
The poorer anu more ignorant parents
frequently look on school as waste of
time unless they can be assured the chill
dren can be taught something that will
show in the pocket book, such as cook
ing. sewing carpenter work.

ON the other hand, the classroom
teacher has her hands pretty fun with
the work of actually teaching. although
she has done and will continue to do all
in her power to get the children into
school and to keep them there. am
convinced it is necessary for every good
citizen to cooperate with the school
organization In this vital matter.

pastors, asking If they are not willing
to do their share in this public service !;
to find out how many children in their
neighborhoOds are running loose with
out regard to the law compulsory

have not attended school this year. If

Thousands of Washington children be-
tween six and fourteen years of age not
attending school, in spite of the compul-
sorry education law, and not even regis
tered for school purposes. is the startling
information CLEANED by Surt. Stuart and
Asst. Supt. Bruce. The law which
has been framed to educate every child
in the District of Columbia is made
dead letter because of a lack of attend
ance officers, according to Asst. Supt.
Bruce Because of a strict attention 10
schoolroom duties, made sfricter this
year than ever before, teachers are not
able TO do the community work which
i'll past years has resulted in the round =
ing up of children who have escaped the
fine-tooth comb of the law.
Therefore. the teeth of the comb have
become broken. 1t does not gather up
the children in the courts and alleys and
oIt of the way places. To remedy this
situation an organized campaign has been
started to cover the entire District by
every possible means.

Workers in Campaign.

Ministers of churches. members of be-
nevolent societies, sociological workers
ard public-sprted people have been
drawn into the campaign. Their efforts
are all toward furnishing the schools with
information as to just where these little
citizens of school age, vet not on the
school rolls, are situated, and just now
many there are.
This volunteer census is not complete,
but 1900 children of school age and with
out school is called low figure. OF
course, the conditions mentioned are found
only where there are many poor and lg-
norant families. Especially marked are
these conditions among the coiored fam
lilies who live in courts and alleys.
Assistant Supt. Bruce has been working
among the colored people in the alleys
for some time past. He says he finds
neighborhoods all over the District with
hundreds of unschooled children OF school
age South Washington, Georgetown and
even Lee Droit Park are mentioned by HIM
as neighborhoods filled with such unen-
rolled children.
