OUTDOOR SCHOOLS
Medical Director Urges Change
for Weak and Poorly
NOurished Pupils
Especial Dispatch to The Call


OAKLAND. Feb S.-Outdoor schools
for the weak and poorly nourished pub
lie school children of Oakland may be
established by the board of education.
These were recommended by DR., n. X.
Foster the medical director. tonight in
detailed report on the condition of
the pupils of the city, and on motion
of DIR. A. S. Kelley. one of the directors,
the matter was placed in the hands of
the committee on finance and building
sites for consideration.
Doctor Foster. in his report, speak
ing of the average health in the de-
partment said:
"Of 1900 children examined we found
6S, or per cent, suffering from malnu-
triton to degree that decidedly re-
tards them in school work, and all are
likely candidates for tuberculosis. This
does not take into account very many
more who are suffering from want of
proper nutrition to a lesser degree.
Doctor Foster explained that during
the fall term of 1909 he and his assist
ants had found it impossible to start
the health work by examining every
pupil Hence he had the teachers select
such pupils as seemed in need of med
fcal attention. By this means nearly
1900 pupils were brought under obser-
vation. OF that number more than 200
were found to be not serious. Six pu-
pills were found who suffered from six
defects, and more than a dozen who
suffered from five defects. The number
of pupils whose scholarship is impaired
by defects of health or physique is
given as 1,2S2.

attempted to light fire in the stove,
mistaking il for kerosene, Mrs John W.
Striker, wife of the former superin-
tendent of streets of this city, saved her
life today by, rushing to the bathroom,
where she jumped into a tub of water
Her screams attracted the attention of
her husband and daughter, Mrs. Lyon.
Mrs Striker now lies at the Roosevelt

DIR. H. n. Rowell, the attending physi-

shock.

morning to light the kitchen fire shortly
before o'clock. The wood failed to
burn easily, and to kindle the blaze she
procured can of gasoline that she
mistook for kerosene.
When the gasoline came into contact
with the fire it exploded, the fiery liquid
being scattered over Mrs. Strikers
clothing. Her quickness of mind, how
ever, saved her life for the flames were
extinguished by the water in the tub
before she was fatally burned
Her hair was burned off, however,
and her arms, breast and head badly
scared Pneumonia is the only compli-

DfSfRTER ESCAPES
A FORGERY TRIAL
Harry E. McAllister, Who Left
Army to Gain Woman, Re-
turns in Custody

BERK ELEY, Feb. S.-Harry f. Nc
Allister, deserter from the army and
scion of a wealthy Baltimore family,
has been relieved of the crime of for
gerry on the South Berkeley bank and
has been turned over to the army
authorities to answer for departing
without permission. McAllister left the
army to marry a Monterey girl, and he
was thought by the police to have COM
mitted forgery to raise the necessary
cash to secure marriage license.
First Sergeant Cohn of the company
of which McAllister was a member also
loved the girl, and McAllister saw that
his only chance was to take French
leave and secure a license. Lack of
funds, however, prevented him from
carrying out his purpose, and he was
shortly afterward arrested and booked
here for forging a check on the South
Berkeley bank
Ira Currier, the supposed maker of
the check, with whom McAlIister
formerly lived. refused to prosecute
the young man and the case has been
dropped.
McAllister is said to be the son of
the superintendent of public works of
the city of Baltimore, where he former
~ attended college. He left his books
suddenly for some cause which he re-
fuses to divulge and enlisted in the
coast artillery.

fAVORS STUDY OF
CITY BY PUPILS.
Superintendent Says the School
Children Lack knowledge
of Home Town

ALAMEDA, Feb. S.-This city, it's
history, geography, government. re-
sources and commercial and residential
advantages will be incorporated in the
course of study in the public schools If
the plan of School superintendent viii
c. Wood is approved and put into effect
by the board of education.
1T is remarkable how little the school
children and, for that matter, their ell
ders, really know about Alameda" said
superintendent Wood. TT is generally
known that we live on an island and
that Alameda has grown rapidly within
the last few years. There are very few,
however, young or old, who are posted
on the early history of Alameda. There
are but few who know all of the streets
of the city. We find many pupils of ad
vanced age who are not familiar with
the different routes of street and rail-
road transportation in Alameda. There
is also noticeable lack of knowledge
concerning the form and operation of
our city government.
In my opinion, pupils should be given
an opportunity to learn all they can
about-their home town.

It was fear OF suicide that prompted
the son to go 10 the police. He knew
his mother was broken in health and

UNDERTAKERS AFTER
THEIR PAY IN ADVANCE
Odd New Years Custom Is
Started in France

An appellant of a novel kind for
New Year gifts has made his appear
ance at Montpelier. We should say
appellants for it seems that\t he
undertakers' men of that district
possess logical minds. They cannot re-
ceive gifts from those for whom they
have performed services. 1t is GUS
tomary for workpeople to receive such.
Therefore the undertakers' men have
been soliciting from those to whom
they have rendered no services, but
who will undoubtedly require them
sooner or later. The theater of opera
tions has been at the hotels, so to use
the expression of Paris contemporary,
it is "Petrenne par anticipation" We
are not told what success has followed
this enterprise, but it is certainly an
moving to be asked to reward services
which no one wishes performed as far
as be himself is concerned

RECALLS EPISODES
OF EARLY DAYS
Attorney Seeks to Confuse Cap.
tain Neville by AllusiOns
to Past

OAKLAND, Feb. S.-Men and women
the old Palace hotel of San Francisco
were alluded to in the police court
this morning by Attorney a. L. Frick
in his cross examination of Captain
w. A. Neville, the owner of the Raw
hide mine, during the preliminary ex-
animation of Charles Wade, an accused
pickpocket Wade, who is charged
Neville of diamond stud at the Oak
land mole recently, was held for trial
and his bail was set at $4,000.
Attorney Frick, counsel for Wade,
tried to confuse the sturdy old mining
capitalist by raking UP the past. First
he surprised the court after Neville
had described the robbery by asking
suddenly if the witness knew Lucy
Stone. Neville replied that he may have
known her, then added that she is not
living now, to his knowledge. Objec-
tion was sustained, and question and
answer were stricken from the record.
Then Frick asked about Marion
Azohedrin. Neville evasively replied
that Azohedrin is dead. Again were
the query and reply expunged from the
record of the proceedings.
Neville and Frick declined to dis
cuss the allusions to Palace hotel oc-
currences But the court attaches have
been informed that Lucy Stone once
sued Neville years ago for maintenance
as his wife. but that the mining man
disproved the plaintiffs assertions. The
Azohedrin affair. according to the gos-
sips, was a duel. fought in the old
Palace lobby, Neville and his opponent
having been partners in mining deals.
The rest of the testimony at the
hearing was perfunctory, Wades con-
nection being shown by several wit
neSSeS.
