FATHER DEAD, DYING n. TIER CLINICS TO EXISTENCE UNTIL
 HER BABY IS GIVEN 4 HOME
Little "Want Ad' Tells the Story of This Tragedy Chance for Kind hearted Couple to Adopt Beauti full Baby Girl and Gladden a Dying Womans Mo ments.

Who wants to adopt a beautiful baby girl? Two years old. Address 1S6 Spruce St., Door number 12, sec- )nd floor.
 The foregoing want ad' contains within it's brief lines as pathetic a story, as much of the tragedy Of life, as any grandiloquent novelist ever succeeded in crowding into his master piece of fiction.
 The facts are simply these:,. the father is dead, the mother is dying and before her frafl hold on life has entirely relaxed she wants to see the darling of her heart in safe keep ing.
 Every thought of her waning life is centered upon this desire; she is de- termfned to fight against her disease and retain her hold on existence un- til with her own eyes she sees her baby girl placed in the hands of someone whom she can trust for the future.
 Then this weary mother will lay her head on the pillow for the last long

FOX DEMANDS ARREST OF 6.
 A. GOODWIN

E New Haven, Nov. 2e-George L. Fox, yesterday sent letters to City Attorney Dickinson of Hartford and States At torney Alcorn of Hartford County de- manding that they prosecute Charles A. Goodwin, recently the Republican candidate for Governor of Connecti- cut.
 MT. Fox asserts that in his written Goodwin has furnished complete evil dence that he violated the Corrupt Practices Act.
 MT. Fox said that an amazing item of expense included in the report made in behalf of MT. Goodwin was for the work of ''canvassers." MT. Fox declared that this undoubtedly con- stituted violation of the Corrupt Practices Act.''
 MT. Fox also alluded to the fact that the amount paid for MT. Good wins headquarters at the Allyn House was $1,2Oo. In his opinion this was also matter that should be in- vestigated.
 MT. Fox declares that in his opin- ion City Attorney Dickinson of Hart ford and States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn can convict both Treasurer Sperry of the Goodwin club and Can didate Goodwin too of violating the Corrupt Practices Acts upon fully a dozen counts. Says MT. Fox:
 T should judge that <ne.ther Mir. Sperry nor Mir Goodwin looked at the law t- see what expenses were legal and what were not, although I sent to, Mir. Goodwin as we'll as to all can- didates my four page pamphlet which made it plain. There are five odd items for canvassing before the con- vention in sums varying from $25 to s75. all of which any judge on the Superior court bench would declare il- legal.''
 MT. Fox will sail for England We'd nesday to take part in the election contests there. His first speech will be at Manchester. He is slated to talk against BOnar Law, a Tory-protection- ist. MT. Fox is for the Liberals.
 Asked if he had demanded that States Attorney Alcorn proceed against MT. Lake. MT. Fox said he had de- manded that action be taken against all who had violated the law
 That he is enjoying immensely his where he is hunting. and that he haT shot a few pheasants. was all the re- ply vouchsafed Saturday by Charles A. Goodwin. late Republican candidate for Governor. when asked regarding charges made against him by MT. Fox.
 Reached by long distance telephone at Fishers Island Inn MT. Goodwin declared he had not seen copies of the criticism of his election expense ac- count and would not care to be quoted on the verbal abstracts furnished to him.
 MT. Fox is determined that there shall be prosecutions brought and will take the matter up as soon as he re- turns from abroad if no action is taken before his return.

SIZE OF SCHOOL
BOARDS.

The proposed new school code has
occasioned some discussion as to the
size of school boards and the general
opinion in the smaller districts is in
favor of smaller and odd number
1t was found last year that there
were 100 deadlocks and in so cases
boards were dismissed by the courts
and new boards appointed. Among
county and city superintendent a
large majority favor 8 as the number
Of the board. OF one hundred and
forty two superintendents SS favored
5 while the others varied from to 2
the city superintendents favoring
the larger number. AS to length of
term, thirty favored 8 years, IS fav-
ored 5 years and IL seven years.
This shows large preponderance of
opinion in favor of board composed
of five members and elected for a
term of five years. Some qualifica-
tions Of members of the board are
noted. He should have sufficient
business service and training and be
honest and trustworthy.
He should have sufficient educa.
tion to appreciate the value of an ed
ucation to every child and be able to
exercise a discerning judgment be-
tween the harmful and helpful in a
system of instruction. The school
law defines the qualifications as be-
ing moral, of unquestioned integrity,
and literally educated. Schools
should be kept in advance OF the
community, and this cannot be done
by men who say the schools are as
good as the people desire.
Partisanship and politics should be
excluded in selecting members of the
board, In short good school direc
tor should have business ability,
should have a secondary or college
education, good moral character,
progressive attitude of mind, oour-
age to do right, studious attitude
towards school systems, freedom
from party allegiance, and an unsel
fish and benevolent spirit
