". HAMMOND SCHOOLS

City This Term
With
GREAT FLOURISH OF TRUMPETS
Have Been In Use In Village Across
State Line For a
Year.
GREAT FLOURISH OF TRUMPETS

To prove that the world do move"
faster in some respects in West Ranf-
mond than in its naughty neighbor to
the northwest; namely. the city of Chi
cago was proven this morning when
superintendent Deaver ,of the West
Hammond schools informed THE TIMES
that the text books which were referred
to in TINES editorial yesterday and
which were just introduced into the
Chicago schools this term, to take the
place of physiologies heretofore used in
the elementary grades, were already in
use in West Hammond.
I'VE have for year been using two
of the series" which 1 understand, to be
what is known as the Gulick SERIES"
said Mr.. Deaver, for a year. So sue
cessful have they proven that this year
we introduced the entire series into the
village schools. The series comprises
five books. The first is on good
health the second on emergencies,
the third deals with town and city, the
fourth the Body at Work and the fifth
The Control of Body and Mind
The books are devoted quite extern
sively to health sermons, so written as
to make them attractive to the i'm
pressionable minds of the young pupils.
They are in the form of jingles for
, younger pupils, giving incidents of ev-
eryday occurrence and practical sug-
gestions for safeguarding life and
limb in the daily rush of city life. The
Chicago Inter-Ocean says of them:
Children will be instructed in
the proper method of getting on
and off street cars and warned
against hanging on cars for a
stolen ride. Danger of fooling with
| firearms of very kind will be drill
ed into the pupils thoroughly and
stories of accidents read to them
showing fatal results of careless
ness with pistols and guns The
! children will be told to stand on
a street corner and count the num-
| ber of people who get on and off
cars the wrong way and thus the
lesson will be impressed upon
youthful minds more strongly than
by try textbook on Hygiene and
Anatomy.
The new books are full of illus
trations, which vivfy the lessons
set forth in the text matter. For
instance. under a picture OF a long
train of cars putting ahead at full
steam are these words A man
who drinks is not allowed to be an
engineer A picture of a runt'
chicken and a fat. plump fowl is
described thus: The smaller was
given small doses of alcohol The
books conduct strong crusade
against the habit of chewing tobac-
CO."

CROWN POINT BOY
DEAD IN NEBRASKA
Left County Seat for West
: ern Trip-Found in a
Railroad Station.

Crown Point, Ind, Sept. 10.-The sad
news reached the relatives of Henry
Biegel, a well known Crown Point
young man, yesterday. that he had been
found dead in the railroad station at
Rosalie. Neb Only meagre reports
could be obtained yesterday as to the
cause of his sudden death, and from
the circumstances it is feared that he
met with foul play during the evening.
Postal cards were received from him,
written on Thursday noon, by his rel
atives here and nothing denotes that
he was sick. Biegel, who is about 35
years of age, started on August 81 for
a pleasure trip through the western
states and is said to have had about
$500 on his person when he left Crown
Point. He intended to go to Denver
Colo, and kept his people Informed
here as to his whereabouts and not
until the tragic news reached them
yesterday were they aware of his un-
timely end. His brother, Charles Bieg-
ell. and Henry Monk left yesterday fol-
Rasile, Neb., in an effort to ascertain
the cause of his death. The body will
be brought here for burial.

of other wholesome minds have found
a veritable mine of moral thought and

confuted the vulgar minds who have
endeavored to deny them. Miss Glyn
has made a powerful love tragedy out
of her book which enlists the sympathy
