London, Nov. 15.-Parliament re-
assembled today and transacted only
routine business. although many
members declare the country is on
the eve of a political upheaval. Pre-
mier Asquith is expected tonight and
will announce the full program of the
liberals and it is expected he will an
nounce that he Will call for a disso-
luton of parliament November 23rd
after the passage of urgent meas
ures. 1t is predicted he will order
a general election in December.
Out of respect to the memory Of
the late King Edward and in defer
ence to the new monarch, a pitched
battle between the warning factions
had apparently been averted for
time when the two houses reconven-
ed today. Since the adjournment Of
Parliament early in August, leading
men in both of the principal British
parties have held many conferences,
with a view of postponing the con-
troversy over the status OF the house
of lords. in order that King Georges
coronation year may not be marked
by the fierce warfare that would GER
tainly accompany an election at this
time. 1t is generally believed that
the negotiations have been successful,
but il is evident today that the house
of commons is akin to powder mag
azine, and that a spark may yet set
it off.
Premier Asquith is expected to do
his part toward averting hostilities
III. Tate -
placated it is expected. by proposals.
having the endorsement of both lib
eral and unionist leaders, for .
scheme Of federal home rule which
will be necessary to make such q
proposal effective, and the govern
ment will be powerless to carry out
such a policy without unionist sup-
port. There is many a slip between
the cup and the lip, and 1t may yet
be found that a general election in
December will be the only way out of
the difficulty. In that case, it is GER
tain that the campaign would be the
fieroest in the history of England and
would arouse animosrties that would
embroil the whole nation and make
the coronation of King George a sec
ondary matter.
The suffragettes were active today
and they have planned daily mani
festations, in the hope of forcing ac-
ton on the woman's suffrage bill. This
measure was brought up at the last
session and, after a preliminary dis
cussion more facetious than earnest,
was buried in a committee of the
whole.
If the leaders succeed in smother
ing the fires for the present, it will
only mean that the conflagration will
later break out with greater violence.
The hatred of the house of lords Is
daily gaining in volume and the days
OF that institution, as at present con-
stituted and win its present powers,
are surely numbered. The reign OF
King George promises to be an ex-
citing and memorable one.

Superintendent in This Respect
Says Pupils Cannot Hope to
Make Rapid Progress.
GOOD PURPOSE is SERVED
IN GREAT MANY INSTANCES

sistance Is Desirable.

The summer school question for pupils
below the high school Is considered to
some extent by City Superintendent OF
Schools u. II. Christensen in his annual
report, The superintendent is Of the
opinion that under certain conditions the
summer school Is a good thing. but he
emphasizes the fact that pupils cannot
expect TO do as much in a few weeks
in summer school as they can during
an entire semester in the public schools,
That, he says. is absolutely impossible
and the expectation OF such rapid prog
ross on the part OF the pupil or the
parent only leads to disappolntment IN IN
relation TO the matter the report OF the
superintendent has the following:
Endeavor Is Creditable.
For several years the Y NJ. {. A. has
maintained an efficiently organized sum
mer school for children OF elementary
grade, who for special reasons were anN-
ious either TO qualify themselves Ior a

For the second group the school has
served a commendabie purpose and TO
those In the first group much help mas
been rendered where the endeavor has
not been TO cover the work OF an entire
semester during the vacation PERIOD, IN
the latter case the effect must be de-
pressing rather than uplifting. The fact
must not be overlooked that time Tor
assimilation is required and II is not SUI
flcient for the pupil merely TO pass over
the prescribed work without regard TO
the time element.
Some May Do Well.
Experience shows that the work pre-
scribed for n semester requires the al
lotted time from the average child oil

duration and very creditabiy meet re-
quirements for promotion. For them.
and for the ones needing help In one or
two subjects In the class TO whlch tney
belong. the vacation school renders SUD-
stantial aid.
'T believe. however. that few, II any,
pupils below the grammar department
should he encouraged TO attend school
during the summer vacation,
