Lansing.-Seven hundred delegates
attended the annual state convention
of the Michigan Sunday School asso-

addresses by visiting clergymen and
Sunday school workers.
At the First Presbyterian church
Rev. l.. e. Lovejoy OF the Detroit
housing committee made a stirring
plea for better understanding or and
care of children, declaring that many
parents love their children. but doom
them because they do not understand
them. He would tell them the truth
always, even to sex hygiene, for the
child was as much entitled to know
what could be taught 1t as an adult.

Extends Time TIL December.

Governor Osborn has extended the
time for the commission, of tax
inquiry to make its report until
December 1. SO those corporation rep
resentatives who pleaded for more
time in which to prepare to discuss
the corporate excess tax with the
commission will have no excuse for
failing to appear II they really desire
to take up the matter.
In view of the developments at the
only hearing held, members of the
commission are inclined to believe
there will be but few attacks to con-
trovert their statements that there is
large amount of property grossly
underyalued for taxation purposes
and that corporations are at the head
OF this list. The commission Is not
saying so, but the fact Is that accord
ing to the impressions the members
have been given, they are firmly of
the opinion that while the corpora
tionists will raise a whole lot of side
Issues and other issues, when 1t
comes down to hard pan the finan-
ciers will have to admit that corpora
ton business has been looking up in
Michigan for number Of years and
at the same time other property has
been providing most of the money
which supports the machinery of the
government.
Discussing the situation and the
statements made, Commissioner p. H.
Kelley seemed strongly imbued with
the idea that the main issue, the nub
Of the commissions case, is what he
termed the present inequality of bur-
den Of taxes, asserting with emphasis
that so long as the powerful men
the wealthy. influential men of COM
munity-are on the tax rolls at 10,
IL or 10 per cent, its a pretty mean,
cowardly government that forces the
laboring man to pay taxes on 80 per
cent. of the value Of his home"

Reign of Terror in Tripoli.

Steamer passengers arriving from
Tripoli describe the situation there
as reign of terror. Strong military
patrols are continually conducting
rigorous house-to-house searches, and
on the smallest pretense summary
punishment is melted out. Many VIC
tins have been shot in their own
houses and such is the absence of
any attempt to discriminate between
friend and foe that many foreigners
have taken refuge in their consulates.

Michigan Teachers Meet.

Luther l.. Wright, state superin-
tendent Of public instruction, fired
the opening gun of the Michigan
meeting of the county normal school
teachers held In Detroit.
Mr.. Wright had some interesting
and moderately radical things to say.
He took the position that in teaching
arithmetic to children 1t must be re-
membered that thought Is one thing
and process another, and that young
children have no reasoning powers.
Consequently the teaching process
should be automatic and oral. He
cited a school in which no pupil is al
lowed to use pencil and paper In the
study of arithmetic until he reaches
the seventh grade.
THE result of the ordinary methods
In vogue Is that after going through
eight grades the child knows nothing
but arithmetic" said Mr.. Wright.
This Is a complaint that we receive
from colleges all over the country"
With an enrolment of over 1000,
the fifty-ninth annual meeting OF the
Michigan State Teachers association
will be by over 1000 the largest meet
ing ever held by the organization and
may eclipse in numbers the yearly
sessions of the National Educational
association. For some years the
Michigan organization has been the
largest state association in the coun-
FRY nd re In hn net

Reception bureaus were established
at the railway stations and high
school students were stationed there
as guides.
Nearly 1000 applications have been
received by those in charge for tick
cts to the Pasquali concert in Light
Guard armory and Wayne pavilion,
and the seating capacity having been
exhausted, standing room tickets
alone remained.
A few of the more prominent edu-
Gators Of the state arrived In the
city. Some OF them were: l.. II.
Jones, president of the Ypsilanti Nor

intendent of public instruction; G. Il.

Slow to Pay Taxes.

Slow to Pay Taxes.
There is still no indication that own
ers of Michigan mortgages are dis
posed to crowd up to the counter to
pay the specific tax on these securi-
ties, as provided in the law passed by
the last legislature. The state has re-
ceived $6,770.25 In taxes on $2,741,-
7O4.35 In mortgages; the counties have
secured an equal sum, making the
total tax paid in, $13,5405O, while IL
these securities had been taxed as
they were previously the tax would
amount to about $4,000, and this
amount would be collected annually,
while the other amount is collected
but once.
1t is the opinion or state officers
that only owners of the mortgages
which are on record have paid in the
tax as provided for the mortgages
now in effect. 1t Is believed that pos
SCISSORS of unrecorded mortgages are
not bringing them out for the purpose
of paying the tax, as there is I'M
doubtedly more than S2,700,000 in
mortgages in effect in the state at
