NE W DEPAR TlNENT
Nv FREE SCHOOLS
To Look After Defective Chill
dren Urged by the
A+1 Mothers Club.

The Mothers Club of Park ave-
nue. school held It's regular month
ly meeting this week. This club was
formulated at the beginning of the
school year for the purpose Of es-
tabllshing closer relation between
the home and school.
AT the various meetings the follow
ing subjects have been considered.
What right has a, parent to keep
a child cut of SCHOOL,
What should the mother expect
Of the teacher and what should the
teacher expect of the motherT'
rs there lack Of reverence
among our childteD, II so, how can
we correct itg'
Owing to the shortness of time in
the school year the mothers request
ed that the club hold a special meet
ing next week to discuss the subject:
How to teach children the value OF
money"
This topic was to have been dis
cussed at the last meeting but for
lack of time was postponed.
The Defective Child" was the
subject under consideration. Papers
bearing on the subject we're read by
Mrs. Wright Harding and Miss Susie
E. Humphreys, the teacher.
After lengthy discussion the fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted:
That whereas other cities are
making effective efforts in retaining
defective children and whereas we
realize that our children in some in
stances are not doing the work which
they should do, owing to physical de-
fects which could be corrected by
proper faculties;
Therefore be it resolved that we do
all we can to agltate this matter
aid educate the people to the need
OF department in our schools that
our children may have proper treat
ment and environment to overcome
these defects.
And we further resolve that we
make a special plea to the boards
of education and health that in
building now school buildings they
make special provision for this de-
partment.
I'VE invite and urge the interest
and cooperation of all parents and
citizens in accomplishing this end"

uation-perhaps you will say be-
cause they could not help it-but, at
any rate. they have accepted it, and

than ever before to fuyall their
proper obligations. 1T is not

Laws Increase Expense.
One OF the most discouraging
features of the situation at the
present time is this fact, that
coupled with the apparent OPPOSE
tion on the part of the people to any
increase Of rates by carriers is an
apparent willingness on the part Of
many fthe laIwmaking bodies 10
pass laws (~hen urged by certain
inAuences) which make it more and
more expensive as well as difficult
to operate the roads (regardless Of
whether such laws are necessary or
desirable in the interest of all the
.people).
Fun-Crcw Bill Costly.
The so-called fulI-crcw bill Is a
concrete example. This law, if made
effective in all the states which the
Baltimore and Ohio reaches, would
add to our annual cost OF operations
between 100000 and $500, 900.
Other examples might zoe cited
While much of the legislation to
which refer is, in my opinion, OF
no benefit whatever, some of it may
/ be necessary and wise, but, wise or
otherwise, one effect of all such
laws is to increase the cost of oper-
alton, and in the end such increased
cost must be reflected in the rate
service. most earnestly urge that
this subject is one worthy of your
careful thought and consideration.
'iLf the carriers are to be required
to continue on the present basis Of
rates then | submit that in ali fair
ness their expenses ought not to be
made unnecessarily high w leslsla-
