CLASS NIGHT GOWNS
BOTHER OFFICIAL
Superintendent Points Out
Obstacles and Need
for Action.

Greater difficulty will be experienced by
the Board of Education in getting the
young women graduates to dress simply
on class night than on commencement
night, according to d statement made
by Superintendent A r. Stuart this
morning, and in his opinion there is
greater need for modification then than
al the time the diplomas are received.
HIS reasons were disclosed this morn
ing when he said
a surprising thing developed during
INC committee meeting yesterday, and
mat was that the class night dres ses,
as rule, cost more than the Eradua-
tlng dresses. II will be somewhat diff
hcult 20 deal with that, because class
night is purely a social event The
school has no direct interest in it, for
1t is entirely class affair. Still, in
that, as with the graduation problem
we hope to gain our object through the
cooperation of the parents. We must
depend entirely on that, for steam
roller tactics would never do"
MIR. Stuart explained this morning
That the committee which IS considering
the SimpliCity-in-dresS feature Is not
r made up OF the principals of the various
schools, as is supposed by some. in
School instructors; but before MIR
Stuart makes his report to the Board
of Education on April > he will consult
With ali the principals and get their
IDEAS. He says he does not anticipate
any opposition 10 the movement that
has been set on foot
At the meeting of the committee, held
III the Franklin School Yesterday after
noon, IT was decided to recommend that
graduating exercises be held in the
afternoon, instead of at night: that
Invitations bear the words, mo flow
ers;, that teachers set an example of
dressing simply, and that the mothers
Of pupils be urged to cooperate III
bringing about a simplicity of dress
both during school hours and at gradua-
ting time.
The elimination of flowers at COM
msncement time is not entirely new
feature, for it was attempted last year
with conSidera BILE success.
The committee perfected permanent
UIGaniZatiOn yesterday by electing Mrs
Nora Hoege!sberger chairman, and il is
expected the committee will meet often
for the purpose of keeping the idea of
simplicity in dress constantly b5fore the
parents.

Bid for Joint Support.
Limantour could hardly make a
stronger bid for the joint support of
conservative money interests abroad
and radical reformers at home. He de-
clares he favors a reform OF the cleo
| ton laws. That is one of the cardinal
demands OF the Maderists. He declares
that the division Of the great estates,
so as 10 give the people chance, 20
own lands, and TO end the system Of
pecnage, must be regarded as desirs BILE,
and that plans 10 accomplish this must
be worked out and put into effect.
All this can be regarded as nothing
less than the evidence that Limantour
is determined to reform the Diaz regime
or to smash it II, after issuing this
statement, he can still remain in the
cabinet IL will be taken as proof that
he has obtained dominance, that Diaz

The minister of finance reiterated that

tour frankly tells of his efforts to get
in touch with Francisco l. Madero, the

TRUE AUTHORITY.

Self-government, with tenderness. Here you have the condition of all authority over children. The mother should consider herself as her child's sun, changeless and ever-radiant world, whither the small, restless creature, quick at tears and laughter, light, fickle, passionate, full of storms, may come for fresh stores of light and warmth. of calm and cour- age. The mother represents the di- rinity to childhood. The religion of sa child depends on what its motler and father are, not on what they say.
