COURT ORDERS HIM TO
TAKE OVER TWO HOUSES

A decree for specific performance
was granted yesterday in an opinion
by Vice7C Chancellor Emery in the suit
brought by Edgar T. Wheaton, of
Scranton, against John Collins, of
Springfield, to compel the latter to
take owe two houses and a lot in
Crawford, according to an alleged
agreement.
Mr.. Collins claimed that the agree
ment had not been completed, and
that the contract was Abandoned, but
Wheaton produced letters written by
Collins in which he (Collins) had IN
timated that he raj buying both
houses. The amount was $4,000. 1t
was further pointed out by Wheaton
that the son of Mr.. Collins, John /.
Collins, a printer, of $40 Broad street.
had taken possession of one of the
houses in September, 1910. 1t was
agreed then that $50 be paid for DC
cupancy until April 1. 1911, at which
time the deeds were to be made out
and the lea contaminated. In Oc-
tober, 1910, a deposit of $500 vas
made. Collins wanted to buy only
one of the two houses, but the wee
chancellor held thai the agreement to
purchase both houses and the lot
must stand. Mr.. Wheaton was repre-
sented by Conover & English, and
the defendant by F. e. Bradner.

MRS. CLEVELAND
TALKS EDUCATION
Says She Will Send Her Chill
dren to Institutions in
America.

PRINCETON, June 20.-Mrs. Gro
yer Cleveland has brought her chill
dren back to this country to be edu-
Gated In schools here. While they
have been attending schools abroad it
was only that they might learn Ian
guages.
When her eldest boy is ready for
college he will go to Princeton Uni
versity, in which his father took a
great interest and near which the
later years of his life were spent.
When the Cleveland children first
went to school abroad it was under
stoo that they would finish their edu-
cation there. Mrs. Cleveland yester-
day corrected this impression by an
nouncing ner plans for an American
education.
Personality, individuality is just
as necessary and important In the
training of a child as it is to the
success of the adult said Mrs.
Cleveland. People have only begun
to realize the Importance of discov-
ering the particular trend of the
child's mind at a very early age, and
in consequence a revolution has taken
place In modern educational methods,
especially those that have to do with
the training of young children"
Her remarks were brought out by a
letter which she wrote al the request
of the Commissioners of Education
to the girls and boys of New Jersey
passing from the grammar schools
the high schools.
Facsimiles of the letter were given
to the children, and their replies are
to be n of the tests for promotion.
The letter, in part, follows:
Dear Girls and Boys-The privi-
lege has been given me to write a
letter to all Of you who are finishing
your courses in the grammar schools
and are ready to go on to the high
schools. and / want to take the OPP
portunity to congratulate you for
several reasons.
You have had a fine chance to
learn many things out of books, some
very interesting, others less so, per-
haps, but still very we'll worth while,
and to learn from your teachers and
other school friends many things
which have not come out of books at
all, and you have learned to know
these friends themselves.
II congratulate you OF all this, and,
further, I congratulate you that you
have successfully accomplished all
the hard work which the grammar
schools have required of you. Some
of you are glad that it is over; some
of you are sorry; but I believe there
is not n but goes from this first
stage of school life with some feeling
of regret, glad as you are to have
finished and eager as you are to go
on.
And l want to ask If you do not
feel that this Is really my greatest
reason for congratulating you. and
if you do not see why 1 think it Is
so, and also to ask you, each one, to
tell why you personally have this lit
tie ache of regret in your heart.
Perhaps If you think rel all the
time since you began your grammar
school work and reflect on the things
you have loved most-in your study,
in your play, in your friendship-you
will find the answer to my query,
and that answer will tell me some
thing I want very much to know"
