Terms Of Protocol


Constantinople. Dec. 5.-An official
note issued last evening says:
IAN armistice has been concluded
with Bulgaria, Servia and Montenegro.
The state of war with Greece con-
t!nues."
Although the complete terms of the
protocol have not been made public. it
is learned that the question of revic-
abandoned, the government being salts
fed that the towns were sufficiently
supplied with foodstuffs to last until
the conclusion Of peace.
The only condition mentioned in the
official communication to the press IL
that the troops should remain in the
positions now occupied.
It Is said that no limit has been
placed on the armistice. which may be
terminated by 40 hours notice by
either side.
1t is reported that the Turkish and
Bulgarian delegates will meet again to-
day at Bagatche for the purpose of ar
ranging preliminaries for the peace
conference.
Speculation is rife as to the real fail
ure Of Greece to be signatory to the
armistice. 1t Is generally felt that the
mere rejection Of the special Greek de-
mands did not constitute sufficient
reason for Greeces Independent atti-
tude. These demands were the capitu-
lation Of Janina and the surrender Of
the Turkish troops in the islands of
Cfries and Eytilene.
In some quarters the attitude Of
Greece Is ascribed to megalomania, the
type Of insanity where the ideas are
exalted. According to another View.
Turkey has succeeded In putting q
wedge between Greece and the Slav
states, the friction between the Greeks
and the Bulgarians at Saloniki being
adroitly utilized with that object.
The situation has created an appar-
ent split in the Balkan league and has
aroused the liveliest interest In all
circles as there 10 much curiosity re-
specting tho ANAL outcome.
Meanwhile preparations for the con-
clusion Of peace with Bulgaria, Servia
and Montenegro ars being proceeded
with. It is agreed that negotiations
shall take place in London and 1t IA
hoped that they Will be concluded In
about eight days. Thus with the con-
clusi0n Of peace. the Slav states and
Turkey will be free to devote all their
energies against Greece.

EXCELLENT APPOINTMENT

The appointment of Dr. William J. Mclaughlin to be a member of the Board of Health will meet with gen. eral approval, both because of the character and high professional stand ing of the appointee and because the practitioners of the noble art of der. tistry in Bridgeport have received recognition rarely accorded to them.
 The care of the teeth is one of the most important subdIvisions of human effort. The connection between sound teeth and sound health is intimate. although until recently scarcely re- eognized.

THE WOMEN'S VICTORY

The Connecticut Company now no doubt perceives the folly of resisting the just demands of the women Jf Connecticut. who insisted that trolley cars ought to be constructed so that they could be boarded without the use of. scaling ladders. It was not likely that the company could long continue it's lofty steps, after the at tention of the women in whose veins flowed the blood of revolutionary sires had been attracted to the fact that either cars must be changed, or the body fortified against breakage. wo- men seldom demand justice. but when they do they are app to be "deadlier than the male" as MT. KipIing put il. All of which indicates that the Con necticut Company should have fol- lowed the example of David Crock

THE SPRING M.Aip.

Ever since inventor Alexander Gra- ham Bell. invented the telephone it his filled a niche in, the lives of the earth,s inhabitants which. causes the thinking man to stop and wonder how we ever did without it.. It re- mained for EVerba and Luescher, the ehterprising young managers of ''The use for this valuable instrument.
 The Spring Mafd'' will be at the Park Theatre, Jan, g and 1O.-5-..,
 While ''The Spring Maid' was play ing in Trenton, N. J., the stage man. ager had occasion to rehearse un- derstudy in one of the parts. It was impossible for either Mir. Werba or Mir. Luesc.ler to attend this rehears al, and as it was imperative that they ors in the part, they were at. a loss to find a way. While they were pom dering on how they could accomplish the feat of attending to theirs business in their office in the New York thea tre and yet hear the understudy re- hearse sixty miles away in Trenton, it suddenly occurred to MT. Luescher that the telephone on the desk, before him might assist them materially. of ''The Spring Maid'' company, he requested him to call the understudy to the phone. and it was through the latter instrument that the Werba and Luescher office listened while the un- derstudy ran through his lines and sangs the song number required by the part. .,

Woman Has Faith
 In Rev. Richeson
Mrs. Edmands, Mother of Fiancee to be Witness For Ac-

Boston. Jan. 2.-Among the callers at the office of the attorney for the Rev. Mir. Richeson New Years were MT. and Mrs. Moses Grant Edmands of Brookline. whose daughter. Violet is engaged to Richeson. aMrs.s Ed- mands is a firm believer in the inno- cence of the accused. and is said ro be responsible for the backing her husband is giving the prisoner. Mrs. Edmands is quoted by one of her neighbors as saying:
 When I look into the great big eyes of the minister and he tells me don't you think I can tell whether he is telling the truth or a falsshood?"
 During the long conversation be- tween Mir. and Mrs. EdnIands and the attorney the connection of the minis ter with the family was carefully gone over and the movements of Richeson and everything that could shed the slightest light on the case for the. attorneys for the defense was taken by a stenographer. <-- Mrs. EdTnandg has kept we'll in the. background, but the call at the attor- ney's office makes it apparent that she will be an important witness or the defense.

Fairfield Farmer Flung Under Horses HOOfs Cl Dgs to

Despite his close call from death in a runaway in State street. near. Park avenue, Saturday night, Frank Grey walskI. farmer of Jennings Woods, Fairfield, is little the worse for his experience today GreyWaIski and hts brother-in-laW were driving home through State street when their horse took fright at trolley car at West avenue and ran wildly westward.
 The brother-in-law,, John Domonski, of Holland Heights, clung to the wag- on, but the driver, GreywaIslzi, was flung off as the animal bolted across Park avenue. He plunged over the dashboard, towards the flying hoofs of the runaway. By a rare chance he grasped the dashboard and cIung des- perately until the animal collapsed at State and Seeley streets.
 He. was badly stunned, but able to go home. and today aside from a few scratches is Ilnharmed.

EXPERIENCE IS TRUE TEST OF TEACHING VALUE
 AND SINGLE MAXIMUM IS DEMANDED BY JUSTICE

tions. is the most valuable asset in any profession. business or occupa- ton Who can doubt it.
 ''Ten years experience in teaching gives ample opportunity to acquire poise. balance. knowledge of the school system and skill in handling both children and methods. Such teachers are needed in every grade True again.
 ''Where more than one maximum does exist in cities, there is variety of opinion as to what grades ought to group under the same maximum .'' This Is very important reason.
 The Farmer has before contended that the same general principles that govern compensation in other profes- sions should govern the profession of teaching. Doctors and lawyers estab- fish common wage scale. Among public employees no attempt is made to differentiate between the pay of firemen or policemen on any theory that the duty performed in one case is more exacting than tho duty per formed Tn another case.
 In Bridgeport grades one and four are selected to carry an inferior maximum salary. Yet many instruc- tors will fervently declare that these grades make the most arduous de- mands on the teacher, and require the most exceptional service.
 This conflict of opinion as to what grades ought to be compensated at the highest figure strongly supports the single maximum, the same com pensation for all teachers of the same experience
 The single maximum idea is fur ther supported by the example. of 55 important American cities which have adopted it.
 The triple maximum is purely ar bitrary, rests upon no basis of reason that can be supported, and should be substituted by the single maximum, with consequent recognition of FIX TERRENCE as the TRUE TEST of teaching value.

( Bridgeport employs Ss6 teachers. all women, save a dozen or so of men. eight of whom find places in inc High school and the balance as principals of grammar schools, or special sinstructors.s1 --E2 sss-s g

 It consequently happens that the about a nucleus of women, some 40 per cent. ofl1y- of the whole number Of women teachers who have been engaged in the work for ten years. or more. sa
 It must be apparent to the most stupid that these teachers of long ex- perience are of exceptional value to the community. and that the extra service they are able to give should receive sorne substantial return.
 This principle. that the experienced teacher IS worth more than the in experienced teacher. is recognized by the Board of Education. A teacher enters the service at compensation of $500 and is increased for each year of service thereafter until in about ten years the maximum salary is. reached. This maximum 5s in no case more than $s5o and in some cases no more than $75o.
 That is to say, that in granting compzasation the Board of Educa- ton does not treat all teachers of ten years -seruice alike, but establishes three maxima-

 As matters now stand Mayor Reilly will act as mayor during his stay ington the president of s-he Common Council, who will be a Republican. will act in his stead. It Is not expect ed that the matter will reach the s!I- prerne court until the April term. and that a decision will not be handed down for two months or more after that time.

 Vote buying is criminal under the laws of both states The statutes againet it are numerous and complex. The crime of vote buying exists by common consent of persons in au- thority Public prosecutors know what is going on and deem it not their duty to interfere with establish ed custom. The practice is carried on by men who are in almost every relation of life good citizens. who would be surprised if they were told that the thing they were doing was treason and must prove ultimately destructive to free governments.
 It has been the custom to buy votes. so votes are bought. MT. Walsh concludes that something more than the personal punishment of those who buy and sell must be attempted. It is to be feared that nothing more can be done and that nothing less will prove effective. To arrest men for disobeying laws which custom has made dead letters may be q hard ship, but where the custom is utterly evil, and threatens~th very life of the state. no measures of repression can be too drastic.

IGNORANCE THE
 PRIMAL EVIL

The number of persons who be- lieve that evil can be lessened by say ing nothing about it is astonishingly Twentieth century and an age of in- vestigation and publicity. The de- mand for a secret trial of the clergy man, Richeson. because his offense is a sex onense, is the latest case in point.
 The evils of the secret thing stand out from every page of history and in the recital. of. contemporary events. It would be difficult to show evil ac- complished by publicity.
 But why private trial for sex of fense? These offenses have thriven upon secrecy. False modesty of par ents has. kept the truth from the young to their grievous hurt. Inteni- gent men-including those in the Bridgeport Pastors Association,- have recognized the error in this esoteric treatment of some of the most important phenomena of life. and are engaged in a labor of cor rection.
 The crime of Richeson contains nothing to stimulate other crimes. His case is contrarily a warning. by which the wages of sim are shown to be unutterably bitter.
 What is wanted is not less. but more light. Sin thrives in darkness. ignorance is in itself an evil,and may be the greatest and primal evil.
