BRYAN EXPLAINS
EDUCATION NEED
Secretary Of State Critieises Fathers
Who Neglect Chlidren's
Training.

1t is an incomprehensible system OF
justice that makes men pay debts but
does not compel them to educate their
children, Secretary of State Bryan said
last night, in making the opening ad-
dress of the Teachers Institute, at First
Congregational Church.
Mr.. Bryan confessed during his speech.
that he is not success, in that he
aspired to be one and one-half inches
taller than he is. II was his ambition,
he said. to measure six feet from tip
to tip.
All the Washington school teachers who
could crowd into the floor and galleries
OF the church heard the speech of Mr.
Bryan, which was on The Making of a
Man" DIR. William NJ. Davidson, the
retiring Superintendent of Schools, in
troduced Mr. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan said government is not
nearly so important as education. He
said 1t must be confessed that with all the
boasted opportunities for education, but
a small percentage Of men 60 through
college: that a large percentage never
go TO high schools. and that many do
not complete courses in graded schools
There win be two meetings of the
institute today, and two tomorrow. The
session today will include
speeches by DIR. John B. Thompson. of
Mass. and DIR. George L.

Madame Bakhmeteff and the German
Ambassador and Countess Won Bernstorf
have forwarded their wedding gifts fol
Miss Jessie Woodrow Wilson to the White
House. The presents were sent to the
Executive Mansion yesterday. BY NIGH
it is expected that the rest of the Am
bassadors who have been holding back
their presents for more than two weeks
will have sent them to the White House.
A handsome carved umbrella handle,
studded with gems is the gift of the
Russian Ambassador and Nine. Bakh-

CONFUSION OF NAMES
FREQUENTLY OCCURS
J. R. Young, Host Of Dublin Visitor
Robbed at Union Station, Is Real
Estate Operator.

Arrests are expected today Of the two
men who robbed Edmont A. Trouton, OF
Dublin, ireland. of a letter OF credit con-
tanning a balance of $3.50 and $50 in
cash at Union Station Tuesday afternoon.
The police have good descriptions Of the
two men.
Trouton had the money in a handbag
in the automobile of J. R. Young. of
2262 Cathedral Avenue, whose guest he
has been for several days, and while
he was in the depot to make reserva-
ton for his return to Ireland the theft
occurred.
Yesterday John r. Young. clerk of the
District Supreme Court, was kept busy
explaining to his friends that he knew
nothing OF the robbery. BY an error lis
name was used as the host OF Trouton
instead Of James Richard Young. real
estate operator. living in Cathedral Ave
nue..
The two names are conflicting to WASH
ington people. James Richard Young
said last night he often was awakened
in the wee small hours of the morning
by love-sick couples desiring marriage
licenses, when they should have called on
Col. John Ramsey Young. of i522 r
Street the Supreme Court clerk. Often
Col. Young gets telephone messages
meant for the other man.
