1t would be safe bet that there are
no gun-toters In Cophenagen. The
figures OF r. L. Hoffmans report in

average Of homicides there is only 45
per cent TO every 100000 people--or
only one murder a year to every 21o,-
900 people--n cites like Denver or st.
Paul for instance. We ought to send

to find how II IS done.
Tho average in the thirty largest
American cities was 81 murders in
1911 and Al in 1e12-or II to 1s mur-

rate was 9.6. Paris showed SO. the
worst in Europe, while London was
only 1.31.
In this country the major part Of the
homicides. in proportion to the popula-

the worst feature Of 1t is that they are
on the increase, the ten year average Of

more than FIVE times that OF the east

Q. How many families are there In
Marshalltown who do not recognize
these lines7
A. Those who have had no children
In the first grade in the Marshalltown
public schools during the past four
years.
So much by way Of introduction.
Four years ago, shortly after he was
called to the superintendency OF the
local public schools. Aaron Palmer in
troduced the Aldine method Of teaching
primary pupils to read.
Beginning with the school year Of
1913. the public schools Of Des MoInes,
the capital city Of Iowa, introduced the
same method.
At the recent convention OF the asso-
citation of primary teachers. held al
Des Moines. before which Mr.. Palmer
delivered an address, many were the
expressions of wondernent and del!gh:
that the Aldine method had been
adopted for the primary department OF
the Des Moines schools.
Mr.. Palmer could not help but feel
Just a little bit proud OF the fact that
no had foreseen the advantages Of the
method and placed 1t in vogue In the
schools hero four years bc.o.e Des
Moines school men appreciated It's
benefits
Parents who have had children in
the first grade within tho past four
years have marveled at tha progress
made In reading from the very start.
Little 6-year- -olds have been seen "a
pick up magazines and read odver,isc-
ments by sounding" the words. and
few mistakes were made in pronunci-
alton OF even tho big words.
To be sure 1t Is different than we
used to do with our first readers. when
We began on This is cat; this Is a
rat; the cat sees the rat" etc. Rut it's
a safe assertion that the 6-year- cids
under the Alllne method are learnin,; $;
to read faster than the children under
the former methods.
Mr.. Palmer learned Of the Aldlnc
method IN Boston before he came to
Marshalltown. He believed 1t the best
primary method for reading he had
mary teachers OF the schools here. AMI
there was hardly one in the number
who had taught the old methods so
long who believed the Aldine would
prove a success.
They have changed their minds
however.

washington, Nov. 22.-Rear Admiral
Fletcher cabled today that the battle
ship New Hampshire had left Tuxtam
to return to Vera Cruz. Taken in con-
nection with the pledge Of the constitu-
tional general. Aguilar. that his men
would not molest foreign property. the

that the restoration OF order was COM
plete between Tuxtam and Tampico.
The Madero refugees were trans
