Suit in Justices Court. - Claiming

work, l.. w. Hunt brought action
against Mr. Kasch to recover the
money. and the case has been heard
in Justice w. r. Names court. After
listening TO the facts and arguments
on both sides, Justice Names took the
matter under adyisement and expects

two. The engine in question is a
three-clyinder two-cycle machine,
which a few years ago furnished the
power for Scamp II. and for the Katy
did. both boats being owned by the

boats on this part of the river. The
plaintiff claims in his suit that the de-
PENDANT guaranteed the engine with

the money. and the question at issue
IS whether the guarantee applied
merely 20 the engine or to the engine
in marine use after it had been in
stalled in the boat.

SCHOOL AND COLLEGE WORK
Showing Of Wasted Time in Present
Education Plan.
AT LEAST TWO YEARS LOST
Summary of Conclusions of Investi-
Eators-Activitieso Of Nearby
schools--Educatio
Notes.

There IS a waste OF at least two years
In the present plan OF American educa-
tion. This is the conclusion reached by
committee Of prominent educators in
report on Economy OF Time in Edu-
cation" just issued by the United States
bureau of education
This conclusion follows an investiga-
ton lasting nearly ten years by COM
u,ittee Of Tire National Education as
sociation. of which President James H..
Baker oc the University Of Colorado Is
chairman. The committee have endeav-
ored to form a plan that would do
away with the two-year loss. They pro
pose that six years be assigned to the
elementary school. instead OF eight as
at present; that the high school period
be from age z to IS divided into two
parts Of four and two years each that
COLLEGE work extend from Is to 30. or 16 to
20. according to the method OF distributing
the last two secondary years; and that
graduate or professional work at uni
versity cover the years from 20 to "a
This would enable boys and girls 10 get
ample vocational training after the age
of 12: II would enable those who so on
to college 20 get through their college
work at the age OF -; and It would
save the professional man from having to
wait until q to start his professional
career.
The report insists that the present ele-
mentary course is too long; that the
ground now covered I'm eight years can
be covered Just as efficiently In six
allowing secondary work to begin at the
age of T. To save on elementary school
ing they urge: Choose the most i'm
lportant subjects and the most important
| ltopics: maks a distinction between first
rate facts and principles and tenth-rate'
| Confine the period OF elementary educa-
tion to mastering the tools Of education
Include the last two years of the present
elementary school in the period oil
secondary education and begin the STUDY
Of foreign language. elementary algebra
constructive geometry. elementary science
and history two years earlier than al
present
The report takes up the problem Oh
saving time in education from the point
or view OF the college, the school and
society at large as well as OF the indiNiu-
nal pupil; and it contains opinions on
