PANAMA BOUNDARY
DISPUTE NEARS END
Amicable Settlement of Controversy
Between United States and Co.
lombia Expected Soon.

The long-t ending controversy between
the United States and Colombia over the
sovereignty # Panama and the boundary
of that republic is nearing an amicabls
settlement, according to a statement OF
Acting Secretary of State Moore yester-
day.
Columbia has made representations to
the United States concerning the settle
ment of the Panama controversy" said
the Acting Secretary of State, and this
government has in turn made an offer
to Colombia. which probably will be &C.
cepted. dc not care to state the pro-
vision of this offer at present or to dis
cuss the amount involved. but 1 think
that the PaDema question will be finally
settled within a short time"
The Panama controversy arose during
the Roosevelt administration and was
concerned with the title to the Canal Zone
and the boundary of the Republic OF
Panama. Tie agreement which will end
the discussion will involve the payment
to Colombo of considerable sum of
money. PROBABLY about sl2,000Ooo. This
amount, however, wiz be less than that
demanded by Colombia in previous nego-
tiations with this government.

TUBERCULAR Warming
SOUNDED BY DR.. KOBER
Persons Having Symptoms Should
Seek Hospital Treatment at
Once, He Says.
LECTURES AT THE Y. M. c. A.

DepIoring the fact that victims of
tuberculosis in the incipient stages do
not avail themselves of hospital treat
ment, DR.. George NJ Kober, dean of the
Georgetown Medical School. lectured at
the Y. NJ. c. A. last night on How the
City's Sick Poor Are Cared For" The
lecture, which was illustrated by lantern
slides. was the third of a course on the
communitys health.
DR.. Kober said that persons having the
symptoms of the disease, such as a
cough and loss of weight, often console
themselves with the belief that these are
only the results of a cold, and neglect to
seek hospital treatment until the disease
is in an advanced stage.
He said that instead of highly decorat-
ed hospitals, more accommodations for
poor patients were needed. He also point
ed to the fact that the environments of a
hospital often have great influence on
patients. Hospitals, he declared, should not
be built near jails, warehouses or other
institutions that tend to have a depressing
effect upon the sick.
Dr. Kober outlined the history and
work Of practically all the hospitals and
asylums in and about the city, giving
emphasis to the fight against tuberculosis
and smallpox.

Carefully.

citation. at the United Brethren Sunday
School House. North Capitol and
streets last night.
Mr.. Thurston spoke on 1.-The Courses OF
Study Pursued in Our High Schools and
What These Courses Prepare Pupils For. 81
His address was of particular interest to
parents of grade school pupils, as it dealt
chiefly with that period of transition
which pupils undergo when they leave
grade school-"the village"-for high
school-the big city"
Il think the world is growing more
and more away from the idea that a
man must be a specialist to be success
full" said Mr.. Thurston. What the
world Is waiting for is broad men. sharp
ened to the point.
Selection of Studies.
THE idea of making the pupils Of our
schools specialists while they are at
tending school. and that the rest does
not matter, to my mind Is Anticipated"
said Mr.. Thurston.
The speaker emphasized the necessity
Of high school training and urged coz
operation between parents and teachers.
It Is strongly advisable. he pointed out,
for the parents and the grade pupils to
consider thoroughly the question as to
Just which high school the pupil should
go in order to realize his aims and to
fit his individual talents and gifts.
The speaker deplored the fact that 50
many pupils drop out of school nowadays
because ''ss a week now looks great
deal bigger than SIS dollars a week
within few years He said he had OBJ
served many cases where a boy after
leaving high school caught up in the
same line of work with another boy who
already had had about three or four
years of practical experience in that
work, but who had no high school train

it bursts into flame, even so does a pupil
rub up against this or that teacher with
out the necessary and proper relationship
being established. until the teacher sud
denly touches upon the fineness of life
and spirit that is in every child and
leads to success"
Mr.. Thurston suggested that in order to
obtain effective results, choice of the
high schools should begin to be made
while the boys and girls are still in the
seventh grade. The doris of Washington's
high schools are wide open, he added,
and the teachers are well qualified and
willing 20 give advice to parents who
wish to know which is the best course to
take fer their children.
