ENGAGE BUREAU
TO MAKE SURVEY
Municipal Research Bureau to
Make Examination of South
Bend Schools in March or
ApriI-Need $400 or $500.

The educational survey which has
been planned for the city schools will
probably be conducted by the bureau
of municipal research of New York.
1t was first thought that the work
would be done by the Russell Sage
Foundation, but after considerable
correspondence they decided they
would be unable to do the work this
school year on account of having so
many similar jobs on hand in other
parts of the country. The recon-
mended the bureau of municipal re-
search.
The bureau of municipal research
conducts surveys not Only in school
matters but in all matters concerning
municipalities. and have experts in
all lines Within the last few years
they have conducted surveys in Wa
terbury, Syracuse, Atlanta, Reading
and St. Paul, state wide surveys for
Wisconsin and Ohio and conducted the
intensive survey of the New York city
school system concerning which there
has been so much discussion for the
last two years.
1t is expected that the survey here
will be made some time in March or
April.
Must Raise Funds.
Supt. Montgomery and all the
school principals are working to make
the survey a big success. They want
10 raise at least $500 or $500 to con-
duct the examination. but would like
to raise an even larger amount so as
20 make the work even more thor
Ough.
A recent letter from one Of the
heads OF the bureau expressed quite
an interest in the local situation.
cit isn't always the case" said the
letter, that teachers or principals,
school boards and citizens alike join in
the movements TO have a survey con-
Quoted That the movement ~ not
being agitated merely TO find fault with
any Individual or individuals but to
make comprehensive study OF your

efficient, makes il a wonderful oportu-
nifty for getting lasting results.
Sometimes these surveys are de-
sired by outsiders simply TO have an
official removed from his position. We
are certain of a friendly spirit and CO.
operation in South Bend
The first work toward raising funds
for the survey will be the concert to
be given by the South BEND cOnserva-
tory on Feb. 4. The conservatory is
offering its services free for the work.

ADVISORY BOARD
To BE CLOAK To
DODGE CRITICISM
Feeling Growing Among Safety
and Works Board Members
That Sinister Purpose Lies
Behind Creation of Body.

Later developments anent the feel
ing growing uD between the boards Of
safety and public works and Mayor
Ke1ler's advisory board as divided into
public Improvement and public well
fare divisions. appears now to be based
"A deeper seated purpose than at first
supposed.
Aside from the clay cabinet" super
vising the Ope" atoms OF the boards. il
may also serve as a screen for the
mayor on matters likely TO invoke ad-
verse criticism.
II will be easy enough. il is argued

Il followed the advice of my ad-
yisOry board provided for in the citi-
zens' platform" the mayor can say.
and consider il sufficient to answer all
critics.
Boards Feel Responsible
Members OF the two regular boards
regard this mayoralty cloak as even
more OF a menace to their satisfactory
operation. than the part on their es-
piOnage on board work. NOtwithstand-
ing that the mayor is held primarily
HESDOUSlDies OF at least SnOulQ De, IOT

tion. members OF the works and safe
~ boards are coming TO realize that
the public Is also looking to them di-
rectly TO a considerable extent, and
paying considerable attention to their
dOings regardless Of the mayor.
Development by the mayor and his
advisory board OF policies distasteful
To the regular boards. perhaps, and
thrust upon them for execution, is
among the possibilities. and II is easy
enough TO guess how the board mem
bers will feel about being made the
goat.
II is not known as yet exactly when
the mayor will call his lay cabinet to-
gether for another consultation. Last
Sunday Rev. J. l.. Gardiner, of St
PauI's N. +. church, executed a sort of
glancing blow at the administrations
Sunday closing policy, by reading a
letter criticising it for not closing the
buffets OF the unlicensed clubs. 1t is
known that the mayor and the most of
his welfare" advisors do not favor
regarding the unlicensed clubs as
blind tigers. and this will probably
Zoe the first question for their consid-
Grafton.
If the welfare" division Of the ad-
visory board should decide that the
unlicensed clubs do not come within
the purview of enforcement Of all
laws promoting the prosperity, moral
ity and good repute OF the city. with a
due regard to the requirements of a
growing municipality" then the mayor
will no doubt consider himself amply
protected ON that subject.

west Main street, daughter of
Aoram lie Feber, one of the wealth
lest men in the suburb.
The Identification was made in an
unusual way. a brother, Edward lie

absence that the unfortunate woman
was his sister, came to the morgue.
Hearing that the body was horribly
mangled he refused to view the re-
mains, but examined the clothes she

Was the distinguishing feature of the
woman's clothing, he said was his.
She also wore gray sweater which
he identified as her own. This COM
pleted the Identification and arrange
ments We're made to have an under
taker remove the body.
The cause for the suicide of the
young woman was explained by lie
Feber as insanity caused by nervous
breakdown. She left home without
saying anything to other members of
the family as to her destination.
Throughout the day they awaited her
return and when the news came of
the dead woman dressed in white the
family knew who the victim was.
Miss Florence lie Feber was 90
years old and graduated from the
Milwaukee Normal school about six
years ago. She was born in Wauwa-
tosa, where her family has been
prominent for several decades. After
she received her certificate as a
teacher, she obtained position in
the Hawley road school in Wauwa-
tosa, where she taught for several
years. About two years ago she left
Wauwatosa to take class In the
public school at Grand Rapids, Wis
Later she went to Minneapolis and
taught in the Sheridan Road school
in that city.
Early in 1913 she had fallen down
fight of stairs in the Minneapolis
school and was badly hurt. She re-

weeks and when discharged as cured
suffered severe headaches and be-
came morose and respondent.
The suicide of the young woman
was the second in the family in -four
years. In 1910 Clarence lie Feber
a brother, ended mis- life by shooting
himself. He also was supposed Z
have gone insane.
