ITALIAN COPPER SHIPS
RELEASED BY BRITISH.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 90
The Italian steamers San Giovanni
and Regina d'Ttalia. released after rep
reservations by the state department
against their detention at Gibraltar,
were allowed to proceed to Italy only
after agreeing to return to Gibraltar
with their copper cargoes, it was
learned today.
~ The vessels we're bound from the
United States and carried large guam
titles Of general cargo which would
have had to be removed to reach tho
copper. A British prize court at Glib

While visiting the Berlin geological
gardens, says "Lustige Blaetter," lit
tie Gretchen saw a great white bird
standing on one leg in a cage. She
threw in a piece of candy; the bird
gobbled It up eagerly, and thrust its
head through the wire for more.
Presently Gretchen's mother came
along. "0h. mother. see here! What
kind OF bird is this?"
The mother pointed to the sign on
the cage, which read. "The stork."

Anup-to-date remedy for
colds. That is what Peruna
is. In successful use over
so years.

Colds are caught in many
ways: lily ventilated rooms;
rooms that have direct draughts;
crowded rooms; damp houses;
stuffy school rooms; Offices lily
heated.
A dose of Peruna at the right
time, at the first symptom of
cold, before the bones begin to
ache, before the sore throat
manifests itself, or the cough, or
the discharge from the nose, Just
a dose or two of Peruna before
these symptoms begin is gener-
ally sufficient. But after the cold
is once established with the
above symptoms prominent a
bottle of Peruna, or maybe two,
will be necessary.

session Of s5 minutes, as the only which would meet the requirements of was not pleasing to you, and, after a satisfactory to the great majority of the parents aud pupils, to the teach CTS, or to me The short noon hour does not give sufficient time for pupils who live at some distance from school to go home for lunch without undue hurry which is detrimental to health. The brief afternoon session requires the return to school of many pupils who have little or no class work left to do.+ The time is too short for any. of the pupils to get well into the spirits of the work before dismissal I recommend the trial of continuous session arrangement, from to l o'clock, to go into effect when the school opens January {.
 When it is possible to have two sessions of about even length, with a generous noon hour. it is always pref erable to a continuous session plan. The school work is well balanced, and the pupils are able to have substan. tial meal at the time when the noon day meal is usually being served an advancement which furthers both the health of the child and the convent ence of the family. My recommenda- tion is based upon the realization that a-swe1l balanced two, session plan is impossible at the high school, and upon the conviction that a. continuous ses- sion arrangement will be an improve rnent over the present hours.

acquisitions, and as they have over 100000 ties on hand, this will leave about 100000 to be inspected. It is expected that when this amount has bee ntaken up they will discontinue inspectiong until next fall or winter.
 It is the opinion of many lumber manufacturers that there are now ov- CT 100000 cross ties adjoining the tracks of the New Haven road which have not been inspected, and it is cer- tain that within a short time the full number required will be along lines. It appea5E probable that cross ties which are delivered during the early part of next year will have to be car ried until next Fall or Winter; so that the manufacturers will lose not only the interest on the money invest ed but also the growth of the timber and will also have to stand the check ing which occurs when the ties are seasoning.
 It is easy to imagine that the other branches of the lumber business will improve if general business condi- tions are better, but it is hard to see how even good business will material ly affect the market for cross ties dur ing the coming year. This condition Is unfortunate for many farmers and owners of small woodland and those who have hard wood standing timber, which they desire to put. on the market

year have brought to my attention the lack of suitable artificial lighting in the majority of our schools The high school is the only building which seems adequately equipped I am sur prised to find that, in a modern and furnished school like the Israel Putnam, no arrangement has been made for artificial lights in the school rooms. Such lighting is essential for all school rooms. It is needed dur ing the sessions on short. dark days to lessen the strain upon the eyes Of pupils. The discipline of the school and the proper progress of many pu- pills makes a certain amount of. after school work imperative. The teachers, too need to devote some after school time in their rooms in preparation for the work of the next day. i feel 1t IS important that you give this matter careful consideration. During the past two or three weeks. with my sanction, the length of the mid-session recesses at the Israel Putnam school has been reduced and the schools closed fifteen to twenty minutes earlier than the us- uaI closing time. I trust that this ar rangement has your approval. that iL may be extended to other schools IT necessary, and continued in force dur ing the winter months until such tune as the rooms may be equipped with artificial lighting.
 One Session Plan Favored.
 An effort to establish satisfactory hours for the high school has de- manded considerable attention upon the part of the school officials since the opening of the fall term in Sep tember. The present arrangement IS a result of the demands or the new cooperative course The pupils who elected this course must devote their entire afternoon to work at the Trade school. A six-period session is neces- sary at the high school in the lore noon to enable them to cover thelr re- nIIired academic work. After careful consideration of the matter in all it's phases, you adopted the present plan of a. long forenoon session of 1-4 hours followed by a short afternoon
