URGE CHANGES IN
PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Speaker Declares Conservatism
Will Mean Loss of Their Hold
on Civilization.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, July 10.-"Unless
certain adjustments are made in the
educational system the public schools
of America will lose their hold in our
civilization and continue to exist only
as decaying institution" This was
the declaration of j. Fl. Francis.
superintendent of schools of Los An
geles, Cal, in an address before the
annual convention of the National
Educational Association. which closes
weeks session tonight.
Every child has a right to freedom
in the pursuit of his normal develop
ment, free from mental, religious, po-
litical or financial exploitation on the
part of those stronger than himself,
Mr.. Francis continued. Quiet oppo-
sition of the powerful organizations
toward any change leading to greater
independence of thought or freedom is
one of the menacing difficulties facing
those who would institute a system of
schools to meet the needs of the child.
Henry F. Cope, of Chicago, speaking
before the Religious Education Asso-
citation, of which he is general secre-
tary said the present agitation for
the teaching of religion In the public
schools in based on three misappre-
tensions" as follows:
First, that the State may properly
teach religion: second. that religion
can be taught as mathematics and
many other subjects can, and third,
that teaching religion would solve all
the problems of youthful delinquency
and cure the general public apathy to
ecclesiastical affairs.
I'm recent times the attempts to
meet that instruction in religion has
taken on large degree of education
al seriousness. The churches are fac
ing in that direction. 1t is the duty
of the State to recognize every serious
endeayor to meet educational needs.
Whenever the work of the Sunday
schools or similar agencies rises to the
level of the work of the public schools,
that common level of educational ef-
ficiency ought to have public recogni-
ton
Shorter courses and longer hours
were among the changes advocated by
the commission on the reorganization
of methods in the teaching of manual
training in secondary schools in its
annual report submitted today.
Charles W. Evans, supervisor of
English in the East Orange High
School, addressed the National Coun-
ell of Teachers of English. He urged
adoption Of uniform grammatical and
rhetorical nomenclature, and said the
object of English instruction should
be the incubation of certain habits in
the pupil, rather than that he should
have done a prescribed amount of
work.

"Spend Pennies, Save Nckels, y
John DIS Advice to Riddles

TARRYToWN, N. Y. July TO-
John D. Rockefeller. who was
seventy-five years old Wednesday. is
still trying to encourage thrift
among the younger generation. A
good story to illustrate this point
came from Pocantico Hills yesterday.
During Mr. Rockefeller's walks
around the estate he often visits the
new stable. Here the children of the
employees living there line up and tip
their hats, saying, How do you do,
Mr.. Rockefeller, Mr.. Rockefeller
calls them over one by one and as he
reaches in his vest pocket he pulls
out a niclSle and penny. To each
child he says: There's a penny to
spend and nickel to save"
This differs from Mr.. Rockefeller s
reply to school teacher who asked
him how to accumulate a fortune.
Save your pennies he replied.
When friend asked him about this
he said: "Oh, well, you know chill
dren have to have candy now and
then" 1t puzzles the men on the
estate to know how Mr.. Rockefeller
carries so many nickels and pennies
in his vest pocket.

Marshall Nelms. Nelms expected to

his mother. who was alarmed by a
letter in Mrs. Dennis's handwriting
saying that she had killed her sis

to account for the letter except on
the theory that Mrs. Dennis was tenn

bad trace of her sister since they left
Dallas, Texas, some time ago.

more easily found yesterday. Ad-
vices from Carson City, Nevada. were

WESTINGHOUSE
STRIKE IS OVER
10000 Workers at Pittsburgh
Vote to Return Monday.
Troops to Quit.

PITTSBURGH, July 10.-Troopers
of the State eonstabulary continued
TO guard the streets of East Pitts
burgh today in spite of the vote of
the Westinghouse strikers last night
to return to work next Monday.
Captain Adams decided after he
had gone over the situation carefully
that the constabulary was no longer
reeded, and gave orders for the men
to break camp. They expected to
march out this afternoon. going over
land to Greensburg, their headquar-
tiers.
Strike pickets were all withdrawn
and many workmen took advantage
OF their absence to enter the shops at
once, but the majority determined to
follow the program laid down by the
mass meeting. The comissary main
tanned by the strikers will be kept
open until after the first pay day.
The 10000 strikers at a great mass
meeting last night decided to go back
to work on Monday practically on
whatever terms the Westinghouse
managers see fit to offer them. These
terms, it is expected, will be generous.
have been loath to employ new work
men so long as the men who have
been with them for years showed the
slightest disposition to compromise
their differences with the companies.
The employees expect the employers
to make good their promise to adjust
the matters complained of after they
have returned to their tasks.
The strike has lasted about five
weeks. There has been no disorder or
violence, but the Westinghouse COM
panies, acting probably on the advice
of the local authorities, thought 1t
wise to ask Sheriff Richards to order
company of the State constabulary
to the plants in East Pittsburgh
Brushton and Wilmerding.
The State police have been on duty
in the strike zone for three weeks
but they have had little to do.

Short Coat Fashion
for Early Season, Long
One for Late, Is Dictum

NEW YORK, July 10.-The woman
who wears short coat in the early
season will be i'll fashion, and the
woman who later in the winter puts
on longer one will also be in style.
This is the decision reached by mem
bers of the United Cloak, Suit and
Skirt Manufacturers Association,
and SO far as they are concerned
the Question as to the length of the
smart womans cloak, which has been
agitating the trade for some time,
is settled The other association of
makers is yet to be heard from, and
the designers are admittedly at sea.
The Cloak, Suit and Skirt Manu-
facturers Association, the other
large trade organization, last night
decided to have its executive com
mittee announce early in each man
ufacturing season hereafter the APP
proximate length and style for the
season. Today 1t is expected that
the association will issue state
ment showing what it believes will be
the real fashionable length This
statement will, in the opinion of
those most familiar with the subject,
differ from that of the other associa-
ton but little.

CHICAGO WOMEN
i PLAN TO START
:. MEAT BOYCOTT
Feminist Movement Leader in
West EnIists in Fight
Against Packers.
Special to the Evening star

CHICAGO, July 10.-Answering the
fat of the meat firms that the price of
meat will be higher than at any
time in the history of the trade, Mrs.
George Bass. president of Chicago
Women's Clubs, and one of the lead
ers of the feminist movement in the
West, today announced a call for a
meat boycott.
The packers monopoly mas caused
the present cruel increase in meat
prices, already high" declared Mrs
Bass. THE packers have discouraged
the raising of cattle by combining to
pay the raiser the lowest possible
price for live cattle. As a result the
farmeE, has given up raising cattle
in many cases and is selling his grain
for what it will bring, rather than
take any chances in feeding 1T. II
the price of meat continues high or
goes higher we must stop eating meat.
We women will urge all housewives
TO use vegetables, fish and eggs. II
we get the women interested you will
find that the packers will be glad to
reduce prices.
A canvass of the local meat mar
kets today showed that retail prices
for fresh meats have advanced from
one to three cents a pound in thirty
days. The packers were today full
of gloom for the consumers.
THE price of meat has nothing to
do with the price of grain said Ar
thur Meeker, of Armour & Co. Meat
is likely to be higher. So many farm
ers have ceased to raise cattle that
the supply at present is only rs per
cent. of normal There are 100000
fewer cattle in the United States to-
day than there were ten years ago,
and there are 100000 more mouths
to feed"
Prices at the stock yards today in
dicated that the consumer will not
be able to find refuge from the high
prices of beef by eating mutton or
pork Hogs are up about rs cents per
hundred weight. over the low price
for June. while mutton prices are
very high and lambs are higher than
on any July in the history of the local
yards.

fourth street went to Rochester a
week ago with an attachment he had
devised for the kodak camera He
returned yesterday and spent the rest
of the day trying to decide where
to deposit a check for 100000. The
check, which was signed by George
Eastman. treasurer of the Eastman
Kodak Company, was the price paid
to Mr.. Gaisman for his device. 1t
was one of the largest sums, Mr..
Gaisman said, that had been given
outright for an invention.
By means of Mr.. Gaismans attach
ment it is possible to write a caption
or signature on a film in the camera
at the time a picture is taken. The
writing may be done with an ordi-
nary lead pencil and the letters APP
