HOME FROM ATTENDING
 CINCINNATI CONVENTION.
School Superintendent Graham Had a
 Delightful and Instructive Trip.

After week in Cincinnati attending the 45th annual meeting of the Ma tional Education association, depart ment of superintendence, School Su- Saturday evening to his home here, having experienced delightful trip in a social way and one full of valuable suggestions along school lines.
 The trip out to Cincinnati was made in a special train of about IA cars that took all the school principals from New England, New York and New Jersey. But four of the school superintendents of Connecticut did not go. There were between 5000 and 4,000 people attend ing the convention.
 One of the important questions that came up for discussion was the matter of introducing military training in the schools. It was thoroughly discussed. The general trend of opinion was shown to be against 1t.
 Vocational deucation was another subject that occupied much attention, and the problem of introducing pre- vocational education into the grades and high schools was considered at length. United States Commissioner P. P. Claxton of Washington, D. C., spoke upon the Six-Six plan and advised that wherever communities are erect ing new school buildings an attempt be made to arrange for such a. plan. This is a plan by which grammar
  while the high school would consist also of six grades in a junior and sen for division. the junior three taking in some of the subjects now included in the seventh and eighth grammar school grades.
 On the subject of vocational educa- tion, the schools at Gary, Ind, were held up as models, as they have more different lines of vocational training in the grades than any other system in the country.
 Efficiency tests were another modern development of school training that were considered. They are carried out by number of schools putting the same tests before their pupils and the results obtained from these form a unit of measure by which the school can know how its pupils are doing as compared with the general average or with any particular school. Efficiency tests have now been completed for composition, and one is being prepared in reading.
 Last fall the Norwich schools par ticipated in an efficiency test upon the subject of arithmetic in which the work in 29 schools formed the basis of comparison, and the Norwich marks were very satisfactory.
 One of those on the programme at the Cincinnati convention was Mrs. Ellor Carlisle Ripley, who was former ly in charge of the normal school at sistant superintendent of schools in Boston. She spoke upon the topic Should essentials of a course of study vary to satisfy social demands in diff ferent school districts? Within the same district?''

red hot" That is the attitude of the men of Scranton.
 War News Secondary to Sunday.
 The speaker told of the wonderful transformations in the liquor traffic in Philadelphia since Sunday has been there and these transformations are taking place all over the city, all the time. The chairman of the Y. M. C. A. shop meetings has been unable to sup. ply the demands for preachers to talk to the men of the shops. In Philadal- phia the war news Is secondary with the newspapers and the black head lines concern Billy Sundays cam paign. It Is practically impossible to secure even one extra copy of the dailies in that city.
 Rev. MT. Wright said that Billy Sun day firmly believes the Bible to be the word of God. He takes his text from the word of God and backs 1t up with other texts. When the people Of the world see a man who has a message out of Gods look they want that mes sage.
 Billy Sunday believes in the deity of Jesus Christ, He believes in sin and believes in the devil. He preach es sin as 1t is.
 Rev. MT. Wright defended MT Sun day regarding the charges of grating made against him, saying that peo- pie call him him grafter for the same reason that we are always knocking the fellow who is doing things and who is blessed for doing them.
 The meeting closed with the singing of the hymn, In the Cross of Christ Glory and the berediction was pro- nounced by Rev. Dr. Slocuul- The at tendance at the meeting numbered about 800 and everyone manifested deep interest in Rev. MT. Wright's ad- dress.
 When the meeting had concluded a remarkable demonstration of affection for this former Norwich pastor was witnessed as practically three quarters of the congregation formed in line and passed around in front of the platform to exchange a hand shake and word of greeting with Rev. MT. Wright.
 While in the city he was the guest of Deacon and Mrs. Sheperd B. Pal mer at whose home on Warren street many members of the church gathered to meet MT. Wright in an informal way after he returned from the meet ing at the church. He is to go to Providence today to speak at a Y. M c. A. meeting.

WRITING EXPERT coMMENDs
 NORWICH SCHOOL WORK
Progress Shown by Monthly Test Plan
 in All the Grades.

In his office in the town hall build ing School Superintendent E. J. Gra- ham has handwriting specimens of all the pupils of the sixth grade in all tember ard in February. and which show the general very satisfactory ad- vancement made in penmanship in that time. The same sort of penman- ship tests were taken in the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grades, but the sixth grade work was taken for comparison.
 On the 18th of February one of the special instructors of the A N. Palmer company was in this city, where she examined the papers of the sixth grade from the various schools and had the following to say of what these showed:
 T congratulate the schools of Nor wich upon their excellent success in penmanship. It is particularly grat- flying to note that 103 out of the 12O teachers are themselves qualified ex- perts in the Palmer method of pen manship. It is not surprising that such excellent results are obtainsd and that you are pleased"
 The tests by which such satisfactory results were obtained were made under general directions regarding penman- ship issued to all the schools by which the pupils were to write on Sept. 18th for three minutes on a certain selec- tion from the spelling book, and fol- low this up with making a similar copy on the fifteenth of each month. All the copies were to be kept for comparison. The last copy was made about the 18th of February, the same selection being written each time.
 In measuring the handwriting of pu- pills there were three essential char acterstics to be considered: (a) The position of the pupil; (b) Whether or not muscular movement is employed in the writing. Evidences of move- ment are smooth, light and clear cut lines. (c) Form; characteristics of form are: writing should be small, Uniformity as to slant. height and spacing.
 Due consideration was also to be given to position, movement and form.

REVISED PLAN FOR
 THAMES RIVER BRIDGE.
Chairman Elliott Says This is on the
 Way.

For many weeks work in connection with the New Haven roads new bridge over the Thames at New London has been going forward in earnest. In the course of few months the final plans for the new bridge will be ready and work probably will be pushed right along.
 Just at present the New Haven is working to complete it's new line across Winthrop cove and over the Central Vermont tracks to the riverbank, where it will connect temporarily with the present bridge over the river. In re- gard to the whole job Chairman Elliott states:
 Careful investigation and study is being made of the Thames river bridge situation. and it is thought that a final revised plan for the construction Of a new bridge will be arrived at during the next few months. Until the re- Vised plans are completed definite statement cannot be made about any work on the piers or the bridge.
 "So far no work has been done ex- cept that of investigation. The con- struction of a new line from New Lon Central Vermont tracks to connec- ton with the present bridge is now going on. This work is about 70 per cent complete. and the new line should be put into service during the coming summer. This is so construct
 
 bridge when that is built. Much of the concrete work is finished, and consid- erable of the steel work is already erected over the Central Vermont tracks"
 The Winthrop cove and Thames river problems have worried the New Haven officials for long time. They were able to solve the Thames river propo- sition by tieing together the two sec tions of the old bridge and allowing only one train on the structure at a time.
 The Winthrop cove trest1e has been in a more serious condition and imme- diate renewal was necessary. So the road started it's construction and is rushing it. Other improvements in New London may be postponed when the new Winthrop cove line is com pleted.
 It has been generally understood that the New Haven purchased the material for the Thames river bridge under MT. Mcllen's administration and has kept it in storage east of New Haven ever since. It is also understood that funds for the construction of the bridge and
