CHURCHES OF OLNEY
WON'T JOIN PARADE
OF SUNDAY SCHOOLS
Northeastern Suburb Declines
to Participate Formally in
Coming Monster Review
Despite Persuasion
INDIVIDUALS MAY MARCH

One section OF Philadelphia will be
practically without representation in the
monster Sunday school review which Is
to take place on Saturday and In which
about 10000 men, women and children
are expected to participate This sec
ton is ,olney, busy growing and thriv-
ing community lying north of the Reading
Railways New York division tracks ana
east OF Old York road. Although there are
Ave prosperous and progi esslve Protes-
tant churches in this community, none OF
them will participate In the demonstra-
tion which has created so much interest
in religious circles during the last rev
weeks.
Efforts of George II. Stroaker, chair
man OF the Central Committee in charge
OF the annual parades and demonstrs-
ton, and members of his committee to
have Olney Join i'm It this year have been
unavailing The churches in Olney nave
never participated in a parade and, ac-
cording to Sunday school officials ana
pastors there does not seem to be much
inclination on their part TO parade, MT
Streaker spoke in Olney twice for the
purpose of trying to persuade the sun
day schools to Join in the movement, but
the prospects at present are for no united
observance in that community.
There has been a possibility that the
schools of st. James Methodist Episcopal
Church and the Presbyterian Church
would parade, but this plan was finally
called, off. The st. James school had, II
Is said, announced that 1t would partici-
pate if the school OF the First Presbyte-
rian Church did so. But, since the Pres
byterian Church has full week of rally
exercises in progress and since there
seemed no possibility that other schools
besides ST. James would join In the DEM
onstration, the officials of the school de-
cided not to enter the celebration.
One of the reasons advanced for the
lack of interest in the review in the OIL
ney section was given by the Rev. w.
H. Wells, pastor of the thriving Presby-
terian congregation. He said that, since
Olney seemed to be rather isolated so
far as Its location was concerned, and
the towns schools were supposed to
unite in the demonstration in Burholm
Park, which was rather out of the way
from the community, il was difficult to
get the citizens interested. He intimated
that there might have been less difficulty
II there had been some assembling CEN
tire nearer. Since Olney will not go to
Burholm Park to participate in the dem
onstration, it is probable il is said. that
the schools of Fox Chase will be the
only ones that will assemble there for ex-
ercises.
Another reason that Olney does not
have q united place in Saturdays big
demonstration, IL is asserted, is that three
of the churches in that place or in the
community adjacent thereto never par
ticipate in anything outside their own
congregations

SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS
HAS DIPLOMATIC PRIVATE SECRETARY
Miss Ethel M. Ingram's Accomplishments Cover Wide
Range and Are Equal to the Most Exacting
Conditions

Every parent or teacher who has ever
had occasion to visit the office of the
Superintendent Of Schools, on the 18th
floor of the Stock Exchange Building. has
had conversation with a vivscious, enthu-
siastic little woman
II the visitor was successful in an at
tempt TO see the superintendent it was
because he or she unconsciously passed
an examination before this same small
lady. She is Miss Ethel NJ. Ingram, sec
retary to the head of Philadelphia's edu-
cation system.
Miss Ingram is probably better ac-
ouainted with persons in all branches of
public life than any other woman in
Pennsylvania. She is furthermore an
extraordinarily keen judge of human ma
ture.
The Superintendent of Schools of this
city is sometimes obliged to receive more
visitors in an hour than the Mayor or
Director of Public Safety must see in
day. That is one of the peculiarities of
'the Job. Often there are note enough
chairs to accommodate all of the citizens
who for some reason, real or imaginary,
must see the superintendent at once.
However learned he may be, no Super
tntendent of Schools has ever learned how
to speak to more than ten persons on
ten different subjects simultaneously And
the unfortunate fact remains that there
are only "a hours in a day, even on the
18th floor of the Stock Exchange Build
ing.
In consequence of these conditions
Miss Ingram must be a greater diplomat
than Secretary Lansing. All of the Wis
itors explain that they must see the
Superintendent on important" busi-
ness. Often they insist that the very fate
of the school system itself depends upon
their ability to have short talk" with
the busy official. None of them will ad-
init that the business can be transacted
as well tomorrow as today, and an in
dignant taxpayer will even threaten a
protest to the Board of Education, If he
or she can not be admitted at once to
the sanctum sanctorum.

She describes it herself as a Job" But
the casual observer OF Miss Ingram's
activities will willingly concede that It
is profession" No lawyer must ever
be more suave than Miss Ingram; no
physician must act with greater decision;
no social worker must be more intimate

each grade of society and no psychologist
must have a greater understanding of
the types Of mind that make up human
ity.
To Separate the sheep from the goats"
is Miss Ingram's particular duty. And
she does it with such surprising success
that the three officials whom she has
served have been unstinted in their
commentators. written and informal.
Her first boss was DR.. Martin G.
BrumbauEh and upon his election to the
Governorship she was retained by DR..
William G. Jacobs. The latter died last
August and Miss Ingram's present supe-
rior is DR.. John P. CARRIER, acting Super
intendent of Schools. 1t has been whis-
pered about in educational circles that
the Governor has oered her a lucrative
place at Harrisburg, but that she refused
higher pay that she might remain in
Philadelphia. Miss Ingram is a society
girl.

crowds were little aware that a fortune
was contained in the Ga little kegs which
the wagons were hauling. The Govern

out the plans were quickly changed and

HOLDS HIMSELF ALOOF

DRESIDENT WILSON'S refusal of
Philadelphias invitation to
speak at the Quaker City's In
dependence Day celebration-one of
the big events of the year in Pennsyl-
Vania-recalls the fact that he declined
q similar invitation to attend the Get
tysburg anniversary encampment. and
was persuaded to ochange his mind only
after his political managers had told
him that such a course would he sui
cidal.
Evidently the President does not
care to mingle with his fellow citizens
more than he finds necessary. This is
one of his defects as President, and it
reflects his years of comparative seclu-
sion as a writer scholar and college
executive.
The people of the United States do
not like aloofness on the part of their
public officials any more than they
like the Chautauqua activities of Mr..
Bryan. They have an instructive dis
like that often amounts to distrust for
the man who cannot or will not "mix.
The public official who speaks in pub
lie only when he is a candidate is never
very popular with the masses.
