Conveniences for the Autumn Camp

- OR late summer and early fall
T. camping there are numberless
new conveniences on the market
which the campers who have tried them
say make the two weeks vacation in
the woods more worth while. The au-
tomobile makes it possible to reach
camp quickly, and every comfort may
be slowed in the machine without
thought Of local expressman or whether
there is a railroad station in the par
ticular locality where you desire to
camp. Still better, if you do not like
the first place, a few moments run
will take you and your outfit to fresh
fields, so perhaps the automobile is the
greatest of camp conveniences.
The automobile tent is Of first con-
sideration. 1t packs in brown canvas
bag with collapsible steel tent poles.
The guy ropes when it is erected lash
it to the car, and it takes but ten min
utes to put it up. The entire kitchen

Clothes hangers that clamp around

for the women are designed especially
for camping; the woman's skirt is made

it can be buttoned to form a divided

the major operations. But it is never
in the American hospitals that that
occurs, for they are careful enough to
see to it that all the dressing of
wounds is done by doctors, and not
nurses. In these hospitals, too, there
is dentistry. The poor fellows need

on Pensions, appointed by the Mayor,
has made its reports and recommended
tons. and until after the Board of Es-
innate and Apportionment has APP
proved a proposed pension act to take
the place of the various acts now in
effect"
Commenting on the pension muddle
yesterday, a member of the Board of
Education said;
"The teachers pension fund has
come down TO a matter of Let George
do it, but nobody seems to want to be
George"
"The fund is bankrupt chiefly because
the amounts Of annuitles were in ex-
cess of the income of the retiring fund.
Upon that fact the Controller bases his
statement that all pensions granted
since September l, 1918, are illegal.
But he neglects to observe Section 80,
clause 19a, of the bylaws of the Board
of Education, which states:
"'All members of the teaching and
supervising staff (including members
Of the Board of Examiners) who will
have reached the age of seventy years
on or before the first day of September
in any year., or on or before the first
day of February in any year, shall be
retired on pension, provided they are
eligible for such retirement
"The age limit automatically retires
teachers without any action on the
part of the board or desire on the part
of the teacher
"If the pension law takes precedence
over the bylaws of the Board of Edu-
cation, then those pensions granted
since September /, 1918, are illegal, but
that is a matter for lawyers to de-
termine-not laymon.
Controller Prendergast has tahen a
time to bring his charges when the
persons who have authority to answer
him are all out of the city. His charges
concerning teachers who have married
since their retirement do not have to
be answered, in my opinion, by the
Board, because the Board of Education
has no authority over the teachers
after they have been retired" the mem
Der of the Board (who did not wish his
name used, said in conclusion.
At the Board of Education IL was
learned that President Churchill would
issue statement shortly which would
include answers to all the Controllers
charges.

"Then, too, there is another Spartan

is all this but the drilling. There is far
too much work for the women without
this there. The women are working
seriously, for the French woman is
serious. She is not only now showing
that she is something more than a friv-

turn All pension moneys received If the
plan Of paying back salaries were
adopted. .
The charge Of apathy on the part Of
the Board Of Education to teachers
pensions was denied by several mem
hers Of that body. They explained
their silence with this paragraph from
the minutes Of the meetings Of the
