In most places where these old ireplaces and

HEADS MILWAUKEE, SCHOOLS

Mrs. Meta Berger, Milwaukee's
first woman president of the school
board, while making jelly in her
kitchen, told what she expected to
accomplish in regard to Milwaukee's
schools. Mrs. Berger is the wife of
Victor L. Berger, the first Socialist
elected to congress.
The new school head turned the
gas low under the Jelly, motioned
the reporter to chair, and, with one
eye on the boiling kettle, outlined her
plans.

PORTUGAL'S NEW PRESIDENT

DR.. Theophilo Braga, who was
elected president of Portugal when
Doctor Arriaga was forced to resign
is man of high reputation in the
world of letters as well as of politics.
A few years ago Doctor Braga
wrote this simple sketch of his life:
"At the age of three he lost his
mother. He was tormented by ter
rible stepmother until 1851, when he
left his fathers house and went to
Coimbra, then the only university in
Portugal, with small sum which
he had received for a volume of
verses he published in 1859. At
Coimbra his life was an obscure strug-
gle, for lack of means Of existence.
He bore up in this struggle with un-
conquerable pride.
I'm 1872 he presented himself as
a candidate for the professorship of
modern European literature at the
higher Lisbon classes. What terri

"OLD FROZEN FACE"

Andrew Peters, assistant secre-
tary of the treasury, has the most
completely immobile set of features
in the entire administration. Having
confessed to earning the title Of "Old
Frozen Face" while he was a highly
useful member of the Massachusetts,
militia, Mr. Peters is now able to
meet any emergency without a change
of the slightest facial muscle.
Once upon time he went fish
ing in the wilds of Canada and on his
way back he occupied an upper berth.
Before dawn an ambitious engineer
running an engine to train behind
that in which Mr.. Peters was sleep
ing, took it into his head to butt the
Peters train out of the way. He
showed on full steam and crashed into
the rear OF the train ahead.
The Peters legs in pajamas swung
out of the upper berth in precise
and unconfused manner. Next the
Peters inmobile face appeared at the
curtain, looking to the rear, where

of the various laws relating to build

not, of course, promise immunity from
the provisions OF the law, but IL can
promise that any case presented by the

at the hands Of the authorities, and IT
may we'll be that circum stances will be

However that may be, the Allied

Commissioner is 10 enforce the law as

that the commissioner and his staff are

to save the owners from unnecessary
hardships when the interests OF the
