Defective St,oes Cause for Irregular
School Attendance.


Defective and unfit shoes are the
chief cause of the irregular attend
ance of many children in schools. in
the poorer districts, according to the
reports of the truancy division Of the
Milwaukee public schools. H. 0. Berg,
truancy officer, saw a novel and eff.
fective way out of the difficulty
He engaged an expert cobbler tc
open a class in the Detroit street So
cial street center to instruct the
fathers and older brothers of the pu-
pills to repair worn shoes. The plan
was successful from the start and it
is assured that regular classes in the
repairing OF footwear will start next
year.
The idea is to make the people see
the opportunity of aiding themselves
and assisting their children in attend
ing classes regularly. The materials
for the work are purchased by the ex-
tension division and sold to the per-
sons in the cobbling classes at cost.
They thus are receiving the instruc-
ton free and the leather at a small
cost.
The regular classes will start soon
after the beginning Of next year. A
two-hour class for Tuesday and Fri
day nights is planned.
1.-TWO or three lessons should make
person a fair cobbler, skillful
enough, at least, to repair the shoes

ture in helping people to help them.

COURT HOLDS FOR RAILWAYS
Need Not Stop TWO Trains Each Way
Each Day as Demand of Villagers.

More than 400 villages will be
deprived of the privilege of demand
ing that two passenger trains each
way stop every day at their stations
under decision of the United States
supreme court. kilograms received
by attorneys Of the Chicago, Burling-
ton and Quincy Railway company at
La Crosse announce that the federal
court has reversed the decision of the
Wisconsin supreme court and held as
unconstitutional chapter 483 of the
laws Of 1911. This law provided that
any village with over 200 inhabitants
might, on the application of one citi-
zen to the railroad commission, re-
quire two passenger trains each way
to stop every day. The appeal was
taken in the case Of the village of
Cochrane. The decision saves $780,
coo in penalties to the railroad com
pany.
