Education Board to Get
Gary Specifications Soon

Plans for changes in schools Of this
city which the introduction OF the Gary
system will necessitate are TO be pre-
sented to the Board of Education with
in ten days. This was the purport Of a
resolution adopted last night at meet
ing in Controller Prendergast's office
in the Municipal Building, which was
attended by the committees on tax APP
preparation and education of the Board
of Estimate and the Board of Educa-
tons special committee on vocational
schools and industrial training.
John Martin, chairman of the latter
body, introduced a motion to the effect
that the number of school teachers
should not be reduced in 1915 and that
the Board of Education and the Board
of Superntendents should keep control
of the curriculum. He also urged that
nothing determined upon should be re-
garded as a criticism of DR.. William l..
Fingers school plan.
Mr.. Prendergast termed this reso!u-
ton impractical and introduced the fol-
lowing, which was accepted:
Resolved. that the Board Of Super
intendents and the superintendent of
Buildings be instructed to present to
the Board of Education within ten
days plans for such physical changes
as may be necessary in thos) build
ings where, at the present time, there
is part time. in order TO accommodate
those buildings to the operation Of the
duplicate work-study-andplay plan,
with an approximate estimate of such
changes"
These will be discussed at another
meeting to be held in the Con-
troller's Office ten days hence.

ILLINOIS "WETS"
ATTACK SUFFRAGE
Start New Move Against Law
Permitting Women to Vote
on Local Option.

Chicago. Oct. Internationally
Of the women suffrage act, which has
put life into "dry" campaigns, is under
attack again. The latest move Is con-
sidered a sequel to Mayor Thompson's
Sunday closing order. The Illinois Su,
preme Court in session at Springfield
is TO be asked to reopen the issue ana
hear arguments against the validity OF
the act, which grants women the right
to vote on local option questions, and
for mayors and other officers created
by statute. -.
This case is known as Dean Franklin,
appellant, VS.. Josie Westfall and Albert
B. Fuhr. Franklin was the Progress
sive party candidate for Judge Of the
CITY Court of Macomb. and was defeat
ed by womens votes. Mr.. Westfall,
the Republican nominee, won. The
male vote alone would have given the
election to Franklin. The Democratic
nominee was Mr.. Fuhr, mentioned as
one of the appellees.
Messrs. Mayer, Austrian and Al
schuler argue that in the case decided,
in which the Supreme Court held the
suffrage act valid, the higher court
did not pass on its constitutionality,
merely standing on decisions given in
other cases in which it was held that
the Legislature had right TO confer
the right of suffrage relative TO Offices
created BIZ the Legislature.

helper, William Kafah, fifteen years
old, of 300 Oakland Street, jumped just
as the machine plunged over the walk.
They were picked up unconscious and

3. Mr.. Griffin tries TO give the I'm.

nc time are more than one-quarter OF
the children outside the school plant

plan provides.
6. As for the danger OF religious
disputes in the schools, does Mr.. Crit
fin really think that school like the
Gary school, which excludes religion
entirely from the schools but permits
children to 20 out to the churches Tor
religious instruction, is likely TO cause
more controversy than one which re-
tains the practice of Scripture reading,
hymn singing and prayer?
7. The experience of the visitor who
found academic work not to begin TIL
2:30 p. m. is inexplicable except on the
theory that he did not arrive till noon.
The truth is that in no class OF the
New York schools now operating on
the Gary plan does the academic work
begin later than 1910 q. M, and the
total daily time for academic work IN
these schools amounts to 210 minutes,
which is equal TO the average daily full
time academic work for the elementary
schools of the city.
8. There is nothing to substantiate
the charge that the Gary plan encour-
ages truancy. The actual attendance

His Way of Stating Views

HUXLEY MOTTO
TAKEN AS GUIDE
Intent 10 Stifle Free Speech De-
MED in Resolution Adopted
al Secret Meeting.

.c...-, s,s- co-rs,rondeni o. TIE Tribune
Philadelphia, Oct ii-Dr. Scott Near
ing will not be taken back by the Oni-
,-srsitv Of Pennsylvania; there is no
intention by the board Of trustees TO
suppress free speech; the reason Tor
nv hearings dismissal is that his par
,icular way Of stating in public hls
,adisal views makes him unfit for
s,r.bcr service at the university.
These arc the chief points Of state
men, issued tonight by the trustees
s,llowing a meeting at which the Near
nc controversy was considered.
According 70 individual members Of
the board, this declaration closes the
incident as far as they are concerned.
The resolution setting forth the atti-
tud, OF the board was introduced by
bingham Buckley Morris and was
unanimously adopted. Just before this
resolution went through the trustees
approved n shorter resolution intro
duced BY Wharton Barker. the pro-
Nearing member Of the board, enunc'at-
ing the principle Of academic freedom
Of speech in a quotation from Huxley.
Wharton Barker Pleased.
As far as could be learned, no direct
issue was made as 10 whether Professor
Nearing should be reinstated. M
Barker was apparently satisfied with
the adoption Of his resolution, as ne
came away from the meeting IN lovlai
mood. The statement OF the board
says:
"Becarse Of the decision Of the board
at it, last meeting not TO renew Dr.

ton School which expired by Its terms
at the end Of the academic year an
assumption has been made and clrcu-
lated that this action indicated policy

the truth.

lean HENRI FABRE,
SCIENTIST, DEAD
French Entomologist Was Reck-
oned by Darwin One of the
Worlds Greatest Men.

Orange. France. Oct. l1.-Jean Henri
Fabre, the entomologist, is dead. He
was born in France in 1923.
Henri Fabre remained almost un-
known to the world until he was over
eighty years old, when suddenly he be-
came recognized as one Of the great
est scientists of the times. He spent
his life exploring the insect world.
Fabre's life was one of poverty, sac
rifice, struggle and perseverance. He
was born of humble parents at Saint
Icons, France, in 1928. His youth was
a constant struggle for education.
His first adventure into natures Sc
crets began at his fifth year, when he
sought 20 learn how the cricket pro-
duced its chirping sound. His interest
in insects never tagged, although he
started his career as teacher of mathe-
MATES in a school at Ajaccio. 1t was
there he met the celebrated botanist,
Moquin Tandon, who gave him this ad-
vice:
Leave your mathematics and get to
the beast"
He followed the advice. but directed
his attention TO insects, and after years
of study he wrote the Life of the
Spider" and other books on insects,
some in a. enhancing a vein as novel.
Though Fabre vertically loved his in
sects, he realized and deplored their
deeds Of lust, cruelty and murder.
Darwin, Mistral, Maeterlinck, all
masters in their sciences, were his
friends. Maeterlinck, in speaking Of
Fabre, declared him to be zone of the
most profound scholars, the purest
writer and one of the finest poets of
the century just past" Darwin reck-
oned him among the greatest of the
worlds chosen men. For years Fsbre
held the title of "The Insects Homer"
bestowed on him by Victor Hugo, an
other stanch friend.
Although poverty and care had
logged Fabre's life, the last years of
it were provided for by pension from
the French government. II was Fred
eric Mistral, the great French poet, who
urged this relief to the man whom
France owes every assistance from
every point of view" Before his Ceath
a monument had been erected in his
honor in Avignon.
Fabre was a Chevalier of the Legion
of Honor and held many scientific de
grees. His Souvenirs Entomologiques"
passed through ten editions and was
crowned By the French Academy.

Despondent Tailor Hangs Himself Out

Oscar Selikowitz, a tailor, hanged
himself from the fire escape in the rear

tied a piece Of clothes line about his
neck and. after fastening the other end
to the fire escape, jumped off.
Mrs. Mary Sperry, who lives on the
floor below, went to her fire escape to
take in some clothes from the line and
saw Selikowitz's feet dangling just
above ner head.
