HELPING THE BAD BOY.
Mr.. Whiskitts, !" M

Boston experimental with q new
Itruancy plan last year which pro-
duced such good results that II is
mot only likely to be permanently
adopted in that city, but copied by
others. 1t began with the abolish
ment of the parental school, which
has been a feature of the system OF
public instruction in most cities for
the last decade.
1t was found that over sixty per
cent of the boys attending schools
were either wholly or partially or
phans and that in each case the tru-
ancy was largely due to some lack In
she surroundings of the hoy. The ex-
pertinent was based upon the assump-
ton that the average normal healthy
boy will not stay away from school,
providing it and other conditions sur
rounding him are in harmony. When
they are not it is worth some ind1vid-
ual effort upon the part of the public
education officials responsible for him
to harm onize them.
When the truancy school was closed
and the boys returned to the regular
class rooms, each was upon probation
under the personal supervision Of
someone to whom he was required to
report periodically and to whom he
could complain If he was not satisfied
with any feature of his school work.
Under such an arrangement cons1d-
cradle amount of adjustment OF the
regulation courses is likely to be re-
auired to meet the individual need.
but 1T is felt that the interests OF she
boys render this worth while.

DR.. ANNA SHAW TO END
HER SUFFRAGE REIGN
President of National Ass0cia-
ton to Give All of Her
Time to Campaign.

Or. Anna Howard Shaw announced
yesterday that she would not lie a candi-
date for reelection as president OF the
National American Woman Suffrage AS
ISOLATION at the annual convention in
Washington. December 1919. She has
been president for eleven years.
S~uffragists who heard OF DR.. Shaw's
decision were keenly disappointed until
they learned that she desired to devote
her entire time TO outside campaign
work. In the last four years she has
made campaign tours of Ohio, Michigan.
Wisconsin. Oregon, Arizona, Kansas,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana,
Nevada. Nebraska. Missouri, New Jcr-
sey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and
New York. This year she made 1913
speeches In the four States I'm which
tho suffrage question was voted upon,
In an open letter TO the board of the
association Or. Shaw said During the
past year I have been INCREASINGLY con-
scious OF the growing response TO the
spoken word on behalf of this cause
OF ours. Because Of the unparalleled
large audiences drawn 10 our standard
everywhere l ave become convinced
that my highest service to the suffrage
movement can best be given II / am
relieved OF the eXacting duties of the
presidency so that l may be free TO
engage in campaign work. since each
year brings it's quota of campaign States.
Therefore after careful consideration
] have decided not to stand for re-
election TO the Office of president. I
have deferred making this announce
ment until the campaigns we're ended,
but now that IT is time To consider
the work for the coming year ! feel
1t my duty to do So"
Dir. Shaw expresses a willingness to
retain membership In the board II the
auxiliary societies so desire.
