Teachers at County Institute
Consider Importance of
Correct Speaking

Yesterday was English Day" at the
Jefferson county teachers institute, and
the Importance of correct speaking and
writing was stressed.
Miss Claudia Crumpton of Montevallo,
teacher of English in the Alabama Girls
Technical institute gave an illustrated
lecture to the members of the State AS
ISOLATION of English Teachers. She spoke
principally on English in the classroom
and urged that each teacher whether in
structor in history. mathematics or any
other subject become an English teacher
also. The Importance of cultivating cor.
rect speaking among the students was
emphasized by Miss Crumpton She said
teachers should give careful attention to
the language students used in reciting,
and see that their sentences were not
only dramatically correct, but clearly
and correctly spoken.
Following the lecture by Miss Crump-
ton, Miss Bessie Merrill of the Central
High School faculty demonstrated the
possibilities of the use of the stereoscope
and a Victrola in connection with Eng
lish recitations.
Miss Merrill gave AN Hour With Ma
ture,' Victrola lantern illustration in

Sister of President
Gradually Grows Worse

New London, September 12l-President
Wilson decided tonight to return to his
summer home, Shadow Lawn, Long
Branch, tomorrow morning. He was ad-
vised by physicians attending his sister.
Mrs. Annie E. Howe, who is critically i'll
here and constantly under the influence
of opiates, that she might linger in her
present condition for several days.
The President expects to leave here on
the yacht Mayflower. No definite hour
has been set for his departure. Mrs.
Wilson will accompany him.
After a consultation with DR.. Fl. VI. LIE,
DR.. Edward P. Davis of Philadelphia to-
night issued a statement as follows:
Mrs. Howe's physicians have told the
President that she will no longer be able
to recognize him clearly or comprehend
his visits, as she must be kept almost
constantly under the influence of opiates.
While Mrs. Howe cannot recover. her
life may continue for several days or
more, and in view of these facts and the
urgent duties devolving upon the Presi-
dent, the physicians have advised him
to remain no longer. 1t Is the President s
intention to join Mrs. Howe's children
at the earliest possible moment when
the end of her illness comes. In her weak
condition the visits of relatives or friends
so excite her that from now on no one
will be allowed to converse with her.
