In the Fall

In the fall tired fathers fancy
eravely turns to thoughts of coal,
and he sheds nine kinds of briny
as he sizes up his roll. He has
thirty-seven dollarsVtwo of them
are plugged with zinc-and the
outlook for the winter is extreme
" on the blink. And he hears the
children clamor for lot of win
ter duds, and his wife makes
requisition for some bacon and
some spuds; and his lovely grown
up daughter wants no poverty in
hers-she must have a stylish
bonnet and a costly set of furs,
and the son will need some money
as he studies for the bar; thirty
seven hard-earned dollars won't
take father very far. Father has
80 many problems that his hair
has fallen out, yet it's safe to bet
a kopeck on that patient, daunt-
less scout. Somehow he will buy
the bacon, somehow he'll provide
the spuds, Susan Jane will have
her sables, and the kids will have
their duds; there'1l be coal to feed
the furnace, there'll be comfort in
the shack, while tired father fights
his battle with eight stitches in
his back. WALT MASON.

OLD LDNEWSPAPERS
AID TO EDUCATION
Receipts, From Sales by Chill
dren to Supplement Vaca-
ton School Fund.

Old newspapers are going to help
many Washington school children in
getting an education If tentative plans
being considered today by officials Of
the public schools are put into opera
tion. BY the plans being considered
today the money which Is raised
| through the collection and sale OF old
papers by the schools. as suggested by
The Star, will be devoted in part to
supplementing the congressional ap-
preparation for carrying on vacation
school, work
In previous years this work has been
carried on through funds raised by the
children for playground activities. En-
tertainments, festivals. lunches and
motion picture benefits were given as
a means Of raising the desired money.
AS a result teachers had to devote con-
siderable energy to work which did not
deal directly with the education Of the
children under their charge. Also.
schoolwork was often interrupted to
greater or lesser degree by the prep
aratonS.
Congressional Fund Inadequate.
Congress has made an appropriation
for carrying on the work next sum-
mer, but this was not large enough to
do all that those in charge Of the
schools had hoped to do. By means Of
supplementing this fund with the
money raised through the sale Of the
old papers, however, it is considered
probable that practically everything
desired may be accomplished.
One of the chief things which the
present administration has been try
| ing to accomplish is the extension OF
summer school work on the play
| grounds. Supt. E. L. Thurston today
| said 1t was probable that a large pro-
portion of the money raised will go for
\ this purpose and that through the old
papers summer schools may be opened
which otherwise it might not have
been possible to conduct.
Relief to Teachers.
He also expressed his satisfaction
that no longer would teachers and
pupils have to work up" plays and
| entertainments to raise money and sell
tickets for the same.
This plan will do away with the
strain of entertainments" said Mr.
Thurston today. This has been great
stress on the schools and has fire.
| quently caused interruptions. The old
paper plan offers a solution to a big
problem.
