CARD system TO keep TAB

Charles A. Warner. secretary OF
the State Board Of Education has is
sued the following statement:
AT present only an accident or
piece Of extra good fortune makes il
possible TO learn pupils school re-
cord after the pupil has quit school,
IN almost any public school outside
Of Wilmington. Yet such records are
frequently asked for. are frequently
needed. and the inability to get them
imposes serious loss OF benefit upon
young people.
I'm each school there should be "A
system of card records One set of
cards to contain the list Of the pupils
now in school. the card should show
the pupils complete record, year by
year. as he passes through the school.
Another set Of cards should be made
up of the cards OF those who once at
| tended the school but left IL. Another
set Of cards should be used to give t.
pupils when they go from one school
to another. to be called transfer cards.
"The transfer card should contain

/ ing one school to enter another
would in themselves be boon to
children who change schools during

NEW YORK. June 21.-The theory
that meteorological phenomena re-

by certain students of weather of the
past Of the United States. particularly
the weather of that section included

timating that the cycle of icicles may
be celebrating its centenary pretty

Just 100 years ago. he says, came
the great cold summer" There were
eighteen inches of snow in certain
sections in June. ice in July and frosts
in August. and the crops were ruined.
The newspapers of the day Nh Wake

EXPERT BAGGAGE SNASHER2
GATHER TO DISCUSS trunk
By The United Press.

AfN TIE A.AlNNA Nf@rs
BOSTON. Mass. June 21.-Amer-
icas expert baggage smashers con-
vened here today TO talk about your
trunk First glance at the gathering
proved that the baggage smasher at
home is not the baggage smasher on
holiday.
The baggage smasher at home is
very tough In his native environ
ment. trundling hand trunk through
canyons of brass-bOund luggage. he
affects a uniform cap over one ear
and a pencil over the other. He car
ries one shoulder high and talks in a
rough voice out of one corner Of his
mouth
At home. in short. the baggage
smasher is a man all twisted up; but
here. today. he is slick and spick;
and just looking at him you wouldn't
suspect that he would smash the dick
ems out of anything from a hand
satchel to an armored battleship, If it
came in as luggage.
No smasher could be found who
would explain how it is that baggage
men can find an individual trunk so
quickly in the stacks and stacks of
them that daily roll in and out Of the
I great railroad stations Of the country.
But they do it; and they must
have credit for that.

CHICAGO FED. OF LABOR GIVES
BOOST TO WILSoN-DUNNE
Labor, through the Chicago Fed
Grafton Of Labor and its 100000 or
gained workers, put a stamp of ap-
prOVal on Pres. Wilson and Gov.
Dunno yesterday. Hughes and Low
den were termed candidates of big
biz.
Practically without discussion and
without dissenting word, the pair
were marked for the backing of the
working man and working woman in
a. resolution passed yesterday.
The cause of the common worker
is in peril if the Hughes-Lowden
combination goes over, the labor
men pointed out. All that Wilson and
Dunno have put through in the in
terest of the masses will be wiped
out if we get four years of Hughes
and Lowden.
The resolution follows:
1T is in this hour of dire peril that
we, regardless of party affiliations,
make our appeal to union men to
consider on the basis of their &C
complishments for labor Woodrow
Wilson for president and Edward F.
Dunno for governor.
1--WE hope these candidates will re-
ceive the careful consideration of all
men and women who believe that So
cial justice can only be secured
through improvement of working
conditions and the general elevation
of standards of life among the toll
ing masses.
Charles Evans Hughes and Frank
o. Lowden are really the candidates
of the predatory interests that live by
the exploitation of the people by
using the government as an instru-
ment to accomplish their purpose.
Woodrow Wilson and Edward F.
Dunno are representatives of the
common people and of the spirit of
the times They stand for new and
