PUTS BOYS COMFORT FIRST
Jersey Education Board Says That
Collars May Be Discarded
on Hot Days.

Trenton, N. J.-Schoolboys in New
Jersey need not wear collar in warm
weather and they may turn under the
neck bands of their shirtwaists. This
decision, reached by the state board
of education, put an end to the con.
troversy that has ragged since sum-
mer's bareback last September, and
also reverses the findings of the state
commissioner of education.
The case was that of Van Lear and
Robertson Turner, sons of Frank V. L..
Turner of Merchantville. During the
unreasonable weather last fall, the
boys, who are ten and thirteen years
old, respectively, were sent to school
without collars and with the neck
bands of their shirtwaists turned un-
der. The teacher, Miss Sarah Rog-
ers, promptly sent them home. Their
mother refused to change their at
tire for several days, during which
time they were denied admission to
the school, although they reported
each morning.
Turner appealed to the Merchant
vile school board and then to the
state school commissioner, both of
whom upheld the teachers action. In
reversing them the state board holds
that the teachers mandate was an
unreasonable and unwarranted exer-
else of power.

BILL FOR A PARK SERVICE
Representative kent's Measure for
Proper Management of National
Fairgrounds Likely to Pass.

Neutrality-suspicious. of the measures
before congress that seems likely to
be adopted is the bill for the estab-
lishment of national park service.
introduced by Representative Kent. 1t
provides that the service shall be
part of the department of the interior
and under the charge of director ap-
pointed by the secretary, and that this
director shall have the supervision,
management and control of the sever
al national parks, national monuments,
the Hot Springs reservation in Arkan-
sas, and such parks, monuments and
reservations as shall be established In
the future.
That the bill is in the nature OF
conservation measure Is shown by
section which authorizes the secretary
of the interior to sell or dispose OF
timber in cases where the cutting OF
timber is requisite for controlling at
tacks of insects or disease or for con-
serving the scenery; and that priv
ileges, leases and permits shall be
granted only for the accommodation
of the public, and that no action shall
be detrimental to the fundamental OBJ
ject of these aforesaid parks, monu'
ments and reservations, which object
is to conserve the scenery and the
natural and historic objects therein
and to provide for the enjoyment OF
said scenery and objects by the public
in any manner and by any means that
will leave them unimpaired for the en-.
joyment of future generations"

Montenegrins Remember.

The round cap, or kappa" worn by
Montenegrin soldiers, is history of
their country in miniature. In color
it is a vivid crimson, but it has a
deep black border, which only leaves
small crown of the foundation color
visible. The black border is a sign
of mourning for the terrible battle of
Kossovo, when the old Montenegrin
and Serb empires were overthrow by
the Turks, and their armies annihilat-
ed. The red crown signifies the field
of blood" of the same great fight.
When Constantinople falls. and their
hereditary enemies are finally driven
out of Europe. then. and not till then,
will the black border be removed, and
the KAPPA" be all red. On the red
crown. in one corner, are five semi
circles in gold. They symbolic first
the five centuries that have elapsed
since Kossovo was fought, and, sec
ondly. the five colors of the rainbow,
the sign of hope that one day the glo.
ries of the old Montenegrin empire
will be restored.

CLOCK is BURGLAR ALARM
When 1t Sruck at 500, Mrs. Mary

Caught the Thief.

Mrs. Mary Joerder was in the dining
room at her home in New York at $3.50

slightest occasion for striking" she
later told the police, land l went to
investigate"
Going to the parlor, Mrs. Joerder
discovered that the hands of the time
piece had nothing to do with the I'M
timely striking-it was the hands of
negro, who was starting to fee with
the clock
Mrs. Joerder, who says burglars
never had frightened her, grasped the
negro by the throat and compelled him
to sit on the floor until her son.
Charles, came from the dining room
to her aid.
The negro was held captive while
neighbors summoned the police. Then
the negro was taken out of the house,
minus the clock.

GETS $500 FOR OLD BOTTLES
Old Grain Bags and other Curious Ar

to Oregon Man.

Hood River, Ore.-With Oregon dry
it is safe to predict that history will
not repeat in the case of one crop
harvested in the Hood River valley
when H. Gross, local purchaser of
junk, collected and sold 1000 dozen
whisky and beer bottles. The bottles
were sold for an average of 20 cents
dozen, and brought the junk man
$500.
Other junk collected and sold by
Gross the past year were: Fifty thou
sand old grain bags, 10000 used auto
mobile tires, 1900 old rubber shoes,
5000 pounds of brass, copper and 9TH
er metals, 5000 pounds of rags, $4,000
pounds of scrap iron. 1000 pounc> OF

1900 pounds of peits.

port will be more interesting on this
point. The 1914 report says in part:
while the production of gunpowder
decreased by 5,177,664 pounds in guam
tity and $75S,972 in value, or by 4O.2
per cent and 43.7 per cent, respective
ly, the production of smokeless pow
der almost doubled, but the figures for
it cannot be shown separately without
disclosing the operations of individual
establishments. The output of this
product, therefore, is combined with
that of guncotton, or pyroxylin, and
the total included in other explos-
ives
"The production of smokeless pow
der, guncotton or pyroxylin, and
other explosives increased from 81
1929 pounds to 26,4O0,071 pounds. or
by 1884 per cent. This amount in
cludes the production of establish
ments operated by the federal govern
ment. The output of this class OF ex-
plosives by commercial establishments
increased from 7,464,825 pounds, val
ued at $3,913,7S7, in 1909. to 21,327, 6S4
pounds, valued at Sill, 406, in 1914,
the quantity increasing by 1857 per
cent and the value by ST. per cent.
There were III establishments In
operation in 1914, S3 were in Pennsyl-
vania, II in Ohio, 8 in Illinois, in
New Jersey, in West Virginia. 6 in
Oklahoma, in California, in Mis-
souri,, in Kansas. in New York, 2
each in Alabama, Colorado, Indiana,
Massachusetts, Tennessee, Washing

Can Meet Home Demand.
Under war stress it has been esti-
mated that the United States would
need 30,000,000 pounds of powder per
year, and a pound of cotton for a
pound of smokeless powder would
mean an enormous consumption of the
staple in this country alone. The total
capacities Of the plants in this coun-
try. considering the probable output
of other classes of explosives, is hard
ly equal to a wartime demand of the
United States, and while it has been
the chief purpose of those who would
have the United States manufacture
it's own munitions, to reduce the cost
to the government, the certainty of
supply has been figured upon.
The South produced less than 49,
00O, OCO bales last season. Reports from
the states indicate that the production
the coming season will be held down
also. AS soon as the European war is
over there will be demand for cotton
in the minds of the experts, but until
that period approaches they say there
is no good reason for increasing the
