Prof. H. Clay Marks, supervising
principal Of the Daytona public
schools, has the following to say in
relation to the retirement from the

sOr:
Three newspapers in VolIsia county
have published that it is the duty of
the governor to appoint member of

ton. of which board the governor is
ex-OfficiO a member.
The entire county and especially
the people Of Daytona regret exceed
ingly the resignation of so valuable
a man as Mr.. Crouch. 1t will be diff
cult to find man as wei! qualified 70
I'LL SO responsible a position. How.
ever, 1t Is now up to DaytOna to rec
ommend the appointment of suita
BILE man, and this man should be con

LETTER OF NATIONAL EDUCA-
TiONAL SOCIETY SHOWS CITY
AMONG MOST MODERN IN ITS
PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM.

The majority of Daytona people
realize and appreciate the systematic
way in which the public school of the
city has been conducted since H. Clay
Marks has been supervising principal
but few or none know that MIR. Marks
has introduced some ideas which will
very probably become national IN
their use.
Among these new features is the
cooperative hygiene blank. which is
filed out each month by each teach
er and parent, giving a full report of
the health and bodily habits of the
pupils. On receiving one OF these
blanks to fill regarding his ten-year-old
| boy, Percy Warner, Attorney G. c,
Warner, of the well known New York
firm, Holt, Warner & Gailliard, be-
came interested and wrote Mr.. Marks
asking for q few sample blanks. Mr
tSxvarner also wished to know to what
! extent the plan of cooperative hygi
enc has been adopted throughout the
country. where it originated and how
it can best be developed. He also
sent congratulations to the principa
upon what he had heard as to Day
tona schools.
Mr.. Marks Immediately replied tina
although the plan had originated will
him, he could not tell how many 9th
er schools had adopted it. He furthe
said that such a plan can be used TO
other studies and gave details con
corning the development of such
plan.
On communication with school au
thorities, Mr.. Warner received the fo
lowing letter from the National Sc
ciety for the Promotion of Industria
education:

SECTION DElANO-
DAYTONA ROAD

At the invitation of C. F. Burgman,
new member from this district OF the
board of county commissioners, . rep
resentative of the News accompanied
him on little excursion this morning
to that section of the DeLand road
through the hammock lands east OF
Mount Ararat which has been giving
trouble because of the soft condition
of the ground.
The improvement of this piece Of
roadway was among the first Official
acts of Commissioner Burgman, who
realized the necessity for having this
main connection with the county seat
and other interior points in passable
condition. He secured the couty con-
victs earlier in the week and had the
roadbed in this section leveled up with
the idea of putting the Proudfo0t
roller over it today and then covering
the surface of the road with sand from
Mount Ararat
Rain again last night. however. had
so softened the road that it was i'm
practible to put the roller upon It and
it was decided to have the c0nvicts
| fill the ruts and cover the roadway
with a blanket of sand several inches
| in depth, or as much as was found
necessary to absorb the surplus mois-
| ture and form a crust or surface that
would not readily cut through. This
is undoubtedly the only way to better
the road under present conditions, as
it is impossible to deal with the situa
ton in any other manner while rains
continue to keep the ground in a sat
urated condition.
On arriavl at Mt. Arrat this morn
ing the convicts were found gathered
there while the teams, five or six In
number. were travelling the bOggy
roadway to the east end of the fill, in
stead of beginning at the point near
est to the place where the sand wat
obtained Mr.. Burgman got this

CAPTURE OF BRAllA
TO CHANGE RuMANIAN
CAMPAIGN materially
TEUTONS TAKE FIVE RUMANlAN
TOWNS BESIDES BRAlLA AND
REACH sERETH RIVER AT TWO
POINTS.
(The Associated Press.)

The Rumanian campaign reached a
new phase with the capture of Braila
by the Teutons and their rapid ad-
vance on Galatz, clearing DObrudja of
Russians and further German success
ses in Moldavia. The Braila bridge
head is an outlying defense of the
Sereth line which the Russians still
hold. Galatz is behind this line.
Reports from Berlin say that five
Rumanian> towns besides Braila have
been captured by the TeutOns and the
Sereth river reached at two points. 1t
was also made public that the German
troops yesterday stormed the Russian
defenses on an extended front south
of Trotus valley near the Moldavian
frontier.
Entente officers believe the Rus
slams will withdraw from Sereth to thG

that the John Anderson highway had

Mr. Lapp also said, while speaking
of roads, that after driving over the
various kinds of roads in use in Jack
