MacBeard, trembling, covered be-

Yours very truly,
T. H. HARRIS,
Supt. of Public Education.
Report of Committee on Resolutions.
Your committee appointed to for
mulate the recommendations of this
convention upon the important mat
tiers which have been under consid-
Grafton by the convention beg to
submit the following: -
The transcendent duty Of the state
is to educate its people. During the
course Of the present great war in
which our country is engaged and
after the terms of peace there will
a more imperative need for highly
educated citizenry than ever be-
fore. Louisiana must provide for the
increased needs of it's children for
education. That the state is not pro-
viding adequate educational opportu-
mites for all is evidenced by the facts
that approximately fifty thousand
white children and greater number
of negro children were not last year
enrolled in any school, that an ex-
penditure Of approximately five mil
lions of dollars would be required to
build the schoolhouse now needed in
the state, and an annual increased
expenditure of three millions. of dol
lars is necessary for the proper
maintenance Of the schools.
In order for the state to meet the
demands for the right kind and
amount Of education for all children
and to justly distribute the opportu-
mites and burdens Of education, we
recommend that the necessary leg
islative and constitutional change be
made to provide
1. A school session of not less
than $50 days for all the children
in each parish with a compulsory at
tendance law covering the entire
session for children between the ages
Of seven and fourteen who have not
completed the elementary school
course, and which law shall be prop-

CHAPTER XVIII.
Mac6eard Finds His Destinv

He gazed at 1t still hypnotized: he
was trying to fight his way back into
consciousness. For a few moments
he did not know where he was. or
what was happening.
Then. gradually, he began to be
aware of his surroundings. He saw
the body at his feet, and the high cliffs
about him. And in the distance he saw
Clouts and Davies running toward the
mOtOrboat.
Ida stood watching Donald. She
was still hesitating. MacBeard had
found that he could start his engine.
His hand was on hers. Davies and
fannts were fifty PAGES away.

erly enforced through the employ
ment Of a sufficient number of com
petent officers.
,. That the state shall supply
one-fourth Of all funds required for
| public school buildings and for main
| tenance of the public schools in the
several parishes, and that parish
school boards be authorized to levy
uniform parish school tax suffi-
| clent to provide the other three
fourths of the funds for maintenance
and, further, that either through
taxes voted by the people of the
whole parish, or by districts, or
through vesting the parish school
boards with the authority to levy
taxes for buildings, the remaining
three-fourths Of the funds for build
ings be provided.
In the crisis that confronts the
nation our public school system
should be so operated as to serve the
country in the best possible way and
to the fullest extent. The schools
should contribute to the increased
production of food, so far as this is
possible without interfering with 9TH
er important educational activities of
the school; special emphasis should
be given in the schools to economy
and thrift and to methods of increas-
ing food production and the present
organization Of school clubs should
continued and enlarged Provision
should be made for the education of
the negro children in the elementary
branches of the common schools and
in industrial work The vacation pc
RODS of the school should be so fix
ed as to afford opportunity to the
children during vacation to assist the
work on the farms when their help
is most needed.
The state should provide some
means either in a separate institution
or in special departments in the
present state educational institutions
for the education and training of
teachers, especially for the rural
schools.

at the red marks left by his fingers

his life to her. He, the thief, the
outlaw, had conquered the world!
Why should he fulfill his compact to

He had at first intended to. He had
abandoned, under the sway Of his pas
sion for the girl, his dreams Of world
conquest. With Ida's love. he had even

weighed his new hopes with the past
and found them heavier.
Then the girls coldness, her indif.
ference. had convinced him that win.
ming love was quite different from in
venting scientific apparatus and dis
covering new laws. During the long,
silent voyage to Norway he had real,
lied that he could never win her. He
could embrace only a cold form whose
heart was another's.
And, with the awakening from his
dream, the worst in the man-if one
quality was worse than another-had
come to the top. He meant to keep
Ida and still achieve his purpose.
DOnald's maneuver in bringing the
herd to Norway by the submarine
method had completely deceived Mac
Beard. He had thought all along that
the monsters had followed his motor
boat in obedience to his tuning fork.
He had not heard the call Of the
queen. because its swift vibrations
were audible as sound only for very
limited distance, in spite Of their effect
upon the men Of the F55.

Daniels Rushes Plan
For New Destroyers
Will Submit $350,000,O00
Programme to Congress
This Week

WASHINGTON. Aug. 27.-Secretsry
Daniels expects to submit to Congress
this week estimates Of S350,000,000 for
the great number OF destroyers which
will make the American navy the lead
or Of the world in ships of that type.
The money will be used to expand
existing shipbuilding plants and also
to build additional engine and boiler
factories, as the destroyer programme
upon which the shipbuilding industry
is now engaged represents the full ca
pacity of the industry.
Navy designers are preparing plans
for standardized destroyer 10 facili-
tate quantity production of the most
successful weapon against submarines.
Parts of the engines will be assembled
from various factories at central plants
and forwarded to shipyards.
Details Of the number of dcstroyers
now under construction or the number
contemplated in the supplemental pro-
gramme are withheld.
New dcstroyers will be delivered so
rapidly beginning early next year that
the supply OF trained officers and men
will be taxed in putting them into com
mission. Means for training new crew :
will have TO be expanded proportion

Girl Waved German Flag
Banner Haunted Before Soldiers,
Who Have Her Arrested

The colors Of the Imperial German
government were Haunted before sol
dicrs who are stationed in the barracks
in Hoboken along the Hudson River
last night by Miss Lena Kirschning, a
German girl, who said she lives at 1
Poplar Street, Brooklyn. As she ran
along River Street, at o'clock, she
waved the Hohenzollern's emblem into
the air, and shouted again and again,
deutschland Uber Allies"
Her actions caused a large crowd TO
gather, and led Charles j. O'Connor, of
the United States Medical Corps, to
request Patrolman Martin Crosby to
arrest her. She will be arraigned this
morning before Recorder Carsten on d
charge of dsorderly conduct. Miss
Kirschning, whose Teutonic accent Is
striking, said she has been IN the
United States for sixteen years.
