BRITISH SCHOOLS
MUST SUBMIT TO
CLERGY-TEACHERS

London, May 31-School teachers in
London and other parts of England.
through their respective organize
t1ons, have protested against the de-
c1slon of the municipal authorities to
employ clergymen and Non-confornist
ministers as teachers in the elemen-
tary schools.
AS preliminary to the decision of
the authorities. the Board of Educa-
t1on few months ago cancelled the
regulation which prohibited the en-
ployment of clergy and ministers on
the Stairs of schools. The change is
to be made for the period of the war
as means, it is said, of remedying
the serious shortage Of teachers.
me protest of the teachers is not
based on economic or professional
reasons but is made against the clergy
and ministers of military age. The
teachers have called the ministers and
clergy professional conscientious OBJ
jectors against military service

RINGLING BROS. SHOW
NEW KIND OF CIRCUS

The circus has been reiuvenated.
The worn out, threadbare feats that
have recently been seen are discard
ed. and circurdpm takes on a new
lease of life which will revoluti .nize
the tented show business Hereafter
it will not be known as the children's
delight, except at afternoon perfo1 n
ances. At night the jaded citizens
of every town will flock to the on
trance for they have been attracted
by the new note # energy.
That at least is the opinion of
broad-minded persons who watched
with amazement the conduct of the
Ringing Brothers. show last Tuesday
night. It is a show of wonders,
probably the greatest of these being
the fact that the management has
solved the problem of politeness and
were able to even make every person
in the 5000 present, man and wo-
man alike, take off their hats, under
the supervision of ushers who were
really "gentlemanly," which has long
been advertised but seldom Witness
ed.
The scenic investiture was perfect
and clean from start to finish. In
the spectacle where a ballet of 100
women danced, even the color
scheme of costumes had been consid-
cred Another big advance is the
stopping of all minor acts, while the
features are witnessed by the whole
audience. s+
Aside from the big program of en-
tertainment offered with an after
show of COWBOYS and riders from the
entire world, the circus is ever as it
was with novelties in the nenagerie
and the side show.
$ In the big, rings there were attrac-
tons aplenty, and the work perform
ed by the clowns was new and very
funny.
In Cinderella Bridgeport has
seen the greatest spectacle sta. sd
since the days of Irmec Kiralfe and
"Pompei. In this circus the city has
also seen the largest collection of ami
mails in America, and has witnessed
stars of the ring from every country
under the sun.

Jeffery o. Phelps Jr., Commissioner
ON domestic animals has received a
letter from Thomas F. Walsh, dog
warden in Norwalk, requesting the
commissioner to lift the quarantine In
that city. 1t is probable that Com
missioner Phelps will lift the quaran-
tire in practically all Of the towns
now under the order, before July /.
At present there are thirty nine cities
and towns in the state under quaran-
tine and lifting the quarantine will
affect all OF these except New Milford,
which was ordered quarantined only
three weeks ago as a result of an in
vasion of dogs with rabies. In Nor
walk, according to the. report of the
! dog warden, 200 dogs were killed dur
ing the epidemic and approximately
los dogs with rabies were discovered
1t is not known how many dogs in the
state were killed as result of the
epidemic. but it is thought that the
number will reach 500.
