Heroisn of Women

They followed our Lord to Calvary with tears: they were last at the cross, and first at the sepulchre. Where mar tyrs' fires were fercely burning, and scaffolds flowed with blood, and prisons overhowed with captives: women have not showed themselves to be the weaker sex.
 I could relate many circumstances, from early history to the present time. We can see a woman on a sinking ship, where her life was not at stake. They begged her to get into a lifeboat. She said: 'No,' to her husband and officers, i've have lived together, and we will die together" So much as to say: We will stay with the ship. and when she gets to her last port we will leave our material bodies with the marital ship, and with unhinching faith in God will soar through regions yet un known"

the fact that many other cities long
ago abolished early morning deliveries,
Mr.. Simpson said:
Looking at the matter from hu-
name standpoint, the early morning
delivery in the winter appears as a
relic of the stone age Of the milk busi-

The statement issued by Mr.. Thurston
and Mr.. Hamilton follows:
'Supt Thurston and Acting President
Hamilton of the board of education

Opposes Closing of Schools.

Superintendent of Schools Thurston is
strongly opposed to closing of the
schools for any cause whatsoever, unless
contingencies make it absolutely neces-
sary- He favors keeping the schools
open during the summer vacation for
those students who wish to graduate in
a shorter time than that prescribed by
the regular course.
Inquiry today disclosed that 90 per cent
of the coal being used in the schools this
year is bituminous, as to which there
has yet been no serious shortage Closing
OF the schools, therefore, 1t was admitted
by Mr.. Weaver, would not afford any yery
great relief to the coal situation. which
has to do chiefly with anthracite.

Mr.. Brownlow Acquiesces.

Commissioner Brownlow acquiesced
in a tentative agreement formed by the
president of the board and Mr.. Thurs
ton. following telephone conversations
with members of the board of educa-
ton. Mr.. Weaver appeared at the office
of the Commissioner in the District
building and having obtained the opin-
ions of Mr.. Hamilton and Mr.. Thurston,
decided to let the matter drop.
Closing of the public schools in the
District would effect a great saving of
coal and would do a large part in
enabling Washington to recover from
the shortage of fuel here. according to
school officials. Central High School,
the largest building in the school estab-
lishment, uses in cold weather, a ton of
coal an hour for heat and light, says
Emory Wilson, principal of the school.
In mild weather about five tons of coal
day are consumed for heat and light
To save coal used in the school and
switch the current used from the school
generator to outside sources would de-
feat the purpose of the fuel admins
tration. besides costing much more than
the current generated in the school,
Mr.. Wilson believes. The other schools
use proportionately small amount of
coal as compared with Central High
School
