PUBLIC SERVICE
ERRORS
Too Many of Them to Suit the
Public.

II the City Department Of Public
Service ever gets through sharpening
its teeth Il should look after the
street signs placed at intersections.
Hundreds of them are misspelled.
Many of them are misleading.
South Wells street at 51st street is
still named on the sign at that cor
ner, s. 9th avenue.
Sedgwick street is misspelled
Sedgewick street on all signs.
Tooker place, called after DR..
Tooker, the Chicago inventor of the
Keyless fire alarm box, is misspelled
Tucker place.
And so It goes all over the city.
Inspecting smokes Is evidently
easier than inspecting some kinds Of
public utilities.

The spinal column is the main con-

Waterloo. Oct. N.--Owing to the
grave shortage Of teachers the, board
Of educational examiners, ut a recent
meeting. decided to let down the bars
relax conditions Of certificates, as 1t
were-in order to recruit the ranks Of
the teaching forces in Iowa.
This news came to II. c. Moeller.
county superintendent.
1t is reported that the state is short
1000 or more teachers, with little
prospect of obtaining additional in
structors unless conditions Of certifi-
cation be relaxed,
1t was ruled that, during the bal
ance of the school year, or until June.
1920, the following provisions shall
govern all county superintendents:
Ffrst--Admit to the uniform ex-
aminations In October and November
girls who have passed their seven
teenth birthday and completed course
in normal training, either In high
school or in any other institution.
These girls would be given provisional
certificates until they reach their
eighteenth birthday. =, In 1906 the law
was changed making it necessary for
o girl to be Is years old before being
able to get a certificate to teach.
Second-1ssue provisional certth-
Gates to any man CT woman who held
a first or second grade certificate prior
to 1906, without examination. This
means that, no matter how old a person
may be nor how little knowledge he or
she may have possessed at the time.
any one who held certificate Of the
grades described prior to thirteen
years ago may be employed to instruct
the children of Iowa. The object OF
this relaxation Of the rules Is to call
schoolma' ans and schoolmasters OF
fourteen. twenty. twenty-si six. thirty or
forty years ago back into the fast
dwindling ranks of the pedagogues.
1t win be of interest to note the effect
of this invitation Of girls Of II and of
the old timers to Join the teaching
forces Of the county.

COUNCIL SHOWS SURPRISE
 AT DEPARTURE
Responsibility for Non En- forcement of Treaty Up
 to Germany.

Paris, Nov. 25-Surprises at the de- parture of Dr. Simson, head of the plenipotentiaries sent by Germany to this city in connection with the pro- tocol relative, to the carrying out of the terms of the arnfsttce was ex- pressed in a note delivered to Kurt Won Lersner, head of the German delegation at Versailles, by the su- preme council last night.
 If the treaty of Versailles is not put into force by December 1, the note adds, the responsibility will lie with the German goveroment, as the departure of Dr. Simson inevitably delays further conferences which must be held. Dr. Won Lersner is asked, in connection, to state what are the intentions of the German government.
 It was learned today that Won Lersner sent letter to Secretary Du- tasta of the peace conference last Friday to the effect that the head of the plenipotentiaries had become con- vinced, after the conversations he had in Paris that he must consult the German government regarding the protocol, especially as the national assembly would have to- approve the decisions reached.

DAMON POSED AS AN AGENT
 IS ARRESTED

The police yesterday put a quick end to game in which women were the victims when they arrested Mill ton E.. Damon, who gives his home address as Quincy, Mass, and who has been posing in this city as g. the atrical agent and a United States Secret Service man.
 Damon has been rooming for some time at 595 State street, and 1t Is a1- 1eged that he made appointments with women on the pretext that he would secure them positions on the stage. One of the intended victims of the hoax reported the matter to the po- lice, and Damon was arrested last night by Detective Burns. The man is said to have a wife and family div ing in Quincy, Mass.
 Damon was arraigned in the city court this morning, charged with breach of the peace, and the case was continued until Nov. 28. Bonds were fixed at $500.

Thanksgiving Dinner For
 Five will Cost About S0

The Thanksgiving dinner for a party of five will cost about $9 in Bridgeport this year as compared with $7 for the same things a year ago.
 An increase of about 20 per cent This is one of the things to be thank full for. There will be very little sugar available. This is another. The last but not the least thing have to be thankful for is tllat cider and cocoa are not as expensive a drink as that of former years.
 According to the dealers, turkeys will sell for about 50 cents a, pound for young birds and old Toms will sell for 5 cents. Last year young birds sold for 10 cents with old Toms for 30. Large quantities of poultry have arrived in town but the chances are that the price will increase instead of lowering before Thursday.
 Ducks a year ago were selling for 32 cents a pound This year they are quoted at 40 to 42 cents.
 Goose which last year sold for 30 cents this year is Az
 Chickens which were 2S to 30 cents

MILLER HELD IN S1OO BONDS AS
 RESULT OF SMASH

John H. Miller, of 151 Catherine street, motorman of the trolley car which crashed into Hook and Ladder Truck 3, at the corner of Norman street and Fairfield avenue late last night, was held under S100 bonds in the City court this morning pending the result of a further investigation in the accident Conductor John J. Downing, of 58 Chapel street, was re- leased from custody.
 The accident,whi caused the ser- ious injury of Relief Driver John M Slater, of 2S6 Brewster street, and minor hurts to three wom- en passengers in the trolley car, was due, according to Miller, to the fail ure of the air brakes to operate properly. As the trolley car was proceeding west in Fairfield avenue the fire apparatus rolled out of Nor man street. Patroln1an Fred Eichel, who was doing traffic duty at the cor ner, stated that he signalled the trolley car to stop, but Miller claims the air brakes failed to hold. The car hit the fire truck fairly amid ships, and the heavy machine was thrown over on its side. .-
 Driver John M. Slater was dash ede to the pavement, and sustained a possible fracture of the right leg, a deep cut over the right eye and bruis- es and abrasions about the body. He was removed to the Bridgeport hos pital, where it was said today, that his condition is satisfactory. Miss Anna Foley of 1853 Fairfield avenue, Mrs H. c. Cronan and Miss Hall, of 55 Colorado avenue, passengers in the trolley car were slightly injured but proceeded to their homes after receiving medical attention.
 The fire truck was so badly dam aged by the crash that it took sev- era1 hours to remove the machine to a garage.
