The Old Man

AS man grows older in hoot
and shoulder he has a frequent
pain; his back is aching, his
heart is breaking at every little
strain. We should remember
that life's December is cherries,
cold and sad; and not act bear
ish. but help and cherish the
poor old failing dad. The old
man stumbles, and snarls and
grumbles, but we should patient
be; for time is sailing, and we'll
be ailing. and weak, some day,
as he. We're hale and hearty;
Age is a party who seems afar,
remote; but Times sprinter,
and soon life's winter will come
and get Our goat. And when
we totter, and fuss and potter,
as weary old men will, may
those around US not stab and
wound us, but ease us down the
hill. AS hair grows whittier the
wayworn blighter needs kind
ness all the time; if you remind
him that loves behind him,
you're guilty of crime. The
flippant laddy, who's rude to
daddy, can be no friend of mine,
though that same critter may
fairly glitter where social lions
shine. WALT MASON.

TEACHERS co FAR
IN REFORM PLANS.
New Methods Urged by Miss
Deal and Miss Marsh for
Approval by Congress.

Far-reaching reforms in the present
system of classifying teachers in the
= public schools of the District were
recommended at meeting OF the
High School Teachers Union last night
at 1923 New York avenue.
The scheme, as drawn up by Miss
Alice Deal, president of the High
School Teachers Union, and Miss
Genevieve Marsh, chairman of the re-
organization committee. provides for
division of public school instruction
into ten classes, recognizing merit in
teaching rather than the salary class
into which the teacher falls. division
of high school teaching into four
classes and changes in methods of
dealing with backward children
Teachers will be divided into A. B.
c and d classes, under the scheme.
which is based not only on success in
instruction, but in general handling
of children. Miss Deal summed up
this phase of the scheme by saying
that merit in a teacher lies in her
ability to so impart information that
the pupil may be passed on to
higher grade. Fifty per cent of the
school children, she said, fail in their
studies because they are not properly
handled.
The Grade School Teachers Union
also has under consideration plan
for similar classification of grade
school teachers. Last nights recon-
mendations applied only to high
school teachers.
The report as made last night is ten
tative and needs polishing before II
can be presented to Congress. MISS
Deal said. Another meeting VIII De
held next Monday night to go deep
er into the subject. as last nights
meeting did not fully cover an the
points it was desired to bring out
The scheme of classification pro.
posed by Miss Marsh and Miss Deal
provides for superintendent OF
schools and four assistants. ten cnie1s
and ten assistants of the proposed ad de,
feacher for each high school. each
group of grammar grades. each group
of intermediate grades and each group
of primary grades. o+
The question of salary was not
touched upon last night

RELEASE MAN WHEN
BANK ROLL RETURNS

EUREKA. Calf, Aug. 16.-Wher.
Joe Clemente, former saloon proprie-
tor, opened his place, now soft drink
stand, one morning recently, he found
on the floor, a roll of bills containing
$500. AS result of this, Joe Silva,
a former porter employed by Clemente
who has been in the county pail more
than a month, awaiting trial on a
grand larceny charge, was released
pending further investigation by the
district attorneys office.
At the time of his arrest Silva was
charged by Clemente with having
stolen the money from the safe, the
combination of which he is alleged to
Rave. Silva denied his guilt, and the
mysterious return of the money while
the accused man was in jail, led to
a doubt of his guilt by the authorities.
