TO TRY NEW IDEA IN
POPULAR EDUCATION
Estate Of Judge Handley Of
Scranton Will Back Win
chester, Va, Plan.
SYSTEM TO BE SUPERIOR
Income on Trust Fund Will
Only Augment the City
Officers Efforts.

A novel experiment In education has
the estate Of Judge John Handley Of
Scranton, Pa, who when he died in
1895 left a large portion Of his prop
erty in trust to be used for providing
schoolhouses in winchester, Va, for
the education OF tho poor. The late
Judge Handley's gift and idea aroused
deep interest, and when the twenty year
period of accumulation Of trust funds
had expired the trustees asked the Cen
eral Education Board. founded by John
d. Rockefeller. ito make an educational
survey of the city OF Winchester and its
environment, and to work out a plan
for the application of the Handley funds
for educational purposes"
The problem was TO devise a pro-
gramme which would be the wisest and
most effective way of using the Handley
trust for public beneht and without re-
lieving a municipality Of its duty and
responsibility. The General Education
Board. as It announced yesterday, came
to this conclusion
ut has been we'll and wisely said that
one Of the best things about public edu-
cation is the doing of II by the commu-
nifty itself. Wholly to relieve the commu-
nlty Vi TobpOubipiutg pioNo

would reflect unfavorable public interest
in the school. check the present healthy
growth Of self-sacrifice and keep Win
chester from performing an inspired
service. Private benefactions are best
employed when they stimulate public In
terest and public participation in So
cial enterprises"
The programme which the General
Education Board recommended to the
Handley trustees contemplates:
A provision obligating the trustees to
devote the income of its trust to estab-
fishing and maintaining in cooperation
with the board of education a superior
system Of public schools This Is to In
clude the procuring of sites, buildings
and equipment of both white and COL
ored schools
An obligation on the part of the COM
mon council to provide at least $4,000
a year.
The trustees to make studies of the
operation of these schools from time
to time, and the Board Of Education to
make stated reports.
The choice of a competent superin-
tendent who shall be duly and legally
authorized to assume the administration
and management.
This plan would make for the best
use of the Handley funds and at the
same time respect democratic principles
and the duties of the city. according to
the General Board.

ME. MINISTER LAUDS
FRENCH CATHOLICS
Capt. Herben Of American
Red Cross Opposes Protestant
PROSECUTING There.

Capt. Stephen J. Herben Of the Amer
lean Red Cross. a Methodist minister
and editor. said in an address yesterday
at the Madison Avenue Methodist Episco-
pal Church that he had no sympathy
with PROSECUTING or with any scheme
that would upset the faith of the Cath
olics OF France.
IT saw the church at work there" he
said. land honor It and its work to the
full extent of it's deserts. have had
the most kindly relations with the Cath
Ollie priests and laity of Brittany, and
anything in my power to help Catholic
France I stand ready to do. l hope
American Catholics will help their French
brethren to rebuild their devastated
places Of worship. and I hope many
Americans who are not Catholics will
help them.
But speak what I know when say
that there are vast numbers of French
people who are not Catholics. A talk
with them will convince any one that
they never will become Catholics. They
DO not attend any church for worship
or for work.
Great cities like Marseilles and even
Paris itself stand in need of Christian
work OF the American type. II the Cath
ole Church does not purpose to do II,
then It is the duty OF Professionals TO do
II. Sectarianism must not stand in the
way. Salvation of men and women, the
welfare of nation-these are vastly
more important than the preservation of
a religious system"
Capt. Herben said that the Quakers at
work in France had the right idea in
that they are providing houses better
than those the French people had before
the war, and not making conditions with
them. He said:
There are needed community houses,
such as are provided in America. At
present the drinking places are the only
places for families to congregate. Help
from America ought to take the form OF
community service. with houses and
workers. Place the people upon a bet
ter basis socially. morally, teach them
how to live. and say nothing about in
structors or religious bodies to whom
the debt for such improvements are due.
Bring in brotherhood. decency. cleanli-
ness. good food. and then let the best
| form of Christianity win.
Help France to get on her feet.
repeat that I have no sympathy with
prcselyting. and hope Americans will
help all churches and all peoples, but I

Is not Catholic ought not 10 be neglected

they are suffering. They look TO Amer
