ARITHMETIC BY
ART LATEST IN .
SCHOOL WORK
Children Do Not Know Games
They Are Playing Aids in
Education.
SYSTEM IS PERFECTED

Arfthmeticsis taught by art in the local
public schools.
This method of instruction is carried
on through the applied arts course in the
elementary schools under the direction
of Miss Florence Fitch. Not only arith-
metic but geography, history spelling
and practical experience is imbued In the
young minds of the city while they pur-
sue course in color harmony and draw
ing
The beauty Of the system lies in the
fact that the children do not realize that
they are being taught. according to Miss
Fitch who also says they are not being
taught. but merely being given an op-
portunity to learn after their own natural
inclinations.
STUDY PLACED
ON SYSTEM.
Under the applied arts course as taught
a system Of industry study is placed De
fore the children on which their artistic
efforts are guided. In the primary grades
food, shelter and clothing, the three prl-
mary necessities of life, are made sub
jects of art study. and thus the students
are taken through simple history Oh
human existence while plying their
crayons.
Fourth grade pupils make a study Of
clay modelling by which they become
familiar with molds, designs and colors
Paper making is taught in the attn
grade and by following the study chill
dren learn quite 4 bit about cutting de-
signs and the history of paper. Studies
Of cotton, furniture, sewing, concrete
making, book making and printing are
taken up in the higher grades where the
students make rugs, books, clothing,
furniture, etc. During this course local
industries are visited and the children
are given a glimpse of the practical side
of their work.
AND THEN THEY
PLAY GAMES.
A game called Yankee Five Hundred"
which provides an excellent method OF
teaching arithmetic, has been devised by
the art department for the younger stu
dents. In order to play this game the
children are required to make boards OF
fancy design with series Of numbers on

STUDYING ROAD PROBLEMS.
Delaware Represented at the Federal
Highway Council Meeting in New York.

The committee appointed by the Fed
eral Highway Council to investigate and
study subgrade conditions and their rela-
ton to highway surfaces met in New
York yesterday and outlined tentative
program.
Coleman du Pont is chairman of the
committee, which is composed of good
road advocates in various parts of the
United States.
Heretofore practically all study has
been confined TO roadsurfaces, and little
attention has been paid to sub-grade de-
signs A satisfactory solution of the prob
lem would make a saving of millions of
dollars throughout the country within
the next few years.
Besides Mr.. du Pont, those present
Yesterday included W. z. Blair of the
National Paving Brick Association, d.
S. Humphrey of the Ohio State Highway
Department, III. G.. Shirley, former chief
road engineer of Maryland, Charles M.
Upham, chief road engineer of Delaware,
and j. f. Tate, assistant road engineer
of Delaware.
The committee went to Washington
today to confer with the Bureau of Pub
lie Roads, which has also started study

MORE OPPOSITION TO
KLA|R LAW CHANGE
DR.. Willard Smith and DR.. G. W..
Hughes Say Alcohol Not Es-
sential in Practice.

That there is a marked difference of
opinion among physicians as 20 the value
oi alcohol in the practice OF medicine and
te treatment of disease is evident from
letters that have been sent to members of
the Legislature opposing any change IN
the laws as they now stand on the statute
books.
The New Castle County Medical
Society went on record as favorlng an
amendment to the existing laws so as to
permit druggists to keep alcoholic bever-
ages on hand in order that they might
fill the descriptions of practiclng physl-
clans. This desire is not shared by all
physicians, some of them holding that
alcohol in any form is not essential. DIR.
b. r.. Neasey several days ago wrote a
letter to member of the Legislature pro-
testing against the action advocated by
the Medical Society, and two other physi-
clans, Dr. Willard +. Smith and DR.. G. w.
Hughes have also written to Legislators
protesting against the proposed change
In the law.
DIR. Smith says that latter twenty
years in the practice of my profession, and
after going through the epidemic of flu
in 1918 during which did not prescribe
an ounce of Intoxicating liquor in any
form. / am strongly of the opinion that
Intoxicating liquors are not necessary IN
the successful practice of medicine. |
hope the Legislature will not make any
change in our prohibition law"
DR. Hughes says that ''as physician
who has been In active practice for
twenty-five years, | have never had a
case that did not do as we'll witho ut
whisky as did those of my competitors
with ii. 1t has been my observation
over all these years that the physician
who did not indulge in it as a beverage
himself rarely if ever prescribed it for
has patients"
After quoting various authorities IN
support of the contention that alcohol Is
not necessary, DIR. Hughes continues
Our best hospitals do not use whisky.
Our Homeopathic Hospital in Whining
ton and the West Penn Hospital of Alle-
gheny. Pa, are two examples that L
know of personally. As a physician
and a citizen | am well satisfied with the
Delaware prohibition laws as they now
stand believe the Legislature will make
a mistake if any change is made.

HAD WARNED
GERMANY NOT To

man Deception.
ASKS GREAT BRITAIN FOR
STILL CLOSER ALLIANCE
By Associated Press TO Every Evening

Paris, April l0.--The note sent yester-
day by Premier Millerand to the British
government in reply to the British note
with regard to the action of France /
sending troops into the nuetral zone IN
Germany says:
The French government aflirms first
first of all that no doubt can be felt OF the
LOYALTY it's attitude. The allies have
been onstantly in ormed o Its policy.
The French government has always
opposed the entry supplementary Ger
man troops into the Tuhr region and has
added that the authorization for such an
entry must have counterpart IN the
occupation OF Frankfort and Darmstadt.
"On April g. its representatives In all
the allied capitals informed the govern
ments to which they were accredited lat
the same time ciopy being sent to the
allied representatives IN Parisl that
Marshal Foeh's measures could no longer
be postponed Furthermore the French
government recalled that the matter
concerned the cviolation ono the
most solemn clauses of the treaty signed
by France and that the German govern
ment had formally recognized that foraml
authorization given in advance was
necessary for such derogation, and that
France had the right to ask for terri
torial gurantees.
"How could the government OF France
have been satisfied with the German
promise TO withdraw the troops when
order had been restored2 Neither for
reparations nor for the delivery of the
war-guilty, not for coal have the allies
received the stipulated satisfaction
.frhe question could be asked when the
British government, which no doubt thas
not measured the danger of these sys-
tematic violations, would step In the
path of concessions. France, in any case,
was obliged TO say, that is enough =
The French government is no less
convinced than the English government of
the essential necessities of maintaining
unity of the allies for the application of the
treaty with Germany. This close con-
cert of France and England appears to
France equally indispensable for the
equitable solution of the vast problems
which are presented at this moment in the
world-in Russia, the Baltic, Asia-Minor
and all the Balkans"
The note closes with assurances that
the French government, for the promo
tion of these ends, declares itself entirely
disposed, before acting, TO be assured of
the consent of the allies in all inter-allied
questions which the execution of the treaty
raised.

BILL" T|NSMAn VICTIM
OF BOLD BURGLARS
Robbed Magistrate Broman's Of
flee and Carried Off Con-
stables Gun.

The latest case OF sneak thievery,
occurred last night, when one or more
persons probably boys, broke into the
office of Magistrate Lawrence J. Broman,
in the basement of the Church Building
atTenth and Marketstreets, and ransacked
desks and drawers, securlngs Sl2.20 In
money, belonging to James t. McIvor,
deputy collector of the State income tax
which had been placed in Squire Broman' S
desk. and a 80 caliber Colt pistol and
holster. with 20 pennies, from the desk
of Constable ". II. Tinsman. The
pistol and holster Mr.. Tinsman valued at
S25.
Entry was effected by first loosening
the wire netting on the outside of the
window on the south. This extends
below the grade, with an area In front of
1t, of such size that only boy or small
man could conveniently get down into it.
The window was then pried open, breaking
the lock, allowing the lower sash to be
raised.
There is a thin partition at this end of
the room, and the sneak thief evidently
made more than one trip TO the front
room, picking up drawers and other re-
ceptacles from the two desks in the main
office, and bringing them back of the par
titltlon, where they Were found this
morning. for leisurely examination. Only
the articles mentioned seemed to attract
attention however, nothing else having
been so far missed.
The cash was kept by Mr.. McIvor in
cigar box, for change, and he had put it into
Mr.. Broman's desk as being less ex-
posed than on his own table. The pistol
was in a drawer in Constable Tinsman's S
desk on the west side of the room.
The operation must have taken place
after $50 last evening, as the office was
occupied until that time. As the action
of taking the drawers behind the partition
would indicate fear of being seen from
Tenth street, this would seem to place
the time before midnight while people
were still passing along that thoroughfare.
