Outlines Economics.

Or. Ettinger told how certain econo-
mics could be effected. These included
care iii the maintenance of school plant
and equipment, supplies, waste due to
crude classification of pupils and econ
omy in classroom instruction and man
agement. He said:
"The school equipment entrusted to
our care must be protected with the
same zeal that characterizes the public
spirited citizen protecting his private
property"
He referred to extensive window
breakage in the schools last year, for
which no one seemed to assume any par
ticnlar responsibility. To permit the
deterioration or destruction of supplies
Is serious breach of duty, he charged.
He added:
You are not aware that ii has been
alleged that there has been extravaganza
in the purchase and the use of text
books. / would like to be sure that
there is no ground for such criticism" !"
Dr. Ettinger referred to the waste
OF energy of teacher and pupil and sug-
gested that one way of eliminating
waste was not to group children IL unit
classes but to segregate the subnormal
or defective child from the normal child
There is room for improvement in the
average class organization in many
schools, he said, adding:
Il beg you to discourage those an
tiquarians among us who are prone to
group pupils according to the lengta
of their legs and who advance pupils
on the basis of so-called good behavior.
which is ofteu synonymous with immo-
bility"

AZ II o'clock Mr.. Bennett declared the
returns were sufficient to show "the
handwriting on the wall" and there
after evinced little interest In them ex-
cept a curiosity to see the volume of
Mr.. Curran's victory. He sent Mr.. Cur
ran telegram at IL 80 conceding him
victory and later called him on the tele-
phone to give a personal touch to his
assurances of support in the Mayoralty
campaign.
"Mr. Curran. want to extend you my
congratulations" he said over the tele-
phone, "and assure you'that I will sup
port you to the limit In the coming
campaign"

Statement Made by, Curran.


Mr.. Curran then dictated the follow
ing statement:
"I am glad that the job is finished.
Now for the real work My first
thought is to thank the enrolled men
and women of the Republican party in
every section. of every one of the five
boroughs for their fine vote of confi-
dence in our success this fall.
II know that whole lot of them
went to great inconvenience to vote in
the primaries, and every one of us has
reason to be proud OF the great vote,
because it plainly points to what Is
going to happen this fall. The primary
contest has been a credit to the Repub-
lican party.
1T was clean, honorable, hard
fought match. and l deeply appreciate
the high standard of the campaigning
which my opponents followed.
II tried to handle my own campaign
in just the same way. and now we all
go into the real fight with "A united
front to bring our city up out Of the

Mr.. Ettinger said that for the city

tinued:
II urge you, to whom the administra-

in your power to study wherein econo-
mics can be effected, Our practices,
however excellent, are constantly In
need of careful scrutiny. and the rap
idly mounting cost of education renders
it advisable that our expenditures be
closely analyzed. We must make every
endeavor to make certain that not one

By avoiding early pas turing very much better sod is main. tsiped in the yards during the season and extra green food is necessary onls during the hot dry weather in summer The effect on egg production is a more even lay throughout the season rather than very high early spring produc ton followed by a drop. Many hocki of hens give free range during the earl! spring are confined in small yards with lout green food when the gardens ar' planted. This practice usually results il a short season of high production follow ed by a decline.

The criminal case of state. Thomas E. Brown, vs. John Whitford, colored, aharged with being a lewd, wanton and iascfvious person, was continued at the opening of the superior court for Wash ington county Tuesday morning at the courthouse on Broad street. WMtford was again called to the state by State Attorney Sisson and again maintained his innocence of the alleged crime.
 Following the defendant, Peter Sacco took the stand for the defense. His testi- inpuy was brief. He said that he em- pIoyed Whitford in his butcher shop on Pierce street and had always found him to be a good worker He knew nothing about the happenings alleged to have gone on at the Payne house.
 Anthony Fibre, his business partner, said that Whitford had often accompanied him on his truck and that he did not seem to be the lewd person that the state charged. Earl Whitford and Irving Tan ner, both celored, who were at the Payne home the night of the raid, also testified that they saw nothing wrong there the night in question
 At 1215 o'clock the jury was again excused, and Attorney Roche again ar gued his motion for the dismissal of the case on the ground that one such act of
 
 him with being a lewd and wanton per- son. Attorney Sission again refuted these arguments for the state. the motion was denied and the court took recess.
 At the afternoon session the jury heard the pleas of Attorneys Roche and Sisson and were charged by Judge Brown at about 3 o'clock Tn exactly one-half hour a verdict of guilty was returned. uphold ing the finding of Judge Oliver H. Will Hams in the Third district court, who sentenced Whitford to serve three years in the state workhouse.
 Attorney Clarence Roche stated Tues day evening that motion for new trial would be filed within the next week.
