PASTOR
WALKS OUT OF JAIL
Allows Uncle TO Pay S15 Fine and Will
Send His Children to SchOOl-Re-
Tents for His Family.

GREENFIELD, Mass. April Is
After passing Il night and Il day in the
Greenfield Jail for refusing to send his
children to the village school at Leyden'
where his next-door neighbOr, Mrs. Alfred
p. Black, is the teacher, Rev. Walter c.
Carroll. acting pastor of the Leyden
Methodist church, obtained mis- liberty
late yesterday afternoon and returned to
his family of seven.
He had finally accepted SO from an
uncle. and paid the fine.
He had decided. he said, that for the
sake of the family he ought to relent.
Found guilty Saturday in the district
court of violating the compulsory cduca-
ton law, and fined so by Judge Henry
Field, Rev Mr.. Carroll declined to per-
nit relatives to pay the fine. and declared
he would rather serve 30 days in jail be
cause a 'principle was at stake
He objected to Mrs. Black teaching his
children. two of whom, Annie May, aged
nine. and Alice, eight, though of school
age, have been kept away from school
since the opening of the March term. Mr.
Carroll has six children ranging from
nine years downward.
The clergyman intimated that because
he does not wish his children to suffer
further loss of schooling and in order
not TO offend against the law, he would
send Annie and Alice to their claSsrooms
in the morning.
Rev. Mr.. Carroll is a native of Green
field and is % years old, having obtained
his education by studying the Methodist
course and not graduating from college.
and has held pastOrates in New York
state and in Vermont before going to
Leyden last July. He supplied the pull
pit during the winter, but now the church
has its regular pastor.

WILD DUCKS TRAVELS.
Returned Leg Bands Indicate Routes
Taken by Birds.

\ systematic banding of wild ducks
has been undertaken by the Bureau of
Biological Survey of the department of
agriculture in an effort TO keep tabs on
the travels of the birds This method
consists of trapping the birds and mark
ing them with aluminium leg bands that
carry number and the legend, Biol.

When banded duck is killed the
hunter removes the band and returns it
to the Biological Survey with informa-
tion showing when and where the bird
was recovered
Last autumn a Canadian collaboration
of the Survey, II. :. Osler, operated a
duck trap at Lake Scugog. Ontario.
where he captured and banded over 20O
black ducks and mallards, with a few
ring -uecked ducks and blue winged teals.
Some of these were killed near the
place where they were banded but
others were from such localities as to
indicate approximately the route taken
by these birds in their journey to the
Southland. In all about twenty-five of
Mr.. Osler's ducks have been killed and
the bands returned from points in Ohio.
Indiana. Kentucky, Tennessee. Arkan-
sas, Mississippi. Louisiana and Texas.
One of the lue-wnged teals was
killed near Port of Spain. Trinidad.
British West Indies. more than 2500
miles from Lake Scugog, where the band
was attached.
