SWEDEN T0CHANGE EDUCATION SYSTEM Propose Turning Institutions
 Over to State

Stockholm. June 19.-Sweden's ed- ucational system today faces reorgan- izaton the purpose of which is to place full educational advantages within close reach of every child in the land irrespective of the childs so- cial standing in the community.
 Under the new plan all of swe- den's public schools, from the elemen- tary grades to the universities, will be co-educational. At present only the elementary schools and the universi- ties receive both sexes. The Swedish school commission purposes to open the "realskola" and the gymnasium" to girls as well as boys. An import ant change will be the elimination of several subjects as compulsory and the concentration of individual students on smaller group of subjects, logi- cally related to the occupation or pro- fession which most interests them. Students will be permitted to start specializing much earlier than at present.
 New School System.
 It is now proposed that virtually the whole educational work of the country, with the exception of a few private schools, be taken over by the

 ARE HARMFUL
SECURE RELIEF PLEASANTLY

Constipation results from the in- ability of the intestines to eliminate waste matter. Harsh cathartics and drugs of metallic origin force action but they do not correct the cause of constipation.
 Early settlers treated constipation with natural laxatives. An extract was made from herbs, roots, barks and leaves with laxative qualities Dr. True's Elixir, the True Family Laxative, is a compound of extracts from natural plants = pure, mild pleasant and effective old fashioned, home made laxative that for Il years has been a favorite. Its regular use relieves constipation and fortifies the body against more serious illnesses. You are safe with Dr. True's Elixir. 40C-60c-S1 20

wide inquiry into automobile frauds
and thefts and for the destruction of
the market for stolen cars. The COM

"A national clearance test to be ap-
piled to all cars registered In the
United States has been carefully
worked out that not only will result
in the detection and recovery of a
great majority Of the uncovered cars
stolen In the past, and that are sill
In operation. but will prevent to
very large degree, the future sale, use,
or registration of stolen cars In any
state, regardless OF changes In num-
bers and appearance" says state

considered the most constructive and

"Many laws TO check the motor car
