SCHOOL HEADS FIRM
AGAINST HYLAN KIN
Plea for Miss Birmingham
Fails to Swerve Superinten-
dents in Secret Session.
MISS M'NALLY IS VICTOR
She Was First i'm Qualification,
but Opposed by Stern. Mem
ber of Board.

Members of the Board of Superin-
toLdents. meeting yesterday behind
closed doors In the rooms OF the board
AZ Park avenue and Fifty-ninth street,
listened for more than three hours to a
discussion of why NJ. Samuel Stern, n
member of the Board of Education, does
rot want Miss Elizabeth II. McNally
appointed director of speech improve
ment and prefers instead Miss Agnes
birmingham, relative of Mayor
Hylan.
After the meeting IL was announced
that no statement would be forthcom-
ing until the formal report of the hear
ing Is made to the Board of Education
rext Wednesday, but ii was learned on
excellent authority that unless the su-
perintendents changed their minds the
nomination of Miss McNally again
would be placed befnre the board.
Miss McNally, a. speech Improvement
teacher of long experience and recog-
nized ability, is now assigned to the
New York Training School for Teach
ers. The Board of Superintendents de-
cided month ago that she was the best
qualified of all the applicants to fill
the vacancy of speech Improvement di-
rector and she was nominated for that
position at the meeting of the Board
OIL Educa ton on January %.
When She was nominated Mr.. Stern
asked that the nomination be referred
10 him and his committee for investiga-
lion and report. His reques. was
granted, as is usual in such cases.

the rating OF the applicants, withdrew
her application. The belief persisted
mat political pressure was being put
on Miss NcNalIy to get her to withdraw
in favor OF Miss Birmingham. Authority
Tor that statement is DIR. Andrew w.
Edson, who retired as an associate
superintendent on February l. He was
in charge OF speech improvement work
and Miss McNally's superior.
Mr.. Stern reported on the nomination
of Miss McNally at the meeting of the
Board of Education last Wednesday.
He fntinated in n speech before the
board that she had taught pupils who
did not properly belong in the speech
Improvement classes. He also mentioned
500 in vague way. without directly
charging Miss McNally with receiving
it for doing outside work. He also said
something about her mot being proper

When Mr.. Stern made his charges he

mitted then that Miss McNally had only
been carrying out lne instructions of
her superior when she taught certain

Miss McNally be rejected.
Miss SIcNaIIy Leaves Smiling.
Mr.. Stern and Miss McNally were
present throughout the hearing yester-
day and Miss Birmingham sat outside
in the hall. Several times the high
heard through the doors. At the end Of
the hearing Miss McNally emerged
smiling. but she declined to say whether
she was pleased with the outcome.
When Mr.. stern left he was not smiling
and refused TO say q word.
Mr.. Stern is real estate dealer. with
offices at 15F Broadway. He also is
said TO have some tobacco interests.
lie said he had been connected with
the Board OF Education in some capacity
or another for twenty years. He is
known as n close political friend OF
Mayor Hylan.
Before the hearing Mr.. Stern was
asked if the public would be allowed
to attend and hear what he had to say.
"It would be against the law for
the Board OF Superintendents to hold
an open session." he said.
Members OF the board said after the
hearing that it had been held in secret
at the request OF Mr.. Stern and not
because the law made 1t mandatory.
DR.. William l.. Ettinger, Superinten-
dent of Schools, was asked about the
law which Mr.. Stern had said would be
violated by open hearings.
II am not familiar with that law"
said DR.. Ettinger. after moments

Miss Birmingham. who was kept
waiting In the hall. was called into the
meeting just before 1t ended. She re-
mained inside less than two minutes,
and left without speaking.
The director of speech improvement
of the Department OF Education has
Jurisdiction over the 5000 vocally handi-
capped children of this city. There are
twenty-six speech Improvement teach
ers. The position of director has been
vacant since the resignation of DR..
Frederick Martin last September. Miss
Birmingham was sort of clerical as
sistant to Or. Martin and also is a
tea cher OF speech Improvement, though
when the Board of Superintendents was
passing on her qualifications it ranked
her fourth in the preliminary balloting.
while the recommendation of Miss
McNally family was made unanimous.

OPPORTUNITY TO ENTER
CLEMSON COLLEGE NOW

The attention of young men inter
terestcd in technical education is
directed to the Clemson scholarship
announcement appearing elsewhere
in this issue.
Clarendon County is entitled to 4
four-year scholarships and l one year
scholarship. Last session the follow
ing young men from this county were
at Clemson on scholarships: Harvin,
J. L., f. D. Plowdcn, and j. H. Tim
mons.
For the session of 1922-1923 there
are 2 four-ycar scholarships and one
one year Agricultural Course scholar
ships vacant in this county.
A college education, viewed merely
as an investment Of time and Of
money, is equal to an estate worth
thousands of dollars. Viewed, how
ever from it's highest sense such an
education prepares a young man for
greatest service to this country and
places him in position to enjoy
some of the good things of life. Edu-
cation fits one for a life whose pos
sibilitics are limited only by his ca
pacity and his character.

Ions. $3.50
This is inexpensive and can be
readily applied with brush. Shave
the soap finely and dissolve in three
gallons of hot water. Make thin
paste of sulphur and add to the soap
solution, and while the lime is shaking
in a half barrel, the solution Of soap
and sulphur is poured into it and the
whole quantity is diluted to 25 gall
Ions which is enough for 200 to 800
trees.
After this is applied the mounds
should be thrown up around the trees
to height Of from 10 to IL inches.
This will be about 8 inches when set
tied.
Any borers present should be re-
moved before the mounds are thrown
up. The mounds should be pulled,
down around the 18th of October, and
the worms removed again.

SIGN THE CLUB ROLL YOURSELF

l desire all enrolling clerks through
out the County as we'll as every good
and patriotic citizen to read this ar
ticle and then constitute himself or
herself committee of one to help us
get The results we want, and that is
for every voter to sign the club rolls
without making the characteristic x.
In the past the County Superinten-
dents have been requested to get all
the books after their return to the
County Chairman and to compile
list showing the number of voters who
had to sign the books by making their
cross mark.
l feel sure there are hundreds of
yet who do not simply because it is a
little trouble and so much easier to
touch the pen after the enrolling clerk
has written their names. Now the
clerks should insist that each voter
do this for himself or herself, and if
the writing is not legble, then the
clerk can underwrite the name.
During the next few days voters
who are not accustomed to writing
much could practice a little and you
would be surprised at your improve
mnet Again there arc those who
really cannot write. Here is where
Soiilc SOOu samaritan can get III SOOd
work. If you, Mr.. Reader, know of
any man or woman who cannot write
his or her name, offer to teach such
one. Any one can learn to write his
or her name in a little while, and
should the County Superintendent of
Education be called on this year to
compile a list of voters who have made
their cross marks let it be very
small list. 1T it's not crcditable to us
as a people to have such large per-
ccntage, and if all will get interested
in this we can cut the number down
considerably.
Schools for illiterates have been
conducted for several years where the
percentage was large, but for Clarcn-
don we have not had many for rea-
MS not necessary here to tell
| feel that we can and should make
a better showing than we did in the
past where one out every six made
his x.
There were three or four clubs in
the County whereN not a single x
appeared Why can't we add to the
list and thus reduce the crosses?
Rcmembcr, do not make your x un-
less you really cannot write. Even
If this be so, can't you learn to write
before the last Friday in July?
