Special to The Evening Journal.
NEWARK, Dec. 11-Robert j..
Colbert, who lives on Depot Road,
near the Pennsylvania station had an
agreeable surprise Saturday evening

associates employed at the Todd's
Cut shops of the Pennsylvania Rail
road called at his home and pre-
sented him and Mrs. Colbert each
with a handsome wicker chair and
him also with a treveling bag.
The visit of the railroad men was
a complete surprise to Mr.. Colbert
who was placed on the railroad re-
tired list last September after thirty
years service with the railroad as a
machinist. The delegation arrived
at the Colbert home about o'clock
Saturday evening. composed Of men
with whom Mr.. Colbert had worked
side by side for a quarter of a cen

more of a surprise to Mr.. Colbert
than the group visit Of his former
comrades. He replied with a short
speech of thanks and appreciation.

TEACHING
BY GROUP SYSTEM

Special to The Evening Journal.
NEWARK, Dec. 11.-Dr. II. V.
Holloway. State Superintendent of
Public Instruction, gave a talk at
the institute held hero Saturday by
public school teachers Of New Castle
county, on Lesson Plans"
Miss Agnes Snyder. Of the Wo-
mems College. gave sn interesting
talk on the subject. "A goal for ev-
cry child" Miss Snyder explained
the group system for the advance
ment Of pupils in the public schools.
The idea advanced by Miss Snyder
is that owing to the fact that chill
dren differ so widely in any one
class room it is best to divide them
into groups according to how fast
they are advancing and in that way
try to take them on a little farther.
One child, for instance, may have
done a half years work of a par
ticular class and while in the past
il has been customary to make the
child take the entire years work
over again under the system advo-
Gated by Miss Snyder. the pupil
would not be required to take the
half year over which has already
been satisfactorily completed. The
idea met with general approval.
Miss Mousley, visiting teacher for
New Castle county, gave some en-
couraging reports relative to attend
ance. Her report showed that the
average attendance in the county
last month was 81 per cent, which
is probably the best average in the I

 Atlanta, Ga. Oct. 27 - Federal court officials were somewhat. per- plexed over the case of Howard B. Smith, IT, held in the Fulton County jail on the charge of violating the Mann act in connection with an auto mobile trip to Jacksonville, Fla, with Mamie Hopkins, also IT, when it was announced on the morning of his trial before Judge Samuel H. Sib1ey that the two had been married the night before in the cell occupied by the youth.
 United States District Attorney Hager didn't know exactly where he stood. so he wired the Department of Justice at Washington for instructions and requested the court to postpone the case until the advice could be re- ceived.
 There was just & trace of mischief in the smile that fitted across the youths face he held his brides hand and told officials that they were married. Then in all seriousness he said:

each receives the same compensation Tor

anything which any other member cannot
have on the same terms, if he desires it
in short. imagine place where the golden
rule is the only law imposed upon the cons
munity, and you are plcturing the Llano Co
operative Colony.
After eight years Of work. Llano Colony is
rated in the commercial world as worth over
$250,000, But Llanos least asset is its COM
mercial rating. The fullness Of life, the JOY
Of living, the satisfaction of working, the
security for the future. the healthy environ
ment, the opportunity for education, the af-
lection of your fellowmen these are priced
more. much more. than what the commercial
world calls success.
This colony now has something like thirty
industries, all collectively owned. Among
these are: apiary, auto garage, building de-
partment. brick-making plant, blacksmith
shop, butcher shop, broom factory, crate-
making factory, chicken farm. dairy with
about 20 milking cows and herd of thoro-

brary, steam laundry. land clearing. fruit or
chards, print shop, peanut butter factory.
magazine and weekly newspaper picture
show and theater. wagon-making shop. cam
dy kitchen. shoe shop. harness shop, and
v,auyy other smaller concerns A
Then Llano's farms and gardens provide
the bulk Of the living for the colonists. the
farmers specializing on sweet potatoes, SUI
gar cane. peanuts. corn, beans. peas, etc,
while the gardens provide greens and gar
den truck for the table the year around.

selects general manager He selects his
foremen for the various industries, and each
is selected carefully according to his ability
to do the work and to direct his men.
Each manager is given free hand to run
his department, always with The supervision
Of the manager and board Of directors. in
order that his actions may not be contrary TO
the collective welfare.
New industries are started from time to
time as necessity demands. The object of
Llanos industries is to provide the Colony
with what it needs, rather than to make a
profit by selling the products. Production
for use is our slogan. Thus to make its own
food. clothing and shelter, to provide as far
as possible every convenience and comfort
is the final object. To get as nearly as pos
sible to the source Of wealth, the Colony will
raise sheep for wool; cotton can be raised,
and the colonists can weave their own cloth
and make their clothing.
The Colony's timber lands are now fur
nishing hardwood and pine for its buildings.
its brick plant makes the necessary brick and
can make thing. hollow tile, etc, for its own
homes
The farm and gardens Of the Colony have
provided the tables with most Of the good
things which nature offers.
Thus the three important problems are
easily solved.
The Colony now owns about 5000 acres
Of land, some Of it Of very fair character,
varying from bottom land 70 rolling land
and timber land. Ii intends 10 purchase
total Of 10000 acres, because the colonists
realize that the movement is destined to grow
TO large proportions, several small commune
tiles probably will be settled on the land.
When the days work is done at 4:30,
each colonist has an equal opportunity to
improve himself along many lines. such as
music, vocal training, languages. science.
agriculture. orchestra work, dancing, and
other diversions, Many Of these classes are
