 S302,957 for Year

The sum of sS02.957 will be re- quired by the Charities Department for the coming fiscal year accordfn to the departments requisition. filed yesterday by Supt. of Charities An gus P. Thorne with City Auditor Ser nard Keatins-
 The itemized budget for the com ing year is as follows: General of fee. s20, 0,494; Outside poor, 61,o36; Hillside Home. 51,405; Margaret Ford Cottage. S14,S90; Hospitals, asy- lums and state aid to widows, $115,- 1es
 The sum asked for in order to maintain hospitals. asylums. instItu- tions and widows pensions aid is s14,575 higher this year. Superin- tend ent Thorne attributes the in crease to this fact that care of city patients in private institutions cost S14 per week at the present time while last year the service was ob- tained for $6. The number of widows with dependent children in the city receiving state aid weekly increased during the year. The city, county and state share this expense.

COLLEGE HEAD
 SEES INCREASED
 INTELLIGENCE

Stanford University. Cal, Dec. 30. genius class has 800 more times as many chances to be a genius himself as one of ordinary forbears, according to observations by Prof. Lewis M. Terman, head of the Stanford Univer- sity psychology department and com piler of intelligence tests used dur ing the war.
 Every human life originates from 8 single fertilized germ cell.'' Profes- sor Terman said. This tiny cell, in visible to the naked eye. contains those elements which determine what manner of man or woman that cell will become ultimately. These ele- ments are known to science as 'genes'.'
 The combination of "genes," which are contained within the walls of the cell, determine whether one is to be blue-eyed or brown-eyed, tall or short, round-headed or long-headed, feeble-minded, normal or intellectual ly brilliant. declares Professor Ter man
 If the seed of unusual success is no chance for the developed man or woman to become unusual" intel lectually speaking, according to Pro- lessor Terman.
 Professor Herman thinks. that the average intelligence of the popula- ton Is decreasing and that the num- Der of geniuses in the future is des- tined to be comparatively few. He accounts for this fact by quoting sta- tistics showing the Intellectually su- periorN to be slower in reproduction even than the socially incompetent.

 UNIVERSITIES

Chicago, Dec. 30.-An expansion in the teaching of fural sociology in col- leges is needed because of the fnfiu- ence rural ideals have upon thu ur- ban and national life, declared Paul L.. Vogt of Philadelphia, speaking here today at the annual meeth g Of the American Sociological society.
 Rural life today presents a Held almost untouched so far as the pos-. sibilities of discovery of new truth ts concerned" he stated. '-The teacher who can settle a problem in his own mind can hope to discover truths in this field that will make a permanent contribution to human welfare.
 'In the study of sociology stu dent will obtain greater ability to see the factors in community organ1za- tion, to note the tendancies of the forcces operating for the strength or weakness of community life It is an accepted educational principle that true truth growth in knowledge proceeds from the known to the un- known. This being true we have g. very imp poTtant reason for the study of fural sociology.
 '"Phe students in many of our col- Ieges and universities come from ru- ral communities. By utilizing and analysing his own experiences he pre- sents an opportunity for the teacher in rural sociology, who can bring to him a realization of the complexf- ties of the life which he has been leading''

GREENWICH PLANS
 ERECTION OF NEW
 S9OO,OOO SCHOOL

Greenwich, Dec. 8O.-G. N. s. Deplorable conditions existing in the High school and public schools of this town today were discussed at a hearing before the Board of Estimate and Taxation. The Board of Esti- mate recommended putting additions on district schools before erecting a new high sch ool. The town school committee recommended the erec- uon of a S900,000 High schol at once on the w. s. Meany tract for which $75,000 is asked. Prominent men favor of the town school committees plan-ta two session plan. This plan is similar to that in vogue in New Haven High schools and New York schools, but 1t did not meet with any favor.
 and father of schools here, opposed the proposed enlarging of the Have meyer public school as suggested by the Board of Estimate, claiming that it would be contrary to the wishes of the late MT. Havemeyer, who gave Greenwich has received too many gifts Dr. George G. Vincent, head of the Rockefeller Foundation; Judge James F. Walsh and many other citi- zens, including women, spoke.
 Al the schools here are frightfuily overcrowded, the High school, which accommodates 250 pupils, has 500 students enrolled.
 Dr. J. E. Davis, state school board examiner, intimated that the state board would seen disapprove of the present High school building in the richest town per capita in the coun- try and it was indmated that the school would seen be closed by the state unless steps were taken to in- prove conditions.
