Mrs. Bryson has already indicated

two great reasons for thinking II all

is that Senator Curtis seems 70 be

MOSCOW'S MERRY BEGGARS SERVE
 TEA WITH JOKES

Moscow. Oct. 3.-The beggars of Moscow have been enjoying resump- tion of free trade under the Soviet regime nearly as much as the profi- teers and speculators.
 A year or so ago, when the govern inent doled out everything to every
 body, the aristocrat and the beggar alike, and money was of very little use, mendicants virtually disappeared from all their haunts at the various street corners. But with the reopen ling of trade. and when the daily par Jade of shoppers began anew the beg tgars returned and apparently brought lot of relatives and friends with them.
 The professional beggars of Moscow are a happy lot when off duty, They congregate in vacant lots and in hooks and corners of tumbled down build ings where they gamble among themselves; joke and laugh; hold their feasts, apparently oblivious of the past or the future. and have quite as jolly 8 time as any group of aver age individuals. The non-profession- als, the men and women of the bet ter class of other days who beg only as last resort, do not participate in these gatherings whic are made up of the class which has always been life.
 Tea is served regularly at the beg gars' resorts, the water being heated in big black kettles with a wood fire underneath. Tin cans and broken cups are brought into use by the va rious individuals. the scene in some respects resembling the camps of American tramps by the road side in summer.
 Late in the day or during the even ing substantial food is served, the beg gars paying the boss beggar in kind, or with a few rubIes, for whatever they may eat from the mess. The boss beggar does not actually beg himself. his chief duties being to cook the food brought by the others and to carry to and from their places of work" some of the beggars unable to walk or crawl because of their de- formities.
 When a beggars' feast is at its height, in Moscow, as much laughter and as much merry making may be heard as anywhere in Russia

 TO HAVE SPORTING
 CHANCE IN STUDIES

 Under present conditions all boys and girls are asked to do the same work. in the same way and the same time regardless of their capacities Under the new plan. they will be placed according to their particular talents, and get the same fair play that is accorded them in their sports and outdoor play.
 The Extension committee, of which Asst. Supt- J. B. DougaH is chairman, tension committee has been fortunate in securing the services or an espec1- ally strong man for the division of Intelligence Tests and Educational Measurements through arrangements with New York University.
 ''Dr. George B. Lawson. a graduate of Colgate, receiving his M. A. in 1901, and Doctors Degree in 1912. with and University of Bonn, Germany; several summer sessions at Columbia Was principal of Vermont Academy until 1916; then became head of De- State College for Women. He has been carrying on extension work for three years.
 Tn view of the high character of the instructor together with the an nouncement of Superintendent Cort- right that serious work in the use of intelligence and achievement tests would be inaugurated this year through a Bureau of Research and Measurement in the schools, a large registration ought to be assured for this course. The superintenden is working out plans whereby all se- niors at present in the City Normal School will take the course in antici- patton of the required knowledge in this field for future teachers work.
