SALACIOUS MOVIES ARE
 SCORED BY PARENTS
Mothers Tell of Vain Protests Against Lurid and Immoral
 Pictures.

St. Paul, Minn.. May 7.-There is too much portrayal of crime, immor- ality and brutality in the movies" delegates to the convention of the Ma tional Congress of Mothers and Par ent-Teachers' association were told yesterday.
 Mrs. Charles E. Marian, of Chi cago, chairman of the better films committee, led round table discus sion that brought out unanimous dis approval of the filming of salacious books-"books the average boy and girl otherwise never would have heard about, one speaker said.
 We have protested, but in vain" Mrs. Merriam said. Even today the industry is filming two more vile books, one to be produced this week. The producers of this film announced that this week-which we are devot- ing to chiud welfare-is to be nation- ally advertised as love week.
 "The argument of the producers that unless they film this kind of pic ture they will have to go out Of busi- ness-that good pictures do not pay in the box office-is proved erroneous by their own figures"

OUTLINES POLICY
 OF SCHOOL BOARD
P. E. King Speaks on AccommO-
 dationS at P. and I. Meeting.

Assuring members of the Monroe school Parents and Teachers asso- citation that the needs of the district are not being overlooked by the board of education, P. r. King, acting chair man of the board, delivered an inn pressive address at the annual meet ing of the association last night. MT. King said that the board of education must view the school situation from the brcadest angle and base its de- cisions on the greatest benefit for the greatest number. He declared that the members of the board are not in- fluenced by any individual or group in arriving at a decision as to where new accommodations are needed but that they consider the accommoda- tions situation from the standpoint of achieving greatest benefits for the city as a whole rather than for any certain section. He told his audi ence that the board of education was aware of the demand for improved facilities in the Monroe school dis trict and had gone so far as to seek a site for a new school building. As soon as the proper location is de- termined, he said, the board would proceed to have new school erected. He asked the members of the asso- citation to cooperate in the develop ment of the boards policy which is to erect modern schools with audi toriums. gymnasiums and outdoor recreation space.
 Mir. King outlined the expenditure of the school department dollar and explained how each cent is spent He also spoke of the large part school expenses have in city ex- penditures and said that everyone should take live interest in the way the money is disposed of.
 The part the parent must take in the education of A child was em- phasized by Mir. King. Tn the first 14 years of a childs life only ' per cent of its time is spent under the supervision of school authorities, he said. proving that in the molding of character during the empressionable years, responsibility rests heavily on the parent.
 Mir. King was introduced by Walter Y, fletcher, presiuent or tne assocla- ton. A group of three ysongs was sung by Miss Ruth Schade, who was warmly applauded. She was &C., companied by Miss Clara ocott. Reports of Miss Eby Neri, secretary, and Miss Helen Wheeler, treasurer, were read and approved.
 Later in the evening the annual election of officers was held, resulting in the choice of oswald Richter for president. Clarence H. Barnes for yice-president, Miss Neri for secre- tary and Miss Wheeler for treasurer
 A delicious collation was served.
 The attendance was pleasing to the teachers who had arranged the pro gram and who were encouraged by the response Of the parents to their invitation to attend.

TABLE IS BARE BUT HE
 PRAYS FOR A LIMOUSINE
New Haven Man Also Said to Work for SIS a Weew When He Can
 Get $50.

New Haven, May That her hus- hand preferred to accept a position at SIS per week, preliminary to be- coming clergyman of the Second Advent faith, rather than resume his job as die sinker at $50 a week after being deprived of his license to prac- natureopathy as a result of the state medical probe, was testimony of Mrs. Mary Butler Hubbell of this city, whose application for removal of her husband, William II. Hubbell, as guardian of their two children was denied by Judge Gilson in the probate court here yesterday.
 Hubbell, it appeared from the evil dence adduced, left his trade as die sinker to become natureopath phy- sician after graduating from the Rlumer school of natureopathy, which was raided and closed by officials of the state during the grand jury inves- tigation of alleged medical frauds in the state. Hubbell began practice in New London, where he took his fam fly, both he and his wife espousing the Second Advent faith, according to tes- timony. Mrs. Hubbell was formerly a Roman Catholic, it appeared. Since her husband lost his natureopath li- cense Mrs. Hubbell has decided to re- turn to her former faith. it was shown and objected to education of the two children in the Advent school.
 Twenty-Five witnesses were brought from New London to testify at the hearing, and one of them describing visit to the Hubbell home for din- ner declared that the table was bare, but that Hubbell offered prayer in the course of which he asked that linn cuisine be left in front of his home the next morning, so that he could save ,,, ora aaulsn n

PARENT MUST HELP
 IN EDUCATING CHILD
Father Clabby Says Teacher Can
 not Assume Entire Burden

The regular meeting of the Parents and Teachers association of the Ma than Hale school was held in the au- ditorium of the school last evening. \ large number of the parents were present and splendid entertainment was furnished.
 Rev. Raymond J. Clabby, principal of St. Mary's school. was the speaker of the evening and took for his tonic he Parents and the School" Father Clabby explained how money is rais- cd for the maintenance of schools by axes and how it is expended. The speaker said that the three most val uable features in the bringing up and educating of the child are the home, ae school and the church. He told how the child is taken care of and trained in the home until it is four or five years of age when it is taken 5 ny the parent to the school where it it transferred to the teachers to be educated. Here it is that many parents make a mistake the speaker said. when they simply feel that their part of educating the child is to hand 1t over to the teachers and say Here is my child, take it, educate it. and when you have finished hand it back 10 me" The speaker said that this procedure is not the correct one to secure the best results but that the parents should cooperate with the teachers and consider suggestions as to the child's welfare received from he teachers. If the teachers and the parents cooperate the child will be Letter educated than it would be pos sible for either one or the other to do alone.
 In closing the speaker urged the parents and the teachers to get to- Sether as much as possible, not only with their regular association meet ings but during the school week and assured the parents that any coopera- ton on their part would be met with the utmost courtesy and willingness on the part of the teachers.
 The feature of the evenings enter tainment was a ''doll dance" given by the pupils of the primary grades. The dance was perfectly executed and by iequest of the assembly was twice re- peated. A vocal solo was rendered by Miss Anna Baloski and a piano solo was given by Miss Ruth Curtis. Both these numbers were we'll received.
