FISH HATCHERY PLAN
OF CITY OFFICIALS
IN WOODLAWN LAKE

A fish hatchery to keep Woodlawn
lake stocked in future years is being
planned by city officials.
The plan is to convert the small pool
below the main lake into three small
lakes which will form the hatchery.
The overflow from the swimming pool
will keep a fresh stream of water
running through.
The government will furnish large
supply with which to begin the
hatchery. Each year a large number
of fish will be transferred to Wood,
lawn lake. Fishing will be prohibit
ed until next year, Mayor John W.
Tobin said.
The fish were put back in the lake
last week after being kept in the
small pond all summer.

ARMY REWARDS
" THREE LOYAL
PRISONERS

Two general prisoners at Fort Sam
Houston will be given easy jobs and
steps to return another to duty will
be fastened while an erstwhile prison
guard awaits trial by general court
martial as the result of the latter's
efforts to ego over the hill"
Soon after noon Thursday the sen
try took off his cartridge belt and
hurled it and his rifle at one of the
prisoners, saying that he was going
over the hill"
None of the prisoners accepted his
invitation to accompany him.
The prisoner to whom the gun was
thrown marched the other two to the
veterinary hospital and phoned to
Captain c. Muller, officer in charge of
the prisoners, for instructions.
Captain Muller got in his car and
took them to the guardhouse.
Virgil c. Polk, the one who took
charge of the others, had already been
before a board that was planning to
return him to duty. His release from
the guardhouse will be fastened by
his act.
The other two prisoners still. have
about six months to serve, but Cap
tain Muller declares they will not be
assigned to hard or disagreeable jobs
during the balance of their terms.
The sentry returned to his quarters
either to get his belongings or to give
himself up, and was placed in con-

STREET REBUILDING
COSTS ARE HEAVY

Failure of the original owners to
get grades from the city several years
ago is costing residents in Highland
Park as well as the city itself thou
sands of dollars to rebuild portions of
the principal streets in the addition, ="
Paul Steffler, street commissioner, said
Saturday.
Next week the city will begin work
on grading about ten cross streets
which run into Rigsby avenue, which
has just been paved, according to Mr..
Steffler. ....
The streets at their intersections
with Rigsby avenue are two feet too
high which will necessitate the cut
ting down of the surplus ground. =

Manila, Sept. 10.-(AP)-That a
special system of instructions is de-
sirable for the Non-Christian peo-
Piles of the Philippines, especially
for the Moros who inhabit Mindanao
and Sulu and who are Mohammed-
ans, is the conclusion of board of
American experts, headed by DR..
Paul Monroe of Columbia Univer-
sity, which spent four months in
making a survey of the educational
system of the islands.
The board suggested that a spe-
cial department of the bureau of
education be created to take charge
and make a close study of school
work among these peoples. The
boards report says:
1.-THE Non-Christian peoples need
a system of education that in many
essential respects should differ from
that developed for the great mass
of the Filipino people. Only by such
special treatment can the Nom
Christian peoples be brought up to
the cultural and economic level of
the Christian population. To give
them the same education as that of
the Christian peoples results simply
