shortly before 9 o'clock.
Tabulation of yesterdays ballots in
the poll being taken by The Star to

residents showed 78 per cent plus to
be in favor of delaying the opening of
school from 8 until $50 o'clock, and
Fl per cent plus in favor of either
maintaining the present hour or ad-

On the two preceding days. voting
81 per cent and then 80 per cent of
the ballots were cast for the $50 hour,
with the minority votes for either
o"clock or earlier periods.
Few Oppose Change.
OF the 81 per cent of yesterdays
ballots which opposed delaying the
opening Of school until 9:30 o'clock,
only 3 per cent of the number were
FOR maintaining the present 8 o'clock
period, the major portion of this mi
nortty vote going for earlier hours,
8:15 or $50.
AT the conclusion of the ballot the
final report will be submitted to DR..
Frank w. Ballou, superintendent of
schools, for guidance of the Board of
Education in considering the proposed
change.
A new suggestion comes from Mary
D.. Sheads, principal of the Bryan
School, who spoke for the executive
committee of the Bryan Parent
Teacher Association. She proposed
that schools be convened at $40 and
closed at 2:30 for Whole-day schools
and at 4 pm. for afternoon schools,
which plan, she argued, would inter
fere only with breakfast in the morn
1ngS and would get all children home
in the afternoon before the homeward
rush Of traffic begins.
Principal Offers Pan.
Principal Sheads wrote:
IF the hour for opening schools is
delayed to $50, it will fix the time
for closing the afternoon first and sec
ond grade schools at pm. instead of
4:3O. No one need be told that at 5
o'clock the street is crowded with
autos hurrying home from offices and
other places or WOrk-SO much for the
added dangers for the little pupils.
Older pupils attending college at 5
o'clock or later will be obliged to skip
dinner in order to attend class. Again,
the half hour at the beginning of the
day cannot be utilized for study, piano
practice or other purpose nearly so
advantageously as could the half hour
coming between 2:30 and 8. l would
suggest that schools be convened at
$50 and close at 2:30 for whole day
schools and close afternoon schools at
o'clock, so as to get the smaller folks
safely home before the office hour clos
ing time. This would not diSarrange
dinner time or extra study time and
would safeguard our children far bet
ter than turning the last classes out
at pm"

did in an official vote on prohibi-
ton prior to the adoption of the
eighteenth amendment. The same is
true of st. Lawrence county, New
York, which was prohibition cen

and which is still that way, accord
ing to this referendum. The city of
Ogdensburg, however, located in ST.
Lawrence county, voted wet, as it
frequently did before prohibition.

towns rolling up big majorities the
city of Warren stood out as the lone
exception. The Warren vets got u

prohibition, 1881; for repeal, 5O4;
for modification, 1443.

a majority of the total vote, but
prohibition holds a plurality over
the two wet propositions. Ken

hibition, 2164 for repeal and 1904

ENTERTAINING PROGRAM
 AT PALACE

The program at the New Palace for the first half of this week which started last night consists of two ex- I.cellent features.
 Based on ''rhe Stumbling Herd,' John Moroso's powerful novel Of Americanism vs. bolsheyism, Rose of the Tenemcnts' easily won high praise from last nights audience. The film is striking portrayal of Red propaganda during the tumutu- ous days preceding our entrance into the world war, and has a strong love element that is built up in an in genious and absorbing manner | The work of Shirley Mason in the title role is splendidly done: when she discovers that the boy with whom she grew lip as a brother is in reality an orphan like herself, she rises to great dramatic heights, and her efforts to hold his love and keep his patriotism against the influence of the Bolshevist agitators puts her in the very front rank of emotional actresses.
 Johnny Harron gives a finely drawn portrayal of the boy, and is ably supported by the rest of the splendid cast. Phil Rosen who di- rectcd Abraham Lincoln also d- rected Rose of the Tenements.'
 The companion feature for this program is Buck Jones in "30 Below Zero"
