cordance with the moral ideals. For
example The children would be
taught to perform acts of courtesy
to aged persons, TO suppress petty
stealing, to prevent ''bulldozing OF
smaller children by older boys and
many similar practices. \ feature of
this part Of the plan is the keeping
Of individual records by the club
members of the chores they do at
home well and willingly.
4 Character motives and personal
guidance. Under this phase of the
plan il is suggested that when serl-
Gus episodes occur in the life OF the
classroom or the school and the
children are interested to the point
where conversations and arguments
as to right and wrong are taking
place the teacher is TO take adVan-
tage of these occasions for c0nvinc-
ing argument in support of the mora !
ideals involved Under this head
ing the plan also urges teachers to
exert a strong PERSONAL influence over
each child as guidance rather than
domination, in addition to govern
mcnt in the classroom by the teach
er and class organization.
5. The final point in the plan is
the keeping of character charts by
months to show graphically how
each pupil is progressing in the de-
velopment of character in accord
ance with the morality code. The
outlines of the plan explains that
the charts may be used as the basis
for consultation between the teachers
and the principal on the subject of
character education. The charts
would he kept by the teacher as pri
vate information throughout the
school year for guidance in giving
assistance in character development

ents could be invited to consult with
the principal and the teacher con-
carning the child's progress in char
acter. and thus the charts would
become the basis for cooperation
between parents and teachers.
The Character Education institute
has not vet undertaken an organized
research into high school character
training. but has produced seven high
school "advices" TO encourage cnarac'
ter objective in high school education
The institution now is endeavorlng to
verify the value of these advices by
practical use. but is postponing thor
ouch research into the high school
problem until the success Of character
education in the elementary schools
has graduated into the high schools
through it's application in the lower
grades.
Discussing this phase Of the work
Mir FairchiId said the number of
suicides that have occurred among
students in the higher grades in VarI-
Gus parts of the country indicates to
him the need for instilling in these
older students the thought that life
holds many worthwhile objectives 30

data on character education may be

The committee which worked out
the plan of character education for
the Boston schools sought the as
sistance and collaboration of the iu-
stitution, according to Mr.. Fairchild.
He said also that the State superin-
tendent Of schools of Missouri, row
revising the courses of study for tlat
state. has sought the co-oDeration of
the institution. The institution like
wise has cO-operated with other coun-
tries In furnishing data on the sub

WANTS SOME OF BILL
STUARTS ILL-GOTTEN GAINS

At the request of Thomas J. Croaf,
counsel for L. L. Ferrall, former re-
ceiver of the United States land Of
flee at Phoenix and who is suing the
Prescott Evening Courier for $4,000
alleged libel in connection with de-
cision he made last year in favor of
Senator Ralph Cameron in regard to
mining claims" in the Grand Canyon
of the Colorado river, the hearing of
the demurrer of the defendant was
! postponed until next Monday.
Following action demanded by Har-
old Baxter, defense attorney, the court
decreed that the plaintiff should give
bond in the sum of $400 to cover
costs in the suit. The bond was
signed by David ]. Babbitt of the
Babbitt Brothers Trading company,
Phoenix, and Ray B. Brunshman, a
salesman for the same concern. Had
the bond not been provided, the case
would have been thrown out of court.
At a previous hearing Ferrall adj
mitted he had filed on some of the
claims for Cameron, which the federal
authorities recently ruled were not
legal, and all Of them, accordingly,
were cancelled. Ferrall based his IL
bel action on the statement published
in the Courier that, as land office re-
ceiver, he twas interested" in. the
claims in which he made ruling.
Ferrall, formerly of Coconino county,
has been associated in one way or an
other with Cameron for number of
years.

day between officials of the u. S.
department of the interior, the U. S.
bureau of public roads, and represent
atives of park operators, it was an
nounced that over a million and a

ties.
In discussing these developments,
John H. Edwards, assistant secretary
of the interior, who presided at the
conference said, 1.-THE increasing
popularity of the Grand Canyon nat
ional park has made necessary great
expansion of all facilities for handling
the rapidly increasing number Of
visitors to the park. From the stand
point of government expenditures,
it is urgently necessary that the park
system expand in order that everyone
may reach the more isolated beauty
spots of the area"
I'm order to accomplish this, the
interior department, through the
national park service, will authorize
a road construction program for the
current year costing s766,OO0,O0; this
amount to complete a hard surface
highway from the park headquarters
to Grand View and complete road

FORD YIELDS THE AUTO
LEAD TO GEN. MOTORS
Los Angeles Examiner,
Sunday March 27-1927

DETROIT, March 26.--No other
citv in the world can boast of two
1 such Industrial Goliaths as the Cen
eral Motors corporation and the Ford
] Motor company. The first paid, out
| more money in dividends last year
/ than any other company ever paid in
! Americas history. Ford used to rank
/ first in the motor industry. He has
/ lost that position-lost it badly.
Did you know that one unit of Gen.
eral Motors, alone, Chevrolet, is this
4 year making more cars than Ford
Today General Motors, is employing
over 10000 people, which IS said to
| be twice as many as the Ford Motor
/ Company.
/ Ford is operating only three days
/ week and at little better than half
| capacity during those days, according
to local information. General Motors
publishes a complete record of its
sales each month, but Ford doesn't.
Detroit feels that General Motors
has developed such tremendous
trength-physical strength, financial
strength. brain strength-that it will
successfully hold its own against any
and all competitors. The General
Motors new proving ground, covering
more than 1900 acres, near Detroit, is
the latest marvel of motordom. Here
every type of ear, domestic and for
Ieign, is put through every conceivable
| kind of test--X-rayed, SO to speak.
This enables the corporation to dis
cover the weak points and the strong
points of all cars and to profit from

Concluding, Mr.. Edwards stated,
During my inspection of Grand Can
yon national park, | have found that
such difficult problems as those of
sanitation, power supply, public auto
camps, and others have either been
solved or satisfactory solution is in
sight. The government spent $271,-
10000 for construction the past year
in addition to the large expenditures
Of park operators.
During the conference it was
brought out that road and other de-
velopments undertaken primarily to
make national parks and monuments
in Arizona and Utah more accessible
to the travelling public, will cause an
expenditure during the year by feder-
al, state and county authorities, and
park operators of very close to three
million dollars. One of the most i'm
poratant projects involving state
cooperation will be the construction
of the Lees Ferry bridge at a cost of
1885, 100000.
Those attending the conference
were: John H. Edwards, assistant
secretary of the interior, Horace M.
Albright, assistant director Of the
national par kservice (field) and
superintendent of Yellowstone nation
al park, D. L. l. Hewes, regional dir
ector, U. S. bureau of public roads,
