TAUGHT
IN SCHOOLS

Special lessons In safety, pre-.
pared by the American Automobile
Association. have been introduced
into Washington public schools.
The safety work was tried out
during the last two months of the
last school year. and many teach
ers requested the A. A. A. TO con-
tinue the work.
The safety work does not supplant
anything now in the curriculum,
but simply adds TO 1t. Arithmetic
problems. for instance. are given
safety slant by having examples
worked out to show the percentage
of children killed and injured while
playing carelessly. Topics for oral
composition. such as Where I
should cross the streets on my way
to school" are also given. Golored
posters with the aim Of teaching
safety lessons are provided.
The work Is under the super
vision and approval of Selden M.
Ely, supervising principal in charge

EVANSTON, Ill, Aug. 10.-A pail
Of anxiety hung over Evanston
homes today as police sought to sift
out scattered clews that might lead
to solution Of the mystery which
surrounds the brutal murder of Miss
Jennie Constance.
Fears of another tragedy if the
killer remained at large led to for
nation of citizens committee Of
five to give any financial or scien-
tiflc aid the police might need.
The murder, which destroyed the
usual peace of the fashionable Chi
cago suburb, took place Tuesday
night, when Miss Contance was
beaten to death with a piece Of
iron pipe while returning to her
home from Northwestern University
Library.
Rewards totalling $4,000 were Of
fered Walter Dill Scott, president
Of Northwestern, where Miss Con-
stance was a summer student, Of
tered $1,000 in behalf of the uni-
versity and assured police of his CO.
operation.
Miss Constance's body will be
taken to Cumberland, Wis, her
birthplace, for burial. Her mother
and a sister, rooning with her here
while she studied for a Phi. D. de-
gree, were Frustrated.
Police were attempting to deter
mine the source Of the piece of pipe
which was found near the body on
the lawn of an Evanston home.
Finding Of the woman's purse a
block from the scene of the crime
led to attempts to learn what money
and articles she had carried. Rob-
berry virtually was discredited as a.
motive.
Some twenty-five characters we're
rounded up, it was said, for ques-
