USELESS ENDOWNENTS

About 1UU years ago, according 10 an artlce re-
Gently published in the New York World, Phadel-
phan left large fortune for the establishment of an
orphanage for boys. He prominent man and his
example moved number of his fellow citizens to do
the thing. Quite number of orphanages were
established
1t turned out that there were places for or
phans than there were applicants. The endowments
became frozen The law required that they be spent
only for the designated purpose, yet that had become
obsolete. Litigation is pending for the purpose OF
finding out what can be done with that money.
Those orphanages are a striking example of
mistake which need not be made truly far-sghted
phanthropist no longer leaves his money to specific
charity. He leaves it to endowment foundation
with no strings tied to it, that it be used IN
future years according to needs that have arisen by
groups or organizations that equipped to recog-
nize and meet situations
1t would be fine thing if more lawyers, helping
clients to make wills, would remind them of the dan
ger of thwartng their generous purposes by tying
up their money in hard and fast beQuests.

COOLIDGE TO GO
 HUNTING SHORTLY Plans to Follow Dogs in Ken
 lucky This Winter

Superior, Wis. Sept. 5 R - Flu sive clay pigeons and flooded English setter puppy have put the fever of the hunt ill the veins of President Coolidge. He is going down to old "kaintuck" this win ter 10 follow the dogs.
 Breaking as many as c4 out of 25 of the whirling objects shot from the specially installed traps at Ce- dar Island lodge has made Nr. Coolidge think he is better than an average shot and he wants to try his skill on live game.
 When Palo Alto, five months old pup, was presented him yesterday. the chief executive turned to Col onel l.. w. Startling of his staff and said:
 Hunting This Winter
 Have this dog ready by winter. for l am going down to Kentucky this winter for some hunting" The dog is to be trained by Colonel Starling's brother at Hopkinsyille.
 The president today arranged to show newspapermen and photog- raphers that he has mastered the art of trapshooting. He invited them to the summer White House to witt ness an exhibition of skill. some Of which he displayed recently in hit ting a crane in full flight while on the river at Lewis. Wis.
 Following the special show at the lodge, Mir. Coolidge planned to come to Superior to attend the tri- state fair. The trip. which will con- sume but a few hours. is the last on his schedule before his return to Washington the first of next week. Only a few days will be spent at the capital. and he will then proceed to Vermont for q short stay.
 The president leaves the north woods a changed man. He confided to friends on his arr lival here last June that he had never been so tired in his life, and his lined face bore proof of his statement. Hours in the spicy air of the pines. on the Brule river fishing. trapshooting and tramplng. have taken the fatigue from his countenance.
 First Have Left
 The first of Mir. Coolidge's staff has departed, Col. Osmun Latrobe. his military aide, having gone east. Steps already have been taken 10 break camp on the Brule, and the middle Of next week will find the presidential party gone and the re- zion well on it's way toward nor- malcy.

Boston, Sept. 5 (UP)-eamusl Levy, Boston lawyer. was arrested for the second time in lees than two weeks. hers today. in counec- ton with alleged fraud in the handling of claims under the com pulsory automobile insurance act.
 The new complaint alleges that he stole $500 from Mrs. Alice Jen- nings, mother of four children and a widow of a Cam dian war veter- an. who was to have received tho money for serious injuries received by her seven-year-old son. John. in an automobile accident.

Survey of School Accommodations
 Nav Continue for Three Months
New Committee Expects to s VisIt Each of Fl School v
 Housss to Determine
 City's Needs.

A second survey of school ac- commodations begun yesterday by a committee under the chairmanship of former Mayor George 4. Quig- ley is expected to require three months to complete and postpone action on additional Senior High school facilities for corresponding period.
 Chairman Quigley. outlining the work of the committee. expressed d belief that even a longer period than that mentioned may be needed. He recommended that a thorough survey be taken. with each of the q schoolhouses in the city being visited and inspected, and that a school census be taken. At his sug- gestion, the committee will estab- lish offices in city hall and will ask the board of education for statisti- cal evidence of the need for greater facilities.
 Must Study Elementary Schools
 Commenting on the building pro- gram, the former mayor expressed a view that it was impossible to know exactly what the Junior High and Senior High school needs will be until the survey of elementary school accommodations has been completed. or in other words for three months at least.
 Mr. Quigley made an oral report on the findings of the group which was in charge of the Senior High school survey. He expressed regret that 1t was not possible to devote more time to the inquiry Virtually the only mention of the proposed addition was by Mayor Paonessa, who criticized the auditorium of D. 600 seating capacity which is pro- posed.
 Fred NJ. Hollfelder, one of the new members of the committee, asked If it was possible for the school board to proceed with q high school building without sanction of the general government and he was informed that it was not
 FAvors Experts Cooperation
 Finance Commissioner F. c. Kelly favored engaging expert advice in the inquiry and he asked the mayor if 1t was possible to obtain an ap- pfepriation for this purpose, but the mayor was of the opinion that this could not be done
 School finances and the need for additions in the elementary system were discussed ot length, bringing out the fact that about $1,000,00 must be made available for schools other than junior high and senior high within a few years.
 Comparisons were made between municipal and private school costs, the claim being made that the Sacred Heart parochial school whio h cost S1SO.000, offers nearly the same facilities as docs the proposed high school addition, which would cost t60O.000. ex-Mayor Quigley said.
 For $600,000 we should get big school and good one. not an an mex to another school" Secretary IT.. P. Smith interjected.
 Will Inspect Schools
 After . general discussion, it was voted to inspect one school Friday, September 14. at p. m. One after noon will be devoted to each build inc. Meanwhile the office in City hall will be fitted out.
 Present at yesterdays meeting be- ddes Mayor Paonessa, Chairman ouigiey and Secretary Smith, were the following committee members: Francis c. Kelly, Fred M Hollfelder and James J. Daily.
