THE TIME
TO KILL A
COLD
lis in the First Stage,
While it is Yet a
"Dry'' Cold!

Now it is known that a cold
ordinarily passes through three
stages. The first is the Dry
Stage, the first "a hours. The
second is the Watery Secretion
Stage, from l to 3 days. The
third, the Mucous Secretion stage.
Treated in the first stage, a cold
is far easier to kill. AS a matter
of fact, when a cold passes into
the second and third stages it is
apt to become settled in the syS-
TEN and dangerous.
Nip a cold in the bud by taking

The W.. c.. T. U. has always
shown an interest in adult cduca-
ton and this year as in, previous
years has offered a prize to the
pupils writing the best essays on
| prohibition. Freda Jacobs and
Robert st Hilaire were the recipi-
ents. Rev Oscar l.. Locke made
the presentation. He spoke of the
effect of alcohol on the nerves and
how it impaired ones health. He
particularly made Il point of the
result when user Of intoxicants
/ tries to drive a car. He expressed
his pleasure at the interest of the
evening school pupils in the sub
ject.
The state was represented by
M ISIS Mary Potter, field agent in
the department of adult education.
She told of some of her expert
ences in the evening schools. She
mentioned one class, she visited
where there were all married
couples. In talking with them she
found that one mother and father
were the leaders in the class. They
had decided to come to school be-
cause their boy was at college and
they could not read the letters he
sent home. They came to the
evening school to learn to read
his letters for themselves, and to
he able to write him of the init
mate home things he wanted to
know. She then spoke of her trip
from Atlantic to Pacific when she
saw many of the wonders of our
country, the glaciers, the noun
tGins, the parks and such things.
On her return. Connecticut seemed
rore beautiful than ever to her,
and in conclusion she read Il poem
my Connecticut"
Mr. Swift, superintendent of
schools, was the next speaker who
talk. He urged all to continue
their eduCation--to read newspa-
rers and good books, and suggest
ed that writing letters was a good
way to improve ones English. He
asked what one expected TO get

there is not life without progress.
He brought. out the idea that one
gets q certain sense of satisfa ction
from education. All were urged to
continue their learning by them
selves and then return to the even
ing classes when they opened again
next fall.
Because of the absence of Harry
Il. Hard, a member of the board
of education who had expected to
be present and give out the di-
Dlomas and certificates, Mr. Swift
awarded them.
The exercises concluded with
the audience and classes rising and
singing America, accompanied
b. the orchestra.
The teachers in the evening
schools are: Miss Margaret Soho
Ian, Miss Isabel Mackerracher and
Hiss Frances Griffin.
The complete list of those re-
cciving diplomas follows; Vincent

NEW TRENDS SEEN
IN HIGH SCHOOLS
Standards for College Entrance
Based on Social Aptitude, De-
clares Lehigh U. Dean

Significant trends in high school
policies were discussed by college and
high school officials at a meeting Fri
day night Of the District Educational
Association.
Dean Max McConn of Lehigh Uni
verSity declared the most decided change
has been in the selection of students to
go to college. This selection, he sug-
gested, should be based on accumulated
records, showing social and mental apt
itudes, rather than on the number Of
credits in subject matter Hugh NJ.
Sipple Of the Park School in Baltimore
advocated informal class procedure COM
bined with an activity program.
Other speakers included Dr. Harvey
Smith, principal OF Central High
School; DR.. Harold B. Warner, prin-
cipal Of Hine Junior High School. and
Dr. D. E. Windes of the University Of
Virginia. DR.. Smith contended there
was a decided movement away from the
special business and manual training
schools and a noticeable swing back to
the system of one comprehensive high
school.
A comparison of the Washington
school system with others was made by
DR.. Warner. This comparison, he said,
was very favorable to the local schools.
Dr. Windes discussed the unit plan Of
organizing subject matter.
DR.. j. Orin Powers, president Of the
District association, presided at the
meeting, which was held in Corcoran
Hall of George Washington University.
Announcement was made OF arrange
ments for the annual dinner on Feb

dent of the National Educational AsSo-
ciation, will be the honor guest.

LIMA, Peru, January 9.-The news
paper FL Comercio, commenting today
on the United States Senate inquiry
into South American loans, said debtor
nations were unable to meet their obli-
cations in this period of depression be-
cause their principal sources of income
had decreased to unbelieVably low levels.
Loans as political instruments have
been most harmful" the editorial said,
"and II the United States believed that
loans would tighten the links of friend
ship with South American nations, ex-
perience Is proving that this was an
error"
The editorial expressed regret that
the State Department yielded to the
pressure Of diplomats despite its knowl-
edge of conditions below the Rio
Grande.
with borrowed money" said the ar
ticle, ut was easy for the Latin gov
ernments to remain In power, depriving
democracies of civic rights"
The Senate investigation, said the
editorial, proves that the State De-
partment bears the moral responsibility
for every dollar American citizens lost
in buying South American bonds"
Most of the borrowed money was not
used for public Improvements. but
good portion was retained by the lend
ers to keep the international exchange
of the borrowers at convenient level,
the newspaper said. adding that the
Seligman report on Peruvian loans
frankly confessed that there was a
bribe, since Juan Jeguia, son of, the
ex-President, received s415,000."
ut Is regrettable that the national
interest was betrayed by that Presi-
dents relatives" the editorial asserted,
but the speculation charge against
them is confirmed now"
