Local Educators Plan Varied Program for National
kindergarten Association Members Pre-
pare Interesting Paper Meeting at Wildly

Sup. Condor today expressed the
hope that as many as possible of
those interested visit the city's
schools tomorrow. Principals and
teachers, he said, will welcome all
visitors and will be more than
pleased to let them observe classes
in actual operation. Parents and
adult friends of public school stu
dents are expected in large num-
bers.
In connection with the local OBJ
servance of American Education
week, a paper on 1.-The Value of a
Year in kindergarten" has been
prepared by three members of the
local kindergarten Teachers asso-
citation, Misses Mar E Kennedy,
Mary c. O'Connor and Maud E..
Dimmick.
The paper follows:
What is the kindergarten of to-
day? Is 1t simply place for John
ME or Mary while mother Is busy,
or is it valuable part of the
school system?
The question has probably en-
tered the mind of every parent,
"Shall 1 send my child to kinder
garten?" and the decision made
was determined by their under
standing of the meaning of kinder
garten and what the teachers were
trying to do with the impression
able years Of the child's life.
Friedrich Froebel, the founder of
kindergartens, thought of his
school as a garden where children
grew. He felt the child worked out
but he realized her influence might
be too great. Froebel reverenced
much to allow the teacher to over
shadow 1t or restrict its growth by

that grand juries seldom failed to in

though the prosecution often fell down
because witnesses were intimidated or
murdered.
A Cook County grand jury in Chicaeo
did not hesitate to indict Danny Nc
Geoghsgan for bank robbery, even
though McGeoghegan and his gang we.e
so badly feared that when he came up
last year for second trial after a dis
agreement in his first trial Judge John

Boss Tweed Case Cited.
Going further back, New York County
grand juries indicted Boss Tweed and

And so I could continue. That some
grand juries have proved weak or po-
litically controlled is undeniably true,
but the record Of indictments against
supposedly invincible political bosses
and members Of dreaded secret organi-
cations Of criminals proves that this
branch Of our legal system still merits
the red badge of courage won by the
grand jury Of Middlesex, England, in
1881.
That memorable year saw the grand
jury throw out bill charging the Earl
Of Shaftesbury with treason. The lord
threatened the grand jurors for ignoring
his wish and that Of the King. Charles
II. One Of the grand jurors was a
member Of Parliament. At his request

the bar Of the House Of Commons and

The explanation of why the grand

does not achieve more and have high

fully about its power to indict on its

sources including, in some jurisdictions

The power Of Georgia grand juries
to investigate practically all of the
functions Of the local government was
brought into the limelight when the
March-April, 1888, grand jury Of Fulton
County, in which Atlanta is situated,
returned sweeping presentment
against the county commissioners, the
salaries paid to the county Judges at the
discretion of the county commissioners
(some of which were more than the SAL
ary paid to the chief justice Of Georgia's
Supreme Court and against other acts
by the commissioners and other officials.
The return Of such presentment was
objected to in joint order signed by
the county judges, whereupon the grand
jury indicted the county commissioners
for conspiracy to misapply the county
funds In this instance the powers Of
the grand jury were hotly contested, but
the presentment received such wide pub
licity and raised such row-which has
not yet subsided-that the people Of
the county must eventually benefit by
improvement in the local government.

tie, former United States attorney for
the southern district Of New York, in an
article in the March-April, 1888, issue
of the Panel.
At present the Association of Grand
Jurors of New York County, through its
publication, the Panel, and in other
ways is concentrating upon what we
have called auditing" grand juries.
Such grand juries. once provided for
by law, would sit for three months or
more in large cities or thickly populated
counties, free from routine cases, and,
with their own counsel and examiners.
would have the duty Of inquiring regu-
larly into the conduct Of local govern
nent. whether or not charges had been
preferred against officials.
These auditing" grand juries, having
unlimited power to subpoena persons
and documents, as all grand juries have,
would call before them those who make
accusations against officials and force
them to make good-if they have the
goods or can point to where the goods
could be obtained. They would also
make annual or semi annual inspections
Of local government institutions, includ-
| ing the criminal courts and the odices
Of prosecutors. In other words, they
would audit" through their counsel
and examiners, the local government.

Informed by Western Senators that

Earth near Detroit Lakes, states that
the camp opened with capacity en-
rollment. An excerpt of his letter
follows:
Camp is to say the least more
satisfactory than expected. On our
opening day we had a full camp
in fact because of lack of room it
was necessary to turn down several
boys. From the looks of things thus
far most of the boys are going to stay
from four to eight weeks and we
have several boys scheduled to come
during the last half so will have
nearly a full house all season. Yes
terday was visitors day and our back
yard was packed with Packards, Cad
illacs, Auburns, etc., and we can hon
estly say that every parent was more
than satisfied.
Our swimming beach is perfect
and to date we haven't a boy who
doesn't swim 100 yards daily. All in
all we are pretty well established

boats, three canoes, tents, and two
cupboard motors
