Behind Senator Copeland's project
for school house clinics to cure Juve-
nile delinquency at its conception Is
the long experience of the school
teacher, physician and legislator.
II was a teacher In Michigan" the
Senator recalled yesterday. my
students included every grade from
those learning the A B C's to high
school. One of my pupils was little
fellow bounded to slave driver Of
a farmer. John was routed out OF
bed before daybreak to do chores on
the farm. At 10 o'clock each morn
ing he got to school, tired and bitter.
I stopped him one day after school.
john I said, how are you get
ting along?'
He looked down and answered:
Rotten
Don't you like school?'
ono
What's wrong?'
Everything, he replied.
John, I replied, If you could do
anything in this world that you
wanted to do, just what would
you do?'
Would Like to Travel.
''Wen, he told me, he'd like to get
on ship and go far across the sea
from one port to another and see
what everybody was doing all over
the world"
So Teacher Copeland went to town
and bought the biggest geography
with the finest pictures he could find.
The next day he talked to John and
told him that it cost too much money
to travel all over the world and IL
years was too young to go away, any
way.
But I've got a dandy book here,
John. And I'd like to give 1t to you.
You can set out in 1t by yourself,
trace your course on the maps and
when you get your ships into port
you can read and find out what the
people there do
We'll. that boy took hold and the
change in him was really remark
able"
Senator Copeland first disclosed his
plan in Washington birthday ad-
dress before the Association of Oldest
Inhabitants. This week before the
annual convention of the Department
of Superintendent of the National
Educational Association he will for
mally place the scheme before the
Nation in a carefully prepared ad-
dress, Education and the Prevention
of Crime" AS chairman of the Sem
ete Crime Prevention Committee he
has made thorough study of crime
and It's parent-juvenile delinquency.
Wants d. C. to Take Lead.
Because Washington is the Capital
and is looked to by every city and
community in the country, Senator
Copeland wants the District Of Co.

MONUMENT REPAIR
TESTS BEING MADE
Bureau OF Standards Co.
operates With Office of
National Parks.

In connection with the proposed
repair work on the Washington Monu-
nent, for which a public works allot-
nent of 100000 has been made, the
Bureau of Standards Is cooperating
with the ONCE of National Parks,
Buildings and Reservations in study
of marble masonry joint treatments.
The experiments. the Bureau OF
Standards announced. are to deter
mine If a proposed plan of widening
the horizontal marble joints for an
inch or more from the surface and
refilling with a more elastic mortar
will overcome the spalling which has
been worrying Government officials
for several years. For this purpose it
was considered desirable to use marble
of the same kind as that in the
monument and which has been eX-
posed to the weather for a similar
period of time. Some blocks were
taken from the top Of the old Patent
Office building for the experiments,
since the marble in it came nearest to
satisfying these conditions.
Seek to Prevent Spalling.
In the study of marble masonry
joint treatment the point in question,
according to the Bureau of Standards,
Is to find a method Of preventing
spalling, which occurs on the marble
facing in the lower section Of the
monument. 1t occurs mainly on the
lower $50 feet of the structure and
affects the marble mainly along the
horizontal mortar joints.
A possible explanation given by the
bureau is that the marble is support
Ing more than its share of the super
imposed weight, and that this results
In the spalling With uniform dis
eribution of the load over a horizontal
section of the masonry at the ground
level and maximum wind pressure, nc
part would be stressed as much as
TOO pounds to the square inch.
Tests Made on Blocks!
Tests recently made on the marble
blocks of the Patent Office building
which have been exposed to the
weather for about 70 years indicated
q bearing power of more than 5000
pounds 10 the square inch. Hence the
spalling and cracking of the marble
indicate it is actually stressed much
more than the theoretical 700 pounds
TO the square inch.
Details of the early construction of
the Washington Monument are not
available. but 1t Is believed, the bu-
reau stated, that a rubble masonry
hlling exists between the outside
marble aShlar and inside walls Of
granite ashlar. Thin mortar Joints
in the ashlar masonry and thicker
mortar joints in the rubber fill. it
was believed. would account for un-
even distribution of the load.
