DANCE LIKE GREEKS,
NOT KANGAROO, SAYS
PROFESSOR TROOP
Teachers Are Rebuked for
, Whispering at Meetings of
Montgomery County Institute.
NonniSTOWN, Oct 23,-County Super
intendent Landls from the platform of the
Opera House today rebuked teachers who
Insisted upon wlhsperlng to one another
11 though the session of the Montgomery
County Teachors' Institute, not only los
ing what tho lecturers were saying, but
Interfering with others who wanted to
hear.
Ho said that a teacher had come to him
nd complained that she could not hear
what was said through the talking of
other teachers around her, Tho County
Superintendent said that If this occurred
agnln during tho sessions, tho person
annoyed should stand up so that he
could locato the troublo and he would
see that It did not happen again,
The Greeks danced poetically and not
like kangaroos, as we danco In America
today," dealared Professor Troop, of
Toronto, in a lecture beforo the high
school section on "The Study of Poetry."
In determining tho dlffercnco between
poetry and prose, ho said that thoro was
a. mechanical difference nnd that real
poetry was something that could not bo
expressed In prose form. Tho poem
should bo read In school, he said, but,
like love, it should not bo analyzed. Ho
mid that a Harvard student, when asked
the dlffercnco between poetry and prose,
hud said that "prose Is the throwing of
words together to get good sense; poetry
la a putting together of words In metric
fcrm."
Another subject discussed in tho high
school section was "Tests In Efficiency,"
by S. E. Downs, superintendent of tho
Lower Merlon schools, who said that
the only thing to do with an Inefficient
teacher, when sho proved Incompetent,
was to recommend her dismissal.
To lllustrato her talk on "Motion
Bongs nnd Drills," Miss Laura Stnley, a
teacher In tho Lower Merlon schools, In
troduced a score of children brought
from tho Lower Merlon primary grado
and had them do a motion song. This
was a feature of the first and second
primary section.
In addressing tho rural school section,
Clarence Cooper, of Baltimore, said:
"You may think I am a strong follower
of Roosevelt. We all have to take our
hats off to Roosevelt, however, for his
Idea In tho Progressive platform of 'so
cial and industrial Justice.' Vital tonics
llko this should come into our history.
If history Is only to bo a record of wars
It should bo thrown out of tho schools.
Tho social and Industrial sides aro most
Important. All that Is necessary In tho
rural school Is tJnlted States history with
a European background. Nature study
Is not to bo seriously considered.
"The day Is coming when the teacher
must be a craftsman. Common knowl
edge should be the fundamentals, and
local conditions should govern the ac
cessory subjects. The farmer's child
should be taught arithmetic; not tho kind
which makes bookkeepers, but the kind
that will fit him to solve a real prob-
ine neeus or a particular com

Prices of vegetables, butter, eggs and
fish have Increased with the arrival of
cold weather. Tho most noticeable rise
prices In the vegetable market where al
most everything shows an Increase In
cost of from 5 to lo per cent., with the
exception of such produce as celery, cab
bage, turnips and beets, Just coming Into
the season.
There are other helpful signs, too, for
poultry dealers predict that the supply of
turkoy will bo exceptional becauso of the
long dry season. Turkeys hove been
scarce so far this year becauso there has
not been sufficient cold weather to cause
the fowl to cease their countryside ram
bles and stay nt home to fatten up In an
ticipation of Thanksgiving Day.
Meat prices remain steady. Pork chons
have dropped slightly and hams are sell
ing at from 20 to 22 cents a pound. Fruit
continues plentiful and of a god quality
with prices about usual for this time of
tho year.
One of the moit unusual features of
the market today Is the fact that stewing
chickens are bring almost as much as
roasting chickens. This is attributed to
the tendency among farmers to hold their
older chickens for laying. In anticipation
of seeing eggs rise to a high price.
Dealers, however, believe that present
prices for eggs will continue.
Butter Is selling at the average price
of 45 cents a pound. This Is not un
usual at this time of year for the milk
supply always shows a decrease with the
arrival of cold weather.
COMPARISON OP PRICES.
The following table shows the prices
now prevailing In tho larger markets of
the city as compared with those of last
week.
HAZLETOM, Pa., Oct. 29,-Not ft pound
of fuel was mined or prepared for mar
ket In tho anthracite coal fields of tho
Stalo today. Tho 200,000 employes of tho
collieries remained Idle to celebrate Mit
chell Day, so called because of the suc
cessful termination of the strike of 1900,
the first under tho direction of John Mit
chell, then national head of tho United
Mlno Workers, who, prior to that strug
gle had not been n strong factor In tho
hard coal belt. Only such mine em
ployes as firemen, engineers and pump
runners remained on duty, the rest of
the great army of wage-earners hold
ing parades and mass-meetings to com
memorate the victory that led to the
long tlo-up of 1900, Blnco which there
has been peace In the Industry. Tho
men won a 10 per cent, wage Increase
and other Important concessions that
year, and In 1902 the bitter light between
them nnd the operators was ended
through tho Strlko Commission appointed
by President Koosovelt. The award of
this body, of which ex-Judge dray, of
Delaware, was president, has been In
force since, with modifications from time
to time to meet now conditions.
Tho men of tho Haztoton district, com
prising tho Lehigh region, did not havo
a parade, but gathorcd at Lattlmer, tho
scone of the fatal shooting of a score of
striking marching miners by Sheriff's
deputies on Soptumbcr 10, 1897. Local and
visiting speakers appealed to tho work
ers t6 remain true to their organiza
tion, so they could continue to enjoy the
benefits of tho last 11 years.
Scranton and Wllkes-Barro Mine Work
ers appeared In Imposing parades. John
Mltchel. himself; John P. White, now
International President of tho Union,
were booked to be the chief speakers.
They were to appear In both cities, but
at different hours of tho day. The Mlno
Workers aro strongest In the Wyoming
and Lackawanna valleys whore, as else
where through the anthracite Held, tho
great majority of the men are Identified
with tho United Mlno Workers.
AMERICAN COPPER CARGOES
SEIZED OFF GIBRALTAR
British Charge Possible Reeonslgn
ment to Krupps
WASHING-TON, Oct 29. The seizure at
Gibraltar by British authorities of two
Italian vessels, the Sftn Giovanni and the
Itcglna d'ltnlla, carrying cargoes of
American copper, was reported to the
State Department today.
The report of the seizure was received
from four copper companies In New
York, shippers of the enrgoes held. They
requested the State Department to make
protest to Great Britain against confisca
tion of tho cargoes.
Tho State Department today cabled the
American Consul at Gibraltar for an ex
planation of tho detention of the vessels.
In this connection a report was also
awaited from the Consul regarding the
selzuro of the Bed Star liner Kroonlaml
there yostorday. It is probable that repre
sentations will bo made to Great Britain
Just as soon ns the department obtains
full details of the seizures.
The Snn Giovanni and tho Begins
d'ltnlla sailed from New York and were
on their way to Italian ports. Although
Great Britain has furnished no leason for
the detention of thesp ships at Olbrnttnr.
It Is assumed nt tho State Departmnt that
tho Gibraltar authorities suspected that
tho copper, after It had reached Italian
ports, would be reconslgned to the Krupps
In Germany and Austria.

WOODRUFF ACCUSES BLUECOAT
CAN SEGREGATE NEGRO
PUPILS, DIRECTORS LEARN
Member of State Education Bonrd
Makes Statement at Meting-.
NOmJlSTOWN. Oct. 29. Tho question
of pesregatlnff Nesro children In public
schools was brought up today at the Cist
session of the School Directors' Associa
tion of Montgomery County, when a direc
tor asked whether Negro children could
bo separately taught.
Tho question was answered by James
M. Coughlln, superintendent of the
Wllkes-Bnrre schools and a member of
the State Board of Education. Ho said
thero was nothing In tho school code to
prevent the building of a school for tho
instruction of Negro children or their
being tnught separately, providing they
were given the same surroundings and
tho Identical teaching as tho white ohll
drcn. A discussion on "Is the Trend of Public
School Work, Looking to the Future, Cor
rect?" was opened by the Itev. George
Lutz, Pcnnsburg. J. Vincent Poley, of
Hoycrsford, objected to the introduction
of fads in the school. He Bald there were
no royal roads to learning and no short
cuts to knowledge. When a director from
Hatboro asked how to run a school which
required JI1.000 on $8000. William Byrnes,
of Lower Merlon, replied that the only
way to do that was to Increase the tax
rate. "Too many directors are afraid to
do this for fear of defeat," sold Mr.
Byrnes. "This you need not be afraid of
If you give the taxpayers value for tho
money."
Resolutions were adopted on the death
of J. Arthur McFarland, of Gulf Mills,
killed ln nn automobile accident n few
ueeks ago. He was vice president of tho
association. His place was filled by tho
Rev. S. L. Messenger, Trnppe. J. Howard
Hrvlen was re-elected president, the Ilev.
N. B. Schmidt, secretary, and Frank S.
Brant, treasurer.
