JaU. 1L Mrs. nutn M. fora- eroyi There Is a boy ln this city with the alllteratlvo namo of Percy Pierce, who is particularly fortunato from two stand points, one of which Is that ho was born with a talent for mechanics and tho other that he Is possessed of a mothr capable of understanding tho natural gifts of her son, and herself having no Httlo me chanical genius and a great deal of ex ecutive ability. Mrs. Edith W. Pierce Is known through out the length nnd breadth of the city, and outside Us limits, too, for that mat ter, as a most efficient inspector in the Bureau of Street Cleaning. Tho particular bent of Percy Pierce's mind Is toward aviation, and It is not going wide of the mark to say that ho began the study of air flight at a younger period of life than It had ever been taken up seriously by any other boy. NOT AN INFANT PRODIGT. It Is quite a relief to find no trace of the infant prodigy about this youth. To all appearances, he Is a normal boy, tall but slightly built, and with an open, honest countenance and the face of an idealist. Ho impresses those with whom he converses with the fact that he knows his subject and knows that he knows it, yet his knowledge Is not thrust down one's throat. He also makes you feel he Is a lltttle too serious, but what can bo expected from one who was planning flying machines and building them so that they were made to fly at an ago when his playmates were devoting their surplus energies to mumbly peg, tip cat and marbles? PEnCT IN HIS WORKSHOP. Percy was found In his workshop in the cellar ot his mother's home, 6103 Catharine street About half of thin Place is filled with his workbench and appliances Incident to his work. The fact that he is In close contact with tho ordinary implements of domesticity makes no difference to him, as neatness and order prevail. The confusion which Is thought by some to be- a necessary ad junct to genius Is entirely absent. Packed away carefully is a headless biplane gilder, upon which he expects money Is 26-FOOT GLIDER BUILT BY YOUNG PIERCE, WHO HAS MADE MORE THAN 50 FLIGHTS expressing myself, which means success. "So, for ' tho same reason," she con tinued, "give a child a chance to ex press himself. With ovory one there are latent powers, although often not found until lato in life, sometimes not nt all, because of a lack of encouragement. The drawing-out process should bo started as soon as possible. Individuality should never be destroyed. That Is the great fault of our public school system, the samo mental food Is given to all nllke. Just like feeding a thousand children with tho same kind of physical food, whether thoy like it or are ablo to digest It or not. "I am never afraid to let him mako flights In tho air," she said. "There is far more danger ln letting our boys run the Btreets or loaf about with ldlo compan ions than over can be found In soaring among the clouds."

At the age of 14 Percy was Invited to attend an exhibition of aerial craft held In Boston. Along with his ba?saira ha paoked a few small gliders as samples to Interest boys In the mysteries of flying. Much to his astonishment, there was an Instant demand for them, and In a few minutes his stock was depleted. Later In the afternoon he bought paper and paste and sat up nearly all night making these miniature air machines. The fol lowing morning he put them on sale at 10 cents each. They went like hot cakes. Then business Instincts came to the surface. He wired his mother to mako all the gliders possible and ship them without delay. During the next few days the home circle was kept busy fostering the new enterprise, with the result that Percy returned home with h's pockets stuffed with bank notes, for which he had changed his nickels, dimes and quarters. The venture netted him nearly 3500. MADE AEROPLANE AT TEN, When this lad was a youngster of 10, he calmly proceeded to develop an aeroplane to be run by a two-horsepower engine. Before this he had Invented a heavier than-alr machine with vibrating planes and screw propeller. To all intents and purposes these were his own inventions. First experiments were made ln the back yard, and from the modest gliders the evolution continued until his giant 26 footer was built last year In his cellar. In this he made several, successful flights, the gilder being towed by a 60 horsepower automobile. The towing rope was cut after sufficient momentum had been given to enable the machine to rise, as It has no motive power of its own. Percy believed he could make a success ful flight and the auto started at a SO-mlle-an-hour clip. When the brow pf the hill was reached the inventor and pilot sud denly realized he was soaring over the auto at a dangerous angle. The controls filled to respond quickly enough to save jHhe right wing from a slight smash. WHAT MRS, PIERCE THINKS. "When mothers have been disturbed by the fact that Invention, or even the spirit of invention, may take away their chil dren's Interest from their studies. I in-, variably say, 'Let them express them selves,' " said Mrs. Pierce. "In my work, whloli U in connection with the Street Cleaning Department, ray duties lead mt to- wojjt tn co-operation wb the munici pality along lines of prevention Thte la my own W, and by oomlpg Ju cootaot with weweo and their tntrta I am fully Haddonfleld Millionaire Pirst to Evi dence New Interest in Religion. HADDONFIELD, N. J., Jan. ll.-Thls town Is feeling the result of the "Billy" Sunday campaign In Philadelphia. Trail hitters already have come forward, the first being a local millionaire. The work began yesterday morning when a meet ing of delegates from every church In town was held In the Presbyterian church. A band of "welcomers" wns formed. Testerday afternoon 425 men gathered In Artisans' Hall and heard George Long, head of the Inasmuch Mission, of Phila delphia, tell of the work being dono by "Billy" Sunday. The meeting was ar ranged by a committee of 25 persons ap pointed in the morning. Mr. Long was assisted by Mrs. Long, Joseph M. Weston, of Camden, nnd Henry W. Pennypacker, ot Haddonfleld. At the conclusion of his talk, Mr. Long asked those who believed the world needed a greater Christianity to grasp his hand as he walked through tho audi ence. Henry D. Moore, known ns one of the town's wealthiest men, was tho llrst to grasp Mr. Long's hand. Besides this manifestation, prayers were offered In each church of the bor ough for the Buccess of the "Billy" Sun day campaign. The Rev. William Allen, Jr., pastor or the First Presbyterian Church, who last Sunday called the "Sunday" campaign to the attention of his congregation, strongly urged each member of his church to attend tho tnbernaclo meetings. Tho Rev. J. M. T. Chlldrev. of tho First Baptist Church, and the Rev. Alphonse Dare, of the Methodist church, also offered prnyers. At the conclusion of the morning serv ices, each pastor asserted he noted many members of his church present who had mt nttpnilcil n. service for months, The epeclal committee ot 25 persons will enrry on follow-up work Tn welcoming converts. GERMAN FLEETS REPORTED ACTIVE OFF SOUTH AMERICA British Vessels Ordered to Stay ln Brazilian Ports. RIO JANEIRO. Jan. 11. British vessels all along the Brazilian and Argentlno coast have been ordered to remain In port because of the report that another German squadron Is operating along the Brazilian coast. No Information regard ing ths composition of this squadron Is available here, although one report says that the Karlsruhe and her convoys have been augmented by German warships that ran the gauntlet of the British fleet ln the North Sea and escaped. There Is no confirmation of the reports received on Saturday night that the British cruiser Invincible sank the Ger man battle cruiser Von der Tann In a stand-up battle off the coast of Pernam- buco. The Minister or .Marine, Admiral Alpncar, says the Invincible sailed from Recife, Pepiambuco, on Saturday after noon, and that later she passed the Argentine dreadnought Rlvadavla off shore. He said that the warships may have exchanged salutes and that this may have been responsible for the story. Nevertheless the reports of a battle be tween the Invincible and a German war ship continue to be circulated, although the dlplomatlo officials ot both England and Germany discredit them. BRITISH ROUTED IN AFRICA at Tanga, 6000 Reported Xost German Post. BERLIN, Jan. ll.-The Official Press Bureau publishes tho following: "The Morgen Post prints details of a recent British attack on Tanga, German East Africa, which apparently emanated from the German Colonial Office. The first landing of 6000 British and Hindus was repulsed by the Germans, who num bered about 200, the British losing 6000 killed or wounded. The British attacked the, next day with reinforcements, but again were defeated with a loss of 3000. They then re-embarked and sailed tor Mombasa."

GARRISON ADVOCATES PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENCE War Secretary Discounts Military Value of Islands, WASHINGTON, Jan. ll.-Bccretary of War Garrison today appeared before the Senate Philippine Committee In support of tho bill to grant Independence to the Filipinos. He aald he had no objection to make tho preamble of tho bill require "a Just, stabto and representative govern' ment" Instead of merely "a stabto govern ment." To tho suggestion of Senator Llppltt, of Rhode Island, that nil tho people should bo educated In English before In dependence should bo granted, Garrison replied that suoli n, condition never had been established In tho United States, since nil campaign lltcraturo In this country was printed In sir or eight languages. As to the Moros, ho said he would ask that the bill bo amended to provldo a special vlco governor to deal with tholr affairs and with health and education In the Islands. Questioned ns to the military value of tho Islands, tho Secretary said thoy wero "obviously a military liability" to tho United States. "I do not think Initially we could hold them," Secretary Garrison said, "nnrnlnnt a first class military power. Any military nation in tno far east from the very fact of Its proximity could take them. Our disadvantages In sending a defensive force might bo compared to that of China sending a defensive force to Cuba." TWO-OENT STAMP -IMITATIONS Postage Not Sufficient for Letters to Antipodes. Postmaster Thornton announced today many letters were being sent through the local Poslofflco to Australia and New Zealand with 2-cent stamps on them. This, tho Postmaster said, should not continue, ns the two countries did not come within the scope of the agreements between this country and Great Britain by which letters could bo sent to Eng land, Scotland, Ireland and Wales for 2 cents. The countries which come under such agreements, In addition to the four men tioned, aro Canada, tho Bahamas, Cuba, Moxlco, Panama, New Foundland, the Canal Zone, Germany (by direct steam ships only) nnd tho city of Shanghai. Tho Postmaster wishes to call the attention of the public to this fact In order to avoid future complications Involving tho deten tion ot mall for tho Antipodes not prop erly prepaid.

Tho Property Committee of the Edu cation Board Is now engaged In a search for a Bite In tho suburban section of tho city, having been requested to tako such action by the Commlttoo on Elementary Schools, which Is constantly fnclng tho problem of enforcing the compulsory education act and Insuring tho preva lence of classroom discipline throughout the city. Social workers and .educators have for several years been agitating the estab lishment of a school which will meet the needs of boys who are not capnblo of adapting themselves to ordinary classed, but who are not so delinquent that the Juvenile Court would bo Justified In com mitting them to reformatories. No date has been set for the erection of tho school nor has any resolution been Introduced determining tho number of pupils to bo accommodated. It will ba conducted under rigorous dlsclpllnaty regulations with no features of normal homo llfo eliminated.
