Thp nl.l ni.r.. f ...j.. Arrowed from the English private school on the one hand and from the wrong Uennan school by Horace Mann on the other hnnd has been overloaded with what has been called fads. ihese fads were more or less the nsult of unintelligent attempts to util ize new ideas and new srstnmo ! simply adding to them courses of study which have already been enforced. "The result has been n complex of confusion which has wrought disastrous results in the lives of our children. These results are more serious than the warfare nhich has been waged both within nnd without educational circles over the importance of the "three It's." Three R's Assailed "The three R's were supposed to be the essence of practicality, when as a matter ;of fact they were but one more expression of the inadequacy of the American public school. The one great difficulty of the three R's as n basis of education is that they begin nowhere and end nowhere. They take the child from the home and force him through a crowded course which leaves him sus pended in mid-air at the conclusion of the effort. "There is no recognition of the neces sity of co-ordinat'ing the work of the world with the work of the school so that the school may serve as a real preparation for life? There is no recog nition that the child nt the period of adolescence, the most difficult period of his life, should be helped rather than hindered to adjust himself by reason of his educational experience. Must Work Together "The school and the children's and domestic relations courts cannot func tion in isolation. They must work to gether. There is every reason for this. especially in America, where human beings cannot be deprived of their liberty except through due process of law. Not only must the school func tion as a probation school for the chil dren's court, but the children's and do mestic relations courts must function as aids to the schools in handling dis riplinnry and governmental problems. The school, the children's courts and domestic relations court must start with certain fundamental facts in the mind. "Instead of persisting in our foolish Puritanical policv of suppressing boy zaucs. we should welcome them and 'utilize them for purposes of education land Americanization. Institutions with barracks like build, ings surrounded by Chinese walls can- not do its duty to backward children, Dr Hobart H. Todd, president of the National Conference of Education of Itackward Children, told the coofeieme today. He said : "No institution can properly fulltill its responsibilities if it is handicapped at the outset with a set of buildings that are nothing more than barracks, archaic in appearance, surrounded oy a wall copied from the Chinese, nnd the whole outfit serving practically the bame purpose, that on a smaller scale, the Iron cage does In the circus or the pig pen in the barnyaid. Small Capacity to Kstimate "When we begin to appreciate that the juvenile offender has little if any capacity to estimate, or comprehend the coasequenees of his misdoings, and that in the great majority of cases, he-is a misguided but usually otherwise a normal human being and entitled to be treated as such, then and not until then will we realize that reconstruction will not have much of a chance to be effec tive and lasting unless the boy Is sur rounded with an atmosphere that is open full of promise and does not con tinually remind him why he Is where he is. "Walls were never Intended to serve as mirrors In which boys might expect to see reflected happy and contented countenances, but for the farm more noble and glorious purpose of restrain ing, frightenlpg, coercing and Bubdulng stone walls do not a prison make or Iron bars a cage.

The finan cial policy for state institutional de velopment is one of the big problems of the New Jersey State Department of Tnstitutolns nnd Agencies nnd the state administration must be prepared to in dorse an intelligent plan for necessary development. So declared State Comp troller Newton A. K. Bugbee here to- duj at the nntionnl conference of social workers. He said the state needed ad ditional accommodations at once for the insane and feeble-minded, nnd had failed in the past to provide sufficient funds for the proper upkeep of institutional buildings. "It was a policy of false economy and must be rectified immediately If the state is to be saved further loss on its original investment."," Mr. Rugbec continued. He then declared that "ap propriation committees in the past have in the exercise of false economy re duced requests for current repairs. I can say to you that for every dollar that has been cut from n request for current repairs in the past, the state will now have to pay double if not more." He said that "institutions should receive appropriations for their entire expenditures directly from the state treasurer and thus abolish the. jircseut cumbersome system of appropriating part of the money required "from the treasury and crediting the institution with its earnings as an additional ap propriation." IF A HOTTENTOT HAS 9 LEGS, WHAT IS PONGEE? Such Will Be Questions for Pros pective U. of P. Classical Studehts to Answer How many legs has a Hottentot? Is pongee a soup or a motor? These are examples of the questions in psychological tests which may be given prospect h e University of Penn sylvania students next term in addition to the usual entrance examinations. Dr. George G. Chambers, director of admissions, has decided to experi ment with the intelligence tests used in the arnn to show the degree of mental alertness nnd amount of "horse sense" each man possesses. The answers must be made promptly. Answerh were speedy in the army, but the trouble was that many were incor rect. For example, some s6ldicrs gave a Hottentot as many as fourteen or eighteen legs, while pongee was mixed with noodles and flivvers. The tests in mental arithmetic are rapid-fire affairs. The men under ex - animation, for example, have a paper before them on which the numbers from one to ten are written. Ihey sit with their pencils held in the air while the instructor drawls sucn a promem as. "If ten is more than six, put a cross through the number which is six less than nine Then he savs : "Down up : llie members of the class bring their pencils lo th paper, make their marks and lift them again in the air. The answer is given in the fraction of a second. Sometimes it's correct. 37 QUALIFyToR POLICE List of Ellglbles for Department An nounced by Service Board An eligible list containing the names nt thlrtv-scvcu nersons who have quali fied for the position of patrolmen, Bureau of Police, has been made public by the Civil Service Commission.

KRUSEN ANNOUNCES 16 "DON'TS" TO CONTROL HEAT HARDSHIPS Sixteen "don'ts" for safeguarding the health against the hardships of the heat wave were promulgated today by Director Krusen, of the Department of Health and Charities. . ' Following are the director's not-weather health don'ts: Don't expose yourself unnecessarily to the direct rays of the sun. Walk on the shady side of the street. Don't spend the greater part, of the day watching the thermometer. Don't work in the heat of the sun without the protection of suitable head gear. Don't hurry. If you miss a. trolley or train, anothtx will be along shortly. Don't do twice as much work as usual. When feasible, work only in the cooler parts of the day. Don't let the children play in the direct rays of the sun. Don't take infants on shopping tours. Don't keep the baby on the top floor of the house-. Don't permit the old folks to exert themselves. Don't eat too much. Eat sparing of meat, butter, pastry and starchy foods. The diet should consist largely of nonheat-producing foods, such as fruits nnd vegetables. Don't eat too fast Don't forget to drink plenty of cool water. Don't drink water that is ice cold. Weak tea or lemonade without sugnr will lessen the thirst. Don't forget to bathe daily. A cold plunge or shower in the morning prepares the way for an active day's work. Don't wear heavy clothing for style when lightweight and light-colored clothing can be worn for tomfort. Don't indulge in alcoholic beverages. If they nrc used to keep warm in winter thej certainly will not keep the body cool in summer. Keep the mind occupied to divert attention from the heat of the day. ROSIE, KIDNAPPED B Y MOTHER, NOW HAPPY AT OWN HOME A Tea Party, a Doll and "Mom" All the World Smiles for Child Surrendered Rosie Coughlin, of 3716 Brandywine street, was having a tea party today. There were no engraved invitations. Neither were the guests grand dames of fashion. There weren't any flowers or silver and fine linen. But it was the very happiest tea party Rosie ever had. and her guests almost cried from sheer joy. In fact, the most important guest, Mrs. Mary Coughlin, did surreptitiously wipe a tear from her eyes now and then. The other guest was rather battered and queer looking and some folk might have though her immodest in costume. Her checks were faded, most of her' hair was gone ; her legs had been amputated and her hands were' missing. Perhaps that was why she wore only a bit of muslin across her shoulders. But then, she's only a doll, you know. Wee Role distributed her aresscs and her crackers and water impartially, and laughed merrily the while, The tea table was the window ledge. and Maryanne (the doll) was propped on a cigar box beside the array of tiny1bo.vs arc ln school, Rosie is four years broken plates. There was only one toy cup. so- the hostess nnd guests took turns about using it "It's a nice party, isn't it, mon?" smiled the hostess, nnd .for just a min ute she climbed into Mrs. Coughlin'B lap and put her soft, bare arms about the older woman's neck. SLEEP WHILE HOUSE BURNS Fire Engine Bells, However, Speed ily Awaken Occupants Fire of unknown origin destroyed the kitchen nnd a fence in the rear of the home of David Brayer. 1406 Franklin street, early tod.iy. The damage Js esti mated at $000. Brayer and his wife and four children were sleeping on the second floor, and three roomers were asleep on the third floor when the blaze was discovered by a neighbor. The occupants of the house were awakened hy the arrival of the fire engines. .Poor Fish! Might Just ' as Well Blame 'Em Don't' know what the country's rushing to Here comes "Dad" Swartz, of T.ansdale, veteran sportsman, whose rod and gun exploits covr nearly half a century, with the saddening statement : "There was a time when quail were as thick in Montgomery county as grasshoppers," he said, "and the waters of Neshamlny in Bucks were as full of fish as there are sold 'fish In a bird store aquarium. Why,'' even the stumps and fallen logs along the Neshamlny are worn smooth 'from being sat upon." "Dad" was moved to say this because one 6f the members of the North Penn Gun Club, of 'orrls town, ssld that there was satinuch sport in the Delaware Gap section that the rough edges of the rocks along the streams were worn away by the many rambling feet of In spired Izaak Waltons. -r by Foster Mother "I'se glad to be here. I love you and Maryanne." In a court hearing yesterday the "adopted" mother ngreed'to give Rose up and she went home in her mother's arms. "God love her!" whispered the real mother, with a catch In her voice. "Now my Rosie is back, we'll all be happy. And you shall have a new doll. Daddy's promised to buy it Sat urday." It was last Saturday that Mrs. Coughliu, longing to see her baby, walked to the neighborhood where the foster mother, Mrs. Coughlln's sister--in-law. lived, and saw the child play ing in ,the street. "I called her to come with me," Mrs. Coughlin said today, "and she was so tickled. I told her to leave her kiddy car, I'd buy her another, and I brought her home. I've no clothes for her now, but I'll make her some right away. "We'll get along all right now that I'm well, and can go to work again soon. Yes, there are three other chil dren. My mother-in-law is taking care of Marie, the oldest, and the two little old. The baby died last fall when we were all sick with the flu." It was at that time that Rosie went to her aunt's. Mrs. Coughlin was arraigned before Magistrate Jtccleary on a charge of kid napping her child, but the mother's pleadings were so pitiful she was al lowed to keep the little girl. 98 AT SCRANT0N High Mark Also at Boston In June Heat Wave Wa&lilngton, June 4.

D0GCATCHERS IGNORE LOVE So Brlndle Pup )li Seized, Leaving Kitty Playmate In Sorrow The dogcatchersT were busy In the oio jenaerioin district this morning, and they broke up one happy couple's career. He was a brindle puppy scarcely steady on his feet yet, and she was, and Is yet, a bonny though rather be draggled little kitten, that played with him in. Winter street, near Tenth. The two were playipg this morning, rolling and tumbling nbout In the sun shine, when along came a man with a jiet. With tongue lolling out rougishly, and eye cast sldewlse to see if Kitty was following, the pup galloped out to Tenth street. There was no license tag on him, and so he was carried, yelping helplessly in the pet, to the wagon for doomed dogs. The kitten followed mewing. She was the Poor Butterfly of the little alley drama. In response to the distress cries of the pup, a dozen others of no breed, but ready sympathy, came thumping to the scene. Meanwhile, the police got interested, and tried to corral this new crowd and drive it toward other dog catchers in the neighborhood. But evidently the god of homeless dogs was kind, for not a net appeared, and finally Tenth and Winter streets was quiet again, except for one scared, lonesome kitten on a shabby brick wall, nud one curious old cur from Franklin .Square, who cocked a canine eye up at her and wondered how she was con nected with the performance.

While no trains ar rived from or departed from Chihuahua city yesterday, and use of the telegraph lines was denied the.public, army offi cers here assert conditions are normal at the Mexican state capital, and that no attack has been made by the rebels and none Is expected. f Unconfirmed advices received at Washington last night said that Villa forces captured Chihuahua Monday. , The following summary of conditions I In northern Mexico was given out at military headquarters: "There arc 8000 soldiers at Chihua hua, under General Jesus A. Castro. Between Chihuahua and Santa Rosalia there are S000 men, under General Miguel Dieguez. General Dicguez ar rived at Santa Rosalia at noon Mon day from Mexico City, having left 2000 of his men at Torreon, bringing the gar rison of that place up to 5000 men, There arc 2500 men in the Juarez gar rison. ' "Against this army Villa and Angeles arc trying to make a showing with 2000 men, poorly supplied with food and munitions. That is why we are sleeping soundly in Juarez. Since Generals Ro salio Hernandez and Pethonllo Hernan dez drove the rebels away from Santa Rosalia last week Villa's men have re treated to the hills, just as they left for the hills after their attack on Par ral. "There are no rebels In the vicinity of Casas Grandcs or Villa Ahumada, but it Is believed Martin Lopez's band is headed for some point on the. border, probably cast of Juarez." In explanation of the abandonment of train service on the Mexican Cen tral, it wsb said the equipment was being used to bring re -enforcements to Chihuahua City. Villa sympathizers confirmed the re port that there has been no attack on Chihuahua City and that none was contemplated. These men discredit the claims of the federals concerning the number of federal troops in Chihuahua and Torreon. The latter place, which is the key to the railroads of northern Mexico, is believed to be the real ob jective of the Angelcs-VIlla forces. Once in control of Torreon the rebels could prevent federal re-enforcementa being sent north and the states of Durando and Chihuahua would be iso lated. Laredo, Texas. June 4. (By A. P.) A Mexican who arrived here from Parral, Chihuahua, declared a regi ment of newly equipped Carranza troops sent to attack Villa forces at Parral, went over to the revolutionary forces in a body without engaging them. The troops, nccording to the man's story, were organized at Juarez and their equipment included COO horses recent ly purchased by the Mexican Govern ment from the United States remount station at Fort Bliss.
