Dr. Ochaeffer makes his observation because of the idea some educators have gotten that because of the war "their teaching must be completely revolutionized in nim, method and content." Hp says that there are constants as well as vari ables in school work and that "the constants* are more numerous than the variables and the changes after the war will not be as numerous us many in their bewilderment and hysteria now imagine." Among the constants are reading and writing, arithmetic and English as "the rudiments of an English edu cation are essential in citizens who shall bo 100 per cent. American;" history, geography, the principles of percentage and the law of gravlta tbn. The superintendent says: "There are unchangeable laws of development in the growth of human beings. These were not modified by the war. The war may, however, make us undegstand and appreciate these as never before and thus cause us to lay greater stress upon certain phases of instruction in health and sanitation, upon the proper uses of the soil, food, fuel, clothing, shelter and upon the things that really help make ltfe worth living." Dr. Schaefter also says: "Our continuation schools must change so as to throw off their European limitations and assume the ideals which are characteristic of the American school. The general in dustrial school must no longer be limited to districts with a popula tion of 25,000. Our experience with military units in colleges and secondary schools will enable im to decide whether or not we shall continue to follow the examplo of France in excluding military train ing from the secondary schools and also In how far sych training can be effectively combined with the regular academic and professional training of our colleges and uni versities." A strong appeal is made for pro vision for continuing education of those whose schooling was inter rupted by enlistment of the draft, while regarding the recommendation of the State Board of Education for a twenty-five per cent, emergency increase in teachers' salaries Dr. Schaeffer says "Patriotism may for a time hold the teacher in the ranks of this vocation, ultimately the struggle for bread will assert itself and the need of educating or sup porting dependants forces him to enter vocations which offer more lu crative employment." Tribute is paid to the activities of teachers in Red Cross and United War Work, and to their sacrifices as nurses in the influenza epidemic!- The physicians returning from the war will have better conceptions of what should be done regarding phys ical education in the schools, says the superintendent in reference tqt the fact that examinations of recruits "revealed an unexpected number of physical defects in the population between 18 and 35." The defects that can he cured should receive more careful attention says he, re garding medical inspection in the schools, adding "more drastic legis lation to provide the appropriate remedies is needed." Attendance at high schools last year, in spite of high wages was not much affected and the superintend ent predicts that the schools will be taxed beyond their capacity with return of peace, while he holds that education is "an essential industry" and that steps must be taken now to assimilate foreigners who will come here when the war is closed. He closes with a plea for adherence to standards and against "the adop tion of short cuts in preparation for complete living." Dr. Schaeffor says concerning losses in his branch of the govern ment: "The Department of Public Instruction suffered two serious losses during the last school year. The first occurred last March, in the death of A. D. Glenn, who had been connected with the department for a period of thirty-one years, since 1906 as Deputy Superintendent of Public Instruction. The vacancy was filled by the promotion of Rob ert M. McNeal from the responsible position of Financial Clerk. He in turn died suddenly in August while conducting an examination for teachers' certificates at the State College. The vacancy thus made a second time was filled by the pro motion of 0 D. Koch, who had for seven years been winning golden opinions in the capacity of High School Inspector." # HA-RJUSBURO TELEGKAPS 9 ORGANIZATIONS WILL MEET HERE Unusual Gatherings of People Interested in Agriculture For Inaugural Week From all indi- ItS I " iere w '" *> o an I unusual gather- allied brancehs > here at the same time.

As the inauguration is to be held during the week the attendance is expected to far surpass all former records. State Defense Bourd Meets—Pre liminary plans for the continuance in a modified form of the Anterican | ization work of the Pennsylvania Commission on Safety and. Defense, were made at a meeting of the body in the Governor's office in the Cap itol. The great importance -of this work was emphasized by the fact that there are approximately one million persons in Pennsylvania who are unable to speak the English lan guage. It was pointed out by mem bers of the commission that it is possible under the Pennsylvania School Code for school boards to carry on this work and that it will be the duty of the committee to en courage and aid in the work. After January 1 all of the branches of the Pennsylvania Public Safety Commit tee other than the Food and Labor Administration will be discontinued on the recommendation of L. S. Sad ler, executive secretary of the com mittee. The scope of their activity | will be greatly curtailed now that | the war is over. The great demand for food overseas makes it necessary that the food administration be con tinued and such a condition has been created by the release of many men from war industries and the return of soldiers that the labor board will be a necessity. All county public safety committees other than those located in Philadelphia, Allegheny, Lackawanna and Erie counties, will also be discontinued. Acute labor problems existing in these several counties make it necessary that the county committees located there re main in existence for the present. The 16,000-odd volunteer police created by Governor Brumbaugh throughout most of the counties of Pennsylvania during the war will be continued in officp until the peace treaty is actually signed, it was an nounced. They will be transferred within a short time by executive order to the direction of leorge F. Lumb, acting superintend ent of State Police. ArinOry Board. Plans —The State Armory Bohrd yesterday accepted tentative plans for the completion of stato armories at Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Reading and Tyrone. The work will be started as soon as the architects can make slight changes in the present plans. State to Itc.suiiio Work—The Stato Board of Public Grounds and Build ings yesterday decided to resume the state's building, program, held up by the war, in all parts of the com monwealth. This will give work to hundreds of returning soldiers and will be an example for those who contemplate similar work of a pri vate nature. Bids were asked for bridges at Laceysvllle and Penn's Creek, and for a home for the superintendent of the Union City state fish hatchery. Improve ments were ordered In the ladles' re ception room at the Capitol, which is badly in need of repairs. Miss Violet Oakley, the artist, reported that she had finished the liutt- two paintings for the Supreme Court chamber and It was announced that Architect Brunner, in charge of tho Capito.l extensions, has taken up with Miss Oakley the matter of preserving the present lighting of the chamber, so as not to spoil the effect of the paint ings.

The capture was 1 made yesterday noon at 817 South 1 \Third street, by Chief Grove, to- , gether with Officers Behrnan, Kag- Janlc and Constable Gibb. The gang consisted of three negroes and two i colored women, Henry Hammil and , his wife, Delia, Edward and Irene Shields and Charles Williams. When 1 the house was entered, Charles Wil- i liams was not to be found, but was later rounded up and arrested by : Officer Beliman. Tho gang had in its possession, two heavy revolvers of 38 caliber and several handfuls of cartridges. Mike Budnic, who wus heldup and robbed last Friday at Second and Hoffer streets, identified the men, as did also George Hill, who was held up Saturday night on the Ben ton Road near Adahi Glad's dairy. The gang is suspected of at least six other cases in Steelton, and it is • thought operated also in Harris burg. Close to a thousand dollars has thus far been realized by the gang in their operation here. Upon being questioned the gang claimed Philadelphia as their home, and stated that they were here only for a very short time. Since their arrival in Steelton, none of the men have been employed at any work other than robberies. They were last night committed to jail without bail by Alderman Stees. Charles E.

The Nobel committee has resolved not to award a Nobel peace prize in 1918. The Farmer Receives More Than Five Thousand Dollars a Minute From Swift & Company This amount is paid to the farmer for live stock; by Swift & Company alone, during the trading hours of every business day. All this money is paid to the farmer through the open market in competition with large and small packers, ship pers, speculators and dealers. The farmed, feeder, or shipper receives every cent of this money ($300,000 an hour, nearly $2,000,000 a day, $11,500,000 a week) in cash, on the spot, as soon as the stock he has just sold is weighed up. Some of the money paid to the farmer during a single day comes back to the company in a month from sale of products; much does not come back for sixty or nicety days or more. But the a*xt day Swift & Company, to meet the demands made by its customers, must pay out another $2,000,000 or so, and at the present high price levels keeps over $250,000,000 continuously tied up in goods on the way to market and in bills owed to the company. This gives an idea of the.volume of the Swift & Company busi ness, and the requirements of financing it. Only by doing a large business can this company turn live stock into meat and by-products ' at the lowest possible cost, prevent waste, operate refrigerator cars, distribute to retailers in all parts of the country—and be recompensed with a profit of only a fraction of a cent a pound—a profit too small to have any noticeable effect on the price of meat or live stock.
