4 COL. GROOME IS BEING URGED AS SAFETYDIRECTOR Chief of State Police Wanted to Reorganize Phila ( delphia Force Philadelphia, Oct. I(4,—Coincident with the news that Colonel John C, Groome is on hie way back to the United £&ates from foreign serv ice and will land here to-day or to-morrow, it became known yester day that a strong effort is being made to get Congressman Moore to agree to appoint nlm as Director of Public Bafety uiailer the ne^_admin istration. During the laitt few days a group of prominent l?hlladelplilans held a private meeting and were of the opinion that he was the best man available for the position. Their princlpaL argument was that Colonel Groome Is exactly the type pf man needed to reorganise the demoralized polk* force of Phila delphia. They saJkl his name would be a guarantee to the policemen and to the citizens theet politics had been removed from the force and only efficiency would count hereafter. They salt! there Is no man whose nppolntnsent would emphasize this condition more strikingly. The imtn who held the meeting did not pgfltend to know whether C6lonel Groome would accept the directorship If It were offered to him. He Is still Superintendent of the State PcSlce, and has been ab sent on lonvte during his military work abroad. It is believetd, however, that now that tho State has been or ganized to the joint where it is the recognized model for such a force nil over the country, Colonel Groome would, as a Pit iladelphlan, answer the new call Dor a badly needed service in his home city. His sponsors say he would reor ganize the polloe of Philadelphia ex actly ns he built up tho State police, of which he bsis been In charge since it was created by the Legislature aa the State constabulary. Colonel Groome has been out of Pennsylvania for several years. Shortly after the United States en tered the war he went to Washing ton and offered his service, leaving the State polico under the charge of Captain George F. Lumb, deputy su perintendent.

I TUESDAY EVENING, AMERICANISM IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS STRONGLY URGED County Institute Told World Looks to America to Lead in Education The second day of the Teachers' Institute of Dauphtn county began with the meeting this morning in Fahnestock Hall at 9 o'clock. After the reading of the Berlptures and prayer by the He*. J. C. Pease, the institute sang several hymns under the leadership of John T. Watklus, of Boranton. The speaker of this morning was Dr. George H. iietts, of Northwest, ern University, Evanston, 111, Dr. Betts' subject was "Education Finding Itself," and his expressions on this topic were warmly received by the four hundred teuohers gath ered to henr him. Ho began with tlm statement that through the trails of war, America had become less boastful and was more inclined to self-examination. All this iwould tend to building up tho educational Bystetn of the country. Educational Renaissance So much Is heard of the era of reconstruction at this timo, said Dr. Betts, that people rather lose sight of the renaissance of education which is a phase of the reconstruc tion in this country. The present renaissance so far exceeds the one of several centuries ago that they cannot be classed under the same name. England and France are reorgan izing and rebuilding their educa tional systems, looking to America for help and guidance, and attempt ing to bring their schools up to the standard set by this country. Speak ing of the bill before Congress to promote Federal education, Dr. Betts spoke enthusiastically of the idea, and expressed the hope in ad dition that the Congress would soon see fit to add a cabinet member In the interests of education. Health and hygiene to be taught from the first grade until gradua tion was another side of reconstruc tion of education which Is neces sary. This and the teaching of 100 per cent. Americanism In the schools are the fundamental foundations of the school systems of our country. Sectional Meetings The remainder of the morning was given over to section meetings in the Zlon Lutheran Church. Grades from 7 to 12 were addressed by Dr. Betts, who spoke on the "Definiteness of Aim in Teaching," and Dr. George A. Mirlck, of Har vard, on "Instruction." Both Dr. Betts and Dr. Mlrick urged system and more system in school work. In order that greater efficiency might result. Haphazard methods of teach ing must go, and the sooner the better. The grades from 1 to 6 were ad dressed by Dr. Mlrick, and Miss Re becca Steele, of the Scarborough School, who spoke on the "Project Method." Later the rural schools were instructed on "Drawing in Rural Schools," by Paul Beck, State Supervisor of Music and Drawing, and Miss Steele on the "Grouping of Classes." Both these speakers are experts and presented some very good material for the teachers from the rural districts. This afternoon the Fahnestock Hall program was continued with an address by Dr. Mirlck, at 1:45. The section meetings were held, begin ning at 2:30 and addressed by Dr. Betts, Miss Steele and Mr. Beck on "The Teacher and His Method," "Tho Relation of Phonics to Read ing" and "Music in Rural Schools." Yesterday afternoon Dr. C. R. Phillips, of Harrisburg, delivered a lecture before the institute on "Con tagious Diseases In the School and Means of Combatting Them." He emphasized the importance of vac- i cination and innoculation. Dr. 1 Louise Taylor delivered a lecture on "First Aid" which was received with great enthusiasm. Special emphasis was laid on the important role that the teaching of first aid is destined to play in educa tional reform, and in the humaniz ing of education by establishing a safe proportion between traditional and vocational education. Dr. Tay lor stated that giving a place to first aid in the school curriculum may not only save a life but will surely en noble and enrich lives. This is the broad view taken by the Red Cross in their work and the one they are so anxious to impress upon the edu cators of the Nation.

The right of requisitioning was terminated and the military authorities ■ also lost jurisdiction over certain crimes and misdemeanors, no longer having the right to search private property. Lifting the state of siege and re storing municipal regulations to the police will permit restaurants and cafes in Paris to remain open dntll one o'clock in the morning, but there seems to be some doubt wheth er this practice would be profitable. Parlslens have during more than five years acquired the habit of re tiring early and waiters are quite satisfied to have them continue this practice, as the night life of Paris does not yield the same revenue that It did before the war. Moreover, tho eight-hour law complicates the situation by requiring restaurants and cafes to engage additional help. Only on the boulevards, where es tablishments are supported by for eigners, do proprietors incline to In sist upon keeping open until late at night.
