Rev. ‘Albert H. Lucas, former assis- | tant headmaster at the Episcopal Acad- | emy in Overbrook, Philadelphia. is the | new headmaster, who succeeds William | Howell Church, head of the school for | 14 years, who resigned last Spring. The career of Rev. Mr. Lucas is one of par- ticular appeal to boys, since he saw | active service in the World War prior ; to becoming a minister. His first duty | was that of athletic director of the' Philadelphia Navy Yard during five | months of 1917, after which he enlisted | as a private in the Marine Corps, 1n| which' he served for 14 months. 1 Following the.war, Mr. Lucas studied | for holy orders. Graduated from the Berkley Divinity School in 1920, he subsequently was ordained deacon and priest by the Right Rev. Philip M. Rhinelander, former Bishop of Penn sylvania and now warden of the Col. lege of Preachers at the Washington Cathedral. Rev. Mr. Lucas became chaplain of the Episcopal Academy in Overbrook in 1921 and in 1923 he was made assistant headmaster in charge of the lower school of that institution. It is from that position that he comes to St. Albans as headmaster. New Building Is Three-Story. The new lower schgol building, which will be occupied for the first time with the opening of the 1929-1930 school rs, is a three-story structure con- ing six classrooms, master's living quarters, an office, conference rooms and & manual training room. The third floor provides a large indoor playroom which will be used for kymru.sf:lm pur- poses until the new gymnasium, in- cluded in the future plans of the school, can be built. Besides the induction of a new head- n]n;ter, St. Albans’ faculty changes in- clude: In carrying out her expressed wish, the ‘Wwill succeed Carl Hartzell in the French department, and C. W. O'Connor will take the work in English and Latin formerly handled by A. T. Knapton. In the lower school—George D. Hard- men will have charge of the section presided over last year by Richard B. Greenman, and Edward E. Smith will succeed Harrison P. Magruder. The history of St. Aloans School is the fiory of a mother's love for her sons Who died in their youth. A be- quest to found the school was made to the Cathedral Foundation by Mrs, Har- riet Lane Johnston, niece of President Buchanan, in 1904, in memory of her sons, James Buchanan Johnston and Henry Elliott Johnston., During Pres- “]d:h‘;: wBuchl-n':él's administration Mrs. ston ac as mistress of the White House. Her Wishes Carried Out. In ‘carrying out her expressed wish, Right Rev. Henry Yates Satterlee, the first Bishop of Washington, sent a com- mittee to visit the leading schools for boys, both in this cpuntry and in Eng- land, for the pu: of studying their buildings, equipment and administra- tion. The specifications for the orig- ! inal building of St. Albans were based on this committee's research. The main building of the school, known as the Lane-Johnston Building, in memory of the founder, is the result. Its corner stone was laid by the Right Rev. William Paret, then Bishop of Mary- land. on Ascension day, 1905. The bullding was dedicated by Bishop Sat- terlee on Ascension day, May 9, 1907, That day also was the anniversary of Mrs. Harriet Lane Johnston's birth. The school formally was opened by the Right Rev. Alfred Harding, second Bishop of Washington, October 7, 1909. Since that time huudreds of boys who have been graduated from its halis have achieved success in college work and civilian life. 8t. Albans today has an enrollment of nearly 170 boys, whlie its faculty numbers 16. To meet the special needs of its younger students, those from 9 to 12, St. Albans has inaugurated the horizontal method of teaching; that is, the boys haté the same teacher in the majority of their studies. 8t. Albans School is an integral part of the Protestant Eniscopal Cathedral Foundation of the District of Columbia and is administered by the Cathedral Chapter as a board of trustees, of which the Bishop of Washington is president. His associates on the board of trustees are: Very Rev. G. Bratenahl, dean of the cathedral William L. De Vries, canon and c! lorjof the cathedral; Right Rev. James De Wolf Perry, Bishop of Rhode Island; Right Rev. Philip Mercer Rhine- lander, warden of the College of Preachers at Washington Cathedral; Rev. Robert Johnston, rector of St. John's Church’ here; Charles C. Glover, Fs shown by salaries, the ex pupils, because the schools were to con: The board members will have at hand a collection of the laws under which the public school system of the District of Columbia is required to be operated which will be sufficiently com- prehensive in scope, annotation and index, accompanied by legal construc- tion of the statutes, to enable the board miume quickly moot questions as they arise. the presiding officer of each branch of Congress has at his elbow | an eminent g:rhlmennnnn to explain precedents, similarly but with more am- plitude the forthcoming collection of data is fitted to serve the board, school officers and the employes generally. First Volume Under One Cover. ‘The volume, moreover, will be the first publication to combine under one cover the laws that relate to the public schools. In the past sundry problcias under consideration by the bard would evoke frequent inquiry, “What is the law on the subject?” "The information | would be forthcoming, but had to be | sought and found in various published fundamental laws, In appropriation acts, in decisions of the controller, in opinions of the corporation counsel cr in decisions of various courts. To meet this situation, about three years ago, under the presidency of E. C. Graham, a committee was named and authorized to collect the laws and have them print- ed and available. Such committee con- sisted of Dr. Charles F. Carusi, Dr. F. W. Ballou and the secretary of ihe board, Harry O. Hine. The major part of this extensive work was assumed by the secretary, most of it outside of day- light hours, and accomplished in addi- tion to his regular secretarial and ad- ministrative duties. ‘The work will consist of some 350 laws grouped in 35 chapters. It will include also a summary of about & hun« dred decisions of the controller of the ‘Treasury and his successor, the con- troller general of the United States, and a summary of opinions of the cor- poration counsel or of an officie] of co- ordinate rank. The salient features of important cases in various courts that -Fply to schools will likewise 'have a place, The compilation dates back to the origin of the public school system in 1804, at a time when Washingicn as a city was still in its swaddling clothes and extends to the enactments of 1929, a stretch of a century and a quarter. Much of the earlier legisiation, while no longer in force, is nevertheless val- uable for the historical background of the evolution of the school system through its past sources of revenue, method of taxation, separate boards of, trustees, the development of the system’) nsion of he official and teaching staff, and the like. ‘Traces School Revenues. Revenues for school purposes were originally a matter of gifts from pub- lic-minded citizens. Foremost among such was the outstanding patron of education, Thomas Jefferson, whose contribution was $200 while he President of the United States and at the same time first president of the newly created board school trustees. An act of Congress at this period author- ized Ylld agents to serve as collectors to solicit money. early statutes show that in 1804 some $1,500 was taken for schools from taxation. Revenues by were derived from a unique mixture of sources. Taxes on slaves, dogs, hotels and wine shops, billiard ta- bles, carriages of the wel t] ters, peripatetic hawkers, all ized to augment the slel funds. There was a tax o1 rdinaries,” a term then in use to designate a tabie d’hote eating house. The revenues from licensed institutions not so savory in character also were included, a prac- tice which present-day ethics would un- hesitatingly condemn, Early Methods Unsatisfactory. ‘This early method of taxation ap- parently was uncertain, for it was dis- placed by a system of lotteries. Be- ginning with 1812 and extending to 1828, 14 different resolutions authoriz- of Biblical story. Cites Legislative “Quirks.” A perusal of the compilation of school laws will show many quirks in legisla- tion. When the Washipgton citizenry had suffrage, back in 1850, an act of the joint city council set forth that no person could vote unless he had paid a school tax. Laxity in attendance at sessions of the board of school trustees was strictly dealt with, for in 1853 the absence of a trustee for three successive meetings vacated his seat The public school doors in 1866 did not swing open to any child that sought knowledge or who went in obedience to-a compulsory law. The city council rulings admitted only the children of bona fide citizens. An old statute, passed in 1873 and now obsolete, set the minimum number of pupils in any new school at 52 for one teacher. When this arbitrary number is noted one wonders whether the early city fathers did not have in mind a deck of cards when they asked of Con- gress the passage of this law. The German language found a place in the schools as early as 1869, only to be thrown out by act of Congress for the two years of war stress, in 1918-19, One Iaw well known and oft quoted by accounting officers of the schools and other District departments is the pen- alty wherein the jail doors yawn to re- ceive the person guilty of overdrawing an appropriation. The evolution of the medical inspec- tion service in the schools reads almost like a romance when successive steps are noted from the law of 1864 requiring vaccination, to the introduction of a staff of Eh icians to inspect schools and pupils, the expansion of this professional service by nurses, dental operators, and eyesight clinics. Tuition Most Important Topic. Probably no phase of school activity has been subjected to more changes than has that relating to_non-resident tuition. Originally only District chil- dren were admitted to the public schools. Beginning with 1899, outsiders were . accorded school privileges upon payment of the full cost of tuition for the grade entered. A more liberal pol- icy was followed in 1906, which admitted | P&sS children if parents pald any taxes whatsoever in the District. An incident may be cited which shows why Congress repealed the statute. School officials noticed in the data on non-resident puplls that five different Virginians rlld taxes on a single vacant District ot assessed at $50. An investigation disclosed that they held a joint owner- ship of said lot. As the tax rate was $1.50 per $100, the taxes were 75 cents, and each paid his quota, or 15 cents, for which they received tuition exemptions a"reg-unt; several hundred dollars. A law of 1912 changed this so that a tax paid by a non-resident must equal or exceed the cost of instruction to allow his children free tuition. Some apparent hardships which developed under this inelastic statute were oc- caslonally circumvented adroitly, as the following episode will {llustrate. A non- resident parent who paid $66.50 on real estate taxes into the District treas: had a son in attendance in the. higl school at a time when the = tuition charge was $68. The tax was $1.50 short of exemption and his distress was genuine. Being resourceful, this non- resident met the requirement by the payment of $2 for a tax on an ani- mal that existed only, in fiction. Law of 1915 Still in Force. By a statute passed in 1914 a tax paid to the District, in whatever sum, might be applied to the payment of tuition. A law more generous to the public outside of Washington was passed in 1915 which is still in force: “Hereafter all pupils whose parents are employed offi- cially or otherwise in the District of Columbia shall be admitted and taught free of charge in the schools of said District.” No department of the schools has been the subject of as mapy opinions by the corporation counsel as has non- resident tuition. The outsider seeks to ail_himself e of the privileges of ing lotteries for the benefit of the pub- lic schools were passed by Congress and were signed by Presidents Madison, Monroe and John Quincy Adams. In each resolution $10,000 was named. In 1813 the lottery authorizeed along with the customary $10,000 for schools a sec- ond $10,000 for a penitentiary. This money was intended not for “free” schools in the modern sense, but for indigent children, with its implied stigma on those seeking free education. In an act of October 24, 1820, the trus- tees were forbidden to receive “pay chairman of the Riggs National Bank; Charles J. Bell, chairman of the Amer- ican Security & Trust Co.; Dr. William C. Rives, Corcoran Thom, president of the American Security & Trust Co.; James Parmelee, trustee of the Carnegie Institution and Corcoran Gallery of Art; Dr. William Holland Wilmer, head of the Wilmer Eye Institute in Balti- more; former Senator George Wharton Pepper of Philadelphia, and Gen.

The Summer schedule, which closed last week, included varied our excellent school system and the generosity of the Federal Government, of which he is indirectly a part. It is interesting to observe that where innovations were made in the courses of study, before legal authorization therefor was mdae by appropriations, the merit of these newer courses had to be established in advance often by funds donated for the purpose. This was the case when manual training was intro- duced and classes opened in carpentry, sewing and cooking. It was notably true in Americanization work, which in ‘Washington ranks high among special activities. The course set up to instill American principles in aliens desiring to qualify for ntuaralization was origi- nally finnaced entirely, as it still is in part, by patriotic societies such as the Daughters of the American Revolution and by other influential civic grou})n. Before Ix?ruprllflnm were made for playground equipment and supervision their worth was demonstrated through funds raised by a city-wide collection of old newspapers and their sale to junk dealers. Laws on Intoxicants Discussed. One of the laws recently receiving attention is the act of ap- proved May 20, 1886, “to provide for the study of the nature of alcoholic drinks and narcotics and of their effects upon the human system,” applicable to the public schools of the District of Co- lumbia. It is not generally known that one of the provisions of the above stat- ute requires that candidates for teach- ing positions shall be examined as to their qualifications to teach the effects of intoxicants. The Volstead act, which in part finds a place in the school laws through its provision to permit, tax free, the use of alcohol for laboratory pur- poses, is distinctive in that it is the only statute in the collection that was sed over the President's veto on October, 1919. The first statute to accord to women a place on the board of trustees was in 1900 in a reorganization of the school system. Under the provisions of this law the sum of $10 was allowed for tendance on each meeting, not to ex- ceed 50 sessions, or $500 per member, in any fiscal year. the Board of Education has been with- out compensation. The ground covered in this book is sufficiently inclusive to react helpfully on the rank and file of the school em- ployes. With a copy in each school building. they can ascertain their of cial rights, as wel as their duties. .By & more general knowledge of the funda- mental school laws, by being conversant with the procedure on the estimates and the imbricated fiscal relationship of the schools with the District and Federal governments, the operation of the school plant, child labor problems, retirement matters and the compensa- tion act for injuries incurred in line of duty, there will be a more enlightened staff, with a consequent improvement in the school service.

But the great civic, educational and cultural value of the Community Center Department does not lie entirely in these varied activities at the many cen- , but rather in the ever-widening ‘l;:uense and help which it extends to the city in developing and sponsoring outstanding movements toward the in- tellectural, artistic and physical growth of the people here in the National ital. c‘lr:; the past few years the Community Center Department has served, in a way, as & “clearing house” for & number of interesting, partly - organized move- ments of the people in. general. The Community Institute was organized in 1927 with the co-operation of the Wash- in Society of Fine Arts and the Public Library, offering a series of cul- tural events in the general form of lec- tures, which has proved of unusual in- terest and increasing drawing power for two years, and which, this season, has announced an even mre attractive program, opening in October with the Kedroff Quartet. One of the recent signal successes of the Community Center Department was its co-operation with the many drama groups in the city in the founding of the Community Drama Guild last Win- ter, which was almost a direct result of the one-act play tournament held for two preceding years under the depart- ment’s supervision. The Community Drama Guild, under the auspices of the Communty Center Department and the Office of Public Bulldings and Parks, has planned an ambitious program of drama for the coming season which will attract keen interest among lovers of the amateur drama in the cit] PREPARE NOW hy, typewriting. speed dictation jete’ mecret: course. 38 per Civil Service Preparatory School h and F sts. n.w.
