Frank Schewe, another autoist, was let off with a suspended sentence. He has applied for registration but due to a delay has not yet received his mark- ers. The only other case of interest be- fore Judge J. H. Kirkham today was that of Abgelo Grasse, charged with assaulting Andrew Neiker on Booth street last night.

Theoretically it is taught in { class room in the study of histor the | example, and it is taught in the exam- dnation of the lives of great patriots, iThe chief value of the teaching of pa- Fiotism comes in the practice of it. s practice is developed by employ- ent of service leagues in the schools hich give the pupil a chance to help the administration of the school Jad in spreading the community spirit service which is fostered by tho rvice:and civic leagues. } The practical service of the pupi based upon habit. If the child instructed as to what the right thing ito do is, and how he should do it he jcomes to have the ability, natural in- clination and desire to do it and serve his community and country. It has been pointed out that it would ‘be almost impossible for Americans to commit the atrocities in war that the Germang have for the simple rea- son that they have not been brought up and trained to do those things. National holidays are being ©0b- served with more care and are being treated with more importance in the schools than in former years. Pa- triotic songs are sung and poems re- cited to make the knowledge of them common. The teaching considered as a whole is highly successful and is made as practical as possible. SCOUTS TO ACT AS DISPATCH BEARERS Local Members Will Assit in Move to Combat German Propoganda In This City. Beginning with the week of Jan- | uary 20 the New Britain Boy Scouts, {in common with those all over the country, will start on a new duty of combating the German propaganda being spread broadeast by distributing official messages to be sent out by President Wilson. The Scouts are to act as government dispatch bearers in this campaign and each Scout will be called upon to get in touch with at least 15 people who will be influential in boosting the cause of America. In explaining this new Scout activ- ity, Scoutmaster Dwight Skinner ex- plains that from time ti time as offi- cial bulletins of pamphlets are sent .out from Washington by the commit- tee on Public Information the Scouts | will be entrusted with the work of de« livering them and each Scout will de- liver such pamphlets to the list ople he selects. In further explan- ation of this innovation the following letter from President Wilson to the national council of | the RBoy Scouts is printed: | “I desire to entrust the Scouts | of America with a new and important | commission, ernment dispatch bearers in carrying | to the homes of their community the | pamphlets on the war prepared by the | Committee on Public Information. | The excellent services performed by | the Boy Scouts in the past encourages | me to believe that this new task will i bo cheerfully and faithfully dis charged. “Sincerely yours, “WOODROW WILSON." oy SEVERAL SUITS BROUGHT.

These telegrams show not only that { the German government, through its | official censorship, told the papers they might not print, but like- wise what they should print. The im- portance of the despatches lies in the additional proof they offer that the German press cannot and does not re- flect the attitude of the German peo- ple. Some of the telegrams in the hands of the state department deal with American war preparations and they indicate that, despite German news- | paper statements to the contrary, the | Berlin government itselt does not un- derestimate the ability of America to accomplish things. One of the orders read: Petit Parisien informs us that five American divisions, numbering 125, 000 men, may be expected in France in the Autumn of 1917. It is ur- gently requested not . to reproduce the information without some com- ment, We do not wish to underesti- mate the ability of America to ac- | complish things, but must not, on the other hand, overestimate. In order to bring a division over from America, 75,000 tons must mako | | the trip twice. Therefore, from the | | mere fact of lack of space, the trans- : | portation of such a body of troons‘l within certain flxed time limits is ; impossible. Moreover, it is imPOFSi‘UM; to train these troops properly hy ! Autumn. These facts, which have ! recently been discussed in the German war news, cannot be too strongly em- | I} phasized in the discussion of this French news. There are repeated prohibiting all mention of certain strikes and other signs of internal | unrest, such as the following The publication and discussion of the resolution adopted in a strike meeting of the Leipsic unions and of a tele- gram sent to the Imperial Chancellor are not permissible. There sharp objections to the re- printing of the manifesto of the Inde- pendent Socialist Party in case it is adversely commented upon, even without irritating sharpness. In the interest of a victorious carry- ing through of the war, which is en- dangered by every stoppage of work, expressions of the press which recom- | { mend a strike or express themselv otherwise in favor of a strike, are { forbidden. Utterances which are directed against strikes are indeed not | subject to censorship, but it is sup- | Epnsed thereby that they are kept free from immoderate sharpness which could offer material for irritating the peopie. - Reports concerning disturbances in Konigsherg, Prussia and concerning a | warning from the commander of the [Flrsl army corps, which followed in the Konigsberg press, are not permis- sible, News about excesses and unrest Prague may not be published. Hostile discussions in the Austrian parliament, which met last spring, were to be carefully concealed as shown by the following orders: The discussions of the Austrian lower chamber may, for the present, be published only in such light as they are sent out by the official carre- spondence bureau.
