Since Supt. the s Holmes took charge of hools of New Britain the school pepulation has increased seventy-five per cent. During his administration the new Prevocational and Vocational High schools were built. The new Smalley school was built and addi- tions have been made at the Rock- well, Monroe, Lincoln, East Osgood and Smith school buildings.

The fact that the ‘“‘educational rap Leup” is not now so large reflects great credit on the city and those heving the educational stem in charge. The advantage offered in the school system, is, of course, a big factor in accounting for the presence of children in school for longer periods. At this time there is a measure under consideration in England to compel attendance at school until the age of 18 years. While approving the idea of keeping children in school as long as possibie Supt. Holmes is not prepared to say he would favor com- pulory school attendance up to the age of 18, Ile points out that the onactment of such a law in this coun- try would involve conslderable diffi- culty in the enforcement, One of the great faults of those in district land for The school the height | of ordinary wainscoting are painted a | ‘the | ~charge of educational | past has the policy of living | within the letter of the law as r sards education Now the idea is changing, partly as a reslit of the The necessity of a more liberal in the matter of education be- coming more apparent daily.

CUTICURA HEALS ITCHING “When I got up one morning my face felt terribly itchy so I started to scratch, and the next morning my face was covered with pimples. The pim- ples were hard and large, and were very soreand red. They itched and burned so that I could not sleep at all. My face was altogether disfigured and the pimples lasted three months. “I tried everything I could think of and the eruption was so bad I had to stay at home from work. A friend told me to write for a free sample of Cuti- cura Soap and Ointment. I did, and my face started to improve. I bought more, and I used two boxes of Cuti- cura Ointment and four cakes of Cuti- cura Soapwhen Iwas healed.”” (Signed) Samuel Pollins, 168 Lippitt St., Prov- idence, R.

A bill fcr the purpose, introduced by Rep- resentative Slayden, of Texas, has the unanimous backing of the immigra- tion committee, and Speaker Clark agreed to give recognition today for a motion to suspend the rules and let the bill up for immediate pas- ze. The aliens now face the peril of being killed in battle or of being shot if captured. If they are discharged and take off their uniforms over there and some rmenth: terward try to come back into this country they are liable to be barred on the ground that they may become public charges. Chair- man Burnett, of the immigration committee, believes that the immi- gration law barriers should be let down in these cases in the interest of national appreciation of patriot- ism. When the war began there were aliens lawfully residing in the United flates, many of them from Polish territory under the political control of German Austria and Russis as well as Czecho-Slovaks, also subjects to the Austro-Hungarian or German governments. Some of them had de- clared their intentions to become American citizens while others had not, although possibly meaning ul- tirrately to become so. Many Poles, Czecho-Slovaks and Slavs went to Europe in 1914 and joined the forces of Serbia, Britain or France, {o fight the government that they regarded as the oppressors of their people. Formed Into Armies armies have been formed out of these brave and pa- triotic people who abandoned com- fort and security in the United States and other countries, to go back to Burope to fight nst their ancient enemies, now become ours”, the com- mittee report says. “¥France has offi- cially recognized one such or tion. The Czecho-Slovak Army has been made a part of the military forces under the French high com- mand, although autonomous and operating under its own flag. Jews, Armenians and Sy n residing in the United States before April 6, 1917, when America went into war, are “Important among the people who will be benefit- LIKE THE THIRD LIBERTY LOAN HOFEMANN'S VICTORY BREAD WENT OVER THE TOP We are now using our new formula for “Aunt Delia’s Victory Bread” and as one lady expressed it, “It makes you forget that you are eating war bread, so fine it is.” You surely owe it to yourself to try a loaf of! “Aunt Delia’s Victory Bread” today. sells it. Your grocer HOFFMANN SBAKERY 62 West Main St. Two Stores, 95 Arch St. ed by this resolution.” Aliens here before the States declared war on the Central Powers and who heretofore have been conscripted for service with the United States Army or who have vol- unteered, or who may hereafter go into that army voluntarily or by draft may be readmitted to the United States, under the resolution, if they apply for readmission within one year after the close of the war. This class of aliens will be permitted to return notwithstanding they have not de- clared their purpose to become citi- zens. The resolution also authorizes the return to the United States, within one year after the end of the war, of residing here prior to April 6, who had declared their citizen- ship intentions and who have enlisted for military service with any one of the co-belligerents of the United States in the present war, or with the Czecho-Slovak, Polish or other inde- pendent forces attached to the United States Army, or to that of any one of the co-belligerents of the TUnited States after being honorably dis- charged or furloughed abroad by proper military authority. In brief, the resolution only pro- poses to give these aliens the status and rights they had as lawful resi- dents of the United States prior to April 8, 1917 but, in recognition of United thefr service in a tause in which Americans are engaged, it propos waive the immigrant head tax would otherwise be collected they return. The immigration mittee reported it as “an act of J tice to people whose services are W uable and who by associating the selves with us, or with the alll powers in Europe, incur unuj peril.” IN MERCHANT MARINE, Boston, May 6.—Among those respond to the call of the nation men to man the new ships of American Merchant Marine and | aid to rush food ‘and supplies to boys “over there,” as well as o and munitions to the aid of our lies, were Walter J.
