Pittsfield, Mass., Sept. 14.—Police officials have no clew to the second story burglars who last night ran- sacked the residence of Appleton Wade on Main street and departed with several thousand dollars worth of jewels, furs valued at $500, thrift stamps and $60 in money. The jewelry stolen belonged to Mrs. Wade and to Mrs. W. F. Garrison, who is stop- ping at the Wade home. About 10 o’clock last evening while seatéd in the library, the family heard strange noises, and investigation re- vealed the robbery. Entrance was gained by forcing a bathroom window over the piazza roof. This same house was burglarized in similar manner several years ago.

War Work in Schools. “War work ia the schools assumed large proportions and was undertaken in varied forms; but to every demand the teachers and pupils successfully re- sponded with a patriotic zeal and en- thusiasm that will continue, not only farfhe duration of the war, but after the war is ended—even as it had exist- ed long before the war began—as a re- sult of that training for patriotic citi- zenship which has always been one of the conscious purposes of the schools. “The fallowing is an incomplete list of some of the many forms of service undertaken. Information service as to war needs and war purposes, food pro- duction and foad conservation, war savings and war loans, Red Cross work, Liberty chorus service, munition work in the trade school, gas mask work, training for radio operation, assistance of registration and exemption boards, instruction ia English and citizenship for foreign-horn men and women, the use of the schoal buildings for war work and patriotic gatherings. “With all of these many forms of war service which have been rendered by the schools, there has also been deflnite instruction of the children a ta the course and progress of the war and the need for unified and unselfish effort to assure a victorious issue for our arms. In this respect the schools are doing their full duty. common New School Is Opencd. “Among other notable events of the school year was the opening of the Hlihu Burritt school. The nced for increased school accommodatioas for elementary grades at the north end of the city had been pressing upon us for several vears. This new school pro-| vides relief for the Smalley and Bart- Jett schools and makes it possible, for the present vear at least, to use tho old Burritt school for special foreign classes, thus giving extra rooms for the use of the Prevocational Grammar school, and also for a day nursery and office roams for the attendance officers and of a center for Americanization work. This building is the finest school structure in the city. It is safe to say that there are few, if any, school buildings in the country\better suited in all respects aot only for the succe: ful conduct of elementary school work,_ but also for real service as a social center for the community. “In its general plan, as well as in its appointments, it sets a standard for future schaol houses to he erected in New Britain, and furnishes many im- portant and valuable suggestions as to much-needed improvements in our older school structures. This building malkes it plainly evident that no school in any district can adequately serve thae | | people of its neighborhood unless it is | provided with a branch library and an | auditorium and gymnasium of ampl | size. Tt is only reasonable to urge that | it should be a well uaderstood policy of the city to provide these, not only for all new buildings to he erected in the future, but also for all existing | «chools as soon as possible after the ! | elose of the war, | “The great possibilities of the Elihu | Burritt school for service to the pub- not only as a school, but as neighborhood are limited by the vision of the prifcipal aad teachers and the willingness of the | to provide the means for realizing | ibilitie: a a only | 1i | | | | | center, city those pos | Good Teachers Underpaid. | “1t would difficult to find a corps af able, intelli- | gent, eflicieat and devoted than that of | { tha New Britain school system | ! whole the teaching force has fully met | the demands laid upon it by the school officials and the general public.

During the vear the situa- tion with reference the salavies of the teachers point of such | seriousness, for the teachers and for the that it became im- peratively necessary far the hool comittee to consider a substantial in- crease in sala “It is no ordinary service which the teacher is called upon to render to the be ver teachers more past to reached alike schools. ! to i A GRIPPLE FOR THREE YEARS Helpless In Bed With Rheumatism Until He Took “FRUIT-A-TIVES”. MR, ALEXANDER MUNRO R.R. No. 1, Lorne, Ont. “For over three years, I was confined to bed with Rhieumatism. During that time, I had treatment from a number of doctors, and tried nearly everything I saw advertised to cure Rheumatism, without receiving any benefit. Finally, I decided to try ‘Fruit-a-tives” (or Fruit Liver Zablets). Before I had used half a box, I noticed an improvement ; the pain was not so severe, and the swelling started to go down. I continued tak uil e, dicine, improving all the time, and now I can walk about two miles and do light chores about the place’” ALEXANDER MUNRO, 50¢. a box, 6 for $2.50, trial size 25¢, At all dealers or sent on receipt of price, by FRUTT-A-TIVES Limited, QGDENSBURG, N. ¥, ——————————— and stability of our institutions rests with the teachers, and it requires no ordinary person to render this sarvice. The public can well afford, coasidered from a purely selfish standpaint apary from the question of justice, to pay the teachers and trainers of its future clti- zens such salaries as will enable them to maintain themselves in coffort and self-respect, and to provide a reasan- able protection against the needs of illness and old age. It is also the part of wisdom for the public to sa reward teaching service that the best of ability will be brought into the service and retained when once there. The action of the committee in revisiong the salary schedule has ample justification in the universal advance in the cost of living and in the general increase in wages in all other iines of service. That a deficit in the school department appropria- tion has been occasioned by the ac- tion of the committee needs no fur- ther justification that that of the statutes which charges the school committee with the responsiblity of maintaining the schools at a high standard of efficiency, since there was no other possible means which could have been employed fo assure a sup- ply of teachers for the schools. “The outlook for the future sup- ply of teachers is by no means en- couraging and unless present indica- tions are misleading, there must be a further general increase in teachers' salaries throughout the state if the supply of teachers is to be assured and the schools are to be kept open. This vear's enter- ing classes of the normal schools of the state are far below the usual size of former years, and at the present time not a few of the schools of the state are closed for lack of compe- tent teachers. These are alarming facts and their significance is such as to zive serious warning of the need of some means for protecting the interests of the schools and the safety of the state Tarlier in the year a statement of the cost a pupil of the Trade Bduca- tion department was submitted to the members of the school committee The cost per pupil of trade education is necessarily higher than that = of any other department of public school education. Smaller classes for each instructor and more expensive equip- ment and supplies account for this in large measure. The only means for reducing per capita cost in {rade edu- cation are to be found (1) in the sale of the product of the trade depart ment. and (2) in keeping the ¢ at their maximum size in each depart ment. “During the year through advertis- ing, a strong effort has been made to present to the public the advantages of the trade school with a view to at- tracting larger numvers of hoys to the different trades tausht. What the results of his effort are to be we are not vet able to determine, It is be hoped that an increased num- ber of boys may register for the pat- tern-making, and printing asses elecrical | trades. that the to the present “Tt is possible disturbed conditions incident and the unusual demands and for labor of all kinds, hoth and unskilled, will prevent large increase in the the trade:department conditions reach a after the close war re- wards ukilled iy regis- until more of the very tration in fndustrial normal level war, “The trade department in hands, it rendering service great and importance and serves cordial interest and port city i “The fers most the training Young men Under the is good of de- sup- is a value the of the h Good School's Standing.

In its nor- mal preparatory course it gives con- sideration to the needs of young wo- men who aim to enter the teaching profession. “In July of this year a bulletin was sent to the members of the com- mittee suggesting an organization for an attendance deparment. The matter is brodght to your attention at this time because of its importance and the real need for its serious consid- eration.

The finance committe reported that a city meeting will probably author- [ize the issuance of $12,000 worth of school bonds for a fund to complete the work of the Elihu Burritt school. Unpaid bills will be paid, a concrete walk and steps and retaining walls will be built and a fence will be built. M. O. Baker is to be awarded the contract for the concrete work, his bill of $4,181.60 having been the lowest. The Iron Post and Fence Co., of Hartford, will erect the fence between the school property and that which is adjacent. For the text book committee, ilbourne ad copies of E. O, ised the purchase of 60 “Tweleve Centures of Bn- glish Poetry and Prose,” and a similar number of “Three Centuries of Amer- ican Poetry and Prose.” These books will be used in the English literature ‘courses. Although T. H. Peasc orig- inally opposed the purchase of these books on the ground that it was not nperative and is too costly, since he believes the board will end the year with a financial deficit, their pur- chase was voted when Supt. Holmes assured the committee that the books are necessary.

New York, Sept. 14.—The market for securities has become more re- sponsive to important influences which so gradually have been developing in financial circles. We are at the threshold "of one of the largest financial transactions in the history of the world. A new war loan of $5,000,000,000, and perhaps more, is to be distributed in a campaign lasting but a few weeks. It is true that the total of the latest British war loan now slightly exceeds the equivalent of this specific amount. But that ac- cumulation has been the result of many months of systematic effort, the British plan of continuous offering of bonds having proven successful. Al patriotic Americans will agree that the necessity of making our own loan a full success must overshadow all other considerations. Its amount has not yet been announced officially, but it appears fair to assume that the treasury will seek the largest volume of funds that can be secured without imposing too great a strain. This will mean severe curtailment in every branch of financial enterprise. The Capital Issues Committee has served notice tha tuntil the completion of the campaign for the distribution of this huge issue of bonds it will not authorize the issue of new securities except such as it itself considers urgently necessary. In addition the crmunittee has requested tha ton and after October 1st, securities that it has heretofore authorized shall not be sold or offered for sale until the new war 1san has been placed with in- vestors. The stock exchange gover- nors have taken steps to supervise loans of members, and thus prevent the use of funds in undesirable specu- lative operations. These are features suggesting a continued strain in the money situa- tion. The main consideration at the moment is to provide an adequate supply of funds in order that the stock exchange, as a safety valve, may continue to exercise its valuable func tions and continue to keep in liquid form a large proportion of the wealth of the country. There is no reason to doubt that traesury and bankinz officials generally recognize the need of such protection and will be pre- pared to see that money supplies suffi- cient for this important purpose con- tinue available. This does not mean, however, that banking accommoda- tion will be supplied in amounts to | permit injudicious speculation. One of the main functions of the New York stock exchange is to furnish a market where securities representing our natural activities may be bought and sold, a market where lenders know they may sell collateral at the full market price and without delay in the event of their loans not being paid as agreed. It is a market place where | interests who are pressed for funds may turn securities into cash without loss. In this way the exchange occu- ples a position as a permanent regu- lator. It performs one of the most | important functions in times of stress such as those through which we are passing at the present moment. Secretary McAdoo has taken wise action in adding to the attractiveness of the Liberty bond issues which have | already been These bonds, of | whose soundn there never will be | question, are nevertheless called upon | to compete with securities much more | attractive in the form of actual in- | come return. While there has been a wonderful patriotic response to the various offerings, there at the same time will always be a disposition to purchase outside investments. All sold government bond issues thus far | marketed are specifically exempt from the normal income taxes But the first issue alone—the 3 1-2's—is complete- ly exempt from surtaxes. The second and third issues are exempt to the extent of the interest payments on a single holding of $5,000. The secre- tary now proposes to provide a maxi- mum exemption on these issues of $45,000, based on an amount one and | one-half times that of the bonds of | the Fourth Liberty Loan originally | subscribed and still owned at the time of the tax return. In addition, Mr. McAdoo proposes an exemption of the interest on a holding of $80,000 of the | new issue now about to be announced. | Of course, as the limits of exemption are widened on the other bonds the complete exemption privelege of the first become to that extent neutral- ized, a feature which was reflected by a slight decline in the quotations for the First Liberty Loan coincident with advances in the later loans. Iowever, with the prospect of a protracted con- | tinuance of heavy taxes and the grad- ual conversion of the bonds into those carrying a higher rate of interest there will without question continue a demand for the tax exempt 8 1-2 per cents. n importance attach- problem, public largely concen- bill, which of the taxation become the Revenue view ing to the attention has trated upon LIMITATION OF CLAIM of Probate holden at New Britain, within and for the dis- trict of Berlin in the caunty of Hart- ford and state of Connecticut on the 13th day of September, A.
