Love Is An Awful Thing Featuring OWEN MOORE .. SureRelief FOR INDIGESTION LL-ANS 25¢ and’ 75¢ B BY JUDGE GAFFNEY Speaks at West End School i In a talk before about 76 members of the Parents and Teachers' assocla- tion of the ™ Lincoln street school, Judge B, ¥, Gaffney, president of the school board, praised the school com- mittee and the superintendent high- ly for the work they have done in the past and are doing at the present “The members of that committee care not for the position itself, They are performing a trust. A committee- man must have a broad experlence and incorruptible intgrity and every member of the school committee has those qualifications,” said Judge Gaff- ney. He described the various depart- ments from the kindergarten to ‘the last year in high school, explaining that the reason for the Junior High school is to bridge the gap that us- ually yawns between the. grammar Instead elementary there are now three years of Junior high school, the last one correspond- high. The goes along gradually high school without any pupil thus gap between. He explained that the building pro- gram planned could not he carried the Many peo- ple came to this town during the war. and it was necessary to put the chil- dren on half time to accommodate them. He said that the cost of build- ing is still very high. Additions to the.property of the school system were also described by Judge Gaffney. He mentioned the number of new buildings that have been erected within the past twenty years that he has been on the board. The duties of the superintendent were also pointed out, that of hiring And here Judge Gaffney said that the teachers of this city are being paid more than they are in any community of a like size that he knows. .He explained that this is to make the teachers inde- pendent so that they will not have to/] beg and apologize on their way throughi’life; The' teacher is'& leader in a community'and a gulde to the children he said. ' The work of logating new school buildings 18 another of the tasks, by no means small, that the superinten- dent Has to do. ’ Population drifts to various sections and the schools must be ereeted where they will do the most good. Jtdge Gaffney said that it is expécted that'a new school will be located either on the site of the pres- ent Lincoln'sehool or .on Shuttlé Meadow avenue in the future. He concluded his talk by saying that the cause of education must go on, that citizenship must be devel- oped, else the state will fall.

No in- dication of its contents was available from the Quay d'Orsay, but Great | Britain is believed to: have raised certain new questions as a result of the attitude the Turks have taken since the Mudania armistice con- ference, Despite these questions, an accord with Great Brituln is be- lieved In well informed circles to be assured and there seems no doubt that the projected interview between Lord Curzon, the British forelgn secretary and Premier Poincare and possibly a consulation with Premier Mussolini of Italy also, will take place Saturday In Paris. It was understood that Ismet Pasha, head of the Turkish delegation at' Lausanne who cgme to Paris from the Swiss city today, when he sces M. Poincare, will inquire as to the atti- tude of the French government, In view of the recent events at Constan- tinople. The Turks are still hoping for French support at Lausanne.

FRANCIS GRIFFIN, Announcement was made today that Franels “Dixle” Griffin, promin- ent in High school athletics and pPes- ident of the graduating class of last Jupe, and Miss Fsther Davis, one of the class's most popular girls and vice-president of her class, were mar- rled in Brooklyn, N. Y., November 4, 1921, and are now receiving con- gratulations upon the birth of a daughter at their home in New York .city. The wedding took place on the eve of a game between the local High school team and the team of the Col- umbia Preparatory school in New York last year. ‘Dixie” was running the team at quarterback and his bride, together with several young FRANCIS (DIXIE) GRIFFIN, lady friends had gone to the metrop- olls to watch the Red and Gold elev- en in action. On the night befero the game they slipped away to Brooklyn where they were wedded, Rev, Os- car Frederick Greene, assoglate pas- tor of the Church of the Holy Trin- ity, performed the céremony. Upon their return to the city Mr, and Mrs, Griffin were subjected to questioning by many friends who had heard of the marriage, but they stead- fastly denied the truth of the reports. They compléted their High school course last June being honored with the highest elective offices in the class, Griffin entered Cushing acad- emy last month, but has lert that in- stitution and is now employed in a MILLIONS FLOGK TO POLLY IN ENGLAND New Parliament Is Being lected Today London, Nov. 15 (By Assoclated Press).—The .electorate of Great Britain swarmed to the polls by the millions today in England, Scotland, Waled and Ulster to elect the fourth parliament of the reign of King George V. The polls opened at § o'clock—an hour earlier than that in some big industrial centers—and by 9 o'clock tonight the new House of Commons will have been selected. Everything Is Uncertain. No eleventh hour development has lessened the uncertainty. The few prophets who ventured forecasts tie strings to thelr predictions. It is therefore, something of a surprisa to fhe public that Prime Minister Bonar Law, in his' final speech at Glasgow yesterday, discgrded his native cau- tion and declared that he had “very considerable oonfidence” that the electors would give him a working majority today on which he can de- end. He made it clear that .he would be dissatisfled with anything less than an independent unionist majority. ” Gamblers betting on the election results in. the London Insurance mar- ket yesterday had to pay a rate which indicated that a majority of conservatives and independent union- ists over all other parties was re- garded as almost certain but the odds are 7 to 3 agalnst the expectation that conservatives would get a ma- Jjority of 80 or more. Want Big Vote Out. The morning papers today earnest- ly appeal to the electors to exercise thelr franchise, and to take nothing for granted. The anti-labor papers express considerable fear of apathy among the electorate, They are particularly concerned lest the mid- dle class of homekeeping women, whose first interests are their fam- ilies, neglect the opportunity to cast votes against Labor, At the last parllamentary elections it was estimated that only about 60 per cent of the electors went to the polls. Opponents of labor fear that unless more energy is displayed to- day, the laborites will benefit, since their organization is belieted to be very complete. IFrom the unionist newspapers goes up the earnest cry: “Whatever you do, don't vote labor.” Lloyd George Opposes Labor Lloyd George, too, is strong in his opposition to the laborite program. If an overnight message to the elc- tors he urged them, to support “can- didates who are oppdsing soclasm as laid down in the manifesto of the la- bor party.” “I am looking forward to the re- turn of men of progressive eas as a bulwark againsteaction on'the one hand and revolutiohary experimenta- llonhpn the other,” said the message of he little Welshman who only a few weeks'ago was the prime min- ister of Great Britain. The Daily Chronicle, an ardent sup- Jporter of Lloyd George, stresses the same thought in its editorials, urg- ing its readers not to vote for labor uniess such a ballot afford the only chance of defeating the die-hards. On the other hand the Asquithian Daily News pleads with the electors to vote liberal where there is. a liberal candidate. Otherwise, it would have them vote labor. The Dally News and the Westminister Gazeétte, leading champions of independent liberalism among the press of the capital, de- clare that serenity exists among the liberals, Urging the claims of Jabor, the Daily Herald tells its readers that the laborite program will insure peace, fair play, and work for all at reason- able wages and with reasonable cged.
