TRUANCY CLOSELY RELATED WITH FEEFLE-MINDEDNESS Albany Delegates Told School Super- intendents in Scssion at Detroit. Detroit, Mich, Feb. 24—The depart- ment of Supérintendents of the Nation- al Education Association in annual convention today decided upon Kan- sas City, Mo., for its 1917 convention and elected as its president John D. Shoop, city superintendent of schools of Chicago. The various other edu- cational associations which are affili- ated with the department and which have met, or are meeting here, this week, will also gather at Kansas City. Round table meetings of six div sions of the superintendence depart- ment was the principal business, out side of the election, disposed of today. These meetings covered a wide range of subjects but compulsory education and child welfare seemed to be the more widely discussed. C. Edward Jones, superintendent of schools of Albany, N. Y., declared that a considerable per cent. of truants from schools have, according to re- search records, been fourd to be feeble minded. Juvenile court cases have vielded a_slmilar percentage, he said, and he added that mental tests of truant children in Albany, proved that nine per cent. were utterly imbecile. Delinquency, truancy and feeble- mindedness are closely related” said Mr. Jones. “The superintendent of schools must consider the feeble-mind- ed. not as a nevil of which he is free by placement in special classes, but as an individual for whom he must pro- vide in school; whom he must recog- nize and prepare for life with the same sincerity as he meets his grades, his high school or vocational classes. M. Jones recommended ‘the use of a truant school, such as Albany has, to solve the problem, Truants and other delinquents are sént/té this school for fifty days. Thos¢ whose knowledge shaws Improvemiént are given another chance in the regular grade schools but those who dp Mot respond to in- dividual attention are kept in the tru- ant school fob’ fifty days more. If they fail to show favorable results aft- er a third period of fifty days they are committed to an institution for incor- rigibles, he said. Much interest was shown today in programme and enter- tainment for the annual convention of the National Educational Association and its affiliated organizations at New Yorik next July. It was announced that President Wilson, will, if possible, ad- s the educators on July 4. It was said that an attempt is being “to, have more or less ex-pres- speak on the same day. Pres. David B. Johnson of Rockhill, ident 8. C., estimated that 40,000 nersons will attend the conventions. Three “school master-governors” were leading speakers at a meeting tonieht. The executives, Frank B. Willis, of Ohip; Martin G. Brumbaugh, of Pennsylvania and Woodbridge N. Ferris, of Michigan told numerous in- cidents connected with their journeys from the counfry school house to the executive office. The closing session of organizations which have not completed their busi- ness will be held tomorrow, Damascus in Syria is the oldest of all existing cities.

In the chapel service at Brown uni- versity Monday there will be a special distribution of the Hicks prize books to the holders of James Manning and Francis Wayland Homer scholarships for 1914-15, and to several holders of those scholarships in the last few years to whom prize books have not been given. The James Manning and Francis Wayland scholarships are awarded without stipend to the highest schol- ars in each class. As a special mark of honor, however, the university pre- sents each scholar a prize book con- taining his name and a statement of the honor he has won. Among those to receive books this year is Earl Frank- lin Wood, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. F. Wood, of Academy street. The books are printed in limited edi- tions by the university and are abso- lutely unobtainable by anyone except the holders of the scholarships. The booics to be distributed this year are extra-illustrated copies of Professor PBronson's History of Brown Universi- ty. A series of eleven photogravures of historical and present interest have been prepared and inserted in these copies of the history. Mr. Wood is one of fifteen who are to receive the scholarship books. SOMETHING NEW: A MOTORBOB. Borough Folk Startled by Appearance of Odd Sort of Flyer. A gray, ghost-like something with the speed of the wind flashed through the business section Thursday morn- ing and was the cause of the greatest rubbering party the old town has as- sembled in a considerable lengthy pe- riod. There wasn't much time to look the pesky thing over, ’cause ’twas traveling some, but those who got a fleeting look at it reckoned it wasn't a 4D, nor yet any of the other common or garden variety of motor-driven ve- hicles, yet it was possessed of a mo. tor. The thing slid along on its tummy, as it were, and tore off a 30-mile clip without making any fuss at all. Eventually the young men who were guiding it brought the thing back up town and stopped it out in front of the town hitching post, where the local public service commission (unofficial) had the opportunity of looking it over. After a few “I swans!” “Can you beat | its?" etc, and some discussion as to whether it would or it wouldn't (it having already proved that it would), the Grand High Mojinks of the inspec- tion party asked the youths in charge what kind of a beat or bumper they were in charge of. Henry Burnett and Harold Gordon, conceivers, constructors, developers and drivers of the rare bird of pas- sage, described their charge as a mo- torbob. Now if you know what a motor is and knew as a_boy what a bob is, all you have to do is to imagine the two rigged up together you have a men- tal conception of a motorbob. If you can imagine any such unusual combi- nation, take a motor trade paper and look up pictures of this hybrid and get the idea at once. The motorbob scheme is some idea. Mr. Burnett and Mr. Gordon have worked it out successfully and are having a high jinks of a time with their new speed king. They took a pair of ordinary coasting sleds, built a heavy frame upon them, the rear sled hung on a bearing so as to give it fuller play, and in the open space between the stringers inserted the frame, rear wheel, motor and control apparatus of a well known make of motoreycle, all ‘securely fastened in place. Then they rigged up an in- genious steering device, poured some gasoline into the tank on the motor- cycle frame, tuned her up and let her go. he went some. On a tryout run be- tween Danielson and Dayville the bob tore off speed at the rate of 45 miles an hour over the smooth surfaced. hard packed snow. Then the forward sled began to do unusual things and the speed was reduced, sake. If the beb would hold the ground, the power available would flash it along at a mile a minute clip. Thirty an hour is pie for the rig. Thursday the bob was run up to Putnam and to other places hereabouts and everywhere created a sensation..A few manufacturers have developed quite classy motorbobs, but the Bur- nett-Gordon product was the first of the species ever seen in this part of the world. Owning a motorcycle, difficult nor expensive to produce a bob. Throwing in their labor gratis, the machine in question cost its pro- for safety’s it is neither ducers just 95 cents, this sum for lumber and other small items. FARE CHARGE ACCEPTED. No Perceptible ,Opposition to New Copper or Zone System Thursday. The conductors on the local division of the Shore Line Electric railway had their active service introduction to the new copper or zone fare system Thurs- day. On the whole the new scheme worked out well and there is every reason to believe that within a few days it will be working as smoothly as the old system. Thursday did not find the conductors as deft in handling their cash receipt books as they will be after a few days of steady practice, but they did well and there were no inconveniencing de- lays. On some heavily loaded trips the conductors were put to it to get the fares and turn out receipts in time, but they did surprisingly well in every case, all conditions considered. Press notices relative to the new fare system had prepared most of the patrons of the road for the change, but there were others who\had not he: about it, and the need of explaining was added to the other duties of the conductors. On this particular division the change has been accepted by the public with exceptionally good grace. Accounts Not Yet Transferred. Recently the Brooklyn Savings bank has been sending out to depositors who have not had their accounts in the ‘Windham County Savings bank, taken over some time since by the Brooklyn Savings bank, transferred to the ab- sorbing bank, circulars requesting that they do so. * In response to the requests many de- positors have come in and have had their accounts transferred, but there still remains a considerablp number of unclosed accounts of the bank that exists no more. Getting these accounts transferred or ‘otherwise closed is a matter that the Brooklyn bank officials ‘would be pleased to have accomplished as quickly as possible, as the handling of their business would thereby be simplified. It is also pointed out that it is to the advantage of depositors in- terested to give attention to the mat- ter. Costs Less to Ride to Williamsville. Some changes from the zone limits marked out for the new fare collection system were announced Thursday.

Change in Fare Zone Limits. As announced, the new system of collecting fares was introduced on the trolley road Thursday. On the whole it worked well, although there were a few small difficulties in using the sys- tem, as had been anticipated, but nothing that will not be overcome within a very short time. Announcement was made Thursday of a change in the zone limits inside the city limit and northward. What is called a lap-over has been arranged so that a passenger may board a car at the railroad station stop, on South Main street, opposite the City hotel, and ride for a nickel to the store at Mechanicsville, As ‘the zone sys- tem was originally laid out the railroad station stop was in one Zone and the Putnam Center stop, at Bugbee's store, in another, and the same was true of the store at Mechan- icsville, which was in_a zone begin- ning at what is as the Bousquet house. Care is being exercised by the rail- road company to make the zone ar- rangements as equitable as possible, as is demonstrated by the two over- laps now arranged for. WINTER CHAUTAUQUA Interesting Meeting of Junior Club, With Addresses and Games. County Agent Worthington C. Ken- nedy gave the children a talk at this week’s meeting of the Junior Winter Chautauqua club, the gathering held in_the assembly hall of Israel Putnam school.

The heaviest new fortifications, Gen- eral Crozier said, will be placed at the mouth of Chesapeake Bay which he described as one of the several places where “facilities for land oper- ations are so good that it is worth while to fortify them especially to prevent that operation, notwithstand- ing that they are not places where in- admissible damage can be done by the guns of a fleet.” At other points, such as Rockaway Beach, N. Y, and San Francisco, he said, 16-inch guns mounted in turrets would be added to the batteries. Of Chesapeake Bay the general added: “We have Norfolk defended at Fort Monroe, Washington very much over- defended and Baltimore defended. But they could come into Chesapeake Bay and establish a base alorf that shore, then send an army in any direction. There are few such points as that.” Charleston, S. C., and New Orleans might be damaged by long range fleet fire, he said, and 12-inch guns with high angle fire, giving them a ranze beyond any guns afloat or contem- plated for navy ships, would answer the defense purposes at such points. Atlantic City and Gloncester, Mass., similarly might be victims of ‘fleetfire, | he said, but their bombardment would | not injure the nation’s ability to con- tinue the war and it is not proposed to_ fortify them. “It would be deplorable and very un- fortunate for the citizens,” he added, “but it is impracticable to defend the whole coast against damage. “Certain points are selected for for- tification where the damage would be so complete as to affect the fighting ability of the United States. They still are rot protected against dam- age which could be done by bodies of troops landed and marched overland to one of these cities. NThe theory is that we have plenty of people and plenty of resources to take care of that condition, if we will use them. If we will not use them, there is no way to take care of it.” Hartford.—Inaugurated to do its part among the national organizations which are seeking the enrollment of ,000,000 voters to stand by the na- tional prohibition movement at all points, the Five Million club of Hart- ford will hold an open meeting this (Friday) evening. 76hildrrve'h Cry * FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA Several carloads of lumber have ar- rived at the station for the Palmer shipyard.
