PUPILS DRAFT CODEOF PLAY Children Draw Up Own Set of Rules. Pupils at George W. Julian School, No. 57, at 5435 East Washington street, were worried. Their teachers gave them the privilege of drawing up rules for the school, and they had succeeded in every department except in that most important one, the playground. Since they couldn’t make up the rules themselves, they did a little research to find what rules children have made for themselves in schools of other cities. They finally found suitable rules, though they don’t remember where. Here are the rules: To share in the play of others is to make .better persons of ourselves, because — We learn to work in terms, and that is good for our unselfishness. We learn to take defeat, and that is good for our courage. We learn to obey the rules of the game, and that is good for our selfcontrol. We learn to play fair, and that is good for our honesty. DESIGN TO BE CHOSEN Shortridge‘Students Will Vote on Drawings for ‘Echo.’ Pupils of Shortridge high school will vote Thursday morning to decide which of nineteen designs they deem most appropriate for the cover of the Christmas issue of the Shortridge Echo.

VETERAN RECALLS LUSITANIA SINKING

’ 1 ~ --S, „ - - 7-

Edward G. Schaub (inset) and the U. S. S. Huron on which he served two years during the World war.

E. G. Schaub was member of Crew Until Shortly Before Disaster. Observance today of Armistice day recalls vividly to Edward G. Schaub. 668 East Eleventh street, memories of the sinking of the Lusitania. Schaub, former Veterans of Foreign Wars state commander, cherishes among his war trophies a lifeboat badge he carried as a member of the crew of the Lusitania shortly before the giant British liner was sunk May 7, 1915, off the coast of Ireland, by a German U-boat. A total of 1,154 lives were lost in the disaster, of which 102 were Americans, and it was this act and the refusal of the imperial German government to disavow it that eventually brought the United States into the World war. At the age of 19, Schaub, who had spent several months at sea, shipped on the Lusitania from Liverpool in the spring of 1915 as a member of the engineering force. He made one round trip on the vessel through the danger zone and on the next trip was forced to leave the ship in New York because of an injury. The Lusitania made another round trip and a half before it was torpedoed. “The U-boat peril was so great,” Schaub said, “that on the first trip I made on the Lusitania it was necessary to draft firemen and even then we were 167 firemen short.” After the United States entered the war, Schaub enlisted in the navy, because of his previous experience at sea, and served throughout the war on the U. S. S. New York and the U. S. S. Huron, making fourteen trips across the Atlantic on the Huron, an interned German ship, formerly the Friederich der Grosse. Pastor Resigns GREENCASTLE.

AID FOP. PUPILS COST $42,190 IN CITY LAST YEAR 7,000 School Children in 3,800 Homes Helped by Social Service. Cost of giving relief during the 1930-31 school year, to 3.800 families in which there were more than 7,000 school children was $42,000. according to the annual statistical report of W. A. Hacker, assistant superintendent to schools in charge of social service, issued this week. Visits were made by the departmnet to the homes of 14,047 children as compared with 5,105 in the 1920-21 school year. Average number of children seen by each visitor was 878. In 1920-21, the average was 567. The 5B grade led all other elementary classes in number of pupils visited—6l7. Next was the 3B grade in which 600 pupils were visited. Home Life Reflected Number of grade school pupils visited was 7,209, while 5,495 high school pupils were seen. In the unclassified group. 1,280 children were visited. In speaking of the duties of the department’s workers, the report comments that “children can not make the expected progress in school when the home life has broken down. “It therefore becomes the very definite duty of the field worker to do the thing for the family which will make it possible for the child to have his chance.” Saves Teachers’ Time Field workers, the report states, make every possible attempt “to help the less fortunate help themselves out of difficulty in order that they not become dependent or neglectful of their own responsibilities.” The report *x>ints out that if the social service department were not to investigate living conditions of the very poor, it would be necessary for teachers to take time from their instruction to do so in order that they might understand why certain pupils are behind in their school work or are absent often from school.
