-ABflMlJTIflIJi CJ DRjTlSllldAM Foreign Lcsns Second Only by Credit cf Issuing: Government Wffl Meet With little Favor. "CHICAGO, Sept. 9.li Is expected that leading Chicago . banks shortly will be sounded jja. the .interest ypl -a New York promotional .private banking house seeking to distribute here a part of Its subscription to the proposed : British war loan. So far as can belearned, any foreign loan secured by . good American .bonds, and stocks trill receive consideration from local institutions. N - . In such case the value of the collateral would be readily ascertainable and In addition to safety of investment the Banks would have something of a senfimental interest in taking back our wares when offered In exchange for cash or credit. - "Let Mftrgin Dt it," View. . . But it is believed than any foreign loan secured only by the credit of the Issuing government will not be generally favored, by the banks as Such, various considerations shaping .their attitude. It is pointed out that Morgan ft Co. and the firm's banking associates have been immense gainers through the necessities of foreign governments and have retained the gains among themselves. The New York .banks controlled by them have been filled wifh deposits; have charged large commissions, have received high interest rates, and have distributed , orders to indigent companies after some interest had first purchased the stocks of the companies favored, " In all probability tSOO.Oflu.OfoO '"of jioG.OOO.OOO has to date found its way to this country, and been lodged with

certain New York Institutions.' In the .language of .the street, it is asked why should not, therefore, the Morgan concern disgorge in the form of credit to foreign governments a modicum of the profits from them ' with which it is overdlstended. Think U. 8 May Need Money, there is anther phase bl 'thi situation taken into consideration by local bands, and that is the possibility of the United States itself finiifag it necessary to raise half billion- dollars. In that event the banks of Chicago and the west would be free to aid more effectively Our own government by distributing among their patrons United States bonds. A little consideration should suggest that freedom on the part of the western banks from the

handling of purely foreign credits would make them more useful in (he interest of the .United -States government shodld the latter need to float a loan of Its owtt. And by this the banks do not mean to suggest that Individual 'Investments lit ,the proposed British .loan will not prove Satisfactory to the purchaser

BY FRANK Q. PICKELL. Last spring the school board voted unanimously to have the high school organised the coming year on a supervised study basis. ; Certain representative high schools of the country had tried the plan and la every case It was a success, and there were certain fundamental arguments in favor - of the plan. ' These were considered of sufficient weight to warrant the adoption of the plan in the .Richmond high school. If

the results I measure up to expecta

tions the Immediate returns will be a saving in dollars! and cents to the public, and, what is of infinite greater Importance, fewer, boys and girls will fail in their studies and consequently fewer will, drop out of school. Purposes of Change. Briefly stated, the following f undamental . arguments may be advanced in support of supervised study. It furnishes an Opportunity to teach

the student how. to study. '

" It places schoql work where It ought to be, under the direction -of the person Utted.to direct it. ..... ' The studying, .will be done in the place particularly . , ntted . for t the class room. : . ,. .. 1 :- It places, the pupil under the teachers' Influence for an hour or more instead of only : 40 minutes.. .'.! -The greater part of all school work can be done during the school .day. . ' The pupil wHl gain time. At present much time is wasted In study be

cause the pupil frequently studies un

der conditions that are unfavorable.! He frequently does not know how to

approach his -work. - - - - -

- It avoids - fatigue that domes from too much night study. - v It reduces the amount of eye strain, r It Insures some preparation by every pupiL ... - 'Makes teaching more effective and less discouraging because there are fewer failures and better lessons. The evening belongs to the home. The plan recognizes the value of a rythmlo life a time for work, a time for play and a time for sleep and rest The' plan makes the pupil the most important factor in education. Details of Plan. - 'Briefly stated, the plan is this: . The usual AO minute ; class period- which formerly was given over entirely to recitation purposes with the requirement that the pupil prepare his lesson-outside of . class, either at home, or at a vacant period In the school day has been lengthened to 65 minutes with 30 minutes' for formal recitation and 35 minutes for study under the supervision of the class room teacher. ;. ; -C. . ':-lr.x ' During this 35 minute period, the student will be preparing his lesson for the following day, under the direc-j ttori of the teacher' who Will' hear the recitation. For ' example, the boy or girl who takes Algebra will -recite for 30- minutes and then; before leaving the room and while the principles' are I still fresh in mind, will spend 35 min

utes in studying his algebra lesson for the following.' - Undoubtedly the plan will be an excellent thing for our. boys and .girls, for whose best welfare it is our first business to offer our serious efforts.

Members of the county council today indicated that they were willing to act on any suggestion that the county commissioners made regarding3 the Main street bridge tangle. ..They pointed out that the council cannot originate legislation, but had only power to act on matters that are referred to it by the county commissioners. The " county council is waiting for the next step by the commissioners. Had that body presented a definite program, either asking money for repairs or an appropriation for a new bridge, the council would have been compelled to have gone on record. Until the commissioners solve the problem, the council cannot act, explained its president today. C Members of . the council said . they believed the commissioners ought at once inspect bridges ,of various types and after forming a -conclusion as: to the type and kind of bridge best suited for the Whitewater gully.take imme-. diate sep to relieve the situation... This throws the matter of delay on the shoulders of the commissioners

and puts the issue squarely before the

board, members of the council, explained. ;-;,.:,. ' -

Mayor Hopbine today explained why he considered i an ordinance passed in 1870, providing- ways - and means for the Impeachment of elective officers, had to be complied with before council could .conduct a Judicial inquiry in

to, the conduct of an appointive offi cer. Here is what he said:

v'Uniess 'council' complies with the

porvielons -of -the 1870 ordinance,

which sneclfles that no Judicial lnves

tigation can be made of charges pre

ferred against- any city officer until a written charge has been filed by some

member of council, or until some clt

lzen has, under oath, entered charges,

council would not have the right to compel the attendance of witnesses

before it. Up to the present time no

councilman has entered a written

charge against Dr. Clem, nor has any

citizen filed charges against Dr. Clem

with council." . . What He Ignored.

In. offering ' this . explanation !tla yr

RODblns ignored the fact that any legislative body- can- resolve itself into a

Judicial body for the purpose of con

ducting investigations' upon the adoption of a resolution. In the event of any effort aimed at the impeachment of an elective city officer it is undoubtedly true that council's procedure would have to be in compliance

with the provisions of the 1870 ordinance. City Attorney Bond, recognising that nothing could prevent council from

conducting a Judicial inquiry, into the

Clem charges if it desired to take such action; advised at the first meeting of the commission Mayor Bobbins appointed to hear these charges that the

commission appeal to council to conduct the inquiry in such a manner. The mayor, however, rejected this plan. No reply was made today by Mayor Robblns when he asked if the interpretation he had placed upon the 1870 ordinance in his message to council was not to the effect that he had no authority to remove any appointive officer without council's consents "Do ' you believe that the charges preferred against Dr. Clem are sufficiently grave for council to conduct a' judicial inquiry," he was asked. - The mayor replied that he believed the charges were worth being consid

ered providing the charges were preferred in council under . the provisions of the 1870 ordinance.

Leaders -of the , anti-administration

faction in : Richmond assert - that the supporters of President Kelly are now

opposed to the pending amendment, because two of4he three trustees elected by the alumni association last

June are avowed supporter of Frof. Russell and are Interested In having him recalled to the Eartham faculty.

The election of these alumni truateea la rendered null and void in the event

School Children! Can't Afford fflaMicaps In a remarkable test, recently made under the supervision of the State Board of Health of Minnesota, over 9000 school children were questioned as to what they ate for breakfast. . V :'r". ' ' :

A large percentage of the breakfasts consisted of coffee, bread and butter; coffee and oatmeal or some other cereal; coffee and hot cakes; coffee and biscuits; coffee and coffee cake, or coffee alone. Probably the same conditions prevail everywhere throughout the country. - -' "IS IT ANY WONDER," SAYS THE EXAMINING PHYSICIAN, "THAT 23 PER CENT OF THESE CHILDREN HAVE FREQUENT HEADACHES ?" He was thinking of the chief cause coffee. And it IS no wonder when we consider that coffee contains the powerful drug, caffeine, a nerve poison and notorious cause of headache, heart trouble, sleeplessness, irritation, and other ills! Parents often wonder why their children are sickly, dull and backward in school, when frequently the cause lies in the homely, accepted habit of giving them a beverage containing an insidious poison. . When scientists and Boards of Health -everywhere are speaking out against thedietic dangers to which children have been so long subjected, it is' high time that parents take heed and correct these conditions. No child should be permitted to use coffee. It is easy to furnish them instead the pleasant, pure food-drink

Made from wheat, roasted with a bit of wholesome molasses, Postum contains the goodness of the grain and is a most delicious beverage, economical, convenient and free from coffee drugs or any other harmful substance.
