Three Hundred Write Letters Urging That Montgomery be Retained.
(CONTINTKh FROM I'Ar.i: )NL')
The News-Times informant declined to permit her nam- to le used. She ttated that !hp thought more of her own jot than she 1 11 of Mr. Montgomery's notwithstanding I he injustice she believed va beinx done him. The denial jfiven out by Mr. livers follows: ,'We, the undersigned teachers in the urammar school, certify that Mr. P.vers never said nor In any way intimated that we would lose our Johs if we took a hand In the light either for or PKainst Mr. Montgomery." This statement hears the names f Belle Kennedy, Katharine Kinerk, Minnie. M. Suchanek, Mahel C. I)rllinper. Grace S. Wilcox. Maude He.uh. Llda I. Holland. Anne Carlson. R. Verna Wise. M.

At a meeting of the Press club resolutions asking tiiat Mayor Keller require hi appointees n the school t)oard. William Clem and F. I. Hupel. whn voted against Mr. Montgomery, to give their reasons for such action were adopted. Following1 are the resolutions: The IUlutlons. Whereas: The summary removal of Hupt. I. J. Montgomery from the position of .superintendent of the public schools ha.s caused widespread disapproval amon the citizens of South Rend, and "Whereas: The action of L. R. Hupel and William Clem as the majority members of the board who votP'd to dismiss the superintendent lias not been sufl'ciently explained to convince the public that the dismissal was warranted, and Whereas: The South Hend Press (dub believes taxpayers and patrons of the public schools have a right to know the specific causes for said dismissal, be it therefore Resolved: That this club ask Mayor Fred W. Keller that he require said II. 15. Rupel and said William Clem to submit to him in detail their real reasons for failing to rei.ew the contract with Supt. Montiroinedy and that said reasons be presented to the South Fend Press club
or to any body of representative South Rind citizens or. if 'deemed ndvlsatde for the best interests of all concerned, that said reasons be published in the newspapers of .outh Rend; and he it further I lesolved: Th.it, a copy of these resolutions he presented to the major and that he be urged to Rive the same immediate attention. T11K SOITTH 1?FNI PRFSrf CLl'H. No definite action had been taken last night by the business men. Iei ay in taking action, however, is not due to disinterestedness, according to those who are backing the superintendent, but merely to the fact that there is a, desire to avoid beinvc too hasty." A general committee of .".0 or 7 7 men is being named and from this number there will be selected the few who may represent the business interests of the city in a co nference with the city's chief executive. That opposition to the action of Messrs William Clem and F. P.
Hupel. members of the board of education. In surreptitiously refusing to renew Supt. Montgomery's contract, is being smothered out in the grammar rchool in a more strenuous manner than has been employed in the grade schools, became known last night. It is reported that Prin. John A. Hyers has given teachers under him to understand that any action on their part working for the retention of Supt. Montgomery will be "looked upon with decided disfavor" presumably whn it comes to renewing their contracts. Prin. Hyers. t is ascried. is particularly interested, for some reason, in having Supt. Montgomery eliminated from the school system. Whether Fred L. Sims, high school principal, hi-.- been exert ising such influence, has not, as e. leaked out. A certain shrinking of principals and teachers in the grade schds from a continuation of their former activities in Supt. Montgomery's behalf has also noticeably developed in certain quarters. The forces in opposition o Mr. Montgomery are ...id to be Itaving no stones unturn-
, i d to drive dissention among the!
teachers wtth resrard to the action f the board uihIt cover. Threats that there will be lot of vacancies for new teachers In South Hend next year appear to be making certain present teachers cautions. The right of an American school ma'am to have an opinion of her own. and to act according to it. is seemingly beirc lut down by adherents of the
Kupel-Clem autocracy as sedition not treason.

It is not always the biggest robberies that are the bohlest, at least such is the opinion of a farmer living south of the city who had a week's supply of groceries lifted from his wagon while driving along S. Michigan st., recently. The farmer was looking straight ahead when the thief slipped up behind the wagon and grabhing the groceries started directly west. He ran around the house occupied by A. M. Klrkley, 282 5 S. Michigan St., and thence hit the Vandalia tracks. He was seen in his departure and the farmer gave chase. He entered Mr. Kirkley's home and for a time insisted that Mr. Klrkley was the
guilty party but after a time convinced of the folly of charges. The two men then took up pursuit and managed to track

SAVED BY HIS RECORD
Charges of misbranding drugs were fileo against three drug concerns in city court Thursday afternoon by a representative of the f-tate food and drug department, the specific alleKation beinp that the concerns have been sellin? actylsalicylatlc tablets, which are asperin except in name, as asperin tablets. The American Drug Co., on N. Main st.. the Landon Drug Co., Michigan st., and the Martin IC Wettick Drug Co.. on F. Jefferson blvd., are the defendants. For several days it has been known that the state authorities were planning, upon placing some local druggist. under arrest in relation to the sale of so-called asperin. Hert V. Cohn, connected with the state food and drug department, ha.s been in the city for several days and Wednesday swore out the warrants before Hros. C. H. Montgomery for the arrest of the three drug concerns. As far as can be learned the state officials assert that .the local druggists have been selling a substitute for asperin. Authorities state that the sale and manufacture of asper
in, a German product, is patented and controlled by one concern in this country. Hecause of the war and the extraordinary epidemic and colds and grip over the country' during the past few months there has been a shortage of the supply under that name. The authorities sta! that a substitute for asperin has been compounded and has been sold by the three local drug stores under the name of asperin, a copyrighted name. Under the state law the representatives of the food and drug department are authorized to enter any drug store and take away for examination samples of any products on sale. According to the three druggists charged with the offense the state authorities have never asked for samples of their asperin supply openly. They assorted Wednesday that as far as they know the product they are selling ns asperin Is really asperin and that jthere is no foundation for the charges. They are confident that they will win the case against the state. It is understood that the drutrirists believe that they are heing made victims of political and competitive malice on the part of the holder of the American rights to the German patent and that the state foc-d and drug department is being used as a tool to that end.

Plans for the celebration of Paby
i week in South Rend will be discussed at a meeting to be held under the auspices of the board of health in the council chambers at the city hall Friday night at 7:30 o'clock. Dr. Charles S. Husenbury, secretary of the board, has invited all those interested in the movement for better babies or improvement in general health to attend the meeting and help formulate the program for the celebration. National Paby week which is being supported by the children's bureau at Washington, I). C, has been set for March 4 to 11, but it is expected that South Pend's Paby week will be held later, probably in June. Weather conditions in this section of the country in March are not believed to be fitting for the affair according to those who are behind the local movement. Under the present plans there will be a general observance of Baby week throughout the entire city, in the homes, stores, civic end social organizations and in the schools and other similar institutions. There will be special days set apart and merchants are plann'ng to take the opportunity of putting forth their products pertaining to child welfare. It Is expected that one of the feature of Paby week will be a baby contest in which prizes will bo awarded. Much interest in tho movement has been shown over the city and those behind the project anticipate a successful affair.
During Paby week it is intended that all clubs and other organizations shall devote their programs to baly welfare and addresses and readings will be prepared upon tho subject. Paby week will lie similar to Disease Prevention day, except that it will be on a larger scale. There will be a number of talks at the meeting Friday night, the speakers explaining the purposes of Paby week and some of tho tentative plans. Nothing definite has been done thus far but the sentiment at the Friday night meeting will rule consequent plans.
International News Service: CHICAGO. Feb. 17. Medical men of Chicago were startled again today by Dr. Harry J. Haiselden, who announced that he would perform an operation that would prevent a woman under his care becoming a mother. He told the Chicago Medical society of the intended operation and some of the medical men cheered. Dr. Haiselden is the physician who gained nation-wide notice recently by permitting a malformed baby to die in th'.1 German-American hospital when a simple operation would have saved its life. His latest public digression from the beaten path of medical ethics was explained by the doctor thus:
I have under mv care a woman
of 2 0 years, who has a baby six months old. Another is expected in five months. The woman's husband t - 1 ... mmm .
li, subnormal mentally. itie woman's mother has been In an insane asylum. An uncle of her husband is a mormon." "I intend t perform an operation. A possible defense is that as the law is enforced in Chicago, such an operation is r.ot a crime unless the woman dies. This may be my last speech before the Chicago Medical society."

'nany is increasing her air tleet at th rate of 30 aeroplanes a week. The new high powered Fokker machines are now being used almost exclusively on the western front, the majority of the old type aircraft being sent to the east front. To Turkey, to the Dalkans and the Russian front. Upon the occasion of his recent visit to Xish the German emperor made a present of 25 aeroplanes to the Bulgarian army.
