B. SCHLEISNER, 28 30 32 N. Third St. 1 STEELT.ONI AMEND DOG ORDINANCE Man Is to Arrest Owner or tnregis tered Canines; Petition to Annex Steel ton Park Tract. After several amendments were added to the dog ordinance it passed second reading at the meeting of the borough council last evening.

The amendments permit the arrest of the owner Instead of takng the dog. All persons who do not meet the requirements of the ordinance by having their dogs registered will be arrested and fined. The measure, in all probability, will become a Jaw on June J. The report of Victor Grove, who was the fire chief, was read, accepted and filed and a vote of thanks given him. The new chief wa given the floor and thanked council for its support and promised faithful service during his term.

His bond was Frederick E. Smith being his bondsman. The chairman of the town property committee stated that the statistics regarding the proposed new house for the. Hygienic Hose company were not fully completed and that a complete report would be made next meeting. H.

C. Wright and J. JM. Brlghtblll, owners of what is known as the Steel ton park tract, presented a petition asking that this tract be added to the borough. The ground lies just back of Cottage' Hill and is being developed into a residential district.

The matter was referred to the ordinance committee, which will draw up an ordinance and present it at the next meet: lng. E. C. Henderson, chairman of the highway commtitee, made a report on the proposed paving of South Front street below Highland street. He said that cold weather had retarded the work and that at the next meeting a report covering the subject would be made.

Representatives of the Amacite Paving company and a company making compressed concrete paving were given the floor and each discussed the merits of his wares. Mr. Henderson read letters from the street departments of Boston, St. Louis, New York and other large cities regarding the effectiveness of the Squegee street cleaning machine. Joseph Silver asked that council vacate a part of Mayberry alley below Highland street, as it is not suitable for driving, and he would erect properties on it, Mr.

Henderson and Mr. Lewis both objected and said that they thought it would be unwise to vacate the alley simply on this account, as some day the growth of the town may warrant the building of steps and closing the alley would make that part of town back of the alley hard of access. The curbing, paving and guttering ordinance passed second reading with amendments and it was stated that the report of the water board would be laid over until next meeting. Mr. Stees asked that an incandescent light be placed at the corner of HERE IS PROOF That the Best and Only Safe and Reliable Home Cure for Gall Stones is GALL CHOL AUVISK1J TO ISDERUO AX OPEn.VTlOlN'.

Defective; Educational Trends The general subject of medical Inspection wns most, thoroughly discussed by numerous city and borough superintendents of the State attending tho annual session of that department of the Pennsylvania Educational association In the House caucus room this morning.

In addition to an interesting lecture upon the subject by Ieonard P. Ayres. of the Uusscll Sage Foundation. New York city, City Superintendent Frederick J3. Pownes'gave some interesting on the successful medical inspection plan inaugurated by llarrisburg last year, and an interesting diversion was created by II.

O. Messirner, superintendent at Erie, who has the honor of being the first to completely outpoint Dr. Nathan C. Schaeft'er in a cross play of repartee. It was following Mr.

Ayres' lecture that Dr. Schaeft'er rose and talked upon medical inspection. "I can appreciate the truth of what has been said regarding the retardation of pupils from decay of the teeth. I remember while I was a lad that I usee) to suffer untold agonies from my teeth, and these present pupils who are suffering must have their teeth looked after or "You must be a good example of a retarded pupil," Interjected Mr. juissi mer from across the room.

Dr. Sehaefier stopped, looked helpless, made an ineffectual and feeble attempt to say something about Montgomery born children in comparison to Berks' countians, and then sat down heavily, while the assembled superintendents engaged in a hearty outburst of laughter. Harrisburg's progress along the line of medical Inspection was clear, ly shown to be second to none In the State, and the remarks of Prof. Downes demonstrating tht one tenth of the children in the public schools, have received treatment for physical disability and are Improving drew high commendatory remarks from Mr. Ayres.

After the session numerous superintendents requested Dr. Downes to send them Etatistics op medical inspection here. In addition to these remarks, Superintendent of Beading, told of the additional dental clinic lntroduc ed into the medical Inspection ot the Berks county schools, and also of the plan whereby the Reading Dental society appoint twenty flve dentists to visit the schools and examine every scholar. Superintendent Lose, 0 Williams port, and Superintendent Missimer, of Erie, also spoke briefly on medical Inspection results. That medical inspection in the schools is saving this State a considerable portion of $2,160,000 which otherwise would be wasted on to educat pupils who, by reason of removable physical defects, are unable to profit by their Instruction, is the estimate of 'iMr.

Ayres, who said in part: "Some of tne larger cities of this State, notably Philadelphia, have pretty well developed systems of medical inspection. That similar systems should be placed In operation in other portions of the State as a measure of economv I believe wiH be plainly evi dent from figures I shall present. If the children in Pennsylvania are like their companions in Massachusetts and New York, about sixty per cent, of them have seriously decayed teeth. These pupils require eight and a half vears to complete a course of study that a child without defects would complete in eight years. A child with defective breathing requires six tenths of a year longer to complete eight grades, of elementary school work.

About one school child in every seven has defective breathing. The pupil suffering from enlarged tonsils reauires seven tenths of a year Itaasec complete tho course than does the normal child, and about one quarter of the school children have enlarged tonsils, Children with de. noids spend nine and one tenth years in the eight elementary grades and those with enlarged glands nine and two tenths years. About one child in eight has adenoids and nearly one half of the pupils eufter from enlarged glands. The Trend of Education session this morning opened with an invocation by Rev.

Harry Nelson Bassler, pastor of the Second Reformed church, after which on of the most able, papers of the session was read by the president, Superintendent Grant Norris, of Braddock. The subject was "Educational trends" and the paper fully explained the trend of educational advance tt seen from the first nine years pf the twentieth century! First he compared the advance so far with the advance in pat years. "History is replete with its beacon lights, with its men who stood in advance of their times and age, with its men crying out in the wilderness to get ready to prepare ourselves, like men. In the sixteenth, century, we were bound down with formalisms, conventional rules and ceremonies until Luther with his theses on the floor of the church in Wlttenburg shook all Europe. "In the seventeenth century a strange spirit lighted up these shores.

Friendless, and fugitive, it threw Itself upon the hospitality of these lands. The history of its spirit ia but the his tory of the crimes of Europe, but here in this country it has found an abiding asylum. "In the eighteenth century another step was taken which culminated in personal responsibility and personal accountability, one of the greatest exponents of which was John Wesley. "In the nineteenth century Dwight L. Moody looms up with his message of love, stirring millions to a higher conception of life and a fuller realization of duty.

"Judging; from the progress we have made and from the present trend of affairs, the twentieth century is destined to be a century of love, sacrifice and service. "The cry today is for greater efficiency, higher standards, closer supervision, better organization, greater unison and leas waste of time and energy. Greater efficiency Jn teaching: is bound to The requirements of each and all professions are higher than that of teaching echool. The preacher must have his academic education, at least, and then a professional training in theology. The lawyer must have the equivalent of a high school education and then his training in the profession of law, and so on.

"But how is it w(th teaching school? The large majority of our teachers have but a. common school education. The profession of so far to many of us, has been but a aorry It has been made too cheap. Because a quack doctor wants to doctor my child and is in need of money is no reason why I should Intrust him with my child's life. To eave the child I must have professional service, and conditions should be such that professional service would be available even at the coat of a hundred dollars an hour.

No longer do wise parents want to intrust their children to quack teachers, to teachers unprepared, to teachers who have never spent any money on their' education save the taxea paid by parents; teachera who have never pursued a professional line of study; teachera who do not attend educational conventions aave those for which they are paid; teachera who work by the cloek and atand waiting for payday; teachers who knew little, if anything, of child life, its heart throbs and heart aches, but handle children as ao much merchandise, not even considering its breakable material." Superintendent Norris rapped the old belief in the dead language hard. "The man todav who "III intern ul ini or Greek," he said, "does it more for oueui una aispiay man to elucidate and make clear the subject at hanl Not all of us. not mnnv nf no a few of us. will ever hwnmn tramio tors of dead languages. Some, of 1 course, read the original manuscripts for the aroma which they draw from them, but while these will sit end dream, the man with his translations, mathematics and science will be ereot int bridges, tunneling mountains, buildings subways, erecting gigantic mills, covering the continent with the network of steel and counting his cattle on a thousand hills.

Ho hivhlv rnmmpnrlo.l i cede and expressed regret that it had been vetoed "The new school code was prepared at gTeat labor by representative educators and citizens of the State. We had hoped that it would become a law. It seemed comparatively easy to authorize and appoint this commission. The result of the two years of arduous work were finally placed in print and submitted to the lawmaking body and to the people. It was studied by a thousand different minds, each viewing Jt through the eyes of the local community.

Its ramifications were many and varied and thoroughly understood and appreciated by the learned commission, but it was a big morsel for many of us and it needed maetleatlng and shewing. We are still masticating it and I believe that within a very few years we shall; be able to swallow, digest and assimi late it to the bone and sinew of our educational system.
