One of Dr. FrledmaroVa earliest crlt ' les n New York, Dr, Maurice Strum, who declared hla belief that the Ger man physician had' a "quack remedy,' announoed today-that he had been fol lowing some of the easts treated by Dr. Frledmann and had now become . eonvlnoad that the progress shown in the cases treated hart made it ot the highest Importance that DrFrlsdmann be permitted further to demonstrate his treatment, v ..u,; ,-:j' ,-., ;.; "Tha five cases that earn under my observation were aU la advanoe stages, said Dr. Btrura. "Twa of the patients had tubercular knees. Two aad tuber cular elbows and the fifth had pulmo nary tuberculosis'. vv ' "I was willing to dlsoount such sub jective symptoms of improvement as In - creased aonetlta cheerfulness, lmnrovod apnearence, etc.. but when I noticed an improvement of the most important symptoms of the disease, I could not longer be skeptical. . r "The cass of the ll-ysa.r-old boy, who was treated at Mount Sinai for tuber - euiosla of the knee la the mos. remark -able far, -This boy's knee was so swollen and inflamed that ha could not bend it without excruciating pain? Four days after the Frledmann treatment was administered tha inflammation began to subside. Tha boy now walks with a scarcely perceptible limp, and I am firm ly convinced he is on tha road to com pieta recovery." In one of the other bona tuberculosis .casta bona, has already been reduced 1V inches in diameter, Dr. Sturm said, and there was a similar reduction in the swelling f tha elbows of the other two patients.. Tha progress of the pulmon ary patient, while less marked, haa been steady toward a lessening of tubercular symptoms, he said. Dr. A. C. H. Frledmann. tha scientist's brother, said tonight that he had re ceived a telegram notifying htm of the action of the Texas assembly request ing Dr. Frledmann to come to that state end demonstrate his treatment.. ,,, i .

X Mackensle, professor of pathology in tha University of Toronto, today. ."Any doubt of his absolute alnoerity was re moved within a few hours after his ar rival here. Any physician who talked with him realised at once that he is an authority upon the treatment of tuberculosis, and his II years of re search was evident in everything ha aid and did. If Dr. Frledmann has not discovered a cure for tuberculosis; I don't know who in the world can be expected to do so.1. As to the critloisme printed in news papers of the doctor'a technique in the operating room. Professor Mackensle declared them ridiculous. Dr. .Harold C.

Pupil; in Preference to the Subject Portland's1 First Public School Was Opened In 1851 De velopment of 62 Years Has Wrought Bemarkable Changes in Educational Methods. ' By F. L. Portland's first public school opened its doors on December IS, llfil. John T. Outhouse was the teacher. Sander's reader. Bullion a grammar, Thompson s arithmetlo and Goodrich's geography were the books studied. There were only 20 pupils which waa accounted for by tha fact that there was much, oppo sition to the opening of a public school. Those who had no children thought it unjust that they should have to pay for the education of the children of ethers. The Idea of a public school was also op posed by the private schools. in the ran or t&arouowing year, uos, Miss A. M. Clark, who afterwards be came Mrs. Byron P. Cardwell, .was hired as an assistant to teach the primary grades. The citlzena met and voted $1600 to carry on tha school for a year. The first school in Portland was a pri vate school which was started In the fall of 1847 and it was taught by Dr. Ralph 'Wilcox in a building owned by Job McNemee at tne toot or xayior atraet -The following soring Miss Julia Carter opened ar school In a log cabin on . the corner of Second and Stark streets which aha taught for three months. During the winter of 1848 and the spring- of 1848 A. J. Hyde taught school In the cooper shop on First street between Morrison and Yamhill. Horace Lyman waa the next teacher, He taucht for a short time during 1S49. In April 1150 Cyrus A. Reed taught for three montbe. la the fall of 1160 Deloa Jefferson taught one term and he waa succeeded by Rev. Doana, a Methodist mlniater who taught for the unusual length of time ot nine months. The prl vats achoola usually charged f 10 a uar. ter for each atudent Vlth the opening of the public school there waa less oc caelon for tha private schools and so tbey langulaneo. Site Fuxehaaed fot f 1000. In 18 B 5 the school board, oonaiatlng of Messrs. Frailer, Ladd and Norrla, advertised for a teacher to take charge of the publla schools of Portland. A young taryer who bad met no success In bis chosen -profession and waa on tola way home to New York eaw the adver tisement, applied for the position and was accepted. His name waa Sylvester Pennoyer. Tho following year It waa decided that Portland should have school budding and so the block where the Hotel Portland now atands was purchased for flOOO and a school bouse waa erected in which sWool waa opened on the seventeenth of May, 1868.

' Sundays Is More Popular Than Ever JBOWERS, Manager ' " - . GAINER THIGPEN, Asst. Manager their bindf ul of pupils to the school system of today Is a long step. Recently I visited the school at Lenta Professor A. 8. Hershner, the princi pal, showed ma over 4he building, "Today's methods are eertaialy a won derful improvement on those of ths past," said Professor Hershner. ut, nevertheless, there Is room for lih provement in our methods." Pointing to his desk he said. 'There is a trap nest made by a little boy n years old. Aa the hen enters, her weight trips this spring and she cannot get out until re leased, thus enabling a parson to keep a record of the number of egg laid by each hen.' Here is a report from a lit tle firl from Persia. Bhe brought to the school a Persian . rug upon which she has been working for a long time, at home. There ar 100 stitches to the square inch and the design is very beautiful. We give the students -credit for home work of this kind, not of course to apply on deficiencies in their regular studies but all of these credit marks help- their work. This school house la wonderfully well planned for the eafety snd convenience of the chil dren and teachere. Hera for example, Is the lunch room for the teachers where they can gather at noon and compare notes wheU they are at their luncheon. You see, we have electrio heatera so that they can warm their aoup or make tea and thus bar a warm lunoh, There are eight exits and broad and ample halls so thsra la no possibility in ease of fir of any panlo or, loss of lift among the children. I will sound the fire alarm and yon ean aee for yourself bow quick ly tha building wlU be emptied." There was a low hum of voices throughout tho building of children reciting, that sounded like tha subdued murmur of bees on a summer day. He aounded tha alarm and instantly, all over the build ing, there waa sound of marching. From each of the doors came several boys who went to the various stations and unreeled tha hose. From another room a little drummer boy emerged and Bounding tha march, tha children began pouring out of the eight exits in double rows. The building waa empty in 67 seconds. At another signal, the chil dren reformed and marched back and resumed their studies. The whole thing had taken poaalbly three or four min utes and showed perfect discipline and order. Going to tha girls' basement, he sum moned several little girls. One little girl about It or II years old, catching one of the rings swung from ring to ring clear across the basement and back again as actively as a squirrel Thls,1 said the principal, "is ths chute the chutes and each recess and noon It la in very active operation. In tha old days -children -were punished for wig gling and whispering in school.' The whole theory was wrong for young chil dren like all other young animals, are full of vitality and animal life and it la cruel and unneceasary to repress them when they become restless. We find that a few minutes spent on the ladder or the rings or any other active form of exercises will use up the surplus vi tality and the children will come back to their rooms perfectly willing to alt quiet and atudy. There are a good many thinjs that children should learn In school aside from their lessons and one ot them is order and respect for the rights of others and fair play. In oth.jr words, what we are building in , Ui.lfi4 Preee tiw4 Wlro.l London, March 15.-The Balkan, alt uatlon bung fire tonight In every di rection and tha week' ended without the and of the Turkish war being defi nitely sighted. -' Contrary- ,to predlcton of the allies, AdrlanouU and ficutar lwve- not fallen and ' late ; advices " from Conatantl- i nople told of the complete repulse by the Turks of another onslaught, with great loss to the Bulgarians. . , Powers' Representatives Meet. Tha ambassadors met this afternoon at the foreign office at tha request of Sir Edward Qrey, to dlscuis the reply of the, alliea to the powers' offer, of mediation, but nong definite was de cided upon. Borne of Vtlie ambassadors openly ex pressed disapproval ', of the allies' de mands which they termed extravagant. Tha diplomats, however, did not con cede that the reply closed tho door to mediation. Tha powers; next move will be to dispatch another note to the al lies, setting forth their Ideas of a more feasible peace arrangement Tha ambassadors adjourned after two hours to meet again Wednesday after noon. Late today tha besiegers began an other fierce bombardment ot Scutari. Tha freah assault waa undertaken after a conference between King Nicholas of Montenegro, Prince Csyo and General Popovltch, tha Servian commander. -J school is character and hence we try to keep this school abaolutely clean and im press tha children with the necessity of order and cleanliness. Here, for ex ample, are our bubbling fountains. Aa Bnolosed Playground. Here Is our enclosed playground. This is ons of the flrat playgrounda under cover built In Portland and we find it a wonderful help in winter time to have a place where the children can take active exercise." Going out to tile manual training department we saw a group of a acore or more boys making desks and tables, bookrscks and other articles of use as well as beauty. I asked one of the boys: "Do you like this better than your studies?" He said, "I suppose I shouldn't, but I do." - , l'rofereor Hershner said: "There is no reaaon why you shouldn't like this better. - It is a part of the school work and glvee you mental discipline and trains yotlr hsnd as well as your brain and I am very glad that you enjoy it. The old days of constant punishment and repreaslon are about gone. We atlll crowd each child into the same mold and make him conform to the same yard stick and train him for achool and not for life. The large proportion of them do not go beyond the grammar grades and yet all of the atudlea are carried on with a view of their entering the higher grades' and continuing their studies. Eventually wa will realise that some thing should bs done for the children who are to quit when tbey have passed through the grammar grades. We will also realise that each child has an in dividuality of hla own which must be considered.'' Earl WHkini Probably little Earl Wllklns, 7 years old, doesn't realise whet truly big thing hs did yesterday, whan ha apont his last lonely little nickel to buy flow ers for his sick mother. A nickel would have bought a lot of things dear to the hearts of lads ilka Earl. Tha ahop windows always show tempting arrays of all-day suckers and Jawbreakers that usually causa a sep aration between youngsters and their nickels. A fellow can get a lot of pea nuts or popcorn, too, for a whole five cent place, but Earl proved hlmaelf of the stuff that real big men are made of- his thoughts were of his mother. 80 Earl clutched hla nickel in a grimy, chubby feet, and held on to it, past all the candy stores and the pea nut wagons, until he reached a Fourth atreet flower ahop. Then ha bargained for "five cents' worth of flowers," daf fodils in particular, and be it said to ths credit of the florist that he gave little Earl mighty good measure, Happy, with tha happiness that eomeg of unselfish love and loyalty, the ur chin allowed hlmaelf to be detained long enough to have his picture taken, and then went merrily on his way. Earl didn't have time to give his mother's name or to tell where b lives, but anyway his little act of devotion must have been written en a certain good book where all such things are re corded for time and eternity.
