These tests over a period of years show this: If a student, tak ing a spelling test over the material to be covered for the ensuing semes ter, gets a grade of 88 per cent or better, without previously having studied that material, then the stu dent is wasting time on hum-drum repetition of spelling lessons and Is better off reading a good book. This, sometimes called the "incidental" method, has proved eminently satis factory, according to Svipt. E. H. Hed rlck. Such tests have already been given this year and 49 students have passed with a grade of better than 88 per cent. These pupils 1 will be exempt) irom spelling classes for this semes ter and will be allowed to devote that time to reading the book of their own choice In the library. Tetsts In previous years show that students capable of learning by this method will be better spellers by the end of the semester and will not slip back ward in relation to the other stu dents.

It Is further held that Hanscom bore no malice towards Tlngleaf, that they were "close friends." and that the charge against him should have been manslaughter Instead of second degree murder," snd that Hanscom anxious to make atonement pleaded guilty, without due legal considera tion. Ernest Dahack. of Eagle Point, who circulated the petition, and C. A. Hanscom. father of the defendant, make affidavit that Hanscom bore a good reputation for lnduatrlousness, and Is now needed to operate the farm of hU father who la suffering from an eye affliction. Hanscom In a statement 'affixed to the petition rovlews his life, denies he used any weapon or club, upon Tlng leaf, and' promises If granted clem ency to bo a law-abiding citizen. Hanscom sets forth that the fatal altercation occurred over a trivial matter, and that he bore no Ill-will towards Tlngleaf. now or at the time. He recites that the fight occurred over the conduct of a woman known to bolh, t' which Hanscom objected.
