STAMPS ARE BOGUS
Collectors Gathering War Souvenirs
Hoaxed British Say.
(Associated Press Correspondence.)
LONDON. —Stamp collectors in
the United States have been badly
hoaxed in accepting as genuine the
German Kamerun stamp bearing the
overprint G. R. 1. according to a
British officer with the troops now
occupying that African colony. The
German colonial stamps are genuine. '
he says but the overprint is bogus. .

“Beautiful Resort.”
J In answer to a query of a cor-
! 1 respondent the Kansas City Star
| praised San Antonio’s climate and
I attractions is a recent edition of
I the paper. In its “Questions and
I Answers" column a request recently
was published from a Kansas wom-
an who asked about the climate alti-
tude and general conditions in San
Antonio. The paper's answer read: [
“San Antonio has an average
mean temperature of 69 and its alti-
tude is 700 feet. Its general climatic
conditions are good and it is con-
sidered one of the most beautiful
resorts in the country.”
A clipping of the comment was
exhibited by J. B. Frawley of Kan-
sas City district passenger man-
ager of the Union Pacific who is here
to spend several months. He will
remain in San Antonio until April

MODERN PUN
OF EDUCATION
ISODTLINED
Council of Mothers Hears Ad-
dresses by San Antonio
Educators.
METHODS ILLUSTRATED
Superintendent and Heads ot
Departments Tell of
Their Work.
••What is education and how shall
we educate our children?" was the
subject of discussion at the educa-
tional meeting of the San Antonio
Council of Mothers Thursday even-
ing in the tapestry room of the St.
Anthony Hotel. The mothers invited
the educators to meet with them and
discuss education and the principles
involved from the standpoint of
teacher supervisor and superintend-
ent. departmentally and as a whole.
Among the speakers were Super-
intendent Charles Meek. Mrs. Ma-
lone Duggan and Miss Gertrude Dow.
den and Miss Bessie Myers kinder-
gartners; Mrs. Lula M. Griesenbeck
supervisor of music in the public
schools; Miss Nellie Lytle super-
visor of art; Miss Emma Pirie su-
pervisor of domestic science and
home economics; and N. S. Huns-1
don supervisor of manu.nl training. 1
Broadening of Vision.
•'Education is the broadening of
the vision” said Superintendent)
Meek “it is the effort to train the
multitude to take care of them-
‘selves. The public schools should not
1 lie merely a place to train those who
। expect to go to college for the great
' majority never go to college nor do
'they expert to do so. Successful
teaching depends a great deal upon 1
j what we leave out; that is we should '
eliminate a great deal of rubbish in ।
the grades such as long and tedious
<1 rills in grammar and arithmetic
■ 1 hat are of no practical use and that
are forgotten almost before they
• are learned.”
Mr. Meek expressed his gratitude
to the voters'of San Antonio for vot-
ing the bond issue and said the re-
sult was due to the organizations
imong them the Parent-Teachers’
Association that worked for the Is-
sue.
In speaking of hianual training in
the schools. N. S. Hunsden super-
। visor of manual training said the
courses are designed to train boys in
I congenial vocations to give the me-
chanically inclined an opportunity
to develop so that the schools will
not turn out a lot of poor profes-
sional men. when it might train good
mechanics.
A quartet from the high school
trained by Miss Penelope Borden
sang a selection.
Demonstrate Musk* Work.
Mrs. Lula Griesenbeck demon-
strated the music woYk in the schools
with classes is sight reading tech-1
nical problems musical principles I
and songs.
"The object of the n\usic course" I
she said. “Is to contribute to the cul-
ture and enjoyment health intelli-
gence and happiness of the child-
ren.”
Thad Perry who had never had
music lessons outside the public
schools played two instrumental se-
lections.
Miss Bessie Myers and Miss Ger-
trude Dowden kindergarteners told
about the work in a kindergarten
how the children are stimulated by
play by song by rythm and by con-
crete representations tn an Intelli-
gent interest in the world around
them and trained in habits of obe-
dience and order self-control self-
direction industry attention con-
centration cleanliness courtesy
helpfulness and diminished self-
consciousness.
What Mothers Should Do.
Mrs. Malone Duggan in speaking
of the home pointed out the dan-
gers to mothers from a dissipation
of their energies she said work out.
side the home is good and ndbeasary
but home is the center from which
all constructive work must come.
She said mothers in doing outside
work are likely to leave the train-
ing of their children to kindergar-
tens and schools and Sunday schools
to clubs and societies.
Miss Nellie Lytle supervisor of
art in the schools said art is taught
in the schools to stimulate the
growth of the aesthetic sense in
children.
“As a department of education.”
she said “art is closely related to
every branch nf man's activities
There is not a subject with which
the course of study in drawing does
not co-relate. Furthermore art in
the schools gives children a knowl-
edge of the masterpieces of art and
teavhes them to appreciate the beau-
tiful in life.”
Miss Emma Pirie supervisor of
domestic science called attention to
♦he fact that wise economy is one of
the principal teachings of domestic
science.
Tca<*h Home .Management.
’The values of foods the cost and
economic handling home sanitation
and hygiene are among the princi-
ples Involved” she said. “The ques-
Hon of food clothing and shelter is
’he all absorbing topic among the’
masses and we try to teach correct
management in even the humblest
homes.”
The textile of materials is taught
in connection with practical sewing
There is also a class In th© care of
the child. This teaching is carried
into the lowest grades by means nf
the game of dolls. The children learn
to wash and dres B and feed the baby
hv a delightful play but at the same
time gain much valuable knowledge

THE SAX ANTONIO LIGHT
WHY “ANURIC" IS AN
INSURANCE AGAINST
SUDDEN DEATH
Before un Insurance Company will
take a risk on your life the examin-
ing physician will test the urine and
report whether you are a good risk.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
[(log you suffer from backache sick-
I headache dizzy spells or the twinges
land pains of lumbago rheumatism
and gout. The urine is often cloudy
full of sediment; channels often get
sore and sleep is disturbed two or
three times a night. This is the time
you should consult some physician
of wide experience— such as Dr.
Pierce of the Invalids’ Hotel and
Surgical Institute Buffalo N. V.
Send him 10 cents for sample pack-
age of his new discovery “Anuric.”
Write him your symptoms and send
a sample of urine for test. Experi-
ence has taught Dr. Pierce that
"Anuric" is the most powerful agent
In dissolving uric acid as hot water
melts sugar; besides being absolute-
ly harmless it is endowed with other
properties for it preserves the kid- 1
noys in a healthy condition by thor ‘
oughly cleansing them. Being so
many times more active than lithla. I
It clears the heart valves of any l
sandy substances which may clog J
them and checks the degeneration of*
the blood vessels as well as regulat- !
ing blood pressure. "Anuric” is a!
regular insurance and life saver for |
all big meat eaters and those who.
deposit lime-salts in their joints. Ask '
the druggist for "Anuric” put up by I
Dr. Pierce in 50 cent packages.
Dawson Texas.—" For the benefits
of others 1 gladly give this state-
ment regarding the merits of Dr.
Pierce’s Anuric Tablets. Am nearly
76 years of age. I suffered from
backache weak back rheumatism
and could not control the excretion
of the kidneys. I can safely say that
‘Anuric’ the new discovery of Dr.
Pierce Buffalo N. Y. has done me
more real god than anything I have
ever taken for these ailments.”

MUST PAVE AROUND
THE SUNSET DEPOT
This Will Be Required as Part
of Consideration for
New Franchise.
After conferences with Commis-
sioner Kearny. Mayor Brown has
decided to require that the G. H. &
S. A. railroad as part -of the con-
sideration for its new franchise for a
track down Walnut street be re-
quired to pave around the Sunset
depot. This proviskm is to be added
to the other one under which the
city will retfulre the construction of
a 30-inch storm sewer dowi) the
east side of the railroad righf-^f-
way along Walnut street from Com-
merce to Florida street.
"It is absolutely essential if we are
to keep that end of Commerce street
clean" said Mayor Brown "that the
open spaces about the Southern Pa-
cific depot now used for vehicles
be paved. Incidentally so far as we
can discover these spaces now used
as streets and driveways never have
been deeded to the city and thus
if paved the entire cost would of
necessity tali on the railroad com-
pany. But even if they had been
deeded the cost w«ould still fall on
the company for in laying out the
depot the company reserved a strip
across the way just west of the de-
pot. I presume this was done to pre-
vent the erection of unsightly
shacks.”
The kind of paving that will bo
required is still a matter for consid-
eration. but Mayor Brown said it
probably would be left to the com-
pany subject to the approval of the
commissioners. As the driveways
however are subject to heavy traffic
the company probably will select
either brick or wood blocks.
