THE SEAFORTH `NE"WS THURSDAY, MAY 19, 1932 TEACHERS TO COOPERATE WITH SCH,OOL-BOARDS. .Secondary School Teachers Suspend Minimum Pay Rate in Effort to Assist Boards Suspension of the scale of minimum salaries for secondary shoot teachers ,laid down some ten years ago by the " Secondary School Teachers' -Federa- tion of Ontario has been.' adopted. by that body, in an effort to assist !boards Which niay encounter financial diffi- euities at thepresent time, and so that these boards :nay not find it necessary to reduce the salaries of experienced teachers in general, it was announced on 'Thursday. (In explanation, S. H. Henry, gen- eral secretary of 'the federation, said Death of Mrs. J. Hartley. niter -"During the past decade each year ex- an illness, of seven months Mrs. John cept the last' one, has been marked by Hartley, formerly \Lary Ann Weir of a small increase in the average salary 'Wroxeter, passed away suddenly on .of high school teachers.

At the •sante time, we believe in Toronto. Mts. Hartley leaves *o Loring the name of so greats man." that while some municipalities find it mourn her early death her husband, lnece .art' to, economize in every nos-. .sible way, yet the great majority of ;plates in Ontario can well afford to 'cut' many other types of expenditure :before impairing the ,present high standard of secondary education." The schedule of minimum salaries wwhich was formulated to attract into the teaching profession an adequate supply of the ablest graduates of the universities, has been as follows: •S?,000 in collegiate institutes and high schools in cities, $L700 in the same in towns and villages, $1,400 in Grade A and Grade B continuation schools. and $1,300 in Grade C continuation schools. Favor Larger Increases In the letter sent out from the exe- 'tutive of the federation to all second- ary school boards in the province, in- timating the suspeusian of the scale tetnporarily, a suggestion is made that the relatively small differeace in sal- ary between the beginner and the ex- perienced teacher sboutd be increased. in order to make the profession at- tractive to those best adapted to it. "The officers of the federation are convinced that one of the chief fac- tors causing many of the leading gra- duates of the universities to avoid teaching wbea cboo_i tg their life work, i, the .relatively small advance from the salary of tate begniener to that of the thoroughly experienced and sectessfui teacher. We suggest that , this problem is one demanding the best thought of the leaders of both trustees" and teacher; organiza- risans, in order to arrive at such e sol- ution as will be in the best interests education," the letter t., the boards reads. It points out that :the cost o;, educa- tion has been extremely rea bnab e. compared with other items of provin- cial. . civic or personal expense, "We recognize that during the present arnt. liaanciai depees .nisi sante school boards have found it very difficult to ba:a to their budget_.

Did she believe that the. ,was speaking as a messenger of what is called the spirit world beyond the SPIRITS NOT ALLOWED IN COURT The hearing'of an action of alleged libel concerning the mediumistic pow- ers of a "Mrs. Louisa Meurig Morris, has aroused considerable interest its the old country. The case lasted near- ly a fortnight. .• Sir Oliver (Lodge. who was in the witness box, said that he had had an opportunity of studying firs. Morris last autumn, and that "Power," her control. consented to give him a pri- vate talk, Sir Oliver asked ."Power" questions, and get the impression that he was in the presence sof an intelli- gence competent to give information. He ielt then that he was not in touch with Mrs. Morris at all. "There was .no question of tricks," Sir Oliver stated. "She is perfectly honest. It is'a phenomenon that must be recognized that a- person can leave the body to be manipulated by another intelligence."" He thought Mrs. Morris' was doing her medium- istic work. out of a sense of duty—us- ing her body to be so manipulated. 'air. Justice 3I'Cardie, in his sum- ming up,.said=`I feel. and you must €eel also that the truth as to ,the mat- ters in question is of `importance not only to the parties concerned, but al- so to many members of:the general public. I was glad to hear a correct sitatentent by counsel that in this case the doctrine of immortality is not. ;n question, a doctrine rejected by many people., but a doctrine which is held firmly by many millions—nor. do" I think we have to inquire at all as to whether or not many people believe in the existence di discarnate epirits. "It is to be observed from the de- fense that no attack is made on the sincerity of persons who :behieve lett Spiritualism," It was important, his Lordship said,. to remember that a number of avis- nesses had told the jury that there were many fraudulent mediums. many imposters in Spiritualism. Therefore the case was in a range o, importance beyond the immediate issue. fit wasmost important. is the int - it was and decided to go to Hopewell, and get the police. "He notified Chief !Wolf, who noti- fied these headquarters, Inspector 'Walsh df Jersey •City, ,Sersiaant. Moffat of the Newark police and Lieutenant Keaton of the New Jersey, state po- lice and a number of' other detectives' immediately went to the scene. "They 'reported, ft:1dnlg the body of .. a child estimated to be between a year and a half, and two years old. in a 'bad state of decomposition, but having blond hair, and wearing what appear -- ed to be an undershirt and a flannel band around the? body. '`Not satisined with this as identifi- cation, dentifi cation,mien were sent back into Hape-' well to the Lindbergh estate to get samples of the undershirt the baby's • wore and of the flannel' shirt- the ha- dgli by had on, the night of the kidnapping. "This flannel shirt had an ernbroid ered scallop 'edge ; on it. These articles were taken back to the scene and compared with the clothing found on - 'the body and were mat'ehed closely enough to afford an identification off the body as that of the Lindbergh ba- by. `"The statement aE William Allen and Orville Wilson says that"the. body, was pretty well concealed by leaves and dirt and brash, The skull had a 'hole in it about the size of a quarter just above the forehead. There apparently ,had been an at- tempt to bury the body face down ward. It was in a bad. state of .de-' composition. Mercer County coroner and the county physician were its- rnediately were called. The body was found about 75 yards off the road in the woods.r' ^. s12� a a;,lt= e'1 "As long as there was a possibility of the }Aber being alive, the pollee hare been acting with a certain am- ount of suppressed activity in order not to interfere with any negotiations that might result in the safe return of the baby. "Nov; that the body of the baby has been found every possible effort will be used and all men- necessary will immediately exercise every pos- sible effort to accomplish the arrest of the kidnappers and murderers. We have had under suspicion a group of persons suspected of being the kid- nappers and immediate steps will be taken 'and are being taken to accom- plish their arrest. "Emergency telephone lines for this case are lying on the ground where they were placed by telephone men within 75 feet of where the body was found." Mount Rose is a hamlet of five - houses and a general store. The Sit. Rose road is a little -travelled cross- road between Princeton and Hopes well. The discovery of the body in the very coun reside' where the kidnap ping took place followed more " than two months of whirlwind investiga- tion, 13then he resumed his summing-up Mr. Justice M'Cardie said that one, witness had spoken of the: eubcon- scious'mind. "I confess," he said, "that I have never been able to fathom -and I don't think many of the wit- nesses have really `fathomed—the sec- rete oi the subconscious mind." '`This action touches the very grav- ities of life and death,"" said Mr. Jus- tice 1liCardie, "and I say, ire -natty,' that I dislike the action very much, especially' that aspect of it." Sir Oliver Lodge had said we were living in a world of illusions, and Mr, °Justice McCardie remarked, "I am• not sure that this Court is not in dan- ger of becoming a court of .illusion, if these things to which witnesses have spoken are to be treated as part of the realities of life." Sir Oliver Lodge had a "magn'lfi- cent position in the world of science," and was "one of the great figures in English :pt{blic life." but was he re= liable upon a matter of .that sort? ""He certainly was not hysterical, and had no emotions as one' or two of the lad- ies displayed on decagons." The judge wondered' whether some of the wit- nesses were' not themselves in a world of illusion, whether they were not liv- ing a w-orld of dreams. Then came the' most remarkable of the many scenes which have marked the trial. Mrs. Morris, very pale, had entered the court during the' summing up, and had sat with closed eyes lis- tening to 'Mr. Justice M'Cardie's low even tones. \'S'-ith closed eyes she rose, grasped the lapels of her costume coat; and in deep tones said—"Thou who art my brother Judge, hearken ro my voice." The judge ordered her to stop and to sit down. The voice stop- ped:" then it continued—"I will say this." "Let her speak," shouted some- one in Court. "We have 'had this so often," replied the judge, "she must sop?. Mrs. Morris' counsel declared that there would be harm in touching her, but the judge ordered, nTake her out" and then the voice—"Do not touch her until I have left the body." The judge, however. insisted that Mrs. Morris should- go. and as an, usher stepped forward site fell sideways in- ro the arms o: a friend_ Mrs. -Morris was lifted bodily and carried out off court. Concluding his humming up, Mr. Justice M'Cardie said:—"I Trope I have not upset the feelings of any -one unnecess rii -. but, as a judge, I care not for ail the incarnate or discarnate' :spirits in the world, and as long as I remain on the bench I shall resolutely seek to reach for truth and shall ad- vise the jury ee, do the sante, though there may be ten 'thousand million discarnate spirits around tis.

Norman cii;*,atzkop..in°announcing the find- ing of the body of the Lindbergh baby: said: "\\-e have to announce that appar- ently eine body of the Lindbergh baby was found at t 1i put Thursday. May 12th. by William Alen.lco.ored, Trenton, who was riding on the `bit. Rose Road toward Hopewell, . "He was: riding with Orville Wilson on a truckload of timber. "Thee stop- ped the trunk and found the body of a b sy_"' Ships at $ea had been searched. A 'New Jersey state' police officer had been sent to Europe to 'pursue one phase of the inquiry there. 'Wild tips came to the Lindbergh estate by mail and cable from almost every nation on ' the globe. Special translators were employed to 'handle the foreign mail that poured in when the investigation was at its height. One peak of the long, drawn-out search came when it was learned that Dr. John F. Condon, aged 13,:ew York educationist, on April 2 had paid $50,- 000 . ranuom money., as an agent for Col. Lindbergh.' to a man in the shadow of a Bram (New York city) cemetery. 'This development followed a long series of communications between Dr. Condon and men who represented themselves as agents of the kidnap- pers. Some of this coutntunicatiou was by notes and the resat through a series of newspaper advertisements which : Dr. Condon signed with the name of Taste." Fit:allc, 'convinced he was in con- tact With the actual kidnappers, he paid the money." He later said Col. .Lindbergh himself sat in a car a block away while the stoney, in bills ei of small denomination, passed hands. II The colonel and some of his asso- ciates immediately left for the Massa- chusetts coast, where Hr. Condon said the receiver of the ransom had said the baby would be fatted. ' Two days of futile search followed. Finally, convinced those who re- ceived the stoney were not going to lire lip to their part of the bargain. Lindbergh gave a list of the serial slumbers of the bills to the United States treasurer department. The numbers were sent far and wide. Some of the bills were reported fouetd, but the discov riee did not lead inveSt:gatpr any • nearer to a solution of the, mystery or discovery of the child': whereabouts.
