cannot, therefore, appeal too strongly
to our Statas&and communities for still
moro liberal support III promoting sec
IondarY education and STRENGTHENING
the present onward movement.
VII. With the call for better schools
and more extended courses goes hand.
In hand the need for teachers Of higher
training. The schools are what the
teachers make then-after their own
image and inAtheir own likeness That
Our primary and secondary education
may come toits fullfruihon, we appeal
to the people or every State to meet
this imperative need Of trained leader
ship by far more generous support OF
cur state universities and by adequate
ricVsiot for our colleges and schools
for the higher training of teachers.
VIII. We recognize the Seducative and
sriritualizing INFLUENCE Of great books
won llfe and we would now render
grateful recognition4to8t the individuals
ord organizations that have aided In
the establishment in our Southland of
libraries, both travelling and perma
! nent
TX. While we are not unmindful OF
I the debt we owe to the military hero
ism that laid the foundation OF our
4 free government. we believe the time
is at hand when the teachings Of the
| Prince of Peace should prevail; we de-
sire to add our united Communication
tof the movement toward universal
/ Eeace amongst the nations. which has
| taken visible form and shape in the
international Cancellation AssAciation
and The Hague Conference; we pledge
our moral support to every we'll di-
4 rected effort in that direction and our
Influence ne teachers In the training
Of the youth of our land to the ideals
/ OF r'd-wids peace and the settle
ment of international, as of all other
/ difficulties by means Of arbitration.
1 x. We acknowledge our debt OF
gratitude to the General Education
4 Beard for former help. to the univer-
1 sty Of Tennessee, to the citizens OF
i Knox county and Knoxville, and tc
4 generously co-operated to make pos.
! sible the continuance of the Summer
z School OF the South. It's helpful in.
fluence has already been felt in every
State. South and North, and in every
Ihhse OF educational service. No
4 only we. but every friend of American
4 education. shares this gratitude.
Z XI. The success OF all the move
nerts looking to better schools fo
the South waits on the.preparation o
the teacher. We believe that the sum
. mer School Of the South can make on
OF the most important contributions t
this preparation for efficient service
! and feel that It's usefulness should no
be circumscribed by the chance o
LEGAL support or the Limitations of per
scnal energy and individual initiative
We therefore appeal to all friends o
education to help in securing for tn
: Summer School Of the South an ade
!, quate permanent endowment and thu
, make certain the continuance of 1t
teneficent work.
