Remarkable Results with HeatIess
school Rooms IN Chicago.
The result of experiments with heatless
school rooms in winter is described by
Burton J. Hendrick in August McClure's
in which the writer says In part:
The Chicago educational system has or
iginated a new verb-"to humidity" The
meaning is simple: all hot air, before en-
tering the schoolroom, u passed through
Jets OF water or OF steam. 1t now picks
up it's moisture in "humidifying' chambers
in the basement, instead OF in the threats
and nasal passages OF the children and
teachers.

schools In the stock yards district. has

winter of abolishing heat altogether. In
these rooms he has adopted a new educa-

One day last winter when the thermom

A PRAYER For TEACHERS.
Lay Appeal for Divine Grace and
Guidance.


Lay Appeal for Divine Grace md
Guidance.
The American magazine for August
contains the following prayer, For All
Teachers" by Walter Rauschenbusch.
We implore thy blessing. o God, on
all the men and women. who teach the
children and youth of our nation, for
into their hands we daily commit the
dearest that we have We know that
they are the potent friends and helpers
OF our homes, and that as they make
our children, so shall future years see
them. Grant them an abiding conscious
ness that they are coworkers with thee,
thou great teacher OF humanity, and that
thou hast charged them with the holy
duty of bringing forth from the budding
life Of the young the mysterious stores
of character and ability which thou hast
hidden in them. Teach them to reverence
the young lives, clean and plastic, and
to realize that generations still unborn
shall rue their sloth or rise to higher
levels through their wisdom and faith
fulness. Grid them for their task with
double measure of thy patience and
tranquility, with a great fatherly and
| motherly love for tsle young. and with
special tenderness for the baclxwar>, and
afflicted. Save them from physical ex-
| haustion, from loneliness and discourage
ment, from the numbness Of routine. and
| from all bitterness of heart ~
We bless thee for the free and noble
spirit that is breathing with quickenine
power upon the educational life of our
day and for the men and women OF
large mind and loving heart who have
made that spirit our common possession
by their teaching and example. Blu
grant that higher obedience and self
restraint may grow In the new atmos
