EDUCATION BUREAU
SURE TO DEVELOP
Commissioner ClaXtOn Fore
sees Great Future.

Outlining projects for the Federal Blu
reau Of Education. involving the ex-
penditure OF $4,000 more than the pres
ent years appropriation calls for, Com
missioner of Education Philander p.
CIaxton told the Federal Schoolmen's S
Club OF the District at their January
meeting last night that Congress would
have no proposal of increase that would
mean more to the nation than that sub
mitted for the Bureau OF Education oy
the Department OF the Interior.
Projects that involve these radical in
creases from $4,000 to $40, 900 in the
Federal Bureau Of Education were de-
tailed to the schoolmen with the enthu-
siasm and conviction of a man who has
= new idea OF the function of the COM
missioner. DIR. Claxton declared that
while the chartered purpose of his bu-
reau was first stated as the collection
and publishing of educational statistics
this function he proposes to have the
bureau perform more accurately, COM
pletely, and promptly than ever Yet this
is only a beginning.
The meeting of the club for election OF
members preceded the dinner at the
Highlands. Those elected included A. T.
Stuart, B. W. Murch, Q. Fairbrother. and
b. T Jsnney, all Of the Washington
public schools. Those who attended the
dinner and heard the address of Or.

Join McGraw's Giants at the close of

Yes, I am going with McGraw," he
said today, "but that won't keep me
from finishing my course at Emory

unexpected happens I'll return to col

However, 1 propose to teach a cou-
pie of years or so during the winter

myself for the Methodist ministry.

ODAY DREAMS.

One night Sir Hennery O'Day-or some
time rudely known as Hank
Dreamed that he lay in happy death, his
soul one with the spectral rank:
And where st. Peter holds the key, ne
stood beside the pearly gate
And saw beyond where streets of gold
and countless remnants lay in wait
ST. Peter came. 'eWho knocks he cried
land seeks admittance to our craft?
What record stands against your name to
show that you are worth the draft?
What medals dangle from your breast as
one among the brave and bold,
To show that you have earned the right to
play upon harp of gold?'
For twenty years. Sir Hank replied, Il
wore the blue blouse OF Jump
Where Griffith sneered and Evers roareo
and John McGraw was on the jump;
For twenty years, from fading youth to
middle age 1 stood the test
Until thought the time had come to seek
a respite and a rest.
And them" ST. Peter said. And ther,"
continued Hank. "I looked about
Before I doffed the mask for good ard
edged off from the daily rout;
For twenty years an uTnp, and now Witn
reason shattered and in shreds,
On top of that for seven months, I've been
the boss of Herrmann's Reds
The great key creaked within the lock, the
gate of pearl swung deep and wide,
The chorus of thousand harps came
echoing in stunning tide;
Until above the welcome roar st. Peters
message broke the spell;
Come. enter mo blighted soaI-You'Ve
overstayed your time in hell
