GEOGRAPHY STUDY
SL|GHTED--KENDALL
Urges Creation of New Stand
ards at Convention of
Educators.

RICHMOND. Va, Feb 24.-Dr. Cal
vim N. Kendall. State Commissioner
| of Education of New Jersey, at the
National Council of Education here
this morning read a report on
Standards and Tests of Efficiency in
Geography"
DR.. Kendall said the problem re-
quires the setting up of standards OF
study by trained and interested lead
ers in education. "Only when this
has been done will we be in a position
to estimate with confidence and sat-
| isfaction the efficiency of geography
| teaching. Not until then are we like.
| ly to have more than individualistic
! opinion as to 1.-THE efficiency of teach
| ing of this subject, one ofithe import.
ant subjects in the elementary course
of study" Mr.. Kendall said
His report to the National Council
says:
Geography has received scant at
tention from the National Educa.
tional Association. In the past ten
years not to exceed six ON eight pa
pers or addresses on all the various
subjects pertaining to it, both in the
elementary and secondary schools.
have been presented. The literature
on the subject for teachers may be
found in the modest compass of no:
to exceed half a dozen books, some OF
which are of modest merit.
I'm view of these facts 1t is not diff
ficult to see the force of Stanley
Halls statement made several years
ago that geography is the sick sub
Ject in the curriculum"
Il have been trying to gather what
is the consensus of opinion from some
conspicuous teachers of geography as
to what should be the essential pur-
pose in teaching geography and in
these l personally, concur. Summar-
lied there are four:
list. -WellorganiZed observation of
geographical phenomena within the
child's environment-no text books
here.
"2d.-The location of those facts
and features, limited in number,
which should be at the ready SER
vice of any intelligent person, but
not merely sailor geography" there
are some persons who think this pur-
pose has been too much ignored of
late years. Desirable as it may be to
teach facts in geography in connec-
ton with problems set up by either
teachers or pupils, desirable as it may
be to provide motives for learning
facts, yet if problems and motivation
cannot be furnished either by
teachers or children the facts never
the-less should be learned. The situa-
ton here is analogous to the facts
of the multiplication table.
"3d,-Power to reason clearly, from
cause to effect; to lok back of a given
fact to the condition which has
brought it about.
'4th.-Training and skill in the use
of maps, translating the facts and
conditions represented on maps in
terms of the real world. Training in
the use of text books, reference books,
aliases etc. The power to use map
or text book with a definite purpose.

erence to that purpose.

PREDICT PASSAGE
OF POSTAL BILL
Yllird Annual Banquet Is Held
by POstOffiCe Clerks
Association.
COMPENSATION ACT WILL
PASS, SAY CONGRESSMAN
Mccoy and futile Guests of
Honor-Tell of Advance
of Department.

congressman Walter l. Mccoy and
william E. futile, jr., cheered the
local postoffice employees considera-
bly, last night by predicting that the
proposed government employees COM
pensation bill will be enacted during
the present session. The addresses
were made at the third annual ban
auet of Branch II, United National
Association of Postoff1ce Clerks, held
in the Continental Hotel
The statesmen did not hold out
much hope for the passage of the
civil employees pension bill, the pro-
visions of which the public is not
fully acquainted with, they declared.
Postmaster Frank J. Book also spoke
In the same vein regarding these
bills. 80
Congressman Mccoy explained that
under the present system, superanu-
ated government servants are allowed
to retain their positions in lieu of
being retired on a pension. The pro-
posed law would place a light tax on
the working army of clerks and other
employees, he said, and thus enable
the old men to take the rest, earned
aIter long service.
The progress of the postal system
from the time it was inaugurated by
King Charles J., of England, was
described by Congressman Tuttle. AS
an Illustration he cited the annual
postal receipts for the nation in the
last year of George Washington's ad-
miniStration. This sum was no
larger than the amount realized at
the Westfield, N. J., postoffice last
year. Westfield is the home of Con-
gresham futile.
The postal savings banks and par
eel post were the two largest public
benefits secured from recent legisla-
ton, said the speaker. He declared
that these two laws would do much
toward reducing the cost of living,
Government-owned telephone and
telegraph systems, coupled with gov
ernment-regulated railroads, will be
the next and bigger improvements
predicted the congressman.
Another speaker was Albert Z. Lut-
kin, national treasurer of the clerks
association. Seated at the speakers

Speaking of the
NewIy Enlarged
Linen Department

Sometime ago, in view OF the
fast increasing business, we de-
cided to enlarge the Linen De-
partment. At that time this par
ticular section was considered by
many TO be the most complete in
the State of New Jersey and
probably equal TO any similar de-
partment in the large New York
stores.
The work of making the neces-
sary alterations was begun near
" a month ago and has just been
completed. Both sides of one OF
our large, commodious aisles on
the left Of the store, for dis
lance of about $50 feet, are now
occupied by this department.
Separate sections will, in the fu-
ture, be devoted to Table Cloths,
Napkins, Hemstitched, Scalloped
and Fancy Linens, Crash, Bath
Mats, etc.
1t may interest our patrons to
know that over Is per cent. of
our stock is directly imported
from Scotland and ireland. With
out counting the orders already
placed and pending delivery, the
valuation of our linen stock at
present is slightly over $4,000.
