Don't Mistake the Magnitude.

appeal Of Henry Ciews as treasurer
of the Dollar Christmas Fund for
Homeless Belgians. A pathetic state
ment is furnished by the secretary, in
which it is declared that
Over five million BeIsians confront
starvation; nearly two million moro
are destitute. European help Is ut
terIy insufficient. Without American
aid promptly given the worlds great
est tragedy of sorrow and agony will
be complete.
To avert starvation this winter The
Dollar Christmas Fund is cooperating
with the other relief agencies. All
our workers give their services free
and because We want every cent pos
sible to go to the stricken Belgians
whose sufferings are majestic in sim
pie heroism and accomplishing en-
durance even this personal appeal
comes to you as second class mail
matter in order to save postage.
No luxury or comfort is asked
merely donations for the barest neces-
stiles Of life.
If you realize countless children are
crying for food, frail women suffering,
aged men are homeless and shivering
we know you will give before Christ

than few cents for each destitute

Bible Reading in School

Dr. Wilbur F. Crafts, In sending US
his new book of BIBLE STORIES
AND PLANS for review. tells OF an
experience in Maine last summer which
illustrates the need of more attention
to this subject. He was visiting
summer school in Aroostook in which
teachers were brushing UP for their
autumn work, and referred to the fact
that the first night after David's fight
from Jerusalem on the outbreak Of the
rebellion of Absalom, with the danger
of losing his throne and his life, and
what was worse, losing 1t all at the
hands of his own son whom he dearly
loved, he took his harp and for the
first time uttered the prayer, Now
lay me down to sleep in the Fourth
Psalm, and in the Third Psalm, written
the next morning, declares that he laid
him down and slept. This story was
told to illustrate how much Bible his
tory may be illuminated by connecting
it with the Bible poetry.
The Interpretation of Bible stories
by poems Is the leading feature OF the
book which DR.. Crafts was then pre-
pairing. The principal Of this summer
school asked the IS teachers who were
present how many of them were IA
miliar with the story of Absalom, and
in that most American part of America
only two held up their hands.
DR.. Crafts in a personal letter toa the
editor of the Kennebec Journal, says;
I'VE hope that some one will do in
that State what has been done in some
other States, buy these books which
are sold for less than cost, and give
them at least to the High schools of
the State, which would probably bring
them to the attention also of the super
intendents of schools. I hope that
Maine is doing something along the
line in which so many States are NOV
ing, of connecting the Sunday Schools
and the public schools. by such a sys-
tenn OF credits as that of North Da-
kota, which you will find described in
the opening pages of this volume, but
the Australian plan and some others
are still better and Maine ought to
have the best, which would be a COM
bination of the best things in many
other plans; but most Of all, Maine
needs more impressive reading in the
schools of a greater variety of Bible
selections. Many teachers read the
% Psalm % times year, and the 10
Psalm 10 times, and a few other fav-
orite passages, and give no. adequate
of the Bible, and do not
read even those passages with the
best elocution, not having been aroused
to appreciate the influence that effect
i've Bible reading may exert in the
lives of the pupils and make them
students in school and better citizens
In mature life."

New Type of Truant Officer.

The old idea of the truant officer as
a ..kid cop is passing away, according
to W. S. Deffenbaugh, of the United
States Bureau of Education, who has
recently been in conference with at
tendance officials from all parts of the
United States. The new trua1lt officer,
according to Mr. Deffenbaugh, is a
man of entirely different type. quite
frequently, woman. In several cities
q large percentage of truant officers
are college graduates; in other cities
they are men and women with expert
ence as social workers; but whether
college graduates or not, they are re-
oufred to know and understand the
home conditions of school children.
Attendance officers of the new type
are interested in removing fundamen-
tai causes of truancy rather than in
merely catching the offenders The
chief cause of the failure to obey at
tendance laws, according to the ma
tional league of compulsory education
officials, is inadequate family life. Res
olutions adopted at the recent meet
ing of this organization, therefore,
called for adequate and uniform mar
rfage and divorce laws for the protec-
ton of childhood; enactment and en-
forcement of laws pertaining to the
issuance of marriage licences that will
prevent child marriages and prohibit
the marriage of persons physically.

They urge that the Juvenile courts be
given Definite authority to place par
ents as well as children on probation
for truancy and delinquency; they ask
better State supervision of dependent
children; civil service for all truant Of
ficers; and the maintenance of paren-
tai schools. special rooms for truants
and incorrigibles, and health inspec-
ton of schools as material factors in
child welfare.
The attendance officer of the new
type is to be far better trained man
or woman and is to receive better pay.

The move by the Board OF Trade
