~ NE of the most interesting de-
velopments of the week Is the
~ announcement of the United
States Bureau of Education
that it has undertaken the gigantic
task. in conjunction with the National
Municipal League, of making a COM
prehensive study of the whole problem m
of civic education. The Bureau of
Education thus hopes to do officially
and Systematically what has hereto
fore been attempted by a number of
organizations working independently.
Many civic associations throughout the
United States have been agitating in
behalf Of education for citizenship.
Valuable results have been obtained
and many communities have made
important experiments in improving
citizenship through the schools and
through other agencies. The bureau
will seek to coordinate these hitherto
separate efforts, to bring cooperation
where independent action has pre-
vailed. to make known everywhere
the results of civic education SO far
accomplished and to formulate a con-
structive plan for definite work in this
important field.
The bureau thus early finds that one
of the most pressing problems in citi-
zenship education is that of properly
equipped teachers. There are few
teachers that have had the requisite
special training. 1t will be one of the
vital tasks in the new work to find
out what can be done to train men
and women, whether already in the
service or just preparing to teach, for
the definite responsibilities and possi-
bilities of direct instruction in citizen
ship.
The bureau will inquire as to
whether it is sufficient that children
should know how the President is

THURSDAY EVENING, FEB. 10
SUPERVISORS CONVENTION

IN AUPHIN county's township su-
pervisors have been summoned
- to meet in the first convention of
the kind ever held in Dauphin
county. The meeting will be held in
Harrisburg on March az and every
supervisor worthy of the name will
be present. The gathering will be
held under the auspices of the State
Highway Department and the terms
of the township road bureau act will
be explained.
This new law is designed to bring
about hearty and effective cooperation
between the road supervisors Of the
several counties and the experts of
the State Highway Department
Supervisors have been severely CEN
sured In the past for the condition of
the roads under their care. Some of
this criticism has been we'll deserved
but much of 1t fell upon the heads OF
faithful public servants who were do
ing the best they knew under great
handicap.
The trouble has been that men have
been elected to the road jobs who did
rot know anything about road con-
struction beyond the filling up of mud
holes and the leveling off of high
spots. The first principles OF road en-
gineering were as Greek to them
They were farmers who knew good
roads when they used them, but who
were, in the very nature of things.
ignorant as TO the fundamentals Of
highway construction.
The township road bureau has been
created to correct this condition. Ex-
perts In the employ of the State will
be ready at all times to assist the
supervisors. They will aid them in
solving their problems will draw plans
and specifications and when necessary
consult in person with puzzled officials.
This without cost TO the township
Some counties have for years main
tsined organizations of supervisors,
anticipating to some degree the pro
Visions of the township bureau act,
hut Dauphln county supervisors have
not been so affiliated. Doubtless the
March convention will result In some
such association being formed. n its
provisions are carried out the effect
for good of the new law on the town

elected. or that they should be able to
modern social and civic questions.
clean streets. pure water, milk supply,
fire protection, means of Transports
ton. cooperation. suffrage, divorce
etc.--are to be considered. These are
the sort of questions to which the new
corps of investigators will have to give
some attention, and very properly so.
In addition, an effort will be made to
report the many attempts on the part
OF progressive communities to give all
school subjects a more definite civic
value. In Kansas City. for example,
the chemistry course in the high
school is in effect course in practical
analysis, with their significance In
community life, are emphasized, and
high school students serve in the mu-
nicipal laboratories. Cleveland teaches
municipal problems in the biology
course. Indianapolis has a course in
community arithmetic in the ele-
mentary schools. Vocational educa-
tion and school hygiene both have
civic phases of immense importance.
These and other practical matters in
citizenship training will be carefully,
examined.
Commissioner Claxton points out
that in the larger sense all education
is really education for citizenship; that
not only is citizenship training cock
tensive with effective education in gen.
eral, but that the final justification Of
public taxation for public education
lies in the training of young people
for citizenship"
There is room right here in Harris
burg for the adoption of some of the
practical suggestions herewith out
lined and the new project of the ma
tional bureau deserves the earnest
study and cooperation of all our edu-
Gators.
