DAY-BY-DAY WAR STORY
FOR THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
New York City Children to Be Kept
Posted on the European
Conflict.

NEW YORK. September GA new
course of study in connection with
geography and history is to be taught in
the New York public schools during the
period of the European war. A name
has not yet been given to the new course,
but DR.. William H Mexwell, superin-
tendent of schools. in statement of in
structions to teachers made public today,
has outlined its principal features. which
will have to do with the movements from
day to day of the armies engaged in the
European struggle.
For this purpose" said Or. Maxwell
in his instructions, ''the newspapers are
the most valuable source of Information
at this time. This is an important epoch
in the history of the world, and the
pupils of our public schools will see new
boundaries in the making. For that rea-
son l shall suggest that in all school,
rooms a map of the continent of Europe
be displayed, on which from day to day
the changes in the armies and in the
navies may be noted. Probably black
board map will suffice for this purpose.
1t is understood that the teachers OF
the schools when the term begins week
from next Monday will have arranged
for collateral reading in history and
geography so as to keep their pupils In
formed concerning the significance OF all
the battles.

But that was before golf was re-

my sweater along. Oh, thanks, aw-
fully. Charmed to have had a mo-
ment's chat with you"
The girl caddie was an established
institution on French golf links be-
fore Frenchmen threw aside golf
balls to play with cannon balls, and
some American golfers who have
played abroad rather like the idea of
having sweet young things" tote
their golf sticks about for them, and
