Dr. Scott of the Uni versity of Michigan is chairman of this Committee; John Clapp of Lake Forest college. Lake Forest, Ill.,. is vice chair man, and Rollo l.. Lyman of the Univer- sity of Chicago is secretary. It is the desire of the council that through the work of this committee on speech the use of oral speech throughout the coun- try may undergo marked changes for the better within the next decade. All state educational associations are being urged to cooperate in arousing interest among persons who are now indifferent to matters of enunciation, pronunciation and musical qualities of the voice. This Is one of the especially significant fea- lures of the work the council is doing, and one of the lines of development which make it an important department of teachers organizations.

A SUMMER SHELTER
Fly IRENE WESTON

| Wise folk spend a great deal of time
 on the lawn Some kind of shelter is ex- ! tremey useful. not only when the sun 1 is hot, but also on those windy days
 which come alone. even in the summer. Tho writer made a remarkably handy shel
 ter out of light wood and brown paper, l which proved of great service. This Is how the idea was carried out:
 ! First of all three hoops were purchased. | TEese were the ordinary wooden kind used by children; the biggest one was about four feet in diameter. the next | foot less and the smallest only IS inches l in size. About 30 feet of the thinnest
 matched boarding was bought This is very cheap, and even since the war be- | gan it has not advanced very seriously. Finally. a bundle of laths and about dczen sheets of brown paper completed
 the puIc chases which were needful to make
 a start
 1 The wooden framework is built In this
 way: Cut off four strips of the matched | boarding, each measuring six feet in length. Now take the hoops and bore
 holes in four places of each, opposite | to one another. Take the long boards
 and with number of small screws fasten
 the hoops to them; it is wise to have the
 boards on the outside of the hoops and \ a. regular intervals. The biggest hoop is at the bottom, and this forms a base for
 the shelter. The middle sized hoop Is
 half way mp the shelter, whilst the small one is at the top. By saving out Just
 one section of the central hoop it will be
 possible to make opening by means of
 which the interior of the framework can | be entered.
 | The spaces in between the wooden up-
 rights. apart from those at the entrance | to the shelter, are filled in with laths at regular intervals These may be tackled l into position with small nails. As well as | the top of the small hoop, it Is a good plan ! to nail short laths right across. In this
 way small platform may be formed, onto l which about half an old broomstick is rested This is by way of a finishing 1 touch at the upper part of the shelter. 1 From the small hoop to midway up the pole, short lengths of laths should be 1 carried, to form the framework of the soping roof
 The whole of the wooden frame of the
 shelter is now completed and the next
 step is to proceed to cover it with the
 brown paper. Ordinary flour paste of good | strength must be used, and the paper | should be well soaked with the adhesive.
 Every part of the shelter is covered, and | it will be found that when dry the paper
 stretches out tightly like a drum 1 As finishing touch, it is a good plan
 to give the paper coating of white paint This gives a smart appearance,
 and also makes the paper able to with
 stand the effect of a brief shower, as the
 water runs off the painted surface. A tiny | flag might be tackled on to the pole at the
 summit to give it a gay effect The great
 value of the shelter Is that it is so very light. It is quite easy to lift 1t about with one hand and turn it just which way 1t is needed. One could hardly inn agine a more useful shelter, especially
 where there are any convalescents about
 who need some protection from our uncer- | tain climate

WOOD AND IRONWORK OF SUMMER SCHOOLS NOW ON DISPLAY AT THE PUBLIC LIBRARY

Work in the Birmingham Summer satisfactorily since it's opening, and with the term now half completed re- suits are beginning to show.
 Many of the teachers are preparing for the July examinations and these are meeting for daily classes in the 2 common school branches. theory and practice of teaching, class management, psychology. and later there will be q class in Alabama school laws. The ex- aminations in literature and English grammar cover the subject thoroughly as we'll as requiring tests on certain books. and the teachers are hard at work with these studies
 Those who are not preparing for ex- aminations are taking courses in sub jects they will teach or in which they are especially interested. The courses in school music. drawing and instruc- ton in supervising these subjects arc being taken by many teachers and piano. voice and violin are other courses in the music department.
 For the first time there are courses for others than teachers. Mrs Eldred has charge of courses in household decoration, arts and crafts. MT. Wealth ersbee is giving instruction in gardeu- ing. Miss Hansis in cooking, domestic science and sewing MT. Graves has classes In woodwork
 A number of teachers are taking this course. some of them preparing to teach or to supervise this work, and others taking it for their own pleasure.

SUBMARINES GETTING
 SUPPLIES FROM SPAIN

Madrid, June 28.-(Special) l)-Spanish provincial newspaper had discovered that German submarines are receiving supplies of all kinds from a secret base near Vil- agarcia. A small steamer belonging to a. merchant of that city was recently cap tured by the Spanish gunboat Dorado, which confiscated its cargo of benzine.
 On several asions scores of barrels of benzne have been seen floating near the coast. The Spanish government is row investigating these discoveries. but the results are being kept strictly secret.
 It is an established fact, however. that not long ago a member of the German legation at Madrid. accompanied by the captain of one of the German steamers interned at Vigo. went to Cape Finisterre for the purpose of erecting secret Ger man wireless station there The two men in vain tried to get possession of small peninsula there and when they failed they bribed the priest of neighboring village to help them erect collapsible wireless mast in small wood close by his church. The wireless apparatus was to be worked by the priest and hts intimate friend the local doctor.

It Is expected that King George 8 lead in this direction will be greatly fol- lowed by the lesser owners; but with the end of racing for the remainder of the year. many of the smaller owners will be compelled to break up their studs, owing to their inability to bear the ex- pense of maintaining their stables.

DECIDES UPON TWO STEPS
Upon Course to Be Taken as
to Germany.

Washington, Aug. 23.-Before the
last note to Germany, which was de-
signed to terminate the diplomatic
interchange regarding the submarine
issue was cabled to Berlin, the Presi-
dent and his advisors deemed it wise
to fix tentatively upon the steps that
would be taken if Germany disre-
garded the warning then given.
Although no intimatiOn was given
that the government had any susplc-
ion that the German government
would commit breach of the prin-
ciples stated by the United States,
the fact was that the actual decision
was reached at that time, so that the
future relations of the United States
with Germany We're made to depend
entirely upon the conduct Of the lat
ter nation
