HENRY J. ALLEN TALKS.
Wichita Orator Addresses Teachers on
the Bad Citizenship of Good Citizens.


Henry J. Allen opened the Golden
Belt Educational Association today with
an address concerning the failure of
good citizens to have good citizenship.
In discussing the subject Of the bad
citizenship of good citizens, the speaker
dealt with the fact that the greatest
drawback which America suffers is in
the Indifference of her citizenship to
the use Of efficiency in government.
This lack Of quality in government runs
from the lowest to the highest unit.
Through a sort of ecstatic devotion to
the form OF democracy we have robbed
ourselves of its essence. We have es-
tablished set Of lower principles for
the operation of government than we
have for any other activity m human
life. If man has failed at every thing
else he is still eligible to be elected to
some Office which controls the public
purse, the public business and the pub
lie education. Mr.. Allen discussed the
various forms of municipal, county and
school government, explained the prin-
eiples of the manager system and
pleaded for a more serious-minded citi-
zenship, which would devote itself to
the study of those problems which
peculiarly effect the public good.
Sometimes we hear an American
philosopher expressing preference for
the German system over the American
system and declaring that It makes for
better efficiency, straiehter thinking
and bigger results. There Is no actual
reason why the German system Of gov
eminent should get better results In
efficiency than the American system.
L does get better results through the
fault Of the American people The
German system retires individual
thought; The German citizen Is . part
Of vast governmental machine and
his place IN the machinery is establish
ed, the entire program moves forward
under the direction OF one head. In
America the strength Of our citizenship

Big Crowd-LittIe Hall.

President Lewis in his address OF
welcome this morning said that he
hoped the big crowd this year would
kindly bear with the inconvenience OF
the small auditorium because next year
the Golden Belt could meet in Sheridan
Coliseum. He went on to say that next
year all the teachers, and all their
friends could be easily Accommodated.
Supt. H. Coover of Ellsworth responded
to the welcome and complimented Hays
on its ability to take care Of the crowd
and he also spoke of the good nature
of the crowd.
