Hard to Secure
Red Cross Nurse

Tho Red Cross nurse who was re.
Gently engaged by the local Anti
tuberculosis society has not yet been
chosen by the officials OF the Red
Cross society. DR.. C. o. Henry has
had charge Of the correspondence Of
the local society in regard to the mat.
ter and reports that the headquarters
of the National society advise him that
nurse suitable for this community
is hard to find. 1t Is thought that the
mobilization OF the Red Cross nurses
for service on the Mexican border has
reduced the list OF available nurses to
the minimum. The local officials OF
the league are of the opinion that q
nurse will be sent soon now that the
war scare has abated.

ing inasmuch as the Baltimore

you make whatever inquiry you
deem ady isable as to whether or
not proper interest would be dis

and after this is done we will, be
ina position to come to a decision
as to whether or not the transfer

ENGLISH SCHOOL
SYSTEM SEVERELY
TAKEN TO TASK
Sir Oliver Lodge Unsparing mi
Criticism Of Defects Appar-
ent in Educational Matters
Of His Country,
(Associated Press Correspondence.l

/ London, Jan. 1S.--Neglect of INTEL
/ lectual things. satisfaction with mere
4 book knowledge, inattention to facts,
concentration on physical proves,
widespread ignorance Of science and
consequent contempt for Investigation
and expert knowledge are the basic
faults of the English educational sys-
TEN. said Sir Oliver Lodge in his ad-
dress before the annual conference of
educational associations held In Lon
don.
War. he continued had opened the
eyes of the nation To certain perils
which during a long era of peace had
been overlooked. War had now made
apparent the ignorance Of the govern
Ing classes. English education led TO
widely diffused knowledge. lnitia-
tive was lacking. and only the per-
sona character and courage Of the
men--and women--of all classes had
saved the country The people, as
wen as their leaders, were now learn
ing from the enemy
Sir oliver condemned the educa-
ti0hal ideals of modern Germany as
a heavy pedagogical grind and a soul
less preparation for business, In which
purely material objects had been ele-
waited To the region of worship and
sentiment. The old, delightful, senti-
mental Germany with its message to
the soul of the human race, he said,
had been slain. But this did not JUS
tify English failure to teach the ele-
mental facts of science and TO train
students 10 make the hest use Of their
brains
The speaker blamed the government
for neglccting carly In the war to
make use of the experts in trade and
manufacture who had been eager to
offer their services. He put this fall
ure to ignorance rather than vicious
ness. Experts were not called In, be-
cause they were not trusted. Only
gradually did the need for their aerv
ices loom up before those in charge of
the empires destinies. This kind of
ignorance was not confined TO poll
ticians alone, but even 10 manufac-
turers, who had long RETAINED from
calling in expert advisers.
Forcib.e feeding in knowledge did
not appeal to Sir oliver, who thought
the primary change should be in cul-
tiyating the faculties of observation,
the spirit of Independent investigation
and the habit Of going direct to nature
for facts. Better scientific instruction,
particularly in physiology and hygiene,
was thought necessary. Ability ought
to be encouraged among the pupils
and the brains Of the working class
boys utilized, rs they are not suffici-
emily now
France had added to her wealthsc-
cording to the speaker. by encouraging
and honorng agricultural life and
England should do the same But
this was only one way in which
science could be used to increase ma
tlonal prosperity
Infant mortality could be greatly re-
duced, Sir Oliver concluded, by teach
ing girls hygiene, housekeeping and
the care Of infants.
