MUST AVOID DRYNESS

AS the first of the promising series
OF lectures to be given ut the univer-
sity during the summer session. Mrs
{. w. Heatherineton of the t-nivcr
sity of Wisconsin spoke Yesterday
morning of the work being done in
connection with the University of
southern California to incorporatc the
real and Spontaneous life of the child
IN the school life. Or. and Mrs. Heath
erington have been in charge Of this
work during three summer sessions in
California and Mrs. Heatherineton is
now en- route to take up her work at
the fourth session.
TripIicate Type Failure.
Mrs. Iicatherington declared that the
triplicate type OF organization Of home
school and play center as the three
organizations controlling child life was
inefficient and doomed to failure She
explained how the school fails in meet
ing the childs need of spontaneous ac-
tivity and the inefficiency of the play
ground in its neglect OF mental life.
Nor does having the playground at
the school solve the problem" sajd
Mrs. Heatherington.
Must Be Fusion.
According to her there must be n
fusion of the two extra home 0rgani-
cations into one center and this is
what is being attempted at the demon
stration school in California. which in
cludes all that school has meant to the
child and all that play should mean.
II have been asked" said Mrs
HeatherinetOn. IF the disciplinary side
would not be neglected under such an
organization. But surely they must
have been thinking Of school as some
thing dry and harsh. and play as some
thing utterly trivial and useless Per-
haps to a certain extent this has been
true of school, but play is the most
serious activity Of child life-it is life

This Is a picture which must be i'm
pressed upon the public mind If the
great mass of the people Is to realize
what the United States is going to

workers Is not that Of turning out light,

That Is what England expects Of her

The organization to be employed

Mr.. Lansing did not discuss its iden-

Senate with peace messages when
President Wilson was asking that a

World Wide Intrigue.
This disclosure adds another chap
ter to the amazing story begun with
publication OF the famous thinner

an alliance with Mexico and japan
against the United States, and which
has included the German-Swedish
breaches of neutrality III Argentina
and Mexico. 1t connects the German
government and Count Won Bernstorff
directly and conclusively with machi-
nations which the American public
has assumed were a part of the world
wide Teuton intrigue, but which many
people firmly believed yer carried on
or financed in this country by German
Americans without actual authority
from Berlin.

were highly indignant. There was

Preceded U-Bcat Announcement.
This message was sent nine days
before the German government pro
claimed its unrestricted submarine
warfare.
When he wrote it Count Won Bern
stortf was assuring the American gov
ernment and press that under no cir
cumstances would Germany violate
anything that might draw the United
States into the list of her enemies.
With the Lusitania and other cases
in allegiance, the American govern.
nent had made no move since the
Sussex pledge and there was nothing
on the surface to f~oreshadoW impend-
ing trouble.
Directed Piotters' Acts.
Two weeks later, when Won Bern
storff was handed his passports, he
~professed ignorance of prior knowl-
edge OF his governments intentions to
throw its promises to the winds.
Evidence has been accommodating to
prove that the ambassador not only
vas cognizant of, but actually directed
the activities of Boyd and Won Pa
pen, the military and naval attaches,
who were sent home long before the
United States broke relations with
Germany because Of their connection
with bomb plots, passport frauds, spy
ing and other phases of the almost
unlimited operations in this country
Of the German secret service.
Evidence Complete.
How complete is the evidence OF
German diplomatic duplicity remain
ing in the possession OF the United
States government is only conjectural,
but that it is far more than has been
generally supposed is now certain. 1t
