CLUB WOMEN ARE
 CALLED UPON TO WORK
 FOR BETTER SCHOOLS

Mir. P. P ClaXton, Commissioner of Education, has issued the following ap peal:
 To all club women in the United States
 Everywhere there seems to be fear lest our schools of all kinds and grades and especially the public schools, will suffer this year because of conditions growing out of our entrance into the war. On the other hand, both for the present defense and for the future welfare of our country, as well as for the individual benefit of the children, it is of the greatest importance that the schools shall be maintained in their full efficiency, both as to stand ards of work and attendance of child ren.
 Temptations to DeIinquencies.
 While the war continues there will be many unusual temptations to many kinds of juvenile delinquencies Prompt and regular attendance at school and proper employment during out -ofschool hours will be the child rens surest protection against such temptations.
 When the Joys and girls now of school age | reached manhood and womanhood ere will be need for higher standard of intelligence, skill, and wisdom for the work of life and for the duties and responsibilities of citizenship than we have ever yet at tained. Our schools must now be so sustained and improved as to enable them better to prepare our boys and girls for life and work in the new age which will follow the close of the war and the coming of peace. No boys and girls must now be neglected or ex- plotted for selfish ends.
 Club Women Can Help.
 In all this probably no others can be quite sohelpful as the club women of the country most of whom are also mothers of children. For this reason am taking the liberty of suggesting to them that in all women's clubs this should be made a subject of discus sion at their first meetings this fall and from time to time throughout the year; suggestion to which they will I feel quite sure, respond heartily and gladly.
