Three Urgent National Needs.

"Our three most urgent national
needs" says DR.. Jackson, ARE to
mobilize intelligence. food and money.
But it is not possible to mobilize
them until we first mobilize the peo-
pie. The nations present need has
made apparent the necessity of or
ganizing local communities
'Theas post Office, corner store and
saloon are passing as social centers,
but they must be replaced with
something better If they are not to
be replaced with something worse.
For only he can destroy who can re
place. The public school therefore
stands before an open door of oppor-
tunity to become neighborhood
club, where the people can meet on
terms which. preserve their self-re-
spect."
