German in our schools and colleges
ana in the closing paragraph he
SAYS II have reason to believe that
the views and sentiment expressed
IN this letter are fully in harmony
with those of the administration at
Washington." In that letter he
further says at sincerely hope that
school officers and teachers every
where will take the broad and
sane view of this subject. To do so
can, I believe, in no way be inter-
Dretcd as a lack of loyalty to the
United States, nor can failure % do
so in any way strengthen our posi-
ton in the war or enable us to
bring it to a successful end moro
quickly"
"As the law now stands the elimi-
nation of German from the curric-
uIum of the public schools is a
question to be settled by the board
of school directors of each school
district. The leading characteristics
of the pupils in our public schools
are patriotism and loyalty. This IL
due to the patriotism and loyalty of
the teachers in charge of our schools.
The nature of the instruction in
history and any foreign language de-
pends upon the teachers who give
the instruction and the text books
which are placed in the hands of
the pupils. We have a law upon the
statute books of Pennsylvania that,
in all schools the common branches
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-04-19

must be taught daily in the English
language. This law is obeyed in all
our public schools and the late
Bishop Shanahan did his utmost to
assist in having the law obeyed in
all the parochial schools of Penn
Sylvania.
II have always held that 1t is
the duty of the public schools to
support the Federal Government in
every possible way and 1 regret that
our appropriations have been so
tied up by legislation that we could
not use the money for more extern
sive war activities in our vocational
and other schools. If the Federal
Government should decide that Ger
man is to be eliminated from the
schools l feel sure that all the school
officials of Pennsylvania will obey
the mandate and if the PennsYl-
vania legislature should forbid the
teaching of German in our schools
and colleges, the legislation would
be oheyed strictly and promptly.
Where school boards find it wise TO
eliminate German from the curric-
ulum they should substitute some
other language like French or Span
ish which give equal culture and are
equally va'uable for industrial and
commercial purposes.
Very respectfully yours,
NATHAN c. SCHAEFFER.

DISCUSS STUDY OF
KAESER'S TONGUE
Language Has Some Value,
City Superintendent
Declares

To study German or not to study
German is the question puZzling edu-
Gators of Harrisburg and the state
to-day. The Telegraph recently
printed an interview with e. Noes
lein to the effect that in ten years
the German language would no long
er be heard in this vicinity, and told
how the High school pupils are refus-
ing to study the languages. Now
comes a statesment from DR.. f. E.
Downes, city superintendent of
schools, and another from DIR. Ma
than c. Schaeffer, state superinten-
dent of public instruction, both eau
tioning against too much haste.
DIR. Downes has this to say: I'VE
are apt to do things under the stress
of excitement that we are not like
~ to do in our saner moods; we are
in no position at the present time to-
exercise our cool judgment on this
question of eliminating German He.
then proceeds to point out:
"Of course we are not primarily
fighting q language; we are fighting
q militaristic condition. The Ger
man language, as is the case with all
the leading modern languages, has
it's value as q schoo lstudy, in spite
of argument to the contrary at this
time, and it has peculiar value IN
business and science.
NV answer is that we ought to-
do nothing in haste. Personally II
think the study of the language Will
be more useful to us after the war;
is over in our commercial relationsl
than il was before the war began;
and if the war lasts long, it might
he that it will be useful even in
aelping our soldiers win the war.
The whole syp system, for exam
Dle. is based on the principles OF
being able to know what the enemy
Is saying and doing"
His conclusion is that, after the
manner of a republic lick ours, the
ueoDlo themselves will eventually de-
fnrminn what IS wanted. This, too Isl
tho note struck in DR.. Schaeltec's /
reply to Gabriel II .Moyer, president
or the 2. O. s. of A. in Pennsylvania. |

Careless Use of Soap
Spoils the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully.
If you want to keep your hair look
ing it's best. Most soaps and pre-
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle, and ruins it.
K The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oa
(Which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather.
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky
bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
Der of the family for months.
