THE kAISER'S REGRETS.

We wonder what the kaiser thinks
Of America by this time He must he
nightly disappointed He must have
thought "d,nder and bitten" when lc
saw million American soldiers on the
battlefront and more millions on their
way; when he learned Of a hundred wdr-
ships launched on the Fourth OF July;
whep he heard that al the quotas of
Thrift Stamps and Liberty Bonds went
over the top; when he saw the great
armadas Of food and munitions gone
across the seas; when he discovered that
the American boys were great fighters,
and when he read President Wilson's
Fourth Of July speech at Mount Vernon.
He must by this time see how foolish it is
to expect the world TO conform to German
kultur or to think that divine right was
especially designed for the Hohenzollerns.
Like old Satan, who was pitched out Of
heaven for defying the Almighty, the
old kaiser will go into history as the
Infamous for revolving against civillza-
ton and humanity y-Ohio State Journal.

In vain for him she long will yearn;
Her soldier boy will not return.

Chancellor Colvin Tells the
Teachers School Work
Must Go Forward.

The first lecture on the El Paso
summer normal school lecture course
was delivered by chancellor H. H. Col
win Friday morning on Education and
the War" Mr.. Colvin explained that
great number Of institutions had
abandoned their summer normals this
summer on account Of the war and
others had been forced TO do SO be-
cause the attendance did not bring
I'm enough money TO finance the sum
mer school He stated that FL Paso,
along with United States commission
er Of Education p. p. Claxton, took
the opposite attitude and decided that
now. more than at any other time,
teachers should be solidly prepared to
efficiently carry on education through
summer normal work.
Has Money From Chamber.
He explained that the III PasO
chamber OF commerce had set aside
money 10 help finance the summer
normal school so that It could run
whether there were few students or
many. and that every course offered
would go through the entire season.
He congratulated the teachers in com
ing TO the normal I'm so great NUM-
bers as compared with the attend
ance Of other normals this summer,
many Of which had to suspend opera
body
Teach world Citizenship.
Chancellor Colvin said i'm part This
is a war between the principle Of gov
eminent by the few and self govern
ment by the many. United States set
the standard Of self government ana
the allied countries have tried 10
move towards that standard. The
movement even reached autocratiC
Germany and the kaiser's bureau
cracy saw that unless the movement
was killed it would be swept aside
by democracy The kaiser and the
governing class saw their doom at
the hands of a slowly waking German
people. They chose to take their
chances at being blown uD from the
outside TO being blown NJ from the
inside and therefore struck at world
democracy while the striking was
good. Had they waited ten years il
would have been too late, according
to the universal opinion OF govern
ment experts
Must Teach Democracy.
Pan ermanism means a narrow
Pan-Americanism and world democ-
racy means a wide patriOtism-patri-
otisui for the whole world and the
good Of mankind. That this war may
not be repeated. it is the duty Of
teachers 10 teach boys and girls world
patriotism so they can take their
place iu the United States of the
world that viii follow the war. as
world citizens and not just citizens
of Texas and United States IF the
teachers Of the world do not teach
world democracy and citizenship, this
horrible war VIII be repeated
