To Inspire Courage.

Faith-thoughts, thoughts of bravery
and of courage may just as easily
be instilIed into the mind of tie
normal child as thoughts OF fear and
cowardice. A child should never have
suggested to him that he is afraid,
He should be constantly assured thar
he Is brave. loyal and fearless. Tho
daily repetition of these suggestions
will contribute much to the actual
requirement OF the very traits OF
character that are thus suggested:
but this does not mean that a child
should not be taught caution and
forethought.
Never tell children that you suspect
they are dishonest or untruthful. Es
very slow to accuse and suspect :hen,
OF falsehood or theft. Tell them over
and over again they are the best boys
and girls in the world; that they arc
going to make the noblest of men and
women: that they love honesty and
truth.

Yet this is the sort OF danger that
our great educational institutions
champion when they seek to combat
the basic principles upon which they
are founded. This is the sort OF con-
fusion and antagonism and friction
which we foster when we carry our
business OF suppression into the very
heart of Institutions established for
the specific purpose Of free express
sion.
This movement toward controlling
the ideas which shall be expressed in
educational institutions is not a new
movement initiated since the war
began. 1t has been manifesting it.

Boards resignation is only the most
recent and most significant protest
against this unintelligent suppress
sion.
Cannot Control Thought.
1t is puzzling to determine just
what the trustees and the large class
Of people OF whom they are typical
are 80 afraid of when they refuse 10
allow the universities and colleges to
perform their rational function. Tn
fortunately for this class OF people
they cannot control the thoughts of
all the people
Those who cannot express them
selves in our universities will go else
where and find expression. And The
danger lies in thus forcing advanced
ideas upon the minds OF those un-
trained. unintelligent masses to whom
revolution means only sabotage, and
by whom new thoughts are apt to DO
interpreted at their crudest.
1t is possible that the trustees and
those who are in sympathy with them
will discover too late what they have
done. But meanwhile the dismissal
of few professors. while it may
mean certain financial discomfort
to the victims of this summary
action, can do little to check the in
evitable advance of intelligent discus
sion and logical. social and economic
development which must ultimately
resist suppression ana find its way
toward the light.

Many criminals have confessed be-

were children they were called cow
ards. After while they actually
came to believe that they were cow
ards. and in their efforts to acquire
courage and demonstrate their brav-
cry they were led to desperate and
even criminal acts. They prowled
around the dark alleys just to con-
vince themselves that they were not
afraid. that they were not towards.
and there they made the acuuaipt-

From such suppression springs the
impulse to sudden active resistance
and innumerable attendant social
complications which are calculated to
strike terror in the hearts Of those
who have basked complacently above
the plane Of suppression. And from
such suppression comes a sharper
and sharper cleavage between social
factions which puts mutual under
standing of each others problems and

Teach Courage;
Never Tell Child
He's a Coward
BY DIR. LENA K. sADLER.

(Anthor Of THE Mother and Her
Child."i
TT SOMETIMES takes a lifetime TO
1 undo careless thoughtless remarks.
One day a ell-meaning father sux-
gested to his 5-year-old son that he
was a coward. And while he. was
playing with little friend on the
street We overheard this remark.
Father says I'm the biggest coward
in the whole family"
Looking him straight in the face We
said to him: ''why you're not a
coward. Such fine boy as you
couldn't possibly be a coward"
The boy was greatly amazed. and,
as We walked on, we heard him mur-
muir softly: I'm not coward. She
said I'm not coward" finally add
ing. "She said couldn't be coward"
This one thought. repeated to him
several times and turned over and
over in his mind. eventually over
threw the false fear instilled by tho
father.
Not long ago the daily press con-
tanned the story Of the 10-year-old son
OF New York business man who's
drew his few dollars from the savings
bank, boarded a train for Chicago,
and. after three days Of amusement
and loneliness. his money all gone,
was found in hotel bitterly weep
ing. His identity was revealed. tho
parents were notified at once. and thu
boy was sent on the first train bacl,
TO his home.

4 FEW weeks ago the educational
1Aworld was startled by the resig-
nation OF Professor Beard from the
faculty Of Columbia University. The
resignation followed close upon the
dismissal from the faculty of Pro-
fossor Cattell and Professor Dana,
both avowed pacifists.
Professor Beard is not pacifist.
On tho contrary he has been actively
In favor OF the war. But he believes
that every man has a right to express
his own opinions.
Education in its truest meaning is
Numerically opposed to suppression
The word comes from the Latin
''educere." meaning "to lead out"
and the first principle OF education is
to provide freedom for expression so
that thoughts and ideas that lie latent
in the human mind may be led out
toward the light.
Suppression in Schools.
As soon as suppression is applied to
a system of education thoughts and
ideas that would normally find their
way toward expression are forced
back to smolder in the mind. either
to burn themselves out in dullness or
to gather fire for an uninteliigent
condagration later on.
In either case. the result is unde-
sirable. A nation of people intellectu-
ally deadened by suppression Is not
inspiring to contemplate. Nor. on the
other hand, can one contemplate with
equanimfty the possible disorders in
cldent to inevitable bursting forth of
ideas too strong for restraint but
too long mufiied from the light to be
productive Of intelligent and logical
action. From such suppression come
our billiards and our so-caiIed "fanat-
les"

Forty.six Mento
Each Battle Plane.

After three years Of warfare
the total number of airplants
able to take the air at any one
time on either side of the west
ern front has not been over g.
500. Each plane in the air re-
quires a force of 46 men, two re-
placement planes on the ground,
and one training plane for every
pilot who eventually reaches the
front, with an extra engine for
each plane.
The life of a plane is not more
than two months, and the engine
must be overhauled after each
rs hours. Now that American
battle planes are going overseas,
the great problem is to secure
the thousands of skilled mechan'
les, enginemen, motor re pail
men, wood and metal workers
needed to keep the planes in per-
feet condition. This engineering
and mechanical force at the air
dromes, the flying fields, and re.
pair depots, both here and be-
hind the lines in France, is 9
vital industrial link in the chair
to air supremacy.
