SCHOOL Teachers
20 Be Held by National Security
League Throughout Country
During Coming Summer.

Teachers Plattsburgs." at which
100000 public school teachers will be
given practical training in patriotic
education, will be held during the com
ing summer in practically every state
in the Union by the National Security
League The scheme Of this elaborate
new division of the Leagues Patriot
ism Through Education campaign is
conceived on the same basic idea along
which the League has been working
for some time, concentrating on the
teachers of the youth of the land and
thereby reaching the children through
the teachers and the people through
their children.
The objects of the Leagues cam
paign are two-fold-actiye combating
of German propaganda and awaken
ing more responsible American citi-
Zenship.
At Summer Schools
The Security League will conduct
these Teachers Plattsburgs" through
the medium of the summer schools for
teachers that are held throughout the
country every year. 1t has not Yet
will be used. The matter is being
taken up with all of the 700 summer
schools of the country and probably
between so and Is of the training
camps will be established, the schools
selected being chosen after careful in
vestigation as to attendance, breadth
of influence and convenience of loca-
tion.
The training camps will be conduct
ed by leading educators whose cooper
alton will be enlisted by the League.
The actual instruction will be under
the direction of DR.. Robert NJ. Neil
roy, educational director Of the
League, and the members of the Ma
tional Patriotic Education Faculty"
which he has organized. The League
already has over 1000 experienced pa
triotic speakers on it's Speakers Bu-
reau list. A great many Of these men
and women will be detailed to the
Teachers Plattsburgs" and their
number will be augmented by volun-
teers from the principal colleges and
universities Of the country, whose aca-
demic duties have prevented them
from taking active part in the patri-
otic education work outside their i'm
mediate field. but who will be free
during the summer months.
War Spirit.
The teachers will be given a series
of vital interpretations Of the war by
men and women who have given care
full study to the situation. In addition
to this instilling of the war spirit In
the teachers, the training camps will
also afford them practical instruction
in the best methods of imparting to
the youth Of the land the two war
principles on which the Security
Leagues Patriotism Through Educa-
tion campaign is based-the menace OF
Germany to America, and the neces-
sity of individual service on the part
of every man, woman and child in the
country in order to prevent defeat
A preliminary letter has been sent
by Doctor McElroy to the directors OF
all the summer schools Of the country.

For some weeks eornmeal has been accommodating in the wholesale houses, stores, and in many homes until now there is a large surplus of it in the state, which must be used immediate ly, spoil. To allow any food to spoil at this critical time is criminal, and a violation of the wasteful practice section. It follows that the only thing to do is to use it, By eorHmeal, we do not mean corn four. but the yellow or white meals.
 If you have the idea that it should not be eaten in hot weather. disapuse your mind of it. If that were true, low do you account for the fact that, in the south where it is warm all the veal around, they use eornmeai daily ? IL is in every way as patriotic privi- lege for every housewife to use corn- meal daily for the next six weeks as 1t is for her to knit. make surgical dress ings, or buy thrift stamps, and your response to this appeal is expected to be equally hearty.
