The White House,
Washington, July 81. 1919
My dear Mr.. Secretary:
[ am pleased to know that despite
the unusual burdens imposed upon
our people by the war. they have
maintained their schools and other
agencies of education so nearly at
their normal efficiency. That this
should be continued throughout the
war and that, in so far as the draft
law will permit, there should be no
falling off in attendance in elemen-
tary schools, high schools or col
leees is a matter of the very greatest
Importance, affecting both our siren
9Th in war and our national welfare
and efficiency when the war is OF.
So long as the war continues there
will be constant need of very large
numbers of men and women of the
highest and most thorough training
| for war service in many lines. After
the war there will be urgent need
not only for trained leadership in all
| lines of industrial, commercial, so
iciaI and civic life, but for a very
| high average of intelligence and pre-
marathon on the part of all the peo-
|ple. would therefore urge that the
people continue to give generous sup
mort to their schools of all grades and
that the schools adjust themselves as
wisely as possible to the new condl-
lions to the end that no boy or girl
shall have less opportunity for educa-
ton because of the war, and that the
Nation may be strengthened as 1t can
only be through the right education
of all it's people. l approve most
heartily your plans for making thru
the Bureau of Education a compre-
hensive campaign for the support OF
the schools and for the maintenance
of attendance upon them, and trust
that you may have the cooperation
| in this work of the American Council
| of Education.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON.
Hon. Franklin IL. Lane,
Secretary of the Interior.

Endorsed By The Whole
American Defense Society

Immediately after reviewing The
Kaiser, The Beast of Berlin" at its
premier in New York recently, the
American Defense Society, a national
Denomination of several hundred thou
Island members, through its executive
i~=----.st4~~. saye fhe-2 enhotonlay its
hearty endorsement. The Kaiser,
The Beast of Berlin, will be shown
Tomorrow night for the first time at
the Grand Opera House.
In commenting on The Kaiser,
one member of the executive commit
| tee had the following to say:
Here is a picture that should do
more to instill true patriotic spirit
| in those who view it than any other
l have yet seen. Instead of present
ing the usual gruesome battle scenes
the film deals directly with kaiser
ism and presents historical facts
about the demon who has set the
world afire by his determination to
force kultur upon the earth.
The picture contains many
scenes that give one that true Amer
lean, bulldog lighting spirit. Vari-
Gus incidents will cause the most
composed of veterans to hiss and
shout at the various screen imperso-
majors
THE audience of which l was a
member, cheered itself hoarse during
the course of the picture. The Kai-
ser, which Mr.. Julian impersonated
wonderfully WELL. was Kissed repeat
eddy. I am pleased to say that The
Kaiser is one of those inspiring, pa
triotic super-pictures which deserves
the greatest reception possible by
the American public. ADV.

August 24th--Registration in This
County Will be at Court House.
Washington, Aug. 14-Registra-
ton on Saturday. August "a, of all
youths who have reached the age of
q since the second registration last
June, was ordered today by Provost
Marshal General Crowder under a
proclamation by the President.
The purpose is to add quickly to
the almost exhausted Glass 1 to meet
the army draft calls in September.
About 10000 young men will
register Most of them will qualify
/ for Glass l and, therefore. probably
will join the army within month
after their names are recorded.
| Telegraphic orders to local au-
! thorities to arrange for the registra-
! ton have already been distributed.
President Wilson's proclamation ex-
cepts the territories of Alaska, Ha-
wall and Porto Rico from the regis
tration temporarily, but a later day
will be fixed for these. Only men in
! the armed service are exempted from
! registration.
| 1t was pointed out at the Provost
| Marshal Generals office that this reg
iistration would be entirely distinct
from the registration that will be
necessary shortly when the draft
/ ages are extended, and it also was
announced that the suggested date.
September 5. would not be the day
! for the registration of men from Is
to AS, even if Congress passes the
| bill in time, because several of the
! largest States in the Union hold pri-
mary elections on that date.
The Provost Marshal has no inten-
ton. it was said, of creating registra-
ton dates for men reaching p thru
out the year, but the present regis
tration was made necessary by the
approaching deficiency of manpower.
The local board for this county has
! decided to hold the registration for
all districts of the county at the
Court House, Instead of various dis
! tricts, so that the young men who
/ have reached the age of Fl since
June must report here and register.

that the world may be a better place
for Gods children to live.
Very sincerely yours,
