GERMAN EDUCATION
LARGELY MISTAKEN
However, DR.. odum Says Good
Should Not Be Discarded
Because It Is German.

Specifying the mistakes in German
educationS blending their correction
with the good points in that education
and boiling it all into a reconstruction
era in American spiritual and popular
education is the theme of Dean II, W.
Odum, Phi. D., Emory university, who
is in Memphis Tuesday to address the
educational association Of the Methodist
Episcopal church, South.
The association convenes with SER
vices Tuesday night at the First Meth
odist church, and the sessions Wednes-
day and Thursday will be held at the
Hotel Chisca.
Perhaps the one topic more than any
other single large topic which is now
entertaining the attention of world edu-
lis the problem of readjustment after
the war. That Is not just a readjust-
ment of words, but a readiustment OF
principles, methods, organization to the
new age in spirit and truth.
mo other system Of education has
typified so great an influence of the
past or so great a series OF blunders as
the German education. Therefore II
we, in the reorganization of life and
education after the war are willing to
go down deep into the fundamentals of
the mistakes of German education, we
can perform very large and spectre
service at this time.
But there is danger that in our
eagerness to discard ali things German
and to avoid mistakes made by them
and by us through them, that we over
look the hard specific tasks OF develop
ing our schools and educational policies
to satisfy the great demand of the peo-
pie today. This Is great day for the
development of spiritual education In
which our churches and schools stand
ing for spiritual ministry Of the peo-
Pile and for democratic social service,
may contribute largely to the newer
freedom"
Dr. Odum will open the session Tues
day night with his address on Ger
man Educa ton and the War" His ad-
dress, with the devotional exercises
and the appointment Of committees will
consume the evening.
The association Is composed Of about
81 educational bodies of Southern
Methodism and As other institutions In
the denomination and an attendance OF
more than 125 is expected Practically
all the delegates win be from the prom
irent schools and churches in the South,
The general topic, Christian Educa-
ton" will be discussed Wednesday
morning, beginning az 0 o'clock, in the
banquet hall at the Hotel Chisca. 1t
will be discussed by President W, p.
Few, LII. D., Trinity college President
J. II. Reynolds, IL. D., Hendrix COL

Dvina. An American patrol Sunday
encountered superior numbers of the
enemy in the woods near Tulgas and
the patrol was engaged several min

Americans lost five men killed.

way was bombarded for an hour on the
same day with little damage. The
American light and heavy artillery re-
piled. The airplane observers reported
considerable activity at this time be-
