The State Normal Training school
will begin work for the summer ses-
sion Monday, June 3Oth at nine
o'clock. Children should be. on hand

# The summer school for the children
is planned to run as a vacation school.
The activities to be stressed are play,
gardening, manual training, domestic
science, hand-work, storytelling,
dramatization, music, and physical ed
ucation. However, classes will be car
ried in the regular subjects, and #

the summer session will afford oppor-
tunity to catch Up with the work. n
addition, the children who attend sum-
mer school will get 4 start that may
enable those Of Unusual ability to nd
vance an extra half or whole grade
next year. It is the plan to promote
children on merit when they are ready

4 to enter in the fall be enrolled in the
beginning class to assure rapid prog
ress the next regular term. fs5
The vacation school movement has
( become so widespread and has so
many commercial able features that
children should be encouraged to take
advantage Of it.. Children learn more
easily IL no long vacation periods oc-
i cur. between sessions. In addition,
regularity and supervision Of play and
u recreation activities are conducive to
q better physical condition than when
children are left to their own devices
the whole summer through. Modern
hygiene stresses the forming and
/ maintaining Of habits OF regularity Of
play, work, eating and sleep:

The Peace Treaty and the Politicians.

The Peace Treaty and the Politicians.
The affairs of the nations at
war have moved up rapidly and
changed with kaleidoscope be-
wilderment in the past three
weeks.
The peace treaty was signed
at 3:15 p. m. on June % by the
German delegates, and a few
days afterward the German ma
tional assembly ratified their &C
ton, then the blockade of all
German ports was raised, and
the wheels of commerce have be-
gun to revolve among the ma
tons formerly at war.
President Wilson set sail for
the United States and safely ar
rived on home soil, where he was
accorded a grand and most cor
dial reception in honor of his en-
inent world service. And now
he is again at the helm of nation
al affairs, and, after reporting
the terms of the treaty of peace
and explaining the League of
Nations to Congress, he is to tour
the States and explain its opera
ton and intention to the people.
There are in Congress and in
the country at large pettifogging
politicians, Ia few Democrats and
and quite a number of Republi-
cans), who profess to see in the
League of Nations a danger to
America and American institu-
tons. Also a few honest and
conservative people are uneasy
and alarmed at this new depar-
ture from our established nation
al policy.
The great bulk Of the common
people, however, approve all the
tr.clc.ssfulfs ra.asns .sodisIaua. ana
President has done.
To satisfy and calm these diff
ferent elements in the nation the
President has determined to lay
the whole matter before the PEG.
pie and let them decide the issue.
Before starting on his trip over
the country, however, the Presi
dent has decided to invite al
Senators and Representative
who are opposed to the League
to a conference at the Whit'
House with him, and he propose
to answer all of their inquire
about the matter fully AM
freely.
In another column we publish
an account of the manner tn
president is proceeding in hi
conference with Congressme
and Senators about the treaty o
peace and the League of Nations
This conference it is hoped wi
go far towards satisfying man
of those honestly opposed to tn
presidents policy about this mai
ter; but, be this as it may, h
will make his tour of the countr
in the interest of his policy, an
the indications are that three
fourths. of the common peopl
are heart and soul with him an
it is only a question of time whe
