ONLY SMILES ON
BRIDES Is ONCE
HAWAIIAN STYLE

Brides clad in little but smiles,
carrying their trousseau under
their arms as they walked to
church to be wed, were not unc0m-
mon sights in Hawaii before the
missionaries impaired the more
conventional ideas of dressing, ac-
cording TO records submitted to the
directors of the nation wide cam
paign of the Episcopal church. The
Hawaiians nov follow American
styles in clothes and eagerly adopt
all phases of civilization. Because
of Hawaii's wonderful progress
along various lines she is regarded
as an especially fruitful field for
the work of the nationwide cam
paign to extend the Episcopal
church's ctiVities-misions, relig-
ious education and social service.
1t is on record that while the
missionary at Kohala, Hawaii. was
performing the marriage ceremony
for six couples one day, one of the
brides failed to appear. In answer
to the missionary's inquiry as to
her whereabouts, the bridegroom
replied without embarrassment:
oh, she's at the door putting on
her dress"
Native Hawaiians wore very few
clothes-somettmes none at all,

AMERICA TO Be
WORLD LEADER
EDUCATION
Bureau of Education Department
OF Interior, Comments Con-
corning Situation.

VIII the United States help build
up the civilization of the future by
opening wide the doors of her col
leges and universities to students
from all over the world?
Can Germany reestabiish her
educational prestige and draw stu
dents to her, first from the near
east, and later from other coun-
tries against whom she fought in
the war?
Is America to assume the edu-
cational leadership to which her
new responsibilities call her?
These questions are asked by the
bureau of education, department o.
the interior, in a special article in
School Life. IN official publication
Of the bureau
In a letter toNcoIlege and univer-
sity officers in this country the
commissioner of education writes:
THE higher educational institu-
lions OF western Europe have been
prSSGrated by the war Large num-
yJoers of the leading scientists and
of the younger men whosE scien-
tific careers were just beginning
have been killed Because the in
tellectual resources of the United
States have not been similarly
drained, the western nations are
locking to the United States to as
sumo the responsibilities of lead
ership in education and in science
That the colleges and universities
of the United States appreciate
these responsibilities and are en-
deaVoring to meet them is evil
denced by the various movements
that have been undertaken to pro
mote closer educational relations
between this country and the west
ern allies.
- Expects to Regain.
Apparentiy Germany expects to
regain the influence which she for
merly exerted over foreign nations
by means of her universities, tech
nical schools and scientific insi-
tutes This Office is informed that
efforts have already been made by
German educational institutions to
recover their clientele of foreign
students, especially from the coun-
tries in the near east adjacent to
or contiguous to Germany. There
is. of course, no imme diate pros
pect that she could make a sue
cessful appeal to the students Of
Great Britain, France or Italy
Students and young scientists in
Czech-SIoyakia, Jugo-Slavia. Rus
STA, Rumania and western Asia
are much more likely to be drawn
to German universities and to
technical schools. Germany is near
and they know about it. The cost
Of living is lower than in some of
the remoter countries, especially
the United STATES Nevertheless, il
Is believed that students from these
countries would gladly come to the
United States il they were familiar
with its educational opportunities,
and particularly if they could be
assured of sufficient means to com
plete their education. Evidently,
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1919-10-03

1t is desirable that the tide of stu
dents should be turned this way
rather than to Germany Moreover
the countries themselves need as
sistance. To render this is part OF
the responsibility involved in our
new position Of leadership.
The state department suggests,
and this office cordially endorses
its suggestion, that the college Of
ficers Of the country give this
problem their attention II they
are generally disposed TO eneouT-
age the coming of students from
these countries by means of schol-
arships or special provisions fo-
self-help. their offerings can be re-
ported to the bureau of education,
transmitted to the state depart
ment, and through the agents OF
that department brought to the at
tention of educational authorities

In this connection the bureau of
education is revising the bulletin
