PATRIOTISM IN
Time OF PEACE
URGED BY HAYES
Consider Only Country's Wei
fare, He Appeals-Predicts
G.. 0. P. Victory.

BOSTON. Mass, Aug. 2s.-A ringing
call for patriotism during the trials OF
the early area of peace, the same
whole-souled, magnificent patriotism
shown during time of war, was made
by Chairman Will H. Hays of the Re-
publican national committee. speak
ing at big rally of Republicans at
Norumbega park today. Mr.. Hays de-
clared that at present there is no
time for petty carping and criticism,
and he urged his hearers to face the
problems of the country fearlessly and
periodically, with only the country's
welfare at heart.
The speaker predicted a sweeping
victory by the Republican party at
the coming election and expressed the
conviction that the people everywhere
are looking to the Republican party
as the country's only means of saliva
ton for the meeting of the intricate
problems now confronting the nation.
An incessant downpour of rain did
not dampen the ardor of 1000 of the
faithful who were at the park to hear
Mr.. Hays and other noted Republican
speakers. When Mr.. Hays arrived at
the park he was greeted with applause,
and this applause was renewed when
he mounted the speakers rostrum.
Pleads for Patriotism
After lauding Governor Coolidge of
Massachusetts, and urging his re-elec-
ton, Mr.. Hays said in part.
Il plead for the patriotism in peace
as we'll as in war. insist that we as
Americans haven't merely that pa
triotism born of eXtremties, which
burns in the souls of men only when
their country is in danger, but the
patriotism of good citizenship, at are
fireside. the pillow, the mart in low
places and in high places. in season
an dout of season let us have the pa
triotism, which moves men to make
their country's welfare their own
business and in prosaic times of peace
interest themselves intelligently in
the practical politics of their communi-
ty. Good government is possible in
no other way.
Il have an abiding faith that there
will be an awakened sense of civic
duty as one of the by-products of this
war. Hundreds of thousands of men
and women, who had no inclination,
and thought they had not time, to take
the slightest interest in their govern
ment, arose in the most splendid spirit
and unselfishly carried the burden of
the war work.
Wants Interest Kept Up
eff some small part of the same in
terest in their country can be main
tanned. some small part of the time
they have been giving is still given by
them in thought and action to the bust
mes of their country, it will bring the
situation an impetus for untold good
Most earnestly I urge that this great
new value. this big national asset
which has lately been developed. shall
not be lost. l urge that this army OF
men and Women who have been the
splendid war workers in every corner
of the country. now realize that they
have a duty in peace, as we'll as in
war; that their country needs their
continuing interest, and this continu
ing interest they owe to their coun
try's welfare"

QUALITIES OF GOOD
TEACHER NAMED BY
JAMESL. M'bR|EN

THE essential qualities of success
full teacher are appreciation of work,
character, prudent conduct. scholar
ship, professional training, inspiration,
patience, self control, common sense
and faith in boys and girls, SAID
James L. McBrien Of Washington, u
c., a member of the special bureau
on education, in discussing his sub
ject THE Ideal Teacher" before the
institute Thursday morning.
He said all teachers cannot be ideal
but that it is the duty of every teacher
to make himself successful and when
he is successful he has become as
near ideal as any teacher since the
greatest of all, Jesus Christ.
"Often find that some teachers find
1t embarrassing to be teachers. PEG
pie have way of saying that they
can always tell a teacher when they
see them, feel that it would be a
honor to be a successful teacher"

Self and Environment,

There are just two classes of peo-

mined by the circumstances with
which they are associated" said Presi-
dent Elmer Bryan of Colgate univers-
ity In his morning lecture before the
Wayne County Teachers institute
Thursday.
These two classes of people prac-
tically take these mate theories to be
