lies in education. This was the theme
Of today's morning session of the
National Education association. Rep
resentatives of organized labor, in
dustry and commerce, agriculture, the
home and the war education board
urged the teaching of lessons of
loyalty, thrift and conservation.
The burden of the past of Ameri-
c%anization was placed upon the edu-
Gators of the country, but the support
of their various interests was pledged
un.eservedly by the speakers. The
keynote of the meeting was sounded
by John II. Puelicher, Milwaukee,
governor director of savings of the
he said, "If there be any fault in the
foreign born not becoming thorough
Americans and in keeping up their
foreign languages and customs. the
fault is not theirs; it is ours" Mr..
Puelicher spoke eloquently on the
need of bringing every individual
American to a thorough recognition
of his duty as al American citizen.
A message from Henry Sterling,

hearted support of the American
Federation of Labor in all efforts OF
the National Education association to
bring about more widespread oppor-
tunities for education for all the
! children of America. Mr.. Sterling
cited ten resolutions favoring I'd,
vanccd educational legislation adopted
by the federation during the last
thirty-one years, and he told of the
federation's support in a resolution

the federation to aid in the passage
Of the Towner bill, for a secretary OF
education in the presidents cabinet
Miss Ella S. Stewart, president OF
the department OF school patrons, N
tative of American homes, and called
attention to the fact that the school
was the fundamental influence for
right thinking and Americanism
among American children.
The meeting was opened by com
munity singing on the part of the as
sembled teachers. Miss M. Teresa
Finn, st. Louis. led the exercises.
"The PrussianiZation of the public

The separate skirt is always with
us and this veal it m in many new
designs which are more attractive
than the old white duck skirts of long
ago. Because skirts are popular and
a necessity in the smart woman's
wardrobe is no reason for them be-
coming expensive. Many attractive
skirts may be bought with a lean
purse this veal and they are a par
ticularly good investment when one
realizes that they nay be worn at any
hour of the day and upon any occa-
sion. With a tailored blouse they are
the most practical thing for sports
wear and with a dainty Russian
blouse they make an attractive and
cool frock for the informal summe
hotel dances.
This skirt is cross barred wolfe with
an embroidered dot. The gathered
yoke is made of plain wolfe. Two in
verified tucks m pockets form a trim
ming. The blouse in all its frilly white
ness with a touch Of blue edging the
frills is also for a lean purse and with
a few such inexpensive skirts and
blouses any woman a look WELL
dressed and cool upon any occasion
that the summer days may bring. .
The choice Of a hat to wear with
such costumes may rest with the in
dividual. Some prefer the straight
sailor, others large floppy garden hats
and still others silk and satin sport
hats in delicate colors. 1t is another
good feature of the white outfit thai
the, hat is easily chosen.
