STATE AND EDUCATION

In the United States, the State
has assumed the responsibility for
educating the people within its Dor
ders. The Federal Government offers
information and services of great
value, but the right of the State to
conduct the educational function re-
mains unimpaired. II Is up to the
State authorities everywhere to see
that they carry out the duties
which are entrusted to them under
this system of Government. When
the State has fallen down, the Fed
oral Government must take REMEDIAL
steps.
Admittedly. the State authorities
are best acquainted with conditions
within their own commonwealth and
with the sentiment OF their own peo'
pie, They know what should be done.
In practice. how does this princi-
pie work out? Does the State al
ways have a properly balanced edu-
cational system? Is the right kind of
emphasis laid upon physical educa'
ton? The war has opened our eyes
to health conditions which we ignor.
ed a few years ago. We had been
told TO watch the health of American
school children, for alarming symp.
toms. reported everywhere, showed
that the National average was none
too high But what has been done?
Only small number of State have
enacted measures which, in the be.
lief of educational experts, doctors
and others qualified by training and
study to express an opinion. go to
the heart of the trouble and provide
for real physical education. What
are, some of the essential principles
of well-developed system? obvious

study, recreation. and rest; he or
she needs balanced rations, and
should be instructed in sanitation.
The care of the teeth and the feet
in fact. of every part of the body
is something which has not yet been
learned by every American school
boy and girl.
Unless community has taken
direct and drastic steps to safer
guard its healthy children and to
bring its subnormal boys and girls
back into condition, by a measure
especially drawn for that purpose. it
is quite likely that some, if not
most. of the important elements
enumerated above have been neg
lected.
Individual citizens must recognize
their fduty in this connection by
bringing their own influence tc

were born in the year Hoke Smith
took the world by the tail. The first

Of Hoke Smith upon which We were
raised and subsequent years of warm
superstitious worship of the great
god-politican very naturally kept us
in state of constant evaporation.
And now we can get down to a little
straight talk.
Senator Smith is milking the moon
when he comes back to Georgia and
attempts to introduce himself in the
new guise of mild reservationist"
as related to the peace treaty. The
people of Georgia are not going to
swallow the stuff. 1t SO happens that
