woodrow Wilson, when president,
addressed an exhortation to the schools
Ito increase materially the time and at
tention devoted to instruction bear
ing directly on the problems Of COM
immunity and national life"
In many schools more time is being
devoted to these subjects, but great
number Of teachers did not even hear
of the presidents suggestion. Those
who are too busy with school work TO
become interested in the things real
men and women are interested in and
are talking about.
William McAndrew, writing for 1.-THE
Worlds Work" says that just as the
army regulations requires soldiers to
take the setting up exercises every day
so as to keep fit, teachers should be re-
quired to digest current thought, if
only for their own mental health.
We boast of our democratic govern
ment. School children are taught every
day that this is a great democracy. But
is 1t a democracy so long as the people
elect representatives and Immediately
forget them? Is it any wonder that
many statesmen become autocrats?

THE Citizen and the Press" said:

freedom" So it Is, II the people take
advantage Of the opportunity it offers.

covery in the Arctic may prove as great

Door Policy" may have more far
reaching effect than the Monroe doc
trine, and that the people themselves
have the power to bring about world
disarmament?
No soldier who could not find time
for setting up exercises would remain
long in the army. No teacher who has
no time for regular rations of public
opinion, gathered by trained editors"
has any place in the public school sys-
tenn of this country. In the words Of
Prof. McAndrew, Every teacher needs
to be held to an account for purpose
and an output--viz: American citi-
zens."

MEXICAN PRESIDENT
BUILT UP COUNTRY
First Year of General obregon's Ad-
ministration Was Marked by
Untiring Reconstruction.

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 3.-The first
year Of General A1varo obregon's ad-
ADMINISTRATION as president. which ends
November 80. has been one essentially
Of reconstruction and reorganization.
He became the head of a republic torn
and worn by revolution, split by fac
tionaI strife, it's finances a wreck and
its rehabilitation an almost super

A new cabinet post, secretary Of edu-
cation. has been added during the year,
and its head, Jose yasconcelos, has
been promised adequate financial
means to carry out an ambitious pro-
gram of education which President
Obregon says is the nations greatest
problem.
The federal-owned railroads have
been completely reorganized in the
managerial departments. and some pro-
gress is being made toward their re-
habilitation. Rolling stock has been
acquired and an alarming port con-
gestion which threatened bankruptcy
to many interior merchants who We're
unable to obtain shipments of goods,
has been appreciably relieved.
The agrarian question still vexes,
although the administration claims
that its program in regard to land
is on the road to completion. Under
the direction OF the national agrarian
commission several hundred thousand
acres of land have been appropriated
from the large haciendas and deIiv-
cred to the peasants. Protests have
flowed into government offices here
and charge of bald confiscation have
been openly made.
The Oregon government has been
charged with a trend toward radical
ism. Various state government, nota-
bly, those of Vera Cruz and Puebla,
have enacted laws that are regarded

criminal proclivities came from defec-
tive vision in childhood.

authority upon the Juvenile branch Of

President Obregon has been unable
to secure recognition of his govern
ment by the United States, Great Brit
ain and France. To many observers
this failure is the greatest deterrent to
stability and prosperity now confront
ing the chief executive. The United
States has said that the Mexican pres

action would be neither legal nor

Women Plan Battle

The Council of the General Fed
GRAFTON of Women's Clubs, which
met last month in Salt Lake City,
seemed to have it's collective mind
fixed upon the nationwide battle
against corrupt politics to the ex-
clusion of most other questions.
1t seems evident that a powerful
new army is being recruited among
the women of the nation for the
purpose of attacking the strong
holds of machine politics wherever
they may be found.
The Council took a strong stand
for separate department Of edu-
cation whose head should be a
member of the presidents cabinet.
1t also urged the reduction of arm
aments with the stipulation that a
considerable part of the money 80
saved should go to forward educa-
ton i'll the various fields.

Developing Physical vigor

There is another answer to the
question of how to rehabilitate our
people physically. 1t is being
worked out in our public schools
and applied there on a much larger
scale than many of us know.
According to this answer, the
right way to develop physical eff
fciency and vigor is by training
the children as it is done in other
countries which were found to have
fewer defective men thar we du-
ring the war. Our schools have
not given much attention to this
in the past save to encourage ath-
letics and contests in which only a
few participated. In European
countries, on the other hand, all
are given physical training, which
consists largely of play and games
with corrective gymnastics. In
addition to this, the laws of health
are taught and the children are re-
quired to practice them at all
times, which is another thing that
has been overlooked in America.
One Of the great, silent move
ments now going on in America is
the regeneration of our public
schools. Few understand how rap
idly it is going on or how different
the new school is from that of a
few years ago. And one Of the
greatest differences lies in this new
type of universal physical training
which is everywhere being intro.
duced.

only just that this fact be recog-

to one of the highest stations that
can be attained in our great nation
in spite Of handicaps that would
have kept down nearly any other

no breath of suspicion or ill-will

He served in the confederate
army in the great struggle of half
a century ago. Rellgiously he was
a devout Roman Catholic. These
things might have hindered other
men; but he was able to show us
that the true ideals of American

of whom is designated as the chief
Justice while the others hold the

of the noted author, Oliver Wen

eighty. The other two of this
aged trio are Associate Justice
