Newspapers in Schools.

Reading of the daily newspa pers is to be
made part of the studies of the classes at West
Point military academy. The notion that young
people attending school should be isolated from
the world is losing the hold it once had Know
ing what is Transporting in the world is not
going to harm any young man or woman.
The newspaper is the daily history of the
world. While it may contain news that is not
the most cheering, still it carries the truth, and
the truth is what the growing mind should be
filed with. The character of the American
daily newspaper is improving, which is another
why it should be more closely studied by
the people.
Educators are coming gradually to the belief
that young people, beginning at high school
age, ought to keep abreast of current events.
The student is fed up past history, under
present methods of instruction, but he is al
lowed to follow his own bent when it comes to
following current day happenings. The result
is that the average young person in high school
or college neglects vital part of his educa-
ton
lit would be long step in the improvement
of the maturing American mind if the daily
newspaper were made part of the regular
study in every high school and college in the
United States.
The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1921-11-29
On Being Cheerful.

In America cheerfulness has long been rec
ognized as characteristic trait If any one
ever asked why this is so, the answer would
probably be that there is more in this country
to promote cheerfulness than there is else
where in the world. With what we have
garded as happier circumstances to live under
than exist in the old world, with the struggle
of life easier, with less class discrimination
and oppression, with widespread comfort and
the expectations of wealth universal with vast
natural resources and 4 pleasing land, why
shouldn't Americans be cheerful? An English
essayist has advanced different theory. He
maintains Americans force themselves to be
cheerful because they have not the strength
of mind to support the miseries of the world.
He writes:
Because the Americans are a nervous peo-
pie, easily cast down, they will always have to
be bright and cheerful and practice smiling
outwardy so they can smile inwardy They
have method of living always up to their own
story with wonderful American innocence"
It is not known whether this is compli-
ment or dispraise; but who cares? If gloom
and pessimism make it easier to support the
mseries of the world, the fact is yet to be
demonstrated. With all its good fortune,
America has borne a pretty fair share of this
worlds burdens. It's cheerfulness is not of the
type which refuses to recognize that anything
can be wrong enough to need righting. Nor
is it due to moral cowardice

Seeds of Misunderstanding.

German political writer's express sympathy
for Japan in the Washington conference and
suggest that IL the island kingdom should be
deprived of some of its spheres Of influence
new community OF interests comprising Teu-
tons, Slavs and the yellow races may be
evoived-meaning, of course. Germany, Russia
and Japan -
That the German editorial writer's should
betray an inpatience with the Washington con-
ference is no more than human. It is one OF the
inevitable fruits of which the isolation to which
the end of the war. and the consequent settle
ments, have brought that country. But the
prophecy to which the German writers give
voice is significant 1t is the echo OF profess
sional diplornacy-a mischievious speculation
on future events which European statesman
ship and It's mouthpiecee, the political writer's
have cultivated for many years.
The seeds of misunderstanding out of which
the world war grew were sown by the profess
sional diplomatists and their never falling hand
maidens, the chauvinistic political scribes. Both
it must be recognized, were byproducts of
secrecy. Neither can survive open-handed
diplomacy, which, we believe, is to accompany
any permanent conclusions of the Washington
conference.
