The Psdareg1s's Diary

Another week has gone very hap
PLY. One bright spot wa the even
ing spent 1t the x-home. Mrs. K
is the mother Of . growing family,
several of whom attend my school.
She is a neat cheerful woman and I
noted that her children gave her the
anne respectful attention that helps
to make my work more pleasant in
the school room. While they cleared
away the dishes and washed them af-
ter supper. their mother and I sat in
the cozy living room and talked.
After a while she brought out q box
full Of photographs and showed me
the baby pictures Of her children.
When VIZ came to the one Of her old
est son, then 4 chubby lad in knee
pants, she surprised me By saying, Il
remember he wore this suit the hrst
day he went to school. And how I
cried as l watched him trudge down
the road!" "Cried!" I echoed.
"Yes," she said earnestly, II knew
that from then on, he would not be
mine as he had been before. For five
days a week he would be wholly under
the influence Of the teacher-a strang-
err to me-for eight years Of precious
childhood, he would be absorbing the
thoughts, ideals, even the character
of whomsoever had charge of the
school. How anxious l am to hear
who is to have the school each year,
you know-we seldom have the same
teacher two years in succession
wonder,-little diary-how many
mothers are as thoughtful of the flu
ture Of their children? And how
many teachers realize what a respon-
sibility is theirs? The words of Annie
May Henderson come to my mind lust
now:
eff you can mother countless hosts
Of children
Tho you never call a single one
your w
Ii you've compassion on weak hui
man nature
But for yourself keep always life's
stern rules,
If you can do this your country
needs you
Enlist as teachers in the public
schools"
Well-if they were my own children
I'D want that kind of teacher for them
! wonder if ! fulfill Mrs. KS require
ments?

"We maintain that education for
the responsibilities Of citizenship is
an increasingly pressing obligation on
the schools at this critical period OF
national and world affairs and to that
end education for citizenship must
fill a large place in the school pro-

graduate courses of the universities,

The AmericanizatiOn of Jim

Gas a boy-Jim is a type-a forlorn
one--who is found in all our schools
everywhere. IF the teacher be a
stickler for clustered hair, manicured
nails and the spick and span, Jims'
ilk is usually found inconspicuously
far back in the rear trenches. Here he
watches the little world Of his grade
wag on while he sits wondering and
alone. Ever and anon-more often
anon-he is whisked ito the limelight
Of publicity by receiving dishonorable
mention for being tardy. Jim's
home folks have never taught him the
unlimited possibilities for Americana
zation there are in a Seth Thomas or
a Big Ben. He comes to school with
his toes sticking out and his pride
drawn in. He gets a poor on his re-
port card because an Excellent calls
for ham and egg thinking-and Jim's
digestive apparatus works only on a
part time diet.
Jim feels down in his heart that
there is a screw loosse somewhere in
this education business. He has a va
que idea that it is not arithmetic nor
spelling that he must soak up in order
to be like the other fellows. This is
no place for another Sartor Resartus
but a trim suit, a full stomach, a
good bath, a congenial home, plus a
true-as-you-live teacher are the best
A~mericanizers. Give Jim all these and
watch him become Booth in Jack TIE
Giant Killer and Prince Charming in
Cinderella. In group exercises, he
confidently worms himself down into
the front row with little A~lgernon.
Now he brings a round red apple to
dainty little Miss Goldilocks down in
the front seat. When he is neatly
clothed, his neck washed below the
collar band and when his ego feels the
push of a. juicy steak, then does the
school become a place where he may
live the joyous life Of the best of them
and the broad way that leads to.Amer-
icanization."-Year Book Of Savanna

Human Elements in Civil Service.

The civil service commission is honest but
cld-fashioned, according to statement by Her,
bert D. Brown, chief OF the United States bureau
OF efficiency, in report to President Harding
Those who have watched the workings OF
government service will be inclined to agree
with Mr. Brown, if he means that 1t is Old
fashioned in certain methods OF operation. The
civil service commission is not oldfashioned in
its adherence to the principle that merit should
govern in the routine OF governmental admins
tration. that the rank and file Of government
employees in positions not requiring dctermin-
alton Of policy should be appointed and should
hold Office because of their ability to do the job
That is simply good business practice as much
so today as ever
True devotion to public service, however,
Goes not mean, as some misguided interpreters
of the civil service idea assume, that mere senior
ity should be the only test OF promotion or that
connection with the payroll, once established
should be terminab1e only by death. There
should be sufficient elasticity in the adnlnlstra-
ton Of the civil service to permit the recog-
milton Of true ability, initiative and energy; there
should be sufficient leeway to permit the DIS
charge OF workers who are indoent and careless,
who offend BY acts of omission rather than
commission, Who in slang terms, Soldier on the
Job"
The great difficulty in administering civil
service plan has been to have rules which safe
guard the employees against Sbuse by the appoint
ing authority but which do not permit the en-
ployes to abuse their own privilege by making
sinecure out Of their job. Man is not ma
chine and in whatever he does there must be
allowance for the human element

Germany Ready to Settle.

This is the las, day ior Germany to signify
ulI acceptance Of the London program for
reparations and according to news from Berlin,
the Reichstag will assent. This concurrence in
the arrangement is brought about by the promise
o. loan, to be hoated by the Morgan syndicate,
proceeds of which will tide the German govern
ment over the crisis and permit a relaxation OF
the tax burdens now borne by the German peo-
pie Discussion of the financial system OF the
German republic is idle at the moment 1t rests
on expedency. and depends chiefly on the ability
OF the government to issue unlimited paper cur
rency. An enormous internal debt has been so
created. which must be reduced before real
prosperity can be restored to the country. The
loan that is proposed, like the reparations pay
ments, is on the basis of gold marks, and as such
is due notice to the German people that their
debts must be settled in accordance with the
customs OF the world. Under the London ad-
justment. considerable part, in the present in
stance almost two-thrds, OF the reparation pay
ments is to be made in kind. This is relief to
the people to the extent that they are not re-
quired to provide the gold Immediately. but have
the chance to make payment through their in
dusry. France has assented to the plan for set
tement and its adoption will have great effect in
clearing UP the European situation.

The Harvest Of Humanity.

People in the towns visited by the Omaha
trade excursion could not but notice the fond
ness for children displayed by these business
men. Balloons, bells, whistles. gay-eolored
feathers pencils and souvenirs OF infinite va
rietv were showered on the boys and girls. Their
10Y at the music Of the band and their pleasure
over these triAing gifts was pleasant to see, even
though it took the mind of many man back to
his own little ones at home.
Toward the end of the weeks trip this home
sickness manifested itself in the sight of the
Omahans slipping their hand into that OF tiny
girl or boy and entering into confidential eonver-
Z sations about grades in school and whether they
would like some ice cream. Babies were kissed as
; If in the midst Of political campaign in which
these business men were running for office.
Four hundred miles from home, telephone
was installed in the train as it stood on side
: track. A direct wire to Omaha was connected
up. and long distance calls were put through as
easily and swiftly as if from one place in Omaha
to another That night more than fifty men
called their homes. Each one in the car heard
what the others were saying, and II was all about
The same-nothing of business affairs, but only
a little chat about home.
Omaha's trip to the country is not cold
commercial proposition neither is it one hilarious
outing as some may still believe. Undoubtedly
