THE OBSERVANCE OF NATIONAL
EDUCATIONAL WEEK ESSENTIAL

ciude-various states and localities from
emphasizing those features of educa-
tion which they may feel require par
ticular attention at this time. They
are suggested as topics upon which the
whole Nation can well unite. 1t is inn
possible for the national program to
include all local needs.
AS on former occasions, governors,
mayors and other executives will like
wise be invited to issue proclamations
and otherwise support this movement
on behalf of better schools. The news
papers and the press generally may be
counted on to continue their support
of the movement. 1t is a conservative
estimate that fully half the newspa-
pers of the country supported the cam
paign last year edtorially, not to men
tion stories without number that were
published on educational topics. The
Bufeau of Education has prepared for
this years campaign a leaflet entitled
Suggestions for the Observance Of
American Education Week." which
we trust will be helpful to our school
people in planning and making as ef-
fective as possible the observance of
Education Week. Among other things
this little leaflet sets out numbers of
concrete accomplishments that were
carried through in many localities last
year. 1t is hoped that these actual
achievements will inspire others with
the possibility of success in these and
other directions. At the present time
a large number of state superintend-
ents and state commissioners of edu-
cation have appointed special directors
or committees to plan the observance
of the week in their respective states.
These and other communications of
and inquiry seem to foretell
the greatest intensive effort yet made
to enlighten the people of the country
upon educational matters.

GREET GOVERNOR
w. S. HALEY WITH MULE

Senator w. S. Haley, who has beer
acting governor during the absence
from the state of the governor and
lieutenant governor returned home To
Terry Friday afternoon and received a
warm welcome from his old time
friends. +
The people of Terry knew nothing
of his coming until about the time No.
i8 on the Milwaukee was due. The
governor sent word to one of the cow
boys on his ranch to slip into town
about time of the arrival of No. I8
with saddle horse for him TO ride
out to his ranch. The boys at the
ranch put their heads together and de-
termined that as Bill was now COVER
nor, to them at least, they would have
to give him a sendoff fitting to his
new station in life. Word was passed
from one cowboy to another, and when
the train pulled in bearing Mr.. Haley
the program was all IN readiness.
AS the governor stepped from the
train everything looked quiet and Sc
rene as couple of cowboy friends
stepped up to him and offered to take
his grip and overcoat, but just for
moment look came into his face
which seemed to ask what the H.
but disappeared as one Of the boys
said "come on, governor; my car is
over there" Arriving at the car they
threw the baggage in, cranked up and
we're gone leaving Bill where he stood.
About this time the main bunch Of
the reception committee made their
appearance from behind the depot on
horseback and leading an old Mis-
souri, mule decked out with a McCel-
an saddle of the vintage of 1861.

:ow bell tied around his neck, who, on

BY John j. Tigert, u. S. Commission
of Education.

The Bureau of Education will coop
crate again this year in the observance
of American Education Week with the
American Legion and National Edu-
cation Association. This will be the
fourth consecutive year in which an eff
fort has been made to emphasize edu-
cation for week throughout the Ma
ton. Last years observance far ex-
ceeded in interest the previous efforts
and it is expected that this years
week will set still higher mark of
educational enthusiasm. II has been
decided to change the date of the week
from early in December to the latter
part of November. This was done
largely on the suggestion of the late
President Harding, who thought that
the former week was too ,saaeh tinged
with Christmas. We have had great
many requests from various organiza-
tions and individuals asking that the
week be changed. 1t has been decided,
therefore, by mutual agreement of the
organizations sponsoring the week,
that this year it shall be observed No
vember 1924, inclusive.
AS was the case last year, each day
in the week will be set aside as day
of stressing some particular phase of
education which is national in it's need
and significance. The days of the
week will be observed as follows Sun
day, November IS, For God and Coun-
try; Monday, November 10, American
Day; Tuesday, November
20, Patriotism Day; Wednesday, No
81, School and Teacher Day;
Thursday, November %, Illiteracy
Day; Friday, November 23, Communi-
ty Day; and Saturday, November "a,
Physical Education Day.
These suggested topics do not pre-
