SUMMER COURSE FOR
MINISTER'S

The annual Summer School
for Ministers, which has been
held in the State for a number
of years, will be held this year
at the University of Maryland

z to IL, according to an announ-

having been held at the East

programs, new types of service
and new lines of ministry are
needed and it is in an effort to
find how these changing condi-
Itions may best be met that the
School is offered.
Each day will be divided into
seven parts with a prominent
persons leading discussions
and lecturing in each. The list
of speakers includes: DR..
Arthur e. Bennett, of the Adult
Education Bureau of Iowa;
DR.. H. F. Cottermen, College

Maryland; DR.. William Bur-
dick, and Miss e. Ruth CARRIER
of the Maryland Playground
Athletic League; DR.. H. J. Pat
terson, Of the University of
Maryland, who is assistant
dean of the School.
Anyone desiring further in
formation concerning the
School for Ministers may SCI
cure the same from either DR..
Patterson or DR.. Ellsworth.

MILITARY TRAINING IN SCHOOLS

The present system Of education, in which professional
patriots are allowed to glorify war by the use of biased history
text books and compulsory military, is largely responsible for
the continued existence of the fighting spirit throughout the
world, Dr.. William H. Fitzpatrick, professor of education at
Teachers College, Columbia University, declared in an address
in Milbank chapel at the college.
Declaring that war is not instructive with mans belief and
is kept alive only by "the inertia of custom, DR.. Fitzpatrick point
ed out that China is an excellent example of a nation that has
a positive distaste for settling arguments by combat. The so
called war instinct" Is merely a defensive mechanism, he add
ed, explaining that if war were instructive 1t would not be neces-
sary for nations to keep pacihsts and anttwar literature away
from it's soldiers in time of war.
"Those groups wishing to keep war alive are very sensi-
tive" he continued. "A1l the children are made to salute the
American flag. The history books depict the Monroe Doctrine
as al almost sacred thing. Pictures Of laying wreaths on I'M
known soldiers graves, pomp and glory of parades are stressed.
Our professional patriots watch the history books, using words
like redtbloodf and hemen', while coward is scorned."
Organizations like the Daughters of the American Revo1u-
tpn, Ku Klux Khan, the American Legion and the R. o. T. C. do
much to foster the war spirit, Dr.. Fitzpatrick declared. News
papers are also unwilling perpetrators through their featuring
of beligerent pictures as news interest, he added.
Asserting that there is on real value in military training
in schools, DR.. Fitzpatrick declared that the teaching of this
training was morally vicious" and not worth the money that
is yearly spent in its maintenance. The only reason for military
training is to build in the youth of the country a military mind
that will keep war alive, he added.-N. Y. Times, Dec. 4, 1881.
