to preserve order and teachers impart.

: One wonders why the Brain Trust failed
to include some such scheme when It
planned the school at Greenbelt.
There would be undeniable advantages
In school-radio hook-up. 1t should
be comparatively easy to obtain high
quality instructors. Communities faced
with teacher shortage problem should
welcome it. But factors would arise
which many would consider disadvan-
tages Schooling would become imper-
sonal and standardized. And there
would be many detail problems such as
recitation and examinations which, ap-
parently, would have to be handled
under the conventional system.
Generally regarded primarily as a
medium of entertainment, radio broad
casting inevitably is means of instruc-
tion for the masses. Often it con-
sciously assumes the role of educator.
Those who guide the destiny of the
industry can hardly be expected to let
such a potent popular education chan
mel long remain classified merely as an
instrument to be resorted to In an
emergency.
And, to make even more interesting In
the class room Of the future, television
Is just around the corner!

DR.. John Franklin Jameson.

DR.. John Franklin Jameson appeared

BY natural endowment and tempera-
ment, he was to the historians profess
sion born. His career, then, seemed
matter of destiny. 1t reflected his in
herent impulse, his environment and
the experience of his childhood and
youth. If he ever made deliberate choice
Of it, he must have been guided, perhaps
controlled, by fate which planned and
pledged him to be exactly what he was
a mind and heart completely devoted
to the ~sservation of those traditions
without which civilization cannot sur
vive, let alone prosper.
Few men knew DR.. Jameson inti-
mately, but a great army OF students
were indebted to him for invaluable
assistance. He was, in effect, human
institution of presumptively inexhaust-
ible capacity for guidance and direction.
Profoundly skilled in his work, he had
at his fingertips innumerable keys to
unlock the past. 1t happened, too, that
they were pointers for the future. He
could anticipate events because he un-
derstood so well important events that
have been. Yet he did not speculate.
Rather, his method was rigidly scientific.
His learning was wide, deep, precise and
frankly conservative. II he were con-

for adventurous theory.
His philosophy of living, like his meth
Cd OF research, was definitely social.
DR.. Jameson was too busy in the service
OF others to produce many books of his
own composition. The half dozen vol
umes which he published, however, in
dicate the rewards he might have won
had, he been more selfish in the use
OF his materials, his time and his
strength. In the manner of Mr.. Chips,
he existed for his "children"-the
younger generation of seekers for the
chronicled truth His monuments will
be found in their achievements. The
files of the American Historical Review
and the reports of the Historical Manu-
scripts Commission are filled with mani
festation of his spirit. He may be said
to have re-created the division of manu-
scripts of the Library of Congress, he
was Henry Clay Folger's adviser in the
building of the Shakespeare Library and
he is entitled to vast credit for the sue
cess OF the Dictionary OF American Biog-
raphy.
But DR.. Jameson's particular distinc-
ton was the honor, the dignity, the
gentleness and the kindliness of his
genius. He was prince of scholars
and, as such, is assured OF everlasting
remembrance.

Radio Teaching.

A foretaste of what may be the COM
mon mode of education few decades
hence has been experienced this week
In Chicago. Due to an epidemic of
infantile paralysis schools were closed,
but education officials tried to impart
knowledge to the city's children through
radio classes.
Many agencies co-operated. News
papers published outlines of lessons for
the various grades. Teachers lectured
from six broadcasting stations during
nine f1fteen-minute periods. Telephone
queries from parents were answered by
other teachers.
Results can hardly be expected to be
satisfactory in stop-gap method de-
vised almost overnight to meet an emer-
gency. A well-thought- course, how
ever, with parents. teachers, radio COM
panies, newspapers and, above all, the
pupils, cooperating sincerely might
prove efficient.
Certainly 1t is not fantastic to imagine
a future school In which classes gather
before radio dials, with an adult present

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

at all, under such circumstances, was
due to two interesting factors:
l. Grass plants have great resistance.
q fashioned manures did possess
fertilizing value.
But the treatment was rather rough,
just to get a little extra fertility into
the SOIL
Many weed seeds came up in the
Spring along with scores OF toadstools.
These were the invariable accompani-
ments of all lawns treated by the favorite
old method
Some ten years ago 1t got bruited
around that many old-time ideas were
wrong.
The world accepted this idea with
relief. 1t was not only in line with
human nature. was psychological in
other words; above all 1t gave chance
for experimentation.
1t came to be the fashion to leave OF
the Winter covering.
1t was found that grass did pretty
we'll without it, thank you.
The years went by and many grass
plots, both public and private, both large
and small, began to look pretty seedy.
maybe the old idea of giving the lawn
fertilizer in late Autumn or early VIM
ter was a good thing after all
= X
Hence today we have complete re-
turn to the old sensible idea of some
fertility for lawns at this time, but not
to the extent of shading them from the
sunshine.
Grass is a plant which lives the year
around without any real dormant period,
such as the bulbs must have
To live right it must have something
to eat.
The more the average lawn maker re-
CARDS his lawn, the more he will realize,
if he is fair about it, that the fault
lies not in the stars, but in himself, that
1t is so poorly"
He has been starving it all these years
on the mistaken theory that grass ought
to brown and sere in the Winter.
1t is true that he remembers that in
Midwinter he had seen grass plots of
perfection.
These, he speculated. were achieved by
rare grasses or unusual soil conditions,
or through using only costly bent grass
seeds which required "acid SOIL"
He. an average lawn maker, could not
expect such results.
The fact that he did not get them
rather proved it. he thought
= X
But did it?
This Fall he Is going to fertiize his
grass and see what happens.
He is putting on plenty of bone meal
and sheep manure and watering it in
copiously, not just light sprinkle once
month, but real good watering every
other day.
He is going to forget that this is
Autumn. the prelude to Winter, and Just
remember that grass plants are growing
and need something to grow on.
He wants to see how this theory works
out. The latest advices from the ex-
perts is that it will do wonders for his
lawn.
Sunshine and fresh air are mighty,
even in Winter, or especially then
Food, whether for man, beast or plant,
is great requisite. 1t seems absurd
that he should ever have had to be
reminded of that.
Evening star., 1937-09-29

Modern grass making, having given
the knockout blow to the idea OF acid
soil, for time so prevalent, goes on to
boost proper fertilizing Of lawns In the
Autumn.
This does not mean covering the
grass with carpet Of COW manure, as
was done in the old days seemingly gone
beyond recall.
No, the strictly modern idea, as enun-
ciated by Government experimental sta
tions, is to use any general purpose
fertilizer, washing it in Immediately
with the hose, not waiting for rains.
The idea is to give the grass plants
something to live on all Winter.
There have been more erroneous ideas
about grass than about any other one
department of gardening, evidently.
Every one wants good lawn, and few
secure 1t. That is, they are never salts
fed.
THE grass is always greener in the
other fellows yard" Actually it all
ways looks better, mostly because of the
slant at which one sees 1t!
Almost any yard looks pretty good,
provided one is down on its level and
off to one side.
The acid test of a lawn, usually, is
to view it from an upstairs window.
Very few lawns look good from that
viewpoint
The now famous but exploded idea
that the way to have a good lawn is
to get the soil in mildly acid condition
and then use only grasses which prefer
such an earth happily has gone the way
of similar ideas.
There just isn't anything to it, except
in very special conditions, which do not
often prevail in an average home
grounds
The idea was to freeze out weeds.
which were said to prefer an alkaline
soil. Experiment stations have proved.
we believe, that many weeds like acid
soil. and some of these are the worst
in lawns.
Lawn makers are awakening to the
fact that grass being sun-loving plant
in most Of its varieties. mostly prefers
good mildly alkaline soil, as do most
plants
The number Of plants of all types
which like alkaline soils far outnumber
those which thrive best in really acid
soils.

lures labeled shady" always do better
in the sun.
We stumbled upon this by accident.
Wishing to plant a sunny portion of the
lawn, we found only a box Of shady"
mixture available.
1t did better than the regular mixture
used in the past.
In fact, the shady lawn grass mixture
did far better in the sun than it did in
the shade!
So there you are.
The question Of fertility, however, is
the interesting one.
Years ago every lawn maker thought
it necessary to cover the lawn with
fine spread of manure.
This not only gave the grass an un-
slightly and often malodorous covering.
but it made it look blanched in the
Spring. when the coat was removed

New Deal Fruits.

chairman JOhn Hamilton Of the Re-
publican National Committee, speaking
in the National Radio Forum, called at
tention to specific failures of the Roose-
velt New Deal. The production of con-
sumers' goods-the goods produced to be
sold the people here and abroad-was
less In this country in July, 1896, than
it was in July, 1895. The cost of goods
sold in the retail stores of the country
this year is nine per cent higher than
1t was year ago. although five per cent
more money is being expended in these
stores. The less production, the less
employment. The higher prices, the
less goods consumed.
These are realities any one can under
stand. Production has fallen off and
prices have gone higher. Mr.. Hamilton
cogently calls this "the more abundant
reversed" He attributes the falling off
in production to the blighting hand
which the New Dealers have placed on
private enterprise, to an effort on the
part of the administration to dominate
industry. Deadly disbursement, he
insists, has been visited by the New
Deal upon the effective enterprise of the
country.
These are not mere sounding phrases
used by the chairman of the Republican
National Committee; they are backed by
the facts he has assembled. He might
have said also that the New Dealers
have expended billions of dollars in
their effort to bring about "the more
abundant life and increased the public
debt, which is the debt of the people
in the last analysis, to s35 900, 900 900.
These fruits of the New Deal have a
bitter taste. In the hands of capable
opposition, with tenacious leadership,
much might be done with them. So
far, however, the Republicans have been
unable to capitalize on the mistakes
which have been made by the Presi-
dent and his administration. There
has been mass of criticism of the
President and his policies and his
methods. But these mistakes have not
been translated into opposition votes.
Mr.. Hamilton predicts a Republican
national gathering in the Spring of
next year for the purpose of setting
forth the cause OF the Republicans,
which he insists will be the cause of
the great mass of the people against
domination, particularly the domination
OF the people by the Government. 1t
may be that from this statement of the
Republican cause there will arise leader
ship about which the people will rally,
leadership which can make the mistakes
of the Roosevelt New Deal come alive
to the people. One great difficulty under
which the Republican party has labored
while Roosevelt has made mistakes
and run the country into mass of
debts the jealousy of party factions
and party leaders. If the projected con-
vention can reduce that swollen sore it
will have accomplished something.
Primarily, however, the real accom-
plishment of Republican national con-
vention will be statement of the issues
which the people can understand and
appreciate. With 1t must come real
leadership in opposition to the New
Dealers, who more and more clearly are
bent upon monopolistic control rather
than competitive enterprise-monop-
olistic control maintained in the end by
government.
