Education Week
 Being Observed
(continued from last week.

The theme of American Edu- cation Week this year is "Edu- cation for strong America What do we cherish for a Strong America" A rich soil for each generation to use and pass on to those who come after. A strong people with vigorous bodies, alert minds, great spirits. A useful job for everyone and everyone want ing useful work. A constant recog nition of the rights of other peoples, A gro wing faith in demo- sracy with a high sense of duty to its ideals.
 Democracy exalts the indivi- dual as a part of the great hu- man brotherhood. In a demo- sracy, responsibilities go with rights. This IS true of the homes, the ideal of universal education part of our national heritage. The Schoolhouse, like the flag, IS a symbol of the democratic way of life. The American school system is teaching thirty million young people the fundamentals of democracy-how to study, to acquire facts, to think for them selves, to decide issues by peace ful means and majority rule, to give and take, to be tolerant of other peoples ideals and cus- toms, to appreciate basic human values, to assume responisibili- ties for others. Schools are the training ground of democratic citizenship.
 Family life made America great. Since the pioneer days many changes have come over the American family. It has few CT children. It has more diyorces. It is mobile, less rooted to a particular place. More wo- men work outside the family cir ele. Despite these changes, good homes are as much wanted, pro- bably as often found, and cer- tainly as much needed as ever. "r Every home needs an adequate income. Under-privileged, half starved family life cannot be en- nChed. But money itself cannot enrich a home. It takes good living, kind words, helpful deeds, Sympathetic understanding, faith and love to enrich family life. The school is an expansion of the home, a group of families work lng together to provide better opportunities for their children. Enrich school life and you enrich family life.

DUTY ON CRAB MEAT
GOING UP SEPTEMBER q

The Tariff Commission announces
that the President has approved its
report on the differences in costs OF
production of canned and fresh crab
meat in the United States and in the
principal competing country. and
has issued a proclamation inereas-
ing the duty from IS percent ad
valorem to go percent ad Yalorem
on canned crab meat, TO become eff
fective on September 21, 1911.
For the five years ended 1889 the
United States consumption of all
crab meat averaged 1872 million
pounds annually. of which 43 per
cent was fresh crab meat produced
entirely in the United States and s.
percent was canned crab meat. OF
the consumption of canned meat, 50
percent was imported and 5 percent
domestic.
United States imports of canned
crab meat are almost entirely from
Japan and the Soviet Union. During
the ten years ended 1910 annual
imports for consumption ranged
from IA million pounds in 1884 to

metal for use in the national de
Tense effort.
The Navy, by law, is required &c
dispose Of scarp material by COMPETE
tive biding, and no exception will
be made for aluminium to productive
use.
Navy Department officials also
pointed out that naval activities
were restrained by law from com
plying with requests of patriotic or
CARNATIONS to donate their scrap al
minimum to local civilian defense
units
Any material not transferred to
another department of the govern
ment, or donated to a legal bene-
fieiary, must by law be disposed of
by sale to the highest bidder. Tn
authorized donations of any sort are
forbidden by Naval regulations.
It's not very widely known, but
reasonably large-seale training in
civilian gas defense has recently
been accomplished in the Pacific
Northwest. Sponsor of the program
is the United tSates Navy. Civilians
who have undergone the brief train
ing are some I2,827 workers en-
ployed by tn. government at the Pu-
get Sound Navy Yard So, too have
269l officers and men of Uncle
Sans Navy who have been or are
stationed at the Navy Yard.
Nobody, at any known time. ex-
poets an air attack to strike Brem-
erton, where the Navy Yard is 10
Gated. Nobody, equally, knows whe-
Their gas would be employed in case
such a thing happened. But if an
attack, which is alphabetically pos
sible, did occur. and if gas We're en-
ployed-well, the 1900 odd en-
ployees at the Navy Yard would
know what to do. And that's what
the Navy wants to be sure of.
