Michigan's
Polar Bears
Growl Again

HATTIESBURG, MISS, June
10 (AoJ Americas renowned
Polar Bcars-the 339th Infantry
Regiment of the US. Army S
85th Division - are growing
again.
In a cOlorful ceremony at
Camp Shelby last week this dis
tinguished fighting unit from
the first World War which
earned its name for its period
of service in the vicinity Of
Archangel, Russia, was re-acti-
waited in the presence of many
of its old members.
A retired Army colonel from
Ionia, Mich, Joel r. Moore, who
served with the Polar Bears in
the first war, presented the new
unit with colors and bayonet
that will be retained as memen-
toes of the regiments rich his
torical past.
Stationed for a time at old
Camp Custer, the original regi-
ment of Polar Bears included
many Michigan soldiers.
Addressing the re-activated
unit, Col. Moore handed the trO-
pixies to Col Donald A. Stroth,
present commander, and said:
Here we are today, fighting
again on the side Of right and |
am fain to believe that among
civilians welding their efforts
to victory production a n d
among the valiant youth Of the
nation that comes the colors,
there exists a broader patriotism
than that Of 1918.

Leudership's Wise Decision

Leaders on both sides of the aisle
In Congress give every indication of
Immediately accepting the alterna-
tive presented by the President and
rushing into shape appropriate leg
islation designed to plug holes in the
cost of living ceiling. That is the i'm
portant thing now. It is important
in two respects: It retains the in
itiative in legislation in the Congress,
where it belongs, and it implies posi-
tive action toward curbing the cost
of living.
There are details regarding this
legislation which remain undecided.
the nature of which is reflected in
a difference of opinion between
House and Senate whether to enact
legislation prescribing the exact for
mulas by which ceilings are to be
placed on wages as well as farm
prices; whether to prescribe the
farm price formula and leave wage
stabilization-as he wants it left-to
the President, or whether to give the
President an additional grant of
pswer and direct that he exercise it
In fixing both farm and wage levels.
Fundamental principles would
argue for complete action by Con-
gress now, leaving to the executive
branch the application of the formu-
las, in respect both to farm prices
and wages, prescribed by Congress.
But this involves the practical con-
sideration whether it is possible for
Congress to resolve within itself the
issues which divide the various
"blocs" and to enact complete legis-
iation of this sort in time for it to
be effective. Certainly there is no
time now for long and protracted
debate.
For we are confronted with con-
dition which Is so serious to the
Nation, in it's domestic economy and
In it's ability successfully to fight the
war, that any open and continued
break between the President and
Congress over procedure In fighting
the flames of imitation would be al
most as disastrous as imitation itself.
Wise leadership will exercise all its
ingenuity to avoid that break.
The thought of the Presidents
assumption of dictatorial powers, to
the extent of repeating an act OF
Congress and substituting something
else by executive order. is repugnant
to all who believe in our form OF
government. But the President
himself has pointed out the path by
which this can be avoided. And that
is for Congress to function as a
National Legislature, acting in the
interest of no special group or we'll
organized minority, but acting solely
in the interests of the Nation as a
whole.

THIS AND THAT

again saw a cardinal in the bath. I
think it is safe to say they use 1t
regularly, don't you?"
This correspondent observations on
bird baths should interest all those
persons who have not been able to get
songsters to bathe in them.
Contrast is something the bird lover
seldom takes into account when pur-
chasing bath, but the birds always do,
BY nature they are wary. Deep in
every fiber of their being lies fear, the
natural fear of nature which helps keep
many small things alive.
When bright bird is posed against
pure white or cream background, it
is much more visible to the enemy.
In the past three years mankind has
come to understand this better than
ever before.
1t would not do, of course, to say that
the cardinal, or any other bird, says to
itself, Now, I would like to use that
bath, but it is pure white. and that would
No such argument goes on. 1t is not
necessary. The bird simply does not use
the bath. 1t goes elsewhere, and the
owner wonders why as many birds as he
desires do not come to his pleasant new
Offering.
Nor does it mean that pure white
baths are not to be made, purchased and
used. But if birds DO not come, the
thing to do is to wait until green algae
cover the surface. Do not scrub it off
Or take the large saucer off its pedes-
tai, and place it on the ground The
birds like this way, and the situation Is
better protection for them, blending
them with the good earth.
Large crockery saucers of various
colors make fine bird baths.
They may be deeper, too, than the
traditional inches so often recon-
mended.
There may be some chance, now and
then, of sparrow or other small bird
drowning, but in the main the songsters
use such saucers with perfect safety
1t is always good to have a stone in the
center, so that the water at some point
may not be more than an inch or two
deep.
There can be little doubt about the
cardinals bathing. They simply take
care not to be seen at it as much as
some other species
One of the best bird baths is a saucer
of some sort sunk in the ground, the
rim surrounded by a circle of small
stones. This is a favorite of that prime
bather, the song sparrow
The main point about bird bath, anc
one often forgotten, is to keep it filled
This admonition is more necessary ir
the fall than ever, since often there are
many dry days, with high winds which
tend to dry up the water.
A little regular attention to this detail
insures plenty of water at all times, add
ing both to the happiness of the bird.

A Course in UNDERSTANDING

The problem created by the grow
Ing demand for compulsory study of
American history in institutions of
higher learning in the United States
is not as easily solved as at first might
have been supposed. Some of the
difficulties were discussed recently in
the New York Times by Professor
Finley Foster of Western Reserve
University. The mere review of the
annals of the Nation, as he believes.
Is not enough. What the colleges
need" according to his theory, "is a
course which will lay the foundation
for an understanding Of this country
in its many aspects" Past and pres
ent social conditions, racial relations,
art, architecture, letters and music
are among the different phases of
the whole all-inclusive theme which
he mentions for consideration.
But the average student soon dis
covers that the specialization re-
quired by his major field and the
ordinary stipulations for a degree
leave him little If any leisure for
such broad reading and research.
Perhaps in the circumstances the
best policy would be that of devel-
oping one single course in American
civilization which reasonably might
be taken by all scholars without re-
gard to their particular detectives.
Professor Foster stresses the idea
of national self lf-comprehension At
Western Reserve, he explains, an ex-
perimental beginning has been at
tempted in literature. In the teach
ing of "a larger course" such as he
recommends "the special knowledge
of many of the faculty" would be
brought into action. Every student
thus would be provided with at least
the elements of background of his
tory and applied ethnography. This
Is no isolationist program, for alone
we cannot live. But we must under
stand ourselves If we are going to be

Mrs. Strone's Latest Gift

During many years her nelghborS
in the Nations Capital have known
Mrs. Hattie M. Strong as friend OF
all good and helpful causes. She has
been generous in her contributions
to sociology, education and music.
The buildings erected by her include
the Hall of Government at the
George Washington University and
the dormitory annex Of the Young
Women's Christian Association. She
has been one of the principal spon-
sors Of the National Symphony Or
chestra from It's start.
Each of these philanthropies, of
course, has earned Mrs. Strong the
honorable satisfaction which natu-
rally must accrue from kindly deed.
But surely nothing she ever has done
in the past will bring her more
gratifying pleasure than her latest
gift-the sum of $4,000 presented to
the Washington Public Library to
provide additional service for handi-
capped children, crippled, i'll 'or
Shut-in.
This money, according to Miss
Clara W. Herbert, librarian, will be
used under the direction of Miss
Louise P. Latimer to establish ar
experiment" which 1t is hoped may
be a model for cultural institutions
throughout the United States. Han
dicapped boys and girls represent 6

She already has had reason to be
