To-day in2ugurates American Edu-
cation Week, which has been OBJ
served annually for some years.
This year, more than ever before,
special observance Of the privileges
OF free education, granted every
American citizens, assumes a new
importance. Heretofore, before the
cataclysm of Word War II, the term
"educatlon' meant to the average
lay person certain number Of years
spent in school, leading sometimes
to the higher realms of colleges and
universities but more often end
ing before graduation from high
school. Now, however, We must use
the word in its broadeSt sense ana
apply it to our daily living if we arc
to profit from the heartaCheS and
sufferings through which the whole
world is passing.
The National Education Associa-
ton, which is the instigator of a
national observance of Education
Week, has outlined a program of
daily topics which can we'll be car
rled over throughout the entire year
For instance, the topic for special
consideration today and which no
doubt is being eXpounded in many
churches throughout our country is
"Education for World Understand
ing. This war. with its breathleSs
progress in air mastery. is eliminat-
Ing distances as the telephone and
telegraph overcame the difficult of
news transmission and made it pos
sible for two people on opposite
sides of the world to converse dS
though sitting tete tete.
Our men and women overseas are
living side by side with people of
every nationality; they are learn
ing the languages and customs
They are acquiring a new under
standing of life as it is lived in for
elgn lands and when they return
will without doubt bring with them
a completely altered viewpoint.
We who remain at home will be
derelict in our duty if We do not
make the attempt to keep abreast
Of these changed and changing con-
ditions and prepare ourselves fer
this new tolerance which is bound to
manifest itself in our returning
service men and women.
The Board Of Managers will meet
Tuesday at 1890 am. in the NEA

not go even beyond that figure.
Noyes, which barely was past the
