"No service has suffered more from
unintelligent criticism than the
schools," Dr. Chart Ormand Williams,
president of the National Education
Association, and Alvin M. Owsley, Na
tional Director of the National Amer
icanism Commission, have said after
a thorough preliminary survey of the
educational situation in tlie United
States. .
Schools Not Understood
"The average citizen does not read
educational literature or accounts of
teachers meetings or visit schools to
leafn what they are doing or how the
children are faring," the statement
continued.
"The average citizen has a con
ception of school only as he knew it
in his own school days. American Ed
ucation Week should give the tax pay
ers who furnish the funds for the pub
lic schools first-hand knowledge of the
service for which they -pay. Educa
tors cannot afford to neglect this op
portunity to advertise its aims and
purposes.
"It is the duty of all the friends of
education to think seriously and work j
hard on the problems or keeping tne
idea of public education before all
the people alj the time.
"In every possible way the public's
attention should be - centered on ed
ucational problems," the joint state
ment continues. "It should be center
ed upon the need of better buildings,
libraries and equipment, playgrounds,
better school attendance, better paid
teachers, longer school term, better
vocational education; better under
standing of the form and fundamental
principles of or government and bet
ter and universal use of the English
language. Special emphasis should
be placed on the singing of patriotic
songs, salutes to the flag, the flying
of the flag from evey . school house
every school day the weather permits,
and upon short, interesting accounts
of essential facts in American His
tory." Among the topics already selected
hy communities in every quarter of the
United States for the observance of
this week are these: American Ideals
and Americanism; National Contri
butions to our Immigrant Citizens
their pride in .our country and its
principles of government; American
Patriotism; Civil and Military Her
oes; the School and the Nation; Ed
ucation, the Greatest Investment for

A large number of the Gladstone

state fell into the hands of the un

who favored the tax did not take suf

sufficient funds for street improve
