Aley, Orono, Me., Klrat Vlee-Prealdent. 8 A. It. Kent, Raton, N. One of the Vlce-Preaidenta. race was dealt with yesterday morn ing at a meeting of the department of special education, of the N. E. A., held at Ladd School. The meeting was presided over by Vice-President Burchard W. Debusk, University of Oregon, with Nellie A. Goodhue, director of special classes, Seattle, Wash., as secretary. Among the subjects discussed were those of the psychopathic child, defective speech, the subnormal child, delinquent chil dren and deaf children. "America's model for a .speech de partment has grown out of the orig inal mistakes and bad beginnings of those who first instituted such de partments," said Walter B. Swift, Graduate School of Medicine, Boston, Mass. "The great lessons that this experience has taught consisted in teaching us that there should be three individuals to manage this depart ment, a superintendent, teachers and a doctor . No department can be suc cessful where any one of these is omitted. The most important thing for the superintendent to do is to know where teachers should be sent for the tudy that is- necessary; the most im portant thing for the teachers to do s to still be grade teachers, have their salaries raised, keep the pupils in the grades and do speech work in the aft ernoons. The most important thing for the doctor ls-to examine, diagnose and advise and thus to eliminate the physical hindrances from the teachers' work." LIBRARY IS INDEX TO SCHOOL State Superintendent Churchill Has Idea of Progress. That the progress of high schools may be determined by a peek into the library was the .statement made yes terday afternoon by J. A. Churchill, State Superintendent of Public Instruc tion of Oregon, at a meeting of the library department of the N. IS. A., held in Library Hall. If the library is not being used, declared Superintendent Churchill, "one knows that the teachers are not pre pared, or that they are Indifferent, and that the school is not making satisfac. tory progress." The morning session was given over to round-table discussion for high school librarians, conducted by Louise Smith, librarian of Lincoln High School, Seattle. The care of newspaper clip pings, pamphlets, etc., was described by Miss Virginia Slaven, school libra rian of Seattle. A question box, conducted by Miss Harriet A.

Henry W. Jacobson 324-26 Morrison St. Portland Hotel Block Portland's Finest Tailoring Establishment for Men's Suits at Moderate Prices MRS. YOUNG IS SPEAKER ASSERTION IS MADE THAT BOYS SHOULD LEAR TO COOK. Blsgnt Branch Meeting; of ?f. IS. A. Convention la Department of Elementary Education. The biggest department meeting yes terday was that of elementary educa tion at Lincoln High School in the morning, with which was merged the department of kindergarten education. Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, Katherine Dev ereaux Blake and Dr. Caroline Hedger were speakers. Mrs. Young caused a ripple of excite ment when she eald boys as well as girls In high school should be taught to ook. They should also know as much bout food preservation and conserva tion as the girls, she said. The speaker admitted this doctrine had been regarded as revolutionary when she had made the pronouncement in her regular school work, and fathers f likely young men revolted. But when she changed the name of the course for boys to camp cookery the parents were delighted and made no objections what ever. Mrs. Young stood for the maintenance f present educational standards and aid they should not be surrendered because of the stress of the times. De- plte the preparedness hysteria, she said, children should not be taken out f school and put to work. If a more dire emergency should arise, she would favor an extension of children's activ- 1 Hies in correlation with the school work. The task of education will be harder this year than usual, said Katherine Devereaux Blake, because many teach ers are leaving their places through mistaken Idealism. Real patriotism, she said, would keep them in the school room, for it is more noble to teach In this crisis than to roll bandages. Dr. Hedger spoke briefly on poor nu trition as a problem of the schools, de fects of eyesight and other things that Impair the efficiency of the pupil, and she spoke of the high cost of retarda tion. Officers for the department of ele mentary education were elected at the close of the morning session as follows: President, Alice L. Harris, assistant su perintendent of schools, Woroester Mass.; vice-president. Miss Dora M. Moore, principal of Corona School, Den ver; secretary, Alfie O. Frlel, principal of Linnton School, Portland. Slides and motion pictures of welfare work for children along kindergarten lines were shown. Luncheon for the kindergarten section followed at the Hotel Benson. There was also a lunch eon at the same place for the elemen tary education department, which con cluded Its sessions yesterday morning. The klndergartners will meet again this morning at 9 o clock. BLUE PENCIL IS CRITICISED Educator . Declares Natural Expres sion Prevented by Teachers. Notwithstanding all of the "knock ing" to the contrary, there is a real work of value which may be done by teachers of English in the high schools if they will but grasp the oportunity. and the greatest feature of it is to J teach atudents to understand that they should speak and write their thoughts freely. They should not be stunted, neither should they be forced to think or write according to their teachers' ideas. Such was the viewpoint of speakers before the National Council of Teach era of English, of the N. E. A., held In the Public Auditorium yesterday. Especially was this the declaration of Professor H. G. Merrlam, of Reed College, Portland. Less attention and time should be devoted to diction or to the search for the so-called "right kind of a word," the speaker said, and more should he given to actual development of the rare gift of speaking or writing- the ideas of one's natural self. Every student, he declared, has the right to express freely, without being shut off by any teacher, the normal thought of his mind. Only in this way may the imagination be developed or new ideas worked out, he explained. He characterized the "finished product" composition of - the average high school student as one out of which all life has carefully been crushed. W. R. Davis, of Whitman College, Walla Walla., Wash., spoke along the name line. GOVERNOR LISTER IS SPEAKER Washington Executive Makes Plea for Universal Loyalty. While not on the programme for yesterday morning. Governor Lister, of Washington, being in the city, was in vited to speak before the school ad ministration department of the N. E. A. in the Publio Auditorium and. upon being Introduced by O. M. Plummer, the presiding officer, addressed the large audience alon? wartime lines. Among other things, he declared that the crops of his state "are going to be harvested, notwithstanding the at tempt of certain disgruntled agitators OCtlOIl to the contrary." He was loudly cheered. "We must win this war," said Gover nor Lister, "whether it takes three months or 10 years, and it is no time for any person or set of persons to seize upon conditions in this country as their opportunity to settle their own grievances. Every loyal American cit izen will have something to do and must do his full share; we must stand united on every Issue, and there is no greater work that the educators of this country may do than to instill loyalty In the hearts of the youth. "I do not know how long this war will last," the Governor concluded, "but I hope It will not end until out of It shall come complete liberty for all the peoples of the world and a last ing, universal peace." Robert J. Aley, president of the N. E. A., delivered an address on "Why I Love America"; Caroline Hedger, of Chicago, made a plea for proper treat ment of foreigners in a speech on "The Problem of the Adult Immigrant," and Dr. W. T. Foster, president of Reed College, Portland, spoke on "Conserva tion of National Ideals in Wartime." PHYSICAL TRAINING NEEDED Woman Declares Every Teacher Must Be Competent Instructor Not until every teacher in the ele mentary schools is able to teach prac tical physical, education will It be pos sible for the right kind of training to be given to pupils of grade schools, according to Signs E. Hagelthorne, of the department of physical education for women, of the University of Cali fornia. She was among the speakers before the department of physical edu cation of the N. E. A., the session of which was held In the Public Audito rium yesterday. She declared that the present system of this country does not reach the children of the grade schools, and that because It does not a large per cent of them never receive proper physical training, as they do not enter the high schools or the institutions of higher learning. Dr. W. T. Foster, president of Keed College, Portland, speaking on the sub 1ct of "Intercollegiate Athletics and the W ar," paid that the policy or iteea I Portals Of Infection Drain -pipes which empty into cesspool or sewer, . drains of kitchen-sink and toilet, bath and wash basin are open portals for the invasion of dangerous diseases Typhoid and other intestinal maladies, and all the ills incident to sewer gas, constantly menace the home where drains are not kept in a sanitary condition. Germs multiply by millions in the nooks and elbows of these pipes, especially when the plumbing is old. Lysol Disinfectant kills all disease germs. Use it in scrubbing water, sprinkle rugs with it (it cannot, stain the colors); use it daily in sinks, toilets and cesspools; you will then make abetter fight against disease than it can possibly make against you and yours.

Dahm, assistant director of the extension division of the University of Washington, who was to have de livered an address Wednesday after noon on "Modifications In Commercial Training as Suggested by Present World Conditions," spoke yesterday morning instead, emphasizing the ab solute necessity of eliminating just as far aa Is possible all theoretical studies and to make everything practical. He explained that to be successful in busi ness a young man or woman must be practical. Mary Schenck Woolman, of Boston, spoke on "Vocations for High School Girls." pointing out the many oppor tunities existing all over the country for the girl who Is trained for a vo cation. She said that determination, loyalty and ability to adapt oneself to conditions, combined with the rare gift of being able to "take orders" and execute them rightfully, are the prin cipal things which go to make up a successful business career for a woman. "How to Teach Salesmanship In the High School" was the subject of an ad dress by F. H. Young, head of the com mercial department of the Pendleton High School. H. F. Smith, of the Wash ington State Agricultural College, spoke on "Expert Training Methods, Their Necessity and Application In i our l ypewrninp ngparonwii.
