Vsually Presidents spend their summers infthe East, evidently with the idea that they should be as near as possible to the seat of government. There is really no need of th a t A, President can be just as much President in the Middle West or F a r West or South as he can in Washington. , \ Communication is easy, transportation is swift and dependable. The executive can always know what is going on in the world, no m atter where he is. He can get to Washington, from the most re mote corner of the United States, as quickly as early Presidents could get there from their homes in ad jacent states. But it is well for a President to get away from Washington on general principles, and stay away as long as his conscience will let him. For W ash ington is not America and its atmosphere, in the long run, is not conductive to a good understanding of America. v The chief executive, of all Americans, need most to get around the country and rub elbows and ex change opinions with citizens of many sections, in their own environment. That gives him a better line on the country.^ It is good, too, for the private citizens themselves. It does any section and, any citizen good to see the head of this great nation—gives them a new thrill of nationality—and they sbPuM »U have their chance with the President, as he has his chance with them.

I ndoubtedly the project or “ activities m ethod’’ is very go«xi if it can be carried out under ideal con ditions. Obviously it requires a teacher of unusual ability and special gifts of leadership. It is better adapted, too, to teaching children in small groups than in the large groups that our growing popula tion makes necessary in most of our cities. Somehow, no doubt, the best features of thb new sj^stem must be combined with the lx*st features of class room work unless communities will cheerfully spend the large sums of money that it would cost to apply individualistic teaching to all our voung- Tcxlay’s headline that you’ll never see: 1’nnlors i Plate for Fund to Buy Sinclair Lewis Oold Watch BT JÖRN ™ > I N $ 4 « r Le^a 'Æ /i .’Tt Febrpaqr «. )Rfi7.

The young man died, finally, but the labor was not in vain. His last days were made sweet by the preserving affection of his mates. These men have the satisfaction of knowing th at they did their best. And medical annals have record of life pro longed by artificial breathing. It is in this latter fact that the doctors see the greatest value in the publicity given the case. Had this been a case of drowning or other accident to a young jierson in good health, undoubtedly the hand made breathing would have saved his life. Innum erable are the casos of apparently drowned persons who have been saved by this method. One hour may not be enough.
