BETTER INSTRUCTION

In California, who by the way is a

in waa handled by the local teachers,
as weG writing of the children
The superintendent hastened to as-
hm that no luch reflection wis
intended, that the writing of these
children is no worse than that of the
rrff- better than some. But
aba added that- though modern schools
may be far in advance of 20 years
go, they arc not as thorough in the
fundamental essentials as they mirht
be, and any appointments to the teach
ing force which can help to improve
this fault should be welcomed.
Any one familiar with the hand
writing of school children, wherever
located, knows that on the average it
worse than poor. The teacher who
must handle all the routine work of
a school often has little time to per
fect herself in the best, methods of
teaching the extras, and the writing
lesson in most schools accomplishes
little. No branch of school work
needs the direction of an expert more.
' Anybody can learn to write well,
bat how many do? And where does
the fault lie?
Whether it be California or Maine.
or any spot between, a cmmun ty
should consider Itself fortunate wh.ch
has a superintendent of schools
brond enough to see the faults in the
school system and set about remedy
ing them.
INTERNATIONAL ADVKRTISINO
Manuel Caipio. from Mexico City,
addressing the Associated Advertu
inir Chilis of the World at New tlr
l.mniL announced that a big advertis
ing campaign is going to lie under
taken in Mexico. It is inteded to ad
vertise the I'mted States to Mexicans.
Th. )et thinir alio j t it is that the
publicity is going to be directed by no
Americans. oui oy ubwbw
men.
It is an admirable project. The
great trouble in Mexico nas been that
the Mexicans knew no little about the
United Suites and its people. Most
of them are densely ignorant. Those
ho hnve had access to newspapers
and other means of communication
have only too often been misled iy
propaganda intended to deceive, them
and footer their anti-foreign preju
dices. A systematic effort to set be
fore the Mexican public the facts
about our own nation and the spirit
and purpose actuating it should have
a wholesome effect.
International publicity. Indeed. Is
the thing most needed today through
out the world. Advertising is the
best substitute for militarism, and
costs it.elciil:ibly less. But it must
be advertsiine of th right sort not
the kind commonly resorted to. It
must it forth, in every country, not
the worst features of neighboring and
rival countries, but their best fea
tures. It is upon such understanding and
appreciation of good qualities in indi
viduals that amicable social life de
pends everywhere. Because it is so
much harder for nations to under
stand each other thhn. for- neighbors
in tnc same town, they must be ex
plained to each other.

Living Room Suites that
are Different - Distinctive
-' America is becoming more and more a nation cf
better homes and better home furnishings. Perhaps
the great war has emphasized the comforts of home.
Certainly it has made home mean more to the boys
who were jn the service and their parents are anxious
to have "home" mean more than ever to them.
Quite naturally this has brought a big demand
for home furnishings of the better sort and as we make
it a practice to have what the people want, you will
find our showing of living room furinture both differ
ent and distinctive.
