(i. AVKLLS, iii (lie last Saturday Kvcning I'ost, proposes a neiv world system of education. Instead of a multitude of school! teachers, hie,' ilttle, good and had, lie would have one central school faculty, composed of the best talent available. and through a com mon system of text books, equipment, etc., would, by means of the phonograph ami moving picture machine, simultaneously instruct the youth of the world. Of all of lie. ell s recent proposals this impresses us as being the most interesting and most practicable. Not only would educa tion be standardized, thus eliminating incalculable waste and duplica tion, but where now the best school is the exception, under this sys tem, the best school would be the rule. yii: 'Wells proposes a world system. This seems rather n large order, and difficult of application. Hut a national system, following perhaps tbc accepted principles of international educators, would undoubtedly mark a decided step toward that educational ideal, which has been the dream of progressive educators for so maov irs, and has seemed so impossible of attainment. The introduction of the phonograph and moving picture machine is particularly suggesl ivc, and one wonders why the idea has not been seriously advanced before. In language instruction, for exam ple, the phonograph would bring to every frontier outpost the same accent mid inflection, that the most advanced college eniovs, while in every brunch ol the arts and sciences the cinemetograph would not only put Coyote Center on an equality with Hoston or .New York, nit would inevitably provide the stimulus to the interest find 11111"-- netism of the young which the present, system of education so con spicuously lacks. As -Mr. Wells says the great handicap to educational betterment today is the scarcity of good teachers. And he shows conclusively that under the present system, any marked increase in the number of good teachers is impossible. But this system would allow a com paritively small corps of specially trained and carefully selected teachers to provide the basis of national instruction, and with one standardized series of text books, it would take a very incompetent local instructor indeed, who wool; not be able t o secure nt lcnsf. tic eptable results. Tl ...III I. ..1.1.. 1 . 1 f r .. . inn pi ooaiii.y uaiiy years ueiore Mr. Wells program is adopted. The inherent dread of change, the dead hand of inertia, are is potent in the teaching profession as anywhere else. Hut some program very similar to what Mr. Wells suggests is bound to come. or it means in the last analysis, merely applying accepted prineiplns ot business cllicioiicy (o education.

It was Colonel Harvey who resurrected the Father of His Country as the political lender of Twentieth Century politics and burped on the antiquated string of American isolation. Xow the colonel him self is approaching SI. .Tames 11s the evangel of tangling within the web og Kuropcan statesmanship and if possible, effecting a solution which will be agreeable to 'ncle Sam in his new role, as dictator of Kuropcan destinies. Of course, the entire performance i informal. There is no roc-; ognitioii ol the League ol Nations, per sc, there is no dalliance with a Kupcr.goveriiincnt, but nil this after all is beside tho point. Call it formal or informal, the. fact remains, that the United States, six months after the solemn referendum is demonstrating in a most em phatic and dramatic maimer, that America is not and can not. be iso lated, that what, concerns Kuropc, does concern America, and that till this talk about flcorgc Washington was the silliest sort of fol-de-rol. America is 11 world power, and miist take her part in world af fairs. America is in Kuropc, and Kurope is in America, whether cither like it or not. The school of Washiiigtoninn isolation, so elo quent in the late campaign, is us dead as the lleidelburgus Homo, and olonel Harvey is recent champion, is himself delivering the funeral oration. ' "Wilson's League may live or die, the final settlement iii Europe may be this or that, but this much is certain, the World is One, the final iiel, ion will be joint action. Nothing will be done against the wishes of the I'niled States, nothing will he finally accomplished, without the participation of the I'nited States. The day when Amer ica as a struggling colonial federation, could say let Kuropc go her way and we go ours, has passed never to return. At least one of the stage properties of the recent .campaign can now be laid on the shell and forgotten.
