OBSERVE PRAYER
DAY FOR SCHOOLS
Local Clergy to Co-operate in
Move Suggested by Na
tional Reform Association.
The second Sabbath in September
liaS (or years been observed as a day
of prayer for public and private
schools. Among people of all evan
gelical denominations the observance
lias become quite extensive, if not
general. There are more than usual
reasons this year why the day should
be even more widely observed, and
local ministers who have endorsed the
idea and who will deliver appropriate
sermons on that day urge the co
operation of all people in this un
selfish Christian and patriotic effort to.
.tensuy ana extend tne ODservance.
Prayers will be offered in thousands
of churches and homes for the chil
dren and youth of America who are
being fitted for usefulness and citizen
ship in the schools, for the teachers
and for the work of the schools gen
erally. Many ministers of all shades
of belief, located in all corners of the
country, will speak on some phase of
the important relation of morality and
education.
' Proud of Schools!
America is justly proud of its school
system. It has been called the most
American thing in America." This
year the school is in danger as never
before. It is especially urgent that
the Americans of tomorrow shall have
the prayers and thoughts of patriots.
The educational system is being
shaken by war. Teachers of higher
and lower grades nave responded to
the call of the flag. Boys are at work
on farms and in factories who should
normally be in school.
Demands are being made for a lax
ity in the enforcement of laws of com
pulsory education and a change in
child labor laws during the war. Sev
eral states have already amended their
law s to allow children to work during
t lie p&ogress of the war. England
made this mistake. Thousands of
English children were, allowed to
leave school who were only 11 and 12
years of, age. England has awakened.
We must not imitate it. Democracy
cannot succeed without an educated
electorate. Illiteracy is the enemy of
republican government. The founders
of America knew this and sought to
offer every child an equal chance.
Deficient in Religion.
But mere education is not enough.
P. P. Claxton, United States commis
sioner of education, at the recent
meeting of the National Educational
, association said: "The greatest defi
ciency in American education today is
in the moral and religious elements.
The great war has destroyed our faith
in German secular education. Let us
repent of 'kultur' and 1 teach sound
spiritual life."
The recognition of the present
danger to our children from war con
ditions and of the need of moral train
ing is leading to a wider observance
and a broader understanding of the
day of prayer for schools than at any
time since it was first suggested, fif
teen years ago, by Dr. James S. Mar
tin, superintendent of the National
Reform association, Pittsburgh, Pa.
It is realized that the year's work can
not be better begun than by praying
for the children and youth and con
sidering their moral as well as their
intellectual needs.
Methods of adequately meeting
these needs will be further considered
by the leading educators of the world
at the third World's Christian Citizen
ship conference which is to meet in
Pittsburgh in July. 1918.
Y. M.C. A. Night School
Adds Two New Departments
The Young Men's Christian asso
ciation night school has had a reputa
tion for years of endeavoring to meet
the needs of both employers and em-
t Ti I i If, 1
pioycs. ii nas sieaony increased us
volume of work and this year in spite
of the young men who are leaving the
city constantly the association hopes
to increase its work over the previous
year.
An up-to-date and complete system
of telegraphy is being installed in the
educational rooms and the very latest
system of teaching telegraphy will be
offered for young men wishing to take
telegraphers positions or to try for
the signal corps work in the armv.
Railroad and Western Union offi
cials are urging young men to study
this work because of the splendid op
portunities for employment and ad
vancement. J L. Ferciot, manager of
the Western union; r. r. frenzer,
superintendent of telegraph of the
Union Pacihc Railroad company, and
ti. A. Vaughnassistant superintend
ent of telegraph, Burlington, have
writtens letters urging the association
to add this course to its curriculum.

crook and Fort Omaha. Other classes

Lincoln Business College.
Indications are that the next twelve
months will bo a banner year for the Lin
coln Business college. It will naturally be
a big year in the history of business educa
tion, because so many young men are being
drawn from business life into the army and
others must go into training to take the
vacant places. The Lincoln Business college
has been growing rapidly and will get its
full share of this year's Increase, so that
me tacuity expects to have fully as maiy
students as can be taken care of. The Insti
tution is in Its thirty-third year.
Class la French.
On account of our present relations with
France, much Interest Is being aroused in
the study of the French language and of
the manners and customs of the French
people. In all probability, French will be
the favored language among society folks
this winter and it is predicted that many
classes will be formed for Instruction and
conversation.
Miss Mary Lewis Wood, who has Just
opened a studio in the Baldrlge block, is
prepared to receive pupils in this language.
Having spent many years In Paris and hav
ing been an ardent student of the French
language, she can offer exceptional advant
ages to pupils wishing Instruction.
.Miss Wood has also had unusual oppor
tunities for musical study under some of
the foremost teachers of Paris, Berlin and
Dresden. Fldelo Koehlg of the Paris grand
opera was her instructor. After his death
hiT talent admitted her as one of the pupils
of the famous Madame Marches!, who has
been the teacher of some of the world re
nowned prima donnas. Later Miss Wood
studied under Jean de Reske and Etelka
Uerster.
After thirteen year abroad. Miss Wood
returned to this country, making her debut
in ilnglish concert at tho Lltllu theater in
New York City.

best of the ulversltles of the middle west
