PUNS OUTLINED FOR TRIBUTE TO NATION'S SCHOOLS Washington. D. C.

Education Week will eon-j linue through Armistic Duv, Sunday.' November 11, when churches will give attention to the work which schools and teachers are doing in building faithful citizenship and ethical character. Officials of the American Legion and the National Education Association have worked out a tentative program which will be followed, to some extent, by school officials all over the nation. It calls for placing the first day's emphasis on education for health. “Health.” states the program is sued by the National Education Association, is the foundation of individual happiness and community wellbeing. Health Day programs can show the public what the schools do to promote health through recreation, nutrition ventilation and training in good habits. An adequate school plant — sanitary, spacious, cheeiful —helps to improve individual and community life and to insure a better race.” Local observance of American Education Week will take various forms. In many communities parents of pupils’ and other citizens will be urged to visit classes. In some instances schools | will be closed for part of a day and reopened for two hours in the evening in order that public demonstrations of class work may be presented. Luncheon clubs and civic organizations will devote portions of their weekly programs to apraisiug the community serviss rendered by the schools. Sponsors of American Education Week have stated that one of its purposes is to reduce the number of special days which schools are called upon to observe throughout the year. An effort has been made to combine in the
