Plan for Peace, U. S. Head Asks Voters’ League

Mrs. Clarence F. Merrell, president of the Indiana League of Women Voters, has received a letter from Miss Marguerite M. Wells, national league president, requesting state organizations to plan and prepare for the peace terms that will follow the war in Europe. In keeping with the League's policy of seeking international co-oper-ation to abolish war, Miss Wells emphasized that now the League “must pursue its course more earnestly.” “If our own country were at war,” Miss Wells said, “everybody would become intensely patriotic. In pursuing its present course, the League may give an example of ‘preventative’ patriotism.” The letter, sent to all state League presidents, further stated that “by proving that democracy is best and by considering how to prevent all wars through international co-oper-ation, our country may make war patriotism forever unnecessary over here.” Miss Wells sent out her letter while on her way to the national League headquarters in Washington from her summer home in Minnesota. In Chicago, she conferred with Mrs. Louise Leonard Wright, chairman of the Department of Government and Foreign Policy; Mrs. George Gellhorn, chairman of the Expansion Campaign, and Mrs. Roscoe Anderson, chairman of the Department of Government and Education.

| By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON HILDREN do NOT hate going back to school. Schoo's are open and vacations are over. and an army, millions strong, is trooping in with books and lunch boxes. And they like it—because whether they realize it or not, they welcome regimentation. After the freedom of long summer days, and the first exhilaration of independence, most youngsters welcome the change. Now they will know exactly what to do, when to do it and the meaning of minutes. We take it for granted that most children hate school. Well, I don’t think so. If they hated it really they would not talk of it in later years so fondly. School provides the roughage children need. By this I mean that each day they have to make a real effort. Without it they might find it hard to confrom to responsibility. Mothers cannot do it all, indeed very little, for their interest is personal. School is typical of life, more or less impersonal when it comes to obedience. Obedience to rule, to effort and to social law—it demands them all. The school of today is not the tyrant it used to be. Children are taught by teachers who know the intricacies of human nature. Call it psychology or what you will, it is part of today's training for teaching. The problem-child is recognized as such and handled wisely. Then, too, pupils are not marked entirely on their work credits, but also upon effort, promptness, attitude and the like. I have followed the work of progressive and experimental schools that accent the “interest” motive and teach largely through that. I approve up to a certain point, and only that far. But they are doing what I predicted they would do, long ago. Gradually the free-for-all spirit is being tamed a little. They, too, see the necessity of some regimentation and are now adgpting more formal methods. hey, too, know that
