NEW TORK. Nor, Going home to rote breaks up a good many New Tork city circles. In which various individuals hare lived here only a year or so and hare not yet given up that last tie on their former home. But It took two of our Interesting YisHoTs farther away than usual this year. For it seems that elections are held as Important eren outside of these United States. The earl of Granard. ean-tn-law of Oarden Mills, who with his wife Is spending a few months with her family In town, sailed on our own election morning to cast his vote In the house of lords for the ratification of the Irish constitution. "Erery friend of Ireland must be there." the earl explained, when

friends asked how ho could leave New Tork before knowing certainly whether his brother-in-law was to be returned to congress. Lady Ann Johnstone, elster of Gilford Pinchot, sailed on the eame steamer in order to get back and electioneer for her son, running for parliament. "The election of my brother Is assured," she said, "while that of my son, who Is a Coalition-Liberal, Is quite a different matter."

SHIRLEY

CHICAGO, ILL. Is the United

States failing in the education of children? Among the nations of the world we have slipped from fourth to ninth place in educatio. in the last sixty yea. . This was the statement of W. R. Shirley of Muskogee, Okla., in an address in which he outlined plans for the $10,000,000 home for motherless and fatherless children which the Brotherhood of American Yeomen will establish. Mr. Shirley is chairman of the board of directors of the society and vicepresident of the National Fraternal Congress of America which has a membership of over 6,000,000 men and women. "We cannot build a nation on illiteracy," said Mr. Shirley. "Prus-

MORNINO- ABLUTIONS

sia has one man in a thousand who cannot read or write. Denmark, Switzerland and Holland Lave one man out of 4,000 who cannot read or write. We have seven men in every 100 who have acknowledged that they can do neither, and in industrial centers, among the foreign born, twenty out of every lC'J are illiterate. "These are problems we muzt meet and solve. The future of the country depends on the children of today. If we fail in our educational obligations to our boys and girls, the human resources of our nation will remain undeveloped." "Save the American Child" is

the idea that actuates the Yeomen A

in their home-bundir. pi ns, according to Mr. Shirley. The home will eventually care for 1,500 orphans and half-orphans wh3 if left to shift for themselves might represent so many potential units of undesirable citizenship. The school

will be fitted to the needs of the

children rather than that the chil

dren will Le forced to adjust them- J

selves to an arbitrary school system. When the children reach maturity they will b. equipped morally, mentally and physically to take their places in the world a" the finest types of self-supporting
