Disarmament Sunday

Limitation of armaments and the settlement

of the far eastern problem, which are the outstanding topics before the Washington confer

eaace, will be discussed here Sunday at a non-

sectarian meeting in the Coliseum.

All the" churches of the city will participate

in -the meeting, whose purpose is to crystallize public opinion in favor of the proposed purposes of the conference. 1 Mankind generally believes that the nations cannot maintain their present armament programs without bankrupting themselves and inflicting a universal calamity on the world. The means of accomplishing the curtailment of military expenditures and the extent to which this can be carried out under present conditions is a disputed point. The participants n the conference, it seems, are approaching the deliberations with an open mind and a desire to make them fruitful of suc

cess, it xnis unoiasea spirit is not destroyed by the insistance of particular nations on their own programs, the conference may succeed in removing some possible causes of war and at the same time limit the cost of armaments to a figure which the people can pay without crippling commerce and industry. The meeting here on Sunday night will present the' whole issue to the people, enabling them to obtaia an intelligent grasp of the problems involved, as well as to express the sentiment of the community. '

Where the Schools Are Not to Blame The examination of men for the army during

the war revealed an alarming number of illiter

ates, and quite naturally our educational system was blamed for the condition. Since the war, educators have been under fire more or less, and the edict has gone out that the school system must be revamped so as to produce better results.

,Until recently we have not looked at the other side of the problem to see if others might not be just as much to blame. One critic asserts that the schools are blamed for everything, while the individual whose schooling is meager goes free. This authority points out that a person may forget to read as easily as he forgets dates in history or processes of grammar and arithemtic. One cannot blame the primary school system for illiteracy, says the authority, if the individual neglects to read so as to preserve and in

crease his ability in that art. The Springfield Republican says the cause of illiteracy may be extraneous to the school system, and adds: "Society is not wrong in looking to education for a cure of many of the ills that afflict it. But it is mistaken about the dose. Primary schooling cannot be counted upon as a kind of vaccination which will last through life. If mean lead illiterate lives early instruction will not save a considerable part of them from lapsing into illiteracy. And even if by intensive methods every

body could be carried onward and upward to the point of reading newspapers, consider how many other things which the schools are painflyy try

ing to teach must be forgotten because of neglect. It is not fair to put all the blame on the schools ; part of it is scattered among individuals too dull, shiftless and indolent to use what education they have, but a good deal of it can be traced straight back to society as a whole which has been steadily dumping its problems upon the schools without granting enough time and money for their solution. The schools have been exhaustively investigated ; now let us have a little investigation of why millions of adults have forgotten how to read."

MEN FROM MANY FIELDS ON ARMS ADVISORY COMMITTEE

i Musings for the Evening Simmons college girls took a vote and many decided they would be willing to marry men making $1,000 a year, figuring that would be enough to live on happily. jWhat those young ladies don't know about married life and household expenses they will never learn In school. AN IMPORTANT SUBJECT. The most important subject In this world is Nothing. It can safely he said that millions of I people are thinking about it. 1 A great many people are doing it. J Nobody knows how many, but too ) many. In some society circles, it is the sole 1 topic of conversation. Hundreds of people go abroad for it. It seems as though the women are getting ready to wear it, or a good imitation of it.

; Nine-tenths of the magazine stories 1 are written about it. A great many movie films deal with it Three hundred songs are written about it every week. The league of nations is constantly i doing it. ; The disarmament conference is get- ' ting ready to do it. ' It's the grand and glorious subject, ' Nothing. :.- Now that the treasury department lias decided, that beer may be manufactured and used for medicinal purposes,' there probably will be an epidemic of illness in this country that will beat the great plague in China. The senate has refused to cut the tax on small incomes. We take that as a personal grievance.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can", "Take It", "Up" WHEN DAY IS DONE We have the newness and freshness of morning, when the birds give their first and finest concerts. It Is the starting time for all. Aspiration, enthusiasm, and hope are all abud. Then comes Noon with its tasks well set and with the day in full bloom on every quarter. n. tui,wAat cn cmPare with the coming on of evening and "the fall or the night when day is done? sre 3 " ?ot th,el wf cme to look at things In perspectives and are able to weigh the values of the day at their full worth' j a We learn review the work of our hands and" minds when day is done and come into new determinations, will we be able to veSP hidden meanings of the universe and glory in the chance D,i T?ere 13 la?in? aside of t00ls h? the workman, the clearing and closing of desks by the men and women of business, the long lines of folks leaving the great temples of manufacture and everybody glad that day is done and a few hours may be had in which to reflect and play. How peaceful the end of the day seems! No matter in what part of the world it occurs. And even as we see the moving crowds here there and everywhere, we feel a soothing of the heart for we are not so impetuous as when we entered the day. We have learned and some things came very hard and bitter to us. Perhaps the other people in the house have all gone to their rest and we are all alone with a book or something. We can meditate e can say to ourselves: "Was it a good day and did you do your best? The day that has gone cannot be tried over again. But we may try another day in the morning if our life is spared. We may profit from our mistakes, glory in our victories, and resolve anew to make ourselves and what we do, worth while and then go to our beds for restful sleep and peaceful dreams.

Memories of OH Days In This Paper Ten Years Ago Today

Trees in this city have been sorely neglected. , This was the statement made to President Homer Hammond, of the board of public works by Prof. John P. Thompson, head of the botany department of the local high school, and also city forester. Prof. Thompson, in a conference with Mr. Hammond, declared that the trees needed attention and needed it badly. Plans were made by the professor to

educate the public in tbe proper care of trees. Of course, Mr. Thompson devoted most of his time to shade trees.

He said that most persons believed the maple to be the best shade tree.

but he disagreed, saying that the

maple could not stand the punishment

which is inflicted on trees by cement sidewalks. Mr. Hammond, who until that time, filled the position of city forester, and Mr. Thompson concluded, that the trees should be on the inside of the sidewalk and that the walk should extend to the curbing.

'Primitive Baptist' paper and decided to try it. I have used Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Lydia E. Pinkham's Liver Pills for about seven months and now I am able to do my work. I shall never forget your medicine and you may publish this if you want to as it is true." Mrs. J. F. Hursey, Star, N. C. Here is another woman who adds her testimony to the many whose letters we have already published, proving that Lydia E.

Therefore it will surely pay any woman whe suffers i:rom ailments peculiar to her sex to give this good old fashioned remedy a fair trial. Advertisement.
