Summer School Gives Workshop In Recreation Physical Education Health Courses Opet For Superintendents Dr. J. A. Stoddard, director of the summer school, has sent a notice to all principals and superintend ents of high schools, and county su perintendents of education of this state, to inform them of the six weeks workshop being offered at the University this summer, in health, physical education, and re creation. The workshop will run from June 26 to July 31, and grants six semes ter credits for satisfactory work. All teachers who are interested are urged to attend, and those seeking certification in these fields. The workshop technique was de cided upon because this offers an opportunity to adapt theory to the teacher. The work wiii i- doi- in small groups considering problems of vital interest to the individual teacher. Later these will be worked out in general conference and in the laboratory. The only lecture course will be one in the funda mentals of health, given by Dr. Schayer, whose long experience in public health and association with school sanitation qualifies him for this course of instruction. The Iheory in physical education will be confined to the principles, organizalions and adniinist rat ion, methods and materials. The course in recreation will be almost exclusively laboratory wotk. All varieties of recreational activi ties will be planned. Each teacher will participate. Opportunity will be given to the teacher to aid in these plans and their excution, and thus real experience will be gained. News Hound Pulls Boner!

Ransome America Was Misappraised, Dr. Cook Says "The German people underestim ated the strength of America in this war as well as the last war," declared Dr. Vernon Cook, of the ancient language department of thbe University of South Carolina, who spent four years in Germany before the First World War. Doctor Cook went to Germany in 1914 where he took a degree in Latin and Greek at the University of Mar burg. While he was there, he came into considerable contact with the Pan-German group of students who were prominent there. These students, Doctor Cook said, were dominated by one idea the mastery of the German race. They were also steeped in Anti Semitanism. As war with America became more and more eminent, the Germans thought that the Americans were too slack and in different to fight. Doctor Cook said that the Ger mans were personally very decent to him. The country s''emed to him very lovely, well-ot ganized and in dustrious, and he saw very litIle poverty. Rut, he said, he noticed that they lacked the political abil ity to rule themselves. They had no political comprehension of matters. As the submarine warfaie against the United States became more in tense, and President Wilson sent mote and mote notes to the Ger. man government. Doctor Cook re alized the urgency of leaving Ger many, and lie did so in November, 1915. After two years at the University of Chicago. Doctor Cook was draft edl into the army and sent to Camp Jackson, South Carolina. There, be cause of his ability to speatk Get mati, lit was assigned to the intel ligence depart ment.
