Harding, President of the United States, do urge the Governors of the various States and Territories to set apart December 4 to 10, inclusive, 1921, as American Education Week during which; "Citizens in every State are urged to give special and thoughtful atten tion to the needs and aids of the pub lic schools. It is particularly recom mended that efforts be addressed to practical expression of community in terest in public education. To that end organizations for civic advancement and social betterment are , earnestly requested when is can be made pilac ticable, to provide, programs which will inform the people concerning the vital needs in this direction, instruct them regarding shortcomings and de ficiencies in present facilities and bring to their attention specific, con structive methods by which, in the respective communities these deficien cies may be supplied. ' "The subject of public education, has always been very close to the American heart, and to the fact that it has been made a chief responsibil ity of local governmental units, we largely owe the wide diffusion of edu cational facilities. It is believed that a widespread and earnest effort at observance of education week would do much to emphasize this feeling of immediate responsibility. Therefore it is suggested that the pulpit, press, schools, and public gatherings be en listed in behalf of this special effort."
