IN INTKREST OK SCHOOLS
The great importance of concentrating
the minds of the people on the primary
and common schools of the State
has l>een\felt for years. We have built
, up most creditable colleges for the
women and men, but our common
schools have not been up to the standard
and there has not been the inter.

and demands.
Some time aflfO Gov. Harvey called
together some of the leaders of the
State looking to the betterment of tho
eontmon and grammar schools. These
citizens have formed the Citizens Kdueational
Association, and it means that
its name impliesi This association's
aim.iH to help and aid the cause of
education in the primary, common and
KTHjmnur schools, to give to these
'schools the very best that our day has
for such schools, to place these schools
more prominently in tho eye and mind
of tho public, tho legislator and thosfc
in' authority. Ry building tip a thorough,
well managed, .well equipped
and modern common school system In
this State we will buid up the whole
entire State and every business in it.
To t\jjq cpd, Education Week has
been sot apart, from December 3 to

that tho attention of the -people lie dlrcpled

strive and make every reasonable effort
to make a tietter and more competent

and children under his or her care,
to awaken the parents to their full responsibilities
in training and educating
their God gvon children, and to
leave nothing undone that a good
teacher should do for the children and

Washington, J^oy. 1 0President
Harding today Issued the following .
proclamation in connection with.-the
Annual Roll Call of the American Red
Cross which opCns tomorrow. Armistice
Day:'
T*o The AmericUn People:
The assurance, based on many
years' experience, that there will be
prompt ana generous response,
makctt it always' a satisfaction to direct
public attention to the annua
Membership Roll Call of the American
j Red Cross. This year it yvlll open on
i Armistice Day, No'veniber 11. and
close on Thanksgiving >Day, November
30. As President of the United
States and also President of The American
Red Cross, 1 hereby proclaim
November 12 as Red Cross Sunday,
and invite all the people to unite with
their spiritual leaders in such observance
of it as may promote a renewed
eonsecraton to the gospel of service
based upon divine injunction and
Sanctioned by all .good conscience.
l$y the terms of the Congressional
(Charter, which called it into being,
the"American Red Cross is' charged
witli" certain clearly defined duties
and1 'obligations. These it has eon*
tinned,' durlhg the past year, to dis
olihrge 'faithfully and efficiently.
There are peculiarly urgent reasons to'
'njUpehfr this'yeaV. In b'cHaff'bt an even
'greater gotierrisity than has been
' necessary ih' 'sonitj 'other times, be
catiso of tli'ii 'cfctvAftrd'lhary demands
upon such'"'kerVlfces. tot "mercy and humanity.
' <?ne of the most fedrfui disasters
of ?til history has befallen the
ill-fated Near Eastern area, where
the lives'of millions of unfortunate
peope even now depend and must continue
for a loner time to depend, on
the untiring liberality of more favored
communities; A Very groat sum is
required to l?e riised if the emergency
shall b<^ met: and while the task is
one. to which all well-dlspdsed peoples
must contribute, our own country Irr
; virtue alike of its inspirations of humanity
and its fortunate endowment
in material possessions, must be
conspicuous for both the great share
It shall give, and the high spirit animating
tlie gift. it is therefore asked
that cooperaton be established between
the Red Cross, the Near East
Ttollef; and ull other agencies which
are concerned to assist in dealing with
this crisis.
In the domestic field, demands continue
to press heavily upon the Red
Cross. The government is eartSpsdy
seeking to insure to every diseased or
disabled ex-service man the full measure
of care and help which national
gratitude and simple justice dictate.
The alrti must?be .to rostore'every ser-;
vice man- to "the best possible health

Jiave gladly availed themselves of the

idi e to1 its 'nation-wide-Vounteer orconization,--has
been a constant andyalqed

In the broad field cbncet'ried with*"
the physical aviMfare of the people, IhiRed
t'ross," '"in sympathetic contact'
with other 'cirjjaiilzationM,' and tinFederal
and State Bureaus, has been
particularly active in the establishment
and support of Public Health activities,

and other calamities during the jlasf j
year, and is still called upon to aid the
suffering in foreign land^i due t<> war |
and pestilence. For these reasons, re- j
gardless of the mutlitude of local
problems in every community, the
American Red Cross deserves well at
the hands of the American people.
In the interests of our common humanity
and' of the service which we
owe to our fellow men. I invite my
I ^
felow citizens to renew their allegienee
to the American Red Cross during the
period of the Membership Roll Cull.
