Hundred Young Men Sent Out By the Insular Bureau. SELECTED FROM LARGE LIST Gratlfying Progress Is Being Made By the Educational Forces in the Is- lands — Excellent Opportuni- ties for College Graduates. By GEORGE CLINTON. ‘Washington.—Throughout the bu- reau of insular affairs, of which Gen. Clarence R. Edwards is the chief, in- formation has come that the officlals of the bureau have chosen 100 teach- ers for service in the Philipplne is- lands. Almost immediately after the Philippines passed into the posses slon of the United States this coun- try, following the well-known course of English-speaking governments, made preparations to send teachers Into the new possessions. The Fili- pinos have shown that they desire ed- ucation above all things and the prog- ress that has been made there, it is said, 18 nothing short of wonderful. Two hundred young men and wo- men who have just been appointed as teachers to augment the American educational forces already in the is- lands are graduates of the best uni- versities, colleges and normal schools, and they come from nearly every sec- tion of the United States. They were selected from a larger eligible list of candidates than ever before ap- lied for positions with the insular ranch of the government. Bureau Officlals Gratified. The bureau officials in speaking of this matter of teachers and of the teaching work in the Philippine is- lands said: ““More than eleven years of our edu- cational experiment there has demon- strated to those who have investiga- ted the subject that, as a noted edu- cator on his return from the Orient said, ‘the achievements of the bureau of education in the Philippines make as bright and inspiring a chapter of history as was ever written,’ and that our insular service offers an excellent opportunity for honest, energetic and well-educated young men to render a most conspicuous service for the gov- ernment and for themselves.” “It is very gratifying to the officials to know that there 18 such an in- creasing interest in its insular pos- sessions and that it can depend upon young, clear-brained and clear-mind- ed men of good education to enter its service and assist in the solution of some of the problems which daily con- tront it. “Students and travelers in the Ori- ent in recent years have returned to the United States with the report that the east is to be the center of the greatest governmental activities of the twentieth century, and our posi- tion in the Philippines has made it possible for those on the ground to get an insight into these problems and take a very active part in thelr solution in so far as the participation by the United States government fis concerned. The development of the American public school system in the Philippines, modified to meet local conditions, has been a most remarka- ble one during the past ten years, yet the opportunity for further growth is great.” Bulletins on Education. Writing of government educational matters, it might be sald that the bu- reau of education is still actively at work sending out bulletins of the progress of education all over the United States and making suggestions for the betterment of conditions In re- : lation to the instruction of the young. Never before in the history of the gov- ernment apparently has there been so much energly put into the propaganda of publicity of the educational needs of the United States. The government bureau of educa- tion regards many things which are not in books as being a part of the educational needs of the people. Re- cently it has given great attention to means of keeping people on farms, and in this connection a quotation from a bulletin just issued will per- haps give & clear idea of one of the branches of endeavor of the govern- ment's educational authorities. One of the last bulletins is as follows: “Free entertalnments are given to rural communities in Plke county, Alabama, as part of a campaign to in- duce the people to stay on the land in- stead of abandoning their farms for city life. This information has been recelved by the United States bureau of education from E. M. Shackelford, principal of the state normal school at Troy, Plke county, Alabama, who is at the head of the movement. Mr. Shackelford writes: “‘In my opinfon the exodus of the younger generation from the country to the town is at present the most serious menace to our general wel- fare. Good roads, motor cars, the tel- ephone and rural mail delivery are fmproving rural conditions greatly, but rural social life does not yet af- ford the opportunities for the com- merce of ideas that an active, reading, thinking public demands. ‘Hence the tendency to congregate in the centers of population, and hence this effect of ours to afford a few social opportuni- ties through a course of free enter- tainments.’ Force of Habit. “Your neighbor, that stock broker, says he is going to get a dog. What kind does he prefer?” ‘_. ] (- No Lady Killer. M. Durand de Belleford de Gournay, who a few months ago startled the simple folk of Coutances by appearing in a brilliant uniform covered with decorations and managed to swindle the local trades-people of hundreds of pounds, cut a sorry figure when he ap- peared for trial at the assize court today. His only defence is that he swin- dled because he wished to create an impression on & Woman with whom he was in love. The judge repled: “Don’t talk to me of making an im- pression on the fair sex. You are far to ugly,” and then sentenced him to 8ix years imprisonment.—Paris cor respondence London Daily Malil, GERM LADEN DUST CAUSES CATARRH Ely’s Cream Balm Kills the Deadly Catarrh Germs. No Stom- ach Dosing. Catarrh, which is bad enough in itself, often results in loss of taste, smell and hearing, and leads to seri- ous throat and lung troubles if not promptly checked. The seat of ca- tarrh is usually in the back of the nose, and its natural course is down- ward, into the throat and thence to the lungs. Don’t take any chances. If you have any symptoms of catarrhb— stuffed up feeling in the head, nasty discharge from the nose, sore throat, or dry, hacking cough, get a fifty cent bottle of Ely’s Cream Balm from your druggist, and begin the treat- ment at once. This remedy is not a “burning out” or “drying up” process. It is simply a cleansing, healing, antisep- tic Balm, taken through the nostrils back into the head and throat where it instantly reaches the seat of the trouble. That’s the only way to ef- fectually and permanently cure ca- tarrh. Catarrh makes you offensive to yourself and friends. Start using Ely’s Cream Balm today, and in a short time you will be permanently cured of this nasty, disgusting dis- ease.
