Hughes of America’s proposal -in the Disarmament Conference was much more far-reaching than even the most ardent advocates of disarmament could have dared to hope for. It was received with a feeling bordering upon consternation, if we are to be-| lieve the reports which have been given out by the noted cor-| respondents who are assembled there. Without any delay or unnecessary comment, Secretary Hughes put forth America’s proposition at the first session of the conference. Baron Kato, the Japanese delegate, might well remark it was “very far-reaching.” Arthur Balfour, head of the British delegation, characterized it as ‘“a statesmen-like utterance, pregnant with infinite possibilities and most hopeful and satis- factory results.” The American proposal, concrete and detailed, fell on the opening moments of the conference liké a bombshell. The for- eign delegates were stunned; for, whatever they may have ex- pected to come from America, they had never dreamed of any such sweping proposition as was made. he conference was electrified when Arthur Balfour, head of the British delegation, proposed that, as an extraordinary tribute to Secretary of State Hughes and the United States, the secretary act as chairman by .common consent and without for- mal election. If the spirit of the conference continues as it has begun, there is reason to expe¢t much from it. * i TALKING ACROSS THE CONTINENT b The voice of President Harding, in his address at Arling- ton, Va., on Armistice Day, was heard across the continent and by thousands of persons assembled in two huge auditoriums on both coasts by means of loud speaking apparatus, installed by engineers of the Bell Telephone System at New York and San Francisco. u It was not possible to include other cities in this epochal event because the apparatus has been but recently perfected, and sufficient quantities have not yet been manufactured for general use. President Harding’s voice was carried over the long dis- tance telephone lines from Arlington to New York City and San Francisco where the wires were connected with “loud speakers,” and through them transmitted to the thousands of people in each of the two cities'who had assembled to hear and to marvel at this new and remarkable achievement of voice transmission. ; . This truly marks an epoch in achievement of the contrgl of the voice for long distances.” What the future will hold in store for the delivering of address by great speakers in a mat- ter of conjecture, but it seems certain that in no gredt distance in the future public address by great men will be heard simul- taneously all over the country, and not only addresses by men but great musical artists will be able to sing and play in many places at the same time, The possibilities are unlimited. -0 KNOW YOUR SCHOOLS December 4 to 10, 1921, has been designated American Education Week, and ia to be held under the auspices of the American_Legion and the National Education association, in co-operation with other organizations. The main purposes of the week are to inform the public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to secure co-operation and support of the public in meeting these needs and to teach and foster good Americanism. ' No service has suffered more from unintelligent ecriticism’ than the schools. The average citizen does not read educational literature, or accounts of teachers’ meetings, or visit schools to learn what they are doing. He has a conception of school only, as it was in‘-his own school days. American Education Week should give the taxpayers, who furnish the funds for the public schools, first-hand knowledge of the service for which they pay. Education cannot afford to neglect this opportunity to advertise its aims and purposes. i It is the duty.of all the friends of education to think seri- ously and work hard on the problem of keeping the idea of pube lic education before all the people. All _communities should observe American Education ‘Week, Proclamations calling on the people and schools to ob- serve the week will be made throughout the United States. Good-bye to the Rubber Sac?

The. ecar- rings that Napoleon gavé ‘to’the Em- press Josephine at the height of his power and of his love for her! Noth-; ing less than that. They were re'cunt-_l ly purchased at an auction in Aust; .n’ and are now displayed for sale in‘the window of a Fifth avenue jewel Could the romantic seek. anything more satisfying than those emerald earrings—even just to -gaze at in a window? Here is another group of mere men who are vitally interested in fthe de- tails of women’s fashions. The drug clerks who sell postage stamps. Velis are the particular source of their grievances, and now that tight veils are pretty much out of style the drug clerks rejoice. “Veiled women all ask us to lick their stamps,” one druggist told me. “I almost put up a sign against it last season, saying ‘wiease lick your own stamps,’ but now they don’t seem to wear them and we’ve settled down to peace in the store.” A thousand women gathered to- gether from all parts of the country n honor of their alma mater! There is: something trémendously inspiring in such a scene—especially in view of the things men are wont to say about’ us not having group solidarity and all that. The annual luncheon of the Vassar College Alumnae has Jjust been held here, and they came from all’ over—well, from all over the world, rather than the country. It was particularly interesting in view of the fact that they came Je- liberately, knowing that the thing they were going to hear all through the luncheon was the necessity of their getting out and doing_plain hustling for the $3,000,000 Vassar is working» for. That’s a big thing, I should say, to be able to get peo- ple on a train and cross the country voluntraily to hear how much money they must raise and why. Julia Lath- rop, former head of the Children’s Burdau, Capt. Julia Stimson, of ramy nurse fame, Dr. Catherine Dement Davis, and a good many others of the alumnae’ who have made big plans for themselves in the world were among those present. 1. just learied something that Imcy Jeanne Price Annetta Morandi, who arrived on our shores from ftaly the other day deserves the gold medal for match- .makeys, even though she is yet only ‘22 years of age. Back in.ltaly, An- netta won the heart of Sergeant Jo- Seph Fopter, late of the A. E/F. On his. return’'to this country, he -wrote gging hér to come and marry him. She was willing, but pointed out that she could nat leave hexr two younger sisters, Julia, 19, and Francigea; 17, "alone 'in “Naples. They -were -just as beautiful-as she. s Why couldn’t Joe, find some ni¢ce Americans foy them to come pn‘d mfitry,lfiqo? Joe, did.! First he persuaded bis’brother, Henry, that any one who could get any member of the trio to be his wife was a lucky man, indeed. Henry proved anigiial and with™ this triumph to enco him, Joe went after his cousin, Fr Martin. Once again Joe proyed why he had been cRosen for recruiting ser- vice at the cJose of the war. All three of the men were at the Brooklyn pier the other day when the ship came in; and all six started straight- | § way for the marriage license bureau, If you happen to notice a down- at-the-pavement look on the part of the habitual New' Yorker, don’t be afraid that we are being overcome with modesty: We're just looking for things other- people have lost. A wo- man in the subway was explaining \the situation to a friend of hers. “Thousands of dollars are lost every vear in New York city,” she said “Diamonds, furs, soda crackers, silk stockings, and other valuable arti- cles are ‘dropped. in the crowds and trainpled under foot until some one comes along and picks them up. I decided to become one of those who did the picking.’During the last year, by constantly looking for lost articles, 1 bave found nearly a hundred dol- lars in cash, a fur picce and a jade necklace.” Ambition does not die just because it is hedged about by tall tenements and noisy city streets.-Saul Baiser- | man of Manhattan, an immigrant of | seven, years’ residence on this side of 'the’ Atlantic, has been working |§ for six years on’ a vision of marble and bronze in,which he typifies Am- | g erica. He came from the Russian steppes with a rudimentary interest in modelling, but he had no idea of art or inspizited: expression until the examining magistrate who admitted him at ‘Ellis Island, gave him a bit of adviee—to’ ‘work seemed pretty nice in these so-called soulless days of jazz.
