AMERICA HAS WELL EDUCATED LEADERS No Place in World Provides Better Training only maintain a decent standard of livin®. | The old world with its woes stands | begging at our doors. Discontent is| spreading like a fatal disease among | great groups of our citizens.* This | tendency, unless checked. can have | one result—our experiment in | democratic government will murély | fail, and with it the hopes of a world | worn out with travail of new-bd¥n | |1deals of freedom. The outcome rests | with the teachers of America. we ready to do our share?” Are | Boston, July 7.—If opportunittes GERMAN MUSICIA for training leaders were a sufficient guarantee of the safety of the state, Americans would be living in a politi- | cal millenium, Dr. James E. Russell dean of Teachers' College, Columbia university, said in an address last| night before the National Education association. “Nowhere else in the world is pro- | vision made for so many aspiring can- | didates for leadership or for so many | different kinds of leaders, " Dr. Rus- sell said. “Coincident with the extra- ordinary increase in the past few years of those seeking higher education is increasing distrust of the integrity and | unselfishness of those best equipped to lead. In fact, expertness in techni- cal lines is no longer synonymoWs with leadership in professional service. If to the broader culture and more scientific knowledge now demanded by | those schools is added the spirit of patriotic service, the professional schools of America will have done their full duty. “From our standpoint we see in the German system of education and fits| logical outcome in the war, a horrible | example of what not to do, but we must be impressed by the fact tI¥t Germany has demonstrated that a vast population can be molded by educa- tion into the likeness of an ideal, even if that ideal, when realized, turns out to be, not a God, but a golden | calf. “What German teachers have done American teachers can do. We can set up an 1deal characteristically American, and we can realize it if the public will give us the necessary sup- port. Not blind obedience but volun- tary co-operation shall be our watch- word. We shall seek contentment through intelligent exercises of our individual talents, and find happiness in the possession of our own attain- HEADS HAWAIIAN Has Been Band Leader and General | Supervisor of Music on the | Island for 44 Years. 7.—Captain Henry Berger, composer and bandmaster of the Royal Hawaiian band from the days of the monarchy until 1916, cele- | brated recently the fiftieth anniver- sary of his arrival at Honolulu and was the guest of honor at a luncheon tendered by the Hawaiian Civic club. | Captain Berger is known as the “man who made Hawailan music fa- mous.” He arranged for publication many native melodies, including '‘Ha- | wail Ponol,” the national anthem of | the islands, and *“Aloha Oe,” from the words and air furnished by the late Queen Liliuokalant. Honolulu, July Captain Berger related to the Civic || club the manner in which he was| chosen to come to Hawai. Kame- | hameha V, king in 1872, had re-| quested Emperor Wilhelm of Ger- | many to supply a musician to lead | the Hawaiian band, and Berger was | selected from five applicants in the | German army. He came nnzmall_\" on a five-year furlough from the larmy, but remained to lead the band for 44 years, throughout the reigns of Kamehameha YV, King Lunaliho, King Kalahaua, and Queen Liliuo- kalani. The overthrow of the mon- archy left Captain Berger in the post | of bandmaster, where he remained until retired on a pension in 1916 by the city of Honolulu, which had taken| over the management of the band from the territory NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, Strong Fibre Suit Cases Strong and durable, Rein- forced corners and has brass lock and snaps. 24 inch size.
