PRICE ONE CENT NITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONS Let Us Put Our School Houses to Work for Our Country | Seattle Board Should Use Educational Facilities to Stamp Out Lies Spread by German Propagandists © in Seattle LL the distinguished men who have come here from the allied countries have agreed in saying that it is hard for Americans at present to realize they are in this world war, because the thing ‘is still so far away from us. Our cities have not been bombed by airplanes or attacked by enemy cruisers. Our broad acres have never felt the enemy's heel. Our soldiers have not yet faced the enemy's bullets and shells and poison gas and liquid fire. While Seattle’s school board is dis- protest loudly enough, boards of educa- tion in other cities are showing a less passive patriotism. The school board of New York, for instance, has taken a step which Seattle might well imitate. In the metropolis a series of lectures are to be given, explaining the aims of the United States in the war. There will be moving pictures of the battlefields, talks on the conservation of food, outlines of the lives of the great leaders produced by the war, and kindred enlightening subjects. war, from its many different angles, there ts still plenty of room for education on the subject. Phe pro-German propagandist has been busy in the land. He has disseminated many lies and repeated them so often that some people are deceived and take them for Gos- pel truths. There is the lie about who. started the war, the Teutonic kaiser’s seeking to shift the blood-guilt to others. There is the lie denying the atrocities that have been committed by German and war for something other than justice and freedom and democracy. Lectures properly given by capable speakers, with interludes of pictures taken from the actual battle fronts, would draw throngs to every schoolhouse in this city. An opportunity would be given to present the doctrine of real Americanism to our people. It would solidify the community for the war—even more than it is—because every man, woman and child who at- tended would be fortified with facts with which to confute the silly and the Austrian troops. There is the lie seeking to frighten our own people by exaggerating the mortality in battle. There is the lie seeking to make people | believe ach lecture is to be preceded by a vicious fables put about by those who would cripple the war-making power of this government. HERE’S A CHANCE FOR OUR SCHOOL BOARD TO SHOW ITS our own government entered this | AMERICANISM! * CHILD FINDS MOTHER | TIED; GILL SWEARS IN SPECIAL OFFICER Esther Thayer, 18, of 1056 Sullivan st., was attacked a seco time at 11:30 a. m.

Doctors were working on Miss Thayer at 2 p. m. and unable to tell whether her injuries were fatal. cussing the demand that the pro-Ger- I man textbook, “Im Vaterland,” be 20-minute talk on “Why We Entered the War.” There could be no more inspiring program than this and no better use for the public schools. Despite the many months during which all of us have discussed this thrown out of our public schools, and is half-heartedly making up its mind that maybe it will do something about it if Seattle’s patriotic fathers and mothers Y’S HONOR MEN GIVEN BIG SEND-OFF & wae . wien TODAY’S VICTIM OF THE SEATTLE WOMAN SLUGGER PHOTOGRAPHED IN HER BED AFTER BRUTAL ATTACK ” | ere o - roeey " = - = sapere emer Thru lanes of serpentine-striped streets, Seattle's rd contingent of select service men, numbering 738, », marched away today at 1 o'clock. a Tears, that marked the leaving of previous con- tingents, were few A holiday spirit, rather than one of sadness, fol- lowed the men in their triumphant march along the down-town streets. ~ Seattle, like a great big comforting mother, cheered ther boys early in the morning with a free vaudeville Show at the Moore theatre.
