Altho the cost of living has advanst 85 per cent and teachers’ salaries have been only slightly increast, teachers by economizing and sacrificing are purchasing Liberty Bonds and War Savings Stamps, besides donating their time and services in pro moting Government enterprises in various ways. These sacrifices and even greater than these if necessary will be made by teachers until the war is won National Headquarters of the N. E.A., 1400 Massachusetts Ave., N.W., Washington, D.C J. W.

The term is six weeks. One of the Summer Schools of Patriotism, promoted by the National Security League, will be held at the University. Music, studies in education, and studies in the fne and industrial arts receive attention. Special war conrses ir science and other studies are to be offered. Inasmuch as summer schools in or near cities which have entertained the N. E. A summer conventions have invariably had a large increase in enrolment from the y. E. A. membership, the University of Pittsburgh is preparing to accommodate a large number of those who will attend the Pittsburgh-convention. Many summer schools West, and further East, plan to extend their accommodations for the sum- PIfTSBURGH MEETING PLACES Just as Atlantic City has the best hotel facilities of any city in the country, Pitts burgh has by far the best meeting places. Within a square of three or four blocks are more than twenty-five meeting places to care for audiences above 500. Ten or more places accommodate audiences of 1,000 to 3,500. Great care is being taken to arrange for assembly rooms to accommodate all who desire to attend the meetings. PITTSBURGH SUMMER CLIMATE Contrary to conditions in most large cities, Pittsburgh is a very comfortable place ior summer meetings. It ts seldom, indeed, that oppressive heat is suffered for more than a few days in succession and then, as a rule, the conditions are found to be less severe than in case of most other cities of the same latitude. The following table based on Government reports for the year 1915 (the latest we happen to have at hand) is typical and shows the desirability of Pittsburgh as a place of summer residence : Temperature for 1915 For 45 yrs. to 1915 Days CITY Max- Mini- 90° Maxi- Mini- Mean imum mum or more Mean mum mum || | l ; | ln ae a en et: ee Ae a 70° | 90° 58° l a) 46. , SI cetticiuinsviptsan inet 74° | 95° 54° 6 774 105. 53. a wmeceiphia .....______ || 76° 93° 61° 3 76.5 | 103. 54. mew York............. iis 92° 59° ] 74. 99. 50. 0) ae Ss: | © 72.6 | 103. 50.

Alice Florer, Assistant State Superintendent Public Instruction, Lincoln, Nebraska LESS EXPENSIVE RECEPTIONS The local committees are not planning on expensive receptions and entertainments jor their visitors at the Pittsburgh meeting. They have been instructed by the Execu- tive Committee of the N. E. A. to limit all reception and entertainment expenses to war-time conditions, believing that members will appreciate inexpensive receptions at this time very much more than elaborate and expensive arrangements. REDUCED RATES Application has been made for reduced railroad rates for the Pittsburgh meeting. As soon as a definite reply is received the national press service will be requested to give wide publicity to the information. We are expecting concessions but whether our request is granted or not, let us all work for the success of the Pittsburgh meeting. THE GENERAL PROGRAM AND SHORT ADDRESSES The general program has been arranged on the theory that the membership will receive a greater inspiration from the speakers on the plan of having four, five, or six short, pointed, purposeful addresses at each session than from a program made up of long addresses. The speakers on the general program for the Pittsburgh meeting are limited to from 15 to 20 minutes, with the exception of three or four, whose addresses will not exceed 30 minutes. These addresses will be condenst for the Volume of Pro- ceedings which will contain, as may be inferred froma glance at the program, a series of notable contributions to education. Arrangements have been made to have the Volume for 1918 printed during the summer and distributed early in the fall.

THE ENLISTMENT OF THE PROFESSION To the Teachers of America: The teachers of the United States have been patriotic leaders in every war emer- gency drive. With their money and their personal services, they have supported and will continue to support generously, the Liberty Loans, and the drives for the Y.M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A., the Red Cross, and other agencies whose enlarged public undertakings have been made necessary by the war. Is it not now time to enlist the profession in an educational emergency drive? The National Education Association believes that the hour for eénlistment has struck. Thru its Commission, the Association issues this rallying call for at least 50,000 teachers to enlist at once, in order that war emergency work in education may be di- rected by an agency representing all elements and interests of the teaching profession The present shortage of teachers, the welfare of teachers in service, the education of adult illiterates, immigrant education, health and recreation programs, better rural education, training for all forms of national service, and the necessity to give imme- diate support to the Committee on Teachers’ Salaries, Tenure, and Pensions, were emergency problems put up to the officers of the National Education Association. The Association was obliged to undertake the work at once or to allow it to be done by 16 THE BM BA BULLETIN LL ne some other agency and therefore appointed the Joint Commission on the National Emergency in Education. This Commission is now hard at work. The Association relies upon the teachers of the country for the entire financial support of the big program. This is a professional service-call to every teacher in America! If France enrol, 110,000 teachers in her national association, surely America should enlist 50,000 a once, and many more next year. With such a large body of teachers actively working the voice of the National Education Association will be effective. Every recruit wil share with the teachers of the country the advantages of quick, decisive action. the time to enlist! Yours for the good of American Education, C. G. PEARSE Susan M. Dorsey Lotus D.

FINEGAN JOSEPHINE CorLiss PRESTON Committee on the Enlistment of the Profession Now is COMMISSION CONDEMNS TEACHING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGES Strong for English Language in Schools The following resolution was unanimously past by the National Education Asso- ' ciation Commission on the National Emergency in Education at its session of April 12 1918, at N. E. A. headquarters, 1400 Massachusetts Avenue: The National Education Association Commission on the National Emergency in Education and Necessary Readjustment During and After the War, representing thou- sands of loyal and patriotic teachers, believes the practice of giving instruction to chil- dren in the common branches in a foreign tongue to be un-American and unpatriotic, and we believe that all instruction in the common branches for all children in every state in this Union should be in the English language. We therefore recommend that the instruction in the common branches in both private and public schools in all states be given in the English language only, and that every legitimate means, both state and federal, be used to bring about this result. GERMAN EDUCATORS’ CASUALTY LIST The National Education Association has cancelled all honorary memberships of German educators. In response to a persistent demand from active members of the Association, from members of the Council of National Defense, and from others, the Executive Committee issued an order that all names of honorary members residing in Germany be dropt from the membership roll. The following are among the names of prominent German educators on the honorary list of corresponding members whose memberships have been cancelled: Dr. Christian Felix Klein, Wilhelm-Weber Strasse 3, Gottingen; Dr. Wilhelm Paszkowski, University of Berlin, Berlin; Dr. Karl Reinhardt, Schillerstrasse 8, Steglitz, Berlin; Dr. Friedrich Gustav Adolph E. L. Schmidt, Cultus Ministerium, Ber- lin; Dr. Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff, Berlin University, Berlin; Dr. Anton H. Appelmann, Herzlake Hannover; Dr. John Mez, Munich. ii —— ‘ational Ciation the big enrols 000 at orking it will Vow is RIDICULING TEACHERS’ WORK NOT TO RECEIVE APPLAUSE A prominent educator asks whether it is not high time that teachers cut out the practice of giving applause every time the work of teachers and the schools is ridiculed from the platform. While he realizes that the adoption of his suggestion would be yery hard on some well known speakers, he feels that so long as teachers take lightly the work and duties of their profession, we can hardly expect the public to seriously consider generous support for the schools or increast salaries for teachers. Is not his point well worth considering? DEPARTMENT OF NORMAL SCHOOLS President--D. W. Hayes, President, State Normal School, Peru, Neb. Vice-President--G. W.
