PAUL SHOREY, University of Chicago Foreign-language papers and foreign-language preaching only retard Americanization and promote clannishness. Except for a few gifted i is such m # . heart, the derstanding and the loyalty are truly at home in one language only. American schools have hitherto taught too much about American' divisions and henceforth ought to emphasize the things that unite This does not mean that they should falsify history, still less that they should foster a temper of provincial pride and contempt for the foreigner. Americans who hope that the new America will remain "E pluribus unum" and carry over all that was best in the old, should see to it that our schools make fuller and more critical use of the noble American tradi tion of rational, sober, statesmanlike and lawyerlike discussion of grave political problems. And with it they should encourage the study of the selected best in our pure, refined, intelligent, if not supremely great, American classical literature. un us. /S GUARANTEED vv DRUG f M If ■ NEEDS Articles you need from a Drug Store should be, above all else, of the highest quality in every way w /} talcum # *9 ■ - PîjWOfR h Plentywood Drug You Do the Choosing Here you will find the highest quality .Meajs, prepared in a variety of appetizing ways, ar ranged for your convenience in selecting those which appeal to you.
