CHILDREN WILL BE GREAT USE
IN PRESENT AND FUTURE
NEEDS OF CRISIS.
National Commissioner of Education
? Says Attendance in Schools Should
Be Rigorously Maintained.
"Twenty million school children run 1
do quite a bit." said P. I'. Claxton. '
United States eommissicner of <-<iu< u
tion, who was in Wheeling yesterday.
"Of "course the war itself i.-> a thin;;!
for grown-up people, but the children
can*be very useful in the auxiliary
pui^hits."
T^'o great ways. -Air. Claxton see?. |
in which the children may be of good
to their nation ? good i-n the future and;
good in the immediate needs of the
national crisis. I
t ' Keep Up Attendance.
'.We must keep the children in
Jjchool. The department will endeavor]
to maintain the highest efficiency in;
Ettefidance. The children are not all i
needed on the farms and in a few '

I've been unable to sleep all nisht

| -Mr. Claxton has plans which he is
I constantly suggesting to school boards
! for the most efficient use of the chil
dren in the present and future heeds.
(The department of education is main
tained to aid the schools. It has no
authority. M r. Claxton says he ;?x
: peers the patriotism of the children
and the teachers and superintendents
ito carry them on where in tiines of
peace it would take millions of dollars
worth of persuasion.
Children Invaluable.
I "Three-quarters of a billion dollars
[worth of food could be raised this
i .summer by the children of the garde.,
;age. o to 14 years. The average child'
i could make $50 a month and there are
[six million children," he said.
; Mr. Claxton is urging all school
i hoards to keep some of their teachers,
[say one to 150 children, at work all
summer directing the children's par
; dens at home." Four or five hundred
dollars a year would be added to the
I teacher's salary, j
Have Much Spare Time.
Not only the children who go on
the farms actually, but those who
have spare time in the summer or even
who hold other jobs could get tho
healthy exercise 'of the garden. Mr.
Claxton says that not more than 15
per cent of the children really work
steadily in the summer.
To provide for the immediate needs
of the nation and future as well, Mr.
Claxton Is trying to have schools keep
open rheir manual training and domes
tic science departments all summer.
He recommends intensive work anion;;
the girls and young women in making
bandages atuV Red Cross supplies an-,
among the boys a thorough training
in machine and carpenter work. It is
hinted that women may eventually
have to he used in this annual labor.
Friends' Garden Clubs.
In speaking of the garden work Mr.
Claxton said the grown-ups who
weren't receiving any outdoor exercise
would tind helping "in the gardens in
the evenings more profitable, both as
to ?ood food and good health, than
golf.
He told of another system for inten
sive nardrn work. Down in Georg.a
there is a jrirls' agricultural school.
The girls will go home this spring and
