it. is each person's unconscious in- liueiice that is most penetrating and tar-reaching. Often we try earn- qgtly to recommend our cause to others or try to argue for certain con- victions only to find that it was the mail behind the argument which rorllllllfflfl. or antagonizeththe listen- er. In many a constituency it has happened that the clcverest political debator had the least. influence be- cause of a general lock of confidence in the man himself. On the other lisnd. the man who said least, often had the most weight because of the character behind his policy. Wisely has it been said: "What you are speaks so loudly that I can't hear what. you say."

Thtre has been a. 300d dual of discussion lately about. effectiveness in leaching. All agree that a teaicher must know his subject and must know how to impart what he knows. But more thinkers than ever are insisting today that the personality of the teacher and the principles by which he lives count for more with (he student than his intellectual equipment.

She brought into that pioneer settle- ment snd school something which they had never known before. Her personality. her manners, her speech, the way she showed her pupils how to speak and act, and her enthusiasm - foa- all that was good in conversation and social intercourse inspired the boys and girls to strive for a cul- ture above‘ anything they had aimed at before. She was. of course, an excellent teacher and diacipllnerianJ but it was the English gentlewomanl behind the lessons that molded those who came under her influence. One other pupils became a scholar of note in after years, and at the height of his attainments he said that. he never touched anything fine in English literature, or composition! without. feeling behind him the driva' of that girl's ideals.

This ls/w, which rules the teacher's efforts, is far more inuperious in the home. It is the passion of l Christian parents, in particular, to have their children become their spiritual heirs, and to reproduce in the growing child the faith and prin- ciples which mean more to than than life. The child is influenced only by what is genuine in our religion. It is necessary for the went to teach the truths of revela- tion and the laws of 00d, but it is only when iiihey sec us live our be- , liefs that they are impressed ‘by what we say.

Years when grasshopper: are at their peek the nesting of Sparrow Hawks should be very successful. They build in holes that have been gouged out by Flickera. The home is nearly always in the top of a high stump, but on the prairies a telegraph pole may be used in- stead. and they have been known to nest in rock cavities. holes in ban-ks. and even in crannies of outbuildings or artificial nesting boxes. The eggs are dbpealted on the bsrtrwood, and are not at all similarly coloured or marked. it is especially at thlsaeuon when the young family is being fed that we’ are attracted by the high, rapid call of the parents, "kiily-kliiy- kllly-killy-killy-killy" or "klee, klee, kiee." ‘ Some people prefer In name “Kestrel" to Sparrow Hawks, but certainly the term "Windhover". thou|h not scientific, is the most suitable.

Edgar Dale. Professor of Edu- cation, Ohlc State University, and member of the National Commis- eion for UNESCO, suggests what teachers can do. Reported by Emma Scott, staff writer, Journal of Arkansas Education.

What. can my school do about peace? How can I, an yordinary teacher in an ordinary classroom, add my influence toward world peace? These questions are trou- blinig all of us./

Certainly any teacher who sub- scribes to the two democratic fundamentals of the worth of pac- ple and the power of education feels under constant pressure to do something. We reognize our obligation to help build world peace, but we ask: "What can one person really do?"

It was just. such questioning which prompted an informal round table discussion last summer smonig s group of education writ- ers at the University of Chicago. Leading the discusion and serving as a resource was Dr. Edgar Dale. professor of education at Ohio State University and member of the National Commission for UN- ESCO.

The answers which came out. of that discussion were not sen- sational or dramatic. (Perhaps only the atom bomb is that, and it doesn't make for peace.) But

A person's immunity to diseases varies from time to time for a number of reasons. For example, his immunity is certain to be less (l) if he is very tired because of eltiicr physical or mental work; (2) if he has bccomc chilled from exposure; (3) if hr.- has been liv- ing where there have been over- crowding, filth, and poor ventila- tion; (4) if he lias not enough of tlie right kinds of food, containing sufficient supplies of energy, building materials. and especially vitamins; and (5) ii’ ho is weaken- ed from a recent attack of some

Liebig was not born a baron, but was the son of a poor dry- salter of Darmstadt, Germany, in which town Liobig was born in May. i803. He loved to try the experiments of which he read in old books. After many struggles for education he was befriended by the good-hearted Humboldt. Through his influence and the help of othcr friends, Lie-big went on with his studies and in time became the greatest chemist and the greatest teacher of chemistry in Europe. He gave new life to chcmistry, and train-ed men from all parts of the world. The thing that he did for England was in relation to agriculture.

In spite of the ordinary farm- yard manure, the land WHS getting poorer and poorer, because the crops took so much out of the soil that could not be replaced. Liebig insisted on the use of arti- ficial fertilizcrs. chemical sub- stances containing the PFOPGTlIBS which the land requires. Now one day Buckland had noticed ladies wearing, as part of their le-welery, stones which. by their markings. he rcsognized as fossils. These ornaments were neither more n01‘ less than food which. eaten mil- lions of years ago by animals. hid bccn converted ln- the earth into fossils. He_ discovered Zflnt stores of these coprolites, as he called them, buried deep in the earlli. ' Liqibig went to visit Lord Play- fair, a great scientist and noble- hearted man.

When Llebig was visiting Play- falr, Buckla-nd showed him his

IMPROVEMENT liN EDUCATION _

PEACE COMES IN SMALL PIECES

we did work out some. principles and techniques useful in a clau- room, in a faculty meeting, or in the committee of a professional organization. '

“Wha-t precisely do teachers do when they are working toward peace?" was the question we put to Mr. Dale. He replied, “First, peace like charity begins at home —in the classroom, in our home town.

“Second. the time to begin is right now. Quit taking the un- fruitful. backward-looking atti- tude that we should have start- ed five, ten, or twenty years ago.
