NEW WORK FOR TEACHERS * Our pupils should be as familiar with the exploits of Pershing and the gallant Sixty-ninth as they are with the adventures of Sir Galahad in the pursuit of the Grail, in the opinion of The Review of Reviews. Unless due caution is exercised, children fully in- structed in the minutiae of the Whisky Rebellion, ‘the War of 1812 or the Mexican war, may be totaly ignorant of the underlying causes of the pres- ent world crisis. In like manner, the geography work should be related to the living present. Europe and South America must be studied with a great- er intensiveness than = ever before. Our own country must be discussed in the light of present conditions rather than those presented in out of date texts. Pupils should know the locations of the cantonments, of the great shipbuilding centers, the nitro- gen plants and the innumerable indus- trial developments resulting from the war. : Pupils should be able to indicate how the physical features of the West- ern front have controlled the develop- ment of the campaigns. They should know the relative difficulties of cam- paigning in the lowlands of Flanders and the mountainous regions of the Vosges. They should be informed as to the geographical location and race history of the various pedples of Europe who are now entitled to self- determination. Our science, also, will be of little value unless vitalized by a study of the innumerable applications of science to meet present-day needs. Every graduate of our elementary schools should be’ familiar with elementary facts relating to such matters as the flotation of ships, the construction of airplanes and the flight of pro- jectiles. AMONG TEXAS COLLEGES The Texas Christian University basketball team will meet the Denton Normal five in its opening game of the season Thursday afternoon at 4 o’clock on the T.C.U. court.

He de fe The Tom Connally debate, which was to have taken place at Baylor University, between representatives of the Erisophain and the Philoma- thesian Literary societies Jan..-9, has been postponed to Jan.24. The prize, $50 in cash, will be awarded by €on- gressman Tom Connally of Marlin, an alumnus of Baylor. The question to be debated is “Resolved, that all ablebodied male citizens of the United States should be compelled to take one year’s continuous military training be- fore attaining the age of 25 years”. RAE The prospects are for the best bas- ket ball team the North Texas Normal College has ever had, according to J. W. St. Clair, coach. . All of the men of last year’s team are back and there are a number of very promising new men. Games are now being arranged with the State University, Baylor Uni- versity, Texas Christian University and other strong colleges. Major General Beaumont B. Buck, now commander at Camp McArthur, former commandant of cadets at Bay- lor University, and who was the first officer of high rank to be cited for bravery among the American forces in France, addressed the students of Baylor University at chapel Monday morning unon his experiences ‘at Cant- igny, upon the basis of which he was ‘both cited for valor and advanced from a brigadier to a major general. / He se He ; Trustees of Southern Methodist University announce th approval of plans for the erection of a memorial auditorium on the Campus of that in- stitution as a tribute to the men of Texas and contiguous states who have served in the world war.
