Open Country Day School Oct. 6 The North Shore Country Day school? successor to the Girton school, will open October 6 instead of FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1919 His Audiences The Président is not doing good to his cause by his speaking tour in be-i half of the League of Nations. Were his speeches confined to the people who hear him give them, the effect might be all that is desired, but the audience of the President that re- ceives his message through the print- ed page is many hundred times larg- er than that which listens under the influence of his personality and the excitement of a crowd inspired by pa- triotic fervor. Cold type day after day reveals the many weaknesses, even that the President himself is hot al- waysaltogether sure of what is in that wondrous document that was formu- lated at Versailles. The habit of newspaper reading has grown marvelously in the United States since the 'breaking out of the war. People who never before had any interest in public affairs became vitally interested at the moment that their sons were taken into the mili- tary or naval service of the country. The government became then for them a definite thing, composed of men. whose judgment was to be weighed and measured because upon it depended the safety and the ul- timate return to them of the loved ones that they had seen march away in the nation's uniform. That habit is staying by the Amer- ican people still, and they turn to the printed word as a means of find- ing out what it is that the govern- | been | ment to which so much has entrusted is doing. In a driven three weeks such the President has undertaken in his tour it is impossible that every word should be weighed with the care that it ought to be when a matter as im- portant as the League of Nations is at stake, either to be adopted or to be rejected or amended. Tt is im- possible that he should know just what he is going to say upon each occasion, but it is a great pity that he cannot be supplied with the offi- cial reports of his speeches that he might be kept informed as to what he has said. Tt would from "monie a blunder free him, and foolish no- tion." as The Salvation Army The Salvation Army drive which is to begin on Monday of next week and to continue for seven days de- serves the kind of support that similar drives during the war period received. There is work to be done this side of the Atlantic in patching up those whom life has injured, just as there was work to be done to minister to the victims of the Ger- man guns and the German hatred. For years the Salvation Army has served the spiritually wounded, serv- ed without recognition of the serv- ice, worked handicapped by lack of funds, using energy and people for the collection of stray pennies that could with so much more effective- ness have been put into the actual work of the salvation of both body and soul which is the purpose of the organization. The Salvation Army had never been revealed to the American people un- til the war brought out its sblendid organization and, its efficient form of service.

Owing to the building trades' strike there has been such a conse- quent delay in repairing in the build- ings as to make it impossible to open before that date.
