Jayhawkers In England Also Take Conditioning
Kansas Jayhawkers are not the only ones who have to attend physical conditioning classes. Jayhawkers in England are also forced to indulge in the muscle-limbering and muscle-building exercises. These English Jayhawkers are the children who reside at the Jayhawk Nursery at Foxhill, near Rugby, England.
Perhaps the reason why the little English Jayhawkers take their activities so seriously is that they know what war really means. The children at the Jayhawk Nursery were admitted from Birmingham, the second largest city in England, which has been a continual target for enemy bombs during the German air raids on England. The children have known what it is to live through heavy raids and spend their nights in shelters.
According to a report on Caroline Tisdale, supervisor of English residential nurseries, the children at Foxhill go through their calisthenics with eagerness and enthusiasm.

Air Raids An Old Story
At the nursery, the report states, the children have settled down to a peaceful life in the open countryside, and have all but forgotten their fear of the airplanes that once plagued them. Miss Tisdale reports the staff at the nursery especially competent. The matron is a state-registered nurse, and is also fully qualified in physical training, having obtained the diploma of Liverpool Physical Training College. The remainder of the staff consists of nurses with previous nursery experience.
Foxhill Safe From Bombs
Foxhill is the former home of Edward Fitzroy, speaker of the British House of Commons. Its isolated location is a great asset as far as possible air raids are concerned. The matron has been assured that, in the event of a heavy raid, all available help would be sent to the nursery immediately.

Country Schools Face Crisis In Teacher Dearth
The critical situation in the rural school districts caused by the wartime shortage of teachers and the run-down condition of country schoolhouses brought a group of educators together for a conference in Chicago recently.
"Despite the fact that in 1940 there were a million more children in rural areas than in cities, rural education is one of the most poorly housed enterprises in America, "rural educators concluded in a report after a study by the American council on Education and its committee on Rural Education.
C. S. Marsh, vice-president of the American Council on Education, cited figures in his report from the United States Office of Education, that the nation lacks 50,000 teachers for the 1942-43 terms, and he listed as one cause the fact that rural teachers on the average are paid slightly more than half the salaries of city teachers. He said that teachers who were once paid $75 a month can now earn $75 a week in war industry plants.
In order to meet the situation, the of emergency teachers for one year educators recommend: Licensing periods; an organized effort to present rural teaching as an "essential and crucial" type of wartime service; recalling former teachers; removal of legal bans against married persons, and a liberal attitude toward shifts from one field of teaching to another—that is, from elementary to high school or to other subjects.

Marsh also urged that "the federal government should adopt a policy of extending financial aid for education to states in proportion to their needs, because in many areas there will be no other means by which schools may be supported."

"Religion and science deal with the same world," according to the Rev. C. Fosberg Hughes, pastor of the Lawrence Plymouth Congregational church, who spoke to the Pharmacy club recently on "Religion and Changing World Views." He said that it was true that religion deals with values and science with facts, but they are still of the same world.
He explained that scientists start with facts and try to fit them into a pattern. Religion, on the other hand, starts with a conclusion or the answer and tries to interpret that faith outward, Rev. Mr. Hughes added.
"Since religion does start with a conclusion, it has a great tendency to grasp only those facts which pertain to the foregone conclusion," was the speaker's explanation of why religion is constantly in "hot-water."
The Rev. Mr. Hughes pointed out the similarities between religion and science. The spirit of science is fundamentally spirit of religion. They are both seeking the truth. Religion seeks it by establishing creeds, and science seeks for it by formulating laws. Neither one of these are deity; instead they are only attempts of seeking the truth. If a law or a creed helps in uncovering this truth, it is excellent; but if it comes between the person and the truth, it is definitely bad.
