parents and children into the paths

h.%+.- Eaucafe For the High station
of Private Life Than Pursue
the Omcial Bee.

There il no more agregious error,
says Prof. ]. ]. Britt, OF North Caro-
lima, than for teacher or parent to
hold up the ambitious and aspiring
youth. as a. stimulant to exertion, tho
probability OF his becoming presi-
dent or a governor of state. 1t is
fact of history and statistics that in
this great country Of ours only ono
man out of twenty-nine million can
reach the presidency of the United
States. When you reflect that it is
restricted to native born male citi-
liens who have attained the age of IS
years, aside from the thousand and
one other contingencies, the bright
youth may SEQ how infnitesimally
small are his chances to become
president Of the United States. He
stands less than one chance in five
hundred thousand Of becoming gov
ernor Of North Carolina, and an al
most equally slim chance OF becom-
ing a senator in congress. He stands
one chance in seventy-five thousand
of becoming a representative in con-
gress, and on infinitely less chance OF
becoming foreign minister or the
president of great college. There is
another and grander consideration.
The highway of public life is strewn
with wrecked fortunes, blighted am
billions, and blasted hopes. Besides it
opens the way for temptations to
corruption, deceit and malpractice.
You must disabuse your minds of the
that there is no greatness
outside of public life. There is an
other and grander field for develop
nent, and that is in tho exalted sta
lions of private life.

Industrial education does not mean
Learning trade" any more than
studying arithmetic means learning
trade, says C. E. Vawter. All true
industrial schools should include q
course in the sciences, both theoreti-
cal and practical, that fits one for
any industry. The object Of indus
trial training is to teach the art Of
doing. 1t trains the eye. It trains
the hand. Ono takes q course in
wood turning, not because he ever
expects to be cabinet maker or
carpenter any more than those ex-
pect to become practical chemists
who take q course in chemistry.

German, who reported that there are
still steaming riffs on the south side
| of the mountain. He stated that the
| sulphurous fumes from the openings
| will discolor silver at a distance OF
half a mile. Clouds gather above the
crater and have more than once in
recent years given rise to reports in
Portland that Mount Hood threatens
an eruption. Arnold Hayne, who has
examined the summit, however, says
that there have been no eruptions of
Mount Hood within the memory of
man.
1t is stated by George Gibbs, of the
American Geological society, that
stumps of trees occur in abundance
on the side of Mount Hood, above the
present timber line, suggesting that
formerly the heat of the mountain was
sufficient to encourage the growth of
forests at an elevation impossible
when the mountain grew cold.
Mount St. Helena, in Washington,
according to scientists, is extinct. From
tiersmen. however, say that it has
been active within the last so years.
It is recounted that in the winter of
1912 people 20 miles away could pick
up pins from the grass because of the
great light from the exploding noun
tain. NJ. w. German climbed Mount
St. Helena in 1889 and found that it had
been active within recent years. Lava
had flowed northward from the noun
tain for about 20 miles, passing
through forests and in places cooling
about large trees, so as to take cast
of their charred and scanned trunks.
The most northerly of the volcanic
piles connected with the Cascade
south of the United States
Canadian boundary is Mount Baker.
On clear days it can be seen from Pu-
get sound. George Gibbs wrote in
1873 that he had been told by officers
of the Hudson Bay company, and also
by Indians, that Mount Baker was in
eruption in 1913, and that sit broke
out simultaneously with Mount St.
Helena, covering the whole country
with ashes" 1t was reported that dur
ing the eruption the neighboring river,
The Skagit, was obstructed and that

PRODUCTIVE EDUCATION.
Gov. Montague Of Virginia, Pleads
For Manual Training in tho
Public Schools.

The social, commercial and indus
trial state of the commonwealth has
almost wholly changed in the last
thirty-hve years, says Gov. Montague
of Virginia. These changes have i'm
posed new conditions that must be
met with courage, energy and intelli-
gence, or we must fatally lag behind
in the march of progress and civili-
zation. Education for speculative
thinkers and professions will not
save the people. But few Of the
many who ever enter public schools
make their living other than by the
use Of their hands and eyes. Why
not, therefore, educate those facul-
ties and members which produce the
substance and comforts of life? Such
education is not merely material. Up
on labor all civilization primarily
rests, and the education Of this labor
will teach knowing by doing, and
blend science with art. It will beget
habits of order, accuracy, industry
and intelligence; it will produce con-
tentment and develop skill and pro-
ductive power; it will dignity labor
and energize the creative forces Of
society. These momontous needs
can be greatly facilitated. If not ac-
complished, by some forms of indus
trial education. Ample experience
affords indisputable proof of the
practical and ethical value Of this
form of education, which. in some
branches may be introduced into
many of our public schools with lit
tie, it any, additional cost; and in q
few years we shall have a system of
teaching that will popularize the free
schools and powerfully advance the
state.
