that it made no particular matter about the training of the mass of men pro- vided we properly trained some men as leaders Although it is easy to understand the advantage of training to an indi- vidual, we are just beginning to see that 1t is necessary also to a community that all men should be trained Our great task lies right hereto persuade the communi- ty tha. it is bound to tram every child for the community's own sake.
 Universal Training.
 Let us go on without tlnchIng and see where this leads us. We nun now square ly into the doctrine of universal training at the community's expenset compulsory if need bel. which is necessary in de- raocracy. There is no escape from 1t. We may obscure the question as we please We may bcfog it with pig words. We may drag it into political discussion. We may hatch big theories to cackle It down. We may smear it over with char ity. We may empoverish the state be- cause we are afraid of pauperizing men who are already so lean that they can distinguish hunger from hackache. But there 1t stands-a stark economic fact the state must train every child at the rublic expense: and it must train him to usefulness And an economic fact is also a moral fact
 And the right training of all the people would come pretty near to ending all our trouble--to removing our difficulties, economic political and ethnological. For Instance. you have seldom known we'll trained white man and a well-trained negro in Alabama--both men of economic worth-to have difficulty because one is white and the other is black. or for any other reason; and you will seldom know such cases But one untrained, worthless white man or one untrained.

legacy to Harvard college Men once shoveled iron ore by spades On Lake Superior tons of ore are now llfted rom the earth by machinery, and it is not once moved by the muscle power of man till it becomes steel rails and they are laid on the roadbed. 1t is precisely this Kind of trained activity that has enabled the United States to take the lead in the in- dustria world. Here is the whole secret of it--training from the very bottom up.
 A Comparison.
 ",ro show the sheer financial difference between an untrained and better trained community. compare North Caro- lima and Iowa. They are both agricultural states. They have approximately the same area and the same population. They have approximately the same number of farm CTS. Yet the value of the farm products of Iowa Is more than four times the value of the farm products of North Carolina; and the value of farm property is eight times as great. A farmer makes more than four times as much in Iowa as he does in North Carolina, and farm hand receives twice as much. The difference is not so much a difference in soil as 1t is difference in men. Much of the farm work in North Carolina is done by untrained negroes It Is practically all done in Iowa by intelligent and trained white men. It
 
 and a trained man.
 'Economic civilization moves forward only as the whole mass of activity be- comes more efficient Are you lawyer? Your dirt shoveler will never pay you large fee; but a trained man who works machinery may. Are you physician? The same is true. Are you a merchant? Your untrained dirt shoveler can never buy much from you with his 70 cents a day But man who earns s4 day is worth having as a customer. Are you a railroad? Your untrained man has little money to travel and nothing to haul Are you a cotton mill? Your untraned man or woman can't buy much cloth on low wages Whatever you are you fare bet ter if all men about you are trained, and you fare we'll in proportion to the number that are trained.
 The Central Thought.
 ''This. then, is the central thought of the whole matter. It pays an individual to be trained. It not only pays commun- ity, but 1t Is absolutely necessary for community that all the people be trained. And this simple and obvious truth leads far
 Tt brings new conception of society to us A satisfactory society in our mod ern democracy cannot be made up of ''educated" men and ''uneducated" men. So long as education is regarded as privilege and not as a right and uni yersal necessity. the community will stand still in activity. in thought. in char acter. The proper standard to judge men by Is an economic standard not an academic one This changes the whole view of life and makes our whole sys- tenn of social thought face another way. Now, 1t is this economic and not the privileged structure of society in the Uni ted States-as far as it has yet been worked out-that has given our country its great place in the world. And 1t IS this economic and non-privileged struc- ture of society that has given the north ern and the western states the lead of the southern states.
 Now the idea which we inherited was

worthless negro may cause trouble throughout a whole country. For this reason it is important to train the child of every hill-billy, of every politician, Of every negro in Alabama. In every case 1t is an economic reason, not a merely personal reason, not a race reason, not class reason. In an ideal economic state, if we were to construct 1t as ruthlessly as Plato constructed his ideal republic. we should kill every untrained man; for he is in the way. He is a burden and he brings down the level of the economic efficiency of the whole community.
 Clear thinking brings us home to this truth A knowledge of our own history brings us home to the same truth. The one great structural error made in our past was an economic error. We shall erase it only by an economic correction. l said in the beginning that we are patriotic people Sound economic action is patri- otic action always
 Our Land.
 And there is another quality that is strong in us We love the land that we were born to-literally the land-this ground this soil this earth. Our fath- CTS were land-hungry, land-loving end our impulses answer to their habits. Those of us that do not till the earth still Keep a love of 1t. Even those of us whose trades have exiled us to great cities feel homesick if we do not come at short intervals and touch this soil. This is always our old home. The call of the earth brings us back; and the odors of southern springtime stirs deep emotions In us.

Afternoon and Night.

Yesterday afternoon the executive com mittee held a meeting at the Hotel Hill man. B. B. Valentine of Virginia, Rob- well of Louisiana, and s. A. Mynders of Tennessee, being the members present. Although the proceedings of the meeting were not given out, 1t is understood that officers for the conference were nominat- ed. The matter of the election of off, eers will probably be brought before the conference at this mornings session. It is said that President ogden desires to retire but the members of the conference are urging him not to do so.
 When the conference met last night President ogden presented Prof. c. AL fonso Smith, professor of English in the University of North Carolina, who dis cussed in a broad and scholarly manner The Practical and Literary in National Life"
 In the absence of B. l.. Wiggins, vice. chancellor of the University of the South for an address last night, and who was detained a his home on account of ill., ness, Professor Dennemer of the Sewa- nee faculty addressed the conference, talk ing Dr. Wiggins' subject, standards of Admission to Southern Colleges" He handled his subject we'll and was often applauded.
 President ogden then Introduced to the audience Mrs Thorp of Cambridge Mass, the daughter of Henry Wadsworth Long, fellow She is travelling with the Ogden party.

 Alabama, gentlemen. has her face turned toward the light. Within the next few years we hope to see established throughout the state a well sustained, well organized well graded system of public schools, offering to every child an opportunity to prepare himself for use ful living With this end in view the superintendent of education is urging upon the citizenship of every county he visits the necessity for local taxation to secure funds with which to maintain the schools, the importance of well quali- fled teaching force to develop the minds and characters of the children, and the need of expert supervision to direct and supervise educational affairs. The re- ception he has received everywhere leads him to conclude that the people are be- coming aroused on the subject of public education"

 From Individual Viewpoint.
 Looked at from the point of view of the individual, 1t Is clear then, t..;t it pays an individual to be trained But how is it, looked at from the point of view of the whole community? If 1 want man to shovel dirt, perhaps I do not need a trained man-I want a man for 70 cents a day. not for S2.50. If everybody in a community be trained. who will shovel dirt and chop the wood and draw the water? Does not every community re- quire a larger number of untrained, low priced men?
 "No!
 That is the fatal doctrine that our fathers fell Into and lost leadership there by. It is this doctrine that has cost the southern states a 100 years of progress. for this is nothing but a sequel of slavery. If every man in the community was trained, you could have your dirt show eled more cheeply than now. trained man would drive his scoop to your dirt, attach it to an electric wire and snovel your dirt more accurately, more quickly. more oheaply than any negro in Ala bama can do 1t. That sort of activity is happening all over the industrial world. Men once begged shoes by hand. They are begged much more cheaply by machinery. Whole towns are given to making; and a man who invented shoe-pegging machinery lately died and left a great
