ATHENA, MARCH -. 81, 1905

Not since the days when the flower of
county division bloomed in the door
yard of the Milton Eagle has that paper
found suitable bone to gnaw on until
it took issue with the Eastern Oregon
State Normal school at Weston as an in
stitution. Forgetful that in these days
of modern progress there has been evolu-
ton in educational work-a substitution
OF the practical and the abolition of the
theoretic wherever possible, the giving
way of old foggy methods to those OF
enlightenment and practical experience
in the same ratio that has marked the
expansion OF the American idea in
all other channels of progress, the Eagle
man persists in throttlipg normal
schools, and the only reason he can ad-
vance is 'cause t aint like it use ter be
back in the states" He don't like
kindergarten work in the normal; he
don't want music there, and the com
mercial department looks to him to be
greater graft on the people than the
$500,000 state gift to Portland for the
exposition. Then, horror OF horrorsl
There's the graduating class cleaning
practical knowledge in the training de-
partment with real, live pupils 10 school
work, covering all grades up to and in
cluding the eighth. And to think the
state pays for this. It's too much for
the gympsum weed nerves, mind and
body of the Eagle, SO it thumps away
with its little hammer at state institu-
tion located in its home county. Well
there may be some solace in the fact
that the Milton Eagle and the portland
are for the same cause, but it
is doubtful il the Portland paper is cog
infant of the fact.
