ter the high school. IN this country.
BY reason Of that fact. there is coming
defnitea movement toward the es-
Enlistment OF schools where those
earning a living every day can carry
on a systematic education.
Benefits Of Schools.
AS to the benefits Of such schools
Commissioner Brown pointed out, first.
that they enable a person in a trade
to have more skill In his trade. Sec
ond, they enable a man in one occupa-
tion to outgrow that occupation and
rise to a profession above it. BY their
aid the electrician becomes the cleo
trical engineer. Third. they enable a
person TO enlarge himself outside OF
his trade. Schools such as the Y M.
c. A. institute, according TO the speak
er, are the skirmish lines leading an
advance of the main column OF educa-
ton.
Let me outline an ideal OF eduea-
ton to which this country should at
tain" the commissioner continued. In
such a country as ours the real sys-
tematic education Of schools should
not close before the citizen has at
tanned his majority. The republic
needs for its work the degree of edu-
cation which no man can attain with
out keeping on until his majority is
reached and by devoting some part Of
each year up to that time for better
citizenship And / will say that some
part of every year of mans life
should be given some sort of we'll
ordered education"
