Representative Philip Campbell OF
Kansas praised the housewife who
knows her art in an address before the
graduating class of the Mckinley Manual
Training School at the National Theater
yesterday afternoon He also declared
that there Is tendency in this country
TO educate the people away from the
idea that labor is honorable and dignified
In beginning his discourse the repre-
sentative said: We are building in this
country a new nation. We are building
it of Germans. French. Italians and
many other nations. We are in the
midst of this building process. In this
evolution we have given the type physi-
cal and moral courage
Continuing. he declared:
We are a nation OF thinkers, and we
have learned how to apply our thinking
The secret of our success is that we have
applied knowledge more effectively than
any other nation. Germany also is edu-
eating her people in the small, common
place, practical things. and that is the
reason she Is manufacturing so many
things and manufacturing them we'll.
There has been some tendency to ed
ucate the people away from the idea
that labor Is honorable and dignified.
Many schools have been educating young
men away from the farms and the forges
ana an. l. the young women away from the
swinging back. for this graduating class.
and the splendid school II represents, is
tangible evidence that it is swinging the
other way. There is no more hopeful
sign in American life.''
What Bed Coffee Will Do.
Turning to the young women of the
class he said:
The art Of cooking is one that we have
| not pursued In the United States to any
appreciable extent. ! firmly believe that
bad coffee has more to do with the cur
rent domestic infelicity than any other
element. Nothing will start a man out in
the morning in worse form than de-
| natured coffee. My dear young women.
make a good cup of coffee above all other
things.
There are false notions about manual
work" he said. 'insidiously striking at
American life. The boys seem to be try
ing to get away from manual labor.
| They are coming to the cities from the
farm. seeking not necessarily easy jobs,
but not manual jobs The result is often
shipWreck.
| The European often wonders why the
American does so many new and untried
things. Because he is not afraid to
| launch out according to his conviction;
| because he is not afraid to break conven-
| ton: because he does not recognize that
any disgrace attaches to the hard, steady.
relentless work which throws bridges
across mountains, spans the wild rivers.
| tames the prairies and makes continent
blossom with prosperity.
Don't forget 1t is only the unthinking.
| the benumbing toll that is degrading: not
honest thinking labor. Only by working
| can your mission be accomplished anu
your debt to the community. for having
supplied you with this education, be re.
paid"
