Sunday Picnic.

! The picnic at the Fair grounds
on Sunday afternoon, by the
members Of the Christian
church and their friends, was
not so largely attended as was
expected, owing no doubt, to
the threatening appearance of
the weather. The dinner was
grand, and was partaken of

upon the grass, before being
finished, a slight rain disturbed
the gathering, and all adjourn
ed to the church in the city,
where Rev. Crudeson delivered
a very able and interesting

Logan were: Rev. Crudeson
and wife, Mrs. Dunlavy, Mr..
and Mrs. Longman and several
others whose names va failed

foundation for the higher or liberal
education rather than to prepare pu-
pills even in a measure, for Industrial
occupations. In general, our public
schools have been consistent with the
cultural or humanistic idea and held
persistently to courses of study adapt
ed to the requirements of the Learned
professions"
Economic Changes.
During the last half century, how
ever, the social and industrial condi-
tons in the United States have under
gone radical changes, the purpose or
mission Of the public schools, in GER
tain localities, has undergone changes
no less radical
The establishment of evening indus
trial schools in many of the large
cities and the endowment of numer-
GUS private institutions, such as the
Ohio Mechanics institute of Cincinnati
and Cooper Union institute of New
York gave the first real impetus to
industrial education. The large pat
ronage these schools enjoyed and the
obvious benefits they conferred upon
young men ambitious to better their
condition, even though but little tech
nical training was offered, should have
resulted in the earlier introduction of
vocational training in the public
schools. The demand for "hand work.
as well as head work" in the schools,
however, grew steadily stronger until
manual training was introduced into
many of the secondary schools in the
larger cities. The propaganda for in
dustrial education which thus grad
ually assumed popular form was the
result of private initiative and phil
anthropic endeavor rather than a
spontaneous movement on the part of
higher institutions of learning.
In many states, the practice Of the
public schools is still behind state leg
islation on the subject. Professor FL
lott of Wisconsin observes that:
'Were speculation permitted, it would
be to express the opinion that the
further development of public indus
trial education Is dependable upon
state initiative and state subsidy The
problem of education for industry calls
for more social power than the aver

Pres. Worst Talks on
Vocational Education

Continued from Page 1, Part One,)
fA---------~-------------
the Development of vocational Edu-
cation?
President Worst said: Frankly
speaking, the higher institutions of
learning have been. in the past, rather
opposed to vocational education. Such
training was viewed in the nature of
an innovation and inconsistent with
established educational ideals. The
end sought was considered unworthy
that so long and so exclusively had
ministered to the hereditary governing
class, more especially for the defense
of the church and the service of the
state However in more modern times
the learned professions and the leis-
ure class desiring an education for
education's sake" because the benefi-
Charles of higher institutions of learn
ing. especially in this country. The
high antiquity Of formal education
with it's traditional formulas and sym
bols, after which we patterned, natur-
ally precluded the introduction of util-
itarian subjects that should train men
for vocational efficiency.
Not until the passage of the Mir
rill act Of 1862 did the illuminating
discussions, presilinary to it's enact
ment, awaken the public to the fact
that no collegiate training existed in
this country for the higher education
of the industrial classes as such, and
likewise no preliminary vocational in
struction was provided for American
children. Nor was this lack of pro-
vision an oversight on the part of the
educators and educational institutions
Vocational pursuits were not deemed
of proper rank to aspire general or
special educational training.
Patterned After Grecian Ideal.
The founders of our educational
system patterned quite largely after
the Grecian ideal, which was cultural,
rather than after the Roman, which
was practical. Indeed, the serenity,
harmony and poise of the Greek ideal"
says w. H. Payne, in the Universal
encyclopedia, "presupposes an almost
entire exemption from Industrial pur-
suits and seem adapted to beings
leading a purely contemplative life.
In order that arithmetic may serve
it's highest purpose, Plato expressly |
states that it must not be taught for |
commercial purposes, as to shopkeep- |
ers and merchants. This type of ed |
ucation has persisted through the |
ages, and has clearly marked place |
in the schools today. The classics, !
the belles-lettres, history, music and |
art are humane studies and the gem
eral pursuit Of the sciences is best |
defended on the ground of their Gull
tural value-they interpret nature for
purposes of contemplation"
The incidental needs of a man as
a workman on instrument had but lit
tie significance among the Greeks
where slaves performed the manual Ia
Dor. Accordingly, building so exclusive
ly upon the cultural type of education.
when courses Of study were estab-
lished for common ana secondary

line of teaching. This arrangement
give both the university and the Agri-
cultural college equal interest in the
more efficient organization and in
spection Of the secondary schools, and
viii afford both city and country chill
dren equal facilities for preparation
for city or country occupations, or on
the other hand, equal preparation for
entrance to the collegiate courses OF
