land City, Ind, for three consecu-
tive years, one hundred per cent of
the grammar school pupils-every
last one of them-have continued
right on, after graduation, into the
high school.
DIR. Claxton gasped with surprise,
then packed his grip. By nightfall
of the same day he was well on his
way toward Oakland City.
There he met Superintendent Rea-
Wis. From that young man he ac-
quired the valuable information
which he now means to incorporate
In suggestions for radical changes
in school methods throughout the
country.
81 had never before heard" said
DR.. Claxton, "of town where, for
three years in. succession, all of its
grammar school pupils remained in
school. knew there must be some
plan, some system, some cause, which
had brought about this educational
phenomenon"
Planning Study Program.
He and his aides are busily en-
gagged in formulating plans for a
national pupils study program, fash
Toned after that devised by Superin-
tendent Reavis.
1t is a rather novel thing said
the commissioner. 81 foEnd that in
Oakland City, children didn t GO to
school because they had to, but be-
cause they liked the work. The
Oakland City system installed in their
minds habit and regularity of study,
and through these, a genuine love
for their studies. 1t consists of a
definite arrangement in advance for
the entire term of the exact hour of
each day when the pupil shall study
his or her lesson, and the exact
length of time to be devoted to each
subject.
at has been found that the chill
dren, knowing just what they have
to face, will study more diligently;
and take a great deal more interest
in their lessons than they formerly
did under conditions such as exist in
most public schools.
The commissioner says he is going
to preach broadcast the doctrine OF
the "study program" ne found on,
there in Indiana.

THE STUDY PROGRAM idea
Philander P. Claxton, o. s. Com
missioner Of Education WIN
Preach the Doctrine Of
Study Program.

Washington, Jan. 26.-For years
educators have been seeking method
by which the high schools Of the
nation might be filed up. It has
remained for Philander P. Claxton,
United States Commissioner of edu-
cation, to find it, or perhaps it would
be better to place credit where it Is
due, and yield the honor to William
c. Reavis, the youthful, smooth
shaver superintendent of schools at
Oakland City, Ind.
One of the most discouraging fea-
lures of public school work as now
conducted is the tendency of so msny
Of the pupils to drop out after fin
ishing the grammar grades, failing
to continue the pursuit of education
into the high school. How to remedy
this obvious weakness of the sys-
tenn has long been puzzle to DIR.
Claxton.

One thing we forgot--it must be
good stock.
This costs money, you say. On,
yes. any work really worth while
costs money. But do you know it
costs you but very little more
than "printin struck : OH. .
And there's lots of satisfaction in
having piece of printing done in
stead Of "job Of printin' - struck
off. And it pays big returns.
All really successful business
men have printing instead OF
"printin You judge man and
40 do we, by his stationery.
How's yours?
We don t "strike OF" any letter
heads and envelopes-but we can
print some fine ones.

This is a printing shop where print
ing is considered a work Of art and
not just a Job of printin'.
The devil-a printers deyil-can
"strike off few" on any old press,
But to do a piece OF work that will
attract NOTICE worthy Of q gentle
man, requires a careful man at. a
well-appointed and well-selected
case Of type. Next a good press
(our Colt s runs Perfectly, good
ink, not lamp p-black-that's for
printin and. then an artist to
make that form ready. = Then a
good pressman who has an eye for
accurate register. Let the devil slip
sheet it. put it in the drying rack.
Then you have piece of real
printing-one, two, three or four
colors. we do this. A piece OF
"printin' struck off, is a sad at.
tempt at one color and then every
sheet is different.

You have often heard the express
sion "I've got little 'printin
to have done and l run down to the
Job Office and have it struck off.
OF course, there are lots Of shops
that do '.printin and are right
fully called job Offices. And too,
if you want a little "printin' y
"struck off, they are the places to
go.
But it you are in need Of print
ing - that is printing, beginning
with big "P' and ending with a
"g" it's most likely that you will
|'go to a place like the Post Press
whose shop is on Main street in the
town of Newark---the State College

Just across the street.
This is not a job office and we dt

Youth And Are
fFrom Golfers Weekly.)

Youth has it's advantages, but
so has age, although these latter
are not so easily understood. Color
and passion should fade not into
dullness, but into pictures as love-
ly as, hose of twilight or the star
set night. Age should be the time
when .s.r.t.o.as -.
with an eye made quiet by the
power
OF harmony, and the deep, power
Of joy,
We see into the life Of things.
In the greatest, perhaps, of all
English meditative poems are cell
ebrated these gains: the mind to
hear the still, sad music of human
ity. with it's power to chasten and
subdue; the presence that disturbs
us with the JOY of elevated
thoughts; he
sense sublime
OF something far more deeply in
terfused, '' 80
Whose dwelling is the light Of set
ting suns.
Parents. if they are fortunate i'll
their children and in themselves,
combine the advantages of matur-
ity with those that have gone.
They know again, with love, but
without storm, the interests Of all
the human stages. They live in
; toys, in romance, in ambition, but
| with selfishness purged away, with
hopes purified, with hearts thai
: seek for the young only such ex
$ periences as shall lend value ant
beauty to them always. -
