HIGH SCHOOL EFFICIENCY

Two Chicago high school princi-
pals have collected statistics in an
effort to prove that high schools do
not create a disinclination for manual
labor.
Principal Began, of the Lane
Technical high school, says 500 stu
dents earned $S1,5S9 during the
summer vacation, and 125 plumb
ers' apprentices, who attended class
only a portion of the day, earned an
additional $2,275, Principal Wit
mer, of the Proviso township high
school. says all but II of his boys
worked during vacation. and 1928
workers earned 1895.
The figures are interesting but
me fact must be admitted that
neither school is typical of the or
dinary high school. One is a tech
nical institution, with a selected list
of students and the other is a sub
urban school, with students living in
environments favorable to industry
and initiative.
"One criticism made of high
schools in general is that they are
not practical for the boy who does
not contemplate going to college.
The Chicago principals have sug-
gested a test of efficiency. and while
figures showing the earnings of stu
dents may not be conclusive as to a
schools worth, they help prove
whether high school students are be-
ing equipped for life's work
The criticisms have not been di-
rected at manual training courses,
but rather against curriculum de-
signed primarily for preparing boys
Tor college, when a great majority
OF high school students never enter
college. 1t is also urged that the
social atmosphere of high schools is
undemocratic and prejudicial to the
normal development OF young peo-
pie destined to work for a llvins
The Chicago incident may afford
a hint to Portland high school prin-
cipals. II this city's high schools
are educating a student body that is
in demand by the employers of Ia
Dor, and II the students are anxious
to I'LL the demand, announcement OF
the fact would be the best advertise
ment Portland high schools could

AN OFFICIAL RAILROAD DAY.

AN OFFICIAL RAILROAD DAY"
The city council has exercised due
and proper caution in preparing for
the new bonding election, and while
many may have chafed at what ap-
peared unnecessary delay, there is the
assurance that there will be no fur
ther balks in the action. The people
have not changed in their sentiment
regarding this matter since that day
last December when they voted so
practically unanimously in favor Of
the bonds and OF progress, and there
Is no reason TO believe that the vote
will be any the less unanimous at
this time.
The delay has not been 80 serious
as 1t might appear, as the grading
upon the right-of-way has been press
cd and a great amount OF work has
been accomplished Every visitor to
the grade voices his surprise at what
has been accomplished and gives his
approval to the methods being em-
ployed. The city is getting full value
for the money II is expending, and the
grade will be ready for the ties and
rails as soon as the funds from the
bond issue can be made available.
Before the date OF the bond cleo
tion there should be a day set apart
as railroad day." and every voter
within the city should be given the
opportunity to VISIT the camps and
inspect the work that has been done.
To tell them what has been accomp-
lished Is not enough. II is work
that must be seen to be appreciated.
II all the autos OF the city could be
placed at the disposal OF a committee
during one-half day every voter
could be taken out along the grade
and given look at what is being
done with his money. The graders
are now nearly to the Applegate riv-
ar. and by election day will have the
grade practically completed that far
The culverts are being built in a most
substantial manner, concrete tile
manufactured by the local plant be-
ing used this industry giving work
to many men who probably would not
be employed II the railroad work was
not progressing.
Railroad work thus far has been
prosecuted in only small way. but
It has had material influence upon
the community, indicating the great
er prosperity to come with building
upon a larger scale, and the develop
ment OF the outlying districts that viii
follow the completion OF the road.

KEEPING rAE DOLLARS AT HOME

The Rogue Valley creamery is in
creasing It's output with every week,
and given the support that is its due
will become one oil the leading indus

cry Is cooperative in the fullest sense
OF the term, and stock in it was given
to others than dairymen simply be-
cause ii was necessary to have the
cash on which to organize. The drst
principle OF the creamery manage
ment is TO return to the farmer every
cent that can be returned in the price
OF his cream. The creamery there
fore pays from three to four cents
a pound more for butter fat than is
paid by other creameries, thus giving
the producer the immediate return of
all there is in the industry. There is

no attempt to buy cream at d low

the stock greater as the dividends are
paid through the cream checks. For
this reason there is less profit to the
retailer In handling the Rogue Valley
butter, and the consumer is Impress
cd with the importance OF making
special demand for Rogue Valley but
ter, and thus keep the dollars at
home. The local creameries are not
yet making butter enough for home
consumption, but the manager of the
Rogue Valley institution says that
unless there is special endeavor
made to use the home product he will
have to hunt for a market outside,
and that with outside butter being
consumed in Grants Pass.
Boost for home industry, eat the
home product, and keep the dollars
where they will have a chance to
