old IDEAS ARE
PUSHED ASIDE
Schools Must Have Contact
with Activity Of People.
"WHY NOT TRAIN FOR LIFE?"

Higher Grades Are More, Than Mere
Incubstors For Embryo Lawyers,
Doctors, Teachers and Preachers.
Domestic Science and Domestic Arts.
Schools will attract and hold the at
tention of the public in proportion to
their contact with the everyday life
and activity of the people. The old
ide., of high school being an incuba-
tor for embryo lawyers, doctors, teach
ers and preachers is being pushed
aside.
The school people-the real. live,
wide awake school people-have seen
this proposition clearly for some time,
but they have been afraid of what the
general public might think. The pub
lie has sensed that there was some
thing out of gear in on: school ma
chinery. but ii was afraid of what
the education expert might say. And
have been seesawing.
Boys and girls welcome any study
that tastes of everyday life and activ-
ity. The little girl in the lower grades
mothers her doll. makes her clothes
and mends them and cooks wonderful
dinners on a homemade stove of brick
out in the back yard. She keeps house
and plays her part in a mimic world
because 1t is the only outlet for what
she sees of the activities of the world
IN which she is eventually to take her
place. The years slip by, and she is
ready for the high school. She must
put her doll aside, and she can no
longer with dignity cook on the brick
stove in the back yard. Her own feel
ing would prompt her to go forward
In sewing, cooking and the other house

in which no such course Is offered. so
she loses an interest that had been

IN OTHER WORDS. OUR HIGH
SCHOOLS ARE PUTTING A PRE-
MUM UPON WORK WHICH HAS
SOME MENTAL AND CULTURAL
VALUE INSTEAD OF COMMON, EV-
ERYDAY HOME VALUE.

Too much of our school work has been

man and the junior years. are used for
sewing, pattern making, designing and
a study of cloths and materials of va
rious kinds. 1t Is the aim of this
work to have a girl strong enough to
design garment or plan wardrobe
nationally. to alter a pattern that does
not tit or suit her. In course of
study of one period per day this would
be impossible. but with eighty minutes
each day of her school year at II sew

err out of the ordinary in that it seems
so thoroughly commonplace and so
disable in the home life that most Of us
have to live 1868 days in the year.
There is nothing that is fancy, but a
very great deal about breads of va.
riOus kinds. yeasts, baking powders,
the care of sinks. refrigerators. etc.
AS one goes through this high school
and sees the girls mt this work there
is the feeling that many of them are
to be saved from the disappointment
that comes to most young housekeep-
ers.
That this work In Henderson appeals
to the girls is shown by the fact that
out of total enrolment Of 126 girls
eighty-seven IRE taking domestic sci
ence or domestic arts.
