The second quality that should

THE BOY AND LEARNING.
Editor The Georgian:

IAlltl NJ Georgian
Your editorial. THE College
Man" is a most timely article.
and hits the nail on the head. The
parent that has had to hustle
from early youth out in the world
taking and giving hard knocks
that make men, seems to think
in many cases that his son should
he saved that which made a man
of him and is essential to making
a man of his boy. Hence the boy
IS sent to school for the best part
of his life, when his mind Is ca
pable Of absorbing things that
are worth While and things that
are-not taught in books at all.
The son is thus put far away
from the real activities Of life and
when he has a diploma, a frat pin
and a college yell he feels that
the world is at his feet. When
he awakeS, if he ever does. he
finds that there are very few of
the problems of daily life that
can be solved by algebra. and
that Greek roots and Latin ClaS-
s'cs play little part in the earning
of daily bread. The fact that the
great work Of the world Is Done
by hands and not by brain power
seems to be the last thing taught
in schools. Until boys are taught
that manual labor Is the highest
class of work that work with
the hands, directed by the brain.
brings in the highest wage: that
no kind of physical toll is dis
hOnorab BILE, and that true educa-
ton IS the fitting of the body and
mind to the carrying on of some
specific physical work, in which
the muscles OF the body play the
most important part. until this is
done education as given to-day Is
at fault. All education that tends
to take the mind and body Of a
boy from nature and natural life
is wrong.
A boy, coming out of a college
with d diploma, may think he is
