Vocational
Training.

The great need of our educat
ional system is a more efficient
preparation for the problems o
actual lie.
Our schools do not prepare u.
tor living. The impracticabl,
stuff that comprises the ,averag,
education is mere burden which
the sooner got rid OF the better.
The American people are utlli
tarians, Everything should have
its use. Culture itself should
have utility or be discarded.
Our education should fit us TO,
the duties of citizenship, for the
upbuilding OF thecommonwealth
and for the private station in
life.
That education is of the most
worth that is both general and
vocational. Beside the arithme.
tic and reading and writing, let
there be manual training, Domes.
tic arts and agriculture. The
latter are just as essential az the
Former.
A knowledge of carpentry and
housekeeping is much more pec-
essary to our welfare than muAic
and French.
The parents are discussing VOC
ational training, the teachers fa-
yor it, and soon we will have it;
and a great blessing it will prove
to be.
