EDUCATIONAL VALUE
OF WORK.

Abstract of address by joni M.
Mills, before the Department. on ru-
raj and agricultural education, at the
convention Of the National Education
al convention, now converting in Oak
land, California:
The function of the school is to
train for life. The school should be
as natural as life. 1t should not be a
place where people go to learn things
which cannot be used elsewhere. Edu-
cation is the acquisition of power and
ability to adjust ones self. 1t is not
an accumulation of facts. To give
this power the school should be in
dustriaI, cultural and social and pro-
vide equally for hand-minded and
book-minded children. A bad boy is
simply a misfit. Unfettered and al
lowed to grow, he often proves him
self one of the best boys in the COM
munity. Trying to make him fit the
school instead of making the school
fit him, often makes him e. rebel or a
truant. His very being revolts against
what are to him meaningless abstrac-
tons. His mentality can be reached
if allowed to do things with his hands
I7or his mind for which he has interest.
The entire city should be considered
the school with all the shops, stores,
gardens and homes as a part of the
plant. Any good thing that is learned
in one place is as valuable as any
good thing learned in another place.
Systematic work, play and study dur
ing longer day whether in the school
room or out should be the program of
each child. Long hours devoted to
any one line are detrimental. There
fore the day should be apportioneo
properly among various activities
No one thing in all the experience OF
youth does more to develop common
sense than work. The weakest point
in our American school system is that
there is little provision for training
boys and girls to be useful A little
work scattered in all the years of the
students life will make him more re
| liable, his reason more logical, hiI
! judgment more sound, his aspiration!
more lofty and his ambitions more
enduring. Every boy should know
how to make living when he leave:
school and every girl how to makl
ana keep a pleasant home. That HON,
or school which fails to teach a DO,
or girl to work robs the communit,
of useful citizen and beeueaths
nuisance.

ONE RULE
FOR ALL.

The Journal telephone rang yester-
day afternoon and pleasant voice
asked for the society editor. Then
the pleasant voice asked the society
editor to put notice in the People
and Events department about a lawn
party to be given by her church.
The society editor said pleasantly
that this was against the rules of
The Journal, as it was advertising,
whereupon the lady became very much
incensed, and quite took the society
editor to task.
Now, the society editor is quite used
to this. She goes through this every
day and some times several times a
day. And in every instance it is a
member of some organization that
this paper has served not once, but
time and time again.
Yesterday afternoon the lady who
felt called upon to say some things
that were very far from pleasant,
happened to be member of two or
CARNATIONS that this page has gladly
served, time and time again. One of
these is a church society. The Other
is a school society. Church and school
notices have been published over and
over again on this page, though there
is no news in either one, and these
notices are published merely as ac-
commodation. This lady evidently,
from her tone and her words, had not
appreciated any of the notices that
had been previously published for her.
She evidently had taken this courtesy
as matter of course, and she pro-
ceeded to let the society editor know
how she felt about it.
Now, the society editor did not
care how she felt about it or how
anyone else feels about it. There are
certain rules that apply to all
alike. They have governed this page
for the past ten years. and they are
the only rules that do govern it.
What any other papers in the United
States do, or what policy governs
their pages is no concern of The
Journal. These rules will not be
broken, as long as they are the rules
of this paper. Notices of entertain
Iments given for profit of any kind
cannot be carried on this page.
The Journal is glad TO say that
there is splendid sense of justice in
most women, and as soon as it is ex-
planned to them that these are rules
which the society editor cannot anG
will not break, most women accept
this rule as one which is fair anc
just. With those who have no sense
of justice or appreciation, Thu
Journal is in noway either concerned
or interested. One thing, however. il
positive applies to one applies
to all.

THE PREACHER OF FAITH.


he sat on a little pulpit
That was made of twig of tree,
And he preached US the happiest SER

That dubbed with sunshine and
glee.
His text was the blue sky burning
In the glory Of all its sweet,
And his throne was the beauty of
heaven
That lies at our very feet.
He was dressed in the softest feath-

And he sang as well as he spoke;
And in all seasons and weathers,
His duty was lifting the yoke;
Yes, lifting the yoke of our troubles

Where God had stationed the bird.

HEAD OF FAIRGROUNDS
HAS NO VOTE.

HAS NO VOTE.
Miss Charlotte Rumbold left St.
Louis last week much more of a hot
bed for equal suffrage than it had
ever been before, says the Woman's
Journal.
As head of the recreation depart
ment she had frightened the lives of
all the children in St. Louis, but her
career had no influence with the men
who run the st. Louis government
she had no vote.
Miss Rumbold organized the first
public playground in st. Louis eight
years ago. 1t was given by the We'd
nesday club with the proviso that
some woman "out of politics" be
placed in charge. "Under Miss Rum
bold's guidance" as the Post Dispatch
says, est. Louis public playground
system has become one of the largest
and best in the United States.
"She had charge of the organized
/
on seventeen Fairgrounds, and at
three lighthouses. She was responsible
for the right management of two
! public dances, seven moving picture
| shows, seven band concerts and two
| harbor boat excursions each week"
| Miss Rumbold's work was so note
worthy that she was offered a SIM
liar position in New York with a
salary of $4,000 She said she would
stay in St. Louis if her salary was
increased from 81 300 to $2,400, there
by sacrificing $1,000 a year in order
to continue her work.
Director of Public Welfare Tolkacz
said he had been informed that mem
bers of the committee opposed the
! increased salary for Miss Rumbold
because she was not voter, and be-
cause they alleged she had failed to
(! give Republicans preference in her
), appointments.
Immediately stir ran all over ST.
Louis among the women. At public
hearing which was arranged, Mrs.
William H. Utter, president of the
Women's Council, led the women's
protest.
eve mothers of st. Louis" she de-
clared, "refuse to see our children
made to pay the price of barter in a
political deal. This is not political
question. It is a question of our
civic future
"The children of today are the cit
liens of tomorrow They are our city s
main asset. On them depends its fU-
ture greatness. we will not consent
to see them sacrificed to pay political
debts"
/ Mrs. Philip N. Moore, a leader
among the women social workers of
the United States, followed Mrs. Ut
ter, and declared that Miss Rumbold
had "put st. Louis on the map as
leading in municipal recreation work.
She said that in her travels she was
constantly called on to explain why
Miss Rumbold was so little recognized
in her home city.
The women's protest made no diff
ference. The committee refused the
increase, and Miss Rumbold resigned
But the protest did show the womer
that they needed the vote. A writer
in the Post-Dispatch said: 81 mus
say l really was not keen on suffrage
until this affair of Miss Rumbold'i
came to light the other morning, ant
!. from now on l am not only in favor
of the movement, but am willing t.
show my allegiance to the cause il
any shape or FORM"
Another observed: eff the politi
clans are able to sacrifice Miss Rum
Q bold to the 'pie-counter,' it will havl
e at least one good result: 1t will max,
a suffragists of every self-respectint
S woman in st. Louis"

WHAT Is TRUTH.-The subject
of truth is an extra hazardous one
to write upon. And that simply be-
cause we know it not.

is very old question. 1t may be one
of the last arts! Often one is forced
to think of truth as a mere supersti-
ton, a figure of speech with which
to contrast a known untruth. Fun
damentally, however, truth must be.
Our bewilderment has grown from
thousands of years of enforced con-
formation to systems of untruth. 'As

Millions of years ago our ancestors
assumed to explain things of which
they knew nothing. Succeeding gen.

climax was reached when some one

confusion became doubly confound-

Diogenes may have been bit of
of cynic more than 1000 years ago
in using a lighted lantern in broad
daylight when in search of an honest
man. He would not need the Ian

of the average theatrical writer to de-

youngsters who have been we'll train

entirely of popular song numbers. at

boys and a few with older voices blend
harmOniOusly in the catchy choruses.

they sing goblin songs and at the PAN

of little George, the acting of "Cud-
