IL vocational work does nothing more
than reduce the snobbery it will have
accomplished a great deal.
"a few years ago there were no
snobs. because everyone appreciated
what constitutes good work. Many
children nov have no conception OF
what constitutes good joinery or good
welding and they have no appreciation
of the actual worth of a man who
builds a good machine.
"a girl who herself made a dress OF
who took a prize for cookies knows
the value of another woman who
makes artistic c~l6tn1hg."
The state board Of education ia max.
ing a complete revision of the course
Of study in high schools. The new or.
der of things goes into effect with the
opening of the schools next fall. There
will be marked increases in the voca,
tional training. and the boys and girls
will be required to take the vocational
work whether they expect to go to col.
lege or not.
"The high schools of Kansas will be
managed upon the theory that they
are training schools for young folk for
good citizens, good workers, good
wives" is the announcement of the
board.
