co-oRpINArINe EDUCATION.

II il rather unfortunate that In mat.
ters Of education. where nationalist
tion would certainly do much good,
there still remains the lack Of unifor.
nifty caused by forty-eight different
systems. working without reference to
one another. without the slightest at
tempt at coordination and frequently
even at cross-purposes.
The individual states might almost
~ well deal with their own railroad
and corporation problems as to exer.
else exclusive control over education.
Education Is the very foundation OF ma.
tional existence. II should be syste-
maiized and co-ordinated with the
whole force OF the government behind
II. 80 that higher standards OF citizen
xhip might result
As against the loose system Of educa.
ton that prevails In many OF the states.
the work OF the government In the
Philippines and among the Indians
through the office OF Indian affairs
might be cited. The schools of the
Philippine Islands are models OF eff.
cheney and practicability. The course
Of study recently mapped out for the
United States Indian schools shows
what the federal government can do
In matters OF education at home. The
Indian schools must train Indian youth
of both sexes to assume the duties and
responsibilities OF selfsupport and citt
zenship.
The course which strongly empha.
sizes vocational training is divided into
three divisions. The first is the be-
ginning stage, the second the finding
stage. and the third the finishing stage.
During the first and second periods
the training In domestic and Industrial
activities centers around the conditions
essential to the Improvement and
proper maintenance OF the home and
farm. The course outlined in the pre-
vocational division is unique In the
fact that. in addition to regular acad.
emic subjects. boys are required to
take practical courses In farming.
gardening. dairying. farm gardening.
farm blacksmithing. farm engineering,
farm masonry and shoe and harness
repairing. while all the girls are re-
quired to take courses In home cook.
ing. sewing. laundering, nursing and
kitchen gardening. nn'e
These courses not only prepare the
Indian youth for industrial efficiency,
but at the same time help them to find
those activities to which they are best
adapted and to which they should ap-
ply themselves definitely. During the
vocational period the correct amounts
Of academic work are, determined by
their relative value in solving the prob
lens Of the mechanic. farmer and
housewife. This sort Of education fits
the young for the real struggle in life.
What il being done for the Indian
might well be done for other Ameri.
cana Certainly there is need for
greater coordination Of the educational
system In the different states and for
making book knowledge 1T in with the
practical needs Of life.
