THE GOOD OLE WAYS.

Some intelligent women were recently discuss
ing methods of education, old and new. Strange
ly enough, or, perhaps, naturally enough--for
there is apt to be reaction from one extreme of
thought to another-the consensus Of opinion
seemed to be that some of the old methods were
not 80 fer wrong after all.
1t is all well enough to talk about making work
pleasant and allowing the child to express him.
self in his work and play. These and a good many
other kindred phrases sound well.
But these women agreed that there is still a
place for the old learning by rote" system of ac-
curing knowledge.
When it comes to multiplication tables, for in
stance, the most direc5 and ~etfectual method is
to learn by heart-to repeat and repeat a given
combination until the answer becomes merely a
reflex action. A lot of this sort of mental equip
ment is necessary to all Of US, and the only way to
get it is by hard work-just old fashioned drill or
drudgery, if you want to call it that.
But a little drudgery isn't bad for anybody;
and whether it is good or bad for us, life holds a
lot of it for most everyone. All who have achiev-
ed much have known drudgery, and did not shrink
from it.
1t is a good deal like the problem of master
Ing MUSIC OF arr; technique Is attalneu only
through hard drill and drudgery. After techni-
que is gained individuality, if there is any, will
express itself in rich har1nonies Of sounds and
colors-but not before.
The learning to do things thoroughly is the
soul of real education. The training of oneself
to do we'll whatever is to be done is the first half
of high achievement.
Drill means discipline as well as drudgery, and
discipline is another word which everyone has to
learn the meaning Of, sooner or later, and the
sooner the better.

PROSPERITY VS.. HIGH PRICES.

mo such thing exists in America as prosper
iy for just one class, unless it exists for all"
So said a noted statesman last fall, and millions
of Americans believed him, but we differ from
him.
Our present so-cal!ed prosperity is a pros
perity of the CLASSES. 1t is most emphatically
NOT a prosperity of the MASSES.
The munitions manufacturer is prosperous be-
cause Europe is clamoring for his products.
The automobile maker prospers because the
craze for the buzzwagon is on the upward slant.
The farmer prospers because Europe demands
his products.
Certain other special industries prosper be-
cause a war crazed Europe need their wares with
which to prolong the struggle.
And there the REAL prosperity ends. The
millions of salaried men and women and the more
modest wage carriers are UNNECESSARILY worse off
than they were five years ago. Thousands of
printers and publishers are facing actual ruin.
The small merchant has difficulty in making both
ends meet. Thousands Of professional men are
wondering how they can pay their rent.
High prices are the result of this half pros
perity, but ALL people have them to pay. The
Glasses have the money with which to pay, but
the MASSES are wondering where in blazes it is
coming from.

Throughout the entire system of ed.
ucation In our country, at private and
public institutions, alike. stress is laid
upon athletics to a degree that some-
times indicates a tendency to exalt
the athlete above the student. While
this may be transitory In Its nature
so far as 1t affects the Individual. 1t
is likely to leave something of perma.
nent effect on the school itself. Tra-
ditions are part of student life, and
form a potent agency whose tnflu-
ence on campus activities Is beyond
computation. Educators recognize
this and now and again have been
called upon to put forth considerable
effort to neutralize the bent of the
young mind to hero worship. Some
times this restriction swings a little
too far and the school suffers In de-
gree just as the restrictive measures
are made unduly stringent.

UNTIL 1T IS SETTLED RIGHT.

Whenever the battle is ended, though
proudly the victory comes
The futtering flags and prancing nags
and echoing roll Of drums,
Still Truth proclaims this motto in letters
of living light;
No question is never settled until it
is settled right.
Though the heel of strong oppressor
may grind the weak in the dust,
And the voice of fame with one acclaim,
may call him great and just
Let those who applaud take warning,
and keep this motto in sight:
No question is never settled until it
is settled right.
Let those who have failed take courage,
though the enemy seems to have won,
Tho his ranks are strong, if he be in the wrong
the battle is not yet done.
For, sure as the morning follows the darkest
hour Of night,
No question is never settled until it is
settled right.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
