FITTING FOR LIFE OR SUPER
FICIALITY.

In my first paper l endeavored to
show that the purpose Of our school
was the preparing in the best possible
way of the pupil for the work he has
to 10 in life; to develop efficient indi-
viduals.
How are we going about it in our
school: Are we not doing everything
according to custom, according to sys-
TEN? Certainly. we are. However.
that system is the direct cause of the
waning interest among our pupils. Our
purpose is not wrong. but we are en-
d%eavoring to prepare our boys and girls
for college, for higher education. How
many of our young people are looking
forward to n college education? one
per cent.
But the ninety-nine per cent. whit
0f themf For example. let's axe one
of our girls. She is taught algebra,
NewtOn'S laws. Latin aud historical
facts. mostly ancient. What if she
should marry and have a home? She
cannot boil an egg she cannot broil a
steak she has no more idea how TO
bake II loaf Of bread than has a cat.
She has no idea whether sugar costs
six cents or twenty-five cents Il pound.
If she had to darn a sock she would
spoil the job. She knows nothing of
! personal hygiene; she has no idea of
food values. Of domestic economy she
cannot sing she cannot play the piano.
As a wife. as a mother. as a house
keeper she would be IA failure.
VIII she do in business? She has no
idea of what business consists; she
knows not s%tenography, typewriting.
bookkeeping. correspondence. In most
any business capacity she would be AN
utter failure.
Why teach Latin. algebra. the dead
languages, the deader histories to our
girls and make them unfit for domestic
or other practical duties? Many Will
say that the study of Latin is excel
lent discipline but there is a very
serious doubt whether the particular
skin developed in the study OF Latin is
of value In solving the practical prob
lens of life.
Whether for boys or girls. this
school. for most of them, Is their nn-
ishing school Finishing for WHAT
Actual life or srperficialityy
Why not teac4f our girls practical
housekeeping. which means that they
are 10 be taught how to become useful
wives and mOthersy Why not teach
our boys how to work at the bench
or lathe, whether or not their present
apparent circumstances point to fi-
ture of manual labor?
At the same time the boys and girls
whose tastes run neither Ia the house
or workshop can have an opportunity
afforded them of studying the ways OF
business. i. X. GILBERT.

Not one a Stacker. Sixteen were
present out Of the 20. Mrs. Abney
is a fine Club Leader. She is GER
tainly looking after her flock.

doing this he found out just where
each member was and what they
were trying to do.

SCHOOLS ENLISTED TO AID
BETTER LIVESTOCK
MOVEMENT

Indications that the public schools
Of the State in the rural sections will
enter the campaign for better bred
livestock were evidenced recently
when favorable response to letters to
several county superintendent asking
assistance, was received by The Louis
vile Livestock Exchange and The
Kentucky Pure Bred Livestock Asso-
citation.
Appreciation of the seriousness of
the livestock situation was expressed
by the superintendent as well as
concern as to the success of the cam
paign. An effort will be made by
the Exchange and the Association to
reach the children direct thru the
schools and the parents in turn thru
the children. Literature explaining
the purpose Of the campaign, the
promotion Of calf, sheep and pig
clubs, the writing Of essays by chill
dren on the reasons why better bred
cattle pay will be among the features
to reach the children.
Material for the children will come
from the U. S. Government, the AS
ISOLATION and the Exchange. County
Agents already are advancing the
club movement, while bankers and
business men in the farming districts
also are aiding in many instances
with prizes.
