First, education all over this coun
try today is unselfish service. Men
and women who want to make money
! do not enter the profession, or if they
happen in, soon get out. Teachers
are ambitious for their school OF
their department, only incidentally
for themselves. They have struggled
hard to keep up appearances, they
have been tempted into more remun-
eratice callings but they have almost
never gone on strike or loafed on the
job
Education has come to be highly
specialized calling, demanding the
best brains, the finest personalities,
and anywhere from two to eight or
ten years of expensive study above
the high school. Administrators are
expected to be scholars, business
men. social leaders and alas! public
ora tors. Educational policies are as
much matters of technical skill and
experience as the direction Of bust
ness corporations or the conduct of
the courts.
at must be remembered that edu-
cation is constantly becoming more
live and practical. Liaison between
school and life has been developed to
remarkable degree. Cooperation
is the slogan everywhere, and we of
the generation of Moses do not real
ize the advances that have been made
FINALLY, contrary to all popular
belief, public education is administer
ed with great economy. Every school
man knows that only as over-crowded
quarters and overloaded staff and
equipment approach the breaking
point does the chance of relief come.
College presidents wear out their
usefulness in one place and pass on
largely because of the enmities they |
have aroused by denying this and
that form of departmental expansion.
Modern Education Costly
"This very practical education we
demand is most costly because of its
larger need for space and equipment.
idaho has a glorious future in her
promised land. But only as she de-
velops unity of ideals and pride in
herself The largest contributing
actor. will be the readiness of hand
and brain, and the united loyalty Of
he product of our public education.
Markets may come and go, prices rise
and fall, but the procession of boys
md girls passing into maturity is
constant and unchanging."

MERRY SEX WAR ON
Bureau Of Engraving and Print
ing in Throes of Controversy.
Plate Printers Union Charges That
There Are Too Many thrilling
Girls" In the Bureau.

| Westinghouse merry sex war Is

| tory
The war started when the Plate
Printers union in the bureau of en-
, craving and printing made formal
charges that there were too many
'trifiing girls" in the bureau and that
they were retarding the efficiency
and the amount of production OF
paper money. In their charges the
plate printers intimated that TOO much
time was spent by girls employed In
the bureau in administering little
dabs of paint and powder" In fact
it was intimated that the plate print
tiers objected to ''fiappers" being en-
ployed in the bureau
The plate printers let themselves in
for trouble.
Federal Employees Union No. 1O5,
embracing the women employees of the
bureau, at an indignation meeting,
condemned the attitude of the plate
printers, denied their charges and de-
plored their giving publicity to what
they alleged to be a misstatement OF
facts
Miss Gertrude McNally, secretary
Of the union, declared that the records
of the examining division showed
that the greatest percentage of spoil
age of printers work is for sly
wipes" lifts" and "breaks," which
spoilage could in no way be attributed
to the assistants.
plate printers are paid by the
piece rate and in many instances the
presses are speeded up for production
at the expense of the quality of the
work" Miss McNally stated.
1t is predicted that the charges of
the Plate Printers union will result
in considerable friction in the future
between the printers and their assist
ants, since If inef1iciency does exist
the responsibility for the same has
been placed by one side on the other.

since every item is under separate

out how long a pound of coffee, say,

Following the same plan, Mrs.
System has also alphabetical her
recipe book, keeping the various

head for ready reference in getting
meal. Incidentally, also, she has
long kept scrapbook of clip
pings on domestic architecture,
alphabetizing the material under the
various rooms of the house, with
marginal notes and drawings OF

her fancy or suggested itself at the
moment. She made use of these

cite, however, was a concrete pic
ture of the housewives own taste,
and was planned to meet the needs
of her own environment.
All of which leads me to say that
the test of efficiency is, after all,
largely an individual one, so far as
the domestic menage goes. 1t is not
at all essential for a woman to
carry about the sort of "hard boiled"
attitude toward life that so many
efficiency experts seem to think nee
essary. Nor does it mean divorcing
ones self from everything savoring
Of personal bias. Each home
maker has her own peculiar problem
to solve, and efficiency rules, as
such, must either bend or break to
meet individual requirements. There
is, however, no reason in the world
why the solution should not be both
practical and feminine, and that
this is quite possible the uniques

Save the Kitchen
Mileage and Get

By Harriet Sisson Gillespie

By Harriet Sisson Gillespie
HSO CUT down kitchen mileage
is obviously most important
to the servantless housewife
to-day, for, laying aside the bogy of
technical efficiency, 1t is as "plain as
a pikestaff'' that one pair of women's
hands and two ever so swift fen1i-
nine feet can accomplish only a frac-
tion of housewold swork unless
soupcon Of gray matter is mixed
with it. Now, q leading citizeness of
Plainfield, N. j., herself a writer
and the wife of literary man, was
keenly aware of this fact, and al
though she was no efficient expert
when she bought an old house of the
niid-Yictorian era with certain
quaint Gothic tendencies and started

with the kitchen.
A Marathon Around the Stove
Since hers was to be servant
less household, and the service por-
tion as she found it was rambling
and impractical, she set about bring
ing the two ideas into harmony.
She aimed to make her culinary do
main adequate not only for family

outside interests, but also to pro-
vide hospitality for the guests
who were seldom absent from their

figures. To her astonishment she
found she was walking at the rate
OF 5,064 feet a day, or nearly 365
miles year, and this did not take
into account the time spent in set
ting the table, clearing it away and
going back and forth to the cellar.
Of the entire amount of mileage she
discovered that moro than half of
the 6,064 feet was consumed in walk
ing from the kitchen table to the
stove, from the stove to the further
pantry, from the pantry to the ice
box and from the pantry to the
work table in the kitchen.
On being confronted with these
appalling statistics the housewife be-
gan Immediately to look for a rem
