The Meaning Of Education

AT this time Of the year when the graduating
classes of the colleges and the high schools going ont
into the world of fes affairs, stepping forward into
another stage of higher education it seems proper to
venture few remarks upon the general subject of edu
cation.
It is doubtless true that professional educators are
more expert in certain phases of this subject than any
one outside of their ranks likely TO be- But it is
also true that in certain aspects of his profession the
expert educator is likely take partial view of the
subject and TO look upon it it relates the schools
and TO the teachers and to the students the schools
rather than to consider it its broader relations TO the
community and TO human life as a whole.
There is an inclination among the schoolmen, and
among American and women generally. to
e1aSgerae the Importance of education both in regard
TO the life of the individual and nregard the life of
the community "A whole.
True education it has often been said is the pro-
cess of bringing what in the individual and not
process of putting into the individual something that
not already there. This is recognized one of the
fundamental principles upon which educational systems
are established and no would support contrary
theory but in practice it is too often assumed by teach
and parents that the student gets from the school
something that he docs take into the school build
ing, and that this result of education becomes the
dominating force of his future life force for good if
the education Is good and force for evil if the edu
Gators have failed in their work.
1t is also commonly assumed that the forces of edu
cation control the development of humanity and that
he race as whole progresses regresses according 10

No reasonable would attempt 10 dcnv tba.
schools arc great aid human progress and even an
indispensable institution of civilization but the schools,
are no more than aid the force that drives human
ity along the path of progress. Education NAV helm TO
control this force, but education can never take its
place
No man or woman hold rightfui place in ihe
world with full of the happiness that civilized
humanity has right to claim, whou, education hut
when education seems to fail because the dominant
force in human affairs is education but life life Of
the individual and life of the race.
In view of the splendid record of the schools IL ;s
not surprising that people generally expect too much of
the educators. whose power after all limited in tho
manner indicated by the old proverb You cannot make

Ia lump of chalk And it is not surprising that some

The Railroad Wage Reduction

That there should be general reduction of wages
in the period of deflation following the World is
logical and inevitable as it was logical and in
evtable that there should be rise wages the period
of initiation that result of the operations.
Every intelligent and reasonable American, whether
wage capitalist industrial manager, person
not directly participating in industrial operations real
ICES this necessity, and class of workmen hope
be exempt from what fixed law of the business
world
Such being the case, it is for the general benefit
that the changes should be made slowly and gradually
rather than that there should be sudden and
break in the wage scale, result that would be in
eyitable if the reduction too long postponed 1t is
far better for concerned to keep the wheels of
industry steadily turning at reduced wages than it
would be to wait until large numbers of idle
competing for the few remaining jobs,
The railroad labor board, therefore, has acted
wisely in ordering this reduction. 1t has acted wisely
in delaying the reduction, and also in delaying it
longer And has acted wisely in ordering moderate
reduction instead of going to the full limit of demands
by railroads executives, which, while reasonable from
their viewpoint not in accord with the general
public interests at this time.
The probability is that there will be general
acceptance of the order by the concerned. The
railroad men of the United States taken whole
the equal of other class of Americans in intelligence
and IN loyalty TO the public interests. The order will
not find unanimous approval among the men; possibly
not all the thirtyone unions affected will accept it
without some kind of protest But the order fair and
reasonable, 1t will commend itself fair and reason
able men, and it will have the approval of that general
public sentiment which always strong influence in
every industrial discussion

A New German Invasion

American moving picture film producers are in
panic because of recent mporations of German films
which offered at much less than the rates charged
for the products of American managers, actors and
photographers and asserted that unless steps
are taken by the federal government to protect the
American film makers it will be but short time until
all the pictures shown in the United States of for
eign origin.
The subject is already becoming prominent in pub
lie discussion, and tho the first expressions appear be
strongly in favor of the American film makers, it is
already apparent that there something to be upon
the other side
The strongest argument in favor of American made
films is the tremendous power of the motion pictures
influencing public thought and public morality. To
permit any foreign power group of powers estab
hsh monopoly of moving picture supply, would be
comparable a public danger to permitting a foreign
power to establish control of the newspapers the
United States.
The business argument is of less Importance, but
worthy of consideration The motion picture business in
the United States represents investment of hundreds
of millions of dollars 1t employs army of and
women in various capacities 1t constitutes consider
able portion of the nations invested capital and of the
nations productive wealth. The appeal of the film
producers to the federal government for protection
reasonable legitimate and accordance with public
interest
On the other side it must pc recognized that the
American film producers have not always been guided
by strct regard for the public interests. The in
dusty is scandalously extravasant The salaries paid
to favorite performers far beyond the bounds of
reason and the profits of successful directors are equal
