DR.. JULIUS B0RAAS
GAVE STRONG TALK

The last speaker Of Thursday ev-
eninp on the General Association pro-
gram was Prof. Julius Boraas Of st.
! Olaf College and the State Board Of
Education Of Minnesota, who more
than pleased the audience with mes
sage replete with inspiration and
sound sense and enlivened with q
unique type Of humor which at times
threw his listeners into commissions
of laughter. His topic was Present
Day Problems" and he at once con-
densed this into the most immediate
and startling question of educational
defiation. He was an optimist but
not a blind optimist. We may be sew
eral generations older as people ne
said before the blighting effect on our
social and educational life Of the great
world war is overcome, but as in all
history, trouble has been our best
teacher, so now, though we suffer the
pains of it, educators have the privi-
lege and opportunity to struggle to
better things. And struggle clears
our minds. It should in the first place
cause us to see and do away with So
cial privilege in education. Is there
any reason why, in the land where
we are taught that all are free and
equal. one child should have the chance
TO attend school a hundred and fifty

Former Commissioner of Agriculture
And Labor Says He Did Not Or
der Any Extras For House
Which He Refused To Accept.


Bismarck, N. D., April S-H. J. Ha-
gan, former commissioner of Agricul-
ture and Labor today said that he
would pay $4,000 for the home built
under the Home building law and no
more. A case has been started by
the Attorney General to get the full
construction price of the house. Mr..
Hagan denies that he agreed to pur-
chase the home at any time whatev-
err. He also said that he never or
dered any "extras" which brought the
cost Of the house up to $S,S92.98. He
admitted that he occupied house be-
longing to the department from No.
vember %, 1920 to November IL,
1921 but he denied that he occupied
the house in any other capacity than
as tenant.
The answer further sets forth that
Misrepresentation by the plaintiff
was made and acts of certain agents
of the plaintiff and other authorities
caused the said defendant to pay to
said plaintiff a certain specified sum
of money amounting to $1,753.25. Mr..
Hagen asks that this money with ac-
cumulated interest at six percent be
returned to him. He declares that
as member of the industrial COM
mittee he was not responsible for the
committees actions.

CURRlCULA MAKING
WAS POTENT TOPIC

The intricacies of curricula making
were discussed at length by Supt.
Martha T., Fulton of the Wahpeton
public schools before the teachers of
the Elementary Section in their meet
ing Thursday afternoon.
The important points brought out
by Miss Fulton in talking on the
"Problems of the Curriculum" are as
follows:
It is clear for each grade there is
certain minimum mental age which
the pupil must reach if he is to have
good chance of success. If 50 1-3
percent is the correct estimate for re-
tarded pupils,-a percentage proba-
bly, kept down to that limit by elm
nations from the school systems,
does it not seem. as if modification
in our curriculum is necessary to take
care of those who profit but little
by the present course? Is it not fol-
ly to keep these children year after
year at tasks obviously too hard for
them until they have reached the age
when the law releases us from our
responsibility-then turn them out
with almost nothing that will be of
help to them in making a living.
Where then does the difficulty lie :?
Woodrow says the failure Of the
child in school should not be thought
of as failure on the part Of the
child but as a failure of the school to
provide the proper education. If the
lease of the individual child has been
diagnosed and a measure found for
his mental ability, should not the ef-
ficiency of the school system be
measured by the degree with which
the educational results agree with the
estimate of mental ability?
Those children Of the dull type are
going to be men and women in a few
years, compelled to take their place
in the world and earn their own liv-
ing. There are abundant opportuni-
ties for semi-skilled service of which
they take advantage but how much
help has our present restricted ele-
mentary curriculum been to them.
The problem of the misfits is not
ended in the grades. Statistics show
that SO Is percent Of the children
entering High School do not remain
for the. second year. In the average
American city not more than 40 per
cent Of the pupils who enter the frs

EXPLAINED HOW TO
DEVELOP IDEALS

Supt. F. Ray Rogers, of Tower City,
discussed "The Development of the
Proper Ideals as an Objective in Edu-
cation" before the teachers of the
Elementary Section Thursday after
noon. Some Of the main points OF
his address were as follows:
In order to measure the successes
or failures of the Gay in the school
room it is necessary that the teacher
have we'll in mind the meaning Of the
work she is attempting, - educating
boys and girls. She must know thor
oughly the detectives of education
and see to it that all work accomplish
ed during the day is to mean some
thing in realizing these detectives.
Then, first Of all. the teacher herself
must have that higher ideal Of ser
vice uppermost in mind, and do all in
her power each day to develip those
ideals in her pupils which will make
her services worth whil& knowledge
turned into achievement through the
medium of ideals, will tell whether
your days work has been well done.
Correctness of attitude can only be
secured through example on the part
of the instructor, and by the ability
of the teacher to lead the pupil to
think right. One educator has said
that all the problems Of the school
room are within the jurisdiction OF
this one task, ''teach the pupil to
think right and he will do right In
other words, cultivate proper ideals
in the work Of the child, and his acti-
vities will result in the sort OF
achievement that we would desire.
Let us place health at the head OF
our list of detectives and attempt to
present some definite ideals that we
may, hope to accomplish. It is useless
