No. 1-Whaf Is Educationo

No. What Is Education?
Definitions Of education are varied
In scope, ranging as they do from a
brief sentence to a complete book of
several hundred pages. The defini-
tons. of education which are carried
in brief sentences usually are incom-
plete or unsatisfactory and sometimes
are misleading. 49,.
The dictionary tells us that educa-
ton is the systematic DEVELOPMENT
and cultivation Of the natural powers
by inculcation and example: or. more
simply. instruction in an institution
Of learning.
The first definition. though brief
and generalized is substantially cor.
rect. The latter, though apparently
accepted by some people, is not a fair
statement of the meaning of the task
to which over 1000 teachers are
consecrating their lives in our coun.
try alone.
Educa ton is not merely inSruction.
If it We're. there would be many more
educated persons than there are If
all one had to do were to be physical.

by competent instructor of any
subject. no matter how abstruse.

HUSBAND DEFENDS
 GIRL BANK BANDIT
Texas Case Brings to Light
 Marriage in College

Austin. Tex, Dec 14.-P@ Otis Rogers, young Amarillo attorney who maintained secrecy regarding his marriage last year to Rebecca Bradley while they were students at the University of Texas. today in aiding in defense of his wife who Is charged with robbing the Farmers National bank at Buda.
 Married at Georgetown, Texas, October, last, they continued thelr university courses, the husband graduating from the law college while his bride was awarded a bachelor of arts degree. They decid- ed that Rogers income as an at torney might prove inadequate to support home and agreed to separ- ate while he developed his practice.
 Rebecca obtained position as stenographer in the office of Dan Moody, attorney general and govern or-elect, and continued her univer- sity work with the view of securing a higher degree. Rogers opened a law office at Aamariio and so well did they guard their secret that Rebecca's mother with whom she lived here, denied the marriage when Otis announced he was coming 10 the defense of his wife.
 Discuss Defense
 Meeting in the office of an attor- ney employed by Rebecca, the couple last night discussed the state charge that she drove her automobile to Buda, 20 miles from here, Saturday and displaying a pistol forced two bank employees into vault and es- caped with nearly s1,00o in cur rency. Rogers said he would ap' pear in district court today with his wife's counsel in an effort to secure her release on bond after a lower court yesterday refused a similar re quest on the ground the charge O. robbery with firearms was a capita offense.
 Rogers maintains that legal pre- cedent has established the necesslt. to prove shooting occurred durin@ the course of the robbery or othel circumstances of such import as tt warrant refusal of bail. If this ar gument fails, his wife must remain in jail until the February term O court.
 Mrs. Rogers has refused to discuss the details of her adventures 'betor' and after her arrest Saturday. Offl cers declared she told them sh' robbed the bank for a thrill anf that she thought the bankers were "saps" for allowing a girl to rof them. Asked to explain her denia of her marriage last night, she sait she believed that announcement should come from her husband.
 The hearing today is attracting wide attention as Rogers became we'll known in Texas for his forensic ability which won him a place or the university debeating team whicf defeated Dartmouth and Columbia last year.
