ministered by the state In those fields where
no questions Of social and political education
are involved few private institutions exist
Practically public education is open to all,
although where the demand is greater than
the facilities, discrimination is made in favor
of the working class
At the upper levels of the system, and at
the lower levels in the case of unfortunate
children education is not only free in the or
binary sense of the term but maintenance al
loWances are frequently provided.
Notwithstanding the severe economic con
ditions which have prevailed up to the pres
ent, the achievements. in the development of
a new educational system have been large.
The expenditures on education are now in ex-
cess Of the pre-war figure. In the year 1926
1926 elementary education was extended
about as widely as in 1914 while secondary,
vocational, professional, and higher educa~
tional professional and higher education
were much more widely extended
+ The greatest achievement of the revolution
thus far, however, is the development Of
thousands of additional institutions, such as
centers for iquidating illiteracy, schools for
adults, trade union schools, party schools, cot
tage reading rooms, workers and peasants
homes, and young peoples clubs
The curriculum of the lower schools is char
acteriZed by large emphasis on the social
studies, aimed to indoctrinate children with
the ideals and attitudes of collectivism. The
curriculum also emphasizes the methods and
findings of the natural sciences, with the aim
of developing in the children a definite ma
terialistic outlook
In the realm Of purely cultural interests,
such as language, literature, and art, racial
and national minOrites within each republic
are given an extreme measure of freedom but
in the realm of economic and political ideas
adherence to the generally accepted policies
of the i. S. S. R. is required. AS in every
other country, teacher is not permitted to
express in school ideas which are con.
trary to the principles on which the present
government is founded.
The social and political status of the teach
er has been improved but the absolute econ
omic status is not yet as good as it was be-
fore the revolution, though the relative status
lin comparison with other professions is bet.

dismissed or who have left the schools be.
cause of the revolution is certainly not more
than five per cent.
A strong effort is made to relate all instruc.
ton to the community, the state, and the
needs of the working class. Pupil participa,
ton in the government of the school is EN-.
phasized throughout the educational system
The educational authorities have mapped
out most ambitious program for the rapid
expansion of education during the next de.
cade. It is still largely on paper, because tbs
money to achieve it is inadequate, so. that its
fulfillment must wait upon the realization Oh
the economic program.

Do 1t Now, and Also Do 1t Next
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

lhomemaker has so many things to do
that the one of greatest significance
should be done rather than the one
that might occur to her first.
There are so many things of minor
Importance that might suggest them
selves. Indeed. it takes well or
dered mind not to find the lesser
rather than the greatest being accom-
plished unless discrimination Is used
when following the imperatively put
hint. The competent person. whether
her work pertains to the home or to
other things, is she who weeds out Of
a mass of duties just the right one to
do at a given time. To be diverted
from this by remembrance of some.
thing that would be well to "do now"
and to be diverted from planned duties
by a chance thought is far from pro-
ductive of successful accomplishment
Of important matters.
Sequence of Work.
The homemaker who feels the
urge to stop and straighten out box
or a bureau drawer when she dis
covers that ii is out of order, and
fails to remember at the same time
that the bread should so in the oven

is familiar to all of us. Do it now
means attention to the bread first Do
it next refers to fixing the box or
drawer Then the order of impor-
tance is presumed.
And so it is well to couple the idea
OF do it next with that of do it now,
and the sequence will work wonders.
Always when doing the thing of sig-
nificance the mind can be working on
the problem involved in the phrase
"do it next" When it's turn comes
and it is being done at the psycholo-
gical moment of now" there is al.
ways another matter that should slip
into the cog OF next" in the wheel of
time. 1t may be work or it may be
pleasure, but in this order of things
the sequence can be well followed.
Pleasures Included.
Do not forget that pleasures have
their place in the routine of events in
a day or a week, for unless we mingle
the two we shall find that life is duh
and we ourselves partake of the same
quality, since all work and no play
makes Jill weary homemaker
quite as much as 1t makes Jack
dull boy.

Peter Decides to Go Back.
Suspicion plants within the mind
Distrust and doubts OF every kind.
Old Mother Nature.

Peter Rabbit was badly upset. He
couldn't think of anything but the
handsome young rabbit he had heard
about and the fact that little Mrs.
Peter down in the dear Old Briar-
patch appeared to be getting along
very nicely without him. In short
Peter was jealous. He wouldn't have
admitted 1t. Goodness. no. But jeal-
ous people never will admit they are
jealous.
Peter looked disreputable. You see
he hadn't taken care of himself up
there In the Old Pasture. He had spent
40 much of his time running about
reckiessly and trying to forget little
Mrs. Peter that he had neglected his
personal appearance. But, then. Peter
never was one to spend great deal Of
time on his personal appearance. Pres
emily now Peter began to fix himself
up. There were burrs in his coat. He
bit those out. The fact Is, without
really admitting it to himself, Peter
was thinking about going back to the
dear Old Briar-patch.
It was true that little Mrs. Peter
had told him when he left that he
needn't come back, and Peter hadn't
intended to go back. No, sir, Peter
hadn't intended to go back. He had
said to himself that If Mrs. Peter
wouldn't come with him he never in.

things were different. At that time he

ALL SOUTHERN IS
LISTED ANON G
U. S. HIGHWAYS

The All-Southern, extending from
Savannah, Ca, to San Diego, Calf.
by way of FL Paso, Lordsburg, Doug
las, Bisbee and Tucson, has been
officially listed in the United States
system of highways, according to
information just received here. on
the governments highway map, the
All-Southern ds designated as route
No. 80.
The United States system of high .
ways is a synchronization of $4,000
miles of American motor routes. all
, interlocking and all uniformly
marked
Work on the designation of sys-
tenn of United States highways began
in February, 1925, when on the
recommendation of the American
Association of State Highway Off
cials, the secretary Of agriculture
appointed the joint board of inter-
state and federal highway officials
Suggested systems, submitted by all
of the states, were harmonized by
the board and report was made to
the secretary of agriculture.
In effect, the new system makes
national touring from coast to coast
as simple as going to Venice via
Washington boulevard. Road after
road, -crossing the country con-
meets section upon section in so
comprehensive a manner that a child
is able to select and follow without
difficulty the most enjoyable
and efficient route from one point
to another, no matter how far sep
arated.
Not only does the new system take
the .guesswork out of transcontin-
entail touring, but the compact unit
system of marking and highway
interconnection makes the main
tenance and development of even
better highways much easier task
than under the old hit and miss
regime in which each state was left
to route, direct and service it's own
share of national traffic.
