"Who Started Education"

In the eastern part of the world the
first records of schools are to be
found-among the Chaldeans, a race
that no longer exists, the ancient
Egyptians, who likewise have disap-
peared, the Hindus, and the Chinese.
All these Eastern people made their
religious teachings the heart of school
curriculum. Memory and initiation
were the processes used by the pupil.
The written sayings of the past had
to be learned with absolute accuracy.
There was not much of an education
al system until the time of written
languages. Few gained this mastery
of symbols, but through this long per-
iod of training, the institution that
secembles most exactly what we know
as the school arose. The chances are
that there never was any one person
of whom it could be said, "He start
ed education" Education is very like
ly a full cousin to "Topsy"-it "just
grew 1t has been given more and
more work to do and is spreading out
constantly.-Miss Burr.

The Story of Education in America

The story began with education in
pioneer days. The first means of
education was the Apprenticeship
System. In the early colonies, Sun
day Schools and Subscription schools
were started. The >monitorial Sys-
tenn grew during the years 1870 1910.
This systemn enabled schoolmaster,
with the aid of monitors, to care for
as many as 500 boys. The elements
of reading and writing were taught
in Dame schools which were similar
to our primary grades. During the
years 1825-1850 the excitment ran
high, but the struggles ended in fav-
or of the free schools. Benjamin
Franklin urged the establishment of
academies, but since these schools
were not free the poorer people
could not take advantage of higher
education. The doors of education
were open to girls in 1900. The first
High School was started in Boston
in 1921. 1t offered a three year
course for boys only. The most re-
cent step in education has been the
development Of the Junior High
school which gives the student a
broader viewpoint. The story of ed
ucation is very important one be-
cause it has brought about such ire
mendous results. Our systemn of ed
ucation today is the result of long
struggle from very lowly beginning
to it's present lofty position.-Miss
Denzel.

"Why Education Pays"

Education is often thought of as
paying financially, but we usually
reap mucch more paying benefits
namely in personally beneficial way.
Have you ever considered that 60
ing to school has much to do with
the size of the world you live in?
In other words, education gives us
contacts which we would otherwise
be limited to enjoy.
The seven purposes Of an education,
or reasons why education enlarges
our personal contacts, make for an
all-round general development. In
the first place the school believes that
the individual must have good health
learn how to care for the body.
Second, the individual must know how
to use the "tooP' subjects, reading,
writing and numbers. Third, educa-
ton prepares us for useful service,
developing US in a general way, in
English, literature, natural sciences,
social sciences, etc. Fourth, we get
training for proper home life. Fifth,
Education fits us for citizenship.
Sixth, we learn how to properly en-
joyjoy proper use of leisure. The
average individual has some 60-7O
hours weekly for leisure and he
should therefore discover means of
spending this time proftably. Sew
enth, education should develop a good
character. The individual should
learn to think and live right. He
should learn to despise cheapness,
deceit, dishonesty, meaness and cheat
ing.
Education raises the earning ability
of an Individual as revealed by the
following figures. The average life
earning of an individual whose ed
ucation consists of eighth grade
graduation was 900 in the United
States in 1920. The average life earn
ings of high school graduation was
$4,000 and of college graduate
$150,0OO. The Students time is there
fore worth $45 daily attending high
school, and 500 daily attending col
lege.
The average saving per person in
the five states having the best schools
was $378 annually, while those for the
five states having the poorest schools
was SAG annually.
After all, an education helps it
increase our happiness by charging
our opportunities and bringing us il
contact with more varied experiences

The poultry flock needs yard Of
its own and should not be allowed to
roam over the premises with cattle
and hogs. Fresh, sweet land is in
valuable for poultry, and the yard
should be large enough so that the
soil can be cultivated and sown to a
green crop. A good grass sward can
be maintained on fertile soil by hav-
ing from 220 to 260 square feet of
land per bird. More space necessary

Miss Jacobsen Speaks on Manners
We were favored by another of
the series of talks on "You and Your

ing the assembly period last Thurs
day. She chose as her subject "Man-
ners." In her talk she cited the in
fluence that good manners in early
life have on an Individual in later
life. AS for conduct and manners
in school, she pointed out five things
which we should remember: Pay
attention to what is going on in class,
learn to take responsibility, learn to
control your temper, take part in
recitations during the class period
and speak distinctly when reciting.
Every talk so far has prod very
successful as well as interesting. We
are certain that all the good points
brought out in these talks will make
a lasting impression upon US.

whenever it is possible
The contents of the first part Of
the talk circles about our conduct in
the assembly and in the classrooms
Our every action, our thoughts, and
our conduct, are reflected in commu-
nifty life. A satisfactory attitude
should be attained in the assembly.
Be considerable and do not waste your
time or the time of other people.
Being beneficial to the school, to
yourself, and to the community are
the things we are striving for.
We speak of spirit. Spirit in athle-
tics come into our minds Immediately.
The same spirit as is shown in
athletics should manifest itself in
school work. 1t is possible to do
some "cribbing," but one can't always
get by on the word of someone else.
In the long run the individual will
be sorry. If we always do our best,
no one will criticize us.
Unusually fine spirit showed up
during the basketball season both in
students and in the townspeople.
The game was lost in the tournament.
Nothing was said to the effect that,
"Oh well, it's no use. We have no
team or COACH" Why wasn't it said ?
The boys worked conscientiously all
through training. They were doing
their best. The spirit displayed
among the boys is only reflection of
the spirit of the school and town.
There is a proper dignity to every
proportion in our lives. Life will
be success if we always observe
this. We had one disappointment
