Babson Park, Mass, Oct. II -
Education Is the one industry in
which almost no improvement has
been made during the past so, or,
perhaps, 100 years. II is true that
better schoolhouses have been
built and the teachers are being
better paid. Whether or not these
teachers are as we'll succeeding In
winning the hearts and lettering
the lives OF their students is de.
batable. Certainly, the education.
al st-rtards have been declining,
while the educational expenses
have been increasing. For instance.
40 years ago the communities from
which | drew employees required
those who took the secretarial
course to type so words a minute
before graduating. This require.
ment has slowly been reduced SO
that today a girl can graduate from
secretarial course by doing IS
words a minute.
Schools Miss the Point
However, employers are not so
much interested In the words per
minute, which one can do, as in
the Thoughts per minute. The
subjects which are not being
taught in school are the important
subjects. AS result, most EN-.
ployers believe that education to-
day Is as backward as was the
electrical industry, 200 years ago,
in Franklin's day, when electricity
could be obtained only by flying
kite In the skies. School super.
intendents have yet to learn that
the important things Of life are the
unseen and splritual,-not class
recitations, written examinations
and memory tests.
With a set OF Encyclopedia Bri.
tannica on his desk, plus the ability
to read. write and hgure, the bust.
nessman has. for practical pur.
poses, all the information avail.
able to any college graduate. The
important question 10 whether he
has those intangible assets. such as
character. industry. initiative. cour.
age and persistence. These are
what our homes and schools should
teach.
Statistics and Education
have been able to get satisfac.
tory statistics on every industry
except the educational industry.
Therefore, | cannot prove that the
students receiving the highest
marks in school do not turn out TO
be the most useful an successful
citizens. Certainly. character. in.
dustry, initiative. courage and per.
sistence are of infinitely more value
than the ability to get high marks.
In fact, believs that those who
have these quail les will make a
success nj lie whether or not they
ever see the inside OF a college;
while youn~ people lacking these
qualities could never amount to
anything with a dozen PhDs.

Babson Predicts Change

it's a question OF inheritance and
