IN Editoyial

IN ONE WEEK LAST May, the
United States patent office issued
961 new patents to American inven-
tors. In its approximately $50 years
of existence il has issued more than
100000 patents. The inventors are
just every day Americans like the
people we all know-housewive
business men, laborers, farmers, as
well as scientists, who have thought
up new idea.
One reason why so many Ameri-
cans invent things is because people
are encouraged to use their initia-
tive. Manufacturers are constantly
striving to make their products bet
ter and are always on the lookout for
newer and better ways of doing
things. Every convenient gadget
used about the house was somebody's
idea.
Mrs. Dorothy Houghton-national
president of the general federation of
women's clubs in her keynote adj
dress at the opening session of the
6Oth annual convention, said, .'The
hope for everlasting peace depends
ultimately upon the fabric of every
day decent living and women have
a tremendous responsibility"
ut is the women, the mothers in
the home and the teachers in the
school who transmit the basic idea,
attitudes, sense of values, moral
credos and understanding of what is
the American way of life"
Almost overwhelming when one
considers what such responsibility
involves. It is task which must
never be relented. Would that eyery
woman humbly and sincerely would
dedicate her life to such purpose.
This peace we all want won't come
easily, it's going to take a lot 8.

the kind of teachers they can admire
and respect.
If our schools of today can help
our children develop into truly use
full good American citizens, I feel
their job has been accomplished.
Subject matter is very important,
but it is secondary to the develop
ment of good sound character in our
voters of tomorrow. I am sure most
parents realize the schools cannot
do all this alone. We must be alert
to do our share when school hours
are over. Good basic training must
be primarily taught at home.
Freedom Of Teaching
Last spring / had the genuine
pleasure of hearing three young Ger
man teachers talk at our county
home demonstration council meet
ings in Dillon. These girls attended
the Western Montana College of
Education this last year. The young
est of the three was especially en-
thusiastic about our schools. She adj
mired the feeling of freenesss among
our teachers and their pupils in the
classroom. She said this friendly
feeling does not exist in the German
schools, and she is going to suggest
its introduction in the classrooms of
her native country when she returns
there. However, she was dubious Of
the result of that suggestion!
In a final appraisal of our educa-
tiona1 system of today I feel we dc
not need to be alarmed but rather
encouraged concerning the final out
come of our children's education
Perhaps a few too many extras are
being added to the city curriculums
but am confident our educators will
realize this eventually and improve
the situation. Perhaps more is to bt
desired in our children's education
but surely they are getting NOR,
than we did, and we realize those de
sired changes take time and effor
to accomplish.
After all, most of us have strong
faith in the good American stock W,
are rearing. If they are provided
good efficient teachers we are Ger
tain of their ability to acquire goo,
education for themselves in thi
wonderful land of ours. May Go,
bless it and them tool

Basic Training

In our children's first years of
their lives we parents want them to
have good basic training in reading,
writing and arithmetic. We hope the
rest of the subjects will then auto
matically fall in line. We want our
children to have belief and faith in
our Heavenly Father. We want them
to be taught the golden rule of doing
unto others as they would have
others do unto them. We want them
to have a sense of fair play in deal
ing with their classmates.
We desire them to learn honesty,
good citizenship, good discipline and
the courage to defend their own
ideals. We certainly want them to be
tolerant of others opinions and to
respect their elders. Very important,
too, we want our children to be
taught the value of good strong
bodies and the Importance of main
tanning good health. Last but not
least, we want our children to have

Gu. GzikLss : Education.
3 M9t Being Neglected


AST, BeaVerbead County
criticism of teaching primary chill
dren first to print and later to write,
the final outcome of that procedure
seems to be very satisfactory. In
general, the second of the three RS
is not being neglected Arithmetic"
the third ''R," is being given strong
emphasis, and I feel my children are
getting a good solid foundation in
that subject.
Correlation Of Subjects
The correlation of different sub
jects is a worthwhile advancement
in the teaching of subject matter.
The visual education our children are
getting from their moving picture
films in school is a wonderful adj
vantage in their education. It espe-
cially helps the slow child get an
insight into subject he might other
wise not be able to understand.
My criticism of the rural school is
that the seventh and eighth grade
pupils aren't given enough training
in manual training and home eco
nomics. They certainly are behind
their city cousins in these subjects
unless they are given special train
ing in them at home. Perhaps some
supervision of these subjects through
the county superintendent office
could be arranged. These subjects
are of vital Importance to older boys
and girls. They are given feeling
Of pride in their accomplishments in
these fields. The fundamentals of
music and art seem to be neglected In
most rural schools, also.
Are there too many extras in the
curriculum of our schools? In the
rural schools there are not. However,
Irealize some city mothers feel there
are too many. I have a friend who
formerly taught in Montana and is
now living in Kansas City, Mo. Il
bothered her last year when she
realized her young son was spending
so much time painting on mural
for his school room that his funda-
mental subjects were being neg.
lected. I am sure most mother:
would prefer their children be taught
the fundamentals first and that the
extras be filled in later if there il
time.
