"Our
Growing Edge"
MRA MA1THA 0LoTFELTY
PURPOSES in Education


Behind all of our efforts in the
field of education, there are many
detectives. We need to define and
think about them, for they are very
important.
Here are some of the many
things, in my opinion, that an edu-
cation should do for us. In the field
of higher education, especially is
this true.
An education'S purposes are
To prepare young people for a
career.
TO teach a man how to think.
To make it possible for people
to get along with each other.
To enable person to look up
important information when he
needs it.
To develop good taste in the
things a person does outside his
job
To develop the kind of interests
and enthusiasm that will enable a
person to put his leisure time to
good use.
To teach person how to use the
English language proficiently.
To teach us how to listen
To develop spiritual and moral
values.
To enable people to run home
intelligently
To prepare young people for
bringing up children of their own
and for assuming family response
bility.
To know about human expert
ence and the course of history.
To teach us how to keep up with
the news, how to read newspaper
or magazine, how to appraise the
news, and how to tell which
columnists or commentators are
reliable
To be able to make moral judg-
ments.
To give a child a strong mind
and body
To develop to the fullest what
ever possibilities or potentialities
a human being may have
Our Universities, especially, have
task for they mold the future
leaders of our nation.
President Nathan NJ. Pussy. of
Harvard University, says. Uni
Versities are not the creatures of
modern industrial society-nurtured
in adventure, boldness and fresh
vision they have always recognized
at their best that their response
bility is not to minister to utility
but rather to call men to moral and
spiritual ana TO intellectual reSp0n-
sibility. 1t is only thus that they can
ever hope to serve the real needs
Of society-if the University does
not stand in some sense a critic of
society and force always calling
for fresh endeavor, it cannot be
the university
Another educator has said, "All
education must have as its central
objective the development of in
tellectual power. There is no substi-
tute for a mind which has a high
order of self-discipline This is the
kind of self-discipline which takes
hold of situations with magma
ton, confidence and enthusiasm
and proceeds by orderly, logical
reasoning processes to intelligent
solutions of the problem"
OF all the quotes l have read and
heard, l like this one the best.

Senior Pictures
Senior pictures were taken on
Monday, September II, by a repre-
sentative from Delmar Studios
whose branch office is in Silver
Spring.
The seniors really looked sharp,
especially the boys in their white
shirts, bow ties and dress suits.
1t was interesting to see how short
a time it took for them to shed
their jackets and ties and to roll
up their shirt sleeves after their
pictures were taken
Instead of the usual routine of
cheese" and peaches" the boys
were quite concerned when they
had to say, I'm a sissy The girls,
however, were delighted to say,
I'm a pretty girl. -
30th Anniversary
The first issue of the Acorn came
out Tuesday, September Is. This is
the thirtieth year of having a
printed Acorn 1t was interesting
President Dickey Of Dartmouth
college says, The American liber-
al arts college can find a signifi-
cant and unique mission in the
quality of its historic purpose; to
see men made whole in both com
petence and conscience.
What challenge for our schools
today is that last objective.

When it came time for a decision
of the Conwell family CMrs. Helenl
Master 'Dickie" the small fry who
rules the roost, came up with
''her's going to do just what her
wants to go to see Roy Rog-
ers."
Willie" Clark, the last one in
typesetters row and his wife ex-
pect to take off for Michigan to
fish.
Joe O'Connell who has worked
and planned to get the show on the
road, accomplished of course with
the excellent cooperation of his
helpers) hopes to relax a little
with his family.
Eddie Morgan who drives the big
press will go back to Illinois for a
time.
Then we have to commiserate
with Maurie Pernod and Raymond
Stuthard; they have to be at the
helm upstairs to get the race pro-
grams each day. Then what? who
knows, least of all Maurie and
Raymond they say.
And last, but by NO MEANS
LEAST there are George and his
good helpmate Louise Stoker, from
up Plain City way. They'll be TAX
ing off for Michigan for a visit
with some relatives and If George
doesn't get to wet his fishing line,
we don't want to be here when he
gets back, he'll be that mad.
That just about does it except
for the Office Cat who's still with
you. A swivel chair and handsome
maps galore just over her type
writer, she's in a constant state of
touring. She doesn't even have to
swivel her chair; just roll her eyes
to the right or left and there's a
complete layout of the world. The
easiest and cheapest way in the
world to get well rounded trip.
That does it for this year. See
you round. Until August 27, fare
thee well.

I'D shut my heart in box all
golden, and lock it up with sill
Yer chain" An audience of some
eighteen hundred people hears the
melody in the night, and the voice
itself its golden. Later in the eve
ming is heard chorus of Kentucky
young people joining in the old Ap-
palachian tune to How Firm a
Foundation; and the rollicking
"Goober Peas" of Civil War Days.
The occasion is the performance
of Paul Green's WILDERNESS
ROAD, at Berea, Kentucky. In an
outdoor theatre under the stars,
this new and magnificent drama
recreates the Kentucky of one hun
dred years ago. There are the bal
lads, the hymns and the marches,
the lively feet moving to the rhy-
thm of "Old Dan Tucker" There
is the organ setting a mood now
plaintive, now rich and triumphant,
now agonized. There are the bow
ties and calicoes, the log cabin and
the one room school, the mountain
people going their feuding, fidd-
ling, God-fearing ways. There is
war and victory and heartbreak,
and the routine of plain, everyday
living. And there is long wilder
ness road which has nothing to do
with Indians and bears, but which
is the road men travel toward
peace and understanding.
1t is great drama Mr.. Green
has written, and a great venture in
production on the part of Eerea
College. Opening last year to COM
memOrate Berea's hundredth an
niversary, it soon became clear
that this was no usual college pag-
cant, but drama of a high order.
From all over the country people
came, and found in it not only the
power to charm and delight, but
quality of idea and ideal which
makes it unforgetable. Audiences
totalled more than sixty-three
thousand. Members of the press
promoted it with a sense of person
al discovery. Berea Trustees, per-
haps inevitably, voted a second
season, to extend from June 30
through September /, 1856. For 1t
Mr.. Green was awarded the George
Washington medal of the Freedom
Foundation.
Berea? 1t lies on the first ridge
of the Cumberland Mountains look
ing out over the Kentucky Blue
grass area. 1t is easily accessible
on U. S. IS, between Cincinnati and
