 The speaker concluded his re- marks by stating none of this is possible without devoted and cal pablo teachers without these it would be useless to talk about goals because we would be unable to reach them
 MT. Schott spoke on the school system and goals of education from the educators point of view. He deplored the difference in sa- laries paid to football coaches and educators, and the placing of em- phasis on the ''frills' in educa- ton. Children are taught in rel sponse to public opinion" he said.
 A question and answer period followed the speeches..

 The aim of education is not to make our education ''lopsided' by inordinate stress on science and mathematics" He warned, how ever, against dragging our feet'' educationwise
 Johnson compared rigorous courses in Russia and European countries, and that in the United States. The Russians also take ten years instead of twelve to com plete their program but spend longer hours in school. Only the ablest students are able to com plete the york; he said. 'At one time a high school diploma in the United States meant certain mas ,tery of mathematics, foreign lan- guage, English, history and sci ence, but now it means merely 50 many years in school
 The first responsibility of our educational system is to develop the mind and secondarily to de- velop the body Moral training is primarily the responsibility of the church and home, but should be aided by the school.
 The main goal of education is that the youth gain wisdom, and

Mind Development ] Education 1 Goal,
 Says Dr. Johnson

Advancing the theory that in tcllectual training in schools is the goal of education, Dr. A. Holmes Johnson, president of the Alaska Association of School Boards, spoke before members of Rotary Club at their luncheon meeting Tuesday. The program was in the nature of an education al forum, with Ivor Schott also speaking to the group.
 Fortunately" Dr. Johnson said, There are educators who in- sist that teaching to reason is more important than learning to tap-dance-" The coming of ssSput- nix the speaker stated, has caus- ed . serious study to be made of education throughout the coun- try. The Progressives, Johnson stated, have insisted on mo com petition" among students, but ad- v'mcing all according to age, groups.

Spiritual Truths
 Cleaned From The News
 Contributed By
 Nome Gospel Home From: Good News Broadcaster' BILLY GRAHAM CRUSADE CONTINUES TO MAKE NEWS

The San Francisco Bay area has gone "all out'' for Dr. Billy Graham's crusade. At San Quen- tin Prison, 4,0OO inmates sprawled in the sun on their baseball dia- mond to hear Graham's message, then '657 ignored jeers and cat calls of their inmate buddies to come forward to Hive for God in prison"
 The response was labeled 'the largest percentage of converts ever to respond at an evangelistic service anywhere"
 Among the Graham sermon quotes carried by newspapers all across the land:
 we have hard time remem- bering anything. but God never forgets. He remembers the uni verse, our planet, and you. He remembers our sins, because the Bible says our sins will find us out. God can forget sin when it is covered by the blood of Christ"
 'sThe American people are being weighed in the balance as never before. God meas ures the things we don't do as well as those we do. To whom much is given much is required Never has a nation been blessed and prospered so nightly as America"
 ''The Bible predicts that some day a man from outer space will arrive on this planet. That man is Christ"
 "A Christian is a person who has made a choice; he has chosen Christ as his Lord and Saviour. !"
