Sofcer-thinking men and women are S slowly opening their eyes to the fact 9 that (here must surely be something a wrong with our educational methods. 1 Why do they say something is 4 wrong? Because of the results athicv- g ed in the young manhood and wo- g manhood of today. Unless something || were wrong, better results would be B| cbtained That is a condition that can- s not be dodged. It is a fact staring the ?js American people in the face today. 9 Newspapers have always been in the g forefront advocating more schools and fp better schools. No proposition looking @ toward providing increased education- B al advantages for the boys and girls 5 failed to get the support of the news, g fapers of the country. But, we are B now beginning to hear from those E same newspapers, only a few yet, but g the voice of nrotest is cmdnsllv 3 swelling, and unless there is a change 5 of so*hie sort looking toward better R results, there will be a great volume ? of protest in a short while. Tliere is g a feeling, possibly produced Dy old- E time views and fogyism, that there g are too many frills on education and g not enough solid matter. In other [3 words, it-is-Jike some of the modern ^ dinners, a lot of style and show but ? little real food. There is not the irj- H tensive application to definite sub- g jects, but an apparent effort to cover p j a wide range, the . result being a ? j smattering knowledge gained by the = [pupils and no practical value acquir ed. The Asheville Citizen is one of those .j I newspapers which views with some j | alarm the tendency of modern school ing. It?'says: "We are supporting too much edu- i j catcd idleness On every hand, in front ] of every drug store are knots of | young men who have gone through ? their high school or college without ' learning how to earn a cent. Girls and ! boys who feel no desire to enter the ! ' professions should learn useful trades. Now too many of them drift through ? the scfcM and college terms pa*id for j| I by State and parents, informing all I who question them that they have no ^ idea what their life work will be. "Germany compels her young to 1 learn trades. If they are not plan ning to becetme lawyers, doctors or 1 artists, they are forced by law to develop themselves as carpenters, bricklayers, painters, tailors plumbers or. , eieciruians. svnci, wnunjvti mny be said of Germany, the fact remain* i that she is the wondeT of the aire when it comes to industrial skill and productivity per man. We can takej a leaf from her book. The actual corn-; pellinp of a youth to learn this- or? j that trade smacks too much of thoj . tyrannical for Omericans, but public _ opinion and the national r.aed crm fc? [ 7 made n powerful- force in rhrr direc-1 a? tioii." I It is also a ma.-Jer fcr p rents to handle. They have no vlght to let the State pay-for their child's education ; without. doing earerythir.jr in their power to shepv the rhlid the necessity of his prepariuij himself t ? Vc f. service to his country which ii also hi.* benefactor.
