McMillian is principal t Educational Edition (AN EDITORIAL) A number of years ago there was a song titled "Swinging to a Star." It had a lot of semingly silly words that rhymed at the end of sach line. Hie moral of the song, however, is a fitting way to Impress upon the “dropouts” the plight they stand to find themselves in fif teen years from now. This is our annual Educational Edition. There has much been said about automation and how machinery is replacing manual labor. The average child who drops out of school on the high school level is doing tw o risky thtngs: He is not only limiting his chances to demand a share of the Improved economic conditions that will be in vogue, but he is dimming his chances tr making a contribution to mankind. The one purpose for which si person should be bom into this world is to make it better by having lived in. We should like to look at the monetary side for the girl or boy who drops out of school, at the high sshool level or even the Junior college level, to say nothing about the elementary level. It is a natural order of life for one to grow up. fall in love and marry. The yearning of adolescence, under normal circumstances, is to have a home, chil dren and a reasonable amount of comforts for that home. The turn of events are orbiting so rapidly until it will not be long before any young man. with less than a college education can not properly provide for a family. It is almost here that any mother who cannot properly plan, arrange, budget, buy and understand the ac cepted method of home-making finds her children contributing to the pulling down of the moral fibre of the community. Certainly no mother or father wants to be so limiting in preparation until his or her children are declared a misfit In the community. One needs only to take a look at the Jobs that once were done by hand and called hard labor and notice the skill and science that now accompany these jobs. There were times when the mortar maker could put a bag of motar-mix. or lime into a batch of mot&r and count anywhere from 8 to 10 shovels of sand and would have a mix ture that would hold the brick intact for ages, or the plaster on the wbl’s for years and years. Those days are gone forever. One has to know the scientific contents of the material he is using, plus the pro portionate amount of water resistant properties and other kindred elements to prepare mortar for the buildings that are now being built. This means that one must know something about the chemical oontents of materials. This cannot be known if one has not had the experience of using a laboratory. This is just elementary. We are not going into the intricacies of higher mathematics one has to know to be able to design a tool, a machine, or a motor. If one would Just stop and see how materials are taken to the high buildings that are going all around, he would readily see that brawn is moving out and brain is being sought after. A common laborer will soon be measured from his neck up and not from his shoulder down. The highway examiners report that many young people are bl- Ing denied automobile driving license due to the fact that they are not able to give the right answers to Just ordinary queslons Their ability to think dwindle* when they are put under the slight pressure of an examination. — ■ The failure of so many young men to pa* the mental test re- 1 quired to go Into the army is a serious matter and should concern ' these young men to no small de gree. There was a time that one was taken Into the army without any education. They were assign ed to the labor batallion. The method of warfare has become so mechanized and scientific until It Is not a mattter of being able to stop the enemy, but whether one’s training will enable him to pro tect his own life from the highly mechanised equipment not being used. The different experiment* now being tried In practically every quarter of the globe makes it nec essary for one to have an educa tion In order to be a successful farmer. The dlfferenct deterrents to plant life and the many for mulas that are now being used on the farm applies almost like the example of mixing mortar Even a poultry farmer must know the potency of his feed In order to grow healthy chicks and develop hens that lay Grade-A eggs. These are all In the ralm of a college education now. We have tried to explore the take-home-pay that comes to one from ordinary exploits. There Is still the service to humanity that one bom In this world owes to hi* fellow man The greatest Incen tive one should have toward get ting an education should be to help one less fortunate that him self. Certainly this cannot be done to the best of one's ability with a mediocre education. Now to the point In question There are many reasons given as to why children drop out of school There are those parents who say "I did not go to school and X made It. I don’t see why my child can ■ not get bv like X did ” There are (CONTINUED ON PAGE 2) i V 4# -*S‘ SHI HP MS rfi si % 5‘ 2 2 2 W' TYHONf A HOPKINS STtty Part,am/ntas,a n cjt’ttrm an , L HoW '»j, e ™ f LUCY J STATON /Ty V -a- Will. - v CjrcLdLLCitmg Gloss of /964- . wumi >(1^1 .
