bueck guest speaker at andrews meet T opic Concerns Problems School Children Present to Parents At a meeting held at Andrews, Mr. H. Bueck made a speech in keeping with National Education Week. The meeting was held in the Methodist Church. Following is his short speech: The public is inclined to think of' education in terms of teachers and buildings?tne lax payer in terms of money?the politician in terms of patronage?We have given too little 1 thought to the curriculum. Our high j schools are a rescent offspring of the college preparatory academy and they still bear a very close resemblance to the parent institution. The subjects are largely the same and the method of teaching has not changed a great deal- Yet there has been a decided change in the student body. When the present high school building was erected in Murphy about ten years ago there were seventy high school -tudents. Today there arc five hundred and fifty?an increase of seven IHIiHflil DON'T waste any time on a wild gooseflesh chase for Winter comfort! Get yourself some HaNES Underwear today.

This growth is unusual but not phenominal. In Salisbury theie were thirtythree in the graduating class of 11)16. Last year there were over two hundred and fifty. Our high schools are rapidly being filled with students who are not looking for a college preparatory course, but for a course of study that will be an end within itself. There are five major institutions of learning. The home, The church, The State, Business and the School. Taking the functions of these institutions I in order; From the home we learn obedience to law and order. A large 1 portion of the child's life consists of do's and don'ts from the unquestionable authority?the parent- As the parents lay the foundation stones of respect for law and order?so we build for good government and a peaceful state?as they fail our jails are filled. From the Church, we learn to develop the aesthetic sense. It is to the religious institutions that we owe the development of ART. MUSIC, and the DRAMA. Through this medium we develop the inner man ?that thing we call the soul. You know as well as I how few of our children of high school age are being reached by the church today. FROM THE STATE we learn JUS-j TICE and fair dealings with our fel- 1 low man- Our courts are referred to | as temples of justice. Every man is arm-pits don't pull and bind, the crotch doesn't tighten and cut. You can reach, bend, and stoop?in comfort?

The symbol of the blind goddess holding the balance pans, represent an institution built on the wisdom of all the ages for the conduct of man with his fellow man. FROM BUSINESS we learn honesty. Our whole financial structure is built on trust and credit. It may be this hard school teaches us to be honest because that it the best policy nevertheless the training is invaluable. TO THE SCHOOLS falls the task of coordinating the efforts of these four institutions. As the state has assumed the responsibility of the school we have leaned more and more heavily upon it as a panacea for our task of training. There are four mediums of dissiminating information to the people. The Press, The Motion Picture, The Radio and The School. The policies of the press are determined largely by the vested interests which buy the advertisement that support it- The headlines must cater to the appetites of the subscribers if the papers and magazines are to be sold. No editor really wants to give over the major postion cf his publication to crime and sex. Commercially he must. The Motion Pictures are ruled by the box office. They have to give the people what they want and not necessarily what is good for them. The appeal to the elemental in man has been found to be profitable and therefore I exploited to the limit. THE RADIO is clean, nut no one 1 will deny that it is operated solely for profit. The programs must please whether they instruct or not. The .One Remaining Major Dispenser ol Information is the public school. It is a non.profit institution, only slightj Iy shackied by politics, but hide bound ' 1*.. 1X4 : * i* i? ??> iiituiLion, supcrcecleci on'y by the courts in the difficult of breaking preset* dent. The Responsibility of the public school is great, but no greater than it's oportunity. We must fit our curriculum to the students rathe: than try to fit all students to an arbitrary curriculum. A very small percent of our high school students are going n??r should go to college. To that snuili group that are financially and mentally able to pursue an educatior beyond the secondary school we owe a thorough technical and classical training, but to those students whose formal education will end with high school graduation?and this number is in the vast majority today?we owe a type of training that will more nearly fit them for the problems they will have daily. 1 have no quarrel with the study of Algebra, Latin, French, German, Geometry and Technical Science for those who have time to do that and more. Rut for the student who has a limited time in school these subjects are a waste of time compared to the wealth of practical and useful training that might be given. If a student has a choice of two opportunities?one to learn Latin and to learn to read a newspaper intelligently and a magazine for pleasure, in the name of common sense teach him that whicn he will do the rest of his life. The number of people who actualiy use Algebra and Geometry is indefinitely small compared to those *.vho do not. Yet we subject the majority of our secondary students to these subjects to the neglect of trailing in the initelligent use of leisure time.
