Your heart is the only and in A New Day Have you made the most of your talents in life? Have you been able to apply your knowledge? Well, you may not have done so, but if your child is a student in the Way nesville District schools, there will be no ex cuse for him, in the years to come, if he fails to do so. Knowledge and application should go hand in hand. They are closely related, yet re gardless of relationship, they are two defi nite and distinct achievements in the life of a person. Working in harmony they spell success. Knowledge is essential, but without the power of application it is a lost attribute in a world of practical living. It may serve as a pleasurable attainment, but unless backed by the power to act it is lost without having eerved its greatest purpose. Added to knowledge and application should be the ideal of what one wants out of life, and the blending of knowledge and application to develop the major talent with wihich nature has endowed one. To give youth the tools of education through the acquisition of knowledge, and then show him how to use those tools and at the same time point the way to his own use ful application of knowledge, has been, and is, the gravest problem of the conscientious teacher. The Waynesville District school is to have a program of vocational, educational and so cial guidance inaugurated into its system, that will give the individual pupil an oppor tunity to lind his talent and will be guided into the development of that natural gift. This new project strikes at the roots of education and will tend not only to help the student find his talent, but enable him to develop it. The new course-will make his school life into a definite goal and not merely a period of counting time. The community is to be congratulated on having a superintendent of schools who has a vision of such a comprehensive educational service. He has outlined for himself and his teachers a large task. They will have to get out of the old current and cut a new course across the fields of education as far as the usual public school is concerned. With science creating new avenues of in dustry, the demand for trained workers grows by leaps and bounds, until a well rounded education today means not only a background of general information, but preparation for jome special line of work, that will qualify the pupil to keep abreast of the times and be ready for the job that will be open to him later. There is an old saying that "we get out of life what we put into it." Certainly the per son who early gets a definite idea of what he wants, is usually the person, whom we often mistakenly call "Lucky." When in reality he ha3 been preparing for just the oppor tunity that has come. Had he not been ready he would not have been chosen. Mr. Bowles is asking the cooperation of the patrons of the school in the new venture in education. Parents can do much to supple ment the findings of the teachers in helping direct the lives of their children along the lines of their talents. We trust that the patrons of the District schools will give Mr. Bowles and his teachers a one hundred percent cooperation in making the success of the new program that will be reflected in the lives of the children in the citizens of tomorrow.

MORE PRACTICAL SCHOOLS A committee of educators has reported to the American Youth Commission that actual work ex perience should be made a part of high school curnculums. that courses in social studies should be expanded, instruction concerning personal problems be given and im proved methods of readme be taught. The committee believes that important needs of most of the b,oUu,OU0 boys and srirls in high schools of the United States are not being met but that the hopes fostered by much of the present system are doomed to dis appointment. ; It is true that the creat. hulk nf the opportunities oDen to vouth of high school education today is in more or less mechanized fiplHa nt employment. The inrir.pnn f child labor laws, wholesome as is their general effect, leaves count less youngsters eager for mean's of learning to do things with their nanas and to see how the world's work is done. Thus the coupling of high school training with useful occupations is desirable for many. Yet the emphasis on reading shows that the workbench cannot supply all or more than a moder ate share of a mechanic's life The amount of reading matter which is being hurled at everyone by the modern press in newspapers, mag azineSi and books calls fnr "M. and accuracy on the part of the reader. And the requirements of citizenship call for discernment in his use of the information he con sumes.

There has been a series of 'raises' in the last few year, which were in reality only partial restorations of drastic cuts in pay made in 1931 and 1933. Other State employes have long since had full restora tion of all pay cuts. There has never been any argument offered ior this discrimination except the argument of lack of funds. The State Treasury now shows a sub stantial surplus. There is even less justification than before, and there has never been any real just- mcation ior continuing the dis crimination. "The State School Commission Should submit to the next General Assembly a plan for to all the teachers of the State, regardless of race.
