Vidtrola XVI $255 Away back in pioneer days the leaders in affairs, educational, 1-add' the foundation of our public schcc! system. The first ,schools weren't \-er3 7 ornate, and the teachers had little training, judged by the present present standard of. qualifications. The three It's were considered to be quite sufficient--mental decoration wasn't at a premium--but- the pupils pupils were taught obedience and thoroughness, and many of our greatest men arose from those little obscure backwoods schools. As villages grew into towns and towns into. cities, tbs .ambition of educational leaders grew, with them, however. Teachers, became better qualified, new- subjects were added, and"' higher institutions were established until the. present complicated and complex system was evolved. And. the citizens, generally, were very pleased thereat, thereat, and prided themselves that they were wearing the -latest in educational educational fashions. Now, as the system developed a paradox developed with it. The average farmer, while respecting education and agreeing that it was ai very attractive decoration to have when it wasn't too expensive,, did not care to invest very heavily' in it himself . A feeling that farming farming couldn't be learned from books grew -so strongly that it became a trait of rural character. The system system might have been at fault, but the educated preferred to blame the farmer himself for these conditions. conditions. ' - "Was. there ever such a man !" they cried. "He is so bound to tradition and practice that he doesn't care for education. He will not develop the scientific view-- point, nor will he allow his children to do so. The majority of those who stay on the farm never attend high schBo-1 even.' He is satisfied with the. ' methods and "knowledge that were po sises before him." An Idea That Fell But the farmer had views of these matters most of his views, they were the re suit of hard experience. He didn't always advocate them where everyone everyone could hear them, but he realized realized none the less clearly certain things that his critics did not. We can imagine a shrewd, intelligent man addressing a lad fresh from school. "Mv fine fellow, you have gone through a process of absorption And have acquire cK^oonsider able mental trimming. / Yot/ can talk more correctly than I, you are vaguely familiar with a quantity 7 of/ historical dates and foreign rases, you can write a graceful essay, you have some aptitude for figures ; there are other things that you have that I know little about. So! are .you practical? Can you tell me anything about the soil or earth or clouds that will be of practical practical value to me ? What do yon know about trees, plants' and crops what will make them thrive, or w'hy they fall ? Can 3'on perform the operations of farming even as well as when you left" for schoc-l? Can 3 r o-u do practical calculations; have 3 7 ou a working knowledge of banking and yof the world's business business transactions ? bio ! You have not ? You were never shown these, only were told about- some of them vaguely and some net at all, vou say. "Now, there is m3 7 son Henry. He has not ha/d the schooling you have had. He -did not even -pas® t'he high school entrance ; but he was educated in the practical school of life. He is skilled in farm operations, is enthusiastic, aggressive, aggressive, quick in emergency, and strong. i n action. After all your education he has a better training in those things that make for successful successful farming than you have." Of course, the farmer saw the question from .only one angle. He didn t appreciate the joy of knowledge knowledge for the sake of knowledge,, and his ideal .m,a3 r have been too much the money ideal. But he was not far astray about the practical value of the' system.
